FLORISTS MEET AT AUSTIN. 



We don 't know of any convention 

 that ever meets in this city, says an 

 .\ustin, Minn., newspaper, that is more 

 quiet than the W. B. Perry Florists' 

 Association. The Federated Women's 

 Clubs have their little differences, the 

 Convention of Charities and Correc- 

 tions had its trouble, the Ministerial 

 Association may have its friction, but 

 one couldn't conceive of a florists' con- 

 vention being other than quiet. The 

 florists' work lies with quiet nature, 

 the silent but wonderful manifestation 

 of plant life. When the florists' con- 

 vention convenes no bands are playing 

 a "Hot Time!" No marching bodies 

 with flags and ribbons meet the dele- 

 gates! The mayor never surrenders the 

 keys of the city. There are no ad- 

 dresses of welcome and no programs. 

 No papers are read, no learned discus-

ROCHESTER, N. Y. 



Mention The Review when you write 



sion in set phrase of speech. Nothing 

 of the sort. 



These florists meet twice a year and 

 all of the florists of southern Minne- 

 sota and northern Iowa are members. 

 About fifteen years ago W. B. Perry, a 

 florist of Cresco, invited all his brother 

 florists and their ladies to his place for 

 a social time. Then was organized the 



association which has met twice a year 

 ever since. The convention lasts three 

 days and the only real set business is 

 the election of a president and secretary. 

 Walter S. Hall, of Osage, always is 

 elected secretary and the president is 

 always the florist who does the enter- 

 taining. The next meeting will be at 

 Charles City, la., so M. H. Wetherby is
