 Association is accumulating funds for a 

 strong spring campaign. 



Joseph Ziska Ijftis returned from a two 

 weeks' stay at the furniture show in 

 New York. So great was his success in 

 booking orders for the juvenile special- 

 ties featured by the Ziska factory that 

 he did not need to stay longer— the fac- 

 tory will be busy a long time on the or- 

 ders in hand. 



R. Scheffler is starting a new range, 

 his third, at Wheaton. The posts are 

 set and the material for a house 36x190 

 has been shipped by the A. Dietsch Co. 

 Mr. Schefller has twelve houses in his 

 two completed ranges, soon coming into 

 heavy crop with sweet peas. 



Those former florists, Lubliner _ & 

 Trinz, opened their seventeenth moving

August Jurgens began his annual 

 shipments of outdoor jonquils from 

 Bidgeland, Miss., before St. Valentine's

 a suddenness that was a surprise as well

 our expectations, though we had made 

 unusual effort for it. It promises well 

 for Easter." The Randall store has 

 been rearranged to give increased space 

 for cut flowers and to afford new display 

 for florists' supplies. 



Many cars slowed down in Michigan 

 avenue' as their drivers came in sight 

 of the Samuelson St. Valentine window. 

 It was in blue and gold and red, the 

 handiwork of Edward Enders, whose 

 eye for color has few equals. 



"^ George Stollery made his debut last 

 week as editor of the garden depart-

 neighborhood newspaper that circulates 

 in the district where most of the patrons 

 of the store of Stollery Bros, reside.

 TALK ABOUT SERVICE 



Many advertisements are repeatedly written 

 about service but not always executed with 

 the success they claim to ol?er. 



Some good service can be given without pay 

 but more service can be given with pay. 



Service is all right when nothing goes wrong, 

 but give us the customer willing to pay for 

 service as well as for the stock that is bought. 



Wholesale Cut Flower Service costs money 

 and somebody pays for it.
