June 22. 1922 



« 



PROVIDENCE, R. I. 



Weddings, teas, graduations and din- 

 ners left their imprint on the business 

 of the local florists last week, and 

 the next ten days will be equally sus- 

 ceptible. They have combined to keep 

 things active notwithstanding the great 

 supply of outdoor blooms. Although 

 there liave been no large social func- 

 tions, yet the number of smaller affairs 

 lias been so large that their influence 

 was materially felt. Funeral work has 

 also been quite active. 



Timothy L. O'Connor has been drawn 

 for duty as a grand juror in the Su- 

 perior court.

 ington street.

Look Back to See Ahead 



Looking back is often the best way to see ahead. 



Most of us find upon looking back that our biggest 

 mistakes have been made through lack of faith in the 

 future. 



We all have been inclined to feel at times that the 

 ultimate had been reached — that it was impossible for 



more flowers to be sold or for more greenhouses to 



pay- 

 But looking back we see that regardless of what we 

 thought or felt, this great country has gone right on 

 forward, more and more flowers have been sold every 

 year, and big, new greenhouses have paid and paid 

 well. 



Right now we urge every florist to have faith in his 

 business and give heed to the advantage of building 

 for the future while building prices are lower than 

 thfiy are apt to be again. 



Let US advise with you on your greenhouse 

 problems. We have everything Jor the 

 greenhouse complete.
