Thursday, May 27, 1965 TTTCMciiEjftfr'l^SlNf>feALER WONDER LAKE NEWS (expected to be present every day. MART LOU HARTOG 655-7176 Roy Noren Blue Ribbon Winner At the Bull Valley Garden Club flower show, which was held at the Bruhnke farm on Ridge Road Friday and Saturday of last week, Roy Noren --the Luther Burbank of North Drive -- again walked off with top honors for his African violets. Roy entered four of his beautiful plants and managed to take the top blue ribbon for each of them. He also entered an arrangement and took honorable mention oro that. I hope he left a few ribbons for the other entrants. Roy is past president of the Woodstock Men's Garden Club and has many blue ribbons to his credit. He is a master at raising African •• violets and has some of the most beautiful ^plants I have ever seen. I understand that it's not a "green thumb" that is the contributing factor in his success. It's the "soft lights and sweet music" in the growing room that makes for happy violets. Congratulations, Roy!
