The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



FEBRUARY 17. 1S9S. 



GRAND RAPIDS, MICH. 



Banquet. 



The third annual hanquet of the 

 Grand Rapids Florists' Cluh was held 

 at the Eagle Hotel Feb. 1 and was the 

 most successful yet held. In spite of 

 the fact of its being zero weather, 

 there was a full board, and considering 

 the happy "guess I've had enough" ex- 

 pression, woin by all. the affair was in- 

 deed a gastronomic success, of which 

 Deacon Johnson might well feel proud. 

 Ovn- worthy president, N. B. Stover, 

 passed round the dessert in the shape 

 of a brief history of the club since its 

 organization on March 19. 1S95. The 

 program consisted of recitations, songs 

 and piano solos, and was carried out 

 without a hitch, reflecting great cred.t 

 on the committee of arrangements. 

 William Cunningham. .1. A. Creelman 

 and Eli Cross. The next meeting will 

 be held Tuesday afternoon, Feb. 15. at 

 Alfred Hannah's, on East street, near 

 Burton avenue. The florists will go 

 early so as to inspect the greenhouses 

 before meeting. 



PEKIN, ILL. 



At a recent wedding in one of the 

 handsome residences of our city the 

 floral decorations were much more 

 elaborate than usual. Smilax was used 

 in abundance, and the roses. Brides 

 and Maids of the celebrated exhibition 

 stock, lately grown under the super- 

 vision of Mr. J. A. Nelson, manager of 

 Geo. A. Kuhl's plant, were by long odds 

 the finest ever seen by the guests from 

 home or abroad. P.
