DR.. Crowther was conspicuous for
his absence at the Roosevelt meeting
Friday night. We trust, however,
that Boss Strong will not take this
remark as an excuse to have publish
ed in big type that the Perth Amboy
assemblyman is still with the ma
chine. DR.. Crowther would be well
coined into the New Idea" camp
along with all other republicans of
whatever faith, creed or color. But
his position thus far has been like the

Ribbons va Flowers.

Florists no longer content to deco
rate flowers with several dollars
worth of ribbon. That cannot be
made to cost enough, whatever the
quality OF the ribbon may be. So It
has become the fashion this spring
to tie up the boxes in ribbons. From
the most expensive shops there are
sent out now boxes bound at one end
with broad ribbons which add at
least several dollars to the price of
each box. Sometimes small punches
Of the flowers inside are tied under
the ribbon as an index to the contents
OF the box.
