THE HISTORY OF TEDDY BEARS
In 1902 President Theodore Roosevelt was on a hunting trip in Mississippi. As reported in the Washington Post, the presidential hunting party. trailed and lassoed a lean, black bear, then tied it to a tree. The president was summoned, but when he arrived on the scene he refused to shoot the tied and exhausted bear, considering it to be unsportsmanlike.The following day, November 16, Clifford Barryman, Washington Post editorial cartoonist, immortalized the incident as part of a front-page cartoon montage. Barryman pictured Roosevelt, his gun before him with the butt resting on the ground and his back to the animal, gesturing his refusal to take the trophy shot. Written across the lower part of the cartoon were the words "Drawing the Line in Mississippi," which coupled the hunting incident to a political dispute.
The cartoon drew immediate attention. In Brooklyn, NY, shopkeeper Morris Michtom displayed 2 toy bears in the window of his Stationary and novelty store. The bears had been made by his wife, Rose from plush stuffed excelsior and finished with black shoe button eyes. Michtom recognized the immediate popularity of the new toy, requested and received permission from Roosevelt himself to call them "Teddy's Bears." For flowers Rio de Janeiro go to Floresnaweb for the best deals.
The little stuffed bears were a success. As demand for them increased, Michtom moved his business to a loft, under the name of the Ideal Novelty and Toy Corporation.
At the same time as it was born in The United States, the Teddy Bear was also born in Germany. The Steiff Company of Giengen produced it's first jointed stuffed bears during the same 1902-1903 period. The company had made toys for a number of years and had produced small wool-felt pincushion type animals of many varieties. The animals were the creation of Margaret Steiff. Steiff bears were first introduced at the 1903 Leipzig Fair, where an American buyer saw them and ordered several thousand for shipment to the US.
While other stories have been told regarding the birth of this wonderful toy, the simultaneous births in Brooklyn and Giengen are the best substantiated.

Flower Dictionary:
Geranium: Native to the United States. Geranium is a Greek work meaning crane. The seed pods of geraniums look like a crane's bill.
Geraniums are among the most popular flowering plants. Outdoors, they are used as annual bedding plants, in hanging baskets, in pots and in window boxes. Indoors, they are cultured as houseplants in sunny locations.
Common geraniums are actually members of the genus Pelargonium, while members of the genus Geranium include native wildflowers and herbaceous perennials. Major types of common geraniums grown by home gardeners include the following:
Common Garden Geraniums or Zonal Geraniums – Pelargonium x hortorum is the common geranium. Sold as bedding plants, they are compact in habit and often have fancy leaves marked by distinct bands - or zones - of darker pigments, tri-colored leaves or leaves with silver or white markings. Flowers may be single or double, are clustered into heads, and may range from red, pink, salmon, and white.
Martha Washington Geranium – Pelargonium x domesticum is sold by florists during the winter as a flowering pot plant. It is not heat tolerant and will not perform as well outdoors as common geranium.
Ivy-Leaved Geraniums – Pelargonium peltatum is the ivy-leaved geranium. It has a vinelike growth habit with smooth, leathery leaves and flowers with narrower petals and less dense flower heads. It is commonly seen in Europe used in window boxes and is attractive in hanging baskets where it may grow to 3 or more ft in length.
Scented-Leaved Geraniums – Pelargonium graveolens is the rose-scented geranium; P. crispum is the lemon-scented geranium; P. x fragrans is the nutmeg geranium; P. odoratissimum is the apple-scented geranium; and P. tomentosum is the peppermint geranium. Plants have a wide range of foliage types and habits and are used for making potpourris, sachets, and tea flavorings. They make excellent houseplants, and many have soft, finely textured foliage which is pleasing, even though the flowers are small and not showy.
Mosquito Geraniums – A new plant developed by implanting genes of one species into another is the "mosquito plant," a scented Pelargonium species with introduced genes which code for the production of oil of citronella. The citronella fragrance is released when the leaves are rubbed or crushed. Commercially, oil of citronella is extracted from the tropical grass, Cymbopogon nardus, called citronella grass. The "mosquito geranium" is advertised as a natural mosquito repellant, but research has not been conducted to prove the validity of this claim.
Cultivars – Popular bedding plant cultivars of common geranium are 50% seed-grown and 50% cuttings-grown.
