War Bride Now Expert On Flower Arranging
By GAY PAULEY
UPI Wom.n'i Editor
Now York - Annl Adams
came to America as a war
bride who knew little of the
language of this country and
nothing of the language of
flowers.
Today, she is an expert on
floral arranging, lectures to
women's club groups on the
care and handling of cut flow
ers, and Is president of the
American Women's Florist as
sociation, an organization of
women florists or women mar
ried to florists.
"I began as my husband's
delivery boy," said the 32-year-old
Mrs. Adams, a stun
ning brunette. Actually, she
said she started helping at the
shop to cure homesickness
she longed for her family left
in Luxembourg.
She also helped with the
bookecping and eventually
started filling some of the or
ders which came into husband
Charles' shop in Queens Vil
lage, N. Y.
Now she is so adept that
other florists in the metro
politan area hire her when
they get an order for a big
wedding or party.
Handsome Wreath
'One of the handsomest
wreaths we ever made was
for a funeral," she said in an
interview.
"The deceased was a race
horse. The grief-stricken own
er ordered roses and carna
tions." The Adams shop is a mem
ber of Florists Telegraph De
livery, wires flowers to all
parts of the country , and
through Interflora, to all parts
of the world.
Recent Guests
Gold Hill Mr. and Mrs.
Wilbur Martin had as their
recent guests for several days,
his neice and daughters, Mrs.
Melvin Martin, Miss Sharon
Martin and Bonnie Martin of
Vancouver, B. C, Canada.
The Martins took their guests
to Crater Lake National park
and entertained at a family
dinner at their home on Up
per River road.

order from some teen-agers
who had fled Hungary rim
ing the bloody uprising, but
hud been unable to bring their
mother out of Uudapcst. They
wanted her to be remembered
on Mother's Day.
In turn, they deliver many
orders cabled to the Queens
Village area from overseas.

Mrs, Adiiius said tlmt n do
mestic problem is solved
when a husband uses the lan
guage of flowers; and many a

ment. But she would suggest that
