The book shelf will be used to hold alhavee hooks used in the office and also the new ones that publishers send uswallm time to time.

A DIALOGUE "Goodness, I, have to take all of my books home this afternoon." "So do I, that horrid Bobby Jones who sits right behind me insisted on tapping lightly on his desk all during study period, and it worried me so that I could not get my mind on my work. "I did succeed in getting my math during study period today but as I was going through the corridors someone bumped against me so hard, that I drop ped my paper. Before I could pick it up, it had been trampled on by a dozen people." "Such people who always interfere with the right of others are not generally liked, are they?" No, nobody admires them or even thinks them smart. they only get themselves in had with the entire school. were these students talking about you? THE FRENCH CONVERSATION CLUB The French conversation club is get¬ting an introduction to the French language and learning a number of French phi aces in common use JACK KLINE HAS A BIRTHDAY PARTY Jack Kline has had a birthday—and a party! And such a party as you have never seen! You see, it was giv¬en to him by Student Council, and that organization has a way of doing things to perfection. So, of course, Jack Kline's birthday could not be passed by lightly. He was successfully trans-ported to Olivia Park under the camo¬flage of a weiner roast. Imagine Jack's surprise when he found out `twas all for him. Imagine his eyes growing round with wonder when a big brown frosted birthday cake was brought forth. But the wonder grew when he tried to cut the cake, for somehow it prooved too much of a struggle for Jack's delicate physique. After tug¬ging determinedly for a while, Jack grew snspicious. He scraped off the luscious looking icing and found—a wooden cake! Then, 'tis said, that Howard Davis made a grab for some of the icing, and discovered it was soap suds flavored with chocolate. After a good laugh at the joke, the Council brough forth a real birthday cake, and Jack's birthday was celedrated in an honest-to-goodnese way. MEMORIAL PRESENTS PLAY The music department of Memoral presented a one-act muscial comedy, "The Family Physician," in our audi-torium on November 17. The play was well directed and well acted, and cherokee thoroughly enjoyed the performance.

Once three fair Indian maidens, Daughters of Chief Watosa, Wandered from their tribal village, Wandered far into the fores:. So 7-5-)wandered, gathering flowers, Laughing gaily as they wandered, Miles away from their dominion, All unheeding of the disforest. Suddenly from behind a boulder Rushed three hears, huge. ferocious, While with screams loud and piercing Fled the maidens with their flowers. Then the maidens swiftly fleeing Saw a rock before them towering. Quickly climbed they to its summit; But the bears climbed, never pausing. In despair the maidens halted, Watched the bears come ever closer, Fell upon their knees in terror, And t he spirits heard them pleading t' When the bears neared the summit, Then the spirits showed t•wir power—Made the rocks swell, grow hher Till they towered o'er the tree tops. Then the three bears in their climbing Weaker grew, their ever weaker, Till exhausted by their struggle Fell they on the rocks beneath them So the maids with great rejoicing Made long ropes from their flowers. Holding to them, reached earth safely, Hastened to their tribal village.

