The Florists^ Review 



61 



president of otir Florist^' Club, re- 

 sponded to the toast, "Our Baltimore 

 Neighbors," and Eichard Vincent, Jr., 

 president of the American Dahlia So- 

 ciety, spoke on "Dahlias." Those in 

 the party were J. S. Merritt, Wm. E. 

 McKissick and Fred Bauer and their 

 wives. Miss Stevenson, Miss Ehoda Vin- 

 cent, Miss Elizabeth Lorenz, Wm. F. 

 Ekas, Thos. Stevenson and George 



Eberle. 



The Maryland Horticultural Society 

 met at Hagerstown last week, in the 

 apple belt of the state. Some of the flo- 

 rists of this city took advantage of the 

 meeting to make the trip over the Blue 



Bidge mountains, which at this season 

 are lovely. Among those who went were 

 Eobert Graham and wife, Eobert L. Gra- 

 ham, Jr., and wife and Miss Jessie 

 Graham. 



One of the most prominent weddings 

 held in the city so far this season was 

 that of Miss Mary George White and 

 Major Bates, of the United States Army. 

 The First Presbyterian church was hand- 

 somely decorated with palms and chrys- 

 anthemums by Mary Johnston. Miss 

 White and the President's daughter had 

 been chums at Goucher College and the 

 flowers used in the home were from 

 the White House greenhouses. Eobert 



Johnston, who arranged the decoration, 

 seemed to be inspired by handling flow- 

 ers of such distinguished origin, as he 

 certainly accomplished a fine piece of 

 work. 



James Glass came under the wire a 

 winner, in being the first man to bring 

 sweet peas to the market this fall. Mr. 

 Glass will have his usual fine snap- 

 dragons this season. 



Lohr & Fritze are cutting as fine 

 Double White Killarney as ever were 

 seen on the Baltimore market. Their 

 other varieties are good, but the Double 

 White Killarney are blue ribbon quality.
