DETROIT. 



TheMarka. 



Business has been excellent. While 

 nothing startling was done in the way 

 of wedding decorations, formerly so 

 prominent in June, still numerous 

 smaller jobs kept many busy. Musicals 

 and commencement exercises aided in 

 using up much stock. Peonies and peas 

 appear to be the most popular for this 

 purpose. 



Stock of all kinds is fairly plentiful, 

 the only scarcity perhaps being on white 

 peas. SmUax has been in big demanu 

 for decorative purposes. 



Qub Meeting. 



The meeting of the D. F. C, held 

 Monday evening, June 21, was well at- 

 tended, considering the extremely hot 

 evening. Vice-President Michael Bloy 

 presided in the absence of President 

 Brown. 



Frank J. Eosser was unanimously 

 elected a member. Mr. Pautke had the 

 names of three new candidates, John 

 Davidson, John Chalmers and Mike Sulli- 

 van. 



Mr. Pochelon thought we should have 

 some blooming plants now, and started 

 quite an interesting discussion ' on this 

 subject. A paper, entitled ' ' The Ad- 

 vancement of the Ketail Business," was 

 read by Frank Danzer. He stated that 

 the florists' business in America prac- 

 tically started in Philadelphia in 1824, 

 and now the volume of business done an- 

 nually amounts to nearly $50,000,000. 

 Mr. Danzer believes the business has a 

 future which lies with the florists them- 

 selves. We need a larger variety of 

 flowers before we can increase our busi- 

 ness, said the essayist.
