The Florists^ Review 



NOTBMBBB 11. 1920 



SEATTLE NOTES. 



[Concluded from page 106.] 



of a women 's clothing shop. G. L. Bates 

 has been added to the sales force at this 

 shop, taking the place made vacant when 

 P. F. Case left the florists ' trade to give 

 full time to his conserve plant. 



A nice run of floral work for the 

 last fortnight is reported by Kenney's 

 Home of Flowers. This shop has made 

 a fine showing of potted cyclamens.- 



The Orpheum Floral Co. has been 

 featuring baskets of the smaller dahlias 

 and pompons to good effect. It also 

 reports good sale for Bonnaffons. 



The Woodlawn Flower Shop reported 

 a number of table decorations for home 

 and club events during the last week. 

 Miss Zula Oreen, bookkeeper for this 

 firm, has returned from an extended 

 eastern vacation trip. 



Owing to delay in the completion of 

 the building at Fourth avenue and Pine 

 street, Carl Melby is still unable to 

 occupy his new shop there. This was to 

 have been completed about October 1. 



The Art Floral Co. has been making 

 special displays of potted ferns of late 

 and has been able to report especially 

 good sales of the smaller ferns sold in 

 odd-shaped jardinieres. 



Local friends were shocked last week 

 to learn of the sudden death of Wil- 

 liam M. Goodchild, nurseryman and 

 landscape gardmier. Friends heard a 

 dog barking strangely in their front 

 yard and investigation showed that Mr. 

 Goodchild had fallen dead of heart di- 

 sease, while on his way to visit them. 



Felix Rosaia reports a number of 

 church decorations for weddings lately. 

 He has used Bonnaffon and Turner mums 

 for most of these events. H. M. 



NEWPORT, R. I. 



Leikens, of this city and New York, 

 decorated for the wedding of Miss Euth 

 King, in New York, November 4, the 

 arrangements being quite elaborate. 

 Mrs. Joseph Leikens came to Newport 

 election day for the purpose of casting 

 her vote. She said that she was proud 

 to cast her first ballot in Newport, 

 where her husband claimed residence.
