to get away from what threatens to be 

 the monotony of making up one piece 

 after another of the same pattern and 

 composition. 



Too frequently one flower is used ex- 

 clusively, with the addition of greens, 

 in ;i piece, giving an effect too solid and 

 cramped to be artistic. A greater va- 

 riaticm can be used and is used by flo- 

 rists whose patrons' demands have com- 

 pellod them to think out new ways. 



An example is the spray shown in the 

 accomj.anying illustration. While the 

 calla lilies and cattleyas arc suflBciently 

 prominent to give a central note, serv- 

 ">« to unify the effect, other flowers are 

 ( mjiloyed so freely and in such variety 

 ^'I'lt a pleasing distinction is attained 

 "1 the result. Grace and freedom of 

 ^Ins sort is something that appeals to 

 ^vill-to-do patrons, whose artistic taste 

 1^ well developed, more than closely 

 l''Tkp,i pieces of expensive blooms.

 "1 the heart of the old, established fash-

 I'';' same mark of charm in variety that 

 Ill's specimen does.

John Powers is an Irishman. 



He owns a lumber box wagon and his horse Billy. 



Is married and has a daughter Annie. 



Every time he meets me, no matter if it's raining 



like blazes, he always says: "It's a foine day, 



indeed it is, it is." 



Last week, the day of that drizzly cold rain, met 



him and he got off that "foine day" stuff and, by 



heck, 1 called him for time. 



Told him it was darn nonsense. 



"Now I tell you, Mr. Stumpp, it do be loike this. 

 I've got me wife Mary, and me daughter Annie, 

 and me horse Billy, and me wagon, and me land, 

 and me crops. And when I don't have me crops, 

 or me tire comes off the old wagon, or it rains, or 

 it does whatever the devil it does -what do I 

 care? 



"Haven't I always me wife Mary, and me 

 daughter Annie,' and me horse Billy, and me 

 wagon, and me land? 



"And sure, Mr. Stumpp, every day do be a foine 

 day; indeed it is, sir; it is, it is." 



After which I went straight to the shop and gave 

 all the boys merry hale for kicking because the 

 rain might hurt our business for a day. 



But it didn't. By eleven, the sun was out and 

 most folks hopping mad because they had to lug 

 an umbrella. 



Some— quite some inj.fact-came in and left 

 theirs— and went away with flowers. 

 Drop around and I'll introduce you to my Irish 

 friend John.

western Arkansas. But music is often 

 helped by something else, often needs 

 it. Many a time music and flowers have 

 worked together. 



So, at the request of tlie committee on 

 arrangements, George Rye and his as- 

 sistant, Espy O'Neil, decorated a win- 

 dow in the store of a local music dealer, 

 featuring the "Say It with Flowers" 



song. And to prove that the words were 

 as good as the window, Mr. Rye sang 

 tlie song at the convention. 



The window display contained, in 

 well arranged grouping, a large basket 

 of peonies, a vase and a basket of carna- 

 tions, a tall wicker vase of snapdragons, 

 a potted hydrangea and palms, together 

 with a large Grafonola, two or three
