HACKENSACK, N. J. 



Harold S. Mabie, proprietor of the 

 store which bears the name of the 

 Birchwood Gardens, has entered into 

 partnership with C. W. Wells, and the 

 new firm has secured a lease on one of 

 the large stores in the new Lyric the- 

 ater building, which is now under con- 

 struction. The firm has also purchased 

 the business formerly conducted by F. 

 & I. Kuhnert and will consolidate the 

 two stores at the new location, under 

 the name of Birchwood Gardens Co. 

 Upon completion of the new store they 

 will have one of the finest display win- 

 dows in town. 



They have secured the services of 

 Mr. Hankey, an expert decorator and 

 designer, and will also retain Mrs. 

 Heater, who has had charge of the 

 Birchwood Gardens store ever since its 

 opening. Mr. Wells will take charge 

 of the financial end and will represent 

 the house on the road, as the Birch- 

 wood Gardens has built up a large ship- 

 ping trade throughout the country. Mr. 

 Mabie will spend his time between the 

 store and his range of glass at May- 

 wood. It is his intention to operate his 

 greenhouses independently of the Birch- 

 wood Gardens Co., simply supplying the 

 store with the products of the Maywood 

 place and carrying on a strictly whole- 

 sale business at Maywood.
