The more artistic and natural,
loose, graceful arrangement of flowers
and plants is now used, and bare
stretches of wall are bridged over

be neutral In color, and in shape fol-
low the main lines of the flower.
The keynote of an artistic floral dec-
nation is Irregularity. There must be
no geometric arrangement to tire the
aye; no repeats to pall the senses. In
stead, each portion of the decorative
scheme must have a distinctive charm
of Its own.
Surface space must be *ell bal-

The most artistic effect Is produced
by employing flowers of one color,

An Appreciation
Lest some of our regular patrons should think that we are over-
looking them in our effort to secure new business, we write this little
word of appreciation. The people who have stood by us we consider
the salt of the earth. Nothing is too good for them. We are. of course,
anxious to secure new business, but. never at the expense of our
regular patrons, for they are the people who have made this bank pos-
sible. We know it, appreciate it, and are free to acknowledge it. By
treating all our old patrons fairly and extending the same courtesies
to new customer we hope to grow stronger year by year.
