cut stock from their own range. Misa 

 Cook aasured me the store had no 

 trouble in getting through the holiday. 

 It was only a question of handling the 

 business and, when she says this, it 

 means that a big business has been 

 handled, for no store here has a more 

 up-to-date system than this store for 

 handling a big rush. 



William J. Halliday, as usual at this 

 season, had a fine display of orchids, 

 all from his own range. With made-up 

 baskets and plenty of cut stock, this 



house did one of the best Easter busi- 

 nesses in its history. 



At the Seidewitz Bros, store after 

 Easter, the room which had looked so 

 attractive on the Saturday before, 

 looked as though a tornado had struck 

 it. Everyone was smiling. "The best 

 Easter we have ever had," was the re- 

 ply to my natural question. 



At Mary Johnston's everything wa« 

 cleaned up and, while everyone was 

 tired out after the big rush, they were 

 all happy and sanguine as to the future 



of the florists' business. Mrs. Johnston, 

 who is one of the most conservative 

 business women connected with the 

 trade in Baltimore, assured me it was 

 not a question of doing business, but 

 one of getting stock to do business 

 with. 



After a trip to the growers' estab- 

 lishments before Easter, the thing that 

 surprised the writer was the fine dis- 

 play everyone made. Not one florist 

 fell down on the job and all did a great 

 business. Tate.
