ALBANY, N. Y. 



At a recent meeting of the Albany 

 Florists' club, held at the establishment 

 of the president, Frederick Z. Goldring, 

 Slingerlands, the subject of the recent 

 ruling of the board of education prohib- 

 iting the delivery of flowers at the pub- 

 lic school commencements was discussed 

 at length. The action of the board was 

 taken because it was found that children 

 whose parents and friends could not af- 

 ford to give them flowers were generally 

 disappointed when others were presented 

 with handsome presents. The board, of 

 course, cannot prevent the sending of 

 flowers to the homes of the pupils, but 

 says that they must not be lent to the 

 commencement halls. 



The florists claim that the ruling does 

 injustice to the business of a number of 

 legitimate tradesmen. President Gold- 

 ring appointed the following committee 

 to continue the crusade against the rul- 

 ing: Fred A. Danker, chairman; H. G. 

 Eyres, W. C. King, Edward F, Meaney,

The subject of closing Saturday after- 

 noons and at 5:30 p. m. on week days 

 was discussed. It is proposed to have the 

 stores and greenhouses close at these 

 hours. The stores, however, will be open 

 Sunday mornings until noon, for funeral 

 work and emergency orders. The matter 

 was left to a committee composed of 

 Thomas Tracey, John N. Butts and A. 

 D. Wemple. 



The meeting was followed by refresh- 

 ments and a social hour. The next meet- 

 ing, August 5, will be held at the estab- 

 lishment of Fred A. Danker. The club 

 will hold its usual outing and clambake 

 in September. The arrangements will be 

 in the hands of the committee which had 

 charge a year ago.
