nity to see floral tributes that ran the 

 entire gamut, from the artistic to the 

 ridiculous. Senator Young, besides be- 

 ing prominent politically, was for thirty 

 years secretary of- the Maryland Insti- 

 tute and School of Design; he was a 

 member of many fraternal organiza- 

 tions, from the Masons down; through 

 his son, who is a prominent actor, he 

 was in a way connected with the theat- 

 rical profession. He was a great lover 

 of flowers, and one of the duties of his 

 secretary was to provide him with a 

 white carnation each morning, for his 

 coat. He was never seen on the street 

 without it. 



I relate this bit of biography of the 

 man to give some idea of the sources 

 of the great mass of flowers at 

 his funeral. All of the organizations, 

 etc., were represented by floral trib- 

 utes. There were palls, casket crosses, 

 wreaths and bunches, from the best 

 stores in the city, that were specimens 

 of floral art, together with designs from 

 the various societies, and it was ap- 

 parent that expense was not considered. 

 There were tributes from those in the 

 more humble walks of life that had 

 been purchased in the market; and, let 

 me say right here, in some of the 

 cheaper designs one could n^t help but 

 see that the designers had used thought, 

 and with the material at hand had made 

 designs that were a credit to them. 



Emblems Sometimes Hard to Handle. 



Of other designs, especially those 

 from some of the organizations, the 

 same could not be said. I will cite one 

 fasp, and this was not the only one, but 

 it will sliow what I am trying to get at. 



Tlie offering of a patriotic society 

 was a cross and miter resting on an 

 easel. Everything about this design 

 went to show that expense was a small 

 matter with those who ordered it. Now 

 just try to imagine the cross, which 

 was fairly well made of red and white 

 flowers, and the miter, the most prom- 

 inent part of the piece, of purple im- 

 mortelles, and faded ones at that. This 

 was during the latter part of June, 

 when cornflowers or blue larkspurs 

 covild have been had, and no doubt at 

 less cost than the immortelles. 



There is no one who knows better 

 than the writer that emblems of so- 

 cieties often tax the ingenuity of the 



seathe, WASH
