Mention Th» KoTlew wbfn yoo WTlt». 



pleasure of Mr. Johnson 's marriage, Sep- 

 tember 22, at Bedford, Pa. His bride 

 was Miss Laura Shanefelt, whose ac- 

 quaintance he made during one of the 

 first of her frequent visits with relatives 

 in Chicago. After a honeymoon in the 

 east, Mr. and Mrs. Johnson will take up 

 their residence in Kosemont. 



It is customary in such instances to 

 congratulate the groom, but those who 

 do business with Mr. Johnson hold him 

 in such high esteem that perhaps this 

 time they may be permitted also to oflFer 

 felicitations to the bride. 



Association Meeting. 



The meeting of the Cook County 

 Florists' Association, September 17, was 

 largely given to consideration of the 

 tour to the Pacific coast for the S. A. F. 

 convention of 1915. It was decided to 

 go by way of the Northwestern to Den- 

 ver, the Denver & Bio Grande 1«) Sn't 



Lake City, and the Western Pacific to 

 San Francisco, each person to choose his 

 own route returning. The cost is to be 

 $152 for each person. This covers all 

 necessary expenses. Secretary Pyfer 

 was instructed to invite other florists' 

 clubs to join with the association to 

 make up a special train. 



Michael Freres, with the Chicago Car- 

 nation Co., was elected to membership. 



Various Notes. 



While business thus far this autumn 

 has not been rushing, it has been at 

 least as good as last season, according 

 to the E. Wienhoeber Co. There has 

 been steady improvement since Septem- 

 ber 1. 



The Frank Floral Co., Frank Potocka, 

 manager, has been open for several days 

 at the southeast corner of Wabash ave- 

 nue and Lake street, but the formal 

 opening will not be held until September 



26. The first sale produced a dollar bill, 

 which has been framed as a souvenir-

 nan comments on the number of ou'-of- 

 town people who are dropping iii *<> 

 leave retail orders for bulbs. He thinks 

 the country florists can not be pus'aing 

 bulb sales the way they should, 

 "jack Byers, who returned from T( ledo 

 last week, went to Galesburg Septei'iber 

 22, to take charge of the florists' dei'art- 

 ment for the O. T. Johnson Co. 



The arrival of the first bouvardi i ot 

 the season was reported last week. ^7
