retary. our Committee would not now 

 have to make an appeal, for funds 

 would be ample. But thousands of 

 otherwise astute florists are hanging 

 back, content to let other of their 

 brethren shoulder the expense uf this, 

 the greatest and most beneficial move- 

 ment ever promulgated in the trade, 

 or In few other trades. Unlike other 

 trade slogans, "Say It With Flowers" 

 conveys a message so widely appre- 

 ciated, that perhaps only one class of 

 people is unaffected by it, and that 

 class has our sympathy and gratuitous 

 service when in need of flowers — the 

 poor and destitute. 



Arouse yourself, then, Mr. Non-Sub- 

 scriber. Help us to help you to still 

 further increase your business by in- 

 creasing the demand for your products. 

 You should believe in this campaign as 

 vou do in your religion, and support it. 

 You share in the benefit resulting, so 

 why not in the expense of conducting 

 it. If you think the matter over at 

 all seriously, you will, afterward, send 

 a cheque to the Secretary for an 

 amount which your conscience dictates 

 you should send.

HOW MUCH DO YOU POSSESS? 



Character Is like stock In trade; the 

 more of it a man possesses the greater 

 his facilities for making additions to 

 It. Character is power, Is Influence; 

 it makes friends; creates funds; 

 draws patronage and support : and 

 opens a sure and easy way to wealth, 

 honor and happiness. Thus said 

 Hawes. 



Can you picture our publicity cam- 

 paign with its high Ideals based on 

 character of this nature as Just read 

 and doesn't it embody all that Is men- 

 tioned. Nothing could better express 

 the purpose of our campaign than the 

 words of Hawes and yet we find many 

 who have as yet not seen the way to 

 further the results so well established 

 in so short a period by helping materi- 

 ally, so that the character as well as 

 the business Itself will continue to 

 grow and establish further patronage 

 and support. 



The S. A. F. has every reason to be 

 proud of Its achievement In so short 

 a time and all the contributors will be 

 amply repaid by the Increased volume 

 It will eventually cause. It simply 

 means that when we all get behind the 

 movement its benefits will be multi- 

 plied more and more.
