St. CatliJiriiifS, Onlarid, is his localion. (Jrowcr and tlnrist, his vocation. .lokiiiK- liis friends and ^''ttiii^r liinistir ufiu'ially liked is his jtastime. lie is one of those fortunate chaps whose Inisiness and his iiome are liKlil in tlie one sjiot. At the back are the two idpe frame houses and con- necting lean-to we lirst hiiilt for- him. and then comes a wide irrm franier. This sliow housi' is more like a liiK shciw window. Itut no matter what il is liki-. it sells llowers. Mr. Iiunn liKUred out that a sliow house looking sliow window. Would attract a lot more interest than a siiow window ttiat was just a show window. llis hank account shows that it shows up as he liKureil il would. The idea is as new as il is rio\el. Just to prove to you that he didn't make the mistake of having- all the show on the front, we took a photo of this attractive little casement window, whicli catches your eye the minute you open the door. Besides bein« attractive, however, it sells not only tlowers, but baskets and vases. Sells them, because it looks so homey like, that the women folks just can't help wantihf^ something id the same look in their home. Sometimes wonder, if florists don't doll their shojis HI) so much that the real purpose of their shops is not somewhat lost. After all, simplicity—^the right kind of simiilicity— is always effeitive. Always satisfying. Just naturally we would like to build for you either a sliow-hoiise-show-window, or a show house. Which shall it lie'.'
