Edited by Ralph L. Wood, Principal.

Correspondence Schools, Scranton, Pa.
Here's a quotation from the Dry
Goods Economist of May %, which
furnishes food for thought:
Forty-fve years in the same depart
ment, and for the last twenty-nine
years it's head, is the record of Miss
Margaret Fitzgibbons, who rules the
coats and suits in Rosenbaum's, Ell
mira, N. Y.
81 don't see why department store
sales people want to be continually
moving around" said Miss Fitzgib-
bons. "They do better to go along
steadily, earning promotion and build
ing up clientele. When one changes
positions frequently it means that new
friendships, new business condolences
and new personal relations outside
the store must be built up-the last
of course, if one chances ones home
also. My department is part of my
life. l have helped build it, seen it
grow, and it has rewarded me-"
Mr.. Rosenbaum, head of Miss Fitz-
gibbons firm, speaking from the
stapdnoint of the store, also depre-
Gated frequent shifts. He said, A
change in department managers af-
fects the departments involved much
as thought the location of ones busi-
ness was changed. The necessary re-
adjustment is frequently of no ad-
vantage. Each department has fol-
lowing, which is disrupted when new
managed is secured, and the new head
must do a good deal of work to re-
establish it. My own girls stay with
me long time, and believe it pays
both the individual and the store bet
ter when this is the case"
The first thought that comes to
mind in connection with this article is
that staying with the job is likely to
be profitable to the employee who
realize the opportunities afforded by
the job and who does her utmost to
realize these possibilities.
The second thought is that it is
even more desirable from the stand.
point of the employer to have his
workers stay on the job. A well Sc.
lected selling force that does not
change to any extent is one of the
biggest assets store can have. New
workers cost a store considerable
money. One store that gives training
to new workers, after a careful study
has shown that each new sales per
son costs store 5000.

ALL EXPECTATIONS
Farmers Citrus Club in Marion
County Has Come Into
Strong Favor

Interest in the Farmers Citrus
Club, being promoted in Marion coun-
ty by the Munroe & Chambliss Ma
tional Bank, has exceeded all expecta-
tions. More than forty-five farmers
in various parts of the county have
made application to become members
OF the club. Inc bank, however, is
limiting the membership to twenty
five, taking the position that the agri-
cultural agent, under whose direction
the club members VIII york, will have
as much as he car do to look after
this many two-ac1c groves and at the
same time give his attention to his
many other activities. Each of the
members in the club will plant two
acre grove. Thee will be fifty acres
iii trees all told, including 700 pine
apple" orange trees, 1000 "Parson
Brown" oranges, 1873 "Dancy" tango
rines and 1895 "Wanurco" tangerines.
"The bank fees highly pleased with
the spirit with which the growers are
going into the club" says Mr.. De-
Witt Griffin, cashier of the Munroe &
Chambliss National Bank, "and be-
lieves that the members will give
their groves the proper attention. The
bank is also satisfied that if Mr.. K. C.
Moore, the county agricultural agent,
has the proper cooperation he will
demonstrate the adaptability of Mar

rus fruits in connection with diversi-
fled farmers, and we believe that Mr..
Moore will receive this cooperation
from the growers"
! The groves will be set out during
| the month of December. They will
! be located in every section of the
county and most of them on the mair
highways. A record will be kept OF
every grove. The bank has been es.
pecially interested in having most Of

MOVIES OF SILVER SPRINGS

The following news item, from the
Radiogram issued on board the Clyde
steamship Lenape en- route to Jack
sonville, will be of interest to Ocalans:
"We have with US: Mr.. Spencer G.
Bennett and Edward J. Snyder of
New York city, who represent the
Pathe Review in the capacity of direc-
tor and camera man, respectively.
They are en- route to Silver Springs,
Fla, where they plan to film some
marvellous under water scenes. They
have arranged to sink a specially con-
structed diving bell into which they
will lower their camera and endeavor
to photograph the numerous inlets,
caves and under water growths.
Scenes will be made of water sports
such as swimming, diving, fetching
and other feats-all to be taken as one
would see from an angle several feet
below the surface. Should any pas
senger of the fairer sex be bathing
at Silver Springs in the near future,
just bear in mind the submarine pho
tographer. The movie men believe
that nowhere can water be found to
equal the clearness of Silver Springs
They have made experiments show
ing a distance of what would be the
equivalent of three city blocks as
clear as If they had been taken thru
the air"
Messrs. Bennett and Snyder have
arrived and are busy today making
preparations for these wonderful pic.
lures of our famous springs. The
Dunn diving outfit, a new invention tc
be used in making these under water
pictures, is expected today or Mon
day. The making of these under wa
ter views will be especially interesting
and our people will miss a big trea
If they fail to take an occasional tril
to the springs to see the operations
Mr.. Bennett will be remembered il
Ocala as the director who made
number of views at Silver Springs las
May which have been exhibited al
over the world during the summer.
Messrs. Bennett and Snyder hop
that as many people as possible wi
visit the springs tomorrow. They Wi
have an opportunity to see movie
made and get into the picture.

