Description
Collection of United States Census population records for various counties in Central Florida from 1840 to 2000.
The Census Act of 1840 was signed into law on March 3, 1839 and later amended on February 26, 1840. This piece of legislation established a centralized census office during each enumeration. Congress designated the census questionnaire designs to the Secretary of State. However, each household received inquiries regarding "the pursuits, industry, education, and resources of the country" and included questions related to school attendance, literacy, and vocation.
In March of 1849, Congress pass legislation that established a census board consisting of the Secretary of State, the Attorney General, and the Postmaster General. The board was responsible for preparing and printing forms and schedules for enumeration related to population, mining, agriculture, commerce, manufacturing, education, etc. The 1850 Census also increased population inquiries to include every free person's name (as opposed to just the head of the household), as well as information on taxes, schools, crime, wages, estate values, etc.
The Census Act of 1850 authorized the U.S. Census of 1860 and stipulated that its provisions be adhered to for all future decennial censuses should no new legislation be passed by the first of the year of said census. In May of 1865, the U.S. Census Office was abolished and many superintending clerks were transferred to the General Land Office.
Although the 1870 Census was conducted under the provisions of the Census Act of 1850, a new act was passed on May 6, 1870. The new census legislation required two changes in procedures related to questionnaire return submission dates. Moreover, penalties for refusing to reply to inquires were expanded to apply to all questions and questionnaires. The questionnaires themselves had to be redesigned due to the end of the "slave questionnaire", as slavery had been formally abolished slavery nationwide via the Thirteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. This left five schedules for the census: General Population, Mortality, Agriculture, Products of Industry, and Social Statistics. In addition, the use of a Charles W. Seaton, a U.S. Census Office chief clerk and later superintendent, invited a rudimentary tallying machine that partially alleviated the difficulties of tallying and tabulating questionnaire responses. Finally, the new superintendent for the Ninth Census, General Francis A. Walker, introduced employment examinations to test the qualifications of applicants to the Census Office, allowing for increased efficiency in the process of collecting census data.
The newest act authorizing the Census of 1880 provided for supervision of enumeration by "supervisors of the census", selected exclusively for the collection of census data. All supervisors, as well as the superintendent, were to appointed by the U.S. President and approved by the Senate. Census enumerators were required to personally visit each household and family within his subdivision. The new census act also allowed for the collection of data related to the condition and operation of railroad corporations, incorporated express companies, and telegraph companies, as well as data related to the condition and operation of life, fire, and marine insurance companies. Corporations who refused to provide the census with "true and complete" answers were subject to fines. In addition, the census superintendent was required to collect and publish data on the population, industries and resources of the District of Alaska. Finally, the 1880 Census consisted of five schedules: Population, Mortality, Agriculture, Social Statistics, and Manufacturing.
The Census of 1890 was authorized by an act modeled after the 1880 enumeration and signed into law on March 1, 1889. The 1890 Census was supervised by 175 employees and enumerators were required to collect all information by personally visiting each household. The 1890 Census included essentially the same inquires from the 1880 Census, with some notable additions, such as questions about home and farm ownership and indebtedness; and the names, units, length of service, and residences of former Union soldiers and sailors, as well as the names of the widows of those who were no longer alive. Racial categorization was expanded to include "Japanese", along with "Chinese", "Negro", "mulatto", "quadroon", "octoroon", and "White". Herman Hollerith, a former employee of the U.S. Census Office, invited the electric tabulating system, which was widely used in the 1890 Census, allowing data to be processed faster and more efficiently. On October 3, 1893, Congress passed a law that transferred census-related work to the direction of the commissioner of labor. Congress passed another act on March 2, 1895, effectively abolishing the U.S. Census Office and transferring the remaining responsibilities to the Office of the Secretary of the Interior.
Congress limited the Census of 1900 to content related to population, mortality, agriculture, and manufacturing. Special census agents were authorized to collect statistics related to incidents of deafness, blindness, insanity, and juvenile delinquency; as well as data on religious bodies, utilities, mining, and transportation. The act authorizing the 1900 Census designated the enumeration of military personally to the U.S. Department of War and the U.S. Department of the Navy, while Indiana Territory was to be enumerated by the commissioner of Indian Affairs. Annexed in 1898, Hawaii was included in the census for the first time. In 1902, the U.S. Census Office was officially established as a permanent organization within the U.S. Department of the Interior. The office became the U.S. Census Bureau in 1903 and was transferred to the Department of Commerce and Labor.
The Census of 1910 was approved by legislation introduced in December of 1907 and enacted in July of 1909. The delay was the result of a disagreement over the appointment of enumerators. President Theodore Roosevelt supported the hiring of enumerators via the civil service system, while Congress supported enumerators as positions of patronage. President Roosevelt successfully won the debate. This census act also changed Census Day from the traditional date of June 1st to April 15th. Additional questions regarding the nationality and native language of foreign-born persons and their parents. Funds for the U.S. Census Bureau were also increased to expand the Census' permanent workforce and created several new full-time positions, including a geographer, a chief statistician, and an assistant director. The assistant director was to be appointed by the President and approved by the Senate, while all other census employees were hired on the basis of open, competitive examinations administered by the Civil Service Commission. Despite the use of automatic counting machinery, issues with the tabulation process persisted. Finally, with the United States' entrance into World War I in 1917, the U.S. Census Bureau became a source of even more valuable purpose: the Census was able to use population and economic data to report on the populations of draft-age men, as well as information regarding each state's industrial capabilities.
The Census of 1920 changed the date of Census Day from April 15th to January 1st, as requested by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which argued that farmers' memories and harvest information would be more accurate on this day. The U.S. Census Bureau was also authorized to hire additional employees at its headquarters in Washington, D.C. and to create a special field force to collect census data. The legislation authorizing the 1920 Census also allowed for a census of manufacturing to be conducted in 1921, and for such a census to be repeated every two years thereafter, as opposed to the traditional five-year census cycle. Furthermore, a census of agriculture and livestock was to be conducted in 1925 and to be repeated every ten years thereafter. In addition, penalties for those who refused to supply information or those who supplied false information were strengthened. As a result of these changes, census of population, manufacturing, and agriculture and livestock became increasingly independent of one another.
The "usual place of abode", the location where residents regularly slept, instead of where they worked or were visiting, became the new basis for enumeration in the 1920 Census. Those with no permanent or regular residence were listed as residents of the location that they were enumerated at. Enumeration related to institutional inmates and dependent, defective, and delinquent classes were also modified. Unlike the previous census, the 1920 Census did not have inquires related to unemployment, to Union or Confederate Army or Navy service, to the number of children born, or to the length of time that a couple had been married. The Census of 1920, however, did include four additional questions: one regarding year of naturalization and three regarding native languages. Issues also arose as a result of changes in international boundaries following World War I, particularly for persons declaring birth or parental birth in Austria-Hungary, Germany, Russia, or Turkey. In response, enumerators were required to ask said persons for their province, state, or region of birth. Enumerators were not required to ask individuals how to spell their names, nor were respondents required to provide proof of various pieces of information. Race was determined by the enumerator's impressions.
The act authorizing the 1930 Census was approved on June 18, 1929, allowing for a census of population, agriculture, irrigation, draining, distribution, unemployment, and mining. For the first time, specific questions for inquiry were left to the discretion of the Director of the Census. The Census encompassed each state, as well as the District of Columbia, Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. The Governors of Guam, American Samoa, the Virginia Islands, and the Panama Canal Zone were responsible for conducting censuses in their territory. Between the date that the census act was passed and Census Day (April 1st), the stock market crashed, plunging the entire country into the Great Depression. In response, there were public and academic requests for access to unemployment data collected in the 1930 Census; however, the U.S. Census Bureau was unable to meet this demands and the bureau was accused of present unreliable data. Congress required a special unemployment census for January 1931, which ultimately confirmed the severity of the economic crisis. Another unemployment census was conducted in 1937, as mandated by Congress. Because this special census was voluntary, it allowed the Census Bureau to experiment with statistical sampling. Only two percent of households received a special census questionnaire.
Congress authorized the 1940 Census in August 1939, providing the Director of the Census the additional authority to conduct a national census of housing in each state, the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Alaska. The housing census was conducted separately, though enumerators often collection housing information at the same time that they collected population information. The Census of 1940 was the first time that the U.S. Census Bureau used advanced statistical techniques. In particular, the census used probably sampling, which had only previously been tested in a trial census of unemployment conducted the Civil Works Administration during 1933-1934, in surveys of retail stores in the 1930s, and in an official sample survey of unemployment conducted amongst two percent of American households in 1937. Probability sampling allowed for the inclusion of additional demographic questions without increasing the burden on the collection process or on data processing. Moreover, sampling the U.S. Census Bureau was able to publish preliminary returns eight months before tabulations were completed. Likewise, the census increased its number of published tables, and also was able to complete data processing with higher quality and more efficiency. New census questions focused on employment, unemployment, internal migration, and incomes—reflecting on the concerns of the Great Depression, the country's housing stock, and the need for public housing programs.
The Census of 1950 encompassed every state, Alaska, Hawaii, American Samoa, the Panama Canal Zone, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and other small American territories. For the first time, the U.S. Census Bureau enumerate American living abroad to account for members of the U.S. Armed Forces, vessel crew members, and government employees residing in foreign countries. The U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. Department of State, the U.S. Maritime Administration, and several other federal agencies were responsible for distributing and collecting census questionnaires in a cooperative effort. Persons living abroad for reasons other than what is listed above had their census information reported by families or neighbors residing in the United States, but such data was criticized as unreliable and were not published in official statistics. The 1950 Census also included a new survey on residential financing collected separately on a sample basis from owners of owner-occupied properties, rental properties, and mortgage lenders. The accuracy of the new census was increased by improved enumerator training, the use of detailed street maps for enumerators, the publication of "Missed Person" forms in local newspapers, and the designation of a specific night to conduct a special enumeration of transient individuals. Moreover, a post-enumeration survey was conducted to further verify the accuracy of the original enumeration. A sample of approximately 3,500 small areas was compared to the original census data to identify households that may have been omitted initially. Likewise, a sample of approximately 22,000 households were re-interviewed to identify persons omitted in the original enumeration count. Though not used for the 1950 Census, the UNIVersal Automatic Computer I (UNIVAC I), the first non-military computer, was used to tabulate some of the statistics for the 1954 census of economy. In August of 1954, Congress codified various census statutes, such as the Fifteenth Census Act of 1929, authorizing the decennial census and other census.
The Census of 1960 was the first to be mailed to respondents. The U.S. Postal Service delivered census questionnaires to households, the head of household was required to complete the questionnaire, and an enumerator was to pick it up. The enumeration process was divided into two stages: first, select data for each person and dwelling unit was collected; and second, more detailed economic and social data was collected from a sample of households and dwelling units. The census questionnaires for the second stage were hand-delivered by enumerators as they were collecting data from the first stage. Households receiving the second census questionnaire were to complete the form and mail it to their local census office. Twenty-five percent of the population was giving additional sample questions. Because of the increased use of sampling, less populated areas were prone to sampling variation; however, this did not significantly decrease the usefulness of census statistics gathered. Moreover, increased use of sampling reduced data processing costs. Additional questions included in the 1960 Census were related to places of works and means of transportation to work. By 1960, nearly all census data was processed using computers. The U.S. Census Bureau used a Film Optical Sensing Device for Input to Computer (FOSDIC) for the first time, thus decreasing the amount of time and money required for data input.
In 1966, the U.S. Census Bureau sought suggestions from advisory committees and from the public, resulting in numerous proposals for additional inquiries related to the scope and structure of the census, as well as in public interest for the publication of additional census data. Researchers also concluded that the 1950 Census and the 1960 Census had undercounted certain segments of the population. Moreover, they noted a growing distrust of government activity and increased resistance to responding to the census. Simultaneously, both the public and private sectors expressed need for accurate information. The U.S. Census Bureau decreased its number of questions from 66 to 23 in an effort to simplify its products. A register for densely populated areas was also created to ensure that all housing units were accounted for. A Spanish-language questionnaire was also enclosed with census questionnaires in areas with a significant amount of Spanish-speaking households. Additionally, a question on Hispanic origins or descent was asked independently from race, but only on a five-percent sample. Only five questions were given to all individuals: relationship to household head, sex, race, age, and marital status. Additional questions were asked in smaller sample groups. This was also the first census in which respondents of urban areas were asked to mail their forms to the Census Bureau, rather than to hold questionnaires for enumerators.
Address Coding Guides were used to assign census geographic codes to questionnaires. Counts, a series of computer tape files, were an additional innovation used to increase the accuracy of census data. Count 1 consisted of complete count data for block groups and/or enumeration districts. Count 2 contained census tracts and minor civil/census county divisions, while Count 3 consisted of census blocks. Counts 4-6 provided sample census data for geographic areas of various population sizes. The Census Bureau also produced six Public Use Microdata Sample files, each of which contained complete information for a sample of approximately two million people. Finally, the Census Bureau developed the Summary Tape Processing Center Program, which was a group of organizations, both public and private, that processed census data from computer tapes.
For the 1990 Census, the U.S. Census Bureau utilized extensive user consultation prior to enumeration in order to refine both long and short form census questionnaires. The short form consisted of 13 questions and was given to the entire population. The long form asked 45 questions and was given to a 20 percent sample. The long form included topics related to marital history, carpooling, residence, residential elevators, and energy usage. Unlike the 1980 Census, the new census eliminated questions regarding air conditioning, the number of bathrooms in a residence, and the type of heating equipment used. A vast advertising campaign was marketed to increase public awareness of the census via public television, radio, and print media. Like the previous census, the Census of 1990 made a special effort to enumerate groups that have historically been undercounted in previous censuses called "S-Night": individuals in homeless shelters, soup kitchens, bus and railway stations, and dormitories (enumerated separately in the 1980 Census on "M-Night"); and permanent residents in hotels and motels (enumerated separately in the 1980 Census on "T-Night"). Following legal issues filed in response to the 1980 Census regarding statistical readjustment of undercounted areas, the Census Bureau initiated a post-enumeration survey (PES), in which a contemporaneous survey of households would be conducted and compare to the census results from the official census. In a partial resolution of a 1989 lawsuit filed by New York plaintiffs, the U.S. Department of Commerce agreed to use the PES to produce population data that had been adjusted for the projected undercount and that said data would be judged against the unadjusted data by the Secretary of Commerce's Special Advisory Panel (SAP).
The Census of 1990 also introduced the U.S. to the Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing System (TIGER), which was developed by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Census Bureau. TIGER used computerized representations of various map features to geographically code addresses into appropriate census geographic areas. It also produced different maps required for census data collection and tabulation. Five years earlier, the Census Bureau became the first government agency to publish information on CD-ROM. For the 1990 Census, the bureau made detailed census data, which had previously been only available to organizations with large mainframe computers, accessible to any individual with a personal computer. Census data was also available in print, on computer tape, and on microfiche. Using two online service vendors, DIALOG and CompuServe, the Census Bureau also published select census data online.
As with previous censuses, the 1990 Census undercounted the national population, and again, the African-American population had an estimated net undercount rate that was significantly higher than the rate for other races. In July of 1991, the Secretary of Commerce announced that he did not find evidence in favor of using adjusted counts compelling—despite SAP's split vote on the issue—and chose to use unadjusted totals for the official census results. In response, the New York plaintiffs resumed the lawsuit against the Department of Commerce. A federal district court divided in favor of the DOC in April of 1993. The U.S. Court of Appeals, however, rejected the previous court ruling and ordered that the case be reheard by the federal district court. In March of 1996, the U.S. Supreme Court finally ruled in favor of the Secretary of Commerce's decision to use the unadjusted census date, but did not rule on the legality or constitutionality of the use of statistical adjustment in producing apportionment counts.

For the Census of 2000, the short form consisted of only seven questions, while the long form consisted of 52 questions and used for a 17 percent sample of the population. For the first time, race questions were not limited to a single category; rather, respondents were able to check multiple boxes. A new question related to grandparents as caregivers was also mandated by legislation passed in 1996. Disability questions were expanded to including hearing and vision impairments, as well as learning, memory, and concentration disabilities. The 2000 Census also eliminated questions related to children born, water sources, sewage disposal, and condominium status. In addition, the 2000 Census was the first in which the Internet was used as the principal medium for the dissemination of census information. Summary Files were available for download immediately upon release and individual tables could be viewed via American FactFinder, the Census Bureau's online database. Files were also available for purchase on CD-Rom and DVD.
Due to declining questionnaire mail-back rates, the U.S. Census Bureau marketed a $167 million national and local print, television, and public advertising campaign in 17 different languages. The campaign successfully brought the mail-back rate up to 67 percent. Additionally, respondents receiving the short form were given the option of responding via the Internet. Telephone questionnaire assistance centers available in 6 languages also took responses via the phone. Statistical sampling techniques were utilized in two ways: first, to alter the traditional 100 percent personal visit of non-responding households during the non-response follow-up (NRFU) process by instead following up on a smaller sample basis; second, the sampling of 750,000 housing units matched to housing unit questionnaires obtained from mail and telephone responses, as well as from personal visits. The goal of the latter was to develop adjustment factors for individuals estimated to have been missed or duplicated and to correct the census counts to produce one set of numbers. This "one-number census" would correct for net coverage errors called Integrated Coverage Measurement (ICM). Both of these measures were taken in an attempt to avoid repetition of the litigation costs generated by the 1980 Census and the 1990 Census. Despite these efforts, two lawsuits—one filed by the U.S. House of Representatives—were filed in February 1998 challenging the constitutionality and legality of the planned uses of sampling to produce apportionment counts. Both cases were decided in favor of the plaintiffs in federal district courts, but the U.S. Department of Commerce made appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court. Known as the U.S. Department of Commerce v. the U.S. House of Representatives, the Court ruled that the Census Bureau's plans to use statistical sampling for purposes of congressional apportionments violated the Census Act. The bureau revised its plan, stating that it would produce statistically adjusted data for non-apportionment uses of census data information, such as redistricting. However, in March of 2001, the Census Bureau recommended against the use of adjusted census data for redistricting due to accuracy concerns; the Secretary of Commerce determined that the unadjusted data would be released as the bureau's official redistricting data. The Director of the Census Bureau also rejected to the use of adjusted data for non-redistricting purposes in October of that same year.

Description
The Seventeenth United States Census records for Brevard County, Flagler County, Lake County, Marion County, Orange County, Osceola County, Seminole County, and Volusia County, Florida, for 1950. The census divides the population by gender, race ("white" and "black"), and native-born vs. foreign-born.

Description
Collection of United States Census population records for various counties in Central Florida from 1840 to 2000.
The Census Act of 1840 was signed into law on March 3, 1839 and later amended on February 26, 1840. This piece of legislation established a centralized census office during each enumeration. Congress designated the census questionnaire designs to the Secretary of State. However, each household received inquiries regarding "the pursuits, industry, education, and resources of the country" and included questions related to school attendance, literacy, and vocation.
In March of 1849, Congress pass legislation that established a census board consisting of the Secretary of State, the Attorney General, and the Postmaster General. The board was responsible for preparing and printing forms and schedules for enumeration related to population, mining, agriculture, commerce, manufacturing, education, etc. The 1850 Census also increased population inquiries to include every free person's name (as opposed to just the head of the household), as well as information on taxes, schools, crime, wages, estate values, etc.
The Census Act of 1850 authorized the U.S. Census of 1860 and stipulated that its provisions be adhered to for all future decennial censuses should no new legislation be passed by the first of the year of said census. In May of 1865, the U.S. Census Office was abolished and many superintending clerks were transferred to the General Land Office.
Although the 1870 Census was conducted under the provisions of the Census Act of 1850, a new act was passed on May 6, 1870. The new census legislation required two changes in procedures related to questionnaire return submission dates. Moreover, penalties for refusing to reply to inquires were expanded to apply to all questions and questionnaires. The questionnaires themselves had to be redesigned due to the end of the "slave questionnaire", as slavery had been formally abolished slavery nationwide via the Thirteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. This left five schedules for the census: General Population, Mortality, Agriculture, Products of Industry, and Social Statistics. In addition, the use of a Charles W. Seaton, a U.S. Census Office chief clerk and later superintendent, invited a rudimentary tallying machine that partially alleviated the difficulties of tallying and tabulating questionnaire responses. Finally, the new superintendent for the Ninth Census, General Francis A. Walker, introduced employment examinations to test the qualifications of applicants to the Census Office, allowing for increased efficiency in the process of collecting census data.
The newest act authorizing the Census of 1880 provided for supervision of enumeration by "supervisors of the census", selected exclusively for the collection of census data. All supervisors, as well as the superintendent, were to appointed by the U.S. President and approved by the Senate. Census enumerators were required to personally visit each household and family within his subdivision. The new census act also allowed for the collection of data related to the condition and operation of railroad corporations, incorporated express companies, and telegraph companies, as well as data related to the condition and operation of life, fire, and marine insurance companies. Corporations who refused to provide the census with "true and complete" answers were subject to fines. In addition, the census superintendent was required to collect and publish data on the population, industries and resources of the District of Alaska. Finally, the 1880 Census consisted of five schedules: Population, Mortality, Agriculture, Social Statistics, and Manufacturing.
The Census of 1890 was authorized by an act modeled after the 1880 enumeration and signed into law on March 1, 1889. The 1890 Census was supervised by 175 employees and enumerators were required to collect all information by personally visiting each household. The 1890 Census included essentially the same inquires from the 1880 Census, with some notable additions, such as questions about home and farm ownership and indebtedness; and the names, units, length of service, and residences of former Union soldiers and sailors, as well as the names of the widows of those who were no longer alive. Racial categorization was expanded to include "Japanese", along with "Chinese", "Negro", "mulatto", "quadroon", "octoroon", and "White". Herman Hollerith, a former employee of the U.S. Census Office, invited the electric tabulating system, which was widely used in the 1890 Census, allowing data to be processed faster and more efficiently. On October 3, 1893, Congress passed a law that transferred census-related work to the direction of the commissioner of labor. Congress passed another act on March 2, 1895, effectively abolishing the U.S. Census Office and transferring the remaining responsibilities to the Office of the Secretary of the Interior.
Congress limited the Census of 1900 to content related to population, mortality, agriculture, and manufacturing. Special census agents were authorized to collect statistics related to incidents of deafness, blindness, insanity, and juvenile delinquency; as well as data on religious bodies, utilities, mining, and transportation. The act authorizing the 1900 Census designated the enumeration of military personally to the U.S. Department of War and the U.S. Department of the Navy, while Indiana Territory was to be enumerated by the commissioner of Indian Affairs. Annexed in 1898, Hawaii was included in the census for the first time. In 1902, the U.S. Census Office was officially established as a permanent organization within the U.S. Department of the Interior. The office became the U.S. Census Bureau in 1903 and was transferred to the Department of Commerce and Labor.
The Census of 1910 was approved by legislation introduced in December of 1907 and enacted in July of 1909. The delay was the result of a disagreement over the appointment of enumerators. President Theodore Roosevelt supported the hiring of enumerators via the civil service system, while Congress supported enumerators as positions of patronage. President Roosevelt successfully won the debate. This census act also changed Census Day from the traditional date of June 1st to April 15th. Additional questions regarding the nationality and native language of foreign-born persons and their parents. Funds for the U.S. Census Bureau were also increased to expand the Census' permanent workforce and created several new full-time positions, including a geographer, a chief statistician, and an assistant director. The assistant director was to be appointed by the President and approved by the Senate, while all other census employees were hired on the basis of open, competitive examinations administered by the Civil Service Commission. Despite the use of automatic counting machinery, issues with the tabulation process persisted. Finally, with the United States' entrance into World War I in 1917, the U.S. Census Bureau became a source of even more valuable purpose: the Census was able to use population and economic data to report on the populations of draft-age men, as well as information regarding each state's industrial capabilities.
The Census of 1920 changed the date of Census Day from April 15th to January 1st, as requested by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which argued that farmers' memories and harvest information would be more accurate on this day. The U.S. Census Bureau was also authorized to hire additional employees at its headquarters in Washington, D.C. and to create a special field force to collect census data. The legislation authorizing the 1920 Census also allowed for a census of manufacturing to be conducted in 1921, and for such a census to be repeated every two years thereafter, as opposed to the traditional five-year census cycle. Furthermore, a census of agriculture and livestock was to be conducted in 1925 and to be repeated every ten years thereafter. In addition, penalties for those who refused to supply information or those who supplied false information were strengthened. As a result of these changes, census of population, manufacturing, and agriculture and livestock became increasingly independent of one another.
The "usual place of abode", the location where residents regularly slept, instead of where they worked or were visiting, became the new basis for enumeration in the 1920 Census. Those with no permanent or regular residence were listed as residents of the location that they were enumerated at. Enumeration related to institutional inmates and dependent, defective, and delinquent classes were also modified. Unlike the previous census, the 1920 Census did not have inquires related to unemployment, to Union or Confederate Army or Navy service, to the number of children born, or to the length of time that a couple had been married. The Census of 1920, however, did include four additional questions: one regarding year of naturalization and three regarding native languages. Issues also arose as a result of changes in international boundaries following World War I, particularly for persons declaring birth or parental birth in Austria-Hungary, Germany, Russia, or Turkey. In response, enumerators were required to ask said persons for their province, state, or region of birth. Enumerators were not required to ask individuals how to spell their names, nor were respondents required to provide proof of various pieces of information. Race was determined by the enumerator's impressions.
The act authorizing the 1930 Census was approved on June 18, 1929, allowing for a census of population, agriculture, irrigation, draining, distribution, unemployment, and mining. For the first time, specific questions for inquiry were left to the discretion of the Director of the Census. The Census encompassed each state, as well as the District of Columbia, Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. The Governors of Guam, American Samoa, the Virginia Islands, and the Panama Canal Zone were responsible for conducting censuses in their territory. Between the date that the census act was passed and Census Day (April 1st), the stock market crashed, plunging the entire country into the Great Depression. In response, there were public and academic requests for access to unemployment data collected in the 1930 Census; however, the U.S. Census Bureau was unable to meet this demands and the bureau was accused of present unreliable data. Congress required a special unemployment census for January 1931, which ultimately confirmed the severity of the economic crisis. Another unemployment census was conducted in 1937, as mandated by Congress. Because this special census was voluntary, it allowed the Census Bureau to experiment with statistical sampling. Only two percent of households received a special census questionnaire.
Congress authorized the 1940 Census in August 1939, providing the Director of the Census the additional authority to conduct a national census of housing in each state, the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Alaska. The housing census was conducted separately, though enumerators often collection housing information at the same time that they collected population information. The Census of 1940 was the first time that the U.S. Census Bureau used advanced statistical techniques. In particular, the census used probably sampling, which had only previously been tested in a trial census of unemployment conducted the Civil Works Administration during 1933-1934, in surveys of retail stores in the 1930s, and in an official sample survey of unemployment conducted amongst two percent of American households in 1937. Probability sampling allowed for the inclusion of additional demographic questions without increasing the burden on the collection process or on data processing. Moreover, sampling the U.S. Census Bureau was able to publish preliminary returns eight months before tabulations were completed. Likewise, the census increased its number of published tables, and also was able to complete data processing with higher quality and more efficiency. New census questions focused on employment, unemployment, internal migration, and incomes—reflecting on the concerns of the Great Depression, the country's housing stock, and the need for public housing programs.
The Census of 1950 encompassed every state, Alaska, Hawaii, American Samoa, the Panama Canal Zone, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and other small American territories. For the first time, the U.S. Census Bureau enumerate American living abroad to account for members of the U.S. Armed Forces, vessel crew members, and government employees residing in foreign countries. The U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. Department of State, the U.S. Maritime Administration, and several other federal agencies were responsible for distributing and collecting census questionnaires in a cooperative effort. Persons living abroad for reasons other than what is listed above had their census information reported by families or neighbors residing in the United States, but such data was criticized as unreliable and were not published in official statistics. The 1950 Census also included a new survey on residential financing collected separately on a sample basis from owners of owner-occupied properties, rental properties, and mortgage lenders. The accuracy of the new census was increased by improved enumerator training, the use of detailed street maps for enumerators, the publication of "Missed Person" forms in local newspapers, and the designation of a specific night to conduct a special enumeration of transient individuals. Moreover, a post-enumeration survey was conducted to further verify the accuracy of the original enumeration. A sample of approximately 3,500 small areas was compared to the original census data to identify households that may have been omitted initially. Likewise, a sample of approximately 22,000 households were re-interviewed to identify persons omitted in the original enumeration count. Though not used for the 1950 Census, the UNIVersal Automatic Computer I (UNIVAC I), the first non-military computer, was used to tabulate some of the statistics for the 1954 census of economy. In August of 1954, Congress codified various census statutes, such as the Fifteenth Census Act of 1929, authorizing the decennial census and other census.
The Census of 1960 was the first to be mailed to respondents. The U.S. Postal Service delivered census questionnaires to households, the head of household was required to complete the questionnaire, and an enumerator was to pick it up. The enumeration process was divided into two stages: first, select data for each person and dwelling unit was collected; and second, more detailed economic and social data was collected from a sample of households and dwelling units. The census questionnaires for the second stage were hand-delivered by enumerators as they were collecting data from the first stage. Households receiving the second census questionnaire were to complete the form and mail it to their local census office. Twenty-five percent of the population was giving additional sample questions. Because of the increased use of sampling, less populated areas were prone to sampling variation; however, this did not significantly decrease the usefulness of census statistics gathered. Moreover, increased use of sampling reduced data processing costs. Additional questions included in the 1960 Census were related to places of works and means of transportation to work. By 1960, nearly all census data was processed using computers. The U.S. Census Bureau used a Film Optical Sensing Device for Input to Computer (FOSDIC) for the first time, thus decreasing the amount of time and money required for data input.
In 1966, the U.S. Census Bureau sought suggestions from advisory committees and from the public, resulting in numerous proposals for additional inquiries related to the scope and structure of the census, as well as in public interest for the publication of additional census data. Researchers also concluded that the 1950 Census and the 1960 Census had undercounted certain segments of the population. Moreover, they noted a growing distrust of government activity and increased resistance to responding to the census. Simultaneously, both the public and private sectors expressed need for accurate information. The U.S. Census Bureau decreased its number of questions from 66 to 23 in an effort to simplify its products. A register for densely populated areas was also created to ensure that all housing units were accounted for. A Spanish-language questionnaire was also enclosed with census questionnaires in areas with a significant amount of Spanish-speaking households. Additionally, a question on Hispanic origins or descent was asked independently from race, but only on a five-percent sample. Only five questions were given to all individuals: relationship to household head, sex, race, age, and marital status. Additional questions were asked in smaller sample groups. This was also the first census in which respondents of urban areas were asked to mail their forms to the Census Bureau, rather than to hold questionnaires for enumerators.
Address Coding Guides were used to assign census geographic codes to questionnaires. Counts, a series of computer tape files, were an additional innovation used to increase the accuracy of census data. Count 1 consisted of complete count data for block groups and/or enumeration districts. Count 2 contained census tracts and minor civil/census county divisions, while Count 3 consisted of census blocks. Counts 4-6 provided sample census data for geographic areas of various population sizes. The Census Bureau also produced six Public Use Microdata Sample files, each of which contained complete information for a sample of approximately two million people. Finally, the Census Bureau developed the Summary Tape Processing Center Program, which was a group of organizations, both public and private, that processed census data from computer tapes.
For the 1990 Census, the U.S. Census Bureau utilized extensive user consultation prior to enumeration in order to refine both long and short form census questionnaires. The short form consisted of 13 questions and was given to the entire population. The long form asked 45 questions and was given to a 20 percent sample. The long form included topics related to marital history, carpooling, residence, residential elevators, and energy usage. Unlike the 1980 Census, the new census eliminated questions regarding air conditioning, the number of bathrooms in a residence, and the type of heating equipment used. A vast advertising campaign was marketed to increase public awareness of the census via public television, radio, and print media. Like the previous census, the Census of 1990 made a special effort to enumerate groups that have historically been undercounted in previous censuses called "S-Night": individuals in homeless shelters, soup kitchens, bus and railway stations, and dormitories (enumerated separately in the 1980 Census on "M-Night"); and permanent residents in hotels and motels (enumerated separately in the 1980 Census on "T-Night"). Following legal issues filed in response to the 1980 Census regarding statistical readjustment of undercounted areas, the Census Bureau initiated a post-enumeration survey (PES), in which a contemporaneous survey of households would be conducted and compare to the census results from the official census. In a partial resolution of a 1989 lawsuit filed by New York plaintiffs, the U.S. Department of Commerce agreed to use the PES to produce population data that had been adjusted for the projected undercount and that said data would be judged against the unadjusted data by the Secretary of Commerce's Special Advisory Panel (SAP).
The Census of 1990 also introduced the U.S. to the Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing System (TIGER), which was developed by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Census Bureau. TIGER used computerized representations of various map features to geographically code addresses into appropriate census geographic areas. It also produced different maps required for census data collection and tabulation. Five years earlier, the Census Bureau became the first government agency to publish information on CD-ROM. For the 1990 Census, the bureau made detailed census data, which had previously been only available to organizations with large mainframe computers, accessible to any individual with a personal computer. Census data was also available in print, on computer tape, and on microfiche. Using two online service vendors, DIALOG and CompuServe, the Census Bureau also published select census data online.
As with previous censuses, the 1990 Census undercounted the national population, and again, the African-American population had an estimated net undercount rate that was significantly higher than the rate for other races. In July of 1991, the Secretary of Commerce announced that he did not find evidence in favor of using adjusted counts compelling—despite SAP's split vote on the issue—and chose to use unadjusted totals for the official census results. In response, the New York plaintiffs resumed the lawsuit against the Department of Commerce. A federal district court divided in favor of the DOC in April of 1993. The U.S. Court of Appeals, however, rejected the previous court ruling and ordered that the case be reheard by the federal district court. In March of 1996, the U.S. Supreme Court finally ruled in favor of the Secretary of Commerce's decision to use the unadjusted census date, but did not rule on the legality or constitutionality of the use of statistical adjustment in producing apportionment counts.

