The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



August 29, 1P07. 



sician. lie wont up against an oflicial 

 of the board of health, who diagnosed the 

 case as a mild attack of diphtheria and 

 at once confiscated Mr. Kanst, consigning 

 him to tlie municipal hospital, where, al- 

 though it was said his illness was slight, 

 he would be compelled to remain ten 

 days. 



Notes. 



Nathan Smith & Son, Adrian, Mich., 

 sent a vase of a fine early yellow mum, 

 a seedling, No. 9-1-06, that adorned the 

 president's table. It was marked "Bud 

 taken July 1, cut August 20." 



President S. 8. Pennock, of the Flo- 

 rists' Club of Philadelphia, to whose 

 genius for organization much of the 

 success of the convention is due, left 

 Philadelphia after the Fairmount park 

 entertainment on Friday and sailed from 

 New York early the next morning for a 

 visit in England. ' 



Fairmount park is a wonderful place, 

 j)robably the largest park in the world. 

 It is eleven miles long and natural in 

 most of its features. The Wissahickson 

 drive is not equaled in any other spot in 

 the country. 



On Saturday a large number of the* 

 western visitors went to Atlantic City to 

 rest up. Some of those who failed to en- 

 gage rooms in advance did not find the 

 place as restful as anticipated. 



William F. Dreer came all the way 

 from his summer home in Maine to be 

 present at this convention. 



William Graliam, as chairman of the 

 committees on decorations and on bowl: 

 ing, was a great success in each position. 



The Philadelphia hotels have a kick 

 coming. The refreshments served by the 

 various committees and local firms were 

 so numerous that the visitors hardly saw 

 the inside of the hotel dining rooms. 



Col. E. H. R. Green, of Dallas, Tex., 

 was present to see how ' ' we do things, 

 for I'm a florist, you know." He surely 

 is a florist, for he has nearly 300,000 

 feet of glass and finds the demand so 

 great that he Avill proceed at once to 

 erect nearly 200,000 feet additional. 



J. A. Peterson and wife, of Cincin- 

 nati, are in Europe and were missed. 



The Bowling.' 



In the ladies' team match there were 

 six cities represented, by teams of five 

 each. Chicago was the winner. In the 

 men's team contests Philadelphia won. 

 Following are the scores:
