. Florists' review [microform]. Floriculture. OCTOBEB 2, 1919. The Florists^ Review 15 ; Yet it serves the same purpose, as the reader will agree. The coal shed is on Maple street, in Clyde, O. Maple street is a main coun- ty road and at present, while McPher- son highway is being paved, it is a de- tour route for Cleveland-Toledo travel. Automobilists pass in great numbers. So the admonition, "Say It with Flow- ers," has possibilities of wide effects in such a location, as E. E. Hall, of Hall's Greenhouse, realized. The sign is 6%x 20, painted on the shed 12x30, or twelve times the size of the original window sign. E. E. Hall has some good advice on this sco/e. He says: "We owe thanks to Mr. Asmus for introducing his bill- board at the S. A. F. convention, and I hope that every florist who" hasn't a building or fence of proper dimensions in a prominent place for a sign will see his way clear to procure one or more billboards. "Florists in small towns will say, 'Yes, I would like a sign put here or there, but whom shall I get to do it? There is no sign painter in town, or his charges are so high I can't afford it,' etc. My advice to them is to look the family over. Perhap's there is a mem- ber who can do it. Or see the superin- tendent of public schools. Ask him if he hasn't a student who can draw. The ?chances are he can recommend several to you. Let them draw the window sign freehand, if they can do it. They sure- ly can paint. In our case we were for- tunate in having one in the family, F. E. Hall, my brother, who did the work. This was his first attempt at sign paint- ing, though drawing has always been his pastime and at present he is at- tending an art school in Cincinnati. "I hope everyo»ne will see that it costs little for a sign on his buildiflfg. Since it must be painted, why not make use of the outside as well as the inside of the building. Just see to it that the painter spreads the paint so that people will stop,
