ST. LOUIS NOTES. 



tConcliuicd from paso ];iO. 1 



Waldbridge, which occurred May 1, in 

 Ills seventy-fifth year, recalled to the 

 writer the fact that he was a great 

 lover of flowers and brought back the 

 memory of the flowery address of wel- 

 come to tlie members of the S. A. F. 

 at the time of its annual convention 

 here in 1893. He was mayor at the time 

 and his address was recorded in the 

 trade press as the most fitting address 

 of welcome that the society had ever 

 liad. "William E. Smith was the presi- 

 dent of the society at the time and it 

 was the ninth annual convention. 



The oflScers of the St. Louis Florists' 

 Club accepted the invitation from the 

 board of trustees and director to be 

 present at the dedication of the new 

 entrance of the Missouri Botanical 

 Garden, Tuesday, May 10, at 1 o'clock. 

 All prominent citizens were there and 

 luncheon was served in the floral dis- 

 play house. 



The state vice-president of the S. A. 

 F., August H. Hummert, and L. Jules 

 Bourdet and W. J. Pilcher compose a 

 committee to start a campaign to sign 

 np all the members of the St. Louis 

 Florists' Club who are not members of 

 the S. A. F. The club's membership is 

 210 and 115 of these are S. A. F. mem- 

 bers. That leaves ninety-five to sign 

 up in order to make the local club 100 

 per cent S. A. F. A meeting of this 

 committee will be held this week. 



Grimm & Gorly had a most remark- 

 able display of plants and cut flowers 

 all last week. The display was for 

 Mothers' day, which this store expected 

 to be the largest it ever experienced, 

 judging from the advance orders and 

 the telegraph orders for local delivery. 



John Steidle, Olivette, Mo., furnished 

 the trade with many fine begonias. 

 Several thousand were disposed of for 

 Mothers' day.
