The Weekly Florists' Review; 



February 4, 1909. 



GLEN COVE, N. Y. 



The annual dinner of the Nassau 

 County Horticultural Society drew an 

 enthusiastic attendance January 27. 

 Over fifty were present, including many 

 New Yorkers and representatives from 

 Westbury, Eoslyn, Locust Valley, Floral 

 Park, Huntington, Great Neck and 

 Oyster Bay. President Eoosevelt is a 

 member, but was unable to attend. The 

 festivities lasted three hours and were 

 full of interest to the close. The first 

 prize, a magnificent silver cup given by 

 Rickards Bros., New York, for the best 

 average exhibits of the year, went to 

 Henry F. Meyer, of Glen Cove, and 

 V. Cleres won the silver medal donated 

 by ex-President Adolph Jaenecke. Mr. 

 Jaenecke, on retiring from the oflSce of 

 president, was presented by the members 

 with a beautiful pearl and diamond pin. 

 The retiring secretary received a fine 

 fountain pen in recognition of his faith- 

 ful work. The new officers are: Presi- 

 dent, Jack W. Everett; vice-president, 

 James Elmsie; recording secretary, 

 Henry Gaut; corresponding secretary, 

 William McKenzie; treasurer, Ernest 

 Brown. The society is only four years 

 old and already has a membership of 

 150, nearly fifty having been added in 

 1908. 



There were speeches, songs, story- 

 telling, dancing, violin and piano solos, 

 recitations, etc., in abundance. The pro- 

 gram was a splendid one throughout. 

 J. A. Shaw, of New York, was toast- 

 master and kept the artists busy. The 

 talent included the Eickards brothers, 

 the Messrs. Davis, of the Glen Cove Echo, 

 and the editor of the Examiner in con- 

 gratulatory addresses; Andrew "Wilson, 

 of Summit, in song, dance and story; 

 Scotch and other songs by Charles Eussell 

 and William Armstrong; addresses by 

 Mr. Maynard, on "Society Organiza- 

 tion " ; W. J. Sperling, of the Stumpp & 

 Walter Co., on "The Ladies"; George 

 Burnett, on "Seeds"; Al Eickards, on 

 ' * The Commercial Traveler ' ' ; violin 

 solos by Eobert Angus, of Tarry town; 

 an original poem by Oscar Adore, and 

 interesting talks by Olof Blomburg, of 

 Franklin, Pa., Alex. McKenzie, Jack Ev- 

 erett and Adolph Jaenecke, the latter 

 announcing a scheme whereby the society 

 may have its own home in which to cele- 

 brate at the annual dinner of 1910.