For the Census of 2000, the short form consisted of only seven questions, while the long form consisted of 52 questions and used for a 17 percent sample of the population. For the first time, race questions were not limited to a single category; rather, respondents were able to check multiple boxes. A new question related to grandparents as caregivers was also mandated by legislation passed in 1996. Disability questions were expanded to including hearing and vision impairments, as well as learning, memory, and concentration disabilities. The 2000 Census also eliminated questions related to children born, water sources, sewage disposal, and condominium status. In addition, the 2000 Census was the first in which the Internet was used as the principal medium for the dissemination of census information. Summary Files were available for download immediately upon release and individual tables could be viewed via American FactFinder, the Census Bureau's online database. Files were also available for purchase on CD-Rom and DVD.
Due to declining questionnaire mail-back rates, the U.S. Census Bureau marketed a $167 million national and local print, television, and public advertising campaign in 17 different languages. The campaign successfully brought the mail-back rate up to 67 percent. Additionally, respondents receiving the short form were given the option of responding via the Internet. Telephone questionnaire assistance centers available in 6 languages also took responses via the phone. Statistical sampling techniques were utilized in two ways: first, to alter the traditional 100 percent personal visit of non-responding households during the non-response follow-up (NRFU) process by instead following up on a smaller sample basis; second, the sampling of 750,000 housing units matched to housing unit questionnaires obtained from mail and telephone responses, as well as from personal visits. The goal of the latter was to develop adjustment factors for individuals estimated to have been missed or duplicated and to correct the census counts to produce one set of numbers. This "one-number census" would correct for net coverage errors called Integrated Coverage Measurement (ICM). Both of these measures were taken in an attempt to avoid repetition of the litigation costs generated by the 1980 Census and the 1990 Census. Despite these efforts, two lawsuits—one filed by the U.S. House of Representatives—were filed in February 1998 challenging the constitutionality and legality of the planned uses of sampling to produce apportionment counts. Both cases were decided in favor of the plaintiffs in federal district courts, but the U.S. Department of Commerce made appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court. Known as the U.S. Department of Commerce v. the U.S. House of Representatives, the Court ruled that the Census Bureau's plans to use statistical sampling for purposes of congressional apportionments violated the Census Act. The bureau revised its plan, stating that it would produce statistically adjusted data for non-apportionment uses of census data information, such as redistricting. However, in March of 2001, the Census Bureau recommended against the use of adjusted census data for redistricting due to accuracy concerns; the Secretary of Commerce determined that the unadjusted data would be released as the bureau's official redistricting data. The Director of the Census Bureau also rejected to the use of adjusted data for non-redistricting purposes in October of that same year.

Description
The Eighteenth United States Census records for Brevard County, Flagler County, Lake County, Marion County, Orange County, Osceola County, Seminole County, and Volusia County, Florida, for 1960. The census divides the population by gender, race ("white", "black", "Japanese", "Chinese", "Filipino", and "other"), and native-born vs. foreign-born. Those who are foreign born are further divided by country of origin. The census then lists the population categorized by age, military service, transportation use, primary and secondary school attendance, and college attendance. The census also collected information on labor and on unemployment.<br /><br />The Census of 1960 was the first to be mailed to respondents. The U.S. Post Office Department delivered census questionnaires to households, the head of household was required to complete the questionnaire, and an enumerator was to pick it up. The enumeration process was divided into two stages: first, select data for each person and dwelling unit was collected; and second, more detailed economic and social data was collected from a sample of households and dwelling units.

Description
Collection of United States Census population records for various counties in Central Florida from 1840 to 2000.
The Census Act of 1840 was signed into law on March 3, 1839 and later amended on February 26, 1840. This piece of legislation established a centralized census office during each enumeration. Congress designated the census questionnaire designs to the Secretary of State. However, each household received inquiries regarding "the pursuits, industry, education, and resources of the country" and included questions related to school attendance, literacy, and vocation.
In March of 1849, Congress pass legislation that established a census board consisting of the Secretary of State, the Attorney General, and the Postmaster General. The board was responsible for preparing and printing forms and schedules for enumeration related to population, mining, agriculture, commerce, manufacturing, education, etc. The 1850 Census also increased population inquiries to include every free person's name (as opposed to just the head of the household), as well as information on taxes, schools, crime, wages, estate values, etc.
The Census Act of 1850 authorized the U.S. Census of 1860 and stipulated that its provisions be adhered to for all future decennial censuses should no new legislation be passed by the first of the year of said census. In May of 1865, the U.S. Census Office was abolished and many superintending clerks were transferred to the General Land Office.
Although the 1870 Census was conducted under the provisions of the Census Act of 1850, a new act was passed on May 6, 1870. The new census legislation required two changes in procedures related to questionnaire return submission dates. Moreover, penalties for refusing to reply to inquires were expanded to apply to all questions and questionnaires. The questionnaires themselves had to be redesigned due to the end of the "slave questionnaire", as slavery had been formally abolished slavery nationwide via the Thirteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. This left five schedules for the census: General Population, Mortality, Agriculture, Products of Industry, and Social Statistics. In addition, the use of a Charles W. Seaton, a U.S. Census Office chief clerk and later superintendent, invited a rudimentary tallying machine that partially alleviated the difficulties of tallying and tabulating questionnaire responses. Finally, the new superintendent for the Ninth Census, General Francis A. Walker, introduced employment examinations to test the qualifications of applicants to the Census Office, allowing for increased efficiency in the process of collecting census data.
The newest act authorizing the Census of 1880 provided for supervision of enumeration by "supervisors of the census", selected exclusively for the collection of census data. All supervisors, as well as the superintendent, were to appointed by the U.S. President and approved by the Senate. Census enumerators were required to personally visit each household and family within his subdivision. The new census act also allowed for the collection of data related to the condition and operation of railroad corporations, incorporated express companies, and telegraph companies, as well as data related to the condition and operation of life, fire, and marine insurance companies. Corporations who refused to provide the census with "true and complete" answers were subject to fines. In addition, the census superintendent was required to collect and publish data on the population, industries and resources of the District of Alaska. Finally, the 1880 Census consisted of five schedules: Population, Mortality, Agriculture, Social Statistics, and Manufacturing.
The Census of 1890 was authorized by an act modeled after the 1880 enumeration and signed into law on March 1, 1889. The 1890 Census was supervised by 175 employees and enumerators were required to collect all information by personally visiting each household. The 1890 Census included essentially the same inquires from the 1880 Census, with some notable additions, such as questions about home and farm ownership and indebtedness; and the names, units, length of service, and residences of former Union soldiers and sailors, as well as the names of the widows of those who were no longer alive. Racial categorization was expanded to include "Japanese", along with "Chinese", "Negro", "mulatto", "quadroon", "octoroon", and "White". Herman Hollerith, a former employee of the U.S. Census Office, invited the electric tabulating system, which was widely used in the 1890 Census, allowing data to be processed faster and more efficiently. On October 3, 1893, Congress passed a law that transferred census-related work to the direction of the commissioner of labor. Congress passed another act on March 2, 1895, effectively abolishing the U.S. Census Office and transferring the remaining responsibilities to the Office of the Secretary of the Interior.
Congress limited the Census of 1900 to content related to population, mortality, agriculture, and manufacturing. Special census agents were authorized to collect statistics related to incidents of deafness, blindness, insanity, and juvenile delinquency; as well as data on religious bodies, utilities, mining, and transportation. The act authorizing the 1900 Census designated the enumeration of military personally to the U.S. Department of War and the U.S. Department of the Navy, while Indiana Territory was to be enumerated by the commissioner of Indian Affairs. Annexed in 1898, Hawaii was included in the census for the first time. In 1902, the U.S. Census Office was officially established as a permanent organization within the U.S. Department of the Interior. The office became the U.S. Census Bureau in 1903 and was transferred to the Department of Commerce and Labor.
The Census of 1910 was approved by legislation introduced in December of 1907 and enacted in July of 1909. The delay was the result of a disagreement over the appointment of enumerators. President Theodore Roosevelt supported the hiring of enumerators via the civil service system, while Congress supported enumerators as positions of patronage. President Roosevelt successfully won the debate. This census act also changed Census Day from the traditional date of June 1st to April 15th. Additional questions regarding the nationality and native language of foreign-born persons and their parents. Funds for the U.S. Census Bureau were also increased to expand the Census' permanent workforce and created several new full-time positions, including a geographer, a chief statistician, and an assistant director. The assistant director was to be appointed by the President and approved by the Senate, while all other census employees were hired on the basis of open, competitive examinations administered by the Civil Service Commission. Despite the use of automatic counting machinery, issues with the tabulation process persisted. Finally, with the United States' entrance into World War I in 1917, the U.S. Census Bureau became a source of even more valuable purpose: the Census was able to use population and economic data to report on the populations of draft-age men, as well as information regarding each state's industrial capabilities.
The Census of 1920 changed the date of Census Day from April 15th to January 1st, as requested by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which argued that farmers' memories and harvest information would be more accurate on this day. The U.S. Census Bureau was also authorized to hire additional employees at its headquarters in Washington, D.C. and to create a special field force to collect census data. The legislation authorizing the 1920 Census also allowed for a census of manufacturing to be conducted in 1921, and for such a census to be repeated every two years thereafter, as opposed to the traditional five-year census cycle. Furthermore, a census of agriculture and livestock was to be conducted in 1925 and to be repeated every ten years thereafter. In addition, penalties for those who refused to supply information or those who supplied false information were strengthened. As a result of these changes, census of population, manufacturing, and agriculture and livestock became increasingly independent of one another.
The "usual place of abode", the location where residents regularly slept, instead of where they worked or were visiting, became the new basis for enumeration in the 1920 Census. Those with no permanent or regular residence were listed as residents of the location that they were enumerated at. Enumeration related to institutional inmates and dependent, defective, and delinquent classes were also modified. Unlike the previous census, the 1920 Census did not have inquires related to unemployment, to Union or Confederate Army or Navy service, to the number of children born, or to the length of time that a couple had been married. The Census of 1920, however, did include four additional questions: one regarding year of naturalization and three regarding native languages. Issues also arose as a result of changes in international boundaries following World War I, particularly for persons declaring birth or parental birth in Austria-Hungary, Germany, Russia, or Turkey. In response, enumerators were required to ask said persons for their province, state, or region of birth. Enumerators were not required to ask individuals how to spell their names, nor were respondents required to provide proof of various pieces of information. Race was determined by the enumerator's impressions.
The act authorizing the 1930 Census was approved on June 18, 1929, allowing for a census of population, agriculture, irrigation, draining, distribution, unemployment, and mining. For the first time, specific questions for inquiry were left to the discretion of the Director of the Census. The Census encompassed each state, as well as the District of Columbia, Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. The Governors of Guam, American Samoa, the Virginia Islands, and the Panama Canal Zone were responsible for conducting censuses in their territory. Between the date that the census act was passed and Census Day (April 1st), the stock market crashed, plunging the entire country into the Great Depression. In response, there were public and academic requests for access to unemployment data collected in the 1930 Census; however, the U.S. Census Bureau was unable to meet this demands and the bureau was accused of present unreliable data. Congress required a special unemployment census for January 1931, which ultimately confirmed the severity of the economic crisis. Another unemployment census was conducted in 1937, as mandated by Congress. Because this special census was voluntary, it allowed the Census Bureau to experiment with statistical sampling. Only two percent of households received a special census questionnaire.
Congress authorized the 1940 Census in August 1939, providing the Director of the Census the additional authority to conduct a national census of housing in each state, the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Alaska. The housing census was conducted separately, though enumerators often collection housing information at the same time that they collected population information. The Census of 1940 was the first time that the U.S. Census Bureau used advanced statistical techniques. In particular, the census used probably sampling, which had only previously been tested in a trial census of unemployment conducted the Civil Works Administration during 1933-1934, in surveys of retail stores in the 1930s, and in an official sample survey of unemployment conducted amongst two percent of American households in 1937. Probability sampling allowed for the inclusion of additional demographic questions without increasing the burden on the collection process or on data processing. Moreover, sampling the U.S. Census Bureau was able to publish preliminary returns eight months before tabulations were completed. Likewise, the census increased its number of published tables, and also was able to complete data processing with higher quality and more efficiency. New census questions focused on employment, unemployment, internal migration, and incomes—reflecting on the concerns of the Great Depression, the country's housing stock, and the need for public housing programs.
The Census of 1950 encompassed every state, Alaska, Hawaii, American Samoa, the Panama Canal Zone, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and other small American territories. For the first time, the U.S. Census Bureau enumerate American living abroad to account for members of the U.S. Armed Forces, vessel crew members, and government employees residing in foreign countries. The U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. Department of State, the U.S. Maritime Administration, and several other federal agencies were responsible for distributing and collecting census questionnaires in a cooperative effort. Persons living abroad for reasons other than what is listed above had their census information reported by families or neighbors residing in the United States, but such data was criticized as unreliable and were not published in official statistics. The 1950 Census also included a new survey on residential financing collected separately on a sample basis from owners of owner-occupied properties, rental properties, and mortgage lenders. The accuracy of the new census was increased by improved enumerator training, the use of detailed street maps for enumerators, the publication of "Missed Person" forms in local newspapers, and the designation of a specific night to conduct a special enumeration of transient individuals. Moreover, a post-enumeration survey was conducted to further verify the accuracy of the original enumeration. A sample of approximately 3,500 small areas was compared to the original census data to identify households that may have been omitted initially. Likewise, a sample of approximately 22,000 households were re-interviewed to identify persons omitted in the original enumeration count. Though not used for the 1950 Census, the UNIVersal Automatic Computer I (UNIVAC I), the first non-military computer, was used to tabulate some of the statistics for the 1954 census of economy. In August of 1954, Congress codified various census statutes, such as the Fifteenth Census Act of 1929, authorizing the decennial census and other census.
The Census of 1960 was the first to be mailed to respondents. The U.S. Postal Service delivered census questionnaires to households, the head of household was required to complete the questionnaire, and an enumerator was to pick it up. The enumeration process was divided into two stages: first, select data for each person and dwelling unit was collected; and second, more detailed economic and social data was collected from a sample of households and dwelling units. The census questionnaires for the second stage were hand-delivered by enumerators as they were collecting data from the first stage. Households receiving the second census questionnaire were to complete the form and mail it to their local census office. Twenty-five percent of the population was giving additional sample questions. Because of the increased use of sampling, less populated areas were prone to sampling variation; however, this did not significantly decrease the usefulness of census statistics gathered. Moreover, increased use of sampling reduced data processing costs. Additional questions included in the 1960 Census were related to places of works and means of transportation to work. By 1960, nearly all census data was processed using computers. The U.S. Census Bureau used a Film Optical Sensing Device for Input to Computer (FOSDIC) for the first time, thus decreasing the amount of time and money required for data input.
In 1966, the U.S. Census Bureau sought suggestions from advisory committees and from the public, resulting in numerous proposals for additional inquiries related to the scope and structure of the census, as well as in public interest for the publication of additional census data. Researchers also concluded that the 1950 Census and the 1960 Census had undercounted certain segments of the population. Moreover, they noted a growing distrust of government activity and increased resistance to responding to the census. Simultaneously, both the public and private sectors expressed need for accurate information. The U.S. Census Bureau decreased its number of questions from 66 to 23 in an effort to simplify its products. A register for densely populated areas was also created to ensure that all housing units were accounted for. A Spanish-language questionnaire was also enclosed with census questionnaires in areas with a significant amount of Spanish-speaking households. Additionally, a question on Hispanic origins or descent was asked independently from race, but only on a five-percent sample. Only five questions were given to all individuals: relationship to household head, sex, race, age, and marital status. Additional questions were asked in smaller sample groups. This was also the first census in which respondents of urban areas were asked to mail their forms to the Census Bureau, rather than to hold questionnaires for enumerators.
Address Coding Guides were used to assign census geographic codes to questionnaires. Counts, a series of computer tape files, were an additional innovation used to increase the accuracy of census data. Count 1 consisted of complete count data for block groups and/or enumeration districts. Count 2 contained census tracts and minor civil/census county divisions, while Count 3 consisted of census blocks. Counts 4-6 provided sample census data for geographic areas of various population sizes. The Census Bureau also produced six Public Use Microdata Sample files, each of which contained complete information for a sample of approximately two million people. Finally, the Census Bureau developed the Summary Tape Processing Center Program, which was a group of organizations, both public and private, that processed census data from computer tapes.
For the 1990 Census, the U.S. Census Bureau utilized extensive user consultation prior to enumeration in order to refine both long and short form census questionnaires. The short form consisted of 13 questions and was given to the entire population. The long form asked 45 questions and was given to a 20 percent sample. The long form included topics related to marital history, carpooling, residence, residential elevators, and energy usage. Unlike the 1980 Census, the new census eliminated questions regarding air conditioning, the number of bathrooms in a residence, and the type of heating equipment used. A vast advertising campaign was marketed to increase public awareness of the census via public television, radio, and print media. Like the previous census, the Census of 1990 made a special effort to enumerate groups that have historically been undercounted in previous censuses called "S-Night": individuals in homeless shelters, soup kitchens, bus and railway stations, and dormitories (enumerated separately in the 1980 Census on "M-Night"); and permanent residents in hotels and motels (enumerated separately in the 1980 Census on "T-Night"). Following legal issues filed in response to the 1980 Census regarding statistical readjustment of undercounted areas, the Census Bureau initiated a post-enumeration survey (PES), in which a contemporaneous survey of households would be conducted and compare to the census results from the official census. In a partial resolution of a 1989 lawsuit filed by New York plaintiffs, the U.S. Department of Commerce agreed to use the PES to produce population data that had been adjusted for the projected undercount and that said data would be judged against the unadjusted data by the Secretary of Commerce's Special Advisory Panel (SAP).
The Census of 1990 also introduced the U.S. to the Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing System (TIGER), which was developed by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Census Bureau. TIGER used computerized representations of various map features to geographically code addresses into appropriate census geographic areas. It also produced different maps required for census data collection and tabulation. Five years earlier, the Census Bureau became the first government agency to publish information on CD-ROM. For the 1990 Census, the bureau made detailed census data, which had previously been only available to organizations with large mainframe computers, accessible to any individual with a personal computer. Census data was also available in print, on computer tape, and on microfiche. Using two online service vendors, DIALOG and CompuServe, the Census Bureau also published select census data online.
As with previous censuses, the 1990 Census undercounted the national population, and again, the African-American population had an estimated net undercount rate that was significantly higher than the rate for other races. In July of 1991, the Secretary of Commerce announced that he did not find evidence in favor of using adjusted counts compelling—despite SAP's split vote on the issue—and chose to use unadjusted totals for the official census results. In response, the New York plaintiffs resumed the lawsuit against the Department of Commerce. A federal district court divided in favor of the DOC in April of 1993. The U.S. Court of Appeals, however, rejected the previous court ruling and ordered that the case be reheard by the federal district court. In March of 1996, the U.S. Supreme Court finally ruled in favor of the Secretary of Commerce's decision to use the unadjusted census date, but did not rule on the legality or constitutionality of the use of statistical adjustment in producing apportionment counts.

For the Census of 2000, the short form consisted of only seven questions, while the long form consisted of 52 questions and used for a 17 percent sample of the population. For the first time, race questions were not limited to a single category; rather, respondents were able to check multiple boxes. A new question related to grandparents as caregivers was also mandated by legislation passed in 1996. Disability questions were expanded to including hearing and vision impairments, as well as learning, memory, and concentration disabilities. The 2000 Census also eliminated questions related to children born, water sources, sewage disposal, and condominium status. In addition, the 2000 Census was the first in which the Internet was used as the principal medium for the dissemination of census information. Summary Files were available for download immediately upon release and individual tables could be viewed via American FactFinder, the Census Bureau's online database. Files were also available for purchase on CD-Rom and DVD.
Due to declining questionnaire mail-back rates, the U.S. Census Bureau marketed a $167 million national and local print, television, and public advertising campaign in 17 different languages. The campaign successfully brought the mail-back rate up to 67 percent. Additionally, respondents receiving the short form were given the option of responding via the Internet. Telephone questionnaire assistance centers available in 6 languages also took responses via the phone. Statistical sampling techniques were utilized in two ways: first, to alter the traditional 100 percent personal visit of non-responding households during the non-response follow-up (NRFU) process by instead following up on a smaller sample basis; second, the sampling of 750,000 housing units matched to housing unit questionnaires obtained from mail and telephone responses, as well as from personal visits. The goal of the latter was to develop adjustment factors for individuals estimated to have been missed or duplicated and to correct the census counts to produce one set of numbers. This "one-number census" would correct for net coverage errors called Integrated Coverage Measurement (ICM). Both of these measures were taken in an attempt to avoid repetition of the litigation costs generated by the 1980 Census and the 1990 Census. Despite these efforts, two lawsuits—one filed by the U.S. House of Representatives—were filed in February 1998 challenging the constitutionality and legality of the planned uses of sampling to produce apportionment counts. Both cases were decided in favor of the plaintiffs in federal district courts, but the U.S. Department of Commerce made appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court. Known as the U.S. Department of Commerce v. the U.S. House of Representatives, the Court ruled that the Census Bureau's plans to use statistical sampling for purposes of congressional apportionments violated the Census Act. The bureau revised its plan, stating that it would produce statistically adjusted data for non-apportionment uses of census data information, such as redistricting. However, in March of 2001, the Census Bureau recommended against the use of adjusted census data for redistricting due to accuracy concerns; the Secretary of Commerce determined that the unadjusted data would be released as the bureau's official redistricting data. The Director of the Census Bureau also rejected to the use of adjusted data for non-redistricting purposes in October of that same year.

Description
The Nineteenth United States Census records for Brevard County, Flagler County, Lake County, Marion County, Orange County, Osceola County, Seminole County, and Volusia County, Florida, for 1970. The census divides the population by gender, race ("white," "black," "Spanish," and "other"), and native-born vs. foreign-born. Those who are foreign born are further divided by country of origin. The census then lists the population categorized by marital status, type of residence, military service, primary and secondary school attendance, and college attendance. The census also collected information on labor, on unemployment, on transportation, and on ownership of various types of technology.<br /><br />In 1966, the U.S. Census Bureau sought suggestions from advisory committees and from the public, resulting in numerous proposals for additional inquiries related to the scope and structure of the census, as well as in public interest for the publication of additional census data. Researchers also concluded that the 1950 Census and the 1960 Census had undercounted certain segments of the population. Moreover, they noted a growing distrust of government activity and increased resistance to responding to the census. Simultaneously, both the public and private sectors expressed need for accurate information. The U.S. Census Bureau decreased its number of questions from 66 to 23 in an effort to simplify its products. A register for densely populated areas was also created to ensure that all housing units were accounted for. A Spanish-language questionnaire was also enclosed with census questionnaires in areas with a significant amount of Spanish-speaking households. Additionally, a question on Hispanic origins or descent was asked independently from race, but only on a five-percent sample. Only five questions were given to all individuals: relationship to household head, sex, race, age, and marital status. Additional questions were asked in smaller sample groups. This was also the first census in which respondents of urban areas were asked to mail their forms to the Census Bureau, rather than to hold questionnaires for enumerators.<br /><br />Address Coding Guides were used to assign census geographic codes to questionnaires. Counts, a series of computer tape files, was an additional innovation used to increase the accuracy of census data. Count 1 consisted of complete count data for block groups and/or enumeration districts. Count 2 contained census tracts and minor civil/census county divisions, while Count 3 consisted of census blocks. Counts 4-6 provided sample census data for geographic areas of various population sizes. The Census Bureau also produced six Public Use Microdata Sample files, each of which contained complete information for a sample of approximately two million people. Finally, the Census Bureau developed the Summary Tape Processing Center Program, which was a group of organizations, both public and private, that processed census data from computer tapes.

