 affords the best means for publicity, 

 especially in a small town; at least, 

 such is our experience."

ALBANY CLUB MEETS. 



At the monthly meeting of the Albanv 

 Florists' Club, Albany, N. Y.. held at 

 the Cut Flower Exchange Thursday 

 evening, December 1, officers for the en- 

 suing year were elected. As president, 

 Alfred Jenkins, gardener to Senator A. 

 Sage, who owns one of the fine estates 

 in that city, was elected. Mr. Jenkins 

 received, on motion of W. W. Hannell, 

 who retired in his favor, a unanimous 

 vote. Mr. Jenkins pledged best efforts 

 for the welfare of the club. John Han- 

 nell, Watervliet, N. Y., was elected vice- 

 president and the entry of younger blood 

 in this scion of the family of W. W. 

 Hannell augurs well for the future of 

 the club. Thomas Keller was elected to 

 fill the office of secretary-treasurer. Mr. 

 Keller has been with F. A. Danker for 

 fifteen years, fills the position of head 

 salesman at the Danker store and has 

 the esteem of his fellow members. 



The Other Side of 

 Happiness in Every Box 



All over the country there are springing up a 

 host of chain candy stores. 



All of them are bidding for the gift money that's 

 spent for flowers. 



One chain is owned by the United Cigars Com- 

 pany. 



If you don't believe they are aiming their biggest 

 guns straight at our heads, just read this that 

 appears on the walls of all their stores, and 

 everywhere else they can blazon it: 



"United Candy speaks all languages. It 

 dries the tears of little children and 

 wreathes the faces of old age in smiles. 

 "It is the unspoken message from the 

 lover to his sweetheart; the token of con- 

 tinuing affection from husband to wife. 

 "It brings joy to the home, comfort and 

 good cheer to the absent. 

 "There is Happiness in every box." 



If we florists don't'wake up, there will be gloom 



in every box for us. 



We've been too content. We are altogether too 



smug. 



I tell you fellows we must begin to step. It's up 



to us to do some freal advertising before the 



candy man, and the fruit store, and the jewelry 



people and the book makers cut button holes in 



our business.

Among the several items of important 

 business transacted during the evening 

 were the decisions to hold the annual 

 banquet at the January meeting, to pre- 

 pare for the best-ever fall show, to be 

 held in the armory next year, and to 

 accept the offer of Robert Pyle to pre- 

 sent his illustrated lecture, so success- 

 fully given at Cornell not long ago. 

 This talk is to be given in the beautiful 



Educational building next spring and 

 notices of it are to be distributed broad- 

 cast to insure a reiord attendance. 



The spirit of the meeting was, in the 

 language of Henry Eberhardt, the retir- 

 ing vice president, to boost every means 

 of publicity for the profession. F. A. 

 Danker observed that the private shows 

 given by the several storemen were 

 much apjireciated and sales were fully
