Club Meeting. 



The annual banquet of the Spring- 

 field Florists' Club was held in the 

 rooms of the Commercial Club, Monday- 

 evening, November 13. The usual busi- 

 ness session was held, at which the 

 club endorsed the project of acquiring 

 the plot of ground between Limestone 

 street, Union street and Fountain ave- 

 nue from the Big Four Eailroad Co., 

 by the city, for park purposes. The 

 members then adjourned to the dining 

 room, where all did full justice to the 

 menu. The beauty of the tables was 

 greatly enhanced by two huge vases 

 holding products of the Leedle Rosary, 

 splendid blooms of Rhea Reid and gor- 

 geous Golden Chadwick and Yellow 

 Eaton, for which a vote of thanks and 

 appreciation was tendered by the club. 



At the conclusion of the repast, Geo. 

 D. Leedle submitted the final report 

 of the outgoing program committee by 

 suggesting as a topic for general dis- 

 cussion the admission to membership in 

 the club of persons other than profes- 

 sional or commercial florists, such as 

 amateur flower lovers, employees, etc., 

 and thereby broaden the scope and ex- 

 tend the influence of the organization. 

 Charles W. Schmidt, the retiring presi- 

 dent, was introduced as toastmaster 

 and presided in a jovial manner. The 

 recently elected president. Christian 

 Binning, delivered a well prepared ad- 

 dress oin "Progressive Expansion," 

 suggesting many lines of activity along 

 which the club might work with its 

 present membership, and still other 

 lines with an increased membership. 



.Tohn M. Good, while not opposed to 

 an enlarged membership, expressed 

 some misgivings as to the desirability 

 01 members not in some way allied to 

 the profession. Harvey Siegenthaler, 

 who is something of a fish culturist as 

 well as a florist, dwelt upon elaborate 

 and far-reaching lines of expansion far 

 beyond the conceptions of -the promo-. 

 ters of the idea and started some new 

 lines of thought for consideration. Ar- 

 thur J. Todd, lawyer, journalist and 

 amateur florist, stated that he was a 

 member of numerous organizations, but 

 that the Florists' Club is the only one 

 whose policy is entirely unselfish. Geo. 

 H. Mellen, Leman Bradford and Charles 

 W. ITnglaub advocated a restricted en- 

 largement of membership. C. A. 

 Schaefer illustrated his views by an 

 apt story of a darky attempting to 

 fly with a pair of turkey wings. Arthur 



C. Leedle inquired as to the propriety 

 of consolidating or affiliating with the 

 Horticultural Society as a means of 

 mutual betterment, and also spoke in 

 favor of again boosting the annual 

 flower show project. William Mumm, 

 of Columbus, commended the work of 

 the club. 



President Binning announced his ap- 

 pointment of standing committees as 

 follows: Program, H. F. Good, C. C. 

 Leedle and C. A. Schaefer; entertain- 

 ment, Charles W. Schmidt, J. F. Busin- 

 ger and Leman Bradford; membership, 

 Geo. H. Mellen, J. M. Good, Geo. D. 

 Leedle, C. P. Bethard and Roy Mc- 

 Gregor; grievance, Opha Jackson, B. C. 

 Blake and John Doyle; publicity, Geo. 



D. Leedle, A. J. Todd and Geo. H. 

 Mellen. Ge Dale.
