Association, laid before the clul) the 

 plans of this committee, all of which 

 were approved. All arrangements liave 

 been completed for the annual banquet 

 of these associations. This banquet will 

 be held at Hotel La Salle, January 22. 

 Cost, .$3 per plate, including dancing 

 and entertainment. There will be a 

 ladies' theater ])arty on the evening of 

 Januarv 21. The principal concern 

 seemed to be the local exhibits and, 

 after a thorough discussion of this ques- 

 tion, I'resident Waters appointed the 

 following committee to secure carna- 

 tion exhibits for the show: A. J. Zech, 

 Guy French, Geo. J. Ball, Paul R. Klings- 

 porn. This committee has been given 

 instruction to do everything possible to 

 insure a creditable display of carna- 

 tions from this district. 



President Waters put on a drive for 

 members for the Illinois State Florists' 

 Association and as a result A. T. Pyfer, 

 at this meeting, succeeded in adding 

 nine new members to this organization. 



George Asmus made a rousing appeal 

 for a permanent home for the club. 

 This matter was placed in the hands of 

 Mr. Asmus and the trustees for further 

 investigation. The committee is to re- 

 port at the February meeting. 



The meeting February 5 has been set 

 aside as the annual novelty night. Guy 

 French, chairman of the good of the 

 club committee, will be in charge of 

 this aflfair. Growers who have novel- 

 ties to show should make arrangements 

 to exhibit them. 



Vaxious Notes. 



Again there are reports of a plan on 

 foot to organize a new wholesale house 

 among growers not now holding share 

 interests in any of the existing institu- 

 tions. The lack of a manager of recog- 

 nized ability seems to be the chief dif- 

 ficulty. 



"They tell me there are a lot of new 

 flower buyers this year," said John G. 

 Poehlmann; "I wonder how many are 

 being educated by the retailers to be 

 .')0-cent customers — how many to be 5- 

 doUar buyers?" 



Meyer & Dramm Co., Elmhurst, has 

 arranged to plant 10,000 of the new 

 Butterfly rose to be grown next season 

 for the E. C. Amling Co.