Description
Collection of United States Census population records for various counties in Central Florida from 1840 to 2000.
The Census Act of 1840 was signed into law on March 3, 1839 and later amended on February 26, 1840. This piece of legislation established a centralized census office during each enumeration. Congress designated the census questionnaire designs to the Secretary of State. However, each household received inquiries regarding "the pursuits, industry, education, and resources of the country" and included questions related to school attendance, literacy, and vocation.
In March of 1849, Congress pass legislation that established a census board consisting of the Secretary of State, the Attorney General, and the Postmaster General. The board was responsible for preparing and printing forms and schedules for enumeration related to population, mining, agriculture, commerce, manufacturing, education, etc. The 1850 Census also increased population inquiries to include every free person's name (as opposed to just the head of the household), as well as information on taxes, schools, crime, wages, estate values, etc.
The Census Act of 1850 authorized the U.S. Census of 1860 and stipulated that its provisions be adhered to for all future decennial censuses should no new legislation be passed by the first of the year of said census. In May of 1865, the U.S. Census Office was abolished and many superintending clerks were transferred to the General Land Office.
Although the 1870 Census was conducted under the provisions of the Census Act of 1850, a new act was passed on May 6, 1870. The new census legislation required two changes in procedures related to questionnaire return submission dates. Moreover, penalties for refusing to reply to inquires were expanded to apply to all questions and questionnaires. The questionnaires themselves had to be redesigned due to the end of the "slave questionnaire", as slavery had been formally abolished slavery nationwide via the Thirteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. This left five schedules for the census: General Population, Mortality, Agriculture, Products of Industry, and Social Statistics. In addition, the use of a Charles W. Seaton, a U.S. Census Office chief clerk and later superintendent, invited a rudimentary tallying machine that partially alleviated the difficulties of tallying and tabulating questionnaire responses. Finally, the new superintendent for the Ninth Census, General Francis A. Walker, introduced employment examinations to test the qualifications of applicants to the Census Office, allowing for increased efficiency in the process of collecting census data.
The newest act authorizing the Census of 1880 provided for supervision of enumeration by "supervisors of the census", selected exclusively for the collection of census data. All supervisors, as well as the superintendent, were to appointed by the U.S. President and approved by the Senate. Census enumerators were required to personally visit each household and family within his subdivision. The new census act also allowed for the collection of data related to the condition and operation of railroad corporations, incorporated express companies, and telegraph companies, as well as data related to the condition and operation of life, fire, and marine insurance companies. Corporations who refused to provide the census with "true and complete" answers were subject to fines. In addition, the census superintendent was required to collect and publish data on the population, industries and resources of the District of Alaska. Finally, the 1880 Census consisted of five schedules: Population, Mortality, Agriculture, Social Statistics, and Manufacturing.
The Census of 1890 was authorized by an act modeled after the 1880 enumeration and signed into law on March 1, 1889. The 1890 Census was supervised by 175 employees and enumerators were required to collect all information by personally visiting each household. The 1890 Census included essentially the same inquires from the 1880 Census, with some notable additions, such as questions about home and farm ownership and indebtedness; and the names, units, length of service, and residences of former Union soldiers and sailors, as well as the names of the widows of those who were no longer alive. Racial categorization was expanded to include "Japanese", along with "Chinese", "Negro", "mulatto", "quadroon", "octoroon", and "White". Herman Hollerith, a former employee of the U.S. Census Office, invited the electric tabulating system, which was widely used in the 1890 Census, allowing data to be processed faster and more efficiently. On October 3, 1893, Congress passed a law that transferred census-related work to the direction of the commissioner of labor. Congress passed another act on March 2, 1895, effectively abolishing the U.S. Census Office and transferring the remaining responsibilities to the Office of the Secretary of the Interior.
Congress limited the Census of 1900 to content related to population, mortality, agriculture, and manufacturing. Special census agents were authorized to collect statistics related to incidents of deafness, blindness, insanity, and juvenile delinquency; as well as data on religious bodies, utilities, mining, and transportation. The act authorizing the 1900 Census designated the enumeration of military personally to the U.S. Department of War and the U.S. Department of the Navy, while Indiana Territory was to be enumerated by the commissioner of Indian Affairs. Annexed in 1898, Hawaii was included in the census for the first time. In 1902, the U.S. Census Office was officially established as a permanent organization within the U.S. Department of the Interior. The office became the U.S. Census Bureau in 1903 and was transferred to the Department of Commerce and Labor.
The Census of 1910 was approved by legislation introduced in December of 1907 and enacted in July of 1909. The delay was the result of a disagreement over the appointment of enumerators. President Theodore Roosevelt supported the hiring of enumerators via the civil service system, while Congress supported enumerators as positions of patronage. President Roosevelt successfully won the debate. This census act also changed Census Day from the traditional date of June 1st to April 15th. Additional questions regarding the nationality and native language of foreign-born persons and their parents. Funds for the U.S. Census Bureau were also increased to expand the Census' permanent workforce and created several new full-time positions, including a geographer, a chief statistician, and an assistant director. The assistant director was to be appointed by the President and approved by the Senate, while all other census employees were hired on the basis of open, competitive examinations administered by the Civil Service Commission. Despite the use of automatic counting machinery, issues with the tabulation process persisted. Finally, with the United States' entrance into World War I in 1917, the U.S. Census Bureau became a source of even more valuable purpose: the Census was able to use population and economic data to report on the populations of draft-age men, as well as information regarding each state's industrial capabilities.
The Census of 1920 changed the date of Census Day from April 15th to January 1st, as requested by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which argued that farmers' memories and harvest information would be more accurate on this day. The U.S. Census Bureau was also authorized to hire additional employees at its headquarters in Washington, D.C. and to create a special field force to collect census data. The legislation authorizing the 1920 Census also allowed for a census of manufacturing to be conducted in 1921, and for such a census to be repeated every two years thereafter, as opposed to the traditional five-year census cycle. Furthermore, a census of agriculture and livestock was to be conducted in 1925 and to be repeated every ten years thereafter. In addition, penalties for those who refused to supply information or those who supplied false information were strengthened. As a result of these changes, census of population, manufacturing, and agriculture and livestock became increasingly independent of one another.
The "usual place of abode", the location where residents regularly slept, instead of where they worked or were visiting, became the new basis for enumeration in the 1920 Census. Those with no permanent or regular residence were listed as residents of the location that they were enumerated at. Enumeration related to institutional inmates and dependent, defective, and delinquent classes were also modified. Unlike the previous census, the 1920 Census did not have inquires related to unemployment, to Union or Confederate Army or Navy service, to the number of children born, or to the length of time that a couple had been married. The Census of 1920, however, did include four additional questions: one regarding year of naturalization and three regarding native languages. Issues also arose as a result of changes in international boundaries following World War I, particularly for persons declaring birth or parental birth in Austria-Hungary, Germany, Russia, or Turkey. In response, enumerators were required to ask said persons for their province, state, or region of birth. Enumerators were not required to ask individuals how to spell their names, nor were respondents required to provide proof of various pieces of information. Race was determined by the enumerator's impressions.
The act authorizing the 1930 Census was approved on June 18, 1929, allowing for a census of population, agriculture, irrigation, draining, distribution, unemployment, and mining. For the first time, specific questions for inquiry were left to the discretion of the Director of the Census. The Census encompassed each state, as well as the District of Columbia, Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. The Governors of Guam, American Samoa, the Virginia Islands, and the Panama Canal Zone were responsible for conducting censuses in their territory. Between the date that the census act was passed and Census Day (April 1st), the stock market crashed, plunging the entire country into the Great Depression. In response, there were public and academic requests for access to unemployment data collected in the 1930 Census; however, the U.S. Census Bureau was unable to meet this demands and the bureau was accused of present unreliable data. Congress required a special unemployment census for January 1931, which ultimately confirmed the severity of the economic crisis. Another unemployment census was conducted in 1937, as mandated by Congress. Because this special census was voluntary, it allowed the Census Bureau to experiment with statistical sampling. Only two percent of households received a special census questionnaire.
Congress authorized the 1940 Census in August 1939, providing the Director of the Census the additional authority to conduct a national census of housing in each state, the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Alaska. The housing census was conducted separately, though enumerators often collection housing information at the same time that they collected population information. The Census of 1940 was the first time that the U.S. Census Bureau used advanced statistical techniques. In particular, the census used probably sampling, which had only previously been tested in a trial census of unemployment conducted the Civil Works Administration during 1933-1934, in surveys of retail stores in the 1930s, and in an official sample survey of unemployment conducted amongst two percent of American households in 1937. Probability sampling allowed for the inclusion of additional demographic questions without increasing the burden on the collection process or on data processing. Moreover, sampling the U.S. Census Bureau was able to publish preliminary returns eight months before tabulations were completed. Likewise, the census increased its number of published tables, and also was able to complete data processing with higher quality and more efficiency. New census questions focused on employment, unemployment, internal migration, and incomes—reflecting on the concerns of the Great Depression, the country's housing stock, and the need for public housing programs.
The Census of 1950 encompassed every state, Alaska, Hawaii, American Samoa, the Panama Canal Zone, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and other small American territories. For the first time, the U.S. Census Bureau enumerate American living abroad to account for members of the U.S. Armed Forces, vessel crew members, and government employees residing in foreign countries. The U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. Department of State, the U.S. Maritime Administration, and several other federal agencies were responsible for distributing and collecting census questionnaires in a cooperative effort. Persons living abroad for reasons other than what is listed above had their census information reported by families or neighbors residing in the United States, but such data was criticized as unreliable and were not published in official statistics. The 1950 Census also included a new survey on residential financing collected separately on a sample basis from owners of owner-occupied properties, rental properties, and mortgage lenders. The accuracy of the new census was increased by improved enumerator training, the use of detailed street maps for enumerators, the publication of "Missed Person" forms in local newspapers, and the designation of a specific night to conduct a special enumeration of transient individuals. Moreover, a post-enumeration survey was conducted to further verify the accuracy of the original enumeration. A sample of approximately 3,500 small areas was compared to the original census data to identify households that may have been omitted initially. Likewise, a sample of approximately 22,000 households were re-interviewed to identify persons omitted in the original enumeration count. Though not used for the 1950 Census, the UNIVersal Automatic Computer I (UNIVAC I), the first non-military computer, was used to tabulate some of the statistics for the 1954 census of economy. In August of 1954, Congress codified various census statutes, such as the Fifteenth Census Act of 1929, authorizing the decennial census and other census.
The Census of 1960 was the first to be mailed to respondents. The U.S. Postal Service delivered census questionnaires to households, the head of household was required to complete the questionnaire, and an enumerator was to pick it up. The enumeration process was divided into two stages: first, select data for each person and dwelling unit was collected; and second, more detailed economic and social data was collected from a sample of households and dwelling units. The census questionnaires for the second stage were hand-delivered by enumerators as they were collecting data from the first stage. Households receiving the second census questionnaire were to complete the form and mail it to their local census office. Twenty-five percent of the population was giving additional sample questions. Because of the increased use of sampling, less populated areas were prone to sampling variation; however, this did not significantly decrease the usefulness of census statistics gathered. Moreover, increased use of sampling reduced data processing costs. Additional questions included in the 1960 Census were related to places of works and means of transportation to work. By 1960, nearly all census data was processed using computers. The U.S. Census Bureau used a Film Optical Sensing Device for Input to Computer (FOSDIC) for the first time, thus decreasing the amount of time and money required for data input.
In 1966, the U.S. Census Bureau sought suggestions from advisory committees and from the public, resulting in numerous proposals for additional inquiries related to the scope and structure of the census, as well as in public interest for the publication of additional census data. Researchers also concluded that the 1950 Census and the 1960 Census had undercounted certain segments of the population. Moreover, they noted a growing distrust of government activity and increased resistance to responding to the census. Simultaneously, both the public and private sectors expressed need for accurate information. The U.S. Census Bureau decreased its number of questions from 66 to 23 in an effort to simplify its products. A register for densely populated areas was also created to ensure that all housing units were accounted for. A Spanish-language questionnaire was also enclosed with census questionnaires in areas with a significant amount of Spanish-speaking households. Additionally, a question on Hispanic origins or descent was asked independently from race, but only on a five-percent sample. Only five questions were given to all individuals: relationship to household head, sex, race, age, and marital status. Additional questions were asked in smaller sample groups. This was also the first census in which respondents of urban areas were asked to mail their forms to the Census Bureau, rather than to hold questionnaires for enumerators.
Address Coding Guides were used to assign census geographic codes to questionnaires. Counts, a series of computer tape files, were an additional innovation used to increase the accuracy of census data. Count 1 consisted of complete count data for block groups and/or enumeration districts. Count 2 contained census tracts and minor civil/census county divisions, while Count 3 consisted of census blocks. Counts 4-6 provided sample census data for geographic areas of various population sizes. The Census Bureau also produced six Public Use Microdata Sample files, each of which contained complete information for a sample of approximately two million people. Finally, the Census Bureau developed the Summary Tape Processing Center Program, which was a group of organizations, both public and private, that processed census data from computer tapes.
For the 1990 Census, the U.S. Census Bureau utilized extensive user consultation prior to enumeration in order to refine both long and short form census questionnaires. The short form consisted of 13 questions and was given to the entire population. The long form asked 45 questions and was given to a 20 percent sample. The long form included topics related to marital history, carpooling, residence, residential elevators, and energy usage. Unlike the 1980 Census, the new census eliminated questions regarding air conditioning, the number of bathrooms in a residence, and the type of heating equipment used. A vast advertising campaign was marketed to increase public awareness of the census via public television, radio, and print media. Like the previous census, the Census of 1990 made a special effort to enumerate groups that have historically been undercounted in previous censuses called "S-Night": individuals in homeless shelters, soup kitchens, bus and railway stations, and dormitories (enumerated separately in the 1980 Census on "M-Night"); and permanent residents in hotels and motels (enumerated separately in the 1980 Census on "T-Night"). Following legal issues filed in response to the 1980 Census regarding statistical readjustment of undercounted areas, the Census Bureau initiated a post-enumeration survey (PES), in which a contemporaneous survey of households would be conducted and compare to the census results from the official census. In a partial resolution of a 1989 lawsuit filed by New York plaintiffs, the U.S. Department of Commerce agreed to use the PES to produce population data that had been adjusted for the projected undercount and that said data would be judged against the unadjusted data by the Secretary of Commerce's Special Advisory Panel (SAP).
The Census of 1990 also introduced the U.S. to the Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing System (TIGER), which was developed by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Census Bureau. TIGER used computerized representations of various map features to geographically code addresses into appropriate census geographic areas. It also produced different maps required for census data collection and tabulation. Five years earlier, the Census Bureau became the first government agency to publish information on CD-ROM. For the 1990 Census, the bureau made detailed census data, which had previously been only available to organizations with large mainframe computers, accessible to any individual with a personal computer. Census data was also available in print, on computer tape, and on microfiche. Using two online service vendors, DIALOG and CompuServe, the Census Bureau also published select census data online.
As with previous censuses, the 1990 Census undercounted the national population, and again, the African-American population had an estimated net undercount rate that was significantly higher than the rate for other races. In July of 1991, the Secretary of Commerce announced that he did not find evidence in favor of using adjusted counts compelling—despite SAP's split vote on the issue—and chose to use unadjusted totals for the official census results. In response, the New York plaintiffs resumed the lawsuit against the Department of Commerce. A federal district court divided in favor of the DOC in April of 1993. The U.S. Court of Appeals, however, rejected the previous court ruling and ordered that the case be reheard by the federal district court. In March of 1996, the U.S. Supreme Court finally ruled in favor of the Secretary of Commerce's decision to use the unadjusted census date, but did not rule on the legality or constitutionality of the use of statistical adjustment in producing apportionment counts.

For the Census of 2000, the short form consisted of only seven questions, while the long form consisted of 52 questions and used for a 17 percent sample of the population. For the first time, race questions were not limited to a single category; rather, respondents were able to check multiple boxes. A new question related to grandparents as caregivers was also mandated by legislation passed in 1996. Disability questions were expanded to including hearing and vision impairments, as well as learning, memory, and concentration disabilities. The 2000 Census also eliminated questions related to children born, water sources, sewage disposal, and condominium status. In addition, the 2000 Census was the first in which the Internet was used as the principal medium for the dissemination of census information. Summary Files were available for download immediately upon release and individual tables could be viewed via American FactFinder, the Census Bureau's online database. Files were also available for purchase on CD-Rom and DVD.
Due to declining questionnaire mail-back rates, the U.S. Census Bureau marketed a $167 million national and local print, television, and public advertising campaign in 17 different languages. The campaign successfully brought the mail-back rate up to 67 percent. Additionally, respondents receiving the short form were given the option of responding via the Internet. Telephone questionnaire assistance centers available in 6 languages also took responses via the phone. Statistical sampling techniques were utilized in two ways: first, to alter the traditional 100 percent personal visit of non-responding households during the non-response follow-up (NRFU) process by instead following up on a smaller sample basis; second, the sampling of 750,000 housing units matched to housing unit questionnaires obtained from mail and telephone responses, as well as from personal visits. The goal of the latter was to develop adjustment factors for individuals estimated to have been missed or duplicated and to correct the census counts to produce one set of numbers. This "one-number census" would correct for net coverage errors called Integrated Coverage Measurement (ICM). Both of these measures were taken in an attempt to avoid repetition of the litigation costs generated by the 1980 Census and the 1990 Census. Despite these efforts, two lawsuits—one filed by the U.S. House of Representatives—were filed in February 1998 challenging the constitutionality and legality of the planned uses of sampling to produce apportionment counts. Both cases were decided in favor of the plaintiffs in federal district courts, but the U.S. Department of Commerce made appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court. Known as the U.S. Department of Commerce v. the U.S. House of Representatives, the Court ruled that the Census Bureau's plans to use statistical sampling for purposes of congressional apportionments violated the Census Act. The bureau revised its plan, stating that it would produce statistically adjusted data for non-apportionment uses of census data information, such as redistricting. However, in March of 2001, the Census Bureau recommended against the use of adjusted census data for redistricting due to accuracy concerns; the Secretary of Commerce determined that the unadjusted data would be released as the bureau's official redistricting data. The Director of the Census Bureau also rejected to the use of adjusted data for non-redistricting purposes in October of that same year.

Description
The Twentieth United States Census records for Brevard County, Flagler County, Lake County, Marion County, Orange County, Osceola County, Seminole County, and Volusia County, Florida for 1980. The census divides the population by gender, race ("white," "black," "American Indian, Eskimo, and Aleut," "Asian and Pacific Islander," "Spanish," "Mexican American," "Puerto Rican American," "Cuban American," "Other Spanish American," "Chinese American," "Japanese American," "Filipino American," "Korean American," "Asian Indian American," "Vietnamese American," "Hawaiian American," "Guamanian American," and "Samoan American"), and native-born vs. foreign-born. Those who are foreign born are further divided by country of origin. The census then lists the population categorized by marital status, type of residence, military service, primary and secondary school attendance, and college attendance. The census also collected information on labor, on unemployment, and on transportation.
Due to the success of the 1970 Census' mail-out/mail-back questionnaire, the program was expanded for the Census of 1980 to include approximately 95 percent of the population. The short-form questionnaire for this census contained seven questions related to population and 11 questions related to housing; whereas the long-form questionnaire included 26 questions on population and 10 questions on housing. A question regarding Spanish or Hispanic origin, separate from race inquires, was used in all questionnaires due to its success in a five-percent sample for the 1970 Census. Two surveys were included in the new census: the Components of Inventory Change Survey, making inquiries regarding the number and characteristics of housing units that either changed or remained the same between 1973 and 1980; and the Residential Finance Survey, which collected information on mortgages, shelter costs, housing characteristics, and owner characteristics. The U.S. Census Bureau's Census Publicity Office, established in 1978, directed an extensive public service advertising campaign focusing on public awareness of the census and encouraging individuals to participate. A special effort was made to enumerate groups that have historically been undercounted in previous censuses: "M-Night" focused on counting individuals in homeless shelters, soup kitchens, bus and railway stations, and dormitories; "T-Night" focused on the enumeration of hotels and motels with permanent residents.
The State Data Center Program was established to simplify public access to census data via computer tapes. The Census Bureau was to provide free copies of electronic and printed census information and products to each state; in return, the state agreed to develop a network of affiliated organizations, such as state executive departments, chambers of commerce, councils of government, university research departments, and libraries, by which census information would be housed for public access. All states had joined the program by the middle of the decade.
Despite various technological and procedural advances, the U.S. Census undercounted the national population, as it typically did in previous censuses. The African-American population had an estimated net undercount rate that was 3.7 percentage points higher than the rate for all other races combined. Various cities and states, beginning with the City of Detroit, filed suit against the U.S. Census Bureau, demanding that statistical adjustment be used to compensate for census estimates that had been omitted or improperly counted. In the Fall of 1980, the Bureau announced that it would not adjust its population totals because it was unable to determine the number and distribution of illegal aliens and other undercounted groups. A federal district court ruled in favor of the City of New York and the State of New York that same year, ordering the Census Bureau to correct its numbers. The U.S. Supreme Court stayed this ruling, as well as other similar rulings, in December of 1980, which allowed the Bureau to report its figures to the President unadjusted. In 1987, a federal appeals court ruled that the census figures should not be adjusted because the Census Bureau's decision not to adjust the figures was not arbitrary nor capricious.

Description
Chase & Company was established by brothers Sydney Octavius Chase and Joshua Coffin Chase in 1884. The company sold insurance and later invested in storage facilities and fertilizer sales. Chase & Company was known mainly for its agricultural interests and maintained a series of citrus groves throughout Central Florida. The company was based out of Sanford and became one of the city's largest employers into the early twentieth century. By 1886, the Chase brothers purchased several citrus groves to expand their business, including Isleworth Grove in Windermere, Florida. Isleworth Grove covered a total of 1,300 acres along the Butler Chain of Lakes. Between 1894 and 1895, Central Florida was hit by several freezes and most of the citrus crop was destroyed. Chase & Company did not grow citrus crops again until 1904 when Joshua came back from an extended stay in California. Between 1894 and 1900, different types of pesticide equipment was created, including equipment driven by steam, machines, and horses.Randall Chase joined in the family business soon after his brother, Sydney Chase, Jr., did in 1922. Randall became the president of Chase & Company from 1948-1965. The Isleworth property stayed in the Chase family until 1984 when Franklin Chase, the son of Sydney Chase, sold the property to famed golfer Arnold Palmer.

Description
An original letter of correspondence between brothers and business partners Joshua Coffin Chase and Sydney Octavius Chase. Topics discussed in the letter include Honorable J. G. Bright's rejection of claims for abatement of the Isleworth Grove Company and C. C. Teague's and the California Fruit Growers Exchange's experience making abatement claims. <br /><br />Chase & Company was established by brothers Sydney Octavius Chase and Joshua Coffin Chase in 1884. The company sold insurance and later invested in storage facilities and fertilizer sales. Chase & Company was known mainly for its agricultural interests and maintained a series of citrus groves throughout Central Florida. The company was based out of Sanford and became one of the city's largest employers into the early twentieth century. By 1886, the Chase brothers purchased several citrus groves to expand their business, including Isleworth Grove in Windermere, Florida. Isleworth Grove covered a total of 1,300 acres along the Butler Chain of Lakes. Between 1894 and 1895, Central Florida was hit by several freezes and most of the citrus crop was destroyed. Chase & Company did not grow citrus crops again until 1904 when Joshua came back from an extended stay in California. Between 1894 and 1900, different types of pesticide equipment was created, including equipment driven by steam, machines, and horses.Randall Chase joined in the family business soon after his brother, Sydney Chase, Jr., did in 1922. Randall became the president of Chase & Company from 1948-1965. The Isleworth property stayed in the Chase family until 1984 when Franklin Chase, the son of Sydney Chase, sold the property to famed golfer Arnold Palmer.

Sept 14 1923
Mr. S. O. Chase,
Sanford, Florida.
Dear Syd:
ISLEWORTH GROVE COMPANY: Note with regret copy of letter of the Honorable J G. Bright under date of September 4th, rejecting the claims for batement of Isleworth Grove Company. This man Weill may fail utterly to secure us any proper adjustment.
When in California, Frank Chase advised me that C. C. Teague, President of the California Fruit Growers Exchange, in connection with the Limoniere Lemon Company, failed to receive any consideration at Washington when the matter was handled by an expert. He finally took the matter out of the expert's hands, went to Washington himself, and secured an abatement on every point he made. The original claim by the Government was or over $100,000, and he finally settled the whole thing upon a payment of $1500.00.
It may be that we will have to follow a similar course after Weill has exhausted all of his efforts. This means quite a serious matter as Isleworth affairs are so closely interwoven with our personal returns.
Yours very truly,
JCC/s

Mr. G. T. Smith, Chairman,
Light and Water Committee,
City of Winter Garden, Florida.
Dear Sir:
Replying to your letter of January 27th in reference to utilizing the cypress trees on our Isleworth property. We appreciate your proposition, but do not feel inclined to cut any of this timber at the present time.
From the prices now ruling on lumber, it is beginning to look as if the longer you held onto trees the more money you would realize.
Yours very truly,

Chase & Company was established by brothers Sydney Octavius Chase and Joshua Coffin Chase in 1884. The company sold insurance and later invested in storage facilities and fertilizer sales. Chase & Company was known mainly for its agricultural interests and maintained a series of citrus groves throughout Central Florida. The company was based out of Sanford and became one of the city's largest employers into the early twentieth century. By 1886, the Chase brothers purchased several citrus groves to expand their business, including Isleworth Grove in Windermere, Florida. Isleworth Grove covered a total of 1,300 acres along the Butler Chain of Lakes. Between 1894 and 1895, Central Florida was hit by several freezes and most of the citrus crop was destroyed. Chase & Company did not grow citrus crops again until 1904 when Joshua came back from an extended stay in California. Between 1894 and 1900, different types of pesticide equipment was created, including equipment driven by steam, machines, and horses.Randall Chase joined in the family business soon after his brother, Sydney Chase, Jr., did in 1922. Randall became the president of Chase & Company from 1948-1965. The Isleworth property stayed in the Chase family until 1984 when Franklin Chase, the son of Sydney Chase, sold the property to famed golfer Arnold Palmer.

Transcript
Orlando, Florida,
June 5, 1930.
Mr. S. M. Crowell,
Windermere,
Florida.
Dear Mr. Crowell:
Mr. W. H. Reams, one of our former growers at Ocoee, is in the race for County Commissioner from District No. 3. He is top man in the first primary which is to be run over June 24th. The writer would appreciate it if you could consistently support Mr. Reams and also have any of the other registered voters do likewise. The writer would be very glad to give you and the other men the opportunity to take the time off to go to the polls for this purpose.
Yours very truly,
J. C. CHASE

Description
Civil government assignment completed by Sanford High School sophomore Rose Higgins in 1905. This particular assignment was created to test the student's civil government knowledge.<br /><br />Sanford High School was originally established at 301 West Seventh Street in Sanford, Florida, in 1902. The building was designed by W. G. Talley in the Romanesque revival style. Due to an increasing student population, a new school building was constructed on Sanford Avenue in 1911. The original building on Seventh Street served as Westside Grammar Elementary School, which was later renamed Sanford Grammar School. In 1984, the building was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places and converted into the Student Museum. The building reopened as the University of Central Florida's Public History Center in 2012. In 1927, a high school campus was designed by Elton J. Moughton in the Mediterranean revival style and constructed at 1700 French Avenue. The school reopened on January 10 and was renamed Seminole High School. In 1960, the high school moved to a new campus at 2701 Ridgewood Avenue and the former building on French Avenue was converted to Sanford Junior High School, which was later renamed Sanford Middle School. The old building was demolished in the summer of 1991 and replaced by a $5.77 million school complex. As of 2013, Seminole High School offers various Advanced Placement courses, the Academy for Health Careers, and the International Baccalaureate Programme for students.

Education--Florida
Description
A civil government assignment completed by Sanford High School eighth grader Verne Messenger in 1909. In 1948, Messenger married Lourine Vickery, who became the first woman to hold public office in Seminole County when she was appointed as Supervisor of Registration by Governor Fuller Warren (1905-1973).<br /><br />Sanford High School was originally established at 301 West Seventh Street in Sanford, Florida, in 1902. The building was designed by W. G. Talley in the Romanesque revival style. Due to an increasing student population, a new school building was constructed on Sanford Avenue in 1911. The original building on Seventh Street served as Westside Grammar Elementary School, which was later renamed Sanford Grammar School. In 1984, the building was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places and converted into the Student Museum. The building reopened as the University of Central Florida's Public History Center in 2012. In 1927, a high school campus was designed by Elton J. Moughton in the Mediterranean revival style and constructed at 1700 French Avenue. The school reopened on January 10 and was renamed Seminole High School. In 1960, the high school moved to a new campus at 2701 Ridgewood Avenue and the former building on French Avenue was converted to Sanford Junior High School, which was later renamed Sanford Middle School. The old building was demolished in the summer of 1991 and replaced by a $5.77 million school complex. As of 2013, Seminole High School offers various Advanced Placement courses, the Academy for Health Careers, and the International Baccalaureate Programme for students.

