aging. President George B. Windier 

 opened the meeting at 2 o'clock, with 

 twenty-five members present. After 

 the regular routine business had been 

 transacted and the different committees 

 had made their reports, the chairman 

 called upon F. W. Brockman, chairman of 

 the St. Louis Horticultural Society, for a 

 few remarks on the coming flower show, 

 to be given next month by the society. 

 Mr. Brockman responded in his usual 

 happy manner and made a good impres- 

 • sion on the members, who at the close of 

 his talk promised to assist the Horticul- 

 tural Society in making its show a 

 success. J. F. Ammann responded to 

 the remarks of Mr. Brockman and be- 

 came much enthused during his talk and 

 pleaded that all the members unite and 

 work for the success of the coming show. 

 Ex-President Young also made an inter- 



esting talk regarding the success of the 

 flower show, Mr. Brockman, before leav- 

 ing, was given a vote of thanks for his 

 attendance and was presented with a 

 handsome bunch of dahlias by H. Jenne- 

 mann, of Webster Park. 



The president appointed a committee 

 of three to attend to a display table of 

 the Florists' Club at the flower show. 

 The committee consists of W. C. Young, 

 F. H. Weber and G. B. Windier, the 

 president to take charge of the club's 

 interest during the show. The trustees 

 were instructed to prepare, for the next 

 meeting of the club, a lunch for the 

 members and visiting florists, who will 

 be in the city attending the flower show, 

 as the regular meeting takes place Thurs- 

 day of the show week. Messrs. Bentzen, 

 Ostertag and Schoenle will have charge 

 of that part of the entertainment. The 

 chairman instructed J. F. Ammann to 

 prepare a paper for the next meeting on 

 "What Do the Retailer, Wholesaler 

 and Grower Derive from Flower Shows." 

 Mr. Ammann accepted the task with 

 much pleasure. The treasurer's report 

 showed the club to be in good financial 

 condition. The question box, as usual, 

 brought ont interesting discussions. 



President Windier was much pleased 

 with the first meeting over which he pre- 

 sided. The next meeting of the club will 

 take place Thursday afternoon, Novem- 

 ber 11, at 2 o'clock.
