NATIONAL PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN. 

 Our Promotion Bureau is advised by 

 the manufacturers of the slogan bill- 

 board signs that immediate shipment 

 can be made of billboards over any 

 route not affected by the treigbt em- 

 bargo, which is still holding up ship- 

 ments to some points. Florists, whose 

 establishments present opportunities 

 for the display of one of these signs 

 are reminded that not only do they 

 help the campaign, but give splendid 

 publicity to the establishment on 

 which they are displayed. A supple- 

 mentary sign showing a florist's con- 

 nection may be affixed underneath or 

 above the big sign, carrying any an- 

 nouncement desired. Every florist 

 should have a sign on his plant; the 

 public are interested, always, to know 

 whose place of business they are view- 

 ing, and a billboard will not only fill 

 this requirement, but spread the 

 gospel of "Say it with Flowers." The 

 cost of a board, $50, is not any more 

 than one would expect to pay for a 

 decent sign, and a similar sign, out- 

 side of the arrangement made by our 

 committee would cost to day $100. 

 Iron, paint and labor are expensive 

 items today, as all of us linow, and 

 these signs at $.50 each are bargains 

 really and truly. Another thing, they 

 ornament a place. A sign nicely 

 located gives a touch of color too. 

 sometimes, a rather dreary expanse of 

 glass. It conveys the idea that flow- 

 ers, not vegetables, are grown under 

 that glass: and that thus grown, they 

 cost money. We have never been able 

 to impress upon the public the fact 

 that production of flowers under glass 

 is costly, and there is nothing in the 

 big stretches of glass houses seen 

 along the highways in all parts of the 

 country to link them with the flowers 

 of the florist. These signs will do just 

 that, and every florist who has a place 

 for one should invest $.50, and see that 

 a sign ornaments his establishment. 



We are pleased to note a little re- 

 sponse now to our appeals for sub- 

 scriptions which the publishers of the 

 trade papers courteously allow us to 

 place in their columns every week. 

 True, the subscriptions are small, but 

 we welcome them equally with the 

 large. A florist who sends in $5 with 

 his best wishes for the campaign is a 

 good fellow— he has his profession at 

 heart, and sends what he feels he can 

 afford to send. It was never intended 

 that a contribution should be a tax.
