Last week this column told you that the children‘s gardens in the new Queenslea Park would be judged this week so we will give you the results. Mr. Lumis, who is a horticulturist for North York, very kindly.came out to the park last â€" Wednesday _ evening and judged the gardens.

Altoâ€" gether the afternoon was a great success and we hope to see many more of our young people enter the gardening competition next year. At the close of the afterâ€" noon‘s activities the junior and senior groups each made a bouâ€" \ quet of flowers picked from their | plots. The junior group took their bouquet to Mrs. G. L.
