sand, letting the water through more 

 freely, they again had the usual good 

 success, but it was too late to root a 

 surplus. 



Alfred Froehlich returned April 25, 

 after seeing action overseas; and he 

 saw a lot of it, too. He sailed February 

 18, 1918, with Company I of the 16th 

 Infantry, and went into the trenches 

 April 24. They were in the battles of 

 Cantigny, Soissons, St. Mihiel and later 

 the big Argonne-Meuse drive. It was 

 in this drive he was wounded twice, in 

 the leg, and forced to return to the hos- 

 pital, some three miles back. One bul- 

 let went just above the kneecap and 

 the other would have done more damage 

 had it not been for his watch, from 

 which it glanced off. He was in the 

 hospital from October 4, 1918, to Janu- 

 ary 6, 1919, and landed in Hoboken 



April 11. Now he is ready to do his bit 

 in the florists' business. He is the son 

 of Mrs. M. Froehlich, 5527 West Walton 

 street. 



M. A. Eedden, who has the flower 

 store at 820 West Garfield boulevard, 

 has opened his second store, in the 

 Cosmo theater building, at 7940 South 

 Halsted street. He opened before Eas- 

 ter, in time for the big business. 



Fred Stielow, of Niles ^llenter, went 

 to Oklahoma April 26 to look over 

 his oil interests down there. 



Edward Shapiro, who has for five 

 years been with Geo. Fisher & Bro., 

 has left to go to Marshall, Mich., to 

 enter another line of business. Lewis 

 Paskal is taking his place at Fisher's. 



William F. Schofield has turned his 

 limousine and chauffeur over to the Vic- 

 tory loan committee for their use. 



Visitors. 



Miss Emma Broz is a new florist at 

 Peru, 111. She has opened a store, with 

 equipment from the fixtures department 

 of the A. L. Eandall Co., and was here 

 a few days ago on a buying trip. 



James L. Denmead, former banker 

 and present florist at Marshalltown, la., 

 spent several days here last week. The 

 chief purpose of his trip was to meet 

 his family coming home from Florida, 

 but he likes to visit the points of trade 

 interest in Chicago once a year to renew 

 his enthusiasm for the business. 



West Haverstraw, N. Y. — A. I. Brown- 

 sell now has an ideal retail plant and 

 is much encouraged by the favorable 

 showing. This is a striking instance 

 of sticking to the colors.
