The Weekly Florists^ Review. 



Decembeu it, 1903. 



OMAHA. 



The past week, compared to tlie previ- 

 ous ones, was somewhat quiet. The cause 

 was probably the indifferent weather, 

 one day rather warm but cloudy, the 

 next day the thermometer registers 

 zero, and surely such weather is not r 

 trade producer. 



The monthly meeting of the Nebra-sk.i 

 Florists' Society was called to order by 

 President J. J. Hess on December 10. 

 After the minutes of previous meeting 

 were read and approved the chair was 

 turned over to President-elect S. R. 

 Falconer. There seemed to be a new 

 life injected into the society, two new 

 members were elected with two es-meni- 

 bers re-instated. It is hoped by all that 

 such interest may keep up. Owing to 

 the lateness of the hour but one game 

 of tenpius was rolled. Sides chosen by 

 Hess and Bath, of five men each, were 

 pitted against each other. Through the 

 excellent work of Ellsworth on the heme 

 stretch, Bath and his braves won out 

 by thirteen pins. After the holidays n 

 bowling meet will probably be held each 

 week. B.
