dressing the retiring president, pre- 

 sented him with a beautiful silver lov- 

 ing cup on behalf of the members in 

 tolven of their love and esteem for 

 their old friend and long-time devoted 

 official. Mr. MacRorie was taken com- 

 pletel.v by surprise, but managed to 

 voice in a few words his grateful ap- 

 preciation of the gift. 



Speeches were then in order, as re- 

 freshments were passed around. Rev. 

 L. H. Lightipe spoke eloquent words 

 of welcome to the visitors. Wm. Duck- 

 ham responded warmly tor the Madi- 

 son visitors and asked for support and 

 co-operation in the great exhibition to 

 he held at Morristown next fall, for 

 which already premiums to the amount 

 of $2,500 have been subscribed. C. H. 

 Totty told stories, J. Austin Shaw dis- 

 pensed compliments and epigrams in 

 blank verse, W. J. Stewart spoke for 

 the orchid show to be held next May 

 and the national show in March of 

 the next year at Boston, and said that 

 New Jersey would be indispensable to 

 the success of any orchid show, wher- 

 ever held in this country. A. P. Faulk- 

 ner made a concise and most appro- 

 priate little speech. Ed. Reagan spoke 

 for the Morris County Florists' and 

 Gardeners' Society, and proved to be 

 a most interesting talker. A. H. Seeker 

 sang a song, and George Smith, on 

 request, contributed "The Tinkler's 

 Weddin' O." Interspersed were songs 

 and monologues by clever entertainers. 

 And the snow snowed on but nobody 

 cared.
