There was a great demand from surrounding towns for commencement oxereiset and there was also a great deal of funeral work. Prices dropped back to just about what they were be- fore Mathers' day. Roses, carnations and sweet peas are in the market and bringing a good price. Some fine snap- dragoas are aeen and bring a good price. Various Notes. The eoiiperative decorating of the theaters by the florists for Mothers' day prored to be a good business get- ter. The Jefferson was decorated by the Blossem Floral Co., the Strand by the Doswell Floral Co. and the Orpheum by the La«ternier Floral Co. Southern smilax, palms and baskets were used. Mothers' day slides were shown and thus the day was brought before a num- ber of people who, probably, had given no thought to it. Edgar Wenninghoff reports that he was forced to close his store early in the day, as everything was sold and he was unable to obtain any more stock. The Doswell Floral Co. reports that the trade at the cemetery at Mothers' day far exceeded that of any previous year. The weather was ideal and peo- ple took the opportunity of remember- ing their dead. The store was complete- ly sold out of all blooming stock and it was necessary to close early. The Blossom Floral Co. furnished the decorations and bouquets for the mar- riage of Dr. Connett's daughter, of Decatur, Ind. W. J. k M. 8. Vesey are cutting some fine sweet peas. J. C.
