Many Motives for Giving

Lining Miami’s Flagler Street are beautiful royal palm trees. One night, vandals cut down six of the magnificent trees, and the city did not have the money to replace them. Then, at last, a donor came forward and offered to replace the lost trees. But while the former trees had been 15 feet tall and formed a perfect foreground for a big Delta Air Lines billboard, the new trees were 35 feet tall and completely hit the billboard. The donor? Eastern Airlines.
