THE FLOWER SHOW

PRESIDENT'S APPEAL TO

KOWLOON

MÈS. SOUTHORN "PASSIVE"

At the distribution of prizes at the annut show of flowers and vegetables held by the Hong Kong Horticultural Society at Volunteer Headquarters yesterday, Mr. Họ Leung (the President) and he supposed they might congratulate themselves on having staged another fine show. It was most gratifying to see a greater number of exhibi- tors from The Poak.

He would say, however, that he was disappointed by the poor aup- port from the Lower Levels and Kowloon. There must be, he said, "at least 200 dr 300 gardens at Kowloon Tong and Homuntin and Fit was a great pity that they had not received support from that quarter.

He appealed to the residents of Kowloon to take A greater in- terest in the show next year, and, stated that perhaps the Society would arrange suitable transporta- tion in future.

Thanks to Exhibitors
