 the committee unanimously decided in 

 favor of Convention hall, at Broad

 for eight days, probably Saturday, 

 March 26, to Sunday, April 2, 1916. 

 This will be three weeks before Easter, 

 wiich is April 23 in that year. 



How: Some fifteen committees formed 

 from perhaps half of the members of 

 the Philadelphia Florists' Club have 

 been selected to do the work. Each 

 committee will have its special field,

 stead of bearing heavily on the shoul-

A Camden Wedding. 



The most beautiful church wedding 

 that has ever taken place in Camden, 

 N. J., occurred recently. The deco- 

 rations were of pink and white chrys- 

 anthemums, perfect, highly-colored pin 

 oak foliage, palms, ferns and greens. 

 The altar was elaborately decorated 

 with artistic skill, green and white be- 

 ing used with tfelling effect. A pretty 

 feature wa& the baskets of whitie chrys- 

 anthemums surmounting the aisle posts, 

 three large baskets On each side of the 

 long middle aisle. Baskets of the au- 

 tumn queeh were also suspended from 

 the chandelier. Sfereens prettily fes- 



tooned were used to break the severity 

 of the corners. The bride carried 9 

 lovely shower bouquet of valley and 

 white orchids. The maid of honor had 

 a pink muflF of valley. The work was 

 arranged and executed by James M. 

 Thoirs, who was ably assisted by James 

 Walch. Mr. Thoirs has, by energy 

 and ability, developed a fine business in 

 Camden. 



Various Notes. 



J. J. Habermehl 'a Sons expect to open 

 their new flower store, adjoining the 

 Ritz-Carlton hotel, November 21. The 

 date of opening depends on the hotel 's 

 ability to get its annex finished in 

 time. 



Ludwig P. Vollers purchased the re- 

 tail business of Robert Kift, at 1725 

 Chestnut street, November 16. The 

 business will be carried on under the 

 name of Vollers' House of Flowers. 



Edward Reid has been appointed b^ 

 the court as trustee for th6 closing up 

 of the affairs of Robert Kift. 



The Joseph Heacock Co. has installed 

 a compressed air system, with a large 

 tank, in the plant at Roelofs, owing to 

 the water lowering in the wells. 



The will of Godfrey Asehmann leaves 

 his business to his eldest son, John
