tive displays of yellow and bronze col- 

 orings in tlie retail establishments, and 

 many social affairs for the day called 

 for decorative schemes in yellow and 

 black and large quantities of pompon 

 chrysanthemums. There is a big de- 

 mand for autumn leaves in many of the 

 larger decorating contracts and some 

 particularly artistic work has been 

 done with the rich autumn colorings 

 combiued with mums of different va- 

 rieties. 



Various Notes. 



A large number of special Halloween 

 decorations were done by A. 0. Stein- 

 books. One for a dinner dance at the 

 Fairmont hotel was of pumpkins, pom- 

 pon chrysanthemums and black velvet 

 ribbon. In addition to the regular 

 run of work, this shop has been com- 

 missioned to do a large Sacramento 

 wedding. Judge McLaughlin's daugh- 

 ter is to be married November 14, and 

 something particularly fine has been 

 promised in the way of decorations. 



An interesting example of telegraph 

 service came to light in San Francisco 

 last week. The Tonseth Floral Co., of 

 Portland, Ore., was the recipient of a 

 generous cut flower order to be deliv- 

 ered at the Palace hotel, San Francisco; 

 at 2:52 in the afternoon the order was 

 wired to the MacEorie-McLaren Co. 

 Tlie message was received at 3:12 and 

 the flowers delivered to the guest's 

 room in the Palace hotel by 3:30. One 

 agrees with Fred Bertraud, manager of 

 the store of the MacRorie-McLaren Co., 

 that "speed" is the word in describing 

 the incident. 



The MacRorie-McLarcn Co. took 

 charge of the decorations for an ex- 

 ceedingly interesting wedding which 

 was held at the Bohemian Club, Novem- 

 ber 4. A scene reminiscent of the club's 

 own grove of stately redwood trees was 

 set within the four walls of the club- 

 room; whole redwood trees were trans 

 ported from the Bohemian grove. Palms 

 and woodwardia ferns, oak and pepper 

 leaves were combined to further carry 

 out the forest idea, while chrysanthe- 

 mums in autumn colorings brought 

 vividness into the picture. A special 

 nook in the room was reserved for a 

 bower of marguerites, a graceful com- 

 pliment to the bride, wliose name was 

 that of the flower. 



The shop of F. C. Jaeger & Son, at 

 152 Powell street, while it reports no 

 contracts of unusual size, vouches for 

 a most satisfactory fall season. 



The first dance of the season of tlie 

 St. Francis Assembly, which is again 

 active after a period of somnolence dur- 

 ing the war, was decorated by Julius 

 Eppstein, the St. Francis hotel florist.

 hotel, which was used as the reception
