all the Coca-Cola sold is in bot
ties, the man who invented the
drink never intended it to be more
than a soda fountain beverage. In
1886 John S. Pemberton, a drug
gist, prepared a soft drink syrup
in his back yard in Atlanta, using
a three-legged iron pot heated by
a wood fire.
He took a jug of the syrup to
Jacobs Pharmacy at the historic
Five Points, where soda water
was added and the new drink put
on sale.
The first year only Is gallons
were sold, bringing in $50. Of this,
Pemberton spent SAT on adver-
Using. Most of it consisted of oil
cloth signs pinned to drugstore
awnings.
When Pemberton died two
years later, rights to Coca-Cola
were bought by a 37-year-old
wholesale drug salesman, Asa
Gambler. Back in Gamblers day
The Coca-Cola Company changed
offices several times" Dittmar
said. Zone time when it moved, a
one-horse wagon carried all the
firms equipment and furniture. !"
Gambler was a keen merchan-
diser. He originated the CocaCola
poster and calendar, using Lillian
Russell's picture, on one of them.
He was the first to use the slogan,
delicious and Refreshing" which
appeared in 1889. And to get the
public acquainted with the new
drink, he gave away millions of
tickets for free Cokes.
"They tell me in Atlanta" Dit
mar said, that even today some-
one occasionally comes across one
of these tickets in an attic. If they
send it in, they get a free case of
Coca-Cola."
X i
1t was Is years after Pemberton
invented Coca-Cola before the
drink was bottled. A young Chat
tanooga lawyer, Ben Thomas, who
had come across locally bottled
soft drink in Cuba during the
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1955-10-28

Spanish-American War, hit upon
the idea. He and another lawyer
Joseph Whitehead, went to At
lanta and asked Gambler if they
could bottle Coca-Cola.
Gambler, busy with his sods
fountain sales, gave them the bot
Ting rights to practically the en-
tire country. This was one of the
most amazing contracts in history
and Whitehead didn't
pay a cent. And the man who had
given them a letter of introduce
ton to Gambler didn't think
enough of the product to ask for
even single share for himself.
Dittmar pointed out that early
bottling equipment was far diff
ferent from today's. BOTTLES were
washed by dropping buckshot in
them and whirling it in water.
They also used those old-fash-
Toned sewing machines, equipped
with a brush to scour the bottles"
Coca-Cola was the first soft
drink company to use coolers.
''The early ones were actually
wooden tubs, sawed in half" said
Mr.. Dittmar. "The first electric
cooler came out in 1888"
Dittmar thinks the secret of
Coca-Cola's success is best sum-
med up in the way the trade
mark is Theoretically translated in
Chinese. In China, where Coca
Cola is a popular drink, it means:
MAKE man mouth happy"

Jacksonville shoppers are find
ing Coca-Cola in a new king size
bottle in addition to the familiar
6l1-oz. bottle. The king size bot
tie holds 10 ounces and is offered
in x-bottle cartons similar to the
cartons used for the standard size.
Hood Dittmar, manager of the
Jacksonville Coca-Cola Bottling
Company, said that the king size
bottle will have the same familiar
shape that has made the standard
bottle famous the world over. The
new bottle will, of course, be
taller.
Dittmar emphasized that the
new king size was not being Of

standard bottle. Now, customers

he said, "the standard size, per-
feet for individual refreshment;
and the new king size, just right

The quality for which Coca
Cola is famous will be rigidly
maintained in both packages,
Dittmar emphasized. The king size
will be bottled in the Jacksonville

The doll was Bills donation
