Mother's Day. 



Any florist who has not received a 

 broadside descriptive of the publicity 

 helps for Mother's Day business 

 should write for one to the florists' 

 Publicity Service Bureau of the S. A. 

 F. and O. H.. 4.31 South nparhnni 

 Street. Chicago. 



The Campaign Fund. 



.■\s far as can be learned, the florists 

 throughout the country did an un- 

 usually large Easter business, result- 

 ing in greater profits to the trade. It 

 might be exi>ected that many of those 

 who have not yet contributed to the 

 Campaign Fund would now come 

 across with the subscription so long 

 anticipated from them. But it looks 

 as though we may go on expecting. 

 Expectancy is a bad habit. For years 

 and years the florists have made ex- 

 pectancy the basis of operations. Now 

 when we have an active movement to 

 turn expectancy into actuality, most 

 of those who are to benefit seem un- 

 willing to support the fund that is 

 making the change. They are not 

 helping to help themselves. Our com- 

 mittee cannot pay our publicity bills 

 with expectations. Why not help them 

 toward materialization — send a cheque 

 right away for any amount circum- 

 stances will permit, and it will be 

 found to be a mighty good investment.
