 Valley for this work ; quality was never better, owing to our

 sii'l it has been there all day since 

 ■June 1, when Henry A. Dreer, Inc., 

 b<san an outdoor rose display. Fifty 

 Varieties in separate vases, all care- 

 fvilly and clearly labeled, compose the 

 displaj'. They give a charming range 

 ot form and color that holds many a 

 busy passerby in rapt admiration for

Various Notes. 



Mrs. A. Farenwald sailed last week 

 to meet her husband on the other side. 

 They are going to Germany together.
