The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1912-01-03

tdurant last night and enjoyed a most
sumptuous repast, as can only be
served by Pensacola's popular restau-
rant man. THE Getters' Club is
composed of the members of the cir
culation department of The Pensacola
Journal, the men who work from thres
o'clock in the morning until late at
night, the men who do the most i'm
portant and most essential work of tho
entire paper, and the men who have
their hearts in their work.
The banquet hall was uniquely
decorated for the occasion, the walls
being covered with appropriate mot
toes, which is one of the secrets Of
the success of The Journals circula-
ton department. Mr.. Herrider, man
ager Of the circulation department, is
cranky on two subjects-one is circu-
lation and the other is notices, hence
the notices for decorations.
Each of the members and guests
were given odd fayors. Odd because
they were unusual. Mr.. Herrider said
that the favors were suggested be-
cause he found one Of the circulation
men, Mr.. Zerr, to be accurate, using
the push up" which was given as IA
vors This article is the life of the
circulation department now and is
pushing the circulation of The Journal
beyond any record ever accomplished
by newspaper in West Florida. This
push up'-the real article--cannot be
bought in bulk, but little square yeast
cakes wrapped in tinfoil, tied in red
ribbon and tagged, "Getters' Club 1912
Push Up" we're given as favors typify-
ing the real push up" spirit which Mr.
Zerr discovered and which his asso-
ciates are using.
Rev. Eugene r. Pendleton, pastor Of
the First Baptist church, Leland J.
Henderson, secretary of the CONNER
cia1 Association, and Frank l.. Mayes.
editor of The Pensa cola Journal, gave
short talks, which were greatly en-
joyed by the banqueters In intro
s ducing the speakers Mr.. Herrider, as
toastTnaster, pointed out that the
speakers were men who had succeeded
IN their respective lines of work, and
that their success had been attained
by work. In speaking of the subject
Putting Ones Self Into the Work"
Mr.. Pendleton gave many examples of
where rich rewards resulted from a
man or woman putting themselves into
their work, while others make utter
failures of seemingly brilliant chances
because they failed to put themselves
into their work.
Mr.. Henderson spoke on THE Folly
of Being Satisfied" giving a straight
forward talk which was we'll received.
Mr.. Mayes spoke on Circulation and
Our Shortcomings. He said that his
subject exactly suited him. The cir
culation of The Journal is so satisfac-
tory and the shortcomings of the men
In that department are so few that ha
could only say words of congratulation.
The circulation department, he said,
had outgrown any other department
during the closing year. which was
only possible by united and systema Tic
efforts.
The program for the evening and
the menu was very attractive one,