Transcript
Raffel
Uh, today is Saturday, June 16th, 2018. My name is Sara Raffel and I’m conducting an oral history with Debbie Simmons of Orlando, Florida. The interview is being conducted at Shelbie Press in Orlando, Florida. Uh, so, Debbie, could you please state your name?
Simmons
Yes. I’m Debbie Simmons.
Raffel
And what brought you to Orlando? And how long have you lived here?
Simmons
I moved to Orlando in 1978, uh, shortly after high school. And I, um—my father had moved here in the early 70s. Uh, we had moved from Miami up to Central Florida, but in a more rural area. My mother and that side of my family. And so when I turned 18, I didn’t want to stay in the rural, uh, community that I was living in. So Orlando seemed the logical choice to start a new life.
Raffel
And you’ve mentioned that, uh, your involvement in the first gay pride parade in Orlando in 1991 started your community activism. Can you describe what led up to that and why you first decided to march?
Simmons
Yes. Um, in 1990, uh, my partner and I bought a house. And we went through all of the machinations at that time that we had to do in order to buy a house together as a couple. Um, and we had two friends—close friends that invited us to attend the first gay pride parade in Orlando. Um, to say we were nervous is putting it mildly. But we did attend. And four of us—there was[sic] about 100 people at the parade total: participants and, uh, people observing. We were the last four in the parade. And by the time we get to the end of the parade route, what a sigh of relief. Uh, we didn’t see any Ku Klux Klan that year. So that really, uh, set the stage for me.
Um, I started getting really interested in the people that had put that together because I thought they were so courageous and I wanted to know them all. And I wanted to do whatever I could to make a change for our community so that it would make it easier for all of us to buy a house together. To start a business together. Uh, just to live our lives and not be discriminated against.
Um, so, uh, the next thing that happened is[sic] I started attending meetings at the Center. And, um, the editor of the Centerfold newspaper at the Center put a—a blurb in the newspaper and said—it said something to the effect, uh, “If you’re interested in starting a business guild—is it time for Orlando to do that—come to the Center on January 15th, 1992, and let’s talk about it.” So a dozen of us showed up at that meeting. And then, um, from there we started, uh, identifying—fortunately someone had brought bylaws, uh, not to the very first meeting, but from Atlanta and from Tampa. And so we utilized their bylaws to put our own together and to start the Metropolitan Business Association .
Um, things moved, it seems like, at a really fast pace from there. But then when I look back it took a long time. Back then we didn’t have social media. We didn’t have cell phones. So we had to do everything the old fashioned way, which was literally have one-on-one relationships. We spent a lot of time together. Got to know each other. Um, developed the organization. Started having monthly meetings. We met at places. Back then it was a lot different than it is now in that people were really nervous about going into any establishment that was identified with the gay community. Um, but we did have a lot of our meetings at Joy Metropolitan Community Church. We had some meetings at The Center. Um, and so we developed the board of directors and then, um, set our mission in place, filed papers with the state, uh, and, uh, identified the Metropolitan Business Association.
Raffel
Alright. And who were some of the people that were on that first board of directors that were instrumental in starting it?
Simmons
Well, this is where I get into trouble, like I said, with the names. Um, the first president was Keith Morrison. Uh, I was the vice president. Dorothy Coleman was the treasurer. Mary Brooks was the secretary. Uh, Karen Goode was the programs director. Vicky Meechum was the membership director. Dick Shaw was the, uh—became the vice president when I became the president in ’92. And, uh, Sam Singhouse, Sandy Fink, Tom Dyer. Uh, those were the really—the beginning folks. Um, Mary Brooks, who was the secretary for five years—she and I carried the MBA banner in the 1992 parade. Um, and in that parade there were seven of us from the MBA. Um, and Mike Sipoligo that had put the ad in the paper—that was the editor of Centerfold at The Center. Uh, he also walked with us with the banner. Um, Dorothy Coleman, uh, she is still living in Montverde, but she’s quite a bit older than me. She’s in her eighties. And she—I admired her so much when I met her. Her and, um, Dick Scholl. Dick has passed away. Uh, to me they were beacons of hope that—I hoped that by the time I got into my fifties, sixties, um, that I would s—you know, have the—the life that they had. And, uh, the desire still to make change.
And, um—so, from there we—let’s see. This is again where I get into trouble. [laughs] I gotta have some—something to help me go along. So after we walked in the parade, uh, let’s see—in the first, uh—in August of ’92, we signed a, uh, contract with the Radisson Hotel downtown at Lake Ivanhoe, uh, to hold our meetings for over five years. Our general meetings. And we did that so that we could overcome that hurdle of people being afraid to walk into a gay s—gay establishment. Um, we had those meetings—we structured those to help the community to come out, obviously. We helped, um, them to be more confident in their job. Um, as far as networking with a group of pro—professional people.
Simmons
We worked to develop educational materials for people to start their own businesses or to strengthen their businesses. We hosted, uh, political candidates’ forums. We did that early on. Uh, those were some of the more nerve-wracking and difficult meetings. Getting, uh, folks that were campaigning to become an official or those that were in elected o—elected office. Uh, we did, um, work to get the mayor of Orlando, Glenda Hood—at that time, uh—in ’94. She had become the mayor in ’92, so we are—we were kind of linked together for a number of years while she was the mayor until 2002. Um, we had approached her office, Tom Dyer specifically, who’s the—uh, he was the founder—or was the founder of Watermark and he’s still involved. Uh, but he doesn’t own it anymore. Um, he was instrumental in getting Glenda Hood, uh, to attend the—the first meeting. Um, and it was not an easy task because she did everything that she could—I shouldn’t be so critical, but looking back, it was a whole different time. And I understand now more than I did then what she was dealing with and why she didn’t want to attend our meeting. Um, they had every excuse. Her office and—and she did—for not coming to one of our meetings.
Finally, in ’94, she did come to the meeting. And it was explosive in a lot of ways because there was a big interest in our community, uh, so we had big attendance. And often times our candidates’ forums and our political events like that—we did have large attendance. Um, she was asked some very direct questions about supporting the gay community and non-discrimination. And she stood right at the podium and said, “I will not be a champion for your cause.” And when she said that it was—it—it—right behind that she said, “but I encourage you to get involved in your—in your local government. I encourage you to get on boards. I encourage you to run for elected office.” So it wasn’t—I heard both sides of what she was saying. A lot of people that were there that night—what they heard was, “I will not champion your cause.” And that—that’s why I say it was explosive, because it made a lot of people really energized. That okay—well, now we’re going to be on the steps of City Hall asking, “Why not?” Because we all pay taxes, too.
So that to me was, um—it was a milestone in what happened with—it was eye opening for the community. It was energizing. And it, um, made us realize that in the very beginning, when we talked about developing our mission and our bylaws, we had talked about using the—the terms, um, the MBA to be a political and economic force. And some people found that a little bit too much. To use the word “force” and to use “political” in there. “Economic”, well, that’s one thing. It’s the Metropolitan Business Association. It’s a business association like any other chamber, but the political side of it—some folks were pretty nervous about it. I was nervous about it, too. I mean, that’s, uh—that’s saying a lot.
Well, it turned out that that’s exactly what the MBA became in short order. Because we were the ones that were going to folks that were running for office or that were in office and saying, “Okay. What we’d like you to do is sign a pledge.” And it was the Human Rights Campaign pledge at the time. It was a couple of sentences that basically just said that they would implement into their policy and procedure that there would be no discrimination against the LGBT community. Gay community. I think it said “gay and lesbian” at that time. Um, and it was a great piece to ask them to sign because it was simple. It wasn’t asking for the world. It was just asking for equality. Uh, and that really, um—with Mayor Hood, uh, in ’94, there was no way she was going to sign that. She wouldn’t have signed anything like that.
But by the time—I’ll fast forward a little bit—by, um, I believe it was the ’98 election, uh, she came to our—our meeting. Um, we had scheduled a—a joint appearance with her and Orange County Chairman Linda Chapin at that time. Um, unfortunately, a police officer was shot in the line of duty that day, so Glenda [Hood] had to postpone. Um, so Linda [Chapin] came and we had a great meeting with Linda [Chapin]. Uh, and then shortly thereafter, we resched—rescheduled with Mayor Hood and she came. And I may be mixing this up a little bit, um, because I know she was—I think she had to postpone because of something else. And the night she was coming to the meeting was the night that the police officer was shot. And we were afraid she wasn’t going to show up, but she did, in fact, come. Um, and that night we asked her if she would sign the pledge of nondiscrimination. And, um, she said that she would. So, uh, I called her office—and, again, I might be mixing dates up a little bit. I have to look back at all the paperwork, which I’m going to give to you. Um, she did sign that pledge, but it—it didn’t happen that night. It happened right before the election in March. I had to call her office and pursue the signature. And had—their, uh—her office faxed it like the day before the election or the day of the election. So, it became very, very clear to us then that, okay, now we really do have that clout that we were looking for.
Simmons
And we were asked all the time, um, during that process—and then fast forwarding a little bit to 2000 when we were working with Human Relations Board of the City of Orlando and Mayor Hood’s office, uh, trying to get the, uh, city code amended to include sexual orientation. Simple thing again, like the pledge. Um, it was—I forget where I was even going with that. There I go [laughs].
Raffel
[laughs].
Simmons
It was—okay, let’s see. So we were getting her to sign the pledge, uh—she was, by 2000, telling us that she was supporting what we were doing, uh, even after we had fought for the rainbow flags to be hung in 1998. That was a huge spectacle and a fiasco. That was another thing that drew the community closer and closer together. Not just the gay community, but all of our allies. I mean, they came out from everywhere.
The same thing happened in 2000 to 2002 when we were holding the—or the downtown develop—or, uh, Human Relations Board was holding the meetings, um, to amend the—the policy. Mayor Hood was acting in public as if she was more supportive then she had been. Um, and then when we pulled the public records—which I had been chosen on the Orlando Anti-Discrimination Committee to be the one to pull the public records—um, found out that she and Commissioner Vargo—Vicky Vargo—were actually working with our adversaries. Um, and they were trying to pack the meetings. Um, and—and they succeeded in—in getting some people flown here and bussed here, um, with the Christian Coalition, um, uh, Family Research Council, Liberty Council, some of those folks, uh, to speak at the hearings when in fact they were telling all of us that you needed to be a resident of the City of Orlando in order to speak. If you had a business in Orlando you could speak. Um, and they were not telling the truth even on their appearance forms, which we found out, too, by pulling the public records. So we found out a lot about who was who and what was happening during those two-year—tho—that two-year period.
Simmons
So, fro—in the ‘90s, it was really us getting our legs under us, working with the community to build the community, create that strength, the unity, the relationships. Like I said, we didn’t have social media so we’re talking on the phone. We were meeting in person—a lot of meeting together face-to-face. Um, so a lot of us became friends in addition to working together to make the changes. Um, and in the early 2000s, after going through that two-year battle, um, we were stronger than ever but bruised after listening to all those terrible things that were said by the groups that the adversaries—that had been put together.
Um, so we dusted ourselves off and 2003 to 2004 and 5 we were trying to, um—the MBA, the Metropolitan Business Association wasn’t really organizing the parade. We were participants in the parade. Um, and the parade was like it is around the country: the—the pride event where people get together and are able to spend that time together really being out in the street marching for their rights, representing themselves. Um, and our parade had started to fall apart. And we were seeing in dwindle and dwindle for reasons that we weren’t quite sure why. The—the parade had gone through various groups that were organizing it. Um, and then by July of—you know, June/July of 2005, it had completely dissolved. And so we had talked about it over the years because we wanted to do everything that we could to support the parade, but we didn’t want to step on the organizers’ toes either because we didn’t want, you know, to crau—cause dissention. And we didn’t want to take it over ourselves. [laughs] We didn’t want that responsibility.
Simmons
Um, but by the time it fell apart, it was—it had been on our radar long enough, and been on the agenda, that the board of the Metropolitan Business Association finally said, “Okay. Well, let’s start a new organization.” And that was the way that Come Out with Pride was born. Um, we decided that, okay, June had passed. It had always been a discussion about how hot it is in June. It’s always raining. The weather was always brutal at the parade. So let’s, um—what can—what other date can we pick? And what can we do between now and the end of the year to actually do a parade?
And so we identified, um, October as National Coming Out Day on October 11th. Uh, National Gay and Lesbian History Month. Um, so it made perfect sense. We thought maybe the weather would be cooler, although that’s not proved to be true [laughs] since 2005. It seems like it’s been hot every year. And we’ve even dealt with a hurricane. So—but anyway, that was the whole thought process behind it. And from July to—to October, we put the event together. And we had it downtown. Um, we partnered with the students at UCF —with the Gay and Lesbian Bisexual Student Union. We thought that putting the business owners and professionals together with the university students, who always had an event at UCF, made perfect sense.
Um, and we partnered with the History Center—Orange County [Regional] History Center—so when the parade was over, everybody landed at the History Center. Uh, the History Center was great. They let us put a[sic], uh, exhibit inside. So all the students got together and the different organizations got together. Everybody made all of their displays and we put the displays up. Um, the first year we did the simple thing of developing a t-shirt that everybody could wear. A bright yellow shirt. Uh, we had “volunteer” on the back. So everybody that came to the event knew these are the people with Come Out with Pride. And that’s what we named it. Um, and the first year I believe, um—and again, I don’t—I don’t have those numbers with me, but we had, uh, several thousand in 2005. 2006, we did the same thing, um, and landed at the History Center. Uh, we did a brunch the first year in 2005 as well. And Mayor Dyer attended that—Buddy Dyer. Um, that was one of the first times—and Buddy, when he was running for office, came to our functions and actually asked for our vote. And was very open and accepting of our community. So—but when he spoke at the brunch that day, that was him really coming out himself to the community.
Uh, so by 2006, we did the same thing. Um, we had a larger turnout. 2006. We realized that the parade route needed to be enlarged. But more importantly than that, the History Center venue in the front of the History Center was not conducive for what we were trying to do. Um, so we talked with the city about moving the event to Lake Eola [Park]. Um, and believe it or not, even in 2007 that was not an easy process. Over the years, we had encountered problems with the City of Orlando, the City of Maitland when we were trying to have our first expo with the MBA in 1994. We got the excuse, ironically, from both, about double-booking. There was a double-booking problem with one of the first parades that the MBA didn’t have anything to do with, uh, organizing. That was Orlando Regional Pride Parade. Uh, they said they had double-booked. And so that year the parade shifted first to City Hall. Uh, one of the instrumental people on that, um, b—b—board was, uh, Phyllis Murphy and Patty Sheehan. Um, gosh. I should be able to again—to remember all—everybody’s names. Uh, there was a core group of people. Eileen Bell, Brian Hubert—De Hubert-Arbagast. He had a long last name. So, anyway—so they had a double-booking there. Couldn’t do it. Then we had that happen at the Maitland Civic Center when we tried to have our first Expo. So 2007 [road noise]—hello. 2007—sorry for the traffic. Uh, [clears throat] when we wanted to move to Lake Eola, it was still—there was still some of that—even though Buddy Dyer was the mayor—there was still some of that unease with the gay community. And there was definitely a—a pushback that they didn’t want us to have the even at Lake Eola. But it happened. Long story short, we went through the pro—a—all of the process. Um, of course, renting the space, paying all the various fees. And the fees are amazing.
Uh, I—I don’t know what’s changed. I’ve been retired now since 2000, uh, 8. But, um, it seemed as though for a number of years, uh, I did five, six, seven and eight—in eight, I was the logistics director. It seemed as though our group had to pay for the things that other people didn’t have to pay for. We had to do things that other groups weren’t required to do. Um, such as, uh, selling alcohol in the park. We had to pay for barricading the entire area to the cost of $10,000. Um, and so there was still some of that, you know, hangover. Um, now 2008 or 2007, I believe that there was, um, 70,000 people. Or that might have been eight. And the last few years there’s been over 150,000 people. And that’s according to the police department. That wasn’t our count. We always relied on whatever th—you know, they said because they’re the official law enforcement to determine the numbers so that we weren’t inflating the numbers. It became a wildly successful event. And then, to back up to 2005, when we were first forming Come Out With Pride, we had the meetings. Um, what we did was we took, uh, myself and two other MBA members with the GLBSU students, um, and we identified—i—it had always been something that I thought was really important that we maintain our [beeping] own history for our movement. Did you hear that?
Raffel
Yeah.
Simmons
[laughs] I don’t know what that was. Okay. Electronics gone wild. Um, but the—the history of our community. Because of the people that I knew when I got involved in 1991, the people that I met and got to know over the course of those 16, 17 years—um, and I—I knew that they had a history—like Dorothy Coleman and Dick Scholl being so much older than me—that there were those folks that had endured the Stonewall Riots in ’69. Uh, in ’78, when Harvey Milk was murdered in San Francisco, he had formed the first gay business guild there. Um, I knew that there was all of this history here, too, of people that had been part of the movement. And so I thought we needed to develop a history committee to maintain all of that history and to develop it and to get it from those people that were still alive.
Um, and, at—I mean we were part of—in 2005, from m—the MBA from ’92 to 2005, the amount of—of change that had happened over those 13 years, it was like a blur when I think about it now. Um, but since the MBA just celebrated its 25th year last year, and the board has asked me over time to, you know, put—put these materials together—I mentioned that I have 20 plastic cartons full of archives from all of the things that happened during the course of MBA in the 16 years that I was the president. Um, I think that this is a, uh—a monumental civil rights movement that is—the African American community’s Civil Rights struggle was huge and it—it’s still happening now for hundreds of years, whereas the gay community have remained closeted for, you know, years up until ’69 when Stonewall happened. That seems like—I know there were other things that happened, but that was a big benchmark. So in looking at—and I hea—I‘ve heard people talk about from ’69 to 2015, when the Supreme Court ruled gay marriage as legal, that it’s astounding that the gay community did what it did over the course of that short period of time. And I’ve heard it—heard people reference our activism and how we work together as a community to make those changes happen.
So I thought it was so critical that we maintain that history. That we make sure that we present it not only to get recognition to those people that did all that work and put their lives on the line, but for other movements that are obviously going to be necessary. When you look at the political environment that we’re currently in, um, I feel like our—the lessons that we learned in organizing our community are invaluable. And now, uh, with social media, with the internet, with all of these tools that we have with our, uh, immediate access with our phones—cameras, video, all of that—that coupled with the knowledge that the community has can really continue to make huge impact on oppression and equal rights for all.
Raffel
Can you describe, um, some of the sort of first portions of the history project, and maybe some of the people who were first involved in getting that formed?
Simmons
Sure. Um, I do have that, um, on the committee list here. Let’s see. That would have been, uh, 2005. Um, the first year I did chair, uh, the history subcommittee. Uh, Charlene Bell. Mary Brooks. Mary Brooks, who was the first secretary of the MBA, she got back involved. She, uh, was the secretary for five years. Um, but we had the meeting at her and her partner’s house. Phyllis Murphy. Phyllis and Mary actually met at an MBA meeting I believe in ’93. So they’ve been together for 25 years. Um, Ken Kasmerski. Uh, Patty Sheehan came to one or two of the first meetings. And, uh, Mallory Wells from UCF GLBSU . Um, we met at Mary and Phyllis’s house, um, and, um, all agreed about the importance of securing our history. Uh, and shortly after that, I asked Ken if he would be—if h—if would be the, um—the chair of the history project. And so, then he developed the history project from there. Added on, uh, more committee members and they developed, um—was it six or seven? I—‘cause in—in 2005, when we put all of those displays that were put together by everyone in the History Center, it was only for that one day. So that display then became part of the development of the actual—the timeline of the community, and um, developing and working with the community to gather up all of those archives.
And, uh, by 2007, we had—I can’t remember in ’06 if we had—we had—I think we had the history project back in the History Center if I recall correctly. And it had gotten larger. And I think it was in one of the—the rooms that was, um, a courtroom. It ha—actually had the—you know, the bench and whatnot. I think that’s the way that ’06 was. And then 2007, we actually had an air conditioned tent at Lake Eola. And the—they put the wall of remembrance of the folks that had passed. They had developed a—a timeline. Um, and they were great. I mean they—they worked that thing all day long. And people were in and out of that tent all day long looking at all those. And I believe that that [exhales] really, um, inspired people, too. Because there were people there—I went in and spent some time myself to cool off, um, and to say hello to everybody. But in watching, uh, what I saw was people that had no idea who some of these folks were. Had no idea about the timeline of our movement here.
Um, and then I saw others that were touched because they remembered Jimmy Brock , who was the pastor at Joy MCC , who had passed away. Um, and others. They—they remembered them, and so they were moved. And I—I could see the young people and I’ve th—I kept thinking about—I always did this whenever I went to Come Out With Pride—think about how I felt in 1991, when I went to that first parade. And that I was scared to death. I was just coming, you know, coming to—I had come out already, but just—I felt like coming into adulthood even though I was 31, you know? Um, starting to, uh—we hadn’t started Shelby Press yet. We started it in ’92. Uh, the MBA started—or not—or we started Shelby in ’93, but we started MBA in ’92. But I thought about—I—I still think about, you know, that it’s important that we inspire the young people to be confident in who they are and to accept themselves and to live their life to the fullest. And how better for them to get some insight into that then to see the timeline. To see those people that did that work. That made a difference in the lives of all of us—being able to live a healthier, more secure life.
Raffel
And do you have a favorite memory from your work with the history museum?
Simmons
[meowing] Um, and that was Louie giving his two cents.
Raffel
[laughs].
Simmons
Our kitty cat. Um, my favorite part of—of being involved with the beginning stages of the history project was seeing someone like Ken. Ken Kazmerski, who’s a little older than me, knowing his history and how he had worked with the students at UCF and Gay and Lesbian Bisexual Student Union. Um, and Phyllis and Mary. Phyllis Murphy and Mary Brooks. Um, knowing Mary and working with her side-by-side. Knowing Phyllis and her work on Orlando Regional Pride with the first few parades. Um, come back, uh,—it—together with the young people from UCF. To me, it wa—it—it’s—I—that’s what I’ve always thought. Um, and now there were a couple of people I will say that couldn’t see that. Couldn’t see that the—the wisdom of bringing the young people in. Because what are they—what are they going to contribute? And the majority of us though kept saying, “This is to encourage and to inspire future leaders. Because they need us and we need them.”
So, to me, that was—that—it was that and it was, um, knowing that—that they were serious about remembering. Remembering how we got to 2005. What the community had endured here and what happened. When I went to the March on Washington in 1993 and 2000—uh, especially 2000—there was[sic] even newspaper articles written in the [Orlando] Sentinel. Um, one of ‘em I had on my—had framed in my den for a while—um, said well, you know, [meowing] most people are staying home and why—why go to a March on Washington again in 2000? We—those of us that got together and went—knew that it was going to reenergize us. It was gonna recharge our batteries. Excuse me. Bye bye. [laughing] It was to—for us to be re-inspired and recharged.
So Come Out with Pride and the history project. And having a festival and a parade and bringing young and older and old, um, gay and straight and bi and trans and every ethnic—everybo—bringing everybody together that’s still alive to remember those that aren’t with us anymore. That’s what the history project did for me in 2007 with the tent. Walking around and looking and everything. That’s what I re—I thought about—is all those people, many of whom I knew. I knew them. And they were inspirational for me. And so, I was so happy that everybody that walked through there got to see that. Everybody experienced it differently based on their—their own life. Who they are and whatnot. But that’s—that was the—the—the real moving part I guess for me.
Raffel
And just to kind of go backwards a little bit, you mentioned I think briefly the first, uh, expo that the MBA held. Can you tell me a little bit more about what—sort of what led to that and the—and the difficulties you had finding space?
Simmons
Um, in, uh, 1994, at—at a—I believe it was a—it might have been ’93—Sandy Fink had come on to the board. She was a veterinarian. Um, and she had—let’s see. She was the networking chair in May of ’93. And then the membership director in December of ’93 to May of ’98. I remember when we were at a board meeting and, um, she and the networking and expo committee she put together—or I don’t think she put the committee together yet. She started talking about it. Um, and I didn’t know that our community was ready to have an expo of all of the—the businesses. I knew we had identified, uh, people that had businesses in the community. We had—we had identified some, uh, allies in the community. Not big corporations, but people that wanted to be part of our association. But when she said that we should do a business expo, uh, some of us were like, “Wow.” You know? “Are we really ready for that?”
And so, she was—put together a structure. Um, put together a committee, and—Louie [laughs]. By, um—by the time we got—we had several board meetings, talking about doing an expo. We were all on board. Uh, because they—they were ready to go. But where to have the event? So they identified the Maitland Civic Center on Lake Louie. And it was a—a great place. It still is. Um, and we, uh, signed the contract. We were ready to go. And it was—we’d already advertised. We had already printed our first, um, uh, uh—it became the buyers’ guide or the membership directory. Nut, uh, uh, an expo directory of, you know, who was going to be there and whatnot. Um, we had a map. And then we had everybody listed in there. Um, and Maitland Civic Center said that we couldn’t do it because they had a double booking.
So, um, Sandy went to civil court. And we were just talking about it leading up to the 25th anniversary of the MBA. And, uh, she reminded us, and reminded me especially, about her going to court. And she was nervous because she said, you know—she wasn’t really out, out. And there she was in civil court and she said it was the first time she’d uttered “gay and lesbian” in public. In a courtroom, no less. And she said the place gasped. She said she could feel it. Um, but because the contract was signed before the other contract—they were just pulling that double-booking thing to try to stop it. Once they—I guess some people decided, “Oh, it’s a gay and lesbian business association. No. We can’t do that in Maitland. We’re not gonna have that.” Um, but, we won. And so, we had our event.
Simmons
We had 89 vendors at that expo. And that was a—that was another big turning point for the professionals and the business centers in this community. Um, people started to recognize that we—back then, we didn’t have corporate support. So the small businesses—we were the backbone of the community. We were the ones that funded, um, things, um, uh, paid the membership dues, paid extra money, sponsored different things to make things happen. Um, and that we were the ones that were—were going to work together to even build it larger. To build our business structure larger. To encourage professionals that were contemplating starting their own business or practice to do so. And they did.
Um, uh, a number of people—now not going back that far, but, um, there are some that have—have formed, uh, in the last 20 years instead of the last 25 years. Uh, but Tom Dyer, um, at Watermark—he’s an attorney. And he was working for another practice. And it wasn’t—and don’t quote me on this, but it wasn’t long before Tom started his own law practice. Um, and I believe he started Watermark in, uh, ’94. And so, he—he—I heard him talk about that recently. About, you know, seeing what was happening in other big cities and newspapers and this and that. And he thought that Orlando could really do with having its own newspaper. Plus, he dealt with the—the political scene here, like I had said, with Glenda Hood. And knew that we weren’t getting the coverage. Um, we weren’t getting the representation that we should. Uh, a—something as simple as Mary Brooks, who I have mentioned a couple of times—that was the secretary. She w—worked at the Orlando Sentinel. She was a reporter. And at that time, we couldn’t even have our, uh, partners’ names listed in our obituaries. I mean it was just things like that. Everywhere we turned we had, um, discrimination.
So, yep. ’94, we had 89 vendors. And then we had six business expos. Um, and that kind of hand-in-hand worked with what we wound up doing with Come Out with Pride in having the festival in the park. The festival in the park is really a business expo. It’s where we b—we brought the politicians together with the non-profits with the large corporations and with the small business centers in the MBA. So we had developed that experience in order to put together that part of Come Out with Pride.
Raffel
And was the discrimination in the community—was that one of the reasons that, uh, you didn’t put LGBT or i—in the name of the business…
Simmons
Yes.
Raffel
…association?
Simmons
Yes. And we had talked a lot about it. Um, it wasn’t as if we were hiding who we were, but we were trying to again, um, protect those that wanted to come to our functions that were advet—advertised at the Radisson, The Metropolitan Business Association. Well, that’s not saying it’s a gay and lesbian function. Um, and there were a number of times that we had functions there that, um—I’ll never forget one night that we were having a function there that John Butler Booke, who is a—was—I don’t know if he’s still alive—a—a minister pastor in Apopka. Uh, he was one of the biggest voices against us in the ’98 controversy to hang the rainbow flags. Uh, he came to everything and anything. Well, they were having a separate event at the Radisson. And some people that were coming to our event were on that elevator with him. And he didn’t know who they were. They knew who he was. And I remember them coming in. And I can’t tell you even who it was specifically. But came in and said, “Oh, my gosh. You’re not going to believe who I just saw in the elevator. John Butler Booke is here.”
And so that was just reaffirmation for us, you know, that those five and a half years or so that we were at the Radisson, that was a period of time where we built strength and confidence and encouragement for the community to, you know, come out and to be more confident in being themselves. Being authentic. Uh, but when we, uh, talked about the name of the MBA—I believe we were at Metropolitan Community Church, and Sam Singhouse and Marcy Singhouse’s, uh, sister-law—Sam was instrumental in those very—in the very beginning. He owned the big bang club downtown Orlando. A—and he and Marcy were always there. And Sam Singhouse is Miss See—Miss Sammy. Everybody knows Miss Sammy. Um, and we were talking about the name. And Marcy was the one that actually wound up coming up with the Metropolitan Business Association. And, um, it –I mean everybody was like, “Yes, that’s it!” And so it stuck. And we never changed that. Um, the logo changed a few times over the years, but it was still, um, the Association. That’s what we were is all—you know, we—like I said in the beginning, uh, we—we developed relationships with one another that lasted for years and years. And sometimes lifetimes. Like Mary and Phyllis. Um, whether it be a—a—a marriage, which now we’re allowed to actually have marriage, um, or just a lifelong friendship.
Raffel
And what do you see as some of the maybe next steps or next big goals for organizations like the MBA and the LGBTQ History Museum?
Simmons Well, um, I’m really glad that the—the History Museum is continuing and evolving and growing. And, um, as far as the MBA goes, I know that they’re really working on, um, corporate diversity and making sure that with the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber, uh, that you have certification. And that—there’s that association. That group of large businesses that will buy from—recognize a gay and lesbian, trans—a tran—LGBTQ business as someone that they want to buy from. So they’re working on that. I know that they’re, uh, focused on, uh, transgender and gender equality. That’s very important.
Um, it’s—I know we—we’ve talked about this. Um, in 2015, when the Supreme Court ruled gay marriage legal , um, we had—that was in June of 2015—there was this sense of elation. Um, and I remember people saying—asking me and saying to me, “Do we really have a need for the Metropolitan Business Association and, um, the History Museum?” Of course. I mean, yeah. That’s gonna go on as long as people are alive to develop—to continue to develop all those archives. Um, but is it really needed anymore now that we have, you know, gay marriage? It’s legal. Well, it’s a lot more than that. It’s, um, uh, transgender. It’s gender equality. It’s—uh, you can still be fired from your job if you’re gay. Um, and we knew that there were—I knew, and I’m sure that most people knew, that there would be a backlash.
Um, but still there’s that sense of elation. I remember it was just three years ago, um, that everybody was—eh, I was going around getting every newspaper I could get. I was online looking at everything. Reading everything. Recording everything that I could during that. So amazing. And Prop 8 . And the fact that it was David Boies and—what’s his name? Theodore, uh—it’s gonna—and I—he was a con—he was the conservative that, um, represented Bush after the 2000 election. Olsen. Ted Olsen. Ted Olsen and David Boies. That they were the—the lawyers worked together. The conservative and the liberal. Um, and Prop 8 was overturned in California.
All these things happened. And people were elated. And, my gosh, for us to just have—I mean, a lot of terrible things have hap—had happened between 2015 and 2016, with these mass killings and shootings. Um, but when Pulse happened in 2016 in June, um, it was—I—I still have a hard time even articulating how I feel about it. Um, I couldn’t even talk about it because I knew the—the—the impact that it had had on—i—i—it squashed immediately that feeling of elation. Yes. It was a huge victory. But—that we—we achieved gay marriage. But, my gosh, what a gut punch. And have all of those people murdered. Um, regardless of the murderer’s motives, it was in a gay nightclub, um, owned by Barbara [Poma], a heterosexual. Um, to give Pulse and life to her brother’s life. Um, you know, it—I mean the way it—it—it’s just all come together, to me it’s a—it’s a—a reminder that the work is never finished. That it’s important.
I mean, I’ve been trying myself for the last ten years. I’ve been retired from my—my, uh, volunteer work and focused just on working for a living. Uh, sometimes I wonder how I worked 40 hours plus at work and 40-plus hours with the Metropolitan Business Association. Again, this goes to the age thing. I was telling you earlier, um. Uh, I’ve been trying to figure out what—what I can do now to participate. I don’t—I still haven’t been able to really—like I said, I can’t even articulate how I feel and it’s been two years since Pulse. Um, when the anniversary rolled around last year, um, it—very somber with everybody that I know. Um, and I thought this year would be, you know, a little bit—not easier—but a little bit better. But it’s not. Um, and I can’t even fathom what the families are going through.
Um, we have a—a young person that has come to work with us. Uh, she’s 26 and, um, she’s heterosexual. Not that that’s really relevant. But it is because she was impacted. And she asked me about posting on Shelby Press, uh, on Facebook—on our page—something about Pulse. And she had put together some—some language, um, and—just us all here trying to talk about it. And talk with her about it. It’s just, um—like I said, it’s hard to talk about it. Cause I just don’t even know what to say. And I—I feel like putting something on social media now like, uh, the thing now that the students from Parkland have made very clear. Um, we call BS on thoughts and prayers. Because that’s not—that’s not gonna do it.
So, yeah. It’s important. It’s important for all of the organizations. For the Metropolitan Business Association. For the History Museum. For Come out with Pride. For the Center. For, uh, Parents and, uh, Friends—PFLAG—uh, for GLBSU at UCF. For everybody to continue doing their work. And to never think, no matter what—what—how many steps we make forward, that we should ever let our guard down. And that we be out there representing our community and thinking about going back to what I had said earlier about our struggle for our civil rights. That the Constitution affords us those rights, as it affords every citizen of this country. Um, that our struggle is, and will continue to be, a model for the rest of the community to say, “Yes we can.” Love that about Barack Obama. Yes we can. Yes we will. And y—y—you might kick us down, but we’re gonna stand up again. And we will not let hate win. Ever.
Raffel
Thank you so much. If you had nothing to add. That’s all my questions.

<p><em>ORANGE COUNTY REGIONAL</em></p>
<p><em>HISTORY CENTER</em></p>
<p><em>Smart. Surprising. Fun.</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>I am Kevin Stapleton, and I will be your host for this episode titled, “Jim Crow Signs.”</p>
<p><em>Episode 42</em></p>
<p><em>Jim Crow Signs</em></p>
<p><em>WHITE</em></p>
<p><em>ONLY</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton</strong> <br />As Central Florida grew in the late 19<sup>th</sup> century, urban centers like Orlando and Sanford, as well as smaller communities in the region, became racially segregated. Segregation was initially and tacitly supported by most white residents, and soon became the official policy supported by the state government, cities, and local communities in Florida and the rest of the South. In this episode, we will examine the artifacts of racial segregation in Orlando.</p>
<p><em>WHITE ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><em>CIVIL RIGHTS</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Signs denoting separate places for white and black residents had its origins in the late 19<sup>th</sup> century, as a way to remind African Americans of their second-class status.</p>
<p><em>COLORED ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>The same governments and legislatures—that only decades later granted citizenship and equal rights to blacks after slavery and the [American] Civil War—now gave sanction to the strict separation of the races.</p>
<p><em>LINCOLN</em></p>
<p><em>WITH MALICE</em></p>
<p><em>TOWARD NONE</em></p>
<p><em>WITH CHARITY</em></p>
<p><em>FOR ALL.</em></p>
<p><em>“Equal Rights</em></p>
<p><em>Before the Law.</em></p>
<p><em>The “Jim Crow” Street Car</em></p>
<p><em>THE WAY IT WORKS IN </em>[illegible]</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>These signs were colloquially known as “Jim Crow Signs,” which transmitted their social and cultural meaning as spaces or places of inferior status and accommodation.</p>
<p>Dr. Stephen Caldwell Wright was born in Sanford, Florida, and came of age during the height of the Civil Rights Movement. He tells us what Jim Crow meant.</p>
<p><em>COLORED</em></p>
<p><strong>Wright<br /></strong>Uh, Jim Crow was a system of segregation, essentially. Um, separate, uh, economic, political, social systems within a community and throughout the nation, and, uh, it simply meant, um, supposedly, “separate but equal” after a while, but somehow the “equal” got lost [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Racial segregation came from a series of laws passed at the state and local level at the end of the 19<sup>th</sup> century. This cumulated with the 1896 U.S. Supreme Court decision <em>Plessy v. Ferguson</em>—that established that separate but equal facilities—was constitutional. Dr. Scot French, from the University of Central Florida, tells us about the philosophy behind these segregation laws.</p>
<p><em>COLORED</em></p>
<p><em>MEN</em></p>
<p><em>Orange County Courthouse 1950s Restroom Sign</em></p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>These signs are really a product of a system of racial control that replaced slavery. In the aftermath of, uh, Reconstruction, there was a lot of conflict, obviously, in the streets and in public places…</p>
<p><em>COLORED ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>And, uh, the politics of space became very personalized, and of course, this—this problem gets multiplied in the age of railroads when, uh, strangers are confronting one another in passenger cars, and there’s a real effort to control this population of free people, and to remind them of their place in society, and that place in the eyes of the powers that be, the—the white redeemers of the southern, uh, government and politics—their place was, uh, underneath the white man, that this was a white man’s country. After the <em>Plessy</em> decision, the Supreme Court decision which—well, made the—the—the principle of “separate but equal,” uh, the law of the land, there was en effort to begin to codify all of these practices in law to…</p>
<p><em>COLORED ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>Designate certain spaces as for colored and certain spaces as for white…</p>
<p><em>WHITE ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><em>CIVIL RIGHTS</em></p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>and the idea behind this was that it would keep black people and white people from brushing up against each other in ways that would lead to—to conflict.</p>
<p><em>“Equal Rights</em></p>
<p><em>Before the Law.</em></p>
<p><em>The “Jim Crow” Street Car</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>The word “Jim Crow” originally came from African-American activists in the middle of the 19<sup>th</sup> century. African Americans used the term to describe the ways in which they were treated differently from whites in public accommodations and services. From then on, the name stuck.</p>
<p><em>JIM CROW.</em></p>
<p>[illegible]</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Jim Crow was a blackface character, performed by white stage actors, during that time which portrayed blacks without human dignity or humanity through racist stereotypes. For African Americans, the system of racial segregation was part of that same dehumanizing legacy.</p>

<p><em>COLORED 6</em></p>
<p><em>COUNTY CLINIC 8</em></p>
<p><em>DISTRICT WELFARE BOARD</em></p>
<p><em>INTAKE OFFICE</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Even though according to the law and court decisions, separate was to be equal, it never was. “Separate” was only a way to reinforce difference. Dr. Wright tells us how he experienced segregation growing up in Central Florida.</p>
<p><strong>Wright<br /></strong>Usually, there was a black section, um, if I remember correctly, uh, usually a smaller area, and usually more crowded than the larger so-called “white section,” and the black sections, uh—what were then called the “colored sections,” were not nearly as well-kept, and—and—and—and the like. That would be true in terms of the bathrooms, as well. For instance, I remember…</p>
<p><em>COLORED</em></p>
<p><strong>Wright<br /></strong>Um, in many instances, um, men and women shared the same bathroom, while in the other section, you’d have women and then men, uh, facilities.</p>
<p>Uh, taking the bus was, um, notable, because it was understood that when you got on the bus you went to the back, and that was understood. There were no signs. The signs were the faces. The driver would, you know—knew that you were going to go to the back, and would give you a funny look if you sat too close up front, and that kind of thing. Not all of them, but some of them would.</p>
<p>If you went downtown, and you were standing at the counter, then you knew that everybody else was going to be waited on, served before you. So you could be standing there, but if a person who was white walked up, then they would reach around you and just continually serve all of them, until they had gone. Then, they would serve you.</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Although racial segregation translated to second-class citizenship for African Americans, it did not mean that residents of Central Florida stood idly by.</p>
<p><em>7UP</em></p>
<p><em>BOO-BOO’S BAR</em></p>
<p><em>TOWN& COUNTRY</em></p>
<p><em>Stone’s[?]</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>African Americans founded their own businesses, churches, civic associations, and even towns. Local communities usually had a segregated downtown district, where African American businesses and residents lived. In Sanford, there was Georgetown; in Winter Park, there was Hannibal Square; and Parramore, on the west side of Downtown Orlando.</p>
<p>African Americans even established entire incorporated towns, which elected black officials, such as Goldsboro, west of Sanford, and Eatonville, north of Orlando. Goldsboro eventually was absorbed into the City of Sanford in 1911, but Eatonville is one of the few black municipalities founded during this period that still exists. Dr. Julian [C.] Chambliss, from Rollins College, tells us about these black business districts that emerged out of racially segregated cities.</p>

<p><em>715 GOLDWYN AVE.</em></p>
<p><em>293-7320 • ORLANDO</em></p>
<p><strong>Chambliss<br /></strong>Well, segregation’s sort of unplanned, perhaps on some level, uh, benefit for an African-American community is to coalesce, uh, the [inaudible] community within the boundaries established by white society. As a result, what you see is a whole infrastructure created around servicing the black community—servicing—so black professionals, doctors, lawyers, teachers, um, black businesses that are serving black residents. All those are situated around the core of the black community. So if you look at a place like, for instance, Hannibal Square in Winter Park, Florida…</p>
<p>[illegible]</p>
<p><em>HOTEL</em></p>
<p>[illegible]</p>
<p><strong>Chambliss<br /></strong>You have everything that African Americans could possibly need within the confines of their segregated community, and this, of course, bolsters the economic standing of those, uh, business owners and those professionals. They are, in fact, servicing a captured audience, but that doesn’t mean that they’re not doing good service to the community.</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>By the 1950s, many public places did not admit blacks at all, and separate entrances and facilities were common in courthouses and other public buildings for access by African Americans.</p>
<p>Another Supreme Court decision in 1954, <em>Brown v. the Board of Education</em> [<em>of Topeka</em>], finally overturned the <em>Plessy</em> decision, and the Federal Government finally declared that “separate” was not only unequal, but also unconstitutional.</p>

