They sold out clean to retail florists. It 

 is a Mothers ' day crop which can be 

 handled within a month's time. 



A vacant shop on Montrose avenue 

 behind Harry ('. Rowe's store at the 

 corner of Sheridan road was used to 

 hold the palms and other foliage plants 

 while the Mothers' day stock was dis- 

 played to the public. Crowded with 

 stock before the holiday, the store was 

 cleaned out Sunday evening. 



At the thronged interseetion of Sheri- 

 dan road and Wilson avenue, in the new 

 Sheridan-Plaza hotel, Albert Hall found 

 a heavy demand for cut flowers at 

 Mothers' day. The paraders find his 

 shop convenient. 



A ease of mistaken identity caused an 

 error in the report of the Chicago Flo- 

 rists' Club dance in last week's Review. 

 The winner of the corsage contest was 

 Miss Elinore Pagels, the 12-year-old 

 niece of Allie Zech. Second prize was 

 taken by Mrs. Peter Pearson and third 

 prize by Mrs. T. Cuneeu, of Percy Jones, 

 Inc. It was inadvertently omitted that 

 A. Lange arranged Hans Jepsen 's sweet

peas in the prize-winning Mothers' day 

 basket. 



A few of the firm's celebrated baskets 

 and not many geraniums were all that 

 decorated the store of Stollery Bros., 

 when it closed Mothers' day. It was 

 never more thoroughly cleaned out. 



The Allied Florists' Association last 

 week purchased 4,000 blooms for dis- 



tribution by members of the American 

 Legion at the Cook county hospital on 

 Hospital day, May 12. 



"Ten thousand plants that last" 

 were advertised for Mothers' day at 

 Schiller's north side store. The few 

 left at the close of the holiday's busi- 

 ness were inadequate to dress the big 

 Agmco conservatory.
