28 The Florists^ Review 



';'^V;vx 





AUGUST 24, 1916. ■'•;'*/ 



Peter Reinberg's, the two cool days the 

 early part of last week had a wonder- 

 ful effect on Russell roses. Emil Reich- 

 ling visited Sister Lakes, Mich., last 

 week end. He was accompanied by 

 John Evert, of Evert Bros. 



Members of the trade were glad to 

 see Harry Manheim, of Hoerber Bros., 

 who recently met with an injury to his 

 head, back in his accustomed place. The 

 injury to his boy's leg proved to be a 

 compound fracture and, though serious 

 enough, the doctors expect a perfect 

 recovery. 



Frank Ayers, of C. W. McKellar's, 

 has returned from a most enjoyable 

 vacation. One week he spent on Mack- 

 inac Island, another on a lake trip to 

 Buffalo. 



A contract for the installation of a 

 complete store equipment, including 

 fixtures and refrigerator, for Stuhl- 

 dreher Bros., Mansfield, O., is reported 

 by T. E. Waters, head of the fixture 

 and supply department of the Poehl- 

 mann Bros. Co. 



Not bad summer business when orders 

 for 20,000 gladioli for shipping are 

 booked in one day, thinks Eric Johnson, 

 head of the cut flower department of 

 the A. L. Randall Co. 



Otto Frese, manager of the cut flower 

 department of the Poehlmann Bros. Co., 

 scalded his left arm August 21, but 

 quick action on his part prevented seri- 

 ous consequences. 



An elaborate book entitled "Modern 

 Flower Shops" is being compiled by 

 the A. L. Randall Co. It contains com- 

 plete store designs, layouts and arrange- 

 ments and gives actual examples of how 

 efficient layouts have economized space 

 and made the difference between an 

 attractive and an unattractive store. 

 The book should prove of real value to 

 those contemplating building or remod- 

 eling. 



Reinholdt Schiller leaves for Toronto, 

 Can., the night of August 26. While 

 in the Dominion he may go to Montreal. 

 He expects to be gone two weeks. 



Mrs. Horton, of the Bassett & Wash- 

 burn office, will leave August 26 for 

 Niagara Falls. John Horstman and 

 family are camping on the Kankakee 

 river. 



Miss O. A. Tonner, of O. A. & L. A. 

 Tonner, returned from her outing in 

 Wisconsin August 22. 



During the hot days painters have 

 been busy in the establishment of Ken- 

 nicott Bros Co. and the result is quite 

 refreshing.

David Geddis, who once was with C. 

 A. Samuelson and who is president of