Vol. I, No. 1 November 9, 1928 One Cent Mr. Grover Addresses Student Body. Mr. Grover, Professor of books at Rollins college, returned to Cherokee Wednesday, Nov. 7, to address the subject of "Education." Mr. Grover was warmly received by the students as an old friend, for he addressed us last year on the subject of "Books." In speaking of the importance of education to the success of the individual, Mr. Grover cited Herbert Hoo¬ver as an example. "Eighty per cent of the names in "Who's Who" have a college education," he said. "Every day in high school is worth $25 to each pupil, while a college education adds $55 a day to a person's value." Mr. Grover then traced the growth of public school education in America, and pointed out its tendencies. A very interesting feature was a copy of an old New England primer and horn book used in the earliest American schools. Percentages for First Period High. Grades for the first six weeks of the school year have been averaged together and the following results were obtained: A's 8%, B's 28%, C's 39%, D's 14%, E's 5%. It will be noticed that more pupils received A's than E's. More pupils received B's than D's. Fewer people got C's than they ordinarily do. Usually the percentage of C's is about 44 %. This shows that a healthy condition exists, for most of the pupils are working hard Journalism Club Reads Rare Papers Jean Pettay, of section 9-2, recently brought several old papers to school which were of great interest to the Journalism Club. One was published at the time of Lincoln's death and gave a vivid account of the assassination. This edition also contains news of the Civil War. Another is the New York Herald for April 25, 1856. This issue contains a variety of news, ranging from "most horrible murders" to "great balloon ascensions." A most interesting copy is the Saturday Evening Post for June 16, 18¬28. It is in the form of a paper instead of a magazine. The print is very fine. A rather interesting and amusing part of the Post is a collection of very dry jokes relating to the experiences of theEarl of Marlborough. In 1828, it seems to take two paragraphs to tell what could be told in two lines in 1928. 7-1 Wins P T A Attendance Picture Section 7-I has for two consecutive months received the picture offered by the P T A to the section having the largest percentage of parents present at the monthly meeting of this organization. The seventh grade this year seems to be taking the lead in nearly all of our school activities. We wonder if the eight and ninth grades are going to accept the challenge offered by Cherokee's newest class? EDITORIAL BOARD Editor-in-chief Ruth Wetherington Associate Editor Robert Cox News Editors Jean Pettay Takoohy Topakian Society Editor Martha Ruth Rathburn Literary Editor Robert Boggs Feature Editor Carolyn McKinnon Sport Editor Charles Rinehart Joke Editor Richard Marriman Circulation Donald Young Faculty Sponsor Miss Henderson EDITORIAL The editorial staff of the Cher-O-Key salutes the student body. We since the opening of school. Billy greet you confidently- confident that our undertaking will meet with your approval and confident that you give us your hearty support. We offer no, apologies for beginning on a small scale, for we believe that our modest beginning of today will culminate in a tomorrow full of glorious achievements on the part of Cherokee’s journalist. In compiling this and future editions, the staff has but one object in mind- to give wholesome publicity to Cherokee. To accomplish this objective, to give her the most complete and adequate publicity, we solicit the aid of the entire student body. We urge a continuance of your reputed spirit of co-operation. Boost your paper, boost your school, and let us all strive to make Cherokee’s newest enterprise a complete and notable success. AN APPRECIATION The staff of the Cher-O-Key wish to take this method of thanking the printing department and typing club for their splendid co-operation in making our journalistic venture possible. While the paper largely represents the efforts of the journalism club we wish the student body to know the share that these two departments are taking in our publication. We sincerely appreciate their support and willing aid. CALENDAR OF EVENTS Monday, Nov. 12: Armistice day. Holiday. Wednesday, Nov. 14: Auditorium program sponsored by section 7-7. Wednesday, Nov. 21: Auditorium program with section 7-2 in charge. MERIT LIST FLUCTUATES IN NUMBERS WEEKLY Merit cards have rivaled the Wall Street stock markets in fluctuation since the opening of school. Billy Tyree was the first student at Cherokee to receive a merit card this year. A week later, Ruth Wetherington received the second. Since that time, the awards have been steadily increasing in numbers. These cards are given weekly to some students who have attained a high excellence in scholarship. The following students have received merit cards during the week of Oct. 15-19: Dorothy Cuthberson, Mary Terhune, Ormond Powers (2), Billy Berst. Week of Oct. 22-26: Barbara Parker, Esther Hadeck (2). Helen Arendt, Roberta Barnett, Virginia Copeland, Effie Mc Gormack (2), Clifford Haughton, Billy Tyree, Irvin Marchand, Edna Parker, Newelle Clark, Howard Davis, Winifred Berst, Sara Harell, Harriet Ravencroft, Cecil Keith, Edna Hinchey, Maxine Fugate, Shan Kazarosian. On Wednesday, Oct. 31, there was an unusual situation; there were no merit cards for the preceding week. ROBERTA BARNETT SUBMITS BEST ESSAY Last week the Florida State Dental Association offered a prize of five dollars and a second prize of two dollars and a half to the ninth graders who were able to write the best compositions on the subject, "The Teeth in Relation to General Health." In Cherokee, the ninth grade students wrote their compositions under the direction of Mrs. Benton and Miss Mitchell, the English teachers. Roberta Barnett, of section 9-2, wrote the composition which was chosen to represent Cherokee; it was sent to the contest headquarters at Miami. NEWS ITEMS Ruth Wetherington of 9-3 and Shahan Kazarosian of 9-3 have made our art poster in the auditorium this year Due to the fact that Harold Hughston captain of the sergeants, has moved from Orlando, it was necessary for the council to eiect a new one. Sammie Bethea was chosen by a unanimous vote. The enrollment of the school year of 1928 has already increased from 450 in September to 495 at the present date. New pupils are entering almost daily and there is little doubt but that Cherokee will soon have as many as last year. Many of the sections are completely filled now. Cherokee has already prepared a series of auditorium programs for the year, so we are assured of having some that are interesting, entertaining, and spicy. Good ones have already been put on by sections 9-1, 8-6, 7-1, and 9-6. The Girl's Glee Clud has also lent its aid, by presenting a one-act musical comedy. SOCIETY AT CHEROKEE The fall season has been a very busy social time for the Cherokee students. Nearly every section has already engaged in some sort of social activity during the past seven weeks. Parties have been enjoyed by twelve sections, and there have been nearly an equal number of picnics. Olivia Park seems to have taken precedence over other places as a picnicking ground, and the Hallowe'en note has been dominant at the parties. The faculty have also had their share in social activities. Besides being privileged to act as sponsors at the student socials, they have had three distinct affairs of their own. Toward the end of September, Mr. and Mrs. G. S. Thompson entertained the Cherokee teachers at a picnic at Olivia Park. Miss DeLaney and Mr. and Mrs. Park were special guests at this time. The Cherokee faculty bridge club has held two meetings thus far. NEW RULING HOLDS STUDENTS IN CHECK. A new ruling, recently passed by the Board of Education, has resolved that students be excused from schools only on account of illness or for other serious matters. This ruling was passed pecause it has been increasingly noticed by the teaching force that the schools are endangered by the constant calls from different outside sources that students be excused from their classes. This, it was decided, is seriously damaging to the school system, in that interferes with systematic classroom procedure. The new ruleing purposes-to check these too frequent outside calls. SPORTS Due to the absence of the coach the major sport for boys, which is soccer, has been delayed. However, every section has organized a team. A tournament is now being conducted. It is an elimination contest. The loosers will play all other loosers and the winners all other winners. New Rules Regulate Eligibility for Sports. In keeping with some of the fundamental assumptions relative to sportmanship training and after several years of experimentation, the physical training teachers of both Junior High Schools and the Director of the schools have arrived at the following regulations: Eligibility: all pupils earning a mark of C— or above in all regular four or five hour courses and Health shall be eligble to compete in the inter-class tournaments and inter-school contests. Ineligibility: Pupils falling below the standard set above shall remain in-eligible to compete in such contests for a period of six weeks following the declaration of such ineligibility. Mrs. Harrell, president of the P.T A., recently awarded section 9-I the prize for getting 100% of their parents to join the P.T.A. The prize was a wall flower vase. Billy Davis, President of 9-I recived in the behalf of the class. The entire school is glad to see Mrs. Meyer back again, after her illness of last week. Humor Startling discoveries brought to light as a result of recent tests: A fish can swim in water because he holds his breath. A pirate is a free government where the people make their own laws. A smuggler is a government where the king rules. Before a person can become a resident of the United States, he first has to become civilized. Cherokee Observes Temperance Twenty states celebrated temperance day on October 31, carrying out the mandatory state law that the schools observe this subject. Mr. A. M. Meyer was the speaker at the Cherokee observance. He stated that temperance in a special phase of citizenship. The school is the big business of America. One million teachers and z8 million students are engaged in the schools. This means that one fourth of our population is engaged in teaching or learning. The aim of the schools is to teach students to be citizens and not subjects. To do this, they must master temperence. "The student who is unable to control his thinking or acting", he said, "is intemperate. Citizens who are temperate are builders rather than destroyers of character." "What to do with your nickle?" Buy two apples in the lunch room for two cents each. Then spend the other penny for a "Cher-O-Key." Gertrude Ginsberg left us last week to take up her residence in New York City.

