The Florists^ Review 



Seftehbsb 5, 1012. 



8CRANT0N, PA. 



The Scranton Florista' Club has been 

 having its meetings at the homes and 

 establishments of the different members 

 through the city, but one meeting was 

 held at a little town on the Susque- 

 hanna river, known as Falls. Wm. Mac- 

 Donald, of Moosic, and T. B. McClin- 

 tock, of Scranton, have built a commo- 

 dious double cottage at Falls, and invit- 

 ed the club to enjoy the sports on and 

 around the placid waters of the beau- 

 tiful Susquehanna. The scenery at this 

 point is most charming. The mountains 

 on the east side of the river tower into 

 the skies, while on the west side, where 

 the cottages are, the farming country 

 rises to the foothills of the mountains. 

 The invitation tendered by these gen- 

 tlemen extended from Friday until Mon- 

 day, so that the florists could suit their 

 own time in coming and stay the whole 

 time if they could leave their business 

 that long. This not only included the 

 florists of Scranton, but all of this voca- 

 tion up and down the Lackawanna and 

 Wyoming valleys. We noted the Wades, 

 from Carbondale; Dillons, from Blooms- 

 burg; MacDonalds, from Moosic; Web- 

 ster, from Avoca, and a large majority 

 of the florists of this city were in at- 

 tendance. 



B. E. Cokely, who summers on the 

 hills of Susquehanna county, has re- 

 turned to the city and his brother 

 John is out on his trip through the 

 states. John Cokely 's wife and chil- 

 dren have been spending the summer in 

 her native state, Indiana. G. K. C. 



DETBOIT. 



Louis Rush and George Hampton, Jr., 

 returned from the Chicago convention 

 in Mr. Rush 's touring car in less than a 

 day and one-half. This is making pretty 

 fast time. 



Among those who visited this city 

 after the S. A. F. convention were a 

 party from San Francisco: Julius Epp- 

 stein and wife, Angelo J. Rossi and 

 Dan MacRorie. 



Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Fetters spent sev- 

 eral days, including Labor day, at Mays- 

 day lake, fishing and motoring. 



Wm. Dilger was in Detroit on Labor 

 day, visiting his friends in the trade. 



Robert Smith, chauffeur for E. A. Fet- 

 ters, has been away on a fishing trip. 



All the young ladies on Schroeter's 

 staff decided to get married about the 

 same time, three leaving within a few 

 weeks to prepare for their honeymoons. 



J. F. Sullivan is seldom seen down- 

 town lately. He is putting in all his 

 time at the greenhouses and the plant 

 never looked so well. H. S. 



Sioux City, la. — A swiftly organized 

 bucket brigade extinguished a fire in 

 the Bishop greenhouses, Twenty-eighth 

 and Davis streets, after damage to the 

 amount of about $500 had iJeen done, 

 in the early hours of August 26. The 

 greenhouses are not insured. Mrs. James 

 B, Bishop is the owner. Mr. Bishop 

 died last spring.
