one took part and was the better for 

 so doing. 



The hall was beautifully decorated 

 with handsome foliage and showy flow- 

 ers; William McCrea Thompson is an 

 artist 01 ability. The stage was used 

 as a background for the exhibits, the 

 exhibits themselves arranged on tables 

 that displayed their beauty to advan- 

 tage; they were carefully labeled. 

 Koses predominated. There were many 

 outdoor flowers and some wild flowers 

 for children 's prizes. , The vegetables 

 were in a room by themselves. 



Abram L. Pennock was the distin- 

 guished horticultural guest of honor. 

 Mr. Pennock, who was one of the found- 

 ers of the firm of Pennock Bros., spends 

 two-thirds of each year in Florida, mak- 

 ing his home there. The summer months 

 are spent at Lansdowne. 



The American Bose Society's silver 

 medal for the best twelve varieties of 

 hybrid tea roses was won by Samuel 



S. Pennock, who distanced his nearest 

 rival by cutting his flowers with all 

 the foliage possible. Mr. Pennock 's va- 

 rieties were Mrs. Jardine, James Coey, 

 Robin Hood, Eichmond, Double Pink 

 Killarney, Mme. Caroline Testout, Lady 

 Alice Stanley, Mme. Edmond Rostand, 

 Margaret, Alexander Hill Gray, Bessie 

 Brown and an unknown. James Breen 

 won the bronze medal for the best six 

 hybrid teas and Mrs. Rupert Schaeffer 

 captured the bronze medal for the best 

 six hybrid perpetuals. Miss Mcllvaine 

 won the cup offered by Mrs. Edgar 

 Scott for the best exhibit of garden 

 flowers. The best rose in the show was 

 L&dy Hillingdon, grown by M. H. Cryer. 

 The judges were C. C. Lippincott, 

 Casper Pennock, Alphonse Pericat and 

 W. M. Thompson. 



Outing at Hammonton. 



A party of Philadelphians from the 

 Leo Niessen Co. went down to Ham- 



monton, N. J., on the 9:20 train on the 

 morning of June 6, to visit J. Murray 

 Bassett. Favored by glorious weather 

 and a hearty welcome, they had a 

 splendid time, enjoying their holiday 

 thoroughly. They had a ball game and 

 a good dinner and saw the dahlias that 

 had just been planted, and strolled in 

 the woods. What else they did they 

 win tell you themselves, for here are 

 the names:
