The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



March 17, 1910. 



YONKERS, N. Y. 



The first annual dinner of the Yonkers 

 Horticultural Society was held at Park 

 Hill Inn, Thursday evening, March 10, 

 and was voted by all as the best ever. 

 About 100 members and their friends 

 from New York city, Long Island and 

 other places were present. The dining 

 room was tastefully decorated, and much 

 thanks is due W. H. Waite for supplying 

 the plants and W. Macdonald for ar- 

 ranging them. 



All the speakers took occasion to 

 warmly compliment the society on the 

 excellent showing it has made since its 

 start two months ago, and expressed the 

 hope that success would attend the so- 

 ciety in its efforts to hold a show in the 

 fall. A. T. Boddington, the well-known 

 seedsman, acted as toastmaster and his 

 remarks, when introducing the speakers, 

 were both snappy and humorous. The 

 first speaker of the evening was Presi- 

 dent Bennet, who responded to the toast 

 "The Yonkers Horticultural Society." 

 He gave a brief outline of the work ac- 

 complished since the society was formed, 

 saying there were now eighty members, 

 and prophesying great things for the 

 future. Mayor Lennon was the next 

 speaker and congratulated the society on 

 its success, and on behalf of the city 

 offered assistance at the show to be held 

 in the fall. 



The other speakers and their subjects 

 follow: "Kindred Societies," H. E. 

 Bunyard; "The Private Garden," J. 

 Mooney ; ' * The Nurserymen, ' ' James 

 Scott; "The Visitors," Harry P. Tur- 

 ner, of Castle Gould, Long Island; "The 

 Seedsmen," Albert Eickards, of New 

 York city; "The Florists," Louis 

 Milliot; "The Ladies," J. Austin Shaw, 

 of New York city; "The Horticultural 

 Press," J. Pepper, of New York city. 



The entertainment was furnished by 

 the Rickards brothers, comic and senti- 

 mental songs; James Anderson, baritone 

 solos; and W. H. Waite, tenor solos. 



The committee in charge of the din- 

 ner consisted of W. H. Waite, Hamilton 

 Scott, and Peter Macdonald, and much 

 thanks is due them for the great success 

 of the affair. Lee Whitman.
