The Fbrists' Review 



25 



To (hir Friends and Patrons: Greeting! 



TANDINQ at the opening of a New Year, it seems appro- 

 priate to devote this advertisement to an expression of 

 appreciation of the patronage given us by the buyers of 

 Cut Flowers during 1912, and of the friendly words and 



acts of encouragement of those not buyers. It 

 has been our good fortune to do, in 1912, much 

 the largest business in our history— and it has 

 been our pleasure to have gained many good 

 friends; indeed, we have come to know what it 

 means to be "advertised by our friends." 



It has been our aim to develop here the 

 most dependable source of Cut Flower supply 

 in the United States. We have sought quality 

 first, knowing that quantity would promptly 

 follow. We have aimed to handle every flower 

 so carefully that it would go out in even better 

 condition than it came in, and we have steadily 

 maintained our facilities a step in advance of 

 the needs of the business. 



This policy, coupled with an unfaltering: determination 

 to give everyone absolutely honorable treatment, has 

 brougrht an increase in business far s:reater than we antici- 

 pated at the time we laid down the rules on which this 

 house has been conducted — and we are truly grateful. 



We pledge ourselves now to spare no effort to main- 

 tain the reputation we have gained — for good stock, mod- 

 ern methods and fair dealing. We shall not sell off our 

 good nanle. We mean to keep the place we have gained — 

 to push forward along the same lines as in the past.
