FLORISTS' TELEGRAPH DE- 

 LIVERY. 



In acknowledging my worthy suc- 

 cessor, W. F. Gude of Washington, D. 

 C. as president of the Florists' Tele- 

 grapli Delivery. I feel that there are 

 some statements pertinent to this 

 organization due the members and 

 past officials. 



It has been my pleasure lo see this 

 organization grow from nothing to 

 three hundred and sixty members, 

 consisting mainly of the best retailers 

 in the country: also to have this or- 

 ganization advanced from three hun- 

 dred dollars in arrears in the guaran- 

 tee fund to approximately six thous- 

 and dollars gross balance. The an- 

 nual business transacted by the mem- 

 bers of this organization is estimated 

 at well over a million dollars per year. 

 This wonderful growth has been due 

 in part to the untiring efforts of 

 several of the members, particularly 

 Philip Breitmeyer of Detroit, Paul 

 Schulz of Louisville, Geo, E. M. 

 Stumpp of New York, W. J. Smyth of 

 Chicago, W. J. Palmer of Buffalo 

 and numerous others. The officers 

 and directors of the Association have 

 worked untiringly and have given 

 their time and money to promote this 

 organization's welfare. There has 

 never been a misunderstanding among 

 any of them and on the whole, pro- 

 gress has been one of harmony and 

 general upbuilding. I wish to pay 

 particular tribute to the untiring 

 efforts of Secretary Pochelon and 

 Treasurer W. L. Rock, whose work is 

 scarcely appreciated as yet. The ad- 

 journed meeting in Chicago, Oct. 11th 

 and 12th will undoubtedly be well at- 

 tended and a source of much benefit 

 to the whole flower profession and 

 plans are under way which will be of 

 decided value in the sale and promo- 

 tion of flowers throughout the country. 



I wish again to thank all those 

 who have been instrumental in the 

 success of the Florists' Telegraph De- 

 livery, not forgetting the trade press. 

 Irwi.v Berteioiann, 

 Past President.
