SHOP NOTES
FREE
TAKE ONE

Such was the sign that was placed
in front of the Augusta Flower Shop
lato Monday afternoon. 1t referred to
over a dozen baskets of pansies on the
sidewalk
They were perfectly good pansies
except that the blossoms We're gone.
The plants were just as good as they
ever were and would have made an
attractive border for any flower bed.
1--WE put those out there at o'clock
Monday afternoon" said George Mer-
rill to the journal. Tuesday They
stayed there during the evening, right
through the rush of people going
home to supper and this morning
there was one box left which we had
to throw away. Guess the people
must have been suspicious"
In these days when so many are try
! ing to get something for nothing, it
did seem rather strange that these
panSies should not be carried off
! sooner. AS Mr.. Merrill said they did
not look any too well and perhaps hus-
| bands hesitated to take them for fear
. they would he accused of buying
something that didn't look good Ex-
plantations that pansies were being
given away by the basket might seem
n hit far-fetched in some homes.
PanSieS, by the way have been un-
usually numerous the whole season.
Practically every grocery store and
! lots of other places that were not gro
Gerry stores carried them. There were
days when Water street seemed to be
fairly a-bloom with panses The
| family that didn't have at least one
basket was the exception rather than
the rule.

both boys and girls are close con-
