FORCHEIMERS TO
Be NAME new STORE
Fashion Shop and Boston Shoe Store viii
BE Consolidated.

With the trend of business northward.
Forcheimer's Fashion Shop and the Bos-
ton Shoe Store. in the future to consoli-
date and be known as Forcheimers, will
follow the line Of progress having leased
the store now occupied by White and
White, who are to move to the site Of
the Rays Corner Hardware Company.
The Boston Shoe Store is on OF the
oldest business firms in the city, and
one of the most successful, and this
success has been duplicated in the Fash
ion Shop, which for a number OF years
has been one of the leading stores for
women, and has made for itself name
for smart clothes and distinctive styles.
Prior to the removal the entire stocks
of both these stores will go on sale' in
order to facilitate removal.
The bargains which are being displayed
at both stores are already receiving the
attention of the buying public, and 1t
Is safe to say that by the time the move
is made the clearance sale will have &C
coplished much in the way OF making
room for smarter and more attractive
goods, though it would be difficult to beat
the present styles which are being offered
at such low prices.

PENSACOLA IS
RANKING PORT
FOR IMPORTS
Leads Every Port in State by
More Than Million Dollars.
FLORIDA SHIPPING
SHOWS BIG INCREASE
Uncle Sam Gets Over 100000
Duties From Local Imports in
May.

That Pensacola has Just claim as
one of the three leading ports of
Florida is proven by the report of
shipping through Florida ports sent
out by Matthew B. McFarlane, COL
lector of customs, fr this state. In total
value of exports during the month of
April, Pensacola. ranked second only
to Key West with valuation of $728,-
-69S. Key West reports a valuation of
s2,077,62
Jacksonville ranked third with $780,
391, while Tampa was fourth with a
total valuation for April of $365,777.
Fourth In April Imports
Jacksonville enjoyed the heaviest
importation during April with a val
uation Of $666,934, Tampa following
up with $376,757, Key West took third
place, and Pensacola appears fourth
on the list.
Florida exports during April, 1922
amounted to $3,9S2,529, as against a
total of S5,820,4S7 of the same month
of the previous year. The imports were
Of $1,3S6,013 against $2,421,9 $50.
Enormous Increase
The report for May of this year
however, shows an enormous increase
over April, with the exports heavier by
nearly Two million dollars and the i'm
ports registering an increase of over
three millions. The exports for May
of this year exceed those of the same
month last year by half a million
while the imports have increased more
than three million. All of which shows
that Florida seapOrts are swiftly re-
gaining the business lost during the
depression Immediately following the
war.
Pensacola Leads
In May exports Pensacola fell from
second to fourth place, but more than
made up for it by taking the lead in
imports with a total valuation Of ST.
S60,795, the heaviest import valuation
in Florida in several years. or this
amount, Uncle Sam received more
than 100000 from duties. Pensacola
phenomenal gain in imports during
Nav is attributed to the five large
cargoes of whale oil imported by Nor
wegian whaling concerns from the
South Shetland Islands, which was
subject to a duty of five cents on the
gallon.
Key West Second
Pensacola's dutiable imports al
together for May amounted to $2,494.-
3s7. while the total valuation Of all
imports for May 1921 was slightly over
s15O,000
Key West consistently remains near
the leadership in Florida exports, the
value for May of this year being ST.
296,OS1, placing her in second place:
Tampa was third with $41S,66l' and
Jacksonville fourth with $17S,7S5.
