consignees receiving freight at the 

 Summerdale station. This was on com- 

 plaint and evidence furnished by the 

 florists there and it caused a reduction 

 of 15 cents per ton in the freight paid 

 on coal from the smokeless fields of 

 West Virginia. The principal bene- 

 ficiaries were Peter Reinberg, George 

 Reinberg and the J. A. Budlong estate. 

 Having secured a reduction that put 

 them on the same freight basis as 

 other growers north of town, claims 

 were entered before the commission 

 requesting that a refund be ordered 

 equal to the overcharge during the 

 years 1911, 1912 and 1913. It amounts 

 to a pretty penny. November 14 

 George Reinberg, P. C. Schupp, repre- 

 senting the Budlong estate, and Miss 

 Marguerite Kane McNulty, represent- 

 ing Peter Reinberg, appeared before 

 the Interstate Commerce Commission 

 at a hearing in the Federal building to 

 give evidence in the case. 



The Bowlers. 



Five fiorists as a team are bowling 

 in the North Chicago league this sea- 

 son and November 16 tackled the league 

 leaders, a team that has attracted the 

 attention of the fraternity throughout 

 the city by rolling game after game 

 above 1,000. They did not have to ex- 

 tend themselves to beat our boys three 

 straight, and' the Florists did excellent- 

 ly at that. The score:

The wedding of Miss Adelaide Louise 



Amling and Rev. Jean M. Bailey will 

 take place Thanksgiving day at Trinity 

 church, in Oak Park. Miss Amling has 

 many friends in the trade, as she as- 

 sisted for some time in the office of the 

 E. C. Amling Co., of which her father 

 is president. 



At Morton Grove, Poehlmann Bros. 

 Co. has fitted up a large fioor in the 

 new service building as a factory for 

 the manufacture of florists' supplies, 

 under the management of T. E. Waters. 

 The latest addition is a drying room 

 where ruscus and other materials can 

 be dried by the mechanical exhaustion 

 of the air and moisture in the room, 

 saving considerably in time. 



Friday, the thirteenth, was one of 

 John Zech's lucky days. He devoted 

 it to a round of the trade in Milwau- 

 kee, where Zech & Mann do consider- 

 able business, and had a fine time.
