i We are always being surprised by you. It's pleasant, 
but puzzling sometimes. For instance, this year we did not 
make up a special page of Novelties and felt that, more or 
less buried through the book, sales would not be heavy—- 
but they were! So you'll know what is still available we have 
made a report on sales on the first inside page of this letter. 
Then, a surprise the other way!A few very special 
bargains we thought would be gone in a week or two--sales 
were fairly heavy, but there are some left. Still a chance 
to get more than your dollar's worth. We're reporting on 
these on the second page inside. 
One thing was no surprise--small evergreens are scarce 
and getting scarcer. If you want any, better order soon. You'll 
find some on the back page of this letter. 
sincerely yours

P38; About the Short Guide this year—-we want to thank hund- 
reds of you (351 to be precise) who took the time to 
write us last April when we asked for suggestions. We 
used many of the ideas presented in this year's (1941) 
Short Guide. We hope to still further improve it next 
year. Any suggestions?
