Paddy Patton, of Smith's, has gained so much fame of late among the local trade that he is writing a new poem entitled "Fame and Fortune Are but the Ashes of Roses," which he expects to read at the Florists' Club next meet- ing and which he says is sure to bring out a large attendance. C. E. De Wever, of Clayton, Mo., who grows thousands of pot roses and gladioli in season, has a fine house of crimson rambler and Tausendschon roses, which will be right for the Easter trade. The Lady Florists' Home Circle held its meeting at the home of Mrs. Theo. Miller, March 11, with a full attend- ance. A pleasant afternoon was spent. The next meeting will take place one week ahead of the regular time, April 1. This meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. J. J. Beneke. Philip Goebel is now head of the parks which come under the supervis- ion of the city water department, hav- ing succeeded Aug. Kunz, January 1. Mr. Goebel's many friends in the trade were much pleased when the announce- ment was made. Vandevoort's department store had its spring opening last week. The pretty floral decorations were executed by workmen in their floral department, under the direction of David Geddes, the manager. "Billy" Craig, of Robert Craig Co., Philadelphia, called on the trade last week, in the interest of his firm. James Young, head of C. Young & Sons Co., says their seed and cut flower departments put in a busy week. Their mail orders were quite heavy. W. J. Pilcher, F. Vennemann, George Madsen, Pierre Schneider, W. E. Ogle, Gust. Grossart and John Connon were the suburban members who attended the club meeting last week. Pierre Schneider, manager of the Oakland Floral Co., at Oakland, says he will be just right with a fine lot of fancy Butterfly sweet peas for Easter and the cut will be heavy. H. Young & So
