16. |AY ll‘ WITH snowma- By Benry Penn

noun street urchin to owner , of one of the most successful floral ggtabliahmenta in the eountry-- matxs the story of Henry Penn. The "mail! slogan "Say ll. Wlﬁh {IOW- "3" eyes the direct outgrowth of .n idea cone ived by Mr. Penn. who I, me put dent of the society ,1 American Florists and current

esident of the Beacon Street

ample in Boston, Massachusetts.

when 1 was ten years old I workcd after school hours in Bos- ;on as a newsboy. One evening a mu. pushed a hand cart up to the curb. It was loaded with white pond lilies. I had never seen any- thing so beautifull —

The man than naked us to sell the lilies on the street at five cents I bunch. We were to collect a cent and a. hall for each bunch we sold. lust holding them in my hands nude me tingle all we“. The only iiowers I had ever seen before were in public gardens behind "Don't Touch" signs. «\

at that moment I decided I wanted to be a florist. Two years later I had a cart. and the news- boys were working for me, selling lowers I bought from florists at

e end of the day.

As I worked hard to develop my own business, I also began to ac- quire a better understanfing of people. Pbr through flowers one can learn many thirgs about hu- man beings.

Flowers have been the lanzuage of faith, hope. syrnuathy and hap- piness since the beginning of time. People in their highest spiritual moments have turned to flowers to express their deepest emotions.

Three children

one incident I'll rever io-ge‘. happened many years ago. I have told this story many times; but it is just as poignant: today as when it happered back in the depression eriod.

one afternoon three children en- terod my shop. two boys and a girl. They were about ten years oi‘. raggediy dressed. but at this nio- merit well scrubbed. one of the boys look oii his mp. gazed about the store somewhat doubtfvlly. then came up to me.

"sir. we'd l‘lre something in yellow ﬂowers."

something in the-r tense, ner- vous manner made me think that this was a very special occasion. I showed them some inexpensive yellow spring ﬂowers

"Yes. sir." he rain. “You see, Mis- ter. Mickey would like 'em better 1! ‘-110! were yellow He had a yel- low sweater. I guess he liked yellow batters my other color."

“An they toe an funeral‘! I asked quietly. The boy nodded. suddenly chok- Gd up. The little girl was des,er- girl}; struulinz to keep back the

"A sweu ma»

“Bh0‘a his sister." the boy said “He was a swell little kid. A truck hit him yesterday while he was pinyin’ in the stree ." Hie lips were now treinbling.

The other boy now entered the conversation. “Us kids in his block took up is collection We got eigh- mn cents." he added lJ'l‘01|:.ly. "Would roses cost an awful lot. sir --yellow roses. 1 mean?"

I smiled suddenly "It Just hap- pens that I have some nice yellow roses here that I'm offering special today for e hteen cents s donen.” I pointed in the flower case.

"Gee, those would be swell!"

“Yes, Mickey! sure like thou.” The spirits of the committee and- denly roso as they gazed at tho statcb, golden roses in the case.

I'll make up a. nice spray‘ with iérns Ind ribbons. Where do you want me to send them?" I asked.

"Would it be all right. Mister. if we took ‘em with us?" one of the boys asked “We'd kinda like to- you-lknow-give ‘em to Mickey our- aelven. He'd like it better that

way." God’: Presence

. I

I fixed up the spray. accepted the eighteen cents gravely. and watched the y gsters trudge out of the store. My spirits were uplift- ed for da.ys afterwards. I reali?ed then, as I have often sensed it. the warm exultavion oi God's presence.

Several years ago 1 received regular orders from a prison con- vict in Jackson Michigan. on each occasion he had us send a box of ﬂowers to his mother in Boston. Somehow I knew that such a man was a po tiaiiy good citizen. sure «nous when he had served his time. he returned to his home and has been a useful citizen ever since.

Flowers breed love and good yvill. They are never -A850ClIl¢d with hate and evil spirits. I would vote for flowers to melt down the heart of the most hardened in- divlduals.

For example, take the buds of two simple flowers. The florist ex- poses both buds to an equal amount of sunlight, water and attention. Then for some mysterious, reason one of the buds will gradually open its petals and burst into beauti ul bloom. giving forth fragrant odors. while the other bud remains tizht and hard. exposing no beauty and giving off no fragrance.

Like llunin Beings

The opportunity to compare this strange fact of nature to human beings occurred one night during a banquet given to raise a large sum of money for a worthy cause. I was the chairman of this drive.

Near me I noticed a man iam- ous for his tightness with the purse strings. He knew he would be ask- ed to give and was stiffening his I istance. Then with startling clarity I saw a chs.-ilte to use the illustration of the two buds.

There on the tﬂllie! was a. bowl of ﬂowers. including beautiful roses in bloom and one or two buds which were closed tight. I took out one of each and stood up before the and- ience to give my speech. Then I told the story of the two buds and made the analogy to certain people who missed so much out of iiie because they refused to "open us."

As I developed my theme, I saw a slow smile spread over the face of the close-listed rich man. Be- fore the evening was over he had {ledges far more than I am sure

e had intended to.

Yes. I will never understand why everybody in the world doesn't be- come a florist. There is no finer way to see beauty in ﬂowers, in people, in God.

Czech Woman Wins World Skaiing Crown

By Michael 0'Mara

LONDON. March 8-(OP) - Bril-liant Ala Vrzanova of Czecho- slovakia tonight won the women's crown in the world figure-skating chaanpionshipa, pulling away from Britain's Jeanette Aitwegg with a superb performance.

Yvonne Shercnan of New York finished third and Susanne Mor- row of Toronto fourth in the wind- up event. of the title meet before a capacity crowd of 9.000 at Womb- iey Rink.

Miss Vitanova, a tall, black- haired beauty, led Miss Aultwegg by less than a point sitter the corn- pulsory figures Tuesday. But her graceful display of free skating to- night gave her a 14-point margin over the British star from Liver- pool in the final tabulation.

Canada's other entry. Marlene Smith of Niagara Falls. Oni:.. placed ninth in the 14-woman field.

As proof. George (lildmonixm Journal) Mackintosh incorporates in his column some enpts from 3 letter he got from Senator James A. Maoxinnon. Said the senator:

“The concensus of the Swiss press is thaat this is without doubt the best Oanadlam team which has played on the European continent. without. extending themselves, the ‘ erc1.iry‘s have had no difficulty in beating their opponents.

Jab We!) Done

"One fact in particular is woriihy of mention. Lm year a Canadian team (Sudbury Wolves) was booed. in marry matches because at their roughness and the press comments were very unfavorable. The U. 5. team also earned a bad reputation for using the same heavy body- cheoking tactids. The result was that both Canada and the U. 8. did heion to the game and gave their countries a name.
