BOB CRAIGIE “The manufacturers of the pots were contacted,” Mrs. Smith said and invited us to come to an ex- hibit at one of 0510’s largest ho- tels. I have never seen a more beautiful display of flowers and plants, and in such attractive set- tings. Right then, I decided that this was what Canadians had been looking for to hold their flowers and decorate their homes. So grew a business here in Thornhill, for I brought some samples witn me on my return to Canada and since then the importing of Coral Urns has taken up a great deal of my time in order to supply the grow- ing demand. On a trip to 'her native land, Mrs. Smith was greatly impressed in the home of relatives and friends by the profusion of porous flower pots she' found on every hand. most of them containing dec- orative foliage plants, all unusual- 13; healthy in appearance. With these flower pots, there is no messy old style container with the inevitable saucer underneath. Water soaks right into the mat- erial of which the pots are made and gradually evaporates usually taking 24 hours or more and glv- ing consistent nourishment to the plants themselves. Brought Some Home Checking into it, Mrs. Smith learned that the exceptionally healthy plants were placed in cor- al flower pots made of a porous material that would absorb water and hold it for an indefinite per- 10d. A trip to Norway a year ago provided the inspiration that launched Mrs. Karin Campbell Smith of ’I'hornhill in a uvsiness that has been steadily growing since its inception and bids fair to become even bigger in the future. From Norway To Thornhill Come Products To Form Basis Of Unusual Business with the New ONE OF THE ATTRACTIVE CORAL URNS TD8-51 Business In both articles has developed rapidly and they are being placed on sale in one of Toronto’s leading department stores. A display of Coral Proâ€" ducts is featured in the window of the Richmond Hill Liberal this“ week. The Coral Milk Cooler holds a quart bottle of milk or other li- quid, and will keep the content: cool as long as the cooler is kept wet. They can also be used to crisp vegetables such as celery and lettuce. " The Coral Butter Cooler when kept damp will keep butter cool, sweet and moist indefinitely. They make an attractive appearance on the table. Also Cools Milk As the flower pot business grew another good thing was imported from Norway; now even if you do not have the latest in refrigerat- ors, you can have cooled butter just right for spreading; and milk sweet and cold in your home, cot- tage or car. Coral Coolers which refrigerate by evaporation are handled locally by Ralph’s Hard- ware, Richmond Hill and the Vill- age Hardware, Thornhill. “Richmond Hill caught on right away and last year Rice’s FluWel‘ Centre had a beautiful display of Coral Urns in their booth at the local Trade Fair and will have them again this year. “Since then many peope have tried them and have found them the very thing they have wanted for their favorite flowers. Because Coral Urns give them the beauty treatment the plants need and are scientifically designed to help feed the plant, through the absorbent action of the'pots which stoi.l the water and give it to the plant as needed, accompanied by air which keeps the earth sweet, they are well called ‘the Flower Pots that breathe.’ " addressed to the undersigned and plainly marked “‘Tender for Jefljerson Public School” will be received until 12 0’- clock noon The program marked the intro- duction of new International Har- vester refrigerators and home freezers and some 300 residents of Richmond Hill and surrounding territory turned out to enjoy the show.