<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Although by the 1950s, many Americans were recognizing that racial segregation was wrong, it was a long process for state and local communities to dismantle Jim Crow’s segregation. Dr. French explains.</p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>It was really not any secret. Everybody knew this. In many ways…</p>
<p><em>COLORED ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>The—that the—these signs were a part of a fiction of “separate but equal,” but for African Americans, of course, it was never equal. And, in fact, this was the basis for the great challenges to, uh…</p>
<p><em>WHITE ENTRANCE</em></p>
<p><em>CIVIL RIGHTS</em></p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>Segregated society. the great legal challenges was the “equal” was not equal under this system, and, uh, you began to see in the 20<sup>th</sup> century a chipping away at this edifice of—of Jim Crow law…</p>
<p><em>Segregation</em></p>
<p><em>IS</em></p>
<p><em>UnAmerican</em>[sic]</p>
<p><strong>French<br /></strong>Based on the fact that the facilities provided to African Americans were profoundly unequal or absent altogether. After <em>Brown v. Board of Education</em>, many civil rights advocates—activists white and black—decided to test the law, to—to take the idea that public spaces should be open, uh, as there were increasingly being made open. The courts began to open up public spaces, particularly in places like interstate travel, and so the waiting rooms at bus stations or railroad stations became desegregated, technically. However, in practice, states and localities continued to enforce segregation. They left those signs on the walls, and they continued to insist that persons of color sit in different waiting rooms—in waiting rooms designated for them.</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>In Central Florida, racially segregated schools were the norm until the 1960s, when Durrance Elementary was integrated under pressure from the Federal Government. And soon, other Orange County schools agreed to desegregate.</p>
<p>[illegible]</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Because of demonstrations by civil rights activists, community leaders, and students, local officials closed some public facilities, rather than allow them to be racially integrated. This public activism and protest against Jim Crow segregation…</p>

<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Was similar to events throughout the state and the rest of the South. It was through this activism, and because of the passing…</p>
<p><em>THE</em></p>
<p><em>Civil Rights</em></p>
<p><em>Act of 1964</em></p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>Of the 1964 Civil Rights Act by the U.S. Congress that outlawed these forms of racial segregation and relegated the Jim Crow signs to the dust bin of history.</p>
<p>Although the system of Jim Crow disappeared, its absence, while welcomed by all segments of society, left a vacuum in the once-thriving black downtowns, as Dr. Chambliss explains.</p>
<p><em>CAMPUS</em></p>
<p><em>THEATER</em></p>
<p><strong>Chambliss<br /></strong>In order to make sure African Americans had full sorta status as—as Americans, um, they had to break down the segregation system. As a consequence, the restrictions in terms of movement, and space, and regulations associated with zoning housing, uh, gave way, and with that, African Americans had the choice of where they wanted to live and how they wanted to live. This had a direct negative impact—impact on the strong cohesion that was created by that outward force constraining African Americans into their, uh, communities. So you see a spread—a spreading out, but you also, I think, see a kind of breaking down. The strong cohesion created by the outside force threatening the black community goes away. African Americans are able—‘cause, especially middle-class and upper-class African Americans, are able to move to places that are better, and this leaves the working-class African Americans…</p>

<p><em>TOWN& COUNTRY</em></p>
<p><em>Stone’s[?]</em></p>
<p><strong>Chambliss<br /></strong>Um, in that former space, but without the sort of economic and social connections that they had during segregation.</p>
<p><strong>Stapleton<br /></strong>As Dr. Chambliss mentioned, the legacy of Jim Crow is bittersweet. It is a legacy that residents of these communities confront today. Dr. Wright recalls for us his struggle with this legacy, and the conversation he had with his mentor and friend, the late Gwendolyn [Elizabeth] Brooks, the famous African-American poet.</p>
<p><strong>Wright<br /></strong>It’s interesting that, um, when I think of, um, integration, uh, and the whole business of…</p>

<p><strong>Wright<br /></strong>Uh, segregation supposedly going away, one of the—one of the great losses is, in fact, the—the black community—the black business community. Um, members of the black community are—are now affiliated with, uh, non-black institutions, and—and that’s the way it is. Reminds me of what Gwendolyn Brooks said to me when I said to her one day, “All of the black principals have moved out of the community,” and she said, “Oh.” Looked at me and she said, “I’m glad you stayed. I’m glad you stayed. They need to see you.”</p>
<p>[illegible]</p>
<p><strong>Wright<br /></strong><strong>“</strong>The children need to see you,” and that’s I think the great loss with—with the, um—with that. But when, um, integration advanced, as far as I’m concerned, uh…</p>

Description
A civil government assignment completed by a Sanford High School student in 1909. Sanford High School was originally established at 301 West Seventh Street in Sanford, Florida, in 1902. The building was designed by W. G. Talley in the Romanesque revival style. Due to an increasing student population, a new school building was constructed on Sanford Avenue in 1911. The original building on Seventh Street served as Westside Grammar Elementary School, which was later renamed Sanford Grammar School. In 1984, the building was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places and converted into the Student Museum. The building reopened as the University of Central Florida's Public History Center in 2012. In 1927, a high school campus was designed by Elton J. Moughton in the Mediterranean revival style and constructed at 1700 French Avenue. The school reopened on January 10 and was renamed Seminole High School. In 1960, the high school moved to a new campus at 2701 Ridgewood Avenue and the former building on French Avenue was converted to Sanford Junior High School, which was later renamed Sanford Middle School. The old building was demolished in the summer of 1991 and replaced by a $5.77 million school complex. As of 2013, Seminole High School offers various Advanced Placement courses, the Academy for Health Careers, and the International Baccalaureate Programme for students.

Altamonte To Vote On Sewer Bill
Altamonte Springs - Payment of $459,099.86 to Tuttle-White Construction Co., Orlando, and Lee Construction Co., Sandord, for work on this city's Keller Road Sewer Treatment Plant is expected to be approved by city commissioners at today's 4:30 p.m. meeting at city hall.
The two companies are jointly doing the work to expand the 1.2 million gallon a day capacity plant into a 7.5 million gallon a day capacity regional operation designed to serve most of southwest Seminole County and parts of Orange County.
Work on the $5.775 million plant is 72 per cent complete, according to city engineering consultants. The two firms have used only 55 per cent of the alloted time for expansion and engineers estimate the plant will be operational by September.

County Reviews SR 46A Plans
Before committing any money to a State Road 46A-Interstate 4 interchange feasibility study, Seminole County will investigate and review studies and plans for the proposed project.
In a work session Monday, the county commission assigned the planning staff to review the county comprehensive land use plan and the Orlando urban area transportation survey for future plans for the interchange and surrounding areas.
A State Department Transportation official, meeting with the county and local officials, said the department's long-range plans call for an interchange at the site by 1990.
Local developer Dan Rathel, a development consultant for Paulucci Enterprises for Duluth, Minn., last week requested the commission participate in funding a $6,000 feasibility study on the project.
Rathel is part owner of a 200-acre undeveloped industrial park at the intersection. He told the board the developers would donate a portion of the land needed for a right-of-way on the project.
W.T. Fish, a state transportation engineer, said he didn't have any estimate on what the interchange could cost.
Altamonte Springs Mayor Norman Floyd, also attending the work session, said priorities should be given to up-grading interchanges at the State Road 436 and 434 before building an interchange at SR 46A.

MAITLAND PLANS BIG THINGS FOR 1926
GREAT INCREASE IN BUILDING The following comparative table of building permits for Orlando, Win. ter Park and Maitland, issued in 1925 and 1926 will give some idea of the increase of business during the past year. These figures are good only for purposes of comparison, as the amounts entered in building permits fall far below the actual cost of construction. ORLANDO April, 1925, 393,930.00; April, 1926, to 19th only, 537,595.00. WINTER PARK January, February and March, 1925, 87,000.00; January, February and March, 1926, 468,000.00. MAITLAND Year, 1925, 85,225.00; To April 19, 1925, 23,175,00; To April 19, 1926, 54,050.00. AUTOTAG slog AN CONTEST ANNOUNCED Mr. L. L. Coudert, president of the Maitland Chamber of Commerce has offered a cash prize of 5.00 for the best slogan for the town of Mait
land. The following rules govern the
contest:
1. The slogan may be of one or
more words, but must contain not more than fifteen letters in all 2. All slogans must be in the hands of the secretary, E. T. Owen, on or before Tuesday, May . Already submitted are: Gate City. City of Wisdom. City of Kindness. Town of Lakes. Best of Towns. City of Orange. A Beauty Spot. A Growing City.

water struck in Maitland WELL After three weeks continuous drill. ing, water was struck in the Maitland municipal well on April 16, at a depth of 410 feet, with a flow of 299.86 gallons a minute. This is the full capacity of our pumping out. fit, and it is estimated that the well could furnish over 600 gallons a ute with a stronger pumping outfit. The water stands at 26 feet three inches and is lowered 15.53 inches under constant pumping, rising again to 28 feet in one minute after the pumping ceases. The drilling for the first 100 feet was rapid, there being sand for 45 feet, then a mixture of shell, gravel, mud and sand to a depth of 70 feet, after which all trace of sand was lost and there was pure gumbo mud. In the second stratum an interesting collection was found of shell, star fish, sharks teeth and other sea ob jects. At 96 feet rock was struck, first two feet of black rock, with a one foot cavity of water above the lime. stone stratum which has continued in varying degrees of hardness down to the full depth of the well. A fifteen inch pipe was driven down 105 feet 6 inches, entering the limestone and sealing off the first cavity as it contained surface water. Two other water pockets found in the limestone feed into the well aug. menting the main supply. Through the limestone there is no pipe neces: sary, the sides of the fifteen inch drill being formed by the rock itself. The water is soft, clear and taste. less, apparently free from mineral deposits. Samples have been sent to Tallahassee for analysis and testing, and it is expected that the full report will be ready before we go to press,
ped with modern machinery in time for next years citrus season. All residents and well-wishers of Maitand will realize the importance of this announcement, as the loss of the
ackinghouse would be a serious to our prosperity.
Mayor Outlines Plans of Council for Coming Year
Mayor E. A. Upmeyer, at the Municipal Reception, gave a resume of the work of the Council during the past year and outlined the proposed plan of work for the coming term. According to this plan the chief work of the Town in addition to regular routine work will fall under the fol. lowing heads: Completion of the initial paving project, including all streets for which the town bonded last year. Contracting for new paving on the special assessment plan, for which a number of petitions have been accepted. Institution of a program of side. walk construction. Completion of project. Installation of a system of street cleaning and garbage removal. Beautification of Lily Lake. Improvement of the central park. Proper upkeep of the cemetery, including the installation of a water system and a plan for perpetual up. Codification of the town ordinances and printing of same. Securing abstracts and perfecting title on all lands owned by the town. Construction of a new town hall. Organization of a volunteer fire department. This is an ambitious program, but considering what has been already accomplished and the personnel of the town officials, there is every reason to believe that it will be done and well done, provided every citizen gives his full support and assistance.

what makes A GOOD subDivision? Any land can be subdivided, in fact so can water, but there are cer. tain fundamental requirements for a GOOD subdivision, which in our limited space we can barely mention. These fundamental requirements should, however, be carefully considered by anyone considering invest. ment in a residential lot particularly. First there is location. Is the land suitable for the purpose? If it is to be a residential community it should be close enough to the business center to be accessible by good roads and sidewalks. It must be high and dry and not exposed to objectionable smoke, smells and noises. It must be fit to live in” Second there must be comprehensive plan for streets, park areas and properly located homesites. Every lot should be so planned as to be available for a home of beauty and comfort. Every lot should have a pleasant outlook on its neighbors. Third, to preserve this plan and perpetuate the desirability of the com: munity there must be restrictions wisely drawn and adequately administered. They must be written into the deeda covenant with the developer, your neighbors and yourself before you build your home, and not wished for afterward. Fourth, a subdivision must be ade

quately financed to ensure the car. rying out of the promises of the developer and to assure you of the future home your family has a right to expect. Your title must be good, and you must have a pride in saying, I live in Suchand-Such Heights, Soand So are the developers. If you are looking for a homesite, go to see them they will treat you right." Fifth, you should expect your modern good subdivision to have wide and properly paved streets, permament curbing, drainage and sidewalks, water and electricity available to every lot, preferable on the back lot lines, street lights and a complete system of beautifully landscaped parkways with abundant shade trees.
COUNCIL DISPOSES OF 540,000.00 waterworks bond issue
At the meeting of the Town Council on Thursday, April 15th, water. works bonds in the amount of 40, 000.00 were sold to the highest bid. der, Wright-Warlow Company of Orlando, Florida. It is understood that a very satisfactory price was ob. tained for these bonds, higher in fact than that obtained by many other Florida cities in the past few months.

Maitland LumberCo. Rebuilding on Large Scale
NEW RESIDENCES IN GREENWOOD GARDENS NEARING COMPLETION
Several new residences under con struction in Greenwood Gardens are nearing completion. L. L. Coudert, who is building a two story residence at the extreme north end of the town overlooking Lake Faith expects to oc. cupy his new home early in June. The bungalow now being built by R. A. Wheeler is nearly completed, and the house which is being remodeled by the Maitland Realty Company will be ready for occupancy in a short
. F. Parker also is building a residence on the Dixie Highway south of Lake Faith which will be finished during the summer.
Plans are being prepared for a number of other houses in Greenwood Gardens which will be ready for oc. cupancy in the fall.
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE MEETING
At the last meeting of the Chamber of Commerce there were twenty-six members present. The most impor. tant subject taken up at the meeting was the question of a new booklet for Maitland, the old one being entirely out of date. After considerable discussion as to the kind of booklet needed, the amount to be spent, etc., it was decided to appoint a commit. tee to go into the subject thoroughly and report at the next meeting as to what would be the best kind of booklet to have and the cost. J. H. Hill, E. A. Upmeyer and K. N. McPher. son were appointed on the committee.
J. H. Hill gave a report on the work being done by the Orange County Chamber of Commerce. The matter of the slogan contest was laid over to the next meeting in the absence of the chairman, Mr. Upmeyer. The committee hopes that more slo. gans will be submitted before that

MAITLAND NOW HAS GARBAGE DISPOSAL SYSTEM
The town authorities, realizing that the time has come when the disposal of garbage and other trash is a matter of serious consideration to the health of the community, have inaugurated a sytematic and thorough department of refuse collection. It will be nec. essary to charge a small fee for this service, but from a standpoint of convenience and sanitation to all house. holds and business houses the fee is well justified. A number of house. holders are already taking advantage of the service and it is hoped that many more will do so as it will be impossible to carry on an effective system of collection without the cooperation of a majority of the resi. dents and the future health of the town depends largely on this COUDERT appoINTED MUNICIPAL
ENGINEER
At a recent meeting of the Town Council, Louis L. Coudert was appointed and employed by the town as municipal engineer to lay out, design and supervise the construction of all paving and sidewalks now projected or to come up for consideration in the future.
All work entrusted to the J. B. McCrary Engineering Corp, of At lanta, under their contract, will be finished by them, Mr. Couderts appointment covering only new work now under consideration. The Mc. Crary company have proven them. selves entirely satisfactory to the town in all their work and the change was made only thru the desire to keep as much of the town capital at home as possible. Mr. Coudert has proven himself entirely fitted for the position in the work which he has already done for the town.
Mr. and Mrs. A. N. Pettis, who have made their home with Mrs. Bronson for the past two years, are now occupying Mr. E. R. Halls cot.
tage.
The Maitland Lumber Company is rebuilding on a much larger scale since the fire which destroyed its buildings on the evening of March 15. The newest building, an uptodate warehouse, was fortunately not destroyed and immediately after the fire a new lumber shed and a garage sufficient to house four trucks were constructed. Now plans have been completed for a shed 80x135, of twice the capacity of the former shed, and a much improved office building. Mr. Upmeyer, president and general man ager, feels that in the long rum the fire may prove an advantage as it makes it necessary for him to rebuild now and he is able to do so on a much larger scale than he felt justified in doing two years ago when he started with a business confined entirely to the handling of lumber. The busi. ness has now expanded to include sash and doors, roofing, brick, cement, plasterin fact everything that is needed for general construction, with the exception of paints which will be added as soon as the new buildings are complete. But while so many new lines are now included, the chief aim of the business, namely the handling of quality lumber and first class builders supplies, has remained the same as it was when Mr. Upmeyer first came to Maitland and started his lum. ber yard.
SCOUTS CAMP NEAR PALM SPRINGS
The first camping party of the summer participated in by the Boy Scout troop was on the Wekiwa River about two miles below Palm Springs The boys went out Friday afternoon and returned Saturday noon, having spent the time in swimming, boating and hiking. The party consisted of Scout Master Forrest B. Stone, ert Kilbourn, Teddy Brocksmith, Lloyd Haines, Bill Tucker, Bill Deuel, Ray Ponder, Jack Lee, and John Law.

Such, we believe, are the men who are now in office in Maitland. The Mayor and four of the councilmen have been connected with the town government for a considerable time and have shown themselves honest, resourceful and enthusiastic in the promotion of the best interests of the town. They have been instrumental in putting across two bond issues and have worked earnestly to carry the work to completion. J. G. Friedland, the only new man on the council, has taken hold of the street and sanitary department with energy and deter. mination, having already installed a trash collection service, and he is planning many innovations and im provements. Never before have municipal affairs been in better condition than they are today.
But let us remember that the test of these men lies in their continued and constant service and that in truth their temptations are many."

We wonder if our coun. cilmen even are entirely free from this tendency which we ordinary citi. zens feel coming upon us as the summer rains approach. We admit that there may be perfectly legitimate excuses for delavs, which delays are in reality wholly unnecessary. Was it necessary to wait so long for a town attorney to be appointed so that pave ing petition approved months ago might be prepared for publication? And now that we have a town attor. ney and a town engineer will these matters be rushed through or will there be further delays? A member of the Council told us the other day that the water system would not be in operation for three or four months yet. Why? Winter Park has extended its mains to the Maitland line. Are we going to let people in the south end of Maitland tap on to them to obtain water?

Council Votes to Erect Municipal Building
WRECKING OF PRESENT TOWN HALL CLOSES CHAPTER IN LOCAL HISTORY
Plans for a municipal building to provide engine house and jail on the first floor with a council chamber above were accepted by the Council at their last meeting and the building committee authorized to commence work immediately. The building is to be placed at the back of the lot where the old town hall stood, leaving space opposite the park for a more pretentious building to be put up later on. Plans offered by Charles B. War terhouse for a complete city hall, em bodying all the features of an uptodate municipal building, were rejected as being too ambitious an undertaking at the present time.
With the completion of the wrecko ing of the present town hall, which is already well under way, and the final cleaning up of the town proper. ty, the last of the land marks will be gone and all the old buildings will be cleared away.
Most prominent among these was the old hall, built in the early eighties and shown on the first plat of Mait. land filed in 1885. George Horatio Packwood, who built this hall and filed the plat, on leaving Maitland bought forty acres of land where the Tampa Bay Hotel now stands, includ ing a quarter mile along the Bay Shore, for around 1,200.00. This he platted, naming the streets the same as those in the Maitland plat, and he now occupies a mansion on the Bay Shore Boulevard on a sixty foot lot for which he refused 200,000.00 last winter. This hall was built with two stores on the first floor, one of which was used as a railroad station when the railroad first went through, a hall for a skating rink, with a stage on the second floor, and rooms above for the first Masonic Lodge in this section of Florida, where the leading citizens of Orlando, Sanford and Lake County came together. The building was later bought by S. B. Hill and the lower floor fitted up for a packing house for the Florida Citrus Exchange,
of which Mr. Hill was the first president. After the Exchange left it was used as a private packing house and the hall upstairs was used for com: munity entertainments until the pres: ent school house provided a more at: tractive gathering place. Next to the old hall stood the Adams packing house, built by Frank Adams and used by him as a pack. ing house and fertilizer warehouse, and further on was a building, used for similar purposes, which originally stood on the north side of Horatio Avenue, where it formed a ware. house between the railroad and the store building of E. Turner, recently
moved away and used for the past
few years as a rooming house for the American Fruit Growers. The store, occupied until its demoli• tion last fall, by J. A. Brown, was used first as a store and later housed the first library in Maitland, established by Mrs. L. F. Dommerich. At one time it was owned by Mr. S. Mills Ely, brother of Miss Mary C. Ely, who remodeled it and rented it out for small business enterprises, after which it was bought by S. B. Hill, who occupied it as a store until he sold out to J. A. Brown. The passing of this group of build. ings, built when Maitland was young and which have survived beyond the period of their usefulness marks the beginning of a new era of growth and prosperity in Maitland.
TOWN PARK BEING IMPROVED
The town authorities have sown a cover crop through the parks around Lily Lake, north of the Library and the central park. This will give a green covering through the summer and will be turmed under later, providing necessary humus for the soil. A number of trees and shrubs have been planted in the central park and further improvements will be made as soon as water is available.
Harry R. Brewer left Thursday for Guilford, Conn., after spending the winter here at the home of Forrest B. Stone.
ACTION ON BUILDING CODE IS
At the last meeting of the Council, F. T. Marsh was appointed building, plumbing and electrical inspector. This action was taken on the recome mendation of the Zoning Commission. Mr. Marsh, who has held similar po sitions in the north, has been of great assistance in drawing up the building code recently adopted by the Council. This code as well as the plumbing code is substantially the same as the Orlando code, except for a few modifications due to local conditions. At the last meeting it was also voted to adopt rules and regulations governo ing electrical wiring and construction which have been adopted by Winter Park, with the exception that the license fee shall be 25.00 and the bond 1,000.00. Building and plumbing fees have also been established and anyone intending to build should in form himself on these regulations and make application to the building in spector in sufficient time to prevent delay in starting his building.
GREENWOOD GARDEN NOTES
Mr. and Mrs. L. L. Coudert and family moved last week into their new home in Greenwood Gardens.
Mr. A. B. Rowland, who has been associated with the Maitland Realty Company as accountant for the past three months, has bought the old Parker house in Greenwood Gardens. The house has been moved onto a lot on Maitland Avenue, and is benig remodeled. Mr. Rowland hopes to have the work completed so that he will be able to occupy the house when Mrs. Rowland and the children reach Maitland the latter part of this month. Mrs. Rowland will remain in West. field, New Jersey until the close of school.
Mr. Calvin Hill has bought a lot in Greenwood Gardens on the corner of Maitland Avenue and Marion Way, where he expects to build a residence in the near future.

AGE AND BEAUTY
With the removal of the old buildings around the station we bid fare. well to the village period of our his tory and enter into a new phase, typified by the paving of streets, the installation of water, the beautification of parks, and, we trust, the develop. ment of an individual and suitable style of architecture. These old buildings, well constructed, carefully built, in their day objects of pride to builders and owners alike, have been for many years blots on the beauty of our town. This was so not only because they have been allowed to fall into dilapidation, but because they were not originally suit. ed to their surroundings. In some countries buildings increase in beauty as they blend into their settings and become a part of the beauty of the scenery. But in Florida there has been until lately no typical style of architecture. In the old days builders brought from New England and other parts of the north the style of architecture to which they were accustomed but which was entirely unsuited to Southern conditions of cli. mate and scenery.
Now, however, we need not make these mistakes. A style of architecture is growing up, beautiful in itself, substantial and breathing the spirit of the Southland. Can we not, as we

rebuild our town, strive to have all the construction, whether of residence, business or public buildings harmoni. ous, fitting and beautiful, so that our town may conform in architecture to the high standard set by its founders in laying out shady streets and conserving and emphasizing the beauties already here, and thus become the true beauty spot of central Florida?

AN INTRODUCTION
This is an introduction to a series of articles which, it is hoped, will prove of general interest to the read. ers of this newspaper.
I have thought that, to those who are not acquainted with the business and conduct of banks and banking, a series of short talks with this subject will be welcomed as a means of bring: ing home to you the widespread serve ice that almost any bank offers to its depositors, and give you some idea of the tremendous scope and widespread activities of present day banking.
We are all more or less familiar with the general idea of a bank, or that side of it with which we come in contact when we make a deposit, cash a check, or negotiate a loan. How n know of the many interesting , nga at go on behind the cage? When a check on sonic other bank is deposited where does it go, what does it go through, and how d es it get to its destination? Where loes the bank get the new money they all - try to have, whence comes all the silver and gold, where does all the dirty and mutilated currency go, and what becomes of it
All of the above and many other interesting things will be explained in this column, and it is hoped that the explanation of the varied services and internal workings of a bank will bring this bank and its customers to a closer understanding, and foster a mutual friendship, understanding and trust, all of which are necessary in order that this institution can grow and develop with the Town of Maitland, and render to the town the service to which it is entitled, but which cannot be given without the full cooperation of all.
BANK OF MAITLAND A Local Bank for Local People
LOCAL ITEMS Mr. and Mrs. E. D. Milliman and daughters moved on Monday from the residence of Miss Stella Waterhouse to the Richmond residence, where they will be through the summer.

Mrs. E. C. Pipkin, of Savannah, Ga, who has been spending a few days with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Bennett, left last week for Georgetown, S. C., to spend the summer.
URING the World War there were certain enterprises whose Securities took a phenomenal jump in value because of the great demand for their product.

Building and Loan Association for Maitland
Plans to Join Winter Park B. L.
Plans for establishing a branch of the winter Park Building and Loan Association in Maitland were formulated at the last meeting of the Chamber of Commerce when Dr. A. A. Kent, secretary of the Association, spoke to the members. Dr. Kent explained the aims and methods of build. ing and loan associations and told of the splendid showing of the Winter Park Association, which starting two
years ago with an authorized stock of
50,000.00 has recently increased it to 500,000.00 and is now applying for a further increase which will double the present capital.
Dr. Kent outlined a plan whereby the winter Park Building and Loan Association will extend its activities to include the Maitland district. There are already a number of stockholders of the Association among Maitland people and the Association has been generous in making loans on Maitland property. Under the new arrange. ment, the Association guarantees to loan on Maitland property to the full amount of the stock taken out by Maitland people. The collection of these stock subscriptions will be made through the Bank of Maitland and the funds held there. Maitland will be represented on the Board of Direct tors and the appraisal committee.
This proposition received the approval of the meeting and a commit. tee, consisting of D. G. Spain, A. B. Rowland and E. A. Upmeyer, was appointed to arrange a program of education and to organize a drive among the people of Maitland for the purpose of obtaining stock subscrip. tions.
Special edition advertising is all right, but dont forget that persistent regular advertising keeps your busi. ness always before the publicthey cant forget you then.

“MY TOWN CANT BE TOO GOOD FOR ME
By WIBCHAFFEE
(For nearly three years the Chaffee jingles have appeared in the advertis ing of The Big Green Barn garage and they have been a source of enjoyment to all. His present contribution published below can not be classed as a jingle, however. In our opinion it is not only his masterpiece, but a bit of verse that is outstanding in current poetry.)
My Town cant be too good for me, Nor I too big or good for it; Though small in size My Town may Id have it big in Push" and "Grit.”
My Town must meet emergencies
With dauntless courage, vim and Pep"
Though progress is not bought with
My Town must not get out of step.”
My Town must tackle every taskGo forward alwaysneer back down. Neath foreign suns though I may bask, Id think with pride of this, My Town.
My Town, of course, is good enough, No matter how my fortunes swell Nor yet how fortune may rebuff. My Towns deafamers I would quell
And yet, down deep within my heart I know My Town improved could be: To help improve Ill do my partMy Town cant be too good for me

Foremost among the needs of a town is the building of homes, and fortunate is the town which is ade. quately provided with the facilities for promoting activity along this line. Maitland is well supplied with come panies providing the necessary labor and materials, but until recently means of financing have been uncer tain and difficult.
Small towns, as a rule, suller a great disadvantage in this question of finance. congregate in cities where business can be carried on a large scale. This is true even of the building and loan associations, which are generally con ceded to be the greatest factor in encouraging thrift and home building And even though some small building and loan associations have been quite successful, the power of these associa tions lies in their intrinsic soundness. which is only assured when they have a large field for their operations. Consequently a small town is deprived of the benefits of a strong local building and loan association and such asso. ciations in nearby cities usually give preference to city property in placing loans. -

THE MATLAND NEWS
gives us the opportunity to participate in all the benefits of membership in a strong, established association and also to enjoy the privileges obtainable in a local organization. Maitland people may make their stock payments and payments of interest and dues here at the local bank and aside from the convenience to patrons of the B. and L the money will be kept in the town. All money realized from stock subscribed here will be loaned out on Maitland property as the demand requires, although the amount available to home builders is not limited to this amount. A local member on the appraisal committee will ensure fair treatment in valuing property. Later it is anticipated that the community will be adequately represented on the directorate of the association.
One of the strongest features of this arrangement is the saving pos. sibilities. Every dollar you put into the B. and L. will earn % from the day you put it in until the day you draw it out Your dollar stays in Maitland and is used to develop your home town. Although it is in use every day you can get it anytime you want it by just bringing in your pass bookand you can make deposits weekly, monthly, or in any way you want to and in any amount from a dollar up.

The banks of today render to the general public a much greater and a more diversified service than is gen: erally realized, and more than any other organization or series of organi zations, do they give the people the service which is demanded of them. A bank, as it is organized under the law (exclusive of private banks), is a stock corporation, and as such its main function is to make money for its stockholders. As with any other business a bank depends on the public for its existence, and in order to get a great revolume of business it must offer a great variety of attractions which will appeal to every. one. In giving this constantly expending service the original object of a bank, that of making money for the stockholder, is more or less lost, and a bank today is practically a public institution. Below are some of the many things your bank can do for you: It provides a safe place for you to keep your money, both savings and checking deposits, and a burglarproof vault for your valuables. It is a clearing house for checks on other banks. It furnishes, at a nominal cost, travellers checks for your safety and conveience. Its trust department will handle your estate, and do it much better than an ordinary executor. It provides foreign exchange facilio ties, which you will find most convenient should the occasion arise. It will lend you money if it is able and you are deserving of a line of credit. The above are just a few of the many services which lack of space prohibit explaining, but your bank will do almost anything it can to help you, and will give you good advice on any matter its experience will war. rant. Never hesitate to consult your banker, because he is ready to help you at any time, and is always glad to do what he can.

THE MAITLAND NEWS
This fabled hero of Sherwood Forest is said to have taken from the rich to give to the poor, Certainly we know that he and his band of merry woodsmen were sworn to the purpose of freedom, justice and happiness. Driven by tyranny from their honest pursuits and taking refuge in the Kings forest, they lived by hook and crook, playing no small part in the restoration of a just and rightful monarch.
Happily, our government is not subject to the abuses that obtained in England in the time of Robin Hood. No longer is a mans family subject to the indignities of feudal landlords, Now every man may own his home and feel safe in the principle that a mans home is his castle.
A nations prosperity and independence is in almost direct ratio to the percentage of home ownership. Any enterprise that encourages and facilitates home building and ownership is a direct bulwark of democracy.
Building and loan associations are doing a powerful work to strengthen Americas family life. Funds cannot be invested in a more worthy, safer or better paying enterprise.

