i» 



Jolt IS, 1916.

 week, and Mrs. Horton has returned 

 from a most enjoyable visit in Cali- 

 fornia. 



Ed Vilter, of the Zech & Mann force, 

 has the sympathy of the trade in the 

 loss of his mother July 8. The funeral 

 services were held July 11. 



Last week Joseph Ziska, Jr., and wife 

 motored to Algonquin and Carey Sta- 

 tion, m. July 15 he will take his father 

 and his brothers, Raymond and Eugene, 

 on a motor trip to Cedar Eapids, la. He 

 boasts that his car has traveled 26,000 

 miles with only one overhauling. 



The wilds of northern Michigan pos- 

 sess great charm for Max Eingier, of 

 Kennicott Bros. Co., so he slipped away 

 from the market July 12 to visit them. 



Kansas City, Mo., is the vacation 

 ground of Adam Kasper, of the George 

 Reinberg sales force. The next on the 

 list to enjoy an outing is Frank Hagen, 

 who will go to Fox Lake. 



As a result of stepping into a hole 

 while attempting to board a street car 

 last week, D. D. P. Roy is confined to 

 his home with a badly sprained ankle. 



Though he isn't going to call it a 

 vacation, AUie Zech and his wife will 

 motor to Rock Island, July 15, for a 

 visit with relatives. Mike Freres re- 

 turns from his vacation July 16. 



A week's vacation at Fox Lake will 

 begin for Peter Hiles, with D. E. Freres, 

 July 17. 



Visitors to the A. L. Randall Co. will 

 miss a familiar face for two weeks. 

 Ikliss Agnes Corrigan, the telephone op- 

 erator, has gone on her vacation. Her 

 place is being filled by Miss French. 



Last week was reported by Henry M. 

 Hirsch as his heaviest in funeral work 

 since opening the store at 37 East Van 

 Buren street. 



Out on Gunnison street, Peter Pear- 

 son, who has had his best season to 

 date, is beginning the erection of an- 

 other greenhouse that will add twenty- 

 five per cent to his facilities. A spe- 

 cial storage house for bulbs also is to be 

 built. 



Felix Reichling spent July 10 at Du- 

 buque, la. 



Hydrangeas have been a leader with 

 the J. F. Kidwell Co. this spring, the 

 big glass frontage on Michigan avenue 

 having been gay with them ever since 

 Easter. Of the large number of plants 

 flowered only a few remain. 



July 8 there was a celebration at 

 Morton Grove, for Guy W. French, who 

 still makes his home there, was born 

 that day in 1877. 



Fiber tape for tying packages is now 

 being manufactured up to one-half inch, 

 for those who desire something differ- 

 ent. The usual width now used isi 

 three-sixteenths of an inch, according 

 to the Chicago Printed String Co. 



Members of the trade who have heard 

 Miss Latham, of the Chicago Grand 

 Opera Co., singing in Ravinia park may 

 be interested to learn that she is a 

 daughter of Ralph Latham, a well 

 known Minneapolis florist. 



After a six weeks' vacation in the 

 East, the wife of J. E. Quallich, head 

 of the plant department of the A. L. 

 Randall Co., has returned to the city. 

 Mr. Quallich will leave July 15 for a 

 Great Lakes trip. Mathew Schilz, of 

 the green goods department, will leave 

 the last of July for Virginia, where 

 he will make a trip through the box- 

 wood and holly country, contracting for 

 the concern's future supply.
