NATIONAL PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN 



There has been a good demand for 

 the new Easter and Mother's day 

 newspaper electrotypes illustrated in 

 the January issue of the Journal of 

 the S. A. F. and O. H. and their use 

 will link up well with the advertise- 

 ments for these days appearing in the 

 magazines. The electros are so de- 

 signed that a business card or other 

 matter can be added to them by the 

 newspaper compositors without injur- 

 ing the general effect. Florists who 

 have not availed themselves of the 

 various electrotype offers of the Pro- 

 motion Bureau should send in their 

 orders to the secretary without delay. 

 as on April 1 electrotype founders all 

 over the country will adopt a new 

 scale of prices, due to the high rate of 

 wages they are now called upon to 

 pay. and these prices will be in the 

 neighborhood of one hundred per 

 cent advance on the prices we' are 

 now receiving, as we are running upon 

 a contract jilaced long ago, and which 

 has permitted of our prices remaining 

 unchanged despite the fact that the 

 foundry quotations have naturally ad- 

 vanced within the past year. 



Florists are also reminded that our 

 Series No. 2 lantern slides contains 

 one for Easter. All who use the mov- 

 ing picture houses for their local ad- 

 vertising should have this series. Se- 

 ries No. 1 contains a slide for Mother's 

 Day. All slides are in colors, and 

 there is room on each for a three line 

 impriiit. which we furnish. 



"With the winter practically over, 

 little difficulty is experienced now in 

 the installation of billboard signs. Or- 

 ders for several of these signs have 

 been received of late and shipments 

 are made from the factory as fast as 

 orders are received. Hundreds of 

 florists have locations upon their own 

 establishments which would suit a 

 billboard installation admirably, and 

 the cost of such a sign, $50, should not 

 stand in the way of an installation. 

 The slogan "Say it with Flowers" ex- 

 erts a tremendous power, and used in 

 this form is of great advantage to the 

 Publicity Campaign. 



We are still waiting to hear from 

 those florists who have not yet sub- 

 scribed to the Campaign Fund. Their 

 apathy is hard. to understand. Here 

 is a movement destined to put money 

 In their pockets— it is doing it al- 

 ready — yet they are not supporting it. 

 It is no lottery, it is an investment
