Scotland's Only Mem ber F. T. D. 



A complete list of membership is a 

 raluable asset to our business, especial- 

 ly when we can depend upon it every 

 month when the News arrives. This 

 alone is worth more than the cost of 

 membership. 



Teach Each Other. 



It is impossible to cover all the de- 

 tails that can be derived from this 

 publication. I can only touch the high 

 spots. However, our aim is to make 

 better business men, because it means 

 better business. Merchants are made 

 by helping each other — the strong must 

 help the weak — today as yesterday. I 

 know we are all ambitious to become 

 perfect, and as our faults are exposed 

 to our consciousness, we shall ourselves 

 naturally become anxious to improve our 

 condition. 



There will be no complaint regarding 

 members sending an order for less than 

 contracted for by the customer. There 

 will be no excessive rates for express 

 charges, etc., nothing beyond the actual 

 cost. The spotlight will be turned on in 

 justice to all members, which will cause 

 embarrassment to the offender. Let us 

 work together and employ the Golden 

 Eule and we shall all be happy. 



I am glad to remark that the F. T. D. 

 News as a publication financially is a 

 success. I have accepted a wager from 

 the boys, in the shape of a suit of 

 elothea, if the net proceeds for the year 

 reaehee $5,000. The way the applica- 



Lincoln's reply to the inquiry concerning how long 

 a man's legs ought to be, is only equaled by the 

 one about a man's height. 



The question was asked him by one who sometimes 

 drank a_bit too much, and was attempting to ridi- 

 cule Lincoln for his ungainly height. 



"How tall should a man be?" replied Lincoln, "how 



tall?" 



"Well, if he were about tall enough so when he 



fell down he would be half way home, it would be 



about right for his sober friends who were trying 



to get him home." 



The other day, heard that story told to a florist 

 who was pooh-poohing the F, T. D. It was told in 

 an attempt to make him see, that the minute he 

 became a member, orders were half way on their 

 way to him. 



If not a member, just think over that thought. |

tions for space are pouring in, I am safe 

 in placing my order for the suit. 



I hope to contribute because it means 

 a greater contribution to national pub- 

 licity, where all surplus should right- 

 fully go. 



Membership Dues. 



The question of membership dues is 

 one that should be considered at this 

 time. Commensurate with the service, 

 is a maxim worth while. Cost of serv-
