Taking The Weakness 

 Out Of The Week End 



Yesterday there came through the mail a charming circular from 

 Hitchings & Co., Greenhoufe Builders. 



Its title was: "A Walk That Leads To Perpetual Sunimerland." 

 That walk led you right into a greenhouse and promptly you were 

 surrounded with blooming flowers and ripening fruit. 



It sure did mate you want a greenhouse just for your own pleasurp. 

 regardless of how nrany square feet of regular growing houses you 

 may have. 



At the bottom were three sketches of which the above was one. Each 

 carried a welcome suggestion that made you feel that you simply 

 couldn't keep house without a greenhouse and the dowers it yielded. 



Under the cut shown above, which they courteously loaned us. was 

 this thought, "A friend of whom you are particularly fond comes to 

 spent a week end. 



Added to your sincere welcome downstairs, is that of her favorite 

 flower in her room upstairs, for you took genuine pleasure in recall- 

 ing it and picked for her the finest ones yourself." 



After reading which, says I to myself says I, George, you are a dub. 

 Why don't you make a special drive at week enders, a drive iit the 

 hostess and a drive at the guest? 



Every Saturday afternoon from now till November there will be 

 thousands of cars leaving the city for week end parties." 



.So I promptly laid my plans, which may or may not hold asuggestion 

 for you.
