Baskets of flowers were; sent to the 

 mayors of princijial cities and to Presi- 

 dent Harding in the name of the mayor 

 of I ndianajiolis on the opening day of 

 the show. Philips Pros., Newark, N. J., 

 reproduced the telegram carrying the 

 ordi'r for Newark's mayor as an adver- 

 tisement in the local newspaper. Much 

 publicity v\as giiined for the show by 

 these floial luessiiges.

 lndi;in;i|iolis Star ajipeared with a spe- 

 cial flower show section of fourteen 

 pact's, in which florists were liberal ad- 

 vertisers.

The cut flower display of the E. C. 

 -Vmling Co., Chicago, occasioned a 

 lengthy story regarding the great cen- 

 tral Hower mtirket in the flower show 

 special of the Indianapolis Star. George 

 Mohn gave the reporter plenty of in- 

 formation, though the latter did not in 

 every jtl.ace quote Mr. Mohn correctly.

.\mong the few Pacific coast florists 

 present was I'raiik L. Morris, now of 

 Santa .\na, Cal., but formerly of the 

 Hoosier state. He met many old 

 friends, who thought the rejuvenating 

 influence of the Golden State climate 

 xvas to be seen.

Coming from the New York show to 

 Indi;inapolis, A. Ilerrington was en- 

 thusiastic over the superior facilities 

 for exhil)ition purposes of the building 

 whitdi houses the national show. Not 

 only ilid he find it e:isy to lay out a 

 pleasiii},' ]ilan, but the concrete floor, 

 permitting trucks to bring soil antl ex- 

 hibits to the sjiot where they were to be 

 pl.'iced and allowing ample watering, 

 ple.'ised the exhibitors immensely.

 Attendance the opening day was dou- 



bb that of the first day of the recent 

 atitoinobile show at Indianaj)olis. Siin- 

 tl.ty brought a crowd des|)ite rain. Mon- 

 d;iy evening one had to fight his way 

 unless he drifted with the crowd, guided 

 by ;i corps of husky police. The public 

 seemed jirogressively interested. 



* • • • 



Every effort had been made by the 

 Indi;inapolis florists to insure a l.'trgt> 

 public attendance. The automobile 

 route from downtown to the show w;is 

 iiKirketl by pine trees tied to tht' lam|> 

 ]iosts ;ind arrows jiointing "To the 

 Flower Show." At the fair grounds the 

 walk to the two Viuildings used was bor- 

 dered on either side with southern i)ines.
