FRESH FLOWERS AND BEST SERVIOB 



not only to build up the F. T. D. service, 

 but to make the service of your own 

 establishment better known among 

 prospective patrons. Wherever sharp 

 practices are used in filling telegraph 

 orders, if they come to your attention, 

 you owe it to your organization to in- 

 vestigate and report them. Then, if 

 this association is ever going to grow in 

 the confidence of the public, it is the 

 duty of the oflScers to go to the bottom 

 of the report, and, if it ia found correct, 

 the guilty party should be summarily 

 dealt with. 



To illustrate, I will cite an F. T. D. 

 transaction that actually happened. A 

 woman wont into the store of an eastern 

 florist (and he was not a small one by 

 any means) and ordered a spray for $10 

 to be delivered in a not-far-distant city 

 for the funeral of a relative. Now, it 

 happened that when this spray was de- 

 livered, the one who ordered it was there 

 to receive it. When she looked at it she 

 was indignant and got into a machine 

 and took it to the store of the florist 

 who had filled the order. A scene oc- 

 curred, the florist being just as indig- 

 nant as the customer, but among other 

 uncomplimentary things this woman sai<l 

 was: "The idea of charging $10 for such 

 a spray! Why, in our city I could get 

 one just as good for $5." This remark 

 threw a new light on the subject. The 

 telegram was produced; the lady was 

 .shown where her home-town florist had 

 ordered a $5 spray and was told she 

 would be obliged to take her grievance 

 up with him. 



A Case of Negligence. 



I asked the florist what he had done 

 about it. He replied, "Nothing." 

 Now, this is just the object of this ar- 

 ticle. Will that woman ever have con- 

 fidence in the association again! She 

 will never let an opportunity slip to 

 state her experience with an F. T. T). 

 order. And yet I claim that the florist