Postcards--Florida Elks, Benevolent and Protective Order of Postcards--Florida Community centers--Florida Buildings--Florida Courthouses--Florida Description Postcard posted February of 1919 that shows Central Avenue (now Central Boulevard) at the corner of Court Avenue. Pictured is the Elks Club, as well as the intersection of Central and Orange Avenue. The Orlando Lodge of the Elks was founded on June 28, 1907. The Lodge rented space, first from the Odd Fellows and later the YMCA, prior to purchasing the land at Court Street and Central Boulevard for $1,250. The building was constructed circa 1910 by the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks and cost $8,500 to build. It was made in the Modern Eclectic style with Bungalow elements. Orange County eventually bought the property and demolished the building in 1955, at the same time the 1892 Orange County Courthouse was being torn down in preparation of the building of the Courthouse Annex building. The ground where the Elks Building once stood was turned into a parking lot for the Courthouse. The Elks Club moved to 409 East Central Boulevard and remained there until a fire destroyed their lodge in 1969. Afterward, the Elks moved to 12 North Primrose Avenue. The parking lot was eventually redeveloped into Heritage Square after the demolition of the Orange County Courthouse Annex in the late 1990s. Heritage Square opened in 2000.

Bok, Edward William, 1863-1930 Postcards--Florida Botanical gardens--Florida--Orlando Bird sanctuaries Carillons--United States Description Postcard sent in 1938 showing the Magnificent Singing Tower at the Bok Tower Gardens, located at 1151 Tower Boulevard in Lake Wales, Florida. Edward Bok retired to the town of Lake Wales, located south of Orlando. Bok set out a plan to establish a natural garden and bird sanctuary where people to visit to quietly enjoy nature. He engaged Frederick Law Olmstead, Jr. to design the grounds and asked architect Milton B. Medary to design and build a carillon tower. Lee Lawrie, a noted sculptor from New York, designed the elaborate marble sculpture that adorns the tower. Work was completed in 1928, and on February 1, 1929, President Calvin Coolidge dedicated the Sanctuary. Edward Bok died less than a year later in 1930 and was buried at the foot of the tower. The tower and the carillon housed inside is Bok Tower Gardens' most distinctive feature.The carillon consists of sixty bells, ranging in size from sixteen pounds to just under twelve tons. The bells are played like an organ with the keys connected to the clappers of each bell. Bok Tower has had only three regular carillonneurs in its more than seventy years. The Sanctuary's first carillonneur was Anton Brees, serving as the only carillonneur from 1928 until 1967. Milford Myhre has been the resident carillonneur since 1968. William De Turk has been the assistant carillonneur since 1993. De Turk is also the librarian of the Anton Brees Carillon Library, which is reportedly the largest and most comprehensive carillon library in the world. Creator Barnhill, E. G. C. T.

From its earliest days, Downtown Orlando was situated on the west side of the lake. As the town grew into a city, Lake Eola continued to be a focal point for the inhabitants, who used the lake for bathing, swimming and fishing, and its shores picnicking, listening to concerts, and participating in religious services. Much of the land around Lake Eola was donated to Orlando by Jacob Summerlin who designated that it be a public park. It has remained one ever since. The rest of the park land was donated by the Musselwhite Family and Mayor Frank Sperry.

Title Bird's Eye View Showing Elks Club, Court House and Eola Lake Postcard Alternative Title Elks Club, Court House and Eola Lake Postcard Subject Orlando (Fla.) Postcards--Florida Orange County (Fla.) Clock towers Business districts Courthouses--Florida Buildings--Florida Elks, Benevolent and Protective Order of Lakes--Florida Description Postcard showing the Victorian-style Orange County Courthouse with Lake Eola in the background. The streets are Main Street (present-day Magnolia Avenue) and Central Avenue (present-day Central Boulevard). The Orange County Courthouse was constructed in 1892 and its cornerstone was laid on January 15, 1892. The architect was A. S. Wagner and the general contractor was the W. C. Green Company of Chicago, Illinois. The red brick, three-story building, which cost $57,000, was built in the Gothic Revival style with a 80-foot high clock tower. The clock and bell were provided for by W. C. Sherman, a local businessman who raised several thousand dollars for the project. The clock mechanism was manufactured by Dent, London, founded by Edward John Dent, the company which made the Big Ben clock movement in London, England. The bell in the tower weighed 1,500 pounds, was tuned "F", was selected by local musician Harry Newell, and as of 2011, is on display in the lobby of the Orange County Courthouse. The Orange County Courthouse occupied the building until 1927, when a new primary courthouse was constructed next door. Afterward, it was used for Orange County offices. On July 30, 1957, the building was condemned and then demolished on December 30, 1957. A new Orange County Courthouse Annex building was constructed on the site. In the late 1990s, the Courthouse Annex was demolished and replaced with an urban park called Heritage Square, owned by Orange County. The gray building on the right is the McEwan Clinic, located at 100 East Central Boulevard, which was constructed in 1911. The original owner was Dr. John Singer McEwan. The building was designed to be Orlando's first public hospital. A third story was added circa 1920 to make a total of twenty hospital rooms. Apart from being a hospital and clinic, it was also the Florida Public Service Corporation, later the office of the Florida Gas Company, clothing stores (Artistry), and a 7-Eleven. As of 2011, it is the Central Station Bar. Across the Main Street from the Courthouse is the Orlando Lawn Bowling Clubs grounds. Source Original 5.5 x 3.5 inch color postcard: C. T.

