Garden clubs are entertained The South Carolina National Bank entertained the Nosegay Garden Club and the Garden Study Club with a workshop and luncheon on Thursday, Septem ber 11 at the Community Hall from 10 a.rn. until 4 p.m. A beautiful arrangement of roses was furnished for the head table by Mrs. Van Oxner and Mrs. J. E. Smith. The roses were from the Oxner and Smith rose gardens. Mrs. L. Hart Jordan introduc ed Mrs. Howard J. Lester of Columbia, who instructed the class in creating modern de signs in flower arranging. Mrs. Lester dealt in abstract and free style arrangements. Abstract designs should look good from all sides; should be off the ground; and should have simplest form, emphasizing cre ativity, space, movement and elimination of detail. Free style and abstract finds its own place in space. Lines, forms, colors, textures are ap preciated for their own value. Creative design, objects placed apart from each other force ex erted on the eye, is balanced so that interest is equal. Solids must be proportioned to those of the spaces and used to streng then the three dimensional ef fect. Scale often seems exagger ated in abstract but accords with concept of equality. Sim plicity and boldness keep from clutter. Dynamic balance thru’ attraction of opposite and likes. Free style means being styl ed outside of geometric pattern. Mrs. Lester had members of the clubs make arrangements to be evaluated. Mrs. Anna Monroe, Assistant Cashier of the South Carolina National Bank, participated in the workshop. W. J. Raffield, SCN Vice-President, joined the group for lunch. Mrs. B. E. Eader, president of Nosegay Club, presided. Gives report on beautification The following is a report by James D.

A few washed the windows outside and did a good job of cleaning in side. The lawns were reseeded in some instances and fertilized in others. A few were able to get some topsoil while one or two got treated driveways or parking areas. Some did rather exceptional jobs such as rearranging and repainting their playground eq uipment, setting up hot houses and growing plants for students and school use, painting and modernizing certain parts of their buildings and classrooms and erecting feeding stands, and bird baths. A few schools planted trees and tulip beds and at least one had as its project the collecting of bottles. Many did not get to do all they planned but they were ad vised that another report would probably be called for in De cember. One school had good results showing the films ‘‘Lit ter Bug” and ‘‘Problems of Lit ter”.
