What an inspiration it would be to 

 those children to have half an hour 

 with Dennis Conner and to hear his 

 happy descriptions of the exhibits! 

 Why, it would make horticulturists of 

 half of them and life-long flower lovers 

 of the remainder. 



The exhibit of the Charles H. Totty 

 Co., of Madison, N. J., had great educa- 

 tional value. The hardy little pompons, 

 singles and anemones attracted many 

 amateurs. The new and standard vari- 

 eties in the same types from A. N. Pier- 

 son, Cromwell, Conn., were of great 

 educational value in affording oppor- 

 tunity for comparison between old and 

 new. 



Club Meeting. 



The December meeting of the Florists' 

 Club was held in the City Club, Broad 

 street, Tuesday evening, December 7. 

 Charles H. Totty, of Madison, N. J., was 

 the speaker of the evening. Mr. Totty 

 gave an interesting account of his trip 

 abroad. He described the carnations 

 grown in England by W. E. Wallace in 

 American-built houses, the finest plants 

 he ever saw, eight feet in height, with 

 wonderful flowers. 



The exhibits included Christmas flow- 

 ering plants from the Robert Craig Co., 

 among them some marvelous cyclamens; 

 decorative plants from William K. Har- 

 ris; foliage wreaths and holly from Her- 

 man Fimmer, and specimens of the two 

 roses, American Legion and The Oem, 

 from Edward Towill. 



The attendance was large. 



Various Notes. 



Jesse A. Curry, of Portland, Ore., 

 spoke on "New Roses" at the Rotary 

 Club dinner at the Bellevue-Stratford 

 November 18. Mr. Curry occupies the 

 position toward roses in the west that 

 is held by George C. Thomas in tlie 

 east. 



Edward A. Stroud has been doing 

 good work for the Red Cross. 



William H. Wyatt died suddenly No- 

 vember .30. Further news of his death 

 will be found in the obituary column. 



George S. Faulkner has again sought 

 other pastures. 



The annual outing of the rosarians 

 was held Wednesday, November 17. 

 The party was smaller than usual, but 

 quite select. Several celebrities and 

 the newspaper men were absent. There 

 were seven: .John R. Andre, William 

 A. Geiger, Arthur A. Niessen, George 

 Burton, Alfred M. Campbell, H. B. 

 Darlington and Edward Swartz. They 

 visited the three Burton places, Myers
