NATIONAL PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN. 

 There lias been a steady influx of 

 orders at the Secretary's office for 

 poster stamps and posters for St. Val- 

 entine's Day, which augurs well for 

 business on this day. As has been 

 previously pointed out, the cost of this 

 material is very small, and co-opera- 

 tion in a wide use of it must certainly 

 produce direct results. 



The February magazines selected 

 for the page advertisement in colors 

 featuring this day are already in cir- 

 culation, and should exert considerable 

 Influence in the direction of sales. In 

 addition to all this, our Promotion 

 Bureau has supplied enough electro- 

 types to florists in all parts of our 

 country to insure that our slogan in 

 connection with pictorial matter bear- 

 ing suitable reference to the festival 

 will have attention In over two mil- 

 lion homes- — which means engaging the 

 interest of five times that number of 

 people. To avoid disappointment, 

 florists should order at once. Orders 

 will be filled the same day they are 

 received at the point of distribution. 



The Campaign Gives Satisfaction 

 That the campaign, so far, has given 

 the best of satisfaction is evidenced in 

 the kind comments being received at 

 the Secretary's office from subscribers 

 in all sections. There is much enthu- 

 siasm shown in the conduct of the cam- 

 paign, and the opinion is freely ex- 

 pressed that we should push our work 

 even harder than before. As one sub- 

 scriber puts it, 'We have got the public 

 going, let us keep them continually in 

 mind of our products." The number 

 of people who miss an occasion for ex- 

 pressing a sentiment with flowers is 

 less than it used to be, because they 

 can hardly escape the necessary re- 

 minder, thanks to our publicity work. 

 It is up to us to see that the reminder 

 is perpetuated. 



But we cannot accomplish this with- 

 out support to our Fund. It does not 

 matter where you are situated, you re- 

 ceive benefit from our publicity work. 

 The idea of deliveries of flowers in 

 distant cities has been greatly encour- 

 aged by our magazine advertising. You 

 will have noticed that in all our maga- 

 zine advertising particular reference 

 has been made to the possibilities in 

 this direction, and business by tele- 

 graph is getting to be as common as it 

 was once rare. There is not a town