Buildings--Florida Library Buildings--United States Postcards--Florida--Orlando Libraries--Florida Orlando (Fla.) Description Postcard showing Albertson Public Library, formerly located at 101 East Central Boulevard in Orlando, Florida. Construction began in 1922 and the library opened in May of 1923. The City of Orlando had the library built after Colonel Charles Lewis Albertson donated his personal 12,000 to 15,000 volume book collection to the city. His condition was that the city build a home for his books. His collection was estimated at the time to be worth $100,000. The architect was well-known Murray S. King. The library was built in the Neo-Classical Revival style and took up about half the city block between Rosalind Avenue and Magnolia Avenue. The other half was occupied by the grounds of the Orlando Lawn Bowling Club. The building had two stories with a partially sunken first floor. It was Orlando's first regular public library. When the library opened, it had 21,000 volumes, and by the year's end it had increased to over 30,000. The Albertson Public Library was demolished in 1965 and the Orlando Public Library was built on the same lot in 1966.

Postcards--Florida Business districts Courthouses--Florida Buildings--Florida Elks, Benevolent and Protective Order of Description Postcard showing Central Avenue (now Central Boulevard) at the corner of Court Avenue in Orlando, Florida. It shows the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks Club, as well as the intersection of Central and Orange Avenue. The Elks Club building was constructed circa 1910 and demolished circa 1955. The cost of construction was $8,500 and the architecture was designed in the Modern Eclectic style with Bungalow elements. The Orlando Lodge of the Elks was founded on June 28, 1907. The Lodge rented space, first from the Odd Fellows and later the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) prior to purchasing the land at Court Street and Central Boulevard for $1,250. Orange County eventually bought the property and demolished the building at the same time that the 1892 Orange County Courthouse was being torn down in preparation of the building of the Courthouse Annex building. The ground where the Elks Building once stood was turned into a parking lot for the Courthouse. The Elks moved to 409 East Central Boulevard and remained there until a fire destroyed the lodge in 1969. Afterward, the Elks moved to 12 North Primrose Avenue. The parking lot was eventually redeveloped into Heritage Square after the demolition of the Orange County Courthouse Annex in the late 1990s. Heritage Square opened in 2000.

Georgetown was established by the city's founder, Henry Shelton Sanford, in the 1870s. The neighborhood spans along Sanford Avenue, with its commercial district between First Street and Fifth Street, and its historic district between Seventh Street and Tenth Street. Though originally much smaller, Georgetown spanned to its present boundaries from East Second Street to Celery Avenue and from Sanford Avenue to Mellonville Avenue.

In 1885, the first Georgetown school was located at the northeast corner of Seventh and Cypress Avenue. It was founded with $100 from the school board. Mr. McLester was the first principal, followed by Mr. Reed and later by Mr. J. N. Crooms, who founded Crooms Academy. Some of the first Sanford businesses owned by black settlers were in Tuckertown, which would later become the business district of Georgetown. In 1887, there were twenty-eight registered voters. Between 1887 and 1923 Georgetown supported five ( Continued on other side) GEORGETOWN: (continued from other side) barbers, a blacksmith, a butcher, a dentist, five dress makers, two draymen, seven farmers, a general store, three dry goods and millinery,five hand laundries, two pharmacists, five postal workers, three realtor, three restaurant owners, five taxi drivers, a theater, undertakers and many churches. Circa 1915, families began to move out of the area for opportunities elsewhere. Family roots were planted and today the properties of many early settlers are still owned by the second and third generations. This community bonded families and persons into building a neighborhood for the future. Georgetown's landmarks include St. James African Methodist Episcopal Church, now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It was designed by Tuskeegee trained builder Prince W. Spears.

Scroggs and Ewing, architects from Georgia, prepared the plans for the Milane. The name of the new theater was derived from the combination of the Milane Amusement Company president and vice president: Frank L. Miller and Edward F. Lane, respectively. The Milane opened in July of 1923 and seated 823 patrons. In 1933, the Milane was sold to Frank and Stella Evans, investors from Lake Mary, Florida. The new owners renamed their business the Ritz Theater and held the property until the 1990s. However, the Ritz struggled financially in the 1960s and closed in 1978 due to failure to compete with the new multiplex theaters. The building remained vacant until 1984, when it reopened as the Showtime Cantina. The Showtime Cantina closed in 1988 and remained vacant and in decay. In the mid-1990s, Ritz Community Theater Projects, Inc. acquired the property and began rehabilitation in 1998. On May 6, 2000, the theater reopened as the Helen Stairs Theatre in honor of the citizen who led the restoration project, Helen Stairs. The following year, the location was placed on the National Register of Historic Places.

It was built by the Sanford Novelty Works of which Mr. V. C. Coller is proprietor and was designed by Mr. H. S. Selleck foreman of the wood working department of this firm, and does the designer great credit. Mr. Selleck did the entire wood work doing most of it by hand. It is made of gum finished in mahogany with polished glass windows and brass grill work in front of the ticket window. The inside being finished in panel work setting forth much taster used by the builder. The staining, varnishing and painting is the work of Mr. H. E. Wise the paint foreman of the same firm, and this also does much credit to Mr. Wise. This piece of furniture equals anything that might be built anywhere in this country, and goes up to show that Sanford has as fine a wood worker and finisher that may be found anywhere.

The name of the new theater was derived from the combination of the Milane Amusement Company president and vice president: Frank L. Miller and Edward F. Lane, respectively. The Milane opened in July of 1923 and seated 823 patrons. In 1933, the Milane was sold to Frank and Stella Evans, investors from Lake Mary, Florida. The new owners renamed their business the Ritz Theater and held the property until the 1990s. However, the Ritz struggled financially in the 1960s and closed in 1978 due to failure to compete with the new multiplex theaters. The building remained vacant until 1984, when it reopened as the Showtime Cantina. The Showtime Cantina closed in 1988 and remained vacant and in decay. In the mid-1990s, Ritz Community Theater Projects, Inc. acquired the property and began rehabilitation in 1998.