VOLUSIA CONCLUDED
Jacksonville Journal)

DeLand, Nov. 17.-Declaring they
have accomplished their purpose in
breaking up corrupt political organi-
cations which sought to sway cleo
tions by negro votes the local chapter
of the Ku Klux Klan today announced
in newspaper statement here they
have disbanded.
The statement was signed by the
committee of knights.
The instrument said that DeLand
had been overrun two years ago in
| its municipal election by purchased
negro votes and that the organization
was formed to break up the practice.
The DeLand organization was one
of the strongest and most active in
Florida.
| During the June primaries this
Organization nominated a complete
county ticket.
That the slightest movement might
have precipitated a race controversy
of serious propensity in this section
because nearly every voter carried
knife or gun was pointed out by the
announcement.
The statement in full follows.
! Having accomplished the purpose
for which it was organized this Klan
has now disbanded. We invite the at
tention of the public to conditions
which existed several years ago when
negroes, whose poll taxes had been
paid en- bloc in violation of the law,
were brought to polling places in this
city in automobiles hired by the same
politicians who had illegally paid their
poll taxes.
Liquor was freely distributed a.
mong them and they lined the streets
a boisterous, unruly crowd. Many
carried knives and guns. The slight
est unfortunate circumstances could
easily have resulted in a race riot
This state of affairs eliminated in a
city election at which time scarcely
more than 100 white people, together
with the bought negro vote, were able
to elect their candidates over prac-
tically the entire self-respecting ele-
: ment of the city"
. After this setback to good govern
ment, it appeared to many that t.

solution of these evils. The Klar
was accordingly organized and attain
ed immediate success. No one ha:
dared to attempt to buy negro vote.

Congress officially washed its

1t was learned later in the day that
individual members Of the House
District Committee are considering
calling upon the Commissioners and
the President in an effort to place
the District on the old-time sched-
uls.
Following the meeting Of the
House District Committee in which
II was decided to table the Ham
mer resolution authorizing the Dis
t.ict Commissioners to advance the
time one hour, members of the
committee explained that the House
was opposed to the reintroduction
of the daylight saving law in
Washington, and in their judgment
there was no possibility of secur-
ing relief through legislation.
Representative Frederick n. Zihl-
man was of the opinion that the
regulations now in force would be
repealed following the action of
Congress. other members of the

probably call on the President and

TO REVOKE
BAN ON SELLING OF
MUSIC PROGRAMS
Commissioners Explain
They Fear to Begin
Discrimination.
BUSINESS MEN AID
Civic Organizations to Help
In Move to Defray $4,000
Expense of Week.

The District Commissioners will
not withdraw their ruling against
the sale of Music Week programs
ON the CITY streets. 1t was learned
yesterday
Music Week will begin. Sunday
and continue the following seven
days. Eight thousand dollars n
needed to finance the elaborate
program, and the sale OF the pro-
grams had been counted on to raise
the bulk of this sum.
Those behind the Music Week
celebration had hoped vafnly that
the Commissioners in view of the
worthy purpose OF the movement.
would relent from their decision
and permit the programs to be sold
on the streets, despite the recently
adopted ordinance against such
things.
10000 Programs Printed.
A tentative promise had been
given by the Commissioners that
they would allow the programs to
be sold from the streets. according
to Edward Droop, one of the prime
movers behind the Music Week
celebration. Having this promise,
Mr.. Droop declared. the. organiza-
tion proceeded to have 10000
souvenir programs printed with the
