& Sons, Milwaukee. It also shows the 

 firm's new retail store. Young Mr. 

 Preuss took unto himself a bride a few 

 weeks ago, also a Chevrolet touring car. 

 The three, Mr. Preuss, the bride and the 

 car, made a trip to Chicago and other 

 points south. On their return to Mil- 

 waukee Mr. Preuss and Mrs. Preuss 

 took up their quarters over the store 

 and, though deponent sayeth not, prob- 

 ably the Chevrolet is not far away. 



Rudolph Preuss started in the flo- 

 rists' business in 1892 at the corner of 

 Vine and West Twenty-fourth streets, 

 where his operations at first were with 

 hotbed sashes. A little later two green- 

 houses were built, from which a con- 

 siderable range has developed, now in 

 charge of Oswald Preuss. The store at 

 Twenty-sixth street and Lisbon avenue 

 was opened in January. It was out- 

 fitted in French gray by the A. L. Ran- 

 dall Co., Chicago. A third son, Erwin, 

 also is a member of the firm.

A COMPETITOR FOR LADDIE? 



K'lmcluilcd from pa«c 3.').) 



established itself in a conspicuous posi- 

 tion here. It may be that Eileen can do 

 more than the others have done. 



Miss Low is on her third trip to 

 America. Harry Barnard, whose death 

 was recorded in The Review a few 

 weeks ago, came here annually for many 

 years as the firm's representative. 

 When Mr. Barnard became too old 

 longer to make the arduous journey, 

 Miss Low took up the task. This time 

 she made the trip by way of France, 

 Italy, the Suez canal, India and Japan, 

 arriving at Vancouver. She will sail 

 from New York the latter part of June.
