Laughlin, wliose thorough knowledg'j 

 oC trade conditions, combined with a 

 rare literary gift, has earned for him 

 the reputation of laeing one of the 

 most versatile writers upon subjects 

 of interest to florists. 



"About seven years ago the Fried- 

 ley Co., with the late Frank R. Fried- 

 ley at the helm, acquired the property 

 and greenhouses of the Eadie Co 

 Upon Mr. Friedley's death last year 

 Herman P. Knoble became the presi- 

 dent of the concern, and under his 

 management the future of this busi- 

 ness seems exceedingly bright. 



"On the shore of Lake Erie, where 

 upon spacious ground now stands the 

 imposing residence of Mrs. J. M. Gas- 

 ser, the late J. M. Gasser established 

 a small greenhouse plant many years 

 ago. Those of the older members of 

 the S. A. F. who attended the conven- 

 tion at Cleveland in 1896 will recol- 

 lect with pleasure the generous hos- 

 pitality of Mr. Gasser at that time, as 

 a reception at the greenhouses was 

 one of the long-to-be-reraembered 

 events of the convention. Little did 

 Mr. Gasser think when building his 

 unpretentious Lakeside establish- 

 ment that the foundations were be- 

 ing laid for a business which, in the 

 years to come, was to expand to the 

 proportions which it has now at- 

 tained. The greenhouses were later 

 moved to their present Rocky River 

 situation, and extended to comprise 

 about 400,000 ft. of glass, including 

 a recently constructed L & B rose 

 house. 



".Among pioneer florists of Cleve- 

 land whose names are still connected 

 with a thriving business, are Adam 

 Graham, Herman A. Hart and the 

 late F. W. Zeichmann. It was about 

 40 years ago that these fathers of 

 the trade began to blaze for the flor- 

 ists' industry in Cleveland, the trail 

 which has long since become for 

 many of the wayfarers who have fol- 

 loweil in their steps a highroad to 

 success. 



"For a generation, no worker in 

 florists' circles has been more faith- 

 ful and energetic than Herman A. 

 Hart. Personifying geniality and 

 courtesy Mr. Hart has always ex- 

 erted his efforts toward the advance- 

 ment of the profession. A regular 

 attendant at the meetings of the 

 Cleveland Florists' Club since its in- 

 ception, he has been a moving spirit 

 in all of the club's activities, cheer- 

 fully accepting the many responsibili- 

 ties which have been his. Like has 

 begotten like, and the kindly spirit 

 which he has always manifested to- 

 ward others is returning to him mul- 

 tiplied to make glad the passing 

 years."
