SOMETHING 

 TO CROW 

 OVER 



BOXWOOD SPRAYS for CHRISTMAS 



|HE fact that we sell more Boxwood Sprays to the Florists than any other firm in this 

 country is of little consequence. But the reason why this is so is important to you. It is 

 because our Boxwood Sprays are giving better satisfaction. It is because we select just 

 what we know will suit you. It is because we buy only the choicest quality. Now is the time to 

 order if you have not done so before. Price on orders placed now is entered at $15.00 per 100 

 pounds. Our special lightweight shippiog cases will save you as much as 40% on your expressage. 

 Shipments can be made at your command. We guarantee the quality; can't do any more. May 

 we enter your order for this material?

WELD & FRANKLIN, Altamont, N. C. 



flower stores last week and some of 

 them were quite cleverly executed. E. 

 A. Fetters' window was trimmed with 

 an abundance of cornstalks, corn, flow- 

 ers, both real and artificial, and ribbon 

 effects. In one corner was a small hut 

 of cornstalks in which sat a realistic 

 looking old witch; the expression on 

 her face, which was well illuminated, 

 was enough to cause the cold chills to 

 run down one's back. 



Breitmeyer's window had a high 

 board fence across the background. 

 The fence was painted pumpkin color. 

 On this sat four black cats, their tails 

 curled up so as to represent the fig- 

 ures 1913. In the foreground were 

 many pretty baskets among a lot of 

 straw scattered about the floor of the 

 window. 



Sullivan's had the windows in both 

 of their stores prettily trimmed. 



Walter Taepke attracted attention 

 by a liberal use of corn and pumpkins, 

 well arranged. 



Schroeter's had an appropriately dec- 

 orated table in one window. In the 

 other window was shown an old tum- 

 bledown barn as a background, sur- 

 rounded by many trees and an old 

 fence. In the foreground were several 

 heaps of pumpkins and cabbages and 

 many black cats. Flying down over 

 the roof of the barn was a well made 

 monoplane, about seven feet long, upon 

 which sat an old witch. The propeller 

 of the aeroplane revolved. On the 

 aeroplane was a small placard reading, 

 ' ' A Modern Witch in a Modern Flower 

 Store." 



Various Notes.. 



Tuesday evening, October 28, about 

 thirty florists assembled at a banquet 

 given in honor of B. Schroeter. Mr. 

 Schroeter thinks pretty well of his 

 fireside and it was only through j. 

 clever scheme of Albert Fochelon that 

 his presence was to be had at the ban- 

 quet. Toastmaster Scribner Sailed on 

 moat ,.9jf th« wen present for a few .re- 

 marks and, if '•ecbtftk 'thing wore pos-
