a bunch as that is not easy to arrange, 

 yet at a glance one could see that it 

 was the work of an artist. This also 

 was the case with the hundred or more 

 bunches and designs. There was not 

 a piece in the whole lot that was not 

 a credit to the one who designed it. 



Various Notes. 



Many of the boys took advantage of 

 the opportunity to see ^he two big 

 eastern shows. Mr. and Mrs. W. J. 

 Johnson and their daughter, of West 

 Madison street, went to New York and, 

 after doing the show there, stopped at 

 Philadelphia for the rose show on their 

 return. E. A. Seidewitz told me he 

 was going to New York, and I. H. Moss 

 said he would be there if he could get 

 away. 



I certainly owe an apology to E. A. 

 Seidewitz. In a recent letter giving 

 a brief history of the Florists' Ex- 

 change, I said that during the life of 

 the exchange it had but three presi- 

 dents. This was an error, for, being 

 ' the chairman of the committee that 

 first launched the project, no one

worked harder for its success. He also 

 served several times as its president. 



Eobert Johnston, son of Mary Pater- 

 son Johnston, was quite proud of his 

 window in honor of Ireland's patron 

 saint, and justly. I saw it after it had 

 been partly taken to pieces, and it was 

 a creditable piece of work. My advice 

 is: "Go to it, Eobert, for there is no 

 better place to master the art of dec- 

 orating than right in your own window. 

 It is like music; you may have it in 

 you, but those who are masters will 

 tell you that it is the hardest kind of 

 daily practice that brings perfection." 



I am beginning to find that writing 

 for The Review is more of a pleasure 

 than a labor, for it brings me into con-
