The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



August 17, 1903. 



Peter Bisset. 



(Secretary Washing-ton Florists" Club, 



dent Vaughan was presented with a 

 handsome memento of the occasion 

 which he will doubtless cherish far 

 more than for its intrinsic value for the 

 words of appreciation which went with 

 it of his able and effective work as 

 head of the society and his success as a 

 presiding officer.

 and 80 scattered that not all of the
