Weathered, Chas. B. Weathered, president-elect of the New York Florists' club, was born in New York 49 years ago. His father, Thomas W. Weathered, was en- gaged in greenhouse construction and, after receiving a good education, which included a course in engineering, Charles associated himself with his father's busi- ness and succeeded to it when his fa- ther died. The business is now con- ducted under the name of the Weathered Co., the factory being near West Side Avenue station, Jersey City, N. J. Much important work has been done by the firm, including contracts with the United States government for buildings for the Horticultural Department at Washing- ton, D. C. The factory is well equipped for car rying on all branches of greenhouse con- struction and heating. Mr. Weathered is a charter member of the New York Florists' Club and has always taken a deep interest in its welfare. He served for a number of years as its treasurer. A man of a companionable and social disposition, he has made friends and held them, as has been shown by his unanimous election to the office of presi- dent of the club.
