retail street in the world," said Mr. 

 Friedman, one of the originators of the 

 organization. "It is our intention to 

 spend $50,000 or $100,000 a year in pro- 

 moting the avenue." 



A. "t. Pyfer went to St. Paul Novem- 

 ber 11 with the exhibits of the Chicago 

 Carnation Co. He expected to return 

 Thursday, have a day at the store and 

 leave that night for Cleveland, where 

 the carnations are to be staged Novem- 

 ber 15. 



Mrs. Wm. A. Peterson is one of the 

 leaders of the Bethany Girls, a re- 

 ligious organization in which Mr. Peter- 

 son also takes much interest. 



Frank Johnson, of the A. L. Kandall 

 Co., was at St. Paul the first of this 

 week, for the closing days of the flower 

 show there. C. F. McCormick, of the 

 traveling force, was there through the 

 whole show. 



C. W. McKellar has been having an 

 unpleasant time with his feet, due to 

 being on them so much. Commonly the 

 swelling is at the other end when busi- 

 ness begins coming good for a florist. 



J. H. McNeilly, who has for months 

 been defending himself in court against 

 the charges of a woman former em- 

 ployee, is again in doubt about the path 

 of the florist being strewn with roses. 

 Mr. McNeilly runs a flower store in con- 

 nection with a candy and soda shop. 

 He once had quite a catering business 

 in connection. When he has a compe- 

 tent florist and trade is good he thinks 

 the flower business the finest thing he 

 has ever tried, but when he loses his 

 help he quickly gets to a point where 

 he talks about selling out. At present 

 it is a flower store without a florist.

An open-air flower vender ventured a 

 personal assault on one of the principal 

 store buyers in a wholesale house one 

 day last week. The better element 

 among the Greeks greatly deplore the 

 incident.
