A TRIP TO ROSEVILLE. 



Nineteen florists took advantage of a 

 free excursion to New Castle, Tuesday, 

 December -2. leaving Indianapolis at 

 8:30 a. m. About lialf way over Ed 

 Berteniiann got luuigry and seUishly ate 

 a whole sandwicli and waslied it down 

 with tlio thoughts of some wine that 

 A. Wiegand was to bring. 



Arriving at New Castle at 10:30. we 

 were taken around the city to a new piano 

 factory, where we were suj)|)osed to in- 

 vest in building lots. Well, none of us 

 were in the building mood, so we did 

 not invest. We were taken up to the 

 third floor of a new building about 400 

 feet long and saw some men putting the 

 fine polish on pianos. As we started 

 out, a man said, "Shut the door and 

 bar it." so we were forced to listen to 

 the bright prospects of Roseville. Final- 

 ly one of the boys saw a crack in the 

 door and started, and you know how 

 sheep do. 



^^"ben we got out we found a new 

 board walk which led towards the 

 South Park Floral Co.'s. We followed 

 that until they must have run out of 

 boards, tlien we followed another side- 

 walk, which was not cement, but we 

 did not mind that, for it was raining 

 anyway. Not all of us had umbrellas, 

 but Sidney Smith having arrived safely, 

 we were conducted by the Heller Bros, 

 through the immense range where noth- 

 ing but rosos are grown, and what a 

 sight. It looks as though they will 

 have to use a mower to cut the Beauties 

 for Xmas if Old Sol is anyways rea- 

 sonable. Golden Gate and Ivory, which 

 they think arc O. K.. arc looking fine, 

 also Brides and Maids. They grow one 

 bench of 5Ime. Ciisin and are well 

 pleased with results. Their new yellow 

 rose looks like a good one — clean foli- 

 age, free growth, and no bullheads like 

 Perle. 



At 12:45 we were ready for some- 

 thing to eat. As it was raining very 

 hard, the hotel people sent a hack and 

 bus to liaul us in. Seven of us packe<l 

 ourselves into the hack and thirteen 

 into the bus. Carl Sonnenschmidt was 

 one of the unluckv number, for he had 



Ids oveicoat stolen at the hotel. We 

 were late for dinner and were somewhat 

 unruly. E. B. and H. W. managed to get 

 served three times while jollying the 

 pretty waitresses. 



It being tiHi wet, we did not go to 

 Eeinberg & Weiland's or Benthey's, but 

 were conducted to a luxurious club 

 room where all had a good time, some 

 reading, some playing cards, others pool 

 or billiards. H. "W. thought he could 

 play pool, but ask Frank Harriott. At 

 4 p. m. we heard the train which was 

 to leave soon, so we hurried to the 

 depot, but before the train left. F. 

 Hukreidc amused a crow-d of villagers 

 with some funny stories which he did 

 not learn at Sunday school. We ar- 

 rived at Indianapolis at S p. m. Some 

 went to the monthly meeting, but most 

 of us went home. Billt. 



A BOWLING CUP.

 a photograph of the handsome sterling

 Rose Gardens Bowling Club, of James- 

 town. N. Y., by Mr. A. N. Broadhead. 

 Tlie ciip was won by the team represent- 

 ing the Rose Growers from the Carna- 



tionists after a hard fight. These two 

 teams, and probably a third one. made 

 up of other than rose and carnation men. 

 will resume the contest for the cup on 

 their own alleys about January 1.
