Field Spreads Out. 



An elaboration of tne plans for Mar- 

 shall Field's new flower section is re- 

 ported, after the department has been 

 in operation for two weeks. With the 

 original equipment the company in- 

 stalled in the flower section, it was 

 apparent that funeral designs and wed- 

 ding work could not be undertaken. 

 Arrangements are being made, how- 

 ever, to make the department more 

 complete and to add equipment which 

 will allow the larger work being turned 

 out. A basement flower section will 

 be opened shortly. An attractive foun- 

 tain of concrete and tile has been 

 placed in the third-floor flower section 

 to provide a moist atmosphere, and for 

 decorative purposes. This was done at 

 the instance of R. G. Kootz, who is in 

 direct charge of the section. Mr. Kootz 

 is a young man, but has had an older 



man's experience in the business. He 

 spent some years with J. C. Schmidt, 

 Unter den Linden, Berlin, and later was 

 with the Fleischman Floral Co., Chi- 

 cago. 



Various Notes. 



The death of W. L. Palinsky is re- 

 corded in the obituary column this

 to be in failing health, but his demise 

 was unexpected. He had many friends 

 in the trade. 



R. E. Kurowski, vice-president of 

 the Moninger Co., returned October 12 

 from a trip to Cincinnati during which 

 the local branch office there was set 

 going. A well known local contractor. 

 Otto Hirschfeld, is the manager. The 

 office is on the twenty-third floor of 

 the newest and tallest building, the 

 Union Central Trust, from which point 

 of vantage Mr. Hirschfeld expects to
