DURING RECESS. 

 Florists Club of Washington. 

 At the October meeting of this Club 

 members were the guests of Edward 

 S. Schmid and after a meeting held in 

 the hall above Mr. Schmid's store the 

 evening was given over to an informal 

 program of music and fun. Charles 

 A. Stevens was master of ceremonies, 

 and with Milton J. Pillius and Mr. and 

 Mrs. Kidwell furnished lots of musical 

 fun. Fred H. Kramer also made a 

 hit. As the newly-arrived guests made 

 their appearance in the assembly room 

 they were put through the third de- 

 gree via. a chair electrically wired for 

 their benefit. Speeches were about as 

 welcome as the Emperor of Germany, 

 despite the fact that the latter would 

 probably have enjoyed the very tasty 

 repast, consisting of sauer kraut and 

 all that is good that goes with it. furn- 

 ished by the host. 



NEW YORK. 



The New York Florists" Club an- 

 nounce that they will hold Ladies'

 11 o'clock. Philip F. Kessler, chair 

 man of the house committee, is at the 

 helm and has a free hand. "Nuff 

 said." 



Members of the New York Florists 

 Club — not a large but a very select 

 party, journeyed to South Orange on 

 Monday afternoon. October 8, to view 

 the new and very sensational dahlia 

 Mandaiana at the nurseries of W. A, 

 Manda. The impression was unanl 

 mous that this new break marks a 

 distinct advancement in the dahlia as 

 a florists' cut flower. The visitors 

 were hospitably entertained in char- 

 acteristic Manda style.
