Remarkable Record Made This Sum.
mer by Local AoGel-Duo to I,s
management.

hendersonYiHe IS the home vi many
WonderfuItpeop real cosmupolitall
c1Iy-Wnere clClzens from every sta1e
! IN the Union gather to ENJOY the nealt.s
and climate or this glorious moanta.n
section. Some people come here sim
ply forest and regain their health,
Wn4le others have moved here to Wor,
and make money.
Its an admitted fact that the chic,
industry OF this city is the tourist bus
mess. Managing hotels and boardIna
houses command the biggest jobs in thu
summer season, Wnen HendersonVille
population doubles and almost trebles
during August. The majority of the
boarding houses are managed by wo-
men. Two OF the largest hotels in tha
city are managed by women.
How many people in hendersonville
knew that for three days and three
nights during the busiest part oe the
season one hotel fed tive hundred peo-
pie three meals each day? By actual
count that was what happened at The
Kentucky Home this summer.
The credit OF this achievement
Tightfully belongs to Miss Mary Brown.
Who took charge of the hotel the day
that r.. B. Wooten was given posses
sion when he purchased 1t from Mrs
A. M. Cover. Miss Brown is a busi-
ness woman. and inherited the instinct
of successfully managing hotel Her
father and grandfather conducted
summer resort out in Tennessee and
except for the time she was in a col
lege she has spent practically her en-
tire life in a hotel. Miss Brown is quite
young in age but old in knowledge or
the hotel business. Besides looking
after the business end she keep direcL
supervision over the large force OF
help, does the buying and still finds
ample time to care tor the comforts
and entertainments of her guests
During the busy season nearly ffty
people are employed in various depart
-ments of the hotel
Miss Brown has been assisted in the
business Office by John Wooten. son Of
e. B. Wooten, the proprietor. The
elder Mr.. Wooten, has been quite busy
this summer managing his hotel in Co
Iumbia, The Imperial, and has not been
able to spend more than day at
time here.
The Kentucky Home is now enjoying
one OF the largest seasons in it's his
tory. Even last Saturday night every
seat in the spacious dining room was
filled with guests.

GROWTH OF THE ARMY
ORDNANCE
Washington, D. c., December 1917.

Washington, D. c., December 1917.
Before the wa began the United
States Government employed ap-
proximately 100000 persons in the
civil branch. Now that this country
is actually in the conflict, the great
army of workers behind the fighting
forces is growing by tens of thou
sands. A good example Of this rap
id addition of employees is in the
civilian force Of the Ordnance De-
partment of the Army. Seven large
privately owned office buildings il
Washington are required to house
the officials and clerks Of this force,
in addition to the usual quarters in
the State, War, and Navy Buildin~,
which were sufficient before Uncle
Sam began to prepare for war. The
Gun Division alone, which did not
exist as separate division before We
entered the war, now has more than
two thousand civilian employees be-
sides about three hundred commits
stoned officers. and it is estima ted
THAT this division will be three times
its present size within year The
great manufacturing plants of the
Ordnance Department in various
parts of the country employed ahou-
10000 men last spring. Now 10000
are at work in these establishments.
The task Of supplying these thou
sands of workers in the face Of the
greatest demand for labor the coun-
try has ever known is the problem of
the United States Civil Service Com
mission. At this time great num-
hers Of men and women are needed

Persistent Advertising Pays

If there is one enterprise On
earth that a gutter should ieav.
entirely alone, it is advertising. To
make . success of advertising one
must b. prepared to stick like a bar
nacle on a boats bottom. He should
know before he begins it that he
must spend money-lots of it..
Somebody must tell him that he
cannot hope to reap results COM
naensur.te with his expenditure

doesn't jerk; it pulls. 1t begins
very gently at first, but the pull i.
steady. 1t increases day by day

schnitt, chairman Of the executive
committee of the Southern Pacific
railroad, one Of the twenty-five de-
PENDANTS in a federal suit to recover
461 900 acres of oil land in California,
was witness here yesterday before

Der, 1915, and has been carried to a
number Of different cities.
Mr.. Kruttschnitt, testifying yester-
day, said that during the period in
volved in the suit he was general man
ager for the road. He asserted that he
and ]. B. Treadwell had the care Of
the lands in question and that it was
not until Treadwell had made numer-
Gus reservations" of land which con-
tanned oil wells--to such an extent that
the land department Of the road was
tied up--that he, the witness, and
higher officials Of the road were aware
Of the oil value OF the land He further
testified that e. H. Hartman, then
dominant figure in the Southern, Paci-
f1c directorate, had ordered sold $50
acres Of the land and the purchasers
later resoId to the road about $4,000
600 Of oil from the same land. The
road, the testimony showed, now uses
about 100000 barrels Of fuel oil
monthly, OF which about 100000 bar
rels are obtained from the lands in
Al. -
fed that he had nothing to do with
the details OF the land department,
nor did he know anything about the
patents to the land In question.