Hays is president. One of the documents which testified as to the national importance of the Greater Movie Season Celebration of last August was an endorsement from President Coolidge, who wrote: "My attention has been called to the fact that you are taking the twenty-ninth anniversary of the moving picture industry as as occasion to inaugurate a Greater Movie Season Campaign. Such a movement to emphasize the desirability of worthy motion pictures will be of real public value. "The progress that has been made in both education and entertainment in this tremendous enterprise is an outstanding achievement of the opening years of this Century. I congratulate you and wish you a continuation of your success." 'MANTRAP' (Advance Notice) Perry Marmont has always wanted to go canoeing in the Canadian woods. Marmont is English, and ever since having been in America, he has heard of the glories of summer camping. But he has never managed to do it. "The first autumn I planned to go," says Marmont, "I was suddenly in the position of finding my vacation canceled. "Then late one February, my boss told me I was at last going to realize my ambition--he was sending me to the Canadian wods. But it was for a snow picture! Everything was white and the thermometer stood at about fifteen below while I was there. "The next summer I didn't get a vacation." At last, however, Marmont has gone canoeing. He is featured in "Mantrap," the picturization by Director Victor Fleming of Sinclair Lewis' latest novel, which the Milane presents on Monday. The story is laid in the Canadian woods. The location where "Mantrap" was actually taken was at Little Bear Lake in the San Bernardino Mountains of Southern California a lake-and-woods country, teeming with rivulets and fish. And Marmont's role made him spend most of his time in a canoe. In fact, even when not acting, he was generally to be seen on the water. "It's almost as good as the North lands," says Marmont, "and at any rate I'll be an expert paddler when I do get to Canada." Clara Bow and Ernest Torrence are also featured in "Mantrap." 'EVE'S LEAVES' (Advance Notice) Hong-Kong has it all over Paris on the matter of creating fashions, according to Leatrice Joy. For heavy silk trousers, such as the Chinese girls wear in her latest starring picture, "Eve's Leaves," have made such a favorable impression on Leatrice that she predicts the adoption of feminine pants as everyday wear by women within a few years. Miss Joy laughs at those who are alarmed at the present drift of women's fashions toward masculinity. "We are only getting back to normalcy," declares this attractive star. "The Chinese have been dressing their women in trousers for centuries, and their ancestors were civilized when America's were cliff-dwellers. We are just catching up with their idea that clothes are primarily for the comfort of the wearer. After wearing a boy's costume for two weeks I realize the advantage men have had over us for so long." In "Eve's Leaves," which shows on the Milane screen Tuesday, Leatrice wears a pair of blue dungarees, a flannel shirt, and "sneakers"--a costume which is quite in harmony with her extreme boy-bob. William Boyd plays opposite the star, while Robert Edeson and Walter Long have also have excellent roles. Elmer Harris wrote the adaption for "Eve's Leaves," which was directed by Paul Sloane. 'RANSON'S FOLLY' (Advance Notice) "Ranson's Folly," billed at the Milane for Thursday, is the first picture Dick Barthelmess has mad eon the Coast in over seven years. "Ranson's Folly" was filmed at the Marshall Neilan Studio under the direction of Sidney Olcott. Colonel George L. Byram, a retired U.S. Army expert, superintended the costume and military detail. In this picture Dick plays the role of Lieutenant Ranson, which was made famous on the stage by Robert Edeson. This is the second Edeson stage play Dick has selected for the screen, the other one being "Classmates." "Ranson's Folly" is an adaptation of the famous story by Richard Harding Davis.

The picture is "Old Loves and New," which comes next Monday to Milane Theater. Although appropriate, the christening was merely a happy movie coincident, "Old Loves and New," which is Miss Fairfax's adaption of the celebrated E. M. Hull novel, "The Desert Healer," opens with a christening ball in Carew Castle, England, in honor of an heir born amid the strife of the late war. Lewis Stone has the rule of Lord Carew, who, following the wreck of his home, wanders off to join the nomads of Algeria. In the opening sequence with Stone is Katherine McDonald, who is returning to the screen in her first big role. Others in the cast are Barbara Bedford, Tully Marshall, Walter Pidgeon, Ann Rork, Arthur Rankin and Albert Conti. THE LITTLE IRISH GIRL (Advance Notice) Dolores Costello, who skyrocketed to stardom after her screen debut as the leading woman for John Barrymore in "The Sea Beast," will be seen in her new Warner Bros. picture. "The Little Irish Girl," at Milane Theater Tuesday. "The Little Irish Girl" is founded on C.D. Lancaster's story, "The Grifters," meaning crooks who are a sort of cross between grifters and lifters. The Irish girl is one whose come-hither looks are exploited by a gang of city grifters who are operating in a small country town. The story is a mystery-comedy of rural wit matched against city slickness. The screen version was written by Darryl Francis Zanuck, and the production was directed by Roy Del Ruth. The cast includes John Harron, Matthew Betz, Lee Moran, Gertrude Claire, Joseph Dowling, Dot Farley and Henry Barrows. THE FIGHTING HEART (Advance Notice) Surrounded by an excellent supporting cast, george O'Brien comes to the Milane's screen Saturday in John Ford's latest picture for William Fox, "The Fighting Heart," based on Larry Evan's story "Once to Every Man." It is one of the finest things this young William Fox player has done on the screen. If Larry Evans were writing a special screen story for George O'Brien, he could not have done better than "Once to Every Man." Besides having pathos, humor and dramatic situations, the story gives O'Brien an opportunity to appear in three distinct phases of life into which he fits admirably. O'Brien appears first as a country boy. He goes to the city and is later seen as a prize fighter. In this phase of the story his remarkable physique and boxing ability show to great advantage. Then he appears as the well groomed habitue of /broadway's gilded palalces. SWEET DADDIES (Advance Notice) Charlie Murray, the famous half of the vaudeville team, Murray and Mack, does another of his inimitable portraits of an Irishman in trouble in M.C. Levee's First National picture, "Sweet Daddies," at the Milane Friday. Charlie has won a solid place in the esteem of movie fans the world over, and it was he, along with Charlie Chaplin, and other celebrities who put the name of Mack Sennett on the film map. Murray has since graduated from that famous comedy lot and is under a long term contract to First National from whom he was loaned to play one of the feature roles in "Sweet Daddies." THE GREATER GLORY (Advance Notice) A side of the war that has been clouded in mystery is brought to the screen for the first time in "The Greater Glory," the colossal screen epic showing at Milane Theater Thursday. The picture was produced by June Mathis, who formerly gave the screen "The Four Horsemen," remembered as a priceless achievement. First NAtional releases "The Greater Glory." That the story of "The Greater Glory," which reveals conditions in Vietnam before, during and after the war, is authentic is revealed in the fact that the picture is an adaptation of the celebrated novel, "Viennese Medley," written by Edith O'Shaughnessy, wife of the American minister at Vienna. The assessed valuation of Seminole County in 1925 was $8,000,000.

