the association should assume and retain 

 the absolute control, as is subject to be 

 done in and by the deeds of conveyance 

 and by the by-laws and regulations of 

 the plaintiff company, of the erection 

 of monuments and partitions between 

 lots, the planting of trees and shrubbery 

 and the general subject of ornamenta- 

 tion." 



This does not mean, of course, that 

 there is any more reason why a cemetery 

 association should be permitted to ex- 

 clude general florists from filling urns, 

 etc., subject to reasonable rules of the 

 cemetery, th.an there would be reason in 

 the association socking to monopolize 

 the business of erecting monuments, etc. 

 But there is at least plausible room for 

 argument, from the standpoint of ceme- 

 tery associations, that if lot owners are 

 willing to give an association an order 

 to fill an urn with flowers and charge 

 him with the reasonable cost of doing 

 it, outside florists are not legally ag- 

 grieved. 



But when a cemetery association, ex- 

 empted, as such, from the payment of 

 taxes, sends solicitors out to get orders

January's Prominent Birthdays 

 Their Money-Making PossibiHties 



Here you and I have been kicking because the flower business 

 is feast or famine, and of a sudden we wake up and find 

 the calendar is chuck full of special days that can be turned 

 into extra money-making days for us. 



January alone has five birthdays of the country's famous 

 men. 



Men whose deeds have made them known to everybody. 



What opportunities they do offer for window displays and 

 selling link-ups! 



At the beginning of each month of this year, think I'll just 

 mention the famous birthdays of that month, 



JANUARY'S ARE— 



Alexander Hamilton — January 11th 

 Benjamin Franklin — " I7th 

 Robert E. Lee — " 19th 



Stonewall Jackson — " 2l8t 

 William McKinley — " 29th 

 Why not give special attention to Robert E. Lee Day? 

 As a man, think of his rare mentality and splendid charac- 

 ter, alike tender and staunch. 



As a champion of the southern cause, we all admire and re- 

 vere him. 



Robert E. Lee — not alone a leader of men in battle, but in 

 peace, an inspiration to all.

WATER SUPPLY CASE. 



Florist Wins Victory. 



The florist is not litigious. He sel- 

 dom has his name written in the reports 



of decisions of courts of last resort. 

 But experience shows that when he does 

 wade into a lawsuit he holds his own at 

 the outcome. 



One of the important cases in which 

 victory for the greenhouse has been won 

 in the courts is that of Watson vs. In- 

 habitants of Needham, 161 Massachu- 

 setts Supreme Judicial Court Reports,
