SAN FBANCISCO NOTES. 



[Continued from page 74.] 



corner of Sutter and Powell streets. The 

 general appearance of the place will be 

 greatly improved by the remodeling and 

 refinishing of the salesroom. The ceil- 

 ing is being painted a celestial blue, 

 which the painter says is a perfect rep- 

 lica of a section of sky. The other 

 woodwork will be a verdi green, the 

 color scheme being entirely different 

 from the other stores of its kind in San 

 Francisco. 



At the annual meeting of the Down- 

 town Association, A. J. Eossi, of Peli- 

 cano, Bossi & Co., was elected first vice- 

 president. 



Cohen & Figore say business has been 

 fine at their stand in the Ferry building. 

 They are glad to see violets improving, 

 as this stock is one of the principal 

 items in their transient trade. 



Miss Recardie Lee Murray opened 

 her new store on Geary street, near 

 Larkin street, January 10. The place 

 was thoroughly renovated to suit the 

 needs of her business and is nicely fitted 

 up to show the stock to advantage. This 

 establishment will be conducted as a 

 branch of the stand in the Clift hotel. 



Among the notable holiday events for 

 which A. O. Stein handled the decora- 

 tions was an affair given in the St. 

 Francis hotel. Two rooms on the mezza- 

 nine floor and the Colonial ballroom 

 were used, all three rooms being done in 

 black and white, in futuristic design. 

 White carnations and freesias were used 

 on the tables and black and white 

 streamers shrouded the potted trees 

 which outlined the central dancing 

 space. A pall of orchids and violets was 

 made at the Stein establishment for the 

 funeral of a prominent attorney. 



According to T. C. Holmes, manager 

 of the C. C. Morse & Co. retail store, 

 shipments of seeds from England, 

 France, Belgium and Italy have arrived 

 the same as under normal conditions, 

 and this firm, he says, is preparing for 

 an unusually good spring season. The 

 company has just issued the 1917 seed 

 guide, which is larger and more com- 

 prehensive than any of the previous 

 catalogues. 



The Richard Diener Co., of Kentfield. 

 has issued a new catalogue. It is well 

 illustrated, showing a great variety of 

 gladioli, new carnations, pansics, pe- 

 tunias, etc. S. H. G. 



Tekamah, Neb. — A Fremont news- 

 paper says that Walter Beum and H. V. 

 Chase are going to erect greenhouses 

 here to raise posies for the people and 

 vegetable plants for gardens.
