in front of Max Spanner's attractive 

 Summit street shop, when some brides' 

 bouquets made of artificial flowers 

 caught fire and threatened to destroy 

 the place. The cause of the entire dis- 

 play, according to Mr. Spanner, was an 

 inoffensive cat, which is a great pet of 

 Max's. Alongside the bouquets, Mr. 

 Spanner had burning candles, and the 

 cat, in a playful mood, started playing 

 with the streamers, with the result that 

 it soon became too hot for Mr. Cat. 

 The fire was called to Mr. Spanner's at- 

 tention by shoppers on the street out- 

 side, and with the valiant assistance of 

 Emil Kuhnke, the local grower, the con- 

 flagration was extinguished before any 

 material damage had been done. Mr. 

 Spanner reports that business on the 

 whole has been satisfactory, especially 

 the Easter trade. He has had some 

 magnificent display windows of late, 

 which have attracted the attention of 

 pedestrians. Mr. Spanner is fortunate 

 in having a good location, where there 

 are a great many people passing. 



Local florists are gradually beginning 

 to awaken to a realization of the fact 

 that just as the trade made Mothers' 

 day what it is, just so the trade will 

 have to work to keep this day up to 

 the standard and on the increase as a 

 flower day. The work accomplished in 

 this line by the illuminating articles on 

 this subject published from time to time 

 in The Eeview is appreciated by local 

 readers. Florists here are doing all in 

 their power to increase the business of 

 this day and at the same time divert 

 the trade from the white carnation. All 

 the announcements in the papers fol- 

 lowed out the advice of The Eeview and 

 did not mention carnations as essential. 

 All delivery cars are carrying pennants 

 advertising Mothers' day, and posters 

 in the display windows and in the in- 

 teriors announce the same fact. It is 

 a pity, however, that wholesalers raise
