ROCHESTER, N. Y. 



A beautiful chrysanthemum show 

 was held at the store of Geo. T. Bou- 

 cher during week of Nov. 11. The 

 ceiling was covered with lattice work 

 of oak leaves, and on either side of 

 the store and in the show windows 

 were arranged groups of pompons and 

 huge vases of large chrysanthemums. 

 An attractive table was arranged with 

 favors with a background of flags of 

 the Allied nations, and in the center 

 was an electric fountain. The show 

 was largely attended and much ap- 

 preciated by the Rochester people.
