Make Home the Wonderland of Beauty 
TO THE PUBLIC: 
Beauty is instinctive to man. What joy of a Spring morning, to watch the rosy 
dawn spread along the horizon; while the birds in the trees and nearby woodlands 
burst forth into melody and song; thus ushering in the day' with a vast anthem of 
praise. The stars pale and fade from sight. The blue sky arches overhead, as the 
morning light paints the landscape in softened hues, and nowhere is the scene so 
beautiful as viewed from our own door. That is if we have made home the wonder¬ 
land of beauty that it should be. Each day brings an ever changing panoroma of 
delight. The bursting buds, the soft green and grays of the new foliage; later taking 
on the more somber tones of Summer, with opening flowers and new wonders un¬ 
folding from day to day; then later the ripe fruit, ready to the pickers hand, the gold 
and purple of the late flowers, the red and yellow leaves of Autumn and the hazy 
skies of Indian Summer. Then the early' dash of Winter that brings the Evergreens 
into full prominence. They smile at the swirling snow and cold and give a comfort¬ 
ing touch of color to the Winter landscape. 
Thanking our many friends and the public for their generous patronage in the 
past; and wishing all a happy and prosperous year we are, 
Yours very truly, KOETHE BROS.
