The Rorists' Review 



Jandabv 19. 1922 



PROVIDENCE, R. I. 



The Market. 



The inventory at New Year's was at- 

 tended with generally satisfactory re- 

 sults and the majority of the local trade 

 found that the year 1921 had not been 

 so bad as many had feared it would be. 

 There was, however, no season of the 

 year when it could be said that a rush 

 existed, or even an indication of a rush, 

 but the aggregate amount of business 

 for the twelve months was surprising to 

 many. Of course, there were a few spe- 

 cial days that stand out conspicuously, 

 but these days are always to be counted 

 upon and they were not disappointing 

 last year. Many florists looked to the 

 holidays to bring their year's sales up 

 to a good figure, and while the holiday 

 trade was not so large in volume as some 

 had hoped for, there was no complain- 

 ing and everyone apparently had a satis- 

 factory rounding out for the year. 



Various Notes. 



The greenhouses on the estate of John 

 C. Whitin, in Whitinsvillc, have been 

 closed by the present owner, Jo.siah M. 

 .Lassell, who has disposed of all of the 

 plants. These greenhouses have been in 

 use since 1876, and William McAllister, 

 who has been employed on the estate for 

 the last forty-five years, has been in 

 charge of them for twenty-five years. 



Samuel Resnick, of Bowers & Resnick, 

 has been suffering from bronchial trou- 

 bles. 



Max Viller has been calling on the 

 trade in southeastern New England in 

 the interests of J. E. Koppelman. 



E. K. Thomas was the speaker at the 

 regular luncheon meeting of the Ki- 

 wanis Club, January 11. 



Charles Hunt, of Burnside street, is 

 recovering from a severe attack of tlie 

 grip. 



William A. Bowers made a business 

 trip through central New England last 

 week. W. IT. M. 



LONDON, ONT. 



Emery B. Hamilton, of the West 

 Horal Co., entertained the staff Wednes- 

 day night, January 11. After attending 

 the theater the revelers had a dinner 

 party at Wong's cafe and spent a jolly 

 evening. A witty speech by Horace 

 P^ederick caused much merriment. Miss 

 Georgina Watt and Miss Reta Edwards, 

 on behalf of the staff, presented Mr. 

 Hamilton witli a handsome scarfpin. 

 Mr. Hamilton, in thanking them, ex- 

 pressed his appreciation of their faithful 

 service in tlie firm's interest and hoped 

 they would all meet again in 1923.
