SCX3ETY OF AMERICAN FLORISTS. 



What Is the Matter With Cincmnati ? 



The writer has gust returned from a 

 visit to Cincinnati in regard to conven- 

 tion matters, and after a thorough can- 

 vass of the situation is prepared to most 

 emphatically .state that both Cincinnati 

 and the Cincinnati florists are all right. 



They seem to have anticipated every 

 difficulty and every discomfort which 

 might arise to their visitors and have 

 taken effective steps to avoid them. They 

 say unanimously that Cincinnati is not so 

 hot a place as people think, but as they 

 have learned that the impression has gone 

 out that exceptionally hot weather is like- 

 ly to be experienced at the convention 

 time, they are taking steps to avoid that 

 discomfort all along the line. They have 

 decided not to decorate the hall, which 

 would cost $150 or $200, but instead put 

 all of that money into extra ventilating 

 fans, so that there will be a good breeze 

 stirring in every part of the hall and 

 visitors will be perfectly comfortable at 

 all times. At the Gibson House, which 

 will be headquarters, they have arranged 

 that a fan will be furnished in every 

 room, without charge, for all those who 

 engage rooms in advance. 



The president's reception will not be 

 held in a stuffy hotel bar-room, but will 

 take place outdoors in a park upon a 

 hill, where the cool breezes play and 

 where the absence of a vest or even a 

 coat will not cause comment. After the 

 reception there are great doings in store, 

 but the writer is sworn to secrecy regard- 

 ing them for the present. 



The arrangements for bowling are ad- 

 mirable. The alleys are ideal and it is 

 stated that no one can get hot there, un- 

 less from the violence of his own physical 

 exertions or from mental anguish caused 

 by failing to make as many strikes as he 

 would like. 



Friday will be devoted to an excursion 

 by boat up the river to a large island 

 maintained as an amusement park. Here, 

 also, much secrecy was maintained and 

 many knowing looks were exchanged 

 among the local men regarding the stunts 

 which were to be pulled off. I did hear 

 accidentally, however, something about 

 a barbecue — an ox and two or three sheep 

 to be roasted whole — and it was stated 

 that the ball game would be held at this 

 place in the afternoon. Take it all in

all, the prospects for a comfortable time 

 and a most enjoyable one could not be 

 better. 



Superintendent Murphy is the busiest 

 man ever these days. He has already 

 sold over 10,000 feet of exhibition space 

 and says that, the way the inquiries and 

 applications are coming in, there is no 

 doubt but what all available space wiU 

 be taken, even though the full space is 

 three or four times as great as at Niag- 

 ara Falls. His address is William L. 

 i.jiurphy, 311 Main street, Cincinnati, and 

 those who have not already arranged for 

 exhibition space should take heed that 

 they make application at once, or it may 

 be too late. W. N. Eudd, Sec'y.
