Fritz Kramer, the oldest employee of 

 the Cliieaj^o Flower (irowers' Associa- 

 tion, celebrated his silver weddiii}^ an- 

 niversary July 7. There was another 

 wedding ceremony, in church, just like 

 the one twenty-five years ago. 



A. B. C. Miller drove his Cadillac to 

 Angola, Ind., to spend the week end

 A fisher sits over his rod in the window 

 of the Briggs Floral Co., at Sheridan 

 road and Broadway, and only a close in- 

 spection reveals the pond to be a plate- 

 glass mirror instead of water. 



The hot weather brought florists many
