THOSE LOCAL SALES Conducting an enquiry into the reason why residents of the Lake- shore area continue to make the trek into Toronto to shop the big stores. The Advertiser of New Toronto came up with this as one of the reasons. “Too often neighâ€" borly service" turns out to be “nosey service”. Therefore. conâ€" tinues the editorial. “To play safe, store proprietors and clerks might be wise to go overboard on the folksey touch." While it was authoritlvely noted. that the quality of the blooms were not up to last years‘ stand- ard, the show as a whole was most colourful. with the different var- ieties of tulips. the gorgeous pan- icles of lilacs which perfumed the Hall, and the artistic arrange- ments of all kinds of flowers. To tiptoe through the tulips. was a pleasant pastime for the members and friends of the local Society, at the Tulip Show, in the Lions Community Hall, last Wed- nesday evening.
