a little church on the hillside. The 

 choir sang it with a will, assisted by 

 such of the congregation as could. 

 When the Eeverend Billy Sunday ar- 

 rived "the flowers" were asked to 

 rise from their seats again to be 

 thanked for a beautiful basket of their 



Eroduct that graced the platform, sent 

 y the wholesalers of Philadelphia and 

 arranged by Pennock Bros. 



The sermon was most impressive, 

 nothing that the dearest girl in all the 

 world should not hear, with little ref- 

 erence to booze, and strong appeal to 

 the best that is ■ in us. Then came 

 the call to come forward, responded to 

 by many of us, amid the singing of 

 "Onward, Christian Soldiers" by the 

 large choir and vast audience. A few 

 moments more and the entire assem- 

 blage was out in the open air again, 

 wondering at the power of one man to 

 stir so many. 



Easter Lilies. 



The first call of the season in quest 

 of a line on lilies was made at God- 

 frey Aschmann's place. It chanced ex- 

 actly six weeks before they should be 

 at their best. That length of time is 

 named in the rules for lily growing un- 

 der glass when you want the buds to 

 show above the foliage. I have not 

 read the rule for years, but my recol- 

 lection is that it reads this way: "The 

 buds should be distinctly visible above 

 the plants when seen from the doorway 

 of the greenhouse." That is just the 

 way they are at Godfrey Aschmann's 

 place, and a prettier lot of Lilium multi- 

 florum would be hard to fancy. They 

 are well flowered, clean and vigorous. 

 Of course, on the question of height, no 

 two of us ever agreed; I can only say 

 that they seem to me to be of excellent 

 height. Besides the multiflorum lilies, 

 there are some giganteums. (Jigs, one 

 of my festive friends calls them. Yes, 

 I think it was Bobby.) French hy- 

 drangeas; Spiraea Gladstone, as even as 

 a meadow; azaleas galore, cinerarias, 

 primroses and the biggest flowered Be- 

 gonia luminosa "that you ever did 

 see. ' ' 



The effect of the place was so pleas- 

 ing that, before leaving, a word of con- 

 gratulation was given to John Godfrey 

 Aschmann on the bright Easter outlook.
