The marriage August 22 of Leonard 

 Koehler and Cornelia Kyan, both of 

 Kyle & Foerster's staff, caused no* lit- 

 tle surprise to their friends in the 

 trade. Miss Lula Geisen succeeds Miss 

 Ryan in the oflBce. Mr. Koehler is on 

 the job and is busy receiving con- 

 gratulations. 



O. P. Bassett and his wife, of Pasa- 

 dena, Cal., arrived in Hinsdale August 

 22. Here they will be the guests of 

 C. L. Washburn and his wife, who were 

 so recently their guests. The trip from 

 Pasadena was made in an automobile 

 and it apparently agreed with Mr. Bas- 

 sett, as he was a visitor on the Chi- 

 cago market the day following his ar- 

 rival, and August 24 motored to Aurora 

 with Mr. Washburn. Miss Schreiber, 



of the Chicago office, has been suffering 

 severely with an ulcerated tooth, which 

 compelled her absence for two days last 

 week. A new office assistant in the 

 person of Miss Ruth Wattman has been 

 added to the force. Miss Harper has 

 returned from her outing in Wisconsin. 



H. Wallace, manager of the W. L. 

 Palinsky greenhouses, 2865 Palmer ave- 

 nue, left August 24 for a week's visit 

 to Battle Creek, Mich. Miss Sadie 

 Palinsky has returned from her vaca- 

 tion at Lake Zurich, Wis.

 houses, 1441 East Seventieth street, con-

 Morton Grove, August 23. 



E. H. Meuret, Park Ridge, president 

 of the Chicago Flower Growers' Asso- 

 ciation, has received his new automo- 

 bile and is hunting deserted roads on 

 which to learn to run it. Not to be 

 outdone, Fred Schramm has purchased 

 a horse. 



O. J. Friedman, 522 South Michigan 

 avenue, has a most attractive line of 

 ceramics, including a large variety of 

 table fountains, vases and figures, on 

 display in a window at 202 South 

 Michigan avenue. An assortment of 

 ornamental garden accessories and novel 

 baskets adds interest to the window.
