The Florists^ Review 



March 17, 1921. 



Co., is credited with having displayed 

 the first electrically-lighted map for 

 F. T. D. advertising. He has now re- 

 installed the map in his north window, 

 where its size and the brilliancy of the 

 lighting are causing much favorable 

 comment. 



yhellgrain & Eitter had many orders 

 for floral offerings to honor movie 

 stars, who held their annual ball at the 

 Exposition auditorium, March 5. Local 

 movie fans told of their admiration for 

 their favorites in flowers and the re- 

 sult was a rush of business for a number 

 of florists. 



F. C. Jaeger & Son have been finding 

 business so good on Saturday that 

 every week they are practically sold 

 out before closing time. They consider 

 this an excellent argument for Sunday 

 closing. 



Fred Bertrand is having his Palace 

 hotel flower store altered to resemble a 

 conservatory. Mr. Bertrand had the 

 table decorations for tli# dinner and 

 dance in the palm court of the hotel, 

 tendered by local society people to their 

 favorites in the movie world. This af- 

 fair was on the day preceding the big 

 movie ball. M. M. 



WASHINGTON, D. C. 



The Market. 



Stock was abundant for inauguration 

 week here, but the supply was well 

 taken up. American Beauties brought 

 as high as $18 a dozen and long-stemmed 

 roses as much as 50 cents. Tausend- 

 schoen rose bushes, lilacs and hydran- 

 geas made their appearance. There are 

 some fine Easter lilies and ferns for the 

 Easter trade. 



Various Notes. 



Inauguration week was certainly a 

 full one for local florists. Orders for 

 hundreds of baskets poured in from all 

 parts of the country and many small 

 receptions kept the various staffs on the 

 job. Gude Bros. Co. furnished about 

 eighty baskets and- also supplied the 

 garlands of laurel and the flowers that 

 decorated the stand from which Presi- 

 dent Harding delivered liis address. 



From all indications the incoming ad- 

 ministration will entertain considerably. 

 During the week E. B. MacLean gave a 

 dinner at which covers were laid for 200. 

 J. H. Small supplied the decorations for 

 this event. 



Local members of the trade were 

 grieved to hear of the death of^r^. 

 Richard Vincent, Jr.. of White M4rsh>x^ 

 Md. William F. Gude, Mr. Bauer and f\ 

 J. Harper Hethcrington attended the 

 funeral. G. A. E.