CourSC. -
NOTICE J. H. Bennett is the agent for the Florida Public Service Company in this vicinity. Any trouble on the line or any lamps burned out should be reported to him and the matter will receive prompt attention.
ALVORD L. STONE WINS PRIZE Dr. Alvord L. Stone, upon his graduation from The Jefferson Medi. cal College of Philadelphia, June 4th, 1926, was awarded the Henry M. Phillips prize of seventy-five dollars. This prize is awarded upon the recommendation of the Professors of Surgery to the graduate in their opin. ion most worthy of recognition, and together with a similar prize awarded by the Professor of Medicine, was the highest prize given in a class numbering one hundred forty-four members. Dr. Stone was born and and has lived all his life in Maitland. After four very successful years at Rollins College, he graduated with the B. S. degree. The following fall he entered Jefferson Medical College of Philadelphia where he has been for the last four years. At the close of his Junior year he married Ruth Waldron and came to Florida on his wedding trip, return. ing to Philadelphia in the fall. For the next two years Dr. Stone will take his intern work in the Episcopal Hospital, the largest and finest hospital in Philadelphia, and he and Mrs. Stone will live at 322 W. Huntingdon street. EPISCOPAL RECTORY TO BE MADE OVER Plans are being made for the remodeling of the rectory of the Epis copal Church in Maitland as it will be occupied next year by Right Rev. Wing, Bishop Coadjutor of the Dio. cese of South Florida, and his family. The house will be thoroughly reno. wated, and many changes made both inside and out. Bishop and Mrs. Wing will make Maitland their permanent home. The church is also to be repaired this summer. A new roof will be put on and the church will be painted. Rev. R. P. Cobb will hold services as usual next winter.
The paving of the east side of the double boulevard of Maitland Avenue from George street north to Lake Maitland, and of East Robinhood Drive, Gamewell Avenue and Marion Way through the first section of Greenwood Gardens, the master suburban development now being put on the market by the Maitland Realty Company, is scheduled to start with in the next few weeks.
The necessary legal proceedings preparatory to the issuance of ten year assessment bonds under the act of 1923 are now being completed and contracts for the paving work will be let by the Town of Maitland with in a few days.
All streets in Greenwood Gardens are to be paved twenty-four feet wide of Finley Methodtype, except Maitland Avenue, which will be paved with brick. Twenty-four inch concrete curb and gutter is to be used, thereby assuring ample drainage facilities as well as making a much more substantial and better appearing street.
Storm drainage will be taken care of by ample storm sewers placed in the street right-of-way before the paving is put down, a main sewer will run the full length of Maitland Avenue, discharging the drainage water into Lake Sybelia on the south and Lake Faith on the north.
Sidewalks four feet wide, of con crete, constructed upon the specifica tions of the municipal engineer will be put in place on both sides of each street simultaneously with the paving.
On all sixty foot streets such as East Robinhood Drive the sidewalks will be placed on the property line thereby leaving a parkway fourteen feet wide on either side of the paving. This parkway will be levelled and sodded with grass and set with live oak trees for shade purposes in terplanted with hibiscus, dwarf or namental palms and other ornamental plants.

CONGRATULATIONS TO HERALD
The Maitland News vishes to congratulate the Winter Park Herald on the success of the special edition got ten out last week. The splendid layout and the promptness in publication show an attention to detail and care in compilation that do great credit to the paper. The people of Maitland appreciate the fine way in the Maitland section was handed. -- GROWTH IN MAITLAND
On reading the article in the Herald on New Building in Maitlandduring the past year, we have been thinking back over the past tweleve months and find that we can count up over twenty houses in addition to those mentioned in the article, which to our own knowledge have been erected in Maitland during that period. This may look small to cities whose building permits run into the hundreds, but when we consider that it is about a twenty percent increase in the number of residences in the town we feel that Maitland is show. ing a very satisfactory gowth. When we come to consider the number of permanent business buildings that have gone up in the town this last year, we find that it is an increase of two hundred percent over the permanent buildings here one year ago.
buted to the Maitland Library are: McAllisters Grove by Marion Hill. Red and Black by Grace Richmond. Shavings by Joseph E. Lincoln. Two Shall be Born by Marie Conway Oemler. Tetherstones by Edith M. Dell. Dawn by Eleanor H. Porter. The librarian will be glad to receive lists of books which patrons are willing to donate and check those which the library needs. While the Association purchases a number of new books every year it is impossible to place all the desirable books on the shelves and it is a great help if frineds will donate such books as they

CURRENCY-YESTERDAY AND TODAY
Currency is probably the most familiar form of cerdit in existence day, and its origin is of great interest
The earliest record of the issuance of bank notes gives their origin as about 1670, but in a vastly different form than that of today. The first bank notes were simply issued by goldsmiths to people who had left money in their custody, and these notes bore the name of a definite payee. The following is a specimen of one of the early notes.
Nov. 28, 1684.
I promise to pay untoye Rt. honble ye Lord North & Gray, or bearer ninety pounds on demand. For Mr. FRANCIS CHILD & Myself JNO ROGERS. It seems that the right to issue such notes as above was never questioned until their use became so wide. spread that the state was forced to step in to protect the interest of society at large. Then this right to issue notes was restricted to a select number of persons of well-known character, generally, but not always, incorporated as a bank. In our country today national banks have the right to issue notes of their own, but must first protect the notes by depositing Liberty Bonds or other suitable security with the Treasury department. Then the notes are printed in the government print. ing office, and countresigned by the President and Cashier of the issuing bank. Such notes are accepted by the public as readily as direct government obligations. All government notes and federal reserve notes are secured by gold or silver bullion which is held in the national treasury in Washington. Any person who holds a gold certificate can demand of the treasury department gold coin in exchange. Thus we find that gold and silver, principally gold form the basis of all national wealth. without this gold and silver held in reserve, our currency would be worth nothing more than the governments guarantee, but the tremendous wealth in actual gold which is held as a reserve behind these notes makes them just as good as the bullion itself, be cause the reserve is never touched unless an equal amount of paper money is first cancelled and destroyed,
Grass and //eeds
IYo; you noticed how the grass grows this kind of weather? Look at the sand-filled brick pavements in some of the residential sub
urbs you know. Do you see how the the grass grows between the bricks?
It is expensive to keep such a street neat and even heavy traffic will not keep the grass down this season of the year?
That's why we are using a rock base asphalt type of pavement in GREENWOOD GARDENS. There won't be any cracks for weeds and grass to grow in.
And we are not letting any grass grow under our feet" either. The city is paving all the streets in the first section this summer. (See reso. lutions published herein.)
If you ever expect to own a nice home you should investigate Greenwood Gardens now. Several of our June Brides are still available at prices that cant be duplicated later.
Don't let any grass grow under YOUR feet

Final Action Taken By the Council For the Completion of the City Waterworks
MISS JENNILLE HAILE AND HUGH McMillan Wed
On Monday afternoon at five oclock, the wedding of Miss Jennille Haile and Mr. Hugh McMillan was solemnized at the home of the brides sister, Mrs. Kenneth McPherson. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. E. D. Visor, Pastor of the Maitland Presbyterian Church, in the presence of the immediate family.
The bride was attired in a gown of taupe chiffon with a pink straw hat and carried a bouquet of liliesof-thevalley. Miss Lois Haile, who attend. ed the bride, wore a gown of grey georgette and carried pink roses. Mr. Harold Haile acted as groomsman. Mrs. Rogers played the wedding march and Mr. McPherson and Mrs. Lull sang.
The bride, who is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. F. Haile, well known residents of Maitland, has been teaching for the past few years in Gastonia, N. C. where Mr. Mc. Millan is engaged in the automobile business.
After the ceremony the young couple departed immediately on a wedding trip and will make their home in Gastonia.
COUNCIL MAKES TRIP TO DELAND
Members of the council and other city officials and prominent citizens of Maitland motored over to DeLand Sunday to inspect the working of two types of pump now in operation by the city of DeLand and a third pumping outfit just being installed. The engineers of the plants operated both outfits for our benefit and explained the construction, mechanism and operation of each, the advantages and disadvantages, so that the committee could get an idea and understanding of their respective merits as a basis for making a selection of the type of outfit most suitable and desirable for Maitland.
wedding of Miss NANNIE HARRIS AND WILLIAM L. GOETTE
A wedding of great interest to the people of Maitland was that of Miss Nannie Harris of Winter Park to William L. Goette, which took place last week Thursday at the home of the brides parents, Captain and Mrs. J. A. Harris.
Mrs. Goette is well known to most of the readers of the News, either personally or through her splendid work as Assistant Principal of the Winter Park High School, while ad. ditional interest is due to the fact that she is the sister of Mrs. C. J. Wood. ward of this city.
All who know of the high place which Mrs. Goette holds in educational circles will be pleased to learn that as Mr. Goette is a school man, being principal of the Eustis High School, her influence and interest in the educational work of the state will continue to be felt.
work star TED ON NEW TOWN HALL AND FIRE HOUSE At a recent meeting of the Town Council a contract for the erection of a modern combination Town Hall, Fire House and Jail was awarded to Geo. B. DeNoyelles. This building will be of hollow tile and stucco and will be located on a lot owned by the town between Independence Lane and Inter street. The building will be placed on the back of the lot facing Independence Lane on the west. This arrangement will leave the remainder of the grounds available for beautification by lawn and appropriate shrubs. On the lower floor will be located the fire house with room for the oc. comodation of the new Boyer Fire Engine recently purchased, the municipal offices and space for town equipment. Located at the rear of the first (Continued on Page 4)
TOWN PURCHASES PUMPING EQUIPMENT FOR WATERWORKS SYSTEM
At a meeting of the Town Count cil Tuesday evening the 22nd a contract was entered into with the Layne Southeastern Company, of St. Peters burg, Florida, state representatives of the Layne Bowler Company of Memphis, Tennessee, for a modern electrically driven deep well pump for the municipal water system. This unit will be of the most mo, dern in every respect, being driven by a 50 H. P. direct connected, vertical, General Electric motor with full automatic control. This automa. tic feature will obviate the necessity of having a full time attendant at the pumping station, because of the fact that when the tank reaches a certain low level the pump will automatically start, and when the tank reaches a certain high level the pump will automatically stop. An inspection of a few minutes a day for the purpose of oiling will be all the attention necessary as the motor will be also equipped with a device protecting it against low voltage current. The capacity of this pump will be 500 gallons per minute, the water being forced directly into the tank 100 feet in the air by the six impellers located 65 feet below the surface and connected with the pump head by shafting, fully encased. Delivery of this equipment cannot be expected in less than six weeks so the manufacturers state, thereby necessitating some further delay in the actual turning on of the water. The final work connected with the laying of the mains and installation of fire hydrants will be completed in a few weeks. This will complete the installation of the water system which has been unavoidably delayed by various causes. First the freight embargo held up (Continued on Page 4)

We note with interest certain statistices quoted in the last issue of the Winter Park Herald, which we should judge to be a pretty good in dication of the intrinsic soundness of Florida today. According to the figures given the amount of freight shipped into Florida by rail through Jacksonville in the first quarter of 1926 exceeded the shipments for the same period in 1925 by 58.5%, and in 1924 by 102.%. And this in spite of the embargo which, as we all know too well, cut down the con sumption of outside commodities by practically everyone who was a res. ident of Florida at that period.
Of equal interest is the record of building and engineering contracts which for the first four months of 1926 amounted to 112,604,600.00, an increase of 12.7% over the 49, 552,400.00 of the corresponding period of 1925, while the April figure was the highest on record for
that month, 92% more than last April. we feel that this information
comes very timely after our article of last week on the increase of buildings in Maitland during the past year, showing, as it does, that our local conditions are reflecting truly those which are general through the state.
Two of the aspects of this construc
THE MAITLAND NEWS
tion program are especially note worthy. One is the fact that a large part of the construction is of a public character. Here in our immediate vicinity we have the new Court House, Station, Auditorium, Coliseum, Telephone Exchange, . M. C. A building, besides schools and churches, in Orlandoa new high school in Winter Park not to men. tion our own municipal buildingtogether with an extensive road program in both Orange and Seminole counties, including the practical rebuilding of state highways No. 2 and 3the latter being the famous Black Bear Trail, a federal military highway, running from Quebec to St. Petersburg and Miami, and including Maitland among its points of interest.
The other feature is that a large proportion of the capital being used in the private enterprises comes from northern financiers, who, while at the moment they appear shy about invest ing in Florida real estate, are placing their money here in substantial busi ness enterprises, which will be of permanent value in the development of the country, thus showing that their confidence in the future of Flor ida is unshaken.

This news will come as a great shock and grief to the many friends of Dr. Hardwick in Maitland, who will join the News in offering their sincere and heartfelt condolences to Mrs. Hardwick.
FINAL Action TAKEN by COUNCIL FOR COMPLETING WATER WORKS

After receipt of these specifications it was necessary, by law, to advertise for thirty days for bids on this equipment, which brings us up to the present time. If everything goes well from now on prospective water consumers may reasonably expect service by the middle of August. work started on new town HALL AND FIRE HOUSE

On the second floor will be located an assembly hall for the uses of the town council.
Construction has already started and the structure will be completed by September first according to the terms of the contract.
CITRUS CULTURESPRAYING ( Forrest B. Stone) This is the time of year when the citrus grower has to watch his trees and young fruit very carefully as the little pest known as the rust mite is about to put in his
greatest work. Damage done by this in
sect lowers the grade of fruit in two ways, it makes a rusty appearing fruit which detracts from its appearance a great deal and reduces its value fifty or more cents per box, it also prevents the fruit from maturing to its normal size. Last year there was not a great amount of damage done by the rust mite as it seemed to be an of year, consequently there is likely to be an over supply of them this year. Just at present conditions indicate that they are more plentiful than they have been in years and it behooves every orange grower to spray or dust just as soon as they appear in any quantities. A
behind the cage.
THE MAITLAND NEWS
heavy lime sulphur solution seems to give the best results and will last over a much longer period than the dust, however it is not possible to apply same as rapidly and where you have large acreage the dust seems to be preferred. The spraying should be repeated two or three times or as often as necessary to control the mite. For white fly and scale if they are to be found in any quantity the grove should be sprayed at once with an oil spray as it keeps the trees clean and gives them better breathing facilities.
How A BANK STRIKES A BALANCE
In the introduction to this series of articles on banking, reference was made to the many interesting things that go on I regret that lack of space in each issue of this paper causes each article to be practically a summary, but it cant be helped.
The balance of a set of books is of primary importance, since it proves that each account is correct, except in cases of cross-errors which are rare.) Bank bookkeeping differs only in detail from any other form of bookkeeping and is simply a matter of credits and debits.
In opening a set of bank books, the capital stock and surplus constitute a credit on one side, and the cash on hand and the cost of banking house and fixtures are the balancing debit on the other side. Deposit slips, cashiers checks, bank drafts and interest all go on the credit side of the books, and the checks and cash received for credits mentioned constitute the debit to offset the credits.
At the end of the day all of the credits, the deposits, the cashiers checks and drafts, and the intrest together with the cash carried over from the previous day are added up and a total obtained. The debits, checks, notes, and cash for the day must equal the total of the credits, or the bank is out of balance and the difference must be found.
All checks on other banks are sent away for collection. In the case of a small bank, the foreign items, as they are called, are usually deposited in a larger bank from which they are in turn sent out to the banks on which the checks are drawn. It is not unusual for a check to go through four or five different banks before it reaches its destination, and it may be in the mails for several days.
In posting the accounts, each check and deposit must be handled five or six different times. For instance: suppose John Smith has a balance of 1,000.00 and draws three checks for 100.00 each and makes two deposits for 150.00 each. These items must be listed and proved, the de posits added to his balance on two different sheets, ledger sheet and statement sheet) and the checks subtracted from the total on these same sheets. His new balance will be the same 1,000.00, but twenty separte transactions have been made to reach that new balance.
It is indeed a blessing that the banks of today have the use of accurate bookkeeping machines without which the in tricate bank bookkeeping could not be performed.

GREEN wood GARDENs. FIELD OFFICE TO HAVE BEAUTIFUL SETTING -
Work has been started toward the beautification of the lot in Greenwood Gardens where the Maitland Realty Company field office stands. This lot will be laid out and planted under the direction of S. B. Hill, . and F. B. Stone as a model home lot, showing what can be done in a short time and with a minimum of labor and expense to beautify and improve a Greenwood Gardens lot. The rear of the lot is being used temporarily as a nursery for cuttings and plants which are being raised for use in other parts of the subdivision, and which will be distributed as soon as they are of sufficient size for transplanting. The beautification of the entire subdivision is to be carried out as fast as practicable, depending some what upon the paving and other work, as street plantings cannot be (Continued on Page 2)
The regular monthly sewing and luncheon meeting of the Maitland Auxiliary took place at the Library last Friday. Twenty-seven members were present and seventy-four gar ments have been finished this summer, with about thirty more started The next meeting will be held on the fourth Friday in July, the 23rd.
SIDEwALKS LAID IN ORANGEDALE PARK
The sidewalk on the south side of Tangerine Place has been finished. This is the first sidewalk to be laid in Orangedale Park, the largest restricted subdivision in south Maitland. Sidewalks on the other streets will be laid immediately and petitions for paving have been in for some time. These streets will open up an attract tive residence district lying between Maitland and Winter Park, a convenient and desirable location.
TAX ASSESSOR APPOINTED
The Council has appointed Louis L. Coudert as tax assessor for 1926. This seems a very happy appointment as Mr. Coudert, who is also town engineer and surveyor, has in files, plats and descriptions of the property in the town which will be of great assistance in making out the assess ment roll. The Council has also appointed J. H. Hill, C. J. Woodward and K. N. McPherson as members of the Special Tax Commision, all of whom have served on this commission in previous years and are well quainted with property values in Maitland.
NEW FIRE ZONES ESTABLISHED
The Zoning Commission at a recent meeting enlarged the first fire zone to extend through the lots on the east side of vanderpool Avenue and to include the business lots in the SpragueQuinn addition. A secondary fire -one was established on the west of Maitland avenue, back of the lots fac. ing on the avenue. This is a district in which stores may be built which do not conform with the strict require ments of the first zone, thus giving an opportunity for small enterprises to be established near the business center for which the erection of a fire proof building would be prohi. bitory. In addition to these two busi ness zones two industrial zones have been established; one on the west side of Maitland Ave. between Packwood and the railroad, and one north of George St. and south of Cybelia, on both sides of the railroad. In these zones, lumber yards, garages and small inoffensive manufacturing plants may be placed. All of the rest of the town is classed as res. idence, subject of course to future developments, when further business and industrial zones may be required.
Miss Lois Haile left on Tuesday for a months visit in South Carolina and North Carolina.
Will be Delivered to Town. After Inspec. tion by Orlando Reo Agency.
Great excitement was felt in Maito land Monday afternoon when two shiny red fire trucks dashed along Maitland avenue, the second one with the name Maitland plainly visible as it passed out of sight around Lily Lake. Unfortunately its coming had not been heralded and it was the chance bystander who had the first glimpse of the new truck, while the majority of the citizens must wait until it has been overhauled by the Reo Agency in Orlando and formally turned over to the town before they can receive convincing proof that Maitland at last boasts a real fire department.
MUNICIPAL BUILDING PROGRESSING RAPIDLY
The walls of the municipal building which was commenced last week are nearly completed work is being pushed rapidly and it is expected that great progress will be made during the next week.
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE CHANGES MEETING TIME
At the last meeting of the Chamber of Commerce it was decided to hold only one meeting a month dur: ing July and August, as many of the members expect to be out of town during a part of the summer, and there is not so much business to attend to at this time of year. These meetings will be held on the second Thursday of each month. The at tendance at the meetings has been splendid upto-date, never dropping below twenty-five and it is trusted that the same record will continue all Sunninner.
Mrs. I. Vanderpool, Miss Kitty Vanderpool and Miss Stella water. house have taken a cottage at Anna Maria Island, for the first two weeks
of July.

CAN we Avoid ACCIDENTso
The accident last week in which a truck of the National Biscuit Como pany was hit on the Horatio avenue crossing of the A. C. L. railroad and practically demolished reminds us of the four other accidents that have taken place in the past three years at this same crossing, one of which just escaped being a tragedy. While we do not presume to offer a remedy for this condition we feel that it would be well for the proper authori. ties to bring pressure to bear on the railroad to make some provision for protection at this point before a fatal accident occurs.
The crossing is doubly dangerous, being on a curve where the track is visible only a few hundred feet in each direction, and crossing both the railroad and the main highway at the busiest point in the town. We know that the railroad does not provide gates or flagmen save in the large cities, but we feel that Maitland should at least voice her protest against the lack of protection at this crossing.
PROGRESS OF B. L.
We hope shortly to be able to publish a report from the committee appointed some weeks ago by the Chamber of Commerce to promote the ex
tension of the Winter Park Building and Loan Association in Maitland. This committee, consisting of D. G. Spain, E. A. Upmeyer and A. B. Rowland, is very enthusiastic and we feel sure will be ready for a report at an early date.

put in until all grading and construce tion work is finished and the streets cleaned up. It is expected, however, that this will all be completed before the tree planting season comes around and that parkways and streets in the sections will be in good order by fall.
Local ITEMs Mr. and Mrs. Louis L. Coudert and little son left on Saturday for a few weeks trip to New York and other points in the north.
Mr. A. B. Rowland has gone to St. Augustine for the weekend, where he will meet Mrs. Rowland and children, who have just come down from Westfield, N. J. Mr. and Mrs. Rowland will occupy the home in Greenwood Gardens which they have recently purchased and which is now being remodeled.

Airplane Maps of Maitland Delivered
The funeral of Dr. Sydney C. Hardwick, who died at his northern home in Hingham, Mass., on June 16, took place at Christ Episcopal Church, in Quincy on the afternoon of June 19. The services were attended by many military men and organizations, and a large gathering of civilians. The body was escorted to Mt. Wol. laston Cemetery by three companies of the National Guard, and at the grave, full military honors were paid by the firing squad and buglar. Delegations from the Howitzer company, headquarters company and third bat. tery, all of Quincy, the . D. Club, the George F. Cryan post, Veterans of Foreign Wars, the Massachusetts Medical Society and the Norfolk South Medical Association attended.
Dr. Hardwick, formerly a well known physician in Quincy, Mass., went to France with the 104th regiment of the 26th division and served as a regimental surgeon during the war. Receiving an honorable discharge following the close of the war he returned to Quincy and resumed his practice. His health, however, soon began to fail, the effect largely of his being gassed in the war, and he came to Maitland hoping a change would be beneficial. He purchased a grove on Fish Lake, just outside of town, where he built a beautiful home and was developing a splendid estate, while Dr. Hardwicks health, which while it improved for a time was al. ways precarious, prevented his taking an active share in public affairs, he always showed lively interest in the growth of Maitland, and stood for all that was best in its development.
During the past winter, Dr. Hard. wick has been steadily losing ground. Since he went north two months ago he has been very ill and has failed rapidly. He is survived by his wife and one son, Sydney C. Hardwick, .
Miss Lucy Brown is visiting at Sarasota and Mrs. . M. Brown left this week for North Carolina to remain during the summer.
Interesting Topographical Feature of Town Shown in Great Detail
The town engineer has received the airplane maps of Maitland, which were ordered last spring, and one of these can be seen at the office of the Maitland Realty Company. These maps show in detail all the features of the topography of Maitland, the streets, buildings, groves and lakes, giving an idea of the general character of the country and the relative location of different points in a way im: possible to gain from ordinary maps and photographs. The maps are made up from photographs of small sections which will overlap so much that any inaccuracies of measurement can be eliminated when the parts are fitted together. Section corners are marked before the pictures are taken so as to be visible in the original prints and by aid of these the pictures are adjusted to scale and are practically as exact as an ordinary map.
AMERICAN FRUIT GROWERS PLAN NEW PACKING HOUSE
The American Fruit Growers are making plans for rebuilding their packing house in Maitland. They expect to rebuild on the old site and to have the building ready for the opening of the next citrus season. A good packing house is an asset to any come munity and it is expected that the American Fruit Growers will put up a building which will be a credit to their organization and the Town of Maitland.
C. C. JACKSON SELLS HOME
C. C. Jackson has sold his home on Packwood Avenue to Calvin H. Hill. Mr. Jackson came to Maitland about five years ago, and bought a tract of land with a fine grove extending from the Dixie Highway down to Lake Sybelia. Here he built a home, as the house formerly occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Niver had recently burned. Two years ago Mr. Jackson platted the property and sold off all but the
J. H. BENNETT PURCHASES LOT IN GREENWOOD GARDENS
Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Bennett have purchased a lot in Greenwood Gardenson the corner of Marion Wayand Gamewell Avenue. They plan to build on this lot when business conditions make their present home un desirable.
FIRE TRUCK RECEIVEld in MAITLAND
Maitlands fire truck was delivered to the town last Friday and is being kept in the Maitland Garage until the municipal building shall be finished. The truck was tried out before delivery by Mr. Perkins, sales agent of the Reo Co. and Mr. Foster, chief of the Winter Park Fire Department, and found to be in perfect condition.
The fire department is being organ ized with . A. Brown, chief, J. H. Bennett, assistant chief and M. L. Kyle, driver. Instructions will be given by Mr. Foster, of Winter Park. Telephone calls for the truck may be made through the Maitland Garage, 1314W or the Electric Shop, 1201X. An extension will soon be placed in the house of J. H. Bennett for night use.
MAITLAND PEOPLE CELEBRATE THE FOURTH
Maitland sent a large representa tion to Daytona for the Fourth, where an unusually fine entertainment was given, including a parade with a large number of clever floats and a beautio ful display of fireworks in the evening Among the Maitland representatives were Mr. and Mrs. F. T. Marsh, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Horner and son, and Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Bennett and family, who spent the weekend at New Smyrna, motoring over to Day. tona on the fifthMr. and Mrs. F. H.

THE News, YOUR PAPER
The Maitland News has reached today, its tenth issue and the editor feels amply repaid, the time and trouble expended, the interest shown by the readers. The business houses are supporting us with enthusiasm and subscriptions are coming in well. Best of all our paper is being read.
In one way, however, the editor asks that the public help more than they have, and that is in the collecting of news items. Whatever is happen. ing in the town is of interest to some one. Have you bought a car, changed your residence, entertained a guest, taken a trip, gone on a picnic, gotten marriedLet us know so that we may print it in the paper. That is what a local paper is for and the News wishes to give full publicity to all local items. But unfortunately our staff is small, our time is fully oc. cupied and we cannot get out and find the news.
So we ask you, one and all, to help us with information as to what is hap. pening in town. Orif you have some thought or suggestion about town affairs that you would like to place be fore the people, send us a letter and we will be glad to print it. The News is your paper if you will help to make it that.

A Red Shirt
A red shirt used to be the official badge of a fireman, and membership in a fire company was a social distinction. Nowadays the red shirt has given way to a more effective if less picturesque uniform and the business of fire fighting has become a scientific study involving
the causes of fires and means of prevention.
Maitlands new fire engine preserves the traditional color, but is otherwise an upto-date machinemore effective than a dozen of the old time social bucket companies. With all the advances in fire prevention and control, insurance remains the only means of repaying
losses and damage that inevitably follow even the smallest of blazes.
NAre your properties adequately protected with insurance. Are your policies upto-date and are you sure that you are complying with | the provisions necessary to assure full payment in case of loss? It
is our business to protect you. We are doing it for many in north
Orange and south Seminole counties. Some of the policies have been
in force with us for twelve years.
Call or write us and we will be glad to talk over your insurance
ds without obligation.

Maitland Avenue to Have Modern Stores
DAILY WACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
Beginning Monday morning, July 26th, the Presbyterian Church will hold its first Vacation Bible School. This is the first school of this kind to be held in Maitland, and will be a community affair. Boys and girls from all denominations are welcome. No denominational subjects will be taught. The ages are from three to fourteen. The school will last five days, and the hours will be from nine to twelve A. M. At about ten oclock each morning the school will drop its work and go out into the yard for a halfhour of play and games. Recreation is a big part of the work of the school, and a good time is guaranteed for all those who attend.
The older girls will be taught how to make pine needle and raffia baskets, and a class in woodwork will be held for the boys.
On Friday night at 8 oclock come mencement exercises will be held. Diplomas will be given those who attend every day and finish the work.
There are no charges for this school. All the courses are free to the boys and girls of our community who are within the range of the above men. tioned agesthree to fourteen. We hope to secure the school house for that period, but posters and other information specifying the place and other details, will be given out later on in the month.
This is a big opportunity for the children, and parents should see that their boys and girls are enrolled in the school.
TOWN RECEIVES MONEY FOR WORKS BONDS
Final payment on the 40,000.00 bond issue for the Maitland water system, which was voted last fall, has been paid over to the town by the Wright-warlow Company of Orlan do, who bid in the bonds at ninetyfive. Half of this money was paid some time ago, but there has been some delay in closing up the transac:
(Continued on Page 4)
W. T. Clare has broken ground for a twostory hollowtile store building with face brick front to be erected at the south end of his lot on Maitland Avenue, north of George Street. The building will be well-built and mod: ern in every respect, an asset to the town and neighborhood. The street frontage will be forty two feet, con taining two stores. On the second floor there will be two apartments, with four rooms, bath and two sleep. ing porches in each apartment. The building is being erected by DeNoy. ells and Marsh, general contractors.
This building is opposite the White Way Restaurant, and is an indication that business is tending to extend north along Maitland Avenue.
FIRE DEPARTMENT ORGANIZES
The Maitland Fire Department is organizing under the direction of J. A. Brown and J. H. Bennett. Copies of the Orlando rules and regulations have been secured from Chief Dean and will be revised and used as a basis for the organization of the Maitland department. Fire drill is being held twice a week under the instruction of Mr. Foster of Winter Park. Every man who is willing to help is asked to come out and practice so that he may be of real service in time of need. The department is doing all in its power to provide protection by se curing a water supply until the time when city water is available. To this end a temporary brick road will be laid immediately down to Lake Sy. belia from Horatio Avenue, so that the engine can pump from there. As the distance from the shore of the lake to the post office corner is only 600 feet, the 1500 feet of hose which the department owns will cover all the business district and make a repetition of the recent packing house fire im possible. Other lakes and the two branches will be used for water in the outlying districts. For day calls, phone Maitland rage or Maitland Electric Company. For night calls, phone . I. Strong
тоwN sвсURING поo Foот HIGHWAY RIGHT OF WAY ALONG VANDERPOOL AVENUE
Deeds have been drawn up by the town attorney and are now being executed for a hundredfoot right-ofway along Vanderpool Avenue north of Packwood Avenue, where the new route of state highway No. 3 will come through the town. Rights-ofway have already been secured for this highway through Seminole county, giving a hundredfoot road straight through the country from Sanford to Maitland. Contracts for drainage and grading have already been let as far as the SeminoleOrange County line, where the road enters Maitland just east of Lake Seminary. The route through Maitland runs down Vanderpool Avenue to a point south of Packwood, where it will swing west and strike the present highway near Lily Lake. The route south of that point has not been determined. By continuing the hundredfoot street through the town, congestion will be prevented and the beautiful trees which line Vanderpool Avenue can be saved as the plan is to have a double drive through the center of the town. Most of the property owners have already been approached on the subject and have signified their will ingness to give the required land. As soon as these deeds are in, steps will be taken by the state to start work on this portion of the highway.
NEW FIRM OF CONTRACTORS
FORMED
G. B. DeNoyelles and F. T. Marsh have opened up a contracting business with headquarters at Maitland. Mr. DeNoyelles has been living in Win. ter Park for sometime and has done considerable work in this vicinity. Mr. Marsh was an architect and contraco tor in New Jersey before coming to Maitland last winter. He is town building inspector.

volunTEER FOR FIRE DEPARTMENT
Maitland has a fine fire engine, 1,. 500 feet of hose, and is getting fur. ther necessary equipment as rapidly as possible. All that is needed for adequate fire protection is a trained body of men. We have the oppor: tunity of practice under an able fire. man. Are you men going to avail ourselves of that chance, so that when your home is threatened with fire you can help to save itWhen your business is in danger you may prevent its loss? When your town faces destruction you can avert itIt is for you to decide whether the expenditure made by the town in this expensive equipment shall be thrown away or shall bring in a thousand-fold return. Yours is the opportunity to bring credit to your town and honor to yourself? Who will respond
COWPEAS VERSUS WATER LILIES
We fiind it hard to determine whether it is the absence of the lily pads in Lily Lake or the presence of the cowpeas around the shore which is chiefly responsible for the improved appearance of that bit of water. And this query presents itself as a corol. lary. Will Lily Lake have to be re. named Pea Pond?
ROOF ON TOWN HALL
The municipal building is now under cover and the roughing in for both plumbing and wiring has been come pleted. The contractors estimate that the building will be completed in four weeks time. DUPLEx APARTMENT PROGRESSING RAPIDLY
J. G. Friedland has finished the roof on the two apartment house which he is building on Inter Street. The roughing in of the wiring and plumbing is completed and the apart ments will be ready for occupancy before fall. This is a new type of building for Maitland, and marks an other step in her development.

