Be a MUGWUMP. In 

 other words, be independent. 

 "Mugwump" is from the 

 Indian "Mugquomp" and 

 means "leader." In 1884 

 the New York Sun gave the 

 word political meaning, indi- 

 cating an independent voter; 

 one who was considered a 

 backslider or a person who 

 considered himself of superior 

 intelligence— capable of vot- 

 ing as he pleased. Some 

 florists today buy from firms 

 because they feel that they 

 are obliged to — perhaps such 

 a firm may buy from them. 

 Consider this— does the firm 

 buy from you, Mr. Florist, 

 because of your personality, 

 or do they buy from you be- 

 cause they are glad to get the 

 goods, at their own price, or 

 at a price which will net 

 them the most profit? Would 

 they not buy from your next 

 neighbor if they could buy 

 better or cheaper? Do you 

 think they buy from you for 

 love? If they do, it is not 

 good business. Do they buy 

 from you just because you 

 buy from them? If they do, 

 it is again not good business. 

 Do you think we would buy 

 bulbs from a bulb exporter 

 abroad just because he might 

 buy from us? Not much — we 

 would not buy from him un- 

 less we were sure he had the 

 goods. We are Mugwump 

 Buyers. The Mugwump, or 

 independent buyer, is the 

 successful man today. Be a 

 Mugwump.
