The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



Decembeu 17, 1908. 



LENOX, MASS. , 



The annual meeting of the Lenox Hor- 

 ticultural Society was held Saturday, De- 

 cember 5, and was largely attended, 

 President Jack occupying the chair. Let- 

 ters were read from several of the judges 

 at the recent exhibition, congratulating 

 the members on the magnificent display 

 and questioning if the same could be du- 

 plicated out of Lenox. 



The treasurer and secretary read their 

 annual reports, which proved the society 

 to be in a prosperous condition, both 

 financially and otherwise. 



The following were elected oflScers for 

 the ensuing term: President, Allan Jen- 

 kins; vice-president, Ernest Marsh; 

 treasurer, F. Herremans; secretary, Geo. 

 H. Instone. 



Before leaving the chair, President 

 Jack thanked the members for their loyal 

 support during his term. He stated that, 

 although out of oflBce, his interest in the 

 society would not diminish, and he trust- 

 ed that the same good feeling would 

 always exist among the members. He 

 also dwelt at length upon the work of 

 the society as done to further the inter- 

 ests of horticulture and the high esteem 

 in which the society was held, which 

 every member might be justly proud of. 



The newly elected president, A. Jen- 

 kins, has lately been appointed superin- 

 tendent on the S. P. Shotter estate, 

 Lenox. 



E. J. Norman, Erskine Park, was ac- 

 corded a hearty vote of thanks for some 

 exceptionally fine Flamingo carnations^ 

 the color being especially good. 



G. H. L 



EVERETT, MASS. 



Two checks, purporting to be drawn 

 upon the Winthrop National bank of 

 Boston, and bearing the forged signature 

 of Mayor Charles Bruce, of Everett, were 

 foisted upon Clifford Tilton, December 

 8. Late in the afternoon an elderly, well- 

 dressed man entered Tilton's shop and 

 ordered a funeral piece which cost $9. 

 The purchaser said that he had no ready 

 money upon his person, but produced 

 one of these checks, made out to Daniel 

 Clark for $27. This Tilton cashed and 

 gave "Daniel Clark" back his $18. Soon 

 after the same man returned and ordered 

 another piece, for which he presented the 

 other check, for $21.40 By this ruse he 

 received in change $6.40. After the 

 stranger had left the florist called up the 

 mayor to make sure of the checks and 

 found them to be bogus.
