WASHINGTON NOTES. 



The formal opening of the Washing- 

 ton branch of the S. S. Pennock-Mee- 

 han Company took place on November 

 21, in the new building recently erect- 

 ed for the firm. Invitations had been 

 sent out to all the local growers and 

 retailers and about 200 people called 

 during the evening to pay their re- 

 spects. Music was furnished by a 

 string orchestra hidden behind a 

 screen of palms and ferns, and by 

 novelty xylophone performers. There 

 was an exceptionally fine display of 

 orchids, carnations, roses and chrys- 

 anthemums. At the rear of the store 

 a table had been spread with good 

 things and the, guests were served by 

 caterers. Messrs. Edward J. Fancourt, 

 Charles E. Meehan and W. E. Mc- 

 Kissick were assisted in receiving the 

 guests by Mrs. McKissick and Miss 

 Minnie Shea and Mr. Edward Bowers 

 and Messrs. Walter Hengle, O. A. C. 

 Oemhler and W. J. Schattmeyer aided

 enumerate those present would neces- 

 sitate mentioning the name of every 

 florist of Washington and vicinity who 

 was in the city that day, for nearly 

 everyone was there. 



During the week preceding Thanks- 

 giving Day, cards bearing the phrase, 

 "Your Thanksgiving Day will not be 

 complete without flowers," appeared 

 in all the store windows and at the 

 market stands, being the first step in 

 the publicity campaign of the Florists'
