Since the introduction of q bill In the
legislature few days ago proposing the
abolition of the State Marketing Bureau,
numerous expressions of interest have
been heard from people who are inter-
ested. In view OF which the following first
hand Information concerning the value
and scope OF the department. from an
authority on the subject will be Of inter-
est at this time:
Some twenty-five Of the most progress
sive states, including Florida. have IN
the last few years created state market
ing bureaus. to advise with farmers and
producers In disposing of their surplus
products Experience has shown that
many Of our farmers are good producers,
but are not up in the art of salesman-

One of the best things along educa -

recently, and which has secured great
deal of commendable publicity from news
papers and letters OF endorsement from
business organizations in the largest
cities. Is the lecture and moving pictures
on retail merchandising that is now being

this entertainment for the benefit Of the
merchants and clerks of Pensacola and
1t will be presented at the city hall
Monday evening at o'clock.
The title Of the picture is 1.-THE Trou-
bies Of Merchant and How to Stop
Them. and. is pronounced one of the clev-
crest pieces of work ever produced COW
ering retail merchandising.
The wide-awake business man today 10
eager to keep pace with the latest ideas
of storekeeping and better ideas in mer-
chandising and these pictures and lee
lures come to our city at an opportune
time The lecture covers: Retail failures
their causes; store organization; news
paper advertising; window display; clerks
efficiency: selling methods; credit bust
ness, and system in retail business.
Any one Of these subjects would be of
great interest to the merchants and
clerks. and the one in pactcular which
should receive favorable consideration
from the business man today is the value
of newspaper observation-disclosures
give some useful hints along these lines.
as well as other phases of efficiency
methods that will be helpful to the mer-
