constant attendance at the telephone
for orders and close supervision over
stock control records and an ade-
quate bookkeeping system. One
horse and wagon were the visible as
sets of the concern when it started.
The spirit of the unique manager
is best described by the fact that she
margined on the notes from which
this story is made. the information
that "colored woman photographer
made this picture" referring to
photograph of herself and the bust
ness of the firm. She is an active
officer in the local N. A. A. C. P. and
will be a delegate to the annual con-
vention at Pittsburgh this summer.
In an interview with the commerce
specialist who found in her office
the most modern methods of conduct
ing business and the latest and most
efficient measuring devices for the
protection of the public as well as
the concern, Mrs. Jones. who. by the
wav. is only % years old, said:
at has been a difficult task for
me, but have tried to play the game
of business according to approved
rules. Up to this point we have sue
ceeded and are hoping to continue
making steady gains, to create
business which will provide employ
ment for many persons whose oppor-
tunities are limited. and at the same
time adhere faithfully to those rules
of policy and practice which insure
permanent success"
Then came a bold declaration,
proved by the books that inspired
this story: declaration which Mr..
Jackson states can be made bv all
too few business persons. Mrs. Jones
continued:
cat the close of each business day
| know the exact state of my bust
ness and what l may expect on the
morrow. / have not reached the
point at which l may begin enlarge
ments. | shall begin with intelli-
gently enlarging my advertisement
expenditures, for in that way lies
commercial victory"
In addition to the employees,
the business associates of Mrs. Jones
are Mr.. and Mrs. w. H. Middleton,
her father and mother and an uncle,
Mr.. Thomas. It's closed corporation
with corking good management.
