The Florists' Review 



t>KCEMBER 5, 1912^ 



HOLLY, BOUQUET GREEN, WREATHING, XMAS TREES, Etc. 



Why do Barnard's Xmas decorations lead in quality ? Because we send our own men from 

 Chicago to the different green countries to superintend the selection, cutting, and packing of Holly, 

 Bouquet Qreens, Xmas Trees, etc. They are men of twenty years' experience and are well 

 acquainted with the requirements of the most critical florists. They are instructed that the 

 best is just good enough for our trade. 



EVERGREEN WREATHING, HOLLY WREATHS, ETC.. 



Are made on our own premises, under our owo supervision. They have style ih appearance and are perfect in 

 workmanship. We have the most competent and experienced operators in our employ and can make lowest prices 

 on anything in the Xmas decoration line. 



Our complete book on Xmas decorations and Xmas sundries will be ready Dec. 1 st, and will be mailed free for the asking.

driving his automobile up Fifteenth 

 street last week, lost control through 

 the failure of the steering gear to work. 

 He just made a circle through a barbed 

 ■wire fence and through a vacant lot, 

 «nd, instead of stopping, got the ma- 

 -chine reversed and made another com- 

 iplete circle in the opposite direction, 

 •missing trees and poles and coming out 

 ^n the street without doing any 

 <damage. 



Edward E. Ludwig, who was operated 

 on for appendicitis a week ago, is get- 

 ting along nicely and hopes to be out 

 in a short time. 



A. W. Smith, Jr., has been a victim 

 of grip and has been confined to his 

 home since Thanksgiving. 



William Lauch, of New Galilee, has 

 the sympathy of the trade in the loss 

 of his father, who died November 25. 

 WUliam Lauch was in the growing busi- 

 ness some years ago, but retired when 

 his son took over the business. 



The Florists* Club will nominate its 

 officers at this week's meeting, and, 

 strange to say, there are several candi- 

 dates in the field for the office of presi- 

 dent, which is rather unusual. 



Walter Breitenstein is with Eandolph 

 & McClements during the holidays. 



TJncle John Wyland will raffle a horse 

 and pony, the drawing to take place at 

 Allison Park on Christmas eve. If you 

 meet him, take a ticket. 



Samuel Cape, 4010 Butler street, is 

 the latest to buy an automobile. He is 

 getting a Packard car for delivery pur- 

 poses. 



Mrs. Elliott, the widow of B. A. 

 Elliott, who was in the florists ' business 

 for a lifetime, celebrated her eightieth 

 birthday last week at the home of her 

 flon, Ben L. Elliott. Her children were 

 all with her, with their wives and hus- 

 bands, and spent a delightful evening.
