plans are under way for a rousing wel- 

 come to all who come. 



The publicity committee, with I. S. 

 Hendrickson as chairman, has met with 

 much encouragement in its effort to in- 

 crease the Thanksgiving trade. The il- 

 lustrated posters were in every retail 

 window and copies have been sent for 

 from a dozen other cities. The move- 

 ment, of which Wallace R. Pierson is 

 the father, is spreading and if results 

 are up to expectations a strong effort 

 will be made to have the Christmas 

 work universal. 



The verdict of the retail trade last 

 week was decidedly optimistic. The 

 horse show, many notable balls and 

 banquets, and several weddings kept 

 the retailers active. 



The large hotels have never decorated 

 so lavishly and they have made their 

 palm displays permanent. Grand palms 

 are in every hostelry of prominence, 

 and bay trees, boxwood and ivy are 

 unstintedly ultilized for outdoor adorn- 

 ment. If an up-to-date florist can 

 secure the floral and decorative con- 

 tract for one of these hotel palaces, it 

 is ' ' sufficiency. ' ' The rest of his busi- 

 ness is "velvet." 



The nurserymen have much cause to 

 celebrate Thanksgiving this year. They 

 are still shipping and planting. Bob- 

 bink & Atkins, of Rutherford, say there 

 has never been such a season in their 

 fifteen years' experience, nor anything 

 approaching it. 



A new bouquet called The Suffragette 

 is one of M. A. Bowe's latest creations. 



Peter Mallon has opened an elaborate 

 store at 640 Fulton street, at the corner 

 of Lafayette avenue, Brooklyn. His 

 son, former manager for Trepel at 

 Gimbel's, is associated with him. The 

 display windows are the largest in the 

 city. 



The gardeners of New York and 

 vicinity have arranged for a banquet 

 and bowling tournament at Thumm's 

 alleys, Thirty-first street and Broadway, 

 early in December. 



Bowling clubs are numerous here this 

 season, Flatbush, Astoria, Rutherford, 

 and now Yonkers, all have good, ac- 

 tive clubs. But the New York Florists' 

 Club to date has failed to enthuse even 

 a baker's dozen out of a membership 

 of over 300. 



All the wholesale cut flower houses 

 in Brooklyn appear to be prosperous 

 and are handling large quantities of fine 

 mums, roses and carnations. Some of 

 the best carnation growers on Long
