BULLS

ANNUAL FLOWER SHOW The annual flower show, under the auspices of St. Andrew’s and St. Martin’s Churches, held in Bulls Town Hall, was a great success. The number of exhibits were well up to the average, and the judges found it hard to adjudicate amongst such a number of even competitors. Miss O. Levett, the hard-working honorary secretary, had everything working smoothly, and both the afternoon and evening sessions were well attended. All the helpers worked well, and good business resulted. Exhibitors were present from all parts of the district, and the show was equal to any seen here tor many years. Following is the prize list: - Pot Plants. Maidenhair Fern.— Mrs. F. A. Holland 1.