A GOOD Proposition
No doubt there are many Maitland people who have safe. deposit boxes in Winter Park and Orlando banks, and who find it rather inconvenient to go so far in getting anything out of them.
These boxes are probably paid for until the first of the year, but why wait six months to move your valuables to a much more convenient vault
Here is our proposition: To those people who own boxes in other places, and who will find it more convenient to have a box in their own town, WE WILL GIVE ABOX WITHOUT CHARGE UNTIL JANUARY FIRST
We have only about sixty safedeposit boxes left, and they will be given to the first callers. After January first the charge for these boxes will be at the rate of 2.00 per year.
This offer is not limited to customers of the bank, but is open to any Maitland resident.

A NEW spirit ABROAD IN THE LAND
From Manufacturers Record Never in the near half century of the work of this paper for the South has there been such a Southwide spread of creative upbuilding work. From Virginia to Texas people every. where are showing a spirit of activity for larger achievements. As one outcome of this the Manu. facturers Record is daily flooded with more interesting articles, more items of news voluntarily sent in from all parts of the South than ever before in its history. Bankers, manufacture ers, merchants and business men gen erally are showing an enthusiasm for constructive, creative work, which guarantees a more widespread and larger progress in everything that makes for human advancement than the South has ever known before. It is a revival, but on a larger, wider scale, with much more behind it of that enthusiastic, allconquering spirit which after 1876 took possession of the South until the fearful panic fol. lowing the Baring failure brought on general depression throughout the na tion. This spirit shows a determination on the part of Southern people to work for the upbuilding of their own country. Southern capital and Southern brains and brawn are being thrown into constructive work with unwonted energy and enthusiasm, and coincident with this is a nationwide awakening to the fact that the South is the coming El Dorado of American development, unmatched in its resources and opportunities by any other like area in the world. Southern railroads have been make ing larger earnings than those of any other section, and hundreds of millions of dollars have been added to the value of their securities, to the great enrichment of their stockhold. ers. - It is no longer necessary to try to convert Southern people to the possi. bilities of their country; no longer
necessary to try, in the language of
the day, to sellthe South to Northern and Western bankers and busness men. The country at large, as well as the South itself, is already soldon the South. The only ques. tion at issue is, at what place and in what industry or in what enterprise there is offered the largest amount of profit with a fair degree of certainty of success.
THE MAITLAND NEWS
In the press, on the platform, even sometimes in the pulpit, the sweep of Southern progress as it bears on the future of this section and of the country is being proclaimed, not only in the South but in all other sections. This is finding expression through a flood of news matter about towns and cities and states, about agriculture and industries, which crowds our mails to such an extent that many important special articles have been waiting their turn for monthssome of them for five or six monthsand many articles, good in themselves, have to be rejected because of the inability to find space for all that come. But in this very flood of enthusiastic work for the South is to be found the most unanswerable argument as to this wonderful awakening of the South to itself and of the country about the South.

Mr. G. W. Backus, who has just returned from a meeting of the Southeastern Conductors Association in Savannah, brings a most interesting account of the trip made by some of the conductors to Cuba. They found Havana a city worth visiting, which in cleanliness surpasses cities of the same size in the United States.
On the return trip the East Coast Railroad made a record run, covering the 522 miles from Key West to Jack. sonville in twelve hours, fifty minutes. The usual time is between fifteen and sixteen hours.

WORK IS STARTED ON WINTER PARK NEW HIGH SCHOOL
Building Completed Sometime This Fall
The work of clearing ground for the new Winter Park High School will be finished within a few days and the erection of the first unit of the new school will be started at that time. Construction will be rapidly pushed in the endeavor to finish the building sometime this Fall so as to take care of the thirty per cent increase in students which crowded the old high school building last year.
This building is the first of three units to be built on the five acre tract in the southern section of the city. It will be of hollow tile, finished in stucco, following the graceful lines of the Mediteranean architecture and will consist of 16 rooms.
The architects plans show a large auditorium with ample room for a gymnasium and commercial department for the center unit, with the senior and junior high school buildings on either side. Upon the completion of the first building it will be used as the senior and junior high school.

OF MAITLAND REALTY COMPANY
Theodore R. Jones, of Winter Park has taken the position of Branch Manager of the Winter Park Office of the Maitland Realty Company, and will officially open that office August 2nd.

L. Miller and Company, Investment Bankers, of New York and Atlanta. On coming to Florida Mr. Jones entered the real estate business in St. Petersburg, where he and his family lived for several years.

BILLBOARDS AGAIN?
The billboard evil is not yet entirely annihilated, even here in Maitland where we have both county and town authorities behind strong public senti ment in favor of abolishing this blot on our beauty. There is, however, one spot along the highway where signs seem to congregate, and altho there is no special view to hide, it seems unfortunate that the juncture of the two beautiful cities of Winter Park and Maitland should be made the advertising board for anyone who sees fit to erect a sign within the limits of Maitland these signs are kept off the right-of-way, but the Town has no jurisdiction over private property.
Recently one concern has erected three signs along this bit of highway. Have they had permission to do soIf so, will not someone who has in fluence with these property owners show the the undesirability of putting their property to such uses? If they did not get permission, will the property owners see that the signs are removed?
Two means can public opinion use to discourage billboards. First, it can arouse in property owners a real pride in property. This has been done to a great extent. Last year a sign company chose twenty desirable places in Orange County to erect signs and
-
THE MATLAND NEWS
of these twenty, in only two cases were they given the concession asked. Can we in Maitland cut that number by twoIt can show its disapproval by patronizing these firms that keep their names off the highway. A consistent program along both these lines will do much to rid our highways of this blemish.

The Southern states showed a gain of almost 10 per cent in building per mits for the first six months of 1926, setting a new high mark for all times with 436,200.423 for the period ords complied by the survey department of G. M. Miller and Company
investment bond house, of Atlanta
The total for the same period in 1925 was 400,384,784, which was a 15 per cent gain over 1924. Every semiannual period since 1924 was said to have a new high mark.
"Contrary to the popular opinion," the report said, there has been no lessening of construction apparent in Florida. This state amassed a total of 155,144,303 for the six months against 87,095,115 for a similar per iod in 1925. Although there had been some falling off from the winter months in the spring the month of June returned more than a million dollars more than May.
"with such a showing, Florida easily ranked first with more than 35, 000,000 ahead of Texas, where great gains have been in evidence for a number of months. Miami also took honors among cities of the farther south, leading Houston, its nearest competitor, by four million, and At

REPLACING OLD AND WORN OUT CURRENCY
Today this country uses three times more paper money than used in 1916, and six times more than in 1900. This means that the wear and tear on currency is correspondingly greater than in the years mentioned, and all of this money must be replaced and put back into circulation. The government maintains a print. ing office called the Bureau of graving and Printing, and that is where the money is made. The banks of the country send in to the Treasury or Federal Reserve Banks all of the mutilated and worn out bills they get and these are destroyed. Over two million four hundred thousand pounds of such money is destroyed and replaced every year, at a cost of over four million dollars. In order to reduce the enormous expense of printing new money, the government is trying to reduce the different varieties of bills, now numbering thirty-nine, to eleven, and is also trying to cut down the size of the bills. The saving on each bill, by the above mentioned changes, would be inconsiderable, but in the aggregate the reduced expense would be great. Government experts have perfected many machines with which to test our paper money, and the results of these tests have increased the life of each bill. Even now however, the life of the average one dollar bill is only six months. A folding test machine, a bursting test machine and a rubbing machine are some of the devices used to stimulate the wear and tear on the bill, and the result of each test is tabulated and studied and new methods of making the money are devised. The special currency paper used will not break until exposed to about 2000 foldings. Efforts are being made to armour the bills against grease and dirt, and the ink used is waterproof. Each bill, or rather the paper before the bill is printed, is bathed in glue to cement the fibers, and then the paper is sprayed with a formaldehyde solution which produces the dirt. resisting coating. Even with all the resources of science at its command the govern. ment is spending more money each year to replace our worn out currency, but at that, if we wear it out quicker it is surely an indication we are using more money than ever before, and reflects an increasing prosperity over the whole country.

Pioneer Resident of Maitland Passes Away
VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL OPENS WELL
The vacation Bible School, which is being held this week under the direction of Mrs. E. D. Visor, opened Monday at the schoolhouse with an enrollment of forty-two pupils.
This school is interdenominational and free to all boys and girls of Mait land between the ages of three and fourteen. The school is divided into three departments; beginners, primary and junior. The older girls are taught raffia work by Miss Bessie Galloway, and the older boys, woodwork by Mr. S. J. Stiggins, while the younger chil. dren have hand work in cardboard, color work, etc., under the direction of Mrs. C. B. McNair, Mrs. S. J. Stiggins and Miss Georgianna Hill. There are daily Bible drills for all children and Mrs. . Cammack gives a missionary talk every morning.
On Friday evening at eight oclock, commencement exercises will be held in the Presbyterian Church, as alterations to the school auditorium make that unavoidable. The handwork of the children will be displayed at this time and all who have completed the course and been present every day will receive diplomas. An offering will be taken for the expenses of the school. All parents and friends of the children are urged to be present.
Council buys WATER METERS
At the regular meeting of the Council held July 22nd, the order was given for water meters, to the Pittsburgh Meter Company.
The Council has also bought a force pump from the Library and installed it at the Cemetery. This will make it possible to get water for plants and will be a great convenience to the people of the town.
Mrs. Joseph Lee and little daughter, who have been occupying the Hutch. inson cottage in Maitland during the summer, are visiting Mrs. Lees parents, Dr. and Mrs. D. T. Percy, in Arlington, Mass.
MAITLAND FIRE ENGINE ANswers FIRST CALL
Maitlands Fire Department answ. ered their first call Monday evening, when A. B. Rowland reported a grass fire in Eatonville, which was threaten. ing the Industrial Building at Hungerford School. Five minutes from the turning in of the alarm, the truck was on the way with a dozen firemen in place. One of the firemen who was in Winter Park at the time heard the whistle and reached the scene of the fire just as the truck arrived.
Fortunately the wind was away from the building and the fire was easily extinguished without the use of chemicals, but the dry weather made the conditions rather alarming. Had the fire been difficult to control, water is available from a nearby lake, one of those which the department had already located as a source of supply in case of fire in that locality.
TOWN HALL COMPLETED
A record has been made in the building of the new town hall, contracts for which were let the latter part of June, with September first as the date for completion. It is now expected that the work will be com: pleted this week and the building ready for occupancy on August first, one month ahead of time. The town offices, which since the old building became untenantable have had temporary quarters in the office of the Maitland Realty Company, will be moved in as soon as practicable, after the first of the month.
The building is of hollow tile and stucco, consists of a double garage on one side with doors at both ends so that either street can be used, with room for fire truck and a town truck and other town equipment. On the other side is a two story building, with clerks office on the front and back of the two jail cells, with a high barred window and an iron grill door in each, thus giving ventilation. There are ample closets for storage, and up

FRANK ADAMS DIES AT HOME AFTER LONG ILLNESS
Frank Adams, one of the oldest and best known citizens of Maitland, passed away at his home, at nine oclock Monday evening. Mr. Adams had been suffering from cancer for many months and for several weeks had been in a serious condition. With him at the time of his death were his son and daughterin-law, Mr. and Mrs. F. Ellison Adams, who have been with him for some time past. His daughter, Mrs. Crutchfield, who had been in Maitland the past week, was called north Friday by the illness of her son, but was expected to return to the funeral. Interment was to be in the Winter Park cemetery, on Friday afternoon.
Frank Adams was born in Alex. andria, Virginia, in 1842, the son of Samuel R. Adams and Theresa Veitch Adams. His father was a financier and was at the head of a large import. ing business in that city. His grandfather, Richard Adams, also from Vir ginia, owned vast plantations in Lon. don County, Frank Adams outlived his two brothers, Henry C. and William H. of Richmond and New York.
Mr. Adams received his education abroad, at Rugby, England, Versailles, France and at the college in Leipsig, Germany. After finishing his education he joined his father and brothers in business in New York City, where they established the well-known firm of Adams and Company . Co.
Mr. Adams was married three times. His first wife, Fanny B. Cannon of Baltimore, Md., died in 1883. He had one child by this marriage, a daughter, who died in Maitland, at the age of nineteen. In 1886, Mr. Adams married Edith Ellison, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Ellison, of Louisville, Ky. Two chil. dren survive him by this marriage, Theresa Gladys, who is Mrs. Charles Crutchfield, of New York City, and Francis Ellison Adams, of New York

NOW IS THE TIME
Maitlands future as a town of more than cross-roads signifiance depends upon administrative methods of more than cross-roads effectiveness. People are attracted by enterprise, activity and accomplishment, and certainly people make a town.
For years Maitland has struggled for recognition, struggled against limited finances, few men of ability to carry on the public work and a spirit of wait, wait, wait, among the average citizenry. Fortunately, fairer tax methods and upto-date financing have strengthened the municipality financio ally so that, for her size, she ranks among the best. And too, never since her founding has Maitland had more able men, and willing, to guide her municipal affairs. But still there per sists a little of the old cross-roads spirit of wait, wait, wait.”
Financing a town is vastly different from financing a private enterprize, where fashion, fancy and the public market are unknown factors, and where income hazards profit. To be a town at all implies a gathering of people with common purpose where a fair share of each mans wealth is annually pledged to the public good and where public improve ments are carried on for the increasing benefit of those who live with: in the community. To facilitate a
THE MAITLAND NEWS
businesslike program, laws empowering municipal government to tax the land for its improvement have been enacted to the end that general in stallation of streets, water and sanita. tion may be financed in anticipation of tax income, so that present genera: tions may enjoy and pay their part of the cost of permanent improvements with the assurance that generations to come may enjoy and pay their part of the cost of these improvements. Maitland no longer needs to wait for needed streets and other improve ments for the public good and for the greater enjoyment of her people. Nor need she wait for more people to come to share the cost. People will come if they are attracted by beauty, convenience and thrift. Today we have town officials who know Maitlands needs. We have the means and methodsproven and prac. ticalto give Maitland now the things that will take her out of the crossroads class. Are we not speculating with the towns future when we delay availing ourselves of the means at hand to secure needed improvements? Are we not avoiding apparent financial risks today only to jeopardize the future community fortune, that can best be built on aggresive use of the time and facilities of each today?
Waiting does no good.

Your Valuables are Worth MoreThan 2 Why Take Chances?
In the event of fire or theft your valuable papers and articles are liable to be a total loss, and many of the things you value cannot be replaced, others can be replaced only at some expense and great trouble.
Such loss is easily avoided if you have a safedeposit box in your bank, and the cost of a box compared to its value to you in case of fire or theft is nothing.
Let us give you a box in this banks vault free of charge until January 1st, and then charge you for it at the rate of 2.00 per year.

LOUIS L. COUDERT BRINGS GOOD REPORT FROM NEW YORK
Louis L. Coudert, President of the Maitland Chamber of Commerce, who with Mrs. Coudert and their little son has recently returned from a three weeks trip to New York, reports a most satisfactory tripbarring the heat which brought them back to Flor. ida a week sooner than they had planned. Mr. Coudert says that on reaching Gainsville they noticed a difference and a buoyancy in the atmos. phere which was lacking further north and which brought relief even though the thermometer registered as high a mark.
The roads all the way were exceptionally good, even in Georgia, where great improvement is shown and which in the next two years will have established a complete system of first class highways. The hotels are good and very reasonable, and all through the country the crops seem to be excellent and there are signs of progress, although the old south shows no such development as is found here in Orange County.
Mr. Coudert further reports a great interest manifested in Florida where. ever he went, and indications of a larger migration the coming winter than ever before. Strangers, he con tinued, seeing my Florida license came up to inquire where I came from and people in my home town called me to make inquiries. The questions asked were of an intelligent character, show. ing realthought and interest. While I was home two families in the townof about 12,000 populationsold out everything and started for Florida. The only real prejudice against Florida which I encountered seemed to be caused by the eroneous idea that all Florida was involved in the wildcat speculation which took place in a few localities, and what we must all try to explain to those in Florida is that the great part of its vast extent of territory, like Orange County, is only progressing normally and naturally.

PIONEER RESIDENT PASSES AWAY (Continued from Page 1) City and Maitland. Mr. and Mrs. Adams were divorced in 1910. In the winter of 1919 Mr. Adams married Mary Louise Voorhes, of Miltonvale, Kansas. Mr. Adams came to Maitland in 1881, where he established one of the first homes in the town, and has since then been closely identified with the social and business life of the come munity. His packing house, which has just been torn down to make place for the central park, was the second
business structure to be erected in Maitland. Mr. Adams was among the early capitalists to recognize the advantage of Florida and his enthusiasm for the
state has always been great. His family through his influence invested largely in the southern section of Flor ida before many people realized its possibilities and later disposed of their holdings to great advantage.
Although failing health had for some years prevented Mr. Adams from active participation in town affairs, he always felt a lively interest in what. ever was going on and he will be long remembered for his part in the early history and upbuilding of the town and state.

Little Damage in Maitland from Tropical Storm
vacation Bible SCHOOL HOLDS CLosing EXERCISES
The closing exercises of the Daily Vacation Bible School were held in the Presbyterian Church Friday evening. After the school had marched in and filled the center pews, the exercises were opened with the Doxolo , followed by the Invocation, of: fered by Rev. Mr. Orwick, pastor of the Methodist church. The school then gave the salute to the American Flag and the Christian Flag, after which they sang, The Churchs One Foundation.” The Rev. Mr. Visor, pastor of the Presbyterian Church, gave a short talk, explaining what the aims of the school are, and thanking those who assisted in the work. Then the Pri. mary and Beginnersclasses gave a demonstration of song and memory work, followed by the Juniors, who showed excellent work in memorizing the books of the Bible and in story telling. After the singing of a song, diplomas and certificates were awarded to thirty-seven out of the forty-nine pupils enrolled in the school, and the exercises were concluded with the benediction by the pastor. A collection amounting to 38.81 to defray the expenses of the school was taken up. A large part of this amount consisted of a generous dona: tion from the Ku Klux Klan, who made their first appearance in Maitland that evening to express their approval of this work. The hand work of the children which was displayed and the programs rendered showed splendid results for a weeks work, and great credit is due Mr. and Mrs. Visor and their assist ants, Mrs. Cammack, Mrs. C. B. Mc Nair, Mr. and Mrs. Stiggins, Miss Bessie Galloway and Miss Dixie Hill, not only for the immediate results, but for the inauguration of this helpful and beneficial work.
Mrs. R. A. Crim, who has been the guest of Miss Eleanor Upmeyer, has returned to Jacksonville.
IMprovements MADE IN THE MAITLAND SCHOOL
Repairs and remodeling of the schoolhouse are practically finished. A partition has been put up through the auditorium to provide for the fourth room which will be needed this winter. This partition is composed of movable doors, which can be opened in such a way that the two rooms will be available for auditorio um purposes. The stage will also be left. By this means it will be pos. sible to have a four-room school and an auditorium without putting any addition to the building. The lighting, which has proved in adequate for evening entertainments has been improved by the dropping of the lights, the installation of two extra lights in the auditorium and the placing of an open shade over the stage light. The School Trustees have purchased a set of The World Bookfor ref. erence work in the school. Mrs. Rencher of Orwin Manor, formerly a teacher in Ocoee, has been engaged to teach the fifth and sixth grades, Miss Mamie Fugate will continue to have the seventh and eighth and Miss Lena Fugate the primary. The fourth teacher has not yet been engaged. The Eatonville school has been wired for electricity and when city water is installed in the Maitland school the pumping system will be moved over there.
INJURED CHILD IMPROVING
The infant son of Mrs. Maud Small, who was badly cut in an automobile accident last Wednesday, is reported as doing well. The car, which was driven by Mrs. Walker Small, ran into a tree on Horatio Avenue and the child was thrown through the windshield, cutting his head very se verely. Several stitches had to be taken.
Mrs. John Russell and family are visiting in Jacksonville.
Only Damage Due to Falling Trees and Rising Waters.
In the storm last week, Maitland was not as badly hit as many of the surrounding towns. A tree on Ho: ratio Avenue was uprooted and fell across the street, blocking traffic, and some scattered oaks and pines fell. The streets were covered with fallen limbs and leaves. Some damage was done to roofs, but there were no accidents and no severe damage was done.
Perhaps the most serious conse: quence will prove to be the rise of water in the lakes and streams. The new made ground around Lake Lily is under water as is also the sidewalk and pavement along the west side. This condition prevails throughout this section of the country. In Or. lando some streets are impassable and the highway between Orlando and Winter Park is under water and the land on either side flooded. The lakes are overflowing in many places, and the frequent showers prevent the ter from receding.
In Maitland there promises to be no real damage done by this condition, as the natural drainage is so good in most places, but the question of drainage and prevention of damage in such storms as sweep over Florida occasionally is one that must be constantly borne in mind.
MAITLAND AUxiliary KEEPs. Up GOOD ATTENDANCE
At the July meeting of the Mait. land Auxiliary there were twenty-one members present, and fifteen garments were finished. Luncheon was served by the committee, Mrs. Stiggins, Mrs. Waters and Mrs. Marsh. Much amusement was furnished by Mrs. Thompsons parrot, which entertained the meeting with its clever tricks.
An appeal was made for subscrip. tions for the Childrens Home Society of Jacksonville, which is in great need of funds. Mrs. Cammack will receive donations.

SUMMER ACTIVITIES
There used to be a legend current among winter tourists to Florida that from May to November the natives hibernateda contradictory term that, but the best to express the mean: ingand waited in a state of torpor for the return of cool weather and the northern visitors. If this were ever the case, the activities manifest this summer in Maitland show that it is no longer true. Chief among these activities is the Vacation Bible School, which has just completed a week of intensive work. The directors, teachers and pupils must have all been in a keen mental condition to put through in such a short time the amount of work which the program last Friday evening showed had been accomplished. And how much better for our children to be thus using their brains to their mental and spiritual improvement in stead of languishing about with noth ing to occupy them. The number of books loaned at the library during July, within five of the highest monthly record for the year, is a further evidence that grown peo: ple and children alike are taking vantage of the lull in ordinary work to enjoy the reading which a busy winter makes impossible. The churches also are carrying on regular services and the Sunday
True it is that certain activities, particularly those sponsored by clubs and societies, are suspended, due part ly to the absence of their members on vacation trips, and partly to the gen eral tendency to turn to outdoor reation. But this is the case as well in the north as in the south.
Nor is it well in the heat of the summer to live up to the hurry and push of the winter months. But we can to good advantage moderate our pace sufficiently to give ourselves leis: ure for the annual taking account of stock, both mental and material, which every individual and business should take, and yet carry on such activities as will prevent stagnation.
Arlington, Mass., July 20, 1926. My dear Miss Treat: How fortunate we are to have Maitland in the hands of such good people. I find myself looking forward to the News,each number making me love Maitland the more, if that were possible. Success to your paper, my kindest regards to you. Sincerely, FaNNIE. . Hutchinson.
P. S. Coming home last spring, I
found a bit of verse written during the winter in Florida: O World, I cannot hold thee close
enough, Thy winds, thy wide gray skies, Thy mists that roll and rise, World, World, I cannot hold thee
close enough.”
Long have I known a beauty in it all;
But never knew I this.
Lord, I do fear
Thoust made the world too beautiful this year.”

ANOTHER CROSSING ACCIDENT
The frightful accident which occurred at the railroad crossing by the
Inter-City Realty Company
Real Estate Prokers
MAITLAND FLORIDA Phone Winter Park 1310-
EVERYTHING IN REAL ESTATE
We have the exclusive list
ing on the most beautiful
Lake Front Properties in Maitland
ice plant in Orlando last week, when a mail train ran into the Winter Park bus and switch engine, killing the engineer and seriously injuring eight persons, has caused us all to consider again the question of unprotected or inadequately protected railroad crossings. Only a month ago, after the last accident here at the Horatio Avenue crossing, the News voiced its protest against the lack of protection provided by the railroad at the main crossings. Now we feel that our protest can best be presented by quoting the opinion expressed by the Winter Park Herald on the accident which touches Winter Park so nearly, and by giving the tion of the Orlando city government, as reported in the Orlando Sentinel.
An Unnecessary Crossing Disaster
The railroad crossing crash that took place in Orlando Wednesday was entirely avoidable as far as the Winter ParkOrlando bus was con cerned, and this does not mean that we would attach particular blame to the bus driver. The Atlantic Coast Line Railroad is to blame and the authorities of Orlando are to blame for not forcing the railroad company to place automatic crossing gates on this crossing as well as the Orange avenue crossing farther down, long before this time.
It is difficult to see an approaching train within a hundred yards of either crossing and both crossings are steep and badly built, with the result that a motor car cannot cross them quickly.
Only recently has the railroad com: pany placed a flagman at the crossing where the accident occurred, but even a flagman cannot see much farther along the curving track than the ap: proaching motorist. What the flag. man was doing in this instance, we do not know, but that doesnt waive the blame that belongs to the railroad Company.
We are without information as to whether or not the railroad company has ever been requested to place prop. er crossing safeguards at these two crossings over which there is almost a constant stream of motor traffic. We do know, however, that they have been appealed to, to place gates, warning signals or other safeguards at Fairbanks avenue and two other crossings in Winter Park, and that they have thus far successfully side. stepped the issue.
Most railroads are glad to go to
considerable expense to protect human life at their grade crossings. We judge from the action of the Atlantic Coast Line in this case that it feels that the obligation is on the traffic to keep out of its way. Most emphat: ically this is not the case. Vehicles and pedestrians have legal rights over railroads at regular crossings and the Atlantic Coast Line will be reminded of this fact before it finishes a settle. ment of the damage claims occasioned by this terrible accident.
When a railroad persistently fails to protect traffic at dangerous crossings, over which fast trains pass, and especially from concealed curves, it is just as guilty of criminal negligence as is one of its dispatchers when he sends two trains together.
There are three crossings in Winter Park that are deadly in their dangerous character. Everyone knows them and it isnt necessary therefore to point them out. These crossings should be guarded by alarm bells or gates. Aged men as flagmen, with poor eye. sight and otherwise infirm, are not competent to take care of such crossings especially when through trains pass at a high rate of speed as they do in Winter Park. Sooner or later the Orlando disaster will be duplicated in this city if steps are not taken to force the railroad company to properly safeguard the three crossings mentioned. The Herald hopes that the local authorities will call upon the railroad company to immediately provide such measures of safety at the local crossings, before it is too lateWinter Park Herald.
Despite the fact that there is a state law and also an old city ordinance, both of which forbid the running of a train over or on a street in Orlando at a speed greater than 12 miles an hour, City Solicitor C. O. Andrews had drafted a proposed ordinance that covers the situation more explicitly.
This ordinance, Mayor L. M. Autrey stated yesterday, will be submit ted to the city commission tomorrow morning for their consideration. It is expected that it will pass on first read:
The ordinance is to be offered to the city commissioners for their consideration in an effort to eliminate grade crossing accidents, it was stated. The penalty for violation of this proposed ordinance...is a fine not exceed. ing 250 or 30 daysimprisonment.Orlando Sentinel.

THE MAITLAND NEws
Published Weekly by THE MATLAND NEws Co, MATLAND, ORANGE County, FLORIDA
Volume I
AUGUST 14, 1926
NUMBER 15
ONE HUNDRED DOLLAR FINE
One hundred dollars is the fine im: posed for destroying white Way lights.
On Friday night some rowdies drove through town shooting up the White Way lights, and hit three in their progress. The town authorities consider this an act of vandalism and lawlessness, without excuse or reason, and propose to punish any such infraction of the law to the full extent of the penalty.
AFTER FOUR YEARS
Four years ago a gasoline tank and four bags of mule mash disappeared one Saturday night from Mr. Dear. borns woodshed. Last Friday night M. C. Bryan, town marshall, raided a still northeast of town and brought in among other things a gasoline tank corresponding to the one lost by Mr. Dearborn. Through information gleaned from various sources, its his tory during that period has been well established. All that Mose fell down on was the mash, chicken feed being the present contents of the tank.
By the way, the Maitland police department has been busy lately, seven arrests were made last Sunday.
EFFECTS OF STORM PAST
The signs of damage done by the storm have been removed except in the case of some property owners who have not yet cleared up their property. While the water in the lakes and streams is still high, most of the muddy spots on the roads have dried up, and there seems to have been little damage done.
MAITLAND SIGNS TO be REPAINTED
The two Maitland signs at the north and south limits of the town are being redecorated and put in order. Both these signs were in bad condition owing to constant exposure to weather and the one at the south has been down since the storm when it was blown from its stadnard.
WHITE WAY LIGHTED THrough ALTAMONTE
The White Way which runs from the south boundry of Orlando to north line of Orange County has now been extended through Seminole County into Altamonte, with a short gap between the north corporate limits of Maitland and the south corporate limits of Altamonte. In this short stretch it is hoped that the property owners will before long put in the lights, thus making the line complete. The Altamonte White Way runs from the south limits of the town to the station and is being financed from the town taxes. RICH D PASTOR PREACHES
IN PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
Rev. J. B. Gordon, pastor of the Third Presbyterian Church in Rich. mond, Virginia, preached at the evening service last Sunday in the Presby. terian Church. Mrs. Gordon was Miss May Moremen and was a ber of the first class at Rollins College. Mr. Gordon last visited Maitland twelve years ago, and preached in the Presbyterian Church, and in his congregation last Sunday were four who heard him preach at that service.
paving Assessment MONEY DUE NOW
All payments in full for paving as sessments are due this week. As the paper goes to press several payments have been made in full and as a number of property owners have signified that this is their intention it is thought that a considerable amount will be paid in before the time expires. All assessments which are not paid in full by the fourteenth will automatically go into the tenyear payment plan, the first installment being due next July.
Improvements AT MAITLAND GARAGE
A concrete platform has been built south of the Maitland Garage, which gives a much improved appearance to the establishment and provides a suit able place for washing cars and other repair work.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN SOON ON EATON VILLE ROAD
At the meeting of the County Commissioners last week J. H. Hill appeared before the commissioners ask: ing that the paving of the road through Eatonville be included in the first road building project. While the
final apportionment of roads will not
be made for several meetings, Mr. L. L. Payne and Mr. S. S. Sadler, through both of whose districts the road passes, assured Mr. Hill that they would give the matter their closest attention.
This road is of more than local im. portance, being the only road in this district included in the present paving projects and being the northernmost connecting link in the county between the state highways No. 2 and No. 3, both of which are being rebuilt at the present time.
The committee which is getting rights of way on state highway No. 2, running through Apopka is meeting with good success from such property owners as are at home. Many are away and cannot be approached until they return in the fall. This highway is to be 66 feet wide, with only one railway crossing, where the Seaboard and the A. C. L. both cross the road at the same point. This road runs into Orlando on Kentucky Avenue, and thence on down to Kissimmee, west of the present highway and the railroad.
Road No. 3, for which the rights of way are being obtained as far south as Lily Lake, is 100 feet in width all the way south from Sanford. After the road leaves Lily Lake the direction of the road is not announced, but it will join road No. 2 somewhere be tween there and Orlando, becoming from the point of intersection part of the latter.
SERVICES AT PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH TO BE SUSPENDED FOR MONTH
There will be no services except Sunday School at the Presbyterian Church until the fourth Sunday in September, while the pastor in north on his vacation.

