THE INDIA RUBBER WORLD

A RUBBEH DISPLAY AT THE FLOWER SHOW. 



The flower show held from April Sth to the 13th, at the Grand 

 Central Palace, in New York City, was an unqualified success, 

 and it deserved to be. There was one feature of particular in- 



A I'KKi.nLA Made ov "Keveru" Hose. 



terest t'l rubber men. and that was the cxliibit of the Revere 

 Rubber Co.. which showed how a commercial display could be 

 made to appear in perfect harmony with an exceptionally artistic 

 environment. Generally speaking, the show was a vast bower 

 of bloom and blossom ; while the Revere Rubber Co.'s exhibit 

 was an exploitation of garden hose, but so exploited that there 

 was no sense of incongruity. On the contrary, the hose exhibit 

 seemed a very natural feature of the flower show. 



The exhibit consisted of a pergola about 12 feet wide and 10 

 or 12 feet deep, the posts and cross-pieces being wrapped in 

 "Revero" hose, while between the posts stood rubber plants and 

 around the cross-pieces twined southern smilax. Eight thousand 

 feet of hose were used in the construction of this artistic booth. 

 An additional feature standing just outside of the pergola was 



A Six Foot Reel ok Hose, C'o.vtaining .\ Miniati.re G.\8den. 



a large reel of hose, of polished oak, 6 feel in diameter, and 

 large enough to accommodate 6,000 feet of hose. In the center of 

 the reel, covered by glass, was a miniature garden scene, show- 



ing flow-er beds and shrubbery and a garage in the background, 

 while in the foreground stood a miniature gardener spraying the 

 flower beds with real water from a diminutive hose. This ex- 

 hibit attracted a great deal of attention — notwithstanding the 

 riot of floral beauty, including priceless roses and $25,000 orchids, 

 that surrounded it.
