— when you glaze. 

 The Paranoid Company, Cleveland, Ohio 



peeted. We are always careful to check 

 over and inspect every order before 

 shipping, but, regardless of the fact 

 that we are operating the best inspec- 

 tion system that we can invent, errors 

 will occur in a business which handles 

 hundreds of orders daily, as we do. We 

 therefore suggest that you examine 

 flowers as soon as received and make 

 sure they are satisfactory. If not, 

 notify us at once, as we desire every 

 recipient of Woodlawn's flowers to be 

 a little more than satisfied. It is this 

 desire that has built our business." A. 

 Moore is back at work again, after be- 

 ing confined to his home for about a 

 week. 



Eecent weather conditions have been 

 against proper handling of Easter lilies 

 and, from present indications, it is going 

 to be a difficult matter to bring the 

 Easter crop through in proper time. A 

 number of the growers state that they 

 will have a large enough supply in num- 

 bers, but that a change in weather is 

 badly needed. 



F. G. Gasch, of the Green Lake Floral 

 Co., announces that the loss from the 

 recent wind storm will be a little less 

 than had been at first expected. It is 

 now figured at $15,000, as compared with 

 the first estimate of $18,000. 



Robert Newcomb, representing the 

 Burlington Willow Ware Shops, Burling- 

 ton, la., has been a recent trade visitor 

 and reports a good demand for stock. 



The College Flower Nook has been 

 opened at University way and East 

 Forty-fifth street, by Virginia M. Mc- 

 Candlish, who, until recently, owned the 

 shop in the lobby of the Green build- 

 ing here. This is located on a transfer 

 point near the University of Washing- 

 ton, and is expected to do a good tran- 

 sient business. 



The Orpheum Floral Co. reports an 

 especially good sale of Keizerskroon tu- 

 lips, white hyacinths and the more bril- 

 liant shades of cinerarias. 



Some special floral decorations, in- 

 cluding a horseshoe of huckleberry, were 

 prepared at the shop celebration in 

 honor of the birthday of Thomas Sher- 

 wood, of the Woodlawn Flower Shop, 

 last week. 



Floral decorations for the opening of 

 the cafeteria of Meeves Bros, were 

 handled by Melby & Allen. Spring flow- 

 ers and acacias were placed on each of 

 the 175 tables, while several thousand 

 carnations, the gift of the management 

 to the diners, were also included. 



A most attractive St. Valentine 'a day 

 window was prepared at the Holly- 

 wood Gardens by S. A. Dunlop. A minia- 

 ture bridge, with hand rails, was made 

 with pussy willows, and on this stood 

 two kewpies, facing a shower of tiny