Sit still! it's the Publicity Man talking "The Cave Man" ; At the Milane Tuesday : Sated by luxury and the frivolity of her set, Myra yearns for something different--something new to thrill her. On the wings of a torn hundred dollar bill comes adventure in the rough, grimy person of Mike Smagg, a handsome coal heaver, whom Myra introduces into society. The "haut monde" is fascinated by Mike's "cave-man" manners and Dolly, a haughty little deb, proposes marriage to him. Faster goes the merry wheel of make-believe until smash! Mike is again only a common laborer. But--he grabs Myra in the face of the world and marries her --a"cave-man" to the end. Matt Moore and Marie Prevost head the distinguished cast of Warner Bros. production of "The Cave Man," directed by Lewis Milestone from adaption of Gilette Burgess' story by Darryl Francis Zaneck. As Myra Gaylord, Miss Prevost is seen as one of those dilletante daughters of the too rich and too ridle, whose existence has consisted of a vicarious pursuit of artificial thrills. Her problem has been how to amuse herself and so, at a tender age, she finds her thrill possibilities nearly exhausted. She has tried almost everything but useful, constructive endeavor. Matt Moore plays Mike Smagg, a burly, tobacco-chewing, red-flanneled coal heaver. His manners are those of Hogan's Alley. He has bumped frequently and none to gently up against a rough and ready world since the day he entered it. His motto has come to be, "What I want I take--unless the other guy's a better man than me." This characterization is said to be so refreshingly different from those that Mr. Moore has up to this time portrayed, that his admirers will experience a distinct thrill of pleasure at his versatility. The cast also includes Phyllis Haver as Dolly Van Dream, popular favorite of the exclusive social set of which her mother is the leader. She is one of Myra's ilk and becomes a contender for Smagg's attentions until she finds, by his own confession, that his is not an eccentric socialist from London, but an East Side coal heaver. Her mother is portrayed by Hedda Hopper, an authentic creator of grande dame roles. In the part of the young gentleman of faultless antecedents and many polite accomplishments, the direct antithesis of Mike, the perfect escort, is John Patrick, distinguished for his flaming youth characterizations. Finally, as the sylph-like French maid, there is that slim princess, Myrna Loy. FASHION SHOW A STORM IN "MLLE. MODISTE" _______________________ An unusually picturesque fashion show furnishes one of the most colorful episode in the film version of "Mlle. Modiste," Corinne Griffith's latest First National starring picture, showing at the Milane Wednesday. The revue is called "The Storm." By means of gowns and frocks especially designed for the picture the various elements in an April shower are symbolized. Thus the sun is represented by a mannequin attired in a gown of bright pattern while the clouds are represented by models in gowns of sober coloration. Others in the little fashion show play represent the lightning, the sunbeams and the rainbow. Adrian, noted Parisian designer, created the pageant. Corinne Griffith appears on the scene "after the storm," displaying a number of gorgeous frocks. One in particular, with a black velvet bodice trimmed with white buttons and white monkey fur, is said to be exceptionally attractive. The most beautiful girls in Hollywood were selected as mannequins for this episode. Lilian Knight, who was crowned Miss Los Angeles, in one of the models. This picture is an adaptation of the famous Victor Herbert operetta. Robert Z. Leonard directed. A LITTLE CORNER OF PARIS __________________ Paris was reproduced--or at least a little corner of it--in California, when Edmund Goulding directed his new Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production, "Paris," billed to the Milane for Thursday. Several hundred French girls and men, recruited by the casting office in a canvass of the French population of California, appear in the Apache cafe scenes; many of them could speak no English, and Goulding directed the scenes in French. Actual reproductions were built, from photographs, of "the Brircage" and other famous haunts of the Paris Apaches. In the case of "The Birdcage," which strangers are never allowed to enter, the pictures were obtained by co-operation of the Paris police prefecture. The place is so dangerous that no gendarme ever invades it unaccompanied.

