THE PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN. 

 The success of our campaign is be- 

 lieved to be phenomenal. It is not 

 only within the observation of florists, 

 it is talked of in many other lines of 

 industry. Our slogan "Say it with 

 Flowers," is said to have a "punch" 

 that is to be envied — just the right 

 thing not mandatory, but so strongly 

 suggestive. Are we taking full ad- 

 vantage of it? There's the rub. We 

 know that we are not, for the reason 

 that too many florists are not suffi- 

 ciently wideawake to lend a helping 

 hand in spreading it. Our commit- 

 tees, officers and many of our enthu- 

 siastic members have "worked like 

 beavers," for a year and a half, in- 

 cessantly, in an effort to make all 

 florists see the wisdom and far-reach- 

 ing effect of our Publicity Campaign, 

 but there are some "logs" .on which 

 teeth as yet have failed to leave a 

 mark. While it is felt that this labor 

 has not been lost, it is fervently hoped 

 that response will materialize very 

 quickly now. How much nicer it 

 would be were those whom we are 

 obliged to designate "non-subscribers" 

 would voluntarily send in the sub- 



scriptions we know they are prompted 

 to make, rather than wait until a per- 

 sonal representative should call upon 

 them. 



To be obliged to cease effort simply 

 for the reason that the requisite funds 

 were not forthcoming would mean 

 nothing less than disaster. Our regu- 

 lar and persistent reminder to a for- 

 getful public has worked wonders for 

 the florists' trade. We must keep the 

 work going and you, Mr. Nonsubscrib-, 

 er, surely will not refuse to share 

 in the expense. Think of Mr. Murray's 

 generosity and farsightedness. Think 

 of the many liberal-minded and level- 

 headed business men whose names and 

 generous contributions appear in our 

 subscription list, which has been, and 

 will again in a few days be sent broad- 

 cast among the trade, and decide 

 whether you cannot follow their lead. 

 If you want to be stingy, let your 

 stinginess show in some other direc- 

 tion, don't refuse to put your mite into 

 the palm of the hand which is helping 

 your business so much — your business 

 just as much as that of anyone else.
