FLORIST REFRIGERATORS 



Qlt's really a pleasure to do business as we're trying to do it — to serve our 

 customers well in the important matter of good refrigerators ; to feel that 

 when you buy a refrigerator here we're giving you value and insuring your 

 whole satisfaction, and it's the satisfaction that lasts — a quality that shows 

 itself always in a Buchbinder Refrigerator. Whatever your business is, 

 you may depend on one thing — the satisfaction you get out of it depends on 

 the satisfaction you give — we know it. A refrigerator is an important thing in 

 your store, and there's a pleasure in having such refrigerators as we have here.

 ries are in demand stronger than ever,

.Tohn Kruchten says the last year has 



added considerably to the glass repre- 

 sented by his growers, many of whom

 Mr. Kruchten estimates that his sup- 

 ply of roses will be twenty-five per 

 cent larger than last Christmas. 



C. L. Washburn, of Bassett & Wash- 

 burn, acted as host to E. G. Hill, of
