heavy with a number of the retail 

 stores, as the recently elected city offi- 

 cials took office that day and this event 

 is always big in floral orders. 



Launch Local Campaign. 



A meeting of retail and wholesale 

 florists and growers of the two Kansas 

 Cities was held April 23 in Henry 

 Kusik's office, in the interest of the as- 

 sociated advertising plan which was 

 started two weeks ago. About thirty- 

 five were present. Miss Haydon, of 

 Samuel Murray's, who originated the 

 idea here and worked up the meeting, 

 explained the plan and it was heartily 



indorsed by everyone present. Between 

 $800 and $1,000 was subscribed to be 

 spent in advertising for Mothers' day 

 in the local newspapers. The adver- 

 tising will begin a week before the day 

 and the slogan, "Say It with Flowers," 

 will be featured. A committee com- 

 posed of Miss Hayden, M. E. Carter and 

 W. J. Barnes was named to have full 

 I'harge of the campaign and the expendi- 

 ture of the fund. 



Besides the good that will be accom-

 is highly probable that the meeting of 

 the florists on this matter will result 

 in the formation of a local club or asso- 



ciation, something that is stran>!;ely 

 lacking in a city of this size, with the 

 flower business on the high plane that 

 it is here. The lack of cooperation has 

 long been felt and has often been de- 

 plored by individuals and the time 

 seems opportune for the starting of an 

 organization that cannot fail to result 

 in much good to everyone concerned. 



Various Notes. 



T. J. Noll is of the opinion that 

 Mothers' day will exceed any Christmas 

 business that florists have ever had. 

 "The sentiment of the day is what 

 makes it strong," said Mr. Noll. "It
