* Xavier E. Schmitt will address the 

 'Plorists' Club at Horticultural hall, 

 Broad street below Locust, Tuesday 

 evening, August 1. Mr. Schmitt 's long 

 experience at Horticultural hall in 

 Fairmount park has given him unusual 

 opportunity to study all that is best 

 in ornamental and decorative planting. 



.Julius Wolff, Jr., and Mrs. Wolff 

 celebrated their silver wedding anni- 

 versary with a reception at the Hotel 

 Majestic July 21. About fifty persons 

 enjoyed a delightful repast. During 

 the evening the engagement of Mr. 

 Wolff's son, J. A. Wolff, was announced. 

 Easter lilies and lilies of the valley in 

 white enameled baskets were the table 

 decorations. Electrically lit white roses 

 formed the chief centerpiece, which 

 had a base of both lilies. The number 

 twenty-five, electrically formed, was a 

 prominent feature of the decoration. 



Golden Glow chrysanthemums arrived 

 a week ago, too early to excite much 

 interest, bilt pleasing for variety's sake. 



Joseph Josephs has moved easily 

 from the position as leader among the 

 strppt men to that of a prominent re- 

 tailer on an important thoroughfare. 

 His store is of good size and tastefully 

 arranged. 



iSaiiiuel S. Pennock has given the sub- 

 ject of advertising the study that it 

 deserves. His work, which is on orig- 

 inal lines, has attracted attention 

 abroad as well as in this country. 



John C. Gracey is enjoying his vaca- 

 tion at the seashore; at the wet or dry 

 place, did you say? At the dry one, of 

 course, i. e.. Ocean City, N. J. 



J. Otto Thilow says that the work 

 of the fall show committees is pro- 

 gressing. To cover the preliminary 

 expenses, $1,000 will be required. This 

 amount can be raised. With it, the 

 hall and a good lot of exhibits, a suc- 

 cess is assured. 



Maurice Fuld is on his vacation. 



Israel Bosnosky is in town. 



Mrs. J. Wolf Moore has won the re- 

 spectful admiration of her business 

 associates. It is an art to make those 

 with whom one meets in business go 

 their way rejoicing. 



Mr. Rice's belief in the honesty of 

 mankind, or I should say womankind, 

 has been strengthened by the receipt

 ditions of trade we experience every 

 year during the midsummer months. As 

 soon as stock gets a little scarce, trade 

 seemingly brightens up and the demand 

 gets larger than the supply; then the 

 lorist thinks the spell has broken, but 

 as soon as stock comes in more plenti- 

 fully trade drops back into the same
