as Republican candidate for president 

 of the county board, the position held 

 by the late I'eter Reinberg. 



Mr. Pollworth Retires. 



April 8 August G. Urbanski, secretary 

 and treasurer, announced in a signed 

 notice that Joseph E. Pollworth is no 

 longer connected with the Florists' 

 Credit Association "as president or in 

 any capacity." Mr. Urbanski, who has 

 made a considerable investment in the 

 Credit Association, states that the busi- 

 ness will be continued under the direct 

 management of Raymond E. Miller and 

 that every effort will be made to have 

 the service, the methods and the per- 

 sonnel such aa to merit the approval of 

 the trade. 



Friends of F. S. Webb, organizer and 



linllder of the Credit Association, who 

 retired a few months ago because of 

 failing health, will regret to hear that 

 Mr. Webb's condition grows steadily 

 worse. 



Various Notes. 



Richard E. Gloede, of Evanston, spent 

 April 8 on the witness stand before the 

 Illinois railway commission in Chicago.

 line is seeking a private right of way 

 through Wilmette and wants to cut 

 across Mr. Gloede 's strip and the ad- 

 joining athletic field of Northwestern 

 University. Mr. Gloede is unwilling to 

 part with a strip 110 feet wide across 

 his place, but will sell all his holdings if 

 given a fair price. 



There were only seven clear days in 



March and ten on which the sun did not 

 shine at all. The percentage of possible 

 .sunshine was only forty-nine. 



Wille-Douglasa, 3954 West Harrison 

 street, is removing to 4108 West Mad- 

 ison street. M. Douglass says they ex- 

 pect the move will result in a consider- 

 able increase in business. 



C. L. Sherer spent twelve hours in 

 I'ittsliurgh last week and came home 

 more than pleased with his trip. Busi- 

 ness he found much better there than on 

 liis last trip. lie carried some state- 

 ments and all but one were paid in full; 

 he obtained an order at each store vis- 

 ited, larger orders, on the whole, than he 

 expected and for the best grades of 

 stock. "The flower business is looking 

 up again," was his comment.
