The Weekly Florists^ Review*

Success Depends on the Man. 



All these and a hundred other things 

 may be enumerated as contributing to 

 the mental equipment of a modern first- ' 

 rate gardwier. It is a pretty formid- 

 able curriculum, especially to the mab 

 whose lines of perspective have not car- 

 ried him much beyond the potting bench, 

 whose chief ambition is to drop into an 

 easy job where the boss is away most 

 of the time, and where no embarrassing 

 questions are asked. Let it not be sup- 

 posed for a moment, however, that the 

 mere acquisition of all this knowledge in 

 itself constitutes an ideal man. These 

 things are simply tools to be used as 

 means to an end, which is wisdom, and 

 this finds its highest expression in the 

 ability and desire to serve. If in the 

 course of all these years of study and 

 application he has not discovered that 

 his own measure of happiness is com- 

 mensurate with the service which he ren- 

 ders others, then his time and labor 

 have been largely wasted. Unselfish 

 service is the philosopher's stone. He 

 who possesses it scatters happiness 

 wherever he goes — to his employer, his 

 fellow laborers, in fact to all with whom 

 he comes in contact. He possesses a 

 pleasing personality, is interesting in 

 conversation and tactful in manner. Of 

 him his employer makes a friend and 

 companion. He is not only an ideal 

 gardener but an ideal man.
