will continue active to the end of the 

 month. The call for flowers for gradua- 

 tions and weddings has exceeded all 

 past records with them. 



C. A. Samuelson has had some good 

 wedding orders this month. For one 

 decoration June 21 he used eighty dozen 

 peonies. 



Martha C. Gunterburg was maid of 

 honor at the wedding of her sister 

 June 15. 



Vaughan & Sperry report the pres 

 ence in town of Joseph Schuler, grower 

 for William Dittman, at New Castle, 

 Ind. 



The A. L. Randall Co. has stored a 

 large part of the peony crop of the 

 Peterson Nursery. 



A baby boy arrived at the home of 

 Mr. and Mrs. Mike Fink, June 16. The 

 happy father says the boy is to be 

 named for E. E. Pieser. 



A. L. Vaughan is planning a vacation 

 in northern Wisconsin. 



These are the harvest days for the 

 flower stores that cater to the demand 

 for low-priced flowers. Such places as 

 the Busy Bee, at the corner pf State 

 and Monroe streets, are veritable hives 

 of activity. They can buy for $25 a 

 wagonload of such stock as they re- 

 quire, and are doing a big business. It 

 is stated that this Busy Bee store pays 

 $1,000 a month rent, and that the pro- 

 prietor admits to having cleaned up and 

 invested elsewhere $6,000 since the 

 opening, less than two years ago. 



Invitations are out for the marriage 

 of George Heidenreich and Elfrieda 

 Prillwitz at St. Anne, 111., June 26. The 

 groom is one of the old store employees 

 of Bassett & Washburn, and Joseph 

 Einweck, who will be his best man, is 

 also employed there. 



C. M. Dickinson says that the Bouse 

 of E. H. Hunt is more than pleased with 

 the way the trade has taken to its latest 

 specialty, the new brand of glazing 

 putty. 



C. W. McKellar says the demand for 

 orchids for weddings is keeping pace 

 with the supply. 



Poehlmann Bros. Co. says the ship- 

 ping demand is holding up much better 

 than the city trade. This house is look- 

 ing for the summer business to be much I
