OF course you can order other things,
too, if you haven't the Dutchy tend

there is a good variety, are buttered.
Iced cantaloupe, watermelon, desserts

and if they don't she tries to make
herself think she really didn't expect
them, anyway.
Altho flowers when they are more
or less expected can't do any harm,
the flowers that really work best in
the interest of the sender are those
that are absolutely a surprise. The
girl knows that she has inspired the

Listen, boys, some girls like books,
some like music. others crave the out

but take it from me they all like
flowers.
Flowers carry a meaning that moth
ing else can express. A man may be
full of sentiment but would feel his
ears growing long and furry if he tried
to put his thoughts in words. An
easy way to get your idea across to the
girl you admire is to send her Hayes
corsage. She'll understand.
The Hayes Flower Shop can make
the loveliest affairs of flowers, maiden
hair ferns, bits of feathers and pretty
ribbons. The flowers are strictly
fresh too, right from the Hayes green
houses, which is a, feature not to be
overlooked.