WEEDS
Only those who are fortunate enough to have spent a summer in Florida know the full beauty that the state can offer in luxuriant greeneryabove, below and around us. All shades and tones of green are here, covering ugly objects and tempering the brilliance of the sunlight.
But with this beauty comes one drawback – often this abundance grows into a riot which overruns fences and mars the neatness of our roadsides. Only by constant attention can we keep this growth of vegetation under control. The town authorities do what they can, but funds are always low this time of year and there has been much extra work to be done on roads and bridges since the storm.
Cannot the property owners undertake to clean up their own roadsides? Those who are away do not realize the demoralized appearance that comes with the growth of weeds. In many cities the work is done by the city and assessed to the property-owners but Maitland has not yet taken that step. How much better it would be if each one would take a personal responsi bility and pride in the matter and relieve the already overworked street committee from this added burden. They are doing what they can and will cooperate further by getting

4] THE MAITLAND NEWS BUSINESS AND RELIGION and mean No, say Yes and mean Yes These things God hath joined to: COMBINED On the other hand business helps gether, work and worship, religion and
By W. R. G. Orwick
We hear in many quarters today that religion and other activities of life will not mix. We believe that this is a mistaken idea and that a different and much better attitude should be assumed if we are to keep our position in the rank and file of the nations.
we are admonished to be Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord.” No idler can be a hightype Christian. God intended we should not be slothful in business, at the same time fervent in spirit, thus serving the Lord. And we can serve him best this way. Industry has more blessings than idleness. It is conducive to health, wealth, happiness, and, if honestly pursued, to growth in Christian Character.
The relation between religion and business is not one of antagonism. Men plead the press of business as an excuse for want of interest in spiritual things. But let us remember that to be a first rate business man does not involve being a fourth or fifth rate Christian. In order to enrich oneself at trade, it is not necessary to starve oneself in religion. Work and worship are not opposed.
The relation between business and religion is not one of separation. Business does not require a man when he closes the church door behind him on Sunday to say good-bye to his religion for another week. It is not true that Sunday is the day for religion. Religion has business with business. Business has business with religion.
The relation between business and religion is one of combination. Not slothful in business, at the same time fervent in spirit” That religion is worthless which leaves out business. If a man will not work, neither shall he eat.” If a man provides not for his own household, he is an infidel, and has denied the faith. That business is wicked which leaves out religion. It will cheat, and bribe, and crush the poor. The only way is the combina tion of the two.
There are ways in which godliness helps business. "Godliness is profit able in all things.” Godliness makes a man honest. Godliness makes a man prudent and thoughtful. Godliness makes a man firm and decided. A Christian must be able to say No

white way RESTAURANT CLOSED FOR REPAIRS
The White Way Restaurant closed this week and will reopen about Sept. 15th. The place is to be entirely done over and remodeled. A tile floor will be put in and more tables added, thus enlarging the capacity of the restaurant. The lunch room also will be rearranged, with the counters placed in the form of a horse shoe, giving more space for customers.
The restaurant, which opened for business on Christmas Eve last winter has had a remarkable year, far beyond the expectations of the management. Mrs. Manning has now gone north to make arrangements for taking care of the increased business which they expect to have this coming winter.
Not only is the financial success great, but the restaurant ranks high as to its sanitary condition. The state inspector who has recently looked over the establishment rated it at 94%, the % lacking to give it the perfect mark being due to a structural defect in the building which is to be remedied immediately.
LONGwood state BANK OPENED
Longwoods first banking institu. tion, the Longwood State Bank, opened its doors to the public Mon: day afternoon for the first time, telegraphic permission having been received from the state authorities allowing the officials to do so. The bank is capitalized at 20,000, and bids fair to develop into one of the strongest financial institutions in the county. Officers of the bank are C. W. Entzminger, president and chairman of the board of directors, J. E. Walker, first vice-president and cashier, and B. J. Overstreet, second vice-president. The directors are C. . Entzminger, chairman, B. J. Overstreet, J. E. Walker, L. J. Slade and J. H. Hartley. Mr. Entzminger and Mr. Walker are well known to the people of the county, the former having recently resigned as county commissioner after a loyal service of thirteen years, and the latter being mayor of Longwood. (Continued on Page 4)
PROCLAMATION
I, E. A. Upmeyer, by virtue of the authority vested in me as mayor of the Town of Lake Maitland, Florida, do hereby proclaim:

CONDITIONS GOOD IN GEORGIA
Mr. E. A. Upmeyer, mayor of Maitland and President of the Bank of Maitland, who has recently returned from a business trip to At lanta, says that there is a better out. look for farm crops of all kinds in Georgia than there has been for six years and that business and financial conditions are excellent. Incidentally he reports that Georgia can outdo Florida when it comes to lightning and rain storms, as he encountered one of the worst ones he has ever experienced, in Atlanta, 2.37 inches of rain falling in an hour.
OFFICERS OF ORANGE COUNTY C. OF C. ENTERTAINed by MAITLAND CHAMBER
At the regular monthly luncheon and meeting of the Maitland Chamber of Commerce held at the White Way Restaurant, August 12, C. T. Bick. ford, assistant secretary of the Orange County Chamber of Commerce, and J. G. Wheldon and A. T. Coith of the Orange County and Orlando Chambers, were present and spoke of the work being done by the County Chamber. Mr. Wheldon, who is Industrial and Agricultural Secretary, spoke of his plan to bring industries to the various communities in the county, and Mr. Coith, who is on the Beautification Commission, told of the county nurseries which are at the dis posal of any town or individual want ing to make plantings on or in sight of the highway. Mr. Bickford ex plained the plan of cooperation be tween the Orange County and Or. lando Chambers now that Karl Leh. mann has become Secretary of both bodies, by which each takes charge of certain aspects of work, the publicity being handled for the two together.
After considerable discussion on the subject of the unkept condtion of the roadsides due to the overgrowth of weeds, it was decided to endorse a Clean-up Week and to ask the property owners and residents to cooperate in cleaning up their premises. The details were left to the Executive Committee to work out.
About thirty people were present at the meeting. Announciment was made that the next meeting on Aug. 26th, will be an evening meeting, at which time the various committees will report on the work done by them through the summer.
Gasoline STOVE EXPLODEs
A gasoline stove in the home of K. N. McPherson exploded, causing considerable damage in the kitchen, where a window was broken and fire broke out. The fire department was
called, but the flames were extin. guished by workmen on the place be fore the department arrived.

CLEAN-UP WEEK
The Mayors Proclamation, designating the first week of September as Clean-up Week, is heartily wel comed by the News.
The first week of the first fall month is a most appropriate time for this action. To those of us who came from the north, the odor of burning leaves always brings to mind a crisp autumn day, the fields clean and brown after the harvesting of the crops, the trees bare of leaves, the weeds and roadside flowers cut down, and all outdoor activities turned to: ward cleaning up preparatory to the rigors of winteran interesting but
sad labor.
But here in the south what a dif. ferent aspect does the fall cleaning have. Here it is preparatory to an active, not a dormant season. We are simply clearing out one period of growth to make way for another With how much greater energy and enthusiasm should we attack this work, since it means making ready for that season of the year in which our lives are so filled with both work and pleasure that there is no time for doing odd jobs" around the place.
So let us respond wholeheartedly to our Mayors proclamation. Let us help the town to clean up the road. sides; let us prepare our own property for winter planting; let us repair and

paint our buildings; let us put our houses and grounds in perfect order so that our town may be more beauti ful than it has ever been.

WHITE way posts KNOCKED DOWN
Many are the vicissitudes of the White Way posts along the highway. Last week a post near Lake Faith was cut neatly of just above the ground one evening by an unknown auto, and on Sunday a post near the south end of town was knocked over by a car which skidded and demolished a Ford as well as the post. No one was in jured.

STATE ELECTRICAL LAWS TO BE STRENGTHENED
J. H. Bennett, who attended the Electragists' meeting in Tampa last Wednesday and Thursday, reports that a new set of ordinances governo ing electric construction in the state of Florida were adopted at this convention. These, if enacted into law by the legislature will require a state examination for all electrical contractors and journeymen, who if they pass the examination conducted by the State Examining Board can, by paying the vocational tax, do work in any municipality in the state. This is considered a good thing for the electrician and each community will be protected by being assured of having men who know how to do work properly and according to code. A local inspector will have jurisdiction over a five mile radius outside the city limits where there is not already an inspector. A state inspector will have charge of outlying districts.
In a business where life and property are at stake, it is necessary that there should be competent men on the job, so this seems to be a wise act of legislation, and it is expected that it will become a law at the next meeting of the legislature.

NUMBER 17
Maitland Lumber Company REBUILDING
The Maitland Lumber Company started building a new shed to take the place of the one which burned last March. A temporary structure was put up immediately after the fire but this will be a large double shed, sixty-two by seventy-six feet. There will be a general and private office and a display room. The offices have been in the Nelson store building since the fire.
The shed will have a much larger capacity than the former shed and will be equipped with modern facilities for handling lumber direct from the cars to the storage bins.
Another improvement in the lumber yard is the new siding which has just been put in. This runs through the yard past the new shed giving plenty of room for cars to stand while unloading.
These improvements will be of great importance to the conduct of the business making it possible to car. ry it on in an efficient and satisfactory manner, without any of the inconveniences and drawbacks which often at tend an enterprise that does not have the bulk of large city business to uphold it.
Greenwood GARDEN LOTS SOLD
The latest sales reported in Greenwood Gardens are two lots recently sold to northern people. These lots are in the first division of the Gardens, one on the highway and one on Gamewell Avenue, both near the houses which have been built by Mr. R. A. Wheeler and Mr. A. B. Row. land.
MAITLAND AUXILIARY COMPLETES 81 GARMENTS
At the last luncheon and sewing meeting of the Maitland Auxiliary, which was held at the Library on Fri. day, eighty-one garments were finished. This leaves only seventy to complete to finish the quota of three hundred which the Auxiliary has set for its summer work, as against two hundred sixteen made last year.
construction progressing on STATE ROAD NO. 3
Near Elder Springs is located the camp of the Lake Worth Construction Company which is clearing and grad. ing Road No. 3 from Sanford to the Orange County line. The work com: menced at the foot of Park Avenue in Sanford with a mile and a half to be done in the town limits. Six miles have now been cleared and two and a half graded. It is expected that two miles a month will be completed but there has been much delay from rains. Since the work commenced the first of June there have been only seven days without rain. In very wet weather the mules are unable to get any foothold in the mud. If the work proceeds at the estimated rate the Maitland line should be reached in January.
The right of way is one hundred feet wide, thirty feet wider than road No. 2, and is being cleared from side to side. The grade is sixty feet wide, the twenty feet on either side being used to furnish filler. Trees are pulled up by the roots, piled and burned. The land is then all ploughed, grubbed to remove all roots and ploughed again with a double gang disk. Eighty mules and sixty three men are on the pay roll and forty more men started in this week. The mules may well be said to be on the payroll, as their feed costs 75.00 a day. This is a great undertaking and being carried out on a large scale and when finished will be the finest road in Florida.
PARSONAGE
On last Friday evening, the Rev. and Mrs. Orwick were surprised by their Maitland friends who came to spend the evening with them, bring: ing a great assortment of groceries and table linen to stock the parson. age cupboards. The entire community was there, all churches being resented. The affair which was got ten up by Mrs. J. M. Brown, Mrs. John Rice and Miss Margaret Rus: sell was a great success.
Earlier in the week Mr. Orwicks parishioners at Conway had stocked
1926 ASSESSMENT ROLL TOTALs OVER 33,000,000
3,320,140.00 is the total amount of Maitland property according to the 1926 assessment roll which was accepted by the town council on Monday. At the same time the millage was discussed and a probable rate set tled on. The general millage is six as against eight mills last year, with one mill for building fund, one for water and fire protection and three for paying interest on street, park and water works bonds.
The three million dollars supposedly represents the full value of the property, the assessment being based on a hundred per cent valuation, but there is probably no case in which the property is valued as high as the true market value. Most of the property is assessed as acreage as very few of the subdivisions were filed before January.
Great care has been given by the Assessor, L. L. Coudert, and the Tax Commission, C. J. Woodward, J. H. Hill and K. N. McPherson, to make the assessment fair and equitable. As sessment maps in quarter section tracts have been made on which all proper. ties are listed. These maps are open for public inspection now at Mr. Cou. derts office. Later they will be filed at the Town Hall.
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE HOLDS SOCIAL MEETING
Notices have been sent out for an evening meeting of the Chamber of Commerce to be held at the school house Friday evening. There will be a musical program, dancing and refreshments. Everyone is invited. This is the first social meeting that has been held this summer.

LETs CLEAN UP
Winter Park is already starting on a program of cleaning up for the winter and there is a marked contrast between the road this side and the other side of the town signpost. It gives you a satisfied and happy feeling just to drive along the road from the turn by the roadside to the golf links. And if we who look with prejudiced eyes and find it hard to acknowledge that even our prosperous neighbor is really ahead of us in any way can see the difference and are forced to admit it, how must it affect the casual passerby who does not know the hidden excellence of Maitland? There is nothing that adds so much to the value of a town or a piece of property proportionately to the money invested as a little cleaning up. A house that has stood neglected and unnoticed for years may be sold offhand by the virtue of a bit of paint. We can greatly increase the value of our property if we will heed the may ors advice and do what he asks us and perhaps a little more. So from a selfish point of view if for no other reason let us plan now to celebrate Labor Day by donning our overalls and cleaning our hoes, and begin the week well.

CONDITIONS IN CALCUTTA
Mrs. Henry S. Thompson has sent in the following extracts from an in teresting letter written by her daughterin-law who lives in India, describe ing conditions there.
Have I written you anything about the riots in Calcutta?
There have been four or five out. breaks lately between the Mohamme dans and Hindus. As a usual thing it is over a cow. The Hindus worship the cowan orthodox Hindu wont wear leather shoes wont eat beef wont sell beef. The Mohammedans sacrifice the cows and they like to parade their religious rites under the Hindu nose. The Hindu retaliates by playing music (jazz) in front of the Mohammedan mosques and then hell breaks loose. Europeans are never involved.
Have you read anything about Mrs. Naide? She is replacing Ghandi as an Indian leader. She is very active at present, speaking in so many places. Her theme seems to be recon. of the Hindu and Mohamme.

SCHOOL BEGINS SEPTEMBER 13
The School Trustees announce that school will open on September 13 if the new desks arrive in time. These desks are to be movable chairs, the kind that are being used generally in the most upto-date schools, and will be of especial value here, as they can be moved to clear the hall when it is needed for assembly purposes.
PULLMAN RESERVATIONS FILLED
It is reported by the Pullman of fice in Chicago that all reservations on the Dixie trains as now made up are taken for November and December. It is expected, however, that further equipment will be added to sup: ply the heavy traffic already certain for that season.
METHODIs. CHURCH beats Town
Not content to wait until Clean-up Week the people of the Methodist Church came out en masse Tuesday and cleaned up the church property and the parsonage grounds. This is a fine example to the rest of the town and should help to arouse enthusiasm in the Clean-up Week program.
HOUSES FOR RENT
There has been quite a little moving in Maitland lately and several houses are vacant at present.
CORRECTION
A mistake was made last week in announcing the house that Mr. R. A. Posey is occupying. He is living in Mr. J. D. Baggetts house on Lily Lake.
TRIP TO MT. PLYMOUTH
Some of the women of the Auxile iary with their families enjoyed a trip to Mt. Plymouth on Tuesday.

Volume I
SOCIAL EVENING OF CHAMBER OF COMMERCE WIDELY ATTENDED
One hundred and fifty people at tended the evening meeting of the Chamber of Commerce at the school. house last Friday evening. Invita. tions were extended to everyone and many who are not members turned out. The meeting opened with a short business meeting at which there was a report from the booklet committee, recommending an eight-page letter with pictures of the town and a copy of the airplane map as well as a small amount of descriptive matter, an explanation of the proposed plan of having a booth on the highway next win. ter where oranges can begiven away, and an appeal for a wholehearted response to the mayors Clean-up Week proclamation.
After the business meeting vocal selections were given by Mrs. Sullivan, Mrs. A. B. Rowland, Miss Eleanor Upmeyer and Mr. K. N. McPherson, accompanied by Mrs. McPherson. Mrs. Henry S. Thompson exhibited the trained parrot which she has this summer which talked and sang to the audience. Ice cream and cake and punch were served during the evening, and there was dancing after the other entertainment was over.
The hall was beautifully decorated with fall flowers and ferns. The entertainment was under the direction of a committee with Mrs. C. N. Beecher as chairman, Miss Upmeyer being in charge of the musical program.
GENEROUS RESPONSE TO Town FROM NOTE owners
As the notes which the Town of Maitland gave four years ago to raise money for paving the road around the east side of Lily Lake and the dou. ble road along Maitland Avenue through the center of town are due in 1927, the town has written to the note owners asking if they will take 25% of the value of the notes and renew them for the balance. It was reported at the last council meeting that these appeals had been met in a most generous manner and that all who had been heard from up to date had agreed to this arrangement.
SEPTEMBER , 1926
PROCLAMATION
I, E. A. Upmeyer, by virtue of the authority vested in me as mayor of the Town of Lake Maitland, Florida, do hereby proclaim:
The Week of Sept. 6th to 12th to be
Property owners and residents are requested to observe this proclamation and arrange, during the week above mentioned, to cut and remove all weeds from fence lines and yards, to repair fences and buildings, to clear out all rubbish, and to otherwise improve the appearance of their property.
Rubbish deposited in piles at the curb line will be removed by the town truck.
The cooperation of all citizens is urged in order that we may maintain our pride in Maitland as a delightful and attractive town to live in and that we may present it in its best form to the host of tourists and winter visitors.
Signed E. A. UPMEYER. Mayor.
Attest: E. T. OWEN, Town Clerk
Town HALL GROUNDS BEING BEAUTIFIED
Work has been commenced on the grounds in front of the new munici. pal building. The ground has been cleared of weeds and a grass drive planted in front of the engine house. The Bermuda which is being used for this purpose makes a very firm drive so that it will be a help in getting the engine out quickly as well as an im provement to the looks of the grounds. It will not be possible to plant a come plete lawn this year but the ground is being prepared to plant Italian rye as soon as the weather is cool enough.
A row of poinsettia has been plant. cd along the north side of the lot and a hedge of hibiscus along the south side and the front. This work is being done under the direction of Mr. J. G. Friedland, chairman of the street commission.
The old jail building has also been torn down and the blocks will be used to build a pump house on the well lot. Where the jail stood a movable
NUMBER 18
COUNCIL ADVERTISES FOR BIDS ON PAVING
September 21 has been set as the day on which bids will be received on a 95,000.00 program for paving, curb, gutter, storm sewers and side. walks. This includes all streets which have been advertised, that is, the first section of Greenwood Gardens, a number of streets in the south end of town and the gaps which have been left in the business district Inter Street, and Packwood from Independence to Vanderpool.
A further special assessment of 7, 000.00 for sidewalks was authorized at the meeting August 26. This will be for sidewalks on the east side of Independence Land, on Packwood from Inter Street to Central Avenue, on the west side of Maitland Avenue from the sidewalk in front of the post office building to that around Lily Lake, and on other downtown streets.
The Council directed the town at torney to draw up an ordinance requiring that all dry toilets within a reasonable distance from the water mains shall be removed. As this might cause a hardship on certain land own. ers, arrangements will be made by which those who cannot afford to fit nance such an undertaking at present may receive help from the town, which will finance them on an easy payment plan.
The town will make all connections on a standard price or unit basis and will supervise the installation up to the meter.
The matter of taking out liability insurance for the members of the fire department was discussed but no action was taken.
Arrangements were made to clean up the town property during Clean up week, and beautification plans were discussed. It is the plan of the Council to plant a small nursery by the shore of Lily Lake where plants can be raised for town planting. This will be a good place for a nursery and will not be objectionable pending the time when a real plan of beau. tification can be worked out there.
hose rack will be erected on which the fire hose can be spread to dry.

The Maitland News notes with in terest, that the Clean-up Week idea is being generally followed at this time all through this section of Florida. Clermont has come in first, her cleanup week being over now and having been carried through in an efficient and organized manner. Orlando has appointed a twoweek period, the first two weeks in September. Doubtless other communities will follow this lead if they have not already taken steps in that direction.
It behooves Maitland to show that she can not only inaugurate but carry through the work of this week in such a manner that we can show the same results that Clermont has achieved and that Orlando will doubtless attain to. This can be done if we all help. Our town authorities will do all they can, but they have not the same resources either in men or funds that the larger cities have, and it is only by the aid of individual effort that we can achieve.
A GOOD UNDERSTANDING SAVES A MISUNDERSTANDING”
There is considerable confusion in the minds of most of us as to the reg ulations and practices of the utility companies, and consequently misun derstandings arise and people feel that they are not being given a fair deal This is a natural result of the fact that we are more or less at the mercy of these companies and when we do not understand their rulings we are suspicious of their motives. This at titude of mind can be changed only by a complete knowledge of the methods of the companies which we find in the case of the Florida Public Service Company, they are ready to present to us, as the following letter shows. This company is also endeavo oring to get in close touch with Maitland by delegating local people to look after their interests, having appointed

Dear Madam: We are glad to give you the information requested in your letter of August 14th as to our methods of handling the electric light busio ness in this territory and appreciate your cooperation in passing this in formation on to the people in and around Maitland.
In applying for service the prospective customer should make application for connection either through notific cation of the Orlando office by phone or mail or through Mr. J. H. Bennett of the Maitland Electric Company. Before service is connected a deposit of an estimated twomonths bill is required. This deposit has no connec: tion with the meter itself, which is furnished free by the Company, but is required as a guarantee of payment of bills. The requiring of a deposit is the general practice of utility come panies throughout the United States inasmuch as it is not possible to bill a customer for electric service until after he has had 30 days use of it plus the time required to make up the bill and deliver it to him. This requires about six weeks, which together with the 15 days allowed for payment of bill, allows the customer to get two monthsservice before he has made any payment. The Company pays interest on all of the customers money during the time that it is held as a deposit.
Meters are read once a month and bills sent out allowing ten days from the date of the bill in which to pay. Bills may be paid either at the Bank of Winter Park, the Bank of Maitland or at the Orlando office at 100 E. Central Avenue. The owner of a building or house is not liable for the bills of the tenant unless he specifically contracts for the service under his own name. When a customer leaves, he should notify this Company either through Mr. Bennett or to the Orlan. do office direct of his desire for dis. connection. The meter will be read, service discontinued, and his deposit returned with interest after the final
bill has been paid.
As stated above, bills are due and payable within ten days from the date of bill. If the account has not been received in this office at the expira. tion of that time, a second notice is sent out notifying the customer of the

Company on August 23, and it is further stated that the East Coast Bank and Trust Company, also of Daytona, will reopen during the first week in September. Dispatches from Daytona say that the closing of both these banks recently was brought about by oversupply of frozen assetsand not by any adverse local conditions. It is stated that these resumptions are on the plan of frozen depositsthat is being pursued in the case of other banks which are being reorganized and a still larger number of lately closed banks will similarly resume business.
The formal announcement of the American Bank and Trust Company of Daytona said that they would resume general banking and trust business and that it had temporarily closed its doors on June 2 in order to conserve the interests of its depositors and stockholders; also that since then the situation has been satisfactorily worked out as was anticipated, and the Hon. Ernest Amos, Comptroller of the State of Florida, has authorized the opening of the bank with arrange. ments being made for the issuing of certificates of deposit on the basis of the depositors agreement.
At an enthusiastic meeting of stockholders of the East Coast Bank and Trust Company on August 17 a new board of directors was elected to take charge of the institution when it reopens on Tuesday, September . It is stated that almost 100 per cent of the depositors have agreed to let their deposits remain frozenfor a period of six months. Outside capi. tal has been interested and the group of stockholders is increased. Over four-fifths of the 268 stockholders in the institution participated in the meeting.
The Bank of Osceola County at Kissimmee, Fla, has also reopened after being closed for five weeks, and the confidence in the situation was
immediately shown by the receipt of 100,000 in deposits in the first six hours of business. It is stated that when the bank closed it had 50,000 capital stock and 32,000 surplus, but the State Bank Examiner listed 27, 000 worth of paper in the surplus as questionable. Thereupon stockhold. ers assessed themselves for 25,000 for surplus, but since then the amount of questionable paper has been reduced to 15,000. Furthermore, they have increased the banks capital to 100,000 paid in, and a majority of the depositors have agreed to accept their deposits in installments for a pe. riod of 18 months.”

Description
The new Downtown Orlando Post Office building, located at 51 East Jefferson Street, in 1958. The original post office was housed in the Federal Building, located 44 East Central Boulevard in Downtown Orlando, Florida, from 1917 to 1941. In 1935, when James Beggs, Jr. became the postmaster, he began petitioning to move the post office from its Central Boulevard and Court Avenue location to a more spacious building. In 1939, St. James Catholic Church sold a plot of land on Jefferson Street for the new building. The building was designed by Louis A. Simon in the Northern Italian Palazzo Revival-style, and was constructed by J. P. Cullen and Sons. The new building opened in 1941 and housed the post office, the courthouse, and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) offices. The building was named an Orlando Historic Landmark in 1989. However, it was eventually sold back to the St. James Church. In 2003, the building was renovated and came under joint ownership by both the church and the federal government. Today, the building retains its post office services but also includes offices for the Catholic Diocese.

Envelope to Mayor Carl T. Langford (April 23, 1979)
Description
This envelope originally contained a letter written to Mayor Carl T. Langford a year before he stepped down as Mayor of Orlando. Mayor Langford was a popular mayor, known for his political irreverence and sense of humor. He presided as mayor from 1967 to 1980, during the city's greatest period of growth following the arrival of Walt Disney World. His most important legacy was the Orlando International Airport.

Description
Collection of digital images, documents, and other records depicting the history of Orange County, Florida. Series descriptions are based on special topics, the majority of which students focused their metadata entries around.
Mosquito County, a massive county south of St. Johns County that consisted of much of Central Florida was established in 1824. In 1845, Mosquito County was renamed Orange County when Florida earned statehood. This new county included present-day Osceola County, Seminole County, Lake County, and Volusia County. Orange County was named so for the area's major fruit crop: oranges. The area was devastated by a freeze during the winter of 1895-1896, which allowed for subsequent land speculators to initiate a land boom in Florida, with Orlando becoming a "boom town." Seminole County separated from Orange on April 25, 1913 and was named for the Seminole tribes that originally inhabited the area.
In 1926, Orange County was hit by a hurricane and then by the stock market crash and Great Depression beginning in 1929. Central Florida recovered in the late 1930s and experienced steady growth until 1967. In 1971, Walt Disney World was completed, signaling the beginning of the transformation of the Greater Orlando area into one of the world's major tourist destinations. The citrus industry in the county peaked in the early 1970s, but many groves were destroyed by several freezes during the early 1980s.

Alternative Title
Wanted Persons in Orange County
Subject
Orange County (Fla.)
Sheriffs--Florida
Law enforcement--Florida
Police--Florida
Fugitives from justice--United States
Warrants (Law)--United States
Crime--Florida
Description
The Orange County book of wanted persons from 1882 to 1889, during the tenure of two sheriffs: Sheriff Thomas "Long Tom" Shine who served from January 27, 1877, until February 15, 1885, and Julias Caesar Anderson, who served until his death on January 20, 1901. Sheriff Anderson saw a very different Orange County than his predecessors, because railroads had doubled the local population in five years. While most of the wanted fugitives are from Central Florida, there were also warrants from across Florida. There were also warrants from different states, such as California, Alabama, New York, and Georgia. The reward prices varied from suspect to suspect, but most were within the range of 50 dollars, although some were as high as 450 dollars. While there are no more warrants issued from Florida after 1889, there were national warrants dating to 1897. This book was donated to the Museum of Seminole County History by Sheriff John Polk, who was the dean of Florida sheriffs from 1969 to 1990.

Description
Collection of digital images, documents, and other records depicting the history of Seminole County, Florida. Series descriptions are based on special topics, the majority of which students focused their metadata entries around.
Mosquito County, a massive county south of St. Johns County that consisted of much of Central Florida was established in 1824. In 1845, Mosquito County was renamed Orange County when Florida earned statehood. This new county included present-day Osceola County, Seminole County, Lake County, and Volusia County. Orange County was named so for the area's major fruit crop: oranges. The area was devastated by a freeze during the winter of 1895-1896, which allowed for subsequent land speculators to initiate a land boom in Florida, with Orlando becoming a "boom town."
Seminole County separated from Orange on April 25, 1913, and was named for the Seminole tribes that originally inhabited the area. In the early-1900s, Seminole County was known for its agricultural development and close proximity to shipping lanes. By the 1920s, citizens in Seminole County, particularly in Sanford, soon shifted their interests in making the area a tourist destination.

Longwood Collection
Subject
Longwood (Fla.)
Description
Collection of digital images, documents, and other records depicting the history of Longwood, Florida. Series descriptions are based on special topics, the majority of which students focused their metadata entries around.
The first European and Euro-American settlers arrived in present-day Longwood in the early 1870s. Its town founding settlers were John Neill Searcy of Tennessee and Edward Warren Henck of Boston, Massachusetts, both of which arrived in 1873. Henck was a railroad businessman, hotel owner, and real estate promoter, and he was later elected the first Mayor of Longwood in 1885. Henck was instrumental in bringing the South Florida Railroad to Longwood.
Although Longwood enjoyed growth from the railroad, the Great Freeze of 1894-1895 caused many citizens to leave Central Florida. However, the area experience growth again during the 1910s and 1920s. In 1923, the Town of Longwood was incorporated as a city. Longwood experienced decline during the Great Depression, and the city failed to dis-incorporate after its bank failed in 1932.
Growth returned to Longwood during World War II, thanks to the development of the Naval Air Station (NAS) Sanford and the Orlando Air Army Base, which was later renamed the Naval Training Center (NTC) Orlando. Prosperity increased again the 1960s and 1970s, due to the expansion of the military industry, the establishment of the space industry in nearby Brevard County, and the opening of Walt Disney World.

Elections--Florida
Description
A newspaper article published by <em>The Central Florida Press</em> on June 20, 1930. The article discusses the runoff primary election for a state and county offices, which was held on June 24, 1930. The race for Florida Secretary of State was between Robert Andrew Gray and Henry Clay Crawford, both Democrats. Presumably, Crawford was the son of Henry Clay Crawford, who served as Secretary of State from 1902 until his death in 1929. William Monroe Igou served as interim secretary until Gray was elected in 1930. Gray served in that position until 1961.<br /><br />Other races discussed in the article include a run-over race for Seminole County Commissioner between W. S. Enztminger, C. B. Searcy, and H. E. Fuller. However, according to the article, the election had been suspended due to the withdrawal of Entzminger, leaving Searcy as the county commissioner for District 3, which consisted of the Town of Longwood.

Title
Sanford Collection
Description
The present-day Sanford area was originally inhabited by the Mayaca/Joroco natives by the time Europeans arrived. The tribe was decimated by war and disease by 1760 and was replaced by the Seminole Indians. In 1821, the United States acquired Florida from Spain and Americans began to settled in the state.
Camp Monroe was established in the mid-1830s to defend the area against Seminoles during the Seminole Wars. In 1836, the United States Army built a road (present-day Mellonville Avenue) to a location called "Camp Monroe," during the Second Seminole War. Following an attack on February 8, 1837, the camp was renamed "Fort Mellon," in honor of the battle's only American casualty, Captain Charles Mellon.
The town of Mellonville was founded nearby in 1842 by Daniel Stewart. When Florida became a state three years later, Mellonville became the county seat for Orange County, which was originally a portion of Mosquito County. Citrus was the first cash crop in the area and the first fruit packing plant was constructed in 1869.
In 1870, a lawyer from Connecticut by the name of Henry Shelton Sanford (1832-1891) purchased 12,548 acres of open land west of Mellonville. His vision was to make this new land a major port city, both railway and by water. Sitting on Lake Monroe, and the head of the St. Johns River, the City of Sanford earned the nickname of “The Gate City of South Florida.” Sanford became not only a transportation hub, but a leading citrus industry in Florida, and eventually globally.
The Great Fire of 1887 devastated the city, which also suffered from a statewide epidemic of yellow fever the following year. The citrus industry flourished until the Great Freezes of 1894 and 1895, causing planters to begin growing celery in 1896 as an alternative. Celery replaced citrus as the city's cash crop and Sanford was nicknamed "Celery City." In 1913, Sanford became the county seat of Seminole County, once part of Orange County. Agriculture dominated the region until Walt Disney World opened in October of 1971, effectively shifting the Central Florida economy towards tourism and residential development.
