CLUB OF BOSTON; ANNUAL 

 PICNIC. 



The long anticipated picnic of tlie 

 Boston Club is nearing its close as we 

 go to press. About 200 of the mem- 

 bers with their wives and children 

 have been enjoying themselves at Dor- 

 chester Park, watching the games and 

 romping under the shelter of the oak 

 forest with which this picturesque park 

 is shaded. The committee in charge 

 of the events were J. W. Duncan, Rob- 

 ert Cameron, Duncan Finlayson, R. S. 

 Edgar. M. Fuld, W. Downs, James 

 Wheeler, Wilfrid Wheeler, H. M. Rob- 

 inson. Official starter, Peter Miller, 

 and official handicapper, Wilfrid 

 Wheeler. In addition Kenneth Fin- 

 layson kept score for the quoits game 

 and Mr. Flood was the power behind 

 the megaphone through which the an- 

 nouncements were made. The boys' 

 race, under 15 years, was won by W. 

 Iliffe, George Palmer and Thos. West- 

 wood being second and third respec- 

 tively- Winners in girls' race, under 

 15 years, were Florence Lumsden, Har- 

 riet Coles and Florence Eisenhart. 

 Married ladies won in the following 

 order: Mrs. Robert Edgar, Mrs. D. 

 Whyte and Mrs. Eisenhart. The 

 potato race winners were Catherine 

 Lally, Jean Westwood and Louise Ei- 

 senhart. Ladies over 16 years who 

 sprinted 100 yards and won one, two, 

 three, respectively, were Louis Eisen- 

 hart, Anna Robb and Jean Westwood. 

 Boys under 15 years won out in the 

 following order: Wm. Iliffe, Thos. 

 Westwood and George Palmer. Boys 

 under 7 years, J. L. McKenzie, W. 

 Westwood and Charles Clark. Girls 

 under 7, Edith Iliffe, Marjorie Iliffe 

 and Ruth Cartwright. The game of 

 baseball between the commercial and 

 private men was won by the latter, 7 

 to 6. A most regrettable accident 

 marred the quoit games, Kenneth Fin- 

 layson, who was at the post keeping 

 score, being struck by a quoit on the 

 side of his head, sustaining a severe 

 cut. The remainder of the events will 

 be duly reported in our next issue.

CHICAGO FLORISTS' CLUB PICNIC. 



The Chicago Florists' Club held its 

 annual picnic at Morton Grove, 111., on 

 Sunday, July 21. About five hundred 

 florists and their wives, sweethearts 

 and also the children made merry the 

 whole day. Quite a number took ad- 

 vantage to visit the Poehlmann Bros. 

 Co 's greenhouses. Refreshments were 

 served lavishly all day. 



A guessing contest on a jar of beans 

 made lots of tun, and when opened 

 and counted in the presence of the 

 people by Mrs. T. E. Waters the closest 

 guesser was found to be E. C. Pruner, 

 with the following as next, the second 

 prize being divided between Miss M. 

 Klunder, Mrs. C. A. Klunder, Al. Eb- 

 ling and Miss C. Eisman. The tug of 

 war was a heated contest, the retailers 

 winning by a small margin. The ball 

 game, retailers vs. wholesalers, re- 

 sulted in a score of 5 to 2—6 innings. 

 The other events were as follows:
