FROM OUR
EXCHANGES
OLDEST POSTMISTRESS
INVITED TO WHITE HOUSE

Talbot is very proud that Miss Mary
W. Stewart, the nations oldest post
master in point of service, may crown
her sixty-two years of service with a
visit to the White House.
"Miss Mollie", as she is affection
ately known throughout this section
among her "clients" is Hervey Al
len, author of Anthony Adverse,
who owns summer home outside Of
Oxford been invited to be in the
receiving line at White House tea
given by Mrs. Roosevelt, October IL
during the National Postmasters' AS
ISOLATION meeting there. The tea will
be given for the women who will come
to Washington as result of the post
masters convention.
Her friends greeted it as another
'non-politicaP triumph for the graci-
Gus lady who took over the Oxford
postoffice when her father died and
since has weathered many a political
storm over her job.
The first appointment-dated March
A, 1877-came four days after Ruther-
ford B. Hayes succeeded President
Ulysses S. Grant. Before that, how
ever, she had spent most of her time
sorting and delivering mail for her
father. James Stewart, who ran the
postoffice in his general store.
Postoffice records in Washington
show that "Miss Mollie" now in her
eighties, must extend her services re-
cord some twelve or thirteen years to
beat the all-time long-service mark
established by Roswell Beardsley, of
North Lansing, N. Y, who, at the
time of his death January 6, 1908, had
served continuously more than seven
ty-four years.

MIRACLE HOUSE CLOSES
SUCCESSFUL SEASON

The Miracle House at Claiborne will
! finally close it doors this week. The
regular season ends the first of Sep
TENDER, but since then lot of young
girls, from fourteen to twenty have
been there recuperating and gaining
strength and weight.
This is service that will be a fea-
ture hereafter, and next year larger
number will be accepted.
These girls are not under the super
vision that the smaller children were,
they spend most of their time sitting,
reading, eating and sleeping and this
is what they need. Every one of
them gained in weight, and the three
weeks they are there cost the Asso-
citation considerable, but the result
has been well worth it, Mr.. Mat
thews says.
Because there is now heat in the
main buildings, it is possible that next
year there will be services given to
even older people, and this is one of
the things that the Association now
has under consideration.

tiers and small towns, sums up the
case for the small town in these
words:
"The big-town workman seems to be
selling his time by the minute. In fact
I sometimes get the notion that he is
selling me about 80 cents worth of
time for dollar. He is emphatic
about his rights, and rather quiet
about his obligations.
"The small-town workman seems to
have an ambition to do better job
than he agreed to do. He hopes the
plant will make a profit and tries to
help everything along. He never leav-
es the hammer in the air.
with plant full Of men like that
we can get somewhere with production
costs. The small town is our best
chance"
Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise. (Pocomoke City, Md.) 1921-1953, 1939-10-06

which is subject from hour to hour to
the hayward influences of human be-
havior-labor cost-keeps the aver
age manufacturing concern in an al
most continuous state Of speculation
throughout the year.
During the last decade there has
been a marked tendency on the part
of manufacturers to seek locations in
small towns-not to find cheap labor
but rather to find an environment
which is less conducive to fluctuations
and uncertainties in labor costs. The
labor cost of a product that brings
manufacturer a dollar is usually
about 25 cents. iSnce his net profit
is usually between one cent and five
cents, a comparatively slight unfa-
vorable change in the labor cost will
wipe out all profits he expected to
gain.
Manufacturers have had enough ex-
perience with small towns to arrive
at some rather interesting conclusions
on the subject.
The most important conclusion is
that in the smaller town a low cost of
production is more readily attainable
and it's level is more dependable than
in the large industrial centers.
They have also learned that a low
wage scale does not necessarily pro-
duce a low manufacturing cost. The
experienced manufacturer avoids
cheap labor. What he seeks is intel
ligent, cooperative and consistent
workmen. He has learned that he can
with the aid of such worlmen, lower
his costs without reducing the wage
scale: and that the small-town en-
vironment makes this result possible.
Why? While the wage scale is US
ually lower In the small town, the
worker is satisfied with his income
because he actually gets more of the
worlds goods and comforts for his
money than does the worker in the big
industrial center. Food and housing,
Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise. (Pocomoke City, Md.) 1921-1953, 1939-10-06

the two burdensome items on the fam
lily budget, cost the small-town man
from $3.50 to 500 less than the prices
charged in the big manufacturing
towns. The small-town man is sub
ject to less financial strain, and is
therefore likely to be more efficient
and less rebellious.
Public opinion is perhaps the most
powerful disciplinary influence on the
plant operatives in the small town.
In the smaller community, where
life is lived more or less in a glass
house and subject to ublic observa-
ton, comment and criticism, the frown
of disapproval has a signal effect up
on the workman who drops to low
standards of performance. The loaf
er and staller are spotted quickly, and
the word gets around. The man of real
ability, the man who is cooperative
and aids in keeping down factory
costs, wins recognition and promo
ton more rapidly.
The manufacturer today who seeks
a plant location thinks as much of
the character of the town as he does
of the quoted labor prices; he knows
that if the spirit of the worker isn't
right the plant will suffer the expense
of disorganiation of production, dam
aged materials, high inspection costs
and labor turnovers which, in few
short months, will use up the one
cent or five cents that under favorable
conditions would have been profit.

able number of plants in various parts
of the country, in large industrial CEN

DELAWARE MARKETS
THOUSANDS OF TURKEYS

At least $4,000 turkeys are being
prepared by Delaware farmers for
Thanksgiving dinners, according to
reports of the U. S. Agriculture Mar
keting Service. The average yearly
number of turkeys in Delaware from
1931-1935 was $4,000. Last year it was
100000.
A national increase of % per cent
indicates that this years flock of tur-
keys will be the largest ever produc-
ed.
The turkeys have increased In size
as well as numbers. The average
bird weighs about II pounds for hens
and IL pounds for gobblers.
Preseason estimates show the grow
ers intend to market about 10 per cent
of their flocks in October and about
IS per cent in November. The total
number in the entire United States
is 31,957,OO0.

PROFIT IS NOT
ALWAYS MADE
FROM A SALE

Many otherwise informer people
seem to think that a profit is the in
evitable result of a sale.
The fact is, of course, that tremen-
dous quantities of goods are sold daily
without profit. The financial state
ments of many manufacturing COM
panies reveal astonishing losses, even
during good times; and large profits
are the rare exceptions. If manu-
featuring concern comes through a
year with as much as $50 profits on
its sales it is an enviable position,
and lucky if it isn't all lost in the next
six months.
Manufacture, expressed in simple
terms is process by which raw ma
terials are transformed into disable
goods by the application of labor. The
process requires the use of money, and
the record shows that the manufac-
turer must risk at least one dollar of
his money in order to have the oppor-
tunity to earn a net profit of five
cents.
Every item of cost must be careful
ly watched. Those items whose cost
can be approximately fixed by con-
tract are in some measure tractable,
or at least practicable from season to
season. But one of the major items