Little Miss Moran is only sixteen years old. After playing in one or two pictures abroad she made her American screen debut in "Stella Dallas," in which she scored an instantaneous and remarkable success. In "Just Suppose" she appears as a sweet aristocratic child of the South who falls in love with the very handsome and romantic Prince of "Koronia," played by Richard Barthelmess. Others in the cast include Geoffrey Kerr, Henry Vibart, Harry Short, Bijou Fernandez and Prince Rokneddine. HUNTING T.R.'S DOUBLE ________________ Men from many walks of life have been suggested as "living doubles" of Theodore Roosevelt to play the role of the late President in "The Rough Riders," which Paramount is to produce as a super-special this summer. The list includes many humble workmen, as well as men in every professional walk of life, including a former United States Senator. One aspirant is J.A. Nicholas of Los Angeles, a carpenter, who actually was a member of the Rough Riders Regiment in his youth. Frank Hopper of Los Angeles is a book agent. Peter deJesu is a sailor at the Naval Training Station at Newport, Rhode Island. Dr. Judson Moshelle, a physician of Indianapolis, has been suggested, as has Reverend L. William Hones of Roscoe, New York. A sea captain, O.B. Olson, is another who has been put forward. Professor A. S. Eve is a professor of McGill University, Montreal. Ex-Mayor Davis of Woburn, Mass., represents municipal circles, and Edward Gabori is customs inspector at Christobal, Panama Canal Zone. Dr. A. P. Montague of Mercer University, Macon, Ga., has also been put forward. An award of $500 has been offered by Paramount through Herman Hagedorn, Roosevelt's biographer, who is writing the screen story of "The Rough Riders," for the first person who sends in the name and photograph of the man finally adjudged best suited to play the part. WHEN BEERY PARKED _______________ Newspaper-lined vests were popular with Noah Berry at the time he made his first bid for theatrical fame in New York. He also showed a marked liking for fresh air, even to the extent of spending nights on park benches and in less conspicuous spots. It was usually while sleeping that he used the news paper lining. Within a day of his arrival in the big city Noah Berry had pawned everything he owned with the exception of his one suit. It was two years later that he finally got a start on the stage. "And I have been broke many times since," says the now noted screen actor. Berry is now playing what Hollywood critics declare is the greatest role of his career, that of Adjutant Lejaune, "the cruelest beast and bravest soldier" in "Beau Geste," Herbert Brenson's production of P.C. Wren's dramatic mystery-story of the French Foreign Legion. SCREEN NOTES ____________ Studio prop men are supposed to fill in any kind of an emergency during the filming of a motion picture. And they did at the Paramount Long Island studio during the filming of Gilda Gray's first starring picture, "Aloma of the South Seas." A number of scantily clad girls, playing the parts of South Sea Islanders, had to hurry hither and theither serving patrons of a native cafe. They began to pick up splinters in their feet. Prop men carefully picked out each splinter and the feet were treated to a coating of liquid court-plaster. * * * * An entire city built for Zane Grey's "Born to the West," which Paramount is filming on the West Coast, was swept away during a terrific rainstorm in Southern California. * * * * Forty of the prettiest girls in Hollywood were engaged for a garden-party scene in Allan Dwan's next big Paramount picture, "Padlocked." * * * * Fifty-three camels were shipped to Yuma, Arizona, from Los Angeles for use in making Herbert Brenon's "Beau Geste." More than 2000 men were taken to the desert location for battle scenes in his Paramount mystery-romance.

Scroggs and Ewing, architects from Georgia, prepared the plans for the Milane. The name of the new theater was derived from the combination of the Milane Amusement Company president and vice president: Frank L. Miller and Edward F. Lane, respectively. The Milane opened in July of 1923 and seated 823 patrons. In 1933, the Milane was sold to Frank and Stella Evans, investors from Lake Mary, Florida. The new owners renamed their business the Ritz Theater and held the property until the 1990s. However, the Ritz struggled financially in the 1960s and closed in 1978 due to failure to compete with the new multiplex theaters. The building remained vacant until 1984, when it reopened as the Showtime Cantina. The Showtime Cantina closed in 1988 and remained vacant and in decay. In the mid-1990s, Ritz Community Theater Projects, Inc. acquired the property and began rehabilitation in 1998. On May 6, 2000, the theater reopened as the Helen Stairs Theatre in honor of the citizen who led the restoration project, Helen Stairs. The following year, the location was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2008, additional renovations were completed and the theater was renamed the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center in honor of the Wayne Densch Charitable Trust Fund for contributing to the renovations fund.

The acts were very clever and made the giving away of the first and second prizes very difficult for the management. Miss Juanita Smith won the first prize of five dollars with a neat little dancing act. Miss Wema Graves won the second prize with a dandy little song, "I've Got the Mumps." Mrs. Gordon entertained very highly with the two songs, "Just a Weary'ng for You," and "Marchetta." The Schuld[?] brothers with a cornet and saxaphone duet, played "Lonesome," and "Yes, We Have No Bananas." The two boys are great.

Schools Education--Florida High schools--Florida Description The Sanford High School Graduating Class of 1912, published in the Salmagundi for the 1911-1912 school year. The class motto was "finimus coepturi," which is Latin for "finish to begin." The class colors were green and white and the class flower was a white carnation. Josie Stumon was the class president, with Lillian Higgins as the secretary and Bertha Packard as the treasurer. 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.

The Milane opened in July of 1923 and seated 823 patrons. In 1933, the Milane was sold to Frank and Stella Evans, investors from Lake Mary, Florida. The new owners renamed their business the Ritz Theater and held the property until the 1990s. However, the Ritz struggled financially in the 1960s and closed in 1978 due to failure to compete with the new multiplex theaters. The building remained vacant until 1984, when it reopened as the Showtime Cantina. The Showtime Cantina closed in 1988 and remained vacant and in decay. In the mid-1990s, Ritz Community Theater Projects, Inc. acquired the property and began rehabilitation in 1998. On May 6, 2000, the theater reopened as the Helen Stairs Theatre in honor of the citizen who led the restoration project, Helen Stairs. The following year, the location was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2008, additional renovations were completed and the theater was renamed the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center in honor of the Wayne Densch Charitable Trust Fund for contributing to the renovations fund.

Schools Education--Florida High schools--Florida Description The 1910 Salmagundi was the first yearbook for Sanford High School. The yearbook was named after a Native American word meaning "a general mixture." Carrie Lovell was the editor-in-chief of the Salmagundi, which cost fifteen cents. It has 40 pages, six of which make up the advertisement section. Topics of interest in the yearbook include student writings, such as "American Endeavor Rules the World." There is a social section, as well as an athletic section, which discusses creating an athletic association at Sanford High School. Some photographss are featured of Sanford High School: the view from the top of the school, the graduating seniors, and the junior class in formal attire. 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.

