    Of the many interesting exhibits of the county fair, perhaps none afforded more pleasure than the flower show, which was sponsored by the Warsaw Garden Club.

The committee in charge consisted of Frank Patton, Russell Knepp, Mrs. Melvin Barr and Mrs. J.W. Scott. They were assisted by members of the club and by Kenneth Lindsey, president of the club. As the exhibit closed, bouquets of flowers were made up for the two local hospitals and all the Warsaw churches.
