IMPRESSIONS OF ST. LOUIS. 



St. Louis is a much maligned metrop- 

 olis. The more visitors see of St. Louis 

 the more they like it. St. Louis is a 

 phenomenally well arranged city and 

 well kept, abundantly supplied with 

 public parks and places of amusement. 

 The heat of St. Louis is discovered to 

 exist to a considerable degree in the 

 minds of the outside world. St. Louis 

 is closely connected with the country. 

 You can get on a car in its throbbing 

 heart and ride twenty miles straight 

 and far out away from the noise and 

 bustle of the city, to lakes, rivers, coun- 

 try places and clubs, suburban resorts, 

 through the fresh real country. Those 

 w^ho have never seen Missouri, who have 

 ridden in trolley cars over the flats from 

 Buffalo to Niiagara, from New York to 

 Coney Island or from Chicago to Wau- 

 kegan know nothing of what it means 

 to speed through the country about St. 

 Louis over the various splendid electric 

 routes which radiate here. It is a fact 

 that St. Louis has more beautiful homes 

 than any other city in the world. Many 

 of these homes are palaces. If a Chica- 

 goan or a New Yorker were to go to 

 sleep at home and wake up in, say, 

 Portland place, Westmoreland place, or 

 Vandeventer place in St. Louis he would, 

 I sincerely believe, hesitate before he 

 decided that he was not in paradise. 

 Enough said. 



Impressions have gone abroad that St. 

 Louis hotels have doubled their rates 

 and that hotel accommodations are hard 

 to get. This is not true. The souvenir 

 book, which will be gotten up by the 

 St. Louis Florists' Club and will be in 

 the hands of the members of the S. A. 

 F. by July 15, will show ninety-six ho- 

 tels, where they are located and their 

 prices. The highest priced hotel down 

 town is the Jefferson, which has a ca- 

 pacity of 1,500 and their charges are 

 from $2.50 per day up. The Planters 

 hotel is from $2 per day up. Southern, 

 Lindell and St. Nicholas are $1.50 per 

 day up. The combined capacity of these 

 first-class hotels is 5,000 persons. At 

 the Hotel Rozier, which is across from 

 the convention hall, with a capacity of 

 400, the rates are from $1 per day up. 



The souvenir book will also have a 

 map cf the ground plan of the World's 

 Fair showing the exact location of all 

 the buildings; on the other side showing
