The Florists^ Review 



Jdnb 22, 1916. 



pasting had arranged to visit this city 

 on his way home from St. Louis to 

 Buffalo after the Democratic conven- 

 tion. He -was interested with A. F. 

 Poehlmann, N. J. Wietor, George As- 

 mus and others in the United Ferti- 

 lizer Co., originally organized here. 

 Among those who attended the funeral 

 Sunday in Buffalo were Arnold Ringier, 

 W. J. Keimel and George Asmus. The 

 Chicago Florists' Club, of which Mr. 

 Kasting was a member, sent a wreath. 



The mobilizing of the National Guard 

 for service on the Mexican frontier 

 called out A. I. Simmons, who is a cap- 

 tain in the Seventh regiment; Edward 

 Martin, of A. Henderson & Co., and 

 Harry Gardener, of A. T. Pyfer & Co., 

 who are members of the First regfiment. 

 The latter had just started on a vaca- 

 tion. 



A most striking window illumination 

 has been seized upon by George Wien- 

 hoeber. In the center background, sus- 

 pended midway between the floor and 

 the ceiling, is an American flag made 

 of electric lights. With no other illu- 

 mination in use, this flag, framed in 

 greenery and set in darkness, creates a 

 most striking spectacle through the 

 night. 



The corsage rose, George Elger, has 

 proved a profitable specialty with Wie- 

 tor Bros., who this season are adding 

 Hill's Baby Doll as a running mate. 



Such a firm believer in the merits of 

 the Winton' Six is Adolph Poehlmann, 

 of the Poehlmann Bros. Co., Morton 

 Grove, that he ordered another last 

 week. The company has added a 1%- 

 ton truck to its delivery fleet. 



That first-class roses will be unusu- 

 ally good property during July is the 

 opinion of John Michelsen, of the E. C. 

 Amling Co., who says he sees signs that 

 summer business will make another new 

 record this year. 



Boland Poehlmann, son of August 

 Poehlmann, of the Poehlmann Bros. Co., 

 graduated from the Western Military 

 Academy, Alton, 111., last week. Mrs. 

 Poehlmann, Miss Virginia Poehlmann 

 and Earl Poehlmann att«n^jd-the exer- 

 cises. 



If a grower sees a streak of color 

 flashing down the road it will be W. P. 

 Kyle in his new Mercer, delivered last 

 week. 



The best tonic in the wprld, accord- 

 ing to M. C. Gunterberg, is to spend the 

 .week end motoring in the country. As 

 she does this regularly, she should be a 

 competent authority. 



Members of the trade may be sur- 

 prised to learn that Miss Wanda Lyons, 

 who opened an engagement in "A 

 World of Pleasure ' ' at the Palace Music 

 Hall, June 19, was working in a florist's 

 store in Salt Lake City just one year 

 ago, for $6 a week. 



Joseph Ziska, Jr., and Mrs. Ziska 

 spent the week end motoring in the 

 Fox river district. 



D. E. Freres and Jack Beyers en- 

 joyed a fishing trip last week. They did 

 not go far from the city, but report 

 unusually good luck. 



Vacation time is with us. Tony Ada- 

 mitis, of Zech & Mann, starts his days 

 off June 24. 



To facilitate the handling of florists' 

 shipments, George Heinlein has pur- 

 chased another auto truck. 



These are certainly lively days for 

 Louis Heckner. He returned from 

 Council Bluffs, la., June 15 and left for 

 Madison, Wis., June 16. He is plan- 

 ning a visit to Bichmond, Ind., next
