MANY BEAUTIFUL BLOOMS ARE SHOWN • i [Continued from First Page.] engaged in selecting the win ning blooms. Hundreds of other beautiful blooms are on exhibition. The Judges are: Miss Bess Trump and Hi Riebe, of the Berryhill nur series; Charles Uttley, florist; Mrs. Margaret Cumbler, of Highspire, and Mrs. S. F. Dunkle. Awards are being made for the following exhibits: Best general dis play of roses, best individual speci men blooms, tea, hybrid tea, or hy brid perpetual roses, best roses of climbing variety, three red roses, three white roses and three pink roses. Blue, red and yellow ribbons will be awarded as first, second and third prizes in the different classes. Two memberships in the American Rose Society will be given—one of the best general display and the other for the best specimen bloom. These memberships are the gifts of J. Hor ace McFarland and the Berryhill nursery. • Entries for the exhibit closed promptly at 1 o'clock with some two hundred roses in their vases. These exhibits, together with the flowers, ] roses and others, exhibited by pro fessional nurserymen of Harrisburg. in their -white, pink, deep scarlet and blue splendor, scattered throughout the lobby, presented a gorgeous ap pearance. Just enough green-leafed plants were displayed to sufficiently diversify the exhibits. With many rose bushes past the blooming stage as a result of the early spring weather and in view of the fact that this is the first rose etftiibitian ever held In Harrisburg, the committees In charge of tfye 'two day show feel that the first annual Harrisburg Rose Show will be recorded as a success. Gardens of many rose growers throughout the city and surround ing territory contributed their share to make the event a success. While some rose lover with but few bushes contributed probably nly a single specimen, other growers with larger space for the cultivation of the "queen of flowers" contributed doz ens of blooms. All of the exhibits that are being judged for prizes were those produced by amateurs for this event is for amateur blooms alone. No flowers of nurserymen, florists or their employes were accepted for prizes. More than a score of varieties of roses contributed their share in mak ing the lobby of the Y. M. C. A. a literal bower of fragrance. But professional nurserymen and florists of Harrisburg, while their en tries were barred from entry* for prizes, made exhibits and lent every effort to make the amateur show a success. Their exhibits were es pecially valuable in producing such a pleasing appearance. The exhibit of the Berryhill nursery, especially the handsome floral mantle decora tion. was Quite pleasing. The especially rare varieties of plants were among the exhibits of the professional ' nurseries. The Berryhill concern showed a flower ing mullen, technically a member of ! the Verbascum family. This particu lar variety, the Kllen Willmot* named after the daughter of an En clish nurseryman, was grown in Har risburg. or in fact in Central Penn sylvania, for the first time this year. Only a few other nurseries in the United States produce this flower. The plants are especially hard and grow to the height of six feet. The Incarvillia Delawayl, with no common name as yet, Is another plant grown in Harrisburg for the : first time this year. Its seed was im- I ported from Germany. The leaves of the plant are of the fern type with the .flowers resembling the rich pink Gloxinia. The Nete Philadelphia, a mock orange Imported from China, anfl the N Corinella, are two other varieties of plants being produced for the first time here this year. This show, which is being held under the auspices of the Woman's Advisory Board of the Y. M. C. A., is being helcj. for the benefit of the war work of the Y. M. C. A. A nominal admission fee is being charged each visitor. All of the blooms that are * in satisfactory condition at the conclusion of the show will be sent to the several Har risburg hospitals to cheer the pa tients of the institutions. The show will close to-night at 8 I o'clock. ToJmorrow it will be open from 10 a. m. to 9 p. m. SCHWAB ASSERTS SHIPYARDS ARE TO RACE BRITAIN Tells Hog Island Engineers Progress Will Make the World "Sit Up" < , Philadelphia, June 7.—Great Bri tain and the Emergency Fleet Cor poration will virtually conduct an in ternational race to see who will put the greatest number of new ships on the seas the coming year. To equal ize the struggle which is coming, the 1 United Kingdom has Just authorized ■ the construction of twelve yards, with I 100 ways, to meet the problem. This is the gist of the message which Charles M. Schwab, the master shipbuilder, gave to the "Pull-To gether" Club of Hog Island engi eers, affiliated with the American International Shipbuilding Corpora tion ,at the Adelphia last night. "I received this news from Great Britain by cable to-day," continued Mr. Schwab, "and I've just got sport ing blood enough to want to see Hog Island and the other yards lick our greatest Ally, who Is our dearest rival in this shipbuilding contest. Will Make World Sit Up "And when Hog Island gets run ning I know that it will make the whole world sit up and take notice. Yt>u know there has been much criti cism of Hog Island, and I often think it came from fellows who were heed less. Usually the fellow who does the most criticising has the idea in mind, I often think, that he wants you to think he is a hell of a fel low." Mr. Schwab, after assuring his hearers that there wasn't anything gettable that he would not try to obtain for Hog Island, told of a con ference he had with Secretary Dan iels, of the Navy Department, on Wednesday. Mr. Schwab said: "I told him that he ought to give us those two big turbine factories and plants at Buffalo, and that if we had them we could go ahead pretty confident that everything was lovely for us. The Secretary told me that if I sent along my engineers to-day— and they have been down there all • LEMON JUICE I TAKES OFF TAN j Girls!
