It got to be a regular occurrence with us. Bell Floral Co. PHILADELPHIA CLUB MEETING. At the dinner of the Philadelphia Florists' Club at the Adelphia Hotel Tuesday evening, December 2, there were about fifty persons present. It was fol- « lowed by a fair-sized meeting. Charles H. Grakelow opened the evening by urging the loyal support of everyone for the publicity campaign here. A. L. Miller, of New York, president-elect of the S. A. F., spoke on the results to be accomplished by getting together. Frank H. Traendly and Eugene Daille- douze, of New York, also spoke. The meeting clesed with a discussion of the use of oil for fuel. From Buffalo the W. F. Kasting Co. sent an exhibit of Hamburg Late Pink chrysanthemums. Henry I. Faust, of Morion, Pa., exhibited cyclamens, })oinsettias and ferns. William K. Harris had a display of foliage plants and Edward Towill showed a seedling rose. ADVERTISING AT LOW COST. In the celebration of "Say It with Flewers" week in Washington, D. C, the father of this movement, Z. D. Blackistone, gave further proof of the fertility of his brain by his methods of securing advertising in behalf of the florists' week at cost so out of propor- tion to the gain that it was insignificant. The two illustrations on this page show two ideas of Mr. Blackistone. One is the basket of chrysanthemums which Mr. Blalkistone describes as the "first big gun of 'Say It with Flowers' ; It was presented at a mass meeting of 10,000 Red Cross workers at Z. D. Blackistone and Basket Presented to Red Cross Workers
