^ Pall is with us. A little reflection at this time of leisure may prove very profitable 

 to us later. The old saying, '^In time of peace prepare for war," should b« applied to 

 business, only different Wording, which would be, "In dull times prepare for the rush sea- 

 son." Now you have time for afterthought and forethought. 



This year we have the finest line of Baskets, Xmas Wreaths and in fact everything 

 for the florist In the supply line that has ?ver been shown. Our men are out with a full 

 line, the prices of which are the usual Neidinger values, which almost every florist 

 knows to be the best on the market. 



We have made a practical study of florists' requirements of both new and old ideas 

 from a practical standpoint, not alone that the article is practical, but that the price is 

 reasonable, so that the florist can sell the goods in quantities. Don't fail to see our line 

 when our men are in your city. Am positive a visit will be of mutual benefit. 



For the florist whom our men might overlook, we shall publish a photo each consecu- 

 tive week of one of our basket numbers that is selling the best on the road, thus giving 

 every florist an opportunity of procuring the best quality for the least money ever offered.

The Florists' Club is to be represent- 

 ed this year by a bowling team of 

 picked men. An effort was made to 

 secure a place for this team on the Com- 

 mercial Duck Pin roster, but the appli- 

 cation was made too late. Through the 

 activity of Otto Schoeps, who is looking 

 out for the interests of the team, a place 

 was secured in the Mount Pleasant 

 Duck Pin League and the season will be 

 opened October 2, when the florists will 

 play the Park team at the New Arcade 

 alleys. The line-up at present is: George 

 C. Shaffer, Arthur Shaffer, Edward 

 Niedomanski, George Gouldman, Milton 

 Bedman and Otto Schoeps. Regular 

 nights for practice are to be selected 

 and it is urged that other florists turn 

 out to bowl with them or seek a place 

 on the team.
