great deal of the spectacular and has
done an immense amount of good, con-
sentative advertising"
Secretary Robertson, who has ha6
charge of the raisin campaign work
today gave brief resume of the worl
accomplished. He said:
Last year we sent raisins to the
president, to cabinet members, to the
ships of the navy and to the army.
This year the committee has di-
rected it's attention to those who
sell .raisins. There is no doubt
but that our move last year re-
suited in good, for it made raisinS
regular ration in the army.
The committee first enlisted the
interest of the bakers. newspapers
and grocery publications Then the
members of the committee went
after the wholesale bakers, meeting
with great success. Finally they
directed their work to the whole
sale grocers and the retail grocers-
One thing we have noticed is the
need of education among those peo-.
pie whose business 1t is to make
bread leading Tennessee baker,
I'm writing to us, congratulated us
on our work, but wished to know
what raisin bread is.
One. and l might say almost the
leading factory in aiding the work
this year, has been the railroads
Without them we could not have
advertising we have accomplished
Another important factor which
has brought close to the homes of
the county the doctrine of the raiSin
as an article of diet, has been the
work of the school Childen. 1t is
estimated that more than 5000 let
ters were sent out from the schools
of this county. Added to that the
fraternal orders have helped out
largely and the labor unions this
year have entered heartily into the
work. We have sent out more than
1000 letters to as many labor or
CARNATIONS throughout the Coun-
try The churches have also as
sisted materially.
One of the leading factors, how
ever has been the efforts of the 10
cal merchants. who wrote thousands
of letters TO wholesalers and manu-
facturerS throughout the country.
One particular feature in the re-
turn correspondence we have had
this year is the hearty way in
which the merchants have re-
sponded. Every one seemed TO have
a lasting remembrance of what we
had accomplished and expressed
themselves in the friendliest way.
The labors of the raiSin day COM
mittee have been arduous- They
have been given unselhshly. There
have been no big salaries paid and
no junketings. Many leading bust
nessmen have left important mat
tiers of buSin, alone for the time
being to help US in this great work.
Too much credit can not be given
TO A L. Hobbs. chairman, and sew
