Spanish Moss, sent to Mr. Porter from Daytona, Florida, was used in the decoration. This moss is an air plant and is found clinging to trees, telephone wires, and any other object in the open. It is not a parasite but is moved from one object to another by the wind. It is gray in color and grows in small shreads. In the window of the studio, Mr- Porter has used the tnoss in depicting a beautiful scene, showing Indians, a wigwam, a small lake and trees with the moss hanging from the trees.
