Tn the December American Maga- 4ihe appears an article by Ida M.

the flowers were all crowded together in stiff designs, after the manner of flu neral pieces, and surrounded by paper collar with lace edges
 That was, let's see-oh, going on 100 years ago when crinolhies and skirts. not made to sit down in, were the vogue;
 When
 A woman was upholstered, rather than gowned, and the draperies of today be- longed to stories of Caesar and his court and were permissible only on the stage.
 The stiff bouquet was in keeping with the stiff upholsteries and the only thing that didn't look stiff and formal was the young bride herself.
 She has always been charming in spite of her clothes.
 The bride and the debutante fared equally as badly when 1t came to the for mai bouquet
 Gradually these bouquets nave taken on new lines;
 From the little tight creations they emerged slowly into the larger bouquet still stiff as a board, but with silver vase handle. so that the bride when she was asked to dance after the wedding feast, might deposit her bouquet on the table and "trip the light fantastic to her hearts content
 You've seen pictures of the brides bou- quet like I'm talking about in an old Godey's Lady's Book I'm sure. ransacked away with great-grandmothers things years and years ago.
 Haven't you?
 The brides bouquet has grown and grown these last hundred years until now
 Dear me!
 It is nearly as large as the bride her. self.
 Take the brides of the past winter, and of the present June time. which is bride time. and recall their tremendous them walking down a stately church aisle. carrying one of those little peanut bouquets with silver hapdle like grand mother used to carry!
 Wouldn't it be funny?
 Think of the little debutante with her arms full of great. huge. long-stemmed American beauties.
 I guess the girl who carried these, is glad that grandmother's style went out years ago.
 Of course you always have this to think of.
 hundred years from now if your grandchildren should happen to pick up an old photograph of you taken in your wedding dress with your mammoth shower bouquet, you will look just as ridiculous as your own grandmother g pictures look to you today!
 It takes dozens and dozens of roses to make the brides bouquet of today and fl seems next to impossible to get 1t too large.
 It is carried, Of courss, on the left arm.

 q can imagine nothing stiffer or homller than bouquet of camelias," ob- served.
 Your imagination is correct in that matter" said MT. Scales "A bouquet was ordered then according to inches six. eight, 10 or 12 inches in diameter. Boxwood formed the outline. We first made a holder. and then the boxwood was formed about this. perfectly even and perfectly smooth. Tt was trimmed off and just as stiff as board Then the flowers were taken separately and tied on sticks and each stick was put in it's place in the holder. All the flowers used then you see were short stemmed flowers"
 How funny" I remarked. 'T can scarcely imagine anything as hideous in the bouquet line"
 "Oh, they were considered very beau- tiful then," was the reply. ''The first innovation came with the addition of maiden hair fern, adding bit of green as 1t did to the bouquet and the change was very noticeable Asparagus plumesa and asparagus officinalis with white roses was the next step. Twenty-two years ago carnations began to make a bid for favor for the brides bouquet. Today they are very popular for the brides- maids-but they didn't last long for brides bouquets"
 '"rhe large, round bouquet lent itself to many innovations" MT. Seals con from the little. tight. stiff bouquet to the present day shower. l recall having an order once for a brides bouquet for a member of the royal family in Eng land, and 1t was fashioned of orchids and stephanotis florabunda. It was a dis tinct innovation"
 Again there was . period" said MT. Scales. 'when the bridal ring was in vogue. This. however. didn't last long as it made small appeal for favor. It was not strong nor was 1t particularly pretty or effective. It was sort of wreath effect and was worn on the arm. with the prayer Doon euspehuou py iio- bons The only advantage 1t had was that during the ceremony the bride didn't have to hand her flowers to her maid. or matron of honor. to hold for her"
 "The evolution into the shower marked the first step of grace in bridal bouquets. did it not?" I asked.
 Undoubtedly" said MT. Scales Fifty years ago the shower bouquet was intro- duced for the bride and the half shower for the bridesmaids. This gave the florist ample opportunity to display his skill as an artist in. .thS arrangement of bouquets as nox-.x else has ever done. Real artistry can be shown in the shower bouquet from the placing of the tiniest rosebud to the arrangement of the beau-

leaving the right hand free to receive congratulations. and by the time the first 100 guests have paid their respects, the poor little bride is almost ready to drop, that poor left arm with the tre- mendous bouquet having all but broken her down.
 The bride of today looks like a large animated flower pot-a blooming hydran- gea-a blazing azalea-or something equally as voluminous.
 In many cases the shower bouquet that the bride of today carries still re- tains some of the old-fashioned stiffness of the little "cauliflower" affair of yes- terday.
 There is no little silver vase handle to be sure to hold the huge creations. so that when the supper is partaken of the bouquet which has cost dollars and dollars, is tossed aside and handled and picked up by any and everybody who comes along-only to be at last returned to the fair bride, who. according to cus- tom, throws it among the assembled guests just as she is about to depart and the lucky one who catches it, is supposed to be the next fair bride upon whom for tune will smile.
 The "cauliflower" effects used up to some few years ago were first augmented by a bouquet on a larger scale, but still slept formal looking and the same pa- per "choker' with a double lace border, being used.
 The first intimation of the shower" came with the broad satin ribbons att tached. which produced pretty effect, but very stiff one.
 Occasionally now we see this relic of bygone days but not often, the up-to- date bride preferring to be almost hidden with flowers. nodding and entwining her with their beauty and fragrance in the soft folds of her wedding veil
 With the introduction of maiden hair ferns. orchids and lilies of the valley, the brides bouquet took on an entirely new aspect
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-06-14

This was
 When only roses were considered 'the thing for the bridal bouquet.
 But
 As fashions changed more graceful flowers came into prominence and made a bid for recognition, and the evolution of the brides bouquet started
 At one period the debutante's bouquet received considerable jolt when the fan" idea was exploited.
 Of course
 The bride never could have used it. but 1t was a very unique design for the young miss making her first bow to so- ciety and was taken up by quite num- Der, but soon gave way to the shower"
 So--
 It will readily be seen that with every decade. the brides and the debutantes bouquet has increased in size and within the past 10 years has grown with the rapidity of a mushroom
 Nothing adds so much to a wedding whether 1t be at church or at the home of the bride-as beautiful flowers, and hundreds and hundreds of dollars are now laid aside for the fashionable wedding decorations, while small fortune is her attendants and for the "boutenaires'' for the groomsmen and ushers.
 The up-to-date florist, of course, keeps apace with every changing fashion in flowers. just as the modiste does with gowns and the milliner with bonnets, and it is to him we look for information when it comes to styles in flowers"
 Certainly Birmingham Is rich in this respect for our florists are known to he as progressive and clever in their trade as any in the cou1try.
 Prominent in this profession is Mir. Hugh Scales, of the Hugh Scales Floral company, whose knowledge of flowers is surpassing.
 His wide experience and unusual talent for such things. amply fit him for the enviable position he occupies in the flower world of Birmingham, and a word from him on any subject connected with flow CTS is always reliable, accurate and inter- esting.
 Mir. Scales chatting about the changing styles in brides bouquets ( few days ago said:
