 Asmus, H. B. Kennicott, August Koch 

 and Eobert Brenton. 



"N. J. Wietor was elected vice-chair- 

 man of the ways, means and audit 

 committee. E. F. Kurowski was ap- 

 pointed chairman of the reception com- 

 mittee. Payne Jennings was named as 

 chairman of the retail florists' com- 

 mittee. Eobert Brenton was designated 

 as chairman of the special features com- 

 mittee. A. Henderson, George Asmus 

 and N. P. Miller were made a commit- 

 tee of management. 



"Chairman Brenton has many novel 

 attractions in preparation for this ex- 

 hibition and it now seems certain these 

 special features will draw large audi- 

 ences. Chairman Keimel promises an 

 unusually interesting series of lectures, 

 along popular lines, with stereopticon 

 pictures. Chairman Vaughan, of the 

 poster eommittee, reports the poster. 



now in the hands of the lithographer, 

 will be ready on or before October 20. 

 August Koch, of the west side parks, 

 was elected chief of the information 

 bureau. 



' ' Guy W. French, of French & Salm, 

 has been appointed superintendent of 

 the show." 



September Weather. 



From a weather point of view, as it 

 affects trade interests, September was 

 eventful only in the fact that it was 

 the first month since April with a tem- 

 perature above the seasonal normal, and 

 the only one during the entire year in 

 which a maximum temperature of 90 

 degrees was reached. The average 

 temperature actually exceeded that of 

 the previous month of August. The 

 rainfall was fairly well distributed 

 and more abundant than usual. The 

 percentage of sunshine was fifty-five, 

 as compared with the normal sixty- 

 four per cent. 



Various Notes. 



The Masonic Temple again has a 

 flower store, opened October 2, as the 

 Eed Bud Flower & Sweet Shop. The 

 announcement, in the form of a tasteful 

 booklet telling the language of flow- 

 ers, was quite attractive with a red 

 rose bud, symbolic of the name, em- 

 bossed on the cover. The proprietors 

 are W. A. Walters, formerly manager 

 of the Mitchell Street Floral Co., of 

 Milwaukee, and C. H. Lampo, who con- 

 ducts the confectionery end of the 

 venture. 



Business conditions are much better 

 than a year ago, in the opinion of A. T. 

 Pyfer, who says city trade has shown 

 much improvement in the last few 

 days. 



The amalgamation banquet of the 

 Chicago Florists' Club and the Cook 

 County Florists' Association will be 

 given at Hotel La Salle, October 7, at 

 8 o'clock. An excellent program has
