A Question of Judgment. 



There was one point of more than 

 ordinary moment that came up for con- 

 sideration in the secretary's room in 

 Horticultural hall last week. The 

 Pennsylvania Horticultural Society had 

 generously offered the use of Horticul- 

 tural hall free of cost. The hall con- 

 tains about 16,000 square feet of floor 

 space on two floors. Perhaps one-sixth 

 of this space the P. H. S. wished re- 

 served for its own spring bulb show. 

 The First Regiment armory, on the 

 other hand, would cost $1,000 rental 

 for a four days' show, with additional 

 charges of perhaps $200— $1,200 in all. 

 The armory has a floor space of over 

 21,000 square feet, all on one floor. 



After careful deliberation the armory 

 was chosen for the scene of the Amer- 

 ican Rose Society's first show on its 

 own account, because it was believed 

 Horticultural hall would prove too 

 small. Besides its other advantages, 

 the armory contains seating space for 

 600 persons. 



Various Notes. 



Miss Irene A. Jackson became the 

 bride of Edward J. Aschmann Novem- 

 ber 29. Mr. Aschmann is the son of 

 John Godfrey Aschmann. He is en- 

 gaged in business with his father. 



Recent visitors included Benjamin 

 Hammond, of Beacon, N. Y.; Harry O. 

 May, of Summit, N. J., and Robert 

 Pyle, of West Grove, Pa. 



Elmer W, Gaehring, the successful 

 Frankford avenue retail florist, won the 

 Michell cup for bringing in the largest 

 number of new members to the Flo- 

 rists' Club in a twelvemonth. 



William K. Harris considers the pres- 

 ent chrysanthemum season as the best 

 in seven years. 



Raymond Brunswick says that ad- 

 vance orders of the M. Rice Co. are so 

 heavy that they compel continued over- 

 time to get them out. 



The London Flower Shop figures in 

 tlie movies with its motor delivery 

 driven by a woman chauffeur. 



George E. Campbell is successful 

 with Rose Prima Donna. 



Sydney H. Bayersdorfer says that hia 

 firm, H. Bayersdorfer & Co., is able to 

 keep pace with its orders, although they 

 are much heavier than at this time last 

 year. 



P. J. Vervaecke is bringing choice 

 carnations to Berger Bros. 



Victor I. Ridenour's store is an oasis. 

 This is not a reflection on the park 

 opposite, which is hardly at its best 

 just now. The visitor is unprepared
