NOTES FROM THE WANGANUI BRANCH
On the second Thursday in August Miss Betty Fletcher showed slides of her trip through the Milford Track. On Saturday, 13th August, a party went up to inspect the regeneration along the Ohakune Mountain Road and in the 2828 Block. Activities in September were concentrated on our exhibit in the National Daffodil Show, a replica of Kapiti Island complete with hills, bush, birds, lagoon, , and sea shore. It created a great deal of interest and won a coveted Bronze Medal of the Royal Horticultural Society. On Bth October a large party visited Dawson Falls and explored the bush clad slopes of Mt. Egmont. On 13th Mr. Neil Simpson showed us some of the slides he has taken on tramping trips. The flower studies in particular made us realise how much is passed by unobserved.
