The Florists^ Review 



25 



thanks for their direction of Toronto's 

 hospitality. For the ladies Mrs. Moore 

 and Mrs. Waters outdid themselves, 

 seeming to find no end to their exertions 

 in the fair visitors' behalf. 



Entertainment. 



On Tuesday and Thursday luncheon 

 was provided for everybody at the meet- 

 ing by the Toronto florists. The Crystal 

 room, on the seventeenth floor of the 

 King Edward hotel, was splendidly dec- 

 orated for this purpose. Arrangements 

 were made for 500 guests at these 

 luncheons, 



Wednesday afternoon was expressly 

 reserved for themselves by the Toron- 

 tans, so that ^visitors, closely following 

 the business sessions, would not go away 

 without having seen the Queen city. An 

 automobile ride was arranged, so that 

 visitors were able to drive around the 

 city, visiting the famous estates of Sir 

 John C. Eaton and Sir Henry Pellatt, 

 the residential districts, the parks and 

 harbor extensions. 



That evening a dinner dance was held 

 in the Crystal room of the King Edward 



hotel, when Ernest S. Simmons was able 

 to show his ability as a provider of 

 entertainment. 



The ladies, meanwhile, were well cared 

 for by Mrs. Waters and Mrs. Moore. A 

 luncheon was given them Wednesday, 

 shopping expeditions were planned and 

 a generally delightful time afforded the 

 wives of visitors. 



Decorations. 



At no previous F. T. D. meeting have 

 the decorations been so lavish as at this 

 one in Toronto. In the elevators of the 

 King Edward strangers said, ' ' They 're 

 holding a big convention here this week 

 — florists from all parts." The teleg- 

 raphers' convention preceded ours and 

 that of Typothetae (employing printers) 

 followed, but attracted no such notice. 

 The lobbies and whole second floor of 

 the hotel were festooned with green. 

 The convention' hall was a bower; the 

 Crystal room likewise. The street lamp 

 posts, from the Union station to the 

 hotel, were each adorned with a spruce 

 tree and a sign, pointing the way to 

 F. T. D. headquarters. 



As head of the decoration committee, 

 S. A. Frost earned immense credit. Not 

 only did he work unremittingly himself, 

 but he secured the generous aid of oth- 

 ers. Plants and cut flo\i^ers were forth- 

 coming from the Dale Estate, at Bramp- 

 ton; Ofield & Son, at Grimsby; Dunlop 

 & Son, at Richmond Hill; Orlosski Floral 

 Co., at Kitchener, and S. Tidy & Son, 

 Miller & Sons, Mrs. Percy Waters, H. 

 G. Dillemuth and other Toronto florists. 

 The spruce trees came from S. A. Frost 

 and Alfred Wesley, of Pefferlaw, Ont. 



On Mr. Frost's staff of decorators, 

 who worked till midnight Monday dec- 

 orating the hotel lobbies and halls, were 

 William Hoath, Charles Cooper, S. A. 

 McFadden, W. A. Bowers, Jack Harri- 

 son, William J. Powell, Jack Plumbtree, 

 William Hill, Andrew Entwistle, James 

 Lawrie, Charles Lewis, Fred Dalton, E. 

 A. Lye, George Hatcher, Frank Duffy 

 and Harry Johnson. 



A souvenir program of thirty-two 

 pages was put forth by the Toronto flo- 

 rists, through the advertising support 

 of leading Canadian houses and some 

 members of the association.
