products of "der vaderland" as Charles 

 Schmidt and Christian Binning, of the 

 entertainment committee, and that the 

 repast will amply satisfy the 6:30 p. m, 

 appetites of the club members. 



It has been the feeling of most of the 

 members that the local retailers might 

 obtain great benefit by becoming mem- 

 bers and active supporters of the club. 

 In fact, it is thought that the man or 

 woman depending on a local trade has 

 far more to gain by such a membership 

 than the florist whose product is shipped 

 broadcast. But the small local florist 

 usually sticks closely to his place of busi- 

 ness, frequently does his own firing at 

 night, and imagines that he cannot af- 

 ford to spare an evening a month. Yet, 

 if he would view the matter in a true 

 light, rise a step or two above his present 

 level, take advantage of the advertising 

 which would result from his mere mem- 

 bership in the club, learn what his fellow 

 craftsmen are doing by listening to the 

 interesting discussions which irrepres- 

 sibly bob up at the regular meetings, he 

 would be dollars ahead, have a stock of 

 useful new ideas, and acquire an enthu- 

 siasm which would lighten the labors of 

 his business. 



While a Dutch lunch' appeals most 

 strongly to the male members of the club, 

 some of whom express a decided aversion 

 to anything in the nature of a pink tea, 

 it is probable that at some succeeding 

 meeting the occasion will be particularly 

 adapted to both sexes, so that the lady 

 florists of the city may be invited. When 

 it can be made apparent that the inter- 

 ests of all branches of the florists' trade 

 are in a certain degree mutual, and when 

 the local retailers shall recognize the 

 benefits of cooperation, one of the most 

 alive and entertainingly instructive clubs 

 in the country will be gradually built up.