Scroggs and Ewing, architects from Georgia, prepared the plans for the Milane. The name of the new theater was derived from the combination of the Milane Amusement Company president and vice president: Frank L. Miller and Edward F. Lane, respectively. The Milane opened in July of 1923 and seated 823 patrons. In 1933, the Milane was sold to Frank and Stella Evans, investors from Lake Mary, Florida. The new owners renamed their business the Ritz Theater and held the property until the 1990s. However, the Ritz struggled financially in the 1960s and closed in 1978 due to failure to compete with the new multiplex theaters. The building remained vacant until 1984, when it reopened as the Showtime Cantina. The Showtime Cantina closed in 1988 and remained vacant and in decay. In the mid-1990s, Ritz Community Theater Projects, Inc. acquired the property and began rehabilitation in 1998. On May 6, 2000, the theater reopened as the Helen Stairs Theatre in honor of the citizen who led the restoration project, Helen Stairs. The following year, the location was placed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Theaters--Florida Plays, American Plays for performance Musicals--United States Description Flyer for the Ritz Theater's presentation of Godspell at the Sanford Civic Center. Godspell is a musical produced by Stephen Schwartz based on a book by John Michael Tebelak. The play originally opened on Broadway on May 17, 1971. The musical consists of a series of parables based on the Gospel of Matthew and the Gospel of Luke. Originally the Milane Theatre, the building was constructed at 203 South Magnolia Avenue in Sanford, the former location of the Star Theatre, an abandoned movie house. Scroggs and Ewing, architects from Georgia, prepared the plans for the Milane. The name of the new theater was derived from the combination of the presidents of the Milane Amusement Company president and vice president: Frank L. Miller and Edward F. Lane. The Milane opened in July of 1923 and seated 823 patrons. In 1933, the Milane was sold to Frank and Stella Evans, investors from Lake Mary, Florida. The new owners renamed their business the Ritz Theatre and held the property until the 1990s. However, the Ritz struggled financially in the 1960s and closed in 1978 due to failure to compete with the new multiplex theaters. The building remained vacant until 1984, when it reopened as the Showtime Cantina. The Showtime Cantina closed in 1988 and remained vacant and in decay. In the mid-1990s, Ritz Community Theater Projects, Inc. acquired the property and began rehabilitation in 1998. On May 6, 2000, the theater reopened as the Helen Stairs Theatre in honor of the citizen who led the restoration project, Helen Stairs. The following year, the location was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2008, additional renovations were completed at the theater was renamed the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center in honor of the Wayne Densch Charitable Trust Fund for contributing to the renovations fund.

Title Stage Entrance at the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center Alternative Title Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center Subject Sanford (Fla.) Buildings--Florida Performing Arts--United States Theaters--Florida Theater--21st century Segregation--Florida Description The current stage entrance of the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center, which was formerly the segregated colored entrance at the Milane Theatre and later the Ritz Theater. Originally the Milane Theatre, the building was constructed at 203 South Magnolia Avenue in Sanford, the former location of the Star Theatre, an abandoned movie house. Scroggs and Ewing, architects from Georgia, prepared the plans for the Milane. The name of the new theater was derived from the combination of the presidents of the Milane Amusement Company president and vice president: Frank L. Miller and Edward F. Lane. The Milane opened in July of 1923 and seated 823 patrons. In 1933, the Milane was sold to Frank and Stella Evans, investors from Lake Mary, Florida.

The building remained vacant until 1984, when it reopened as the Showtime Cantina. The Showtime Cantina closed in 1988 and remained vacant and in decay. In the mid-1990s, Ritz Community Theater Projects, Inc. acquired the property and began rehabilitation in 1998. On May 6, 2000, the theater reopened as the Helen Stairs Theatre in honor of the citizen who led the restoration project, Helen Stairs. The following year, the location was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2008, additional renovations were completed at the theater was renamed the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center in honor of the Wayne Densch Charitable Trust Fund for contributing to the renovations fund.

The new owners renamed their business the Ritz Theater and held the property until the 1990s. However, the Ritz struggled financially in the 1960s and closed in 1978 due to failure to compete with the new multiplex theaters. The building remained vacant until 1984, when it reopened as the Showtime Cantina. The Showtime Cantina closed in 1988 and remained vacant and in decay. In the mid-1990s, Ritz Community Theater Projects, Inc. acquired the property and began rehabilitation in 1998. On May 6, 2000, the theater reopened as the Helen Stairs Theatre in honor of the citizen who led the restoration project, Helen Stairs. The following year, the location was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2008, additional renovations were completed and the theater was renamed the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center in honor of the Wayne Densch Charitable Trust Fund for contributing to the renovations fund.

Title Sanford State Farmers' Market Collection Description The Sanford State Farmers' Market Collection contains images of the market's history and its significance to local and state agriculture. The Sanford State Farmers' Market was founded in 1934 in order to provide a central location in which farmers would sell their produce directly to consumers. The idea for the Sanford State Farmers' Market was devised by Fred Dorner and Gus Schmach, both members of the Seminole Agricultural Club. The Sanford Chamber of Commerce president Harry Papworth also contributed to the development of the market. The Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA) authorized construction plans on June 11, 1934. On June 20, 1934, the City of Sanford donated a portion of the Alex V. French properties to the Florida State Marketing Board, which selected the northwest corner of French Avenue and Thirteenth Street. The board approved the installation of telegraph and telephone equipment, as well as a three-pump filling station. The Sanford State Farmer's Market opened on December 18, 1934. By 1939, the Farmers' Market was bringing a total volume of business of $627,065.81. In 1941, business volume reached over $700,000. On April 4, 1957, a fire destroyed the building and caused damages estimated at $2.5 million. Reconstruction began almost immediately and the Farmers' Market was expected to re-open by the fall of 1957. In 1991, plans were created to restore, preserve, and convert the citrus packing house into a museum.

Transcript CITY DONATES 20-ACRE TRACT FOR MARKET Part of Alex French Property At 13th Street Deeded To Market Board ________________________________________ The northwestern corner of Alex. V. French properties at Thirteenth Street and French Avenue, comprising 20 acres, was offered to the State Marketing Board this afternoon by the City of Sanford as a site for the proposed $75,000 Florida State Farmers; Wholesale Distributing Market. Decisions to donate this property was unanimous, and it came at the end of a conference between the City Commissioners, a delegation from the Seminole Agriculture Club, Attorneys Fred R. Wilson and E. F. Housholder, and Karl Lehmann of the Chamber of Commerce, who was invited by the Commissioners to participate in the discussion. Under terms of the recently announced decision of FERA officials to release $75,000 for the construction of this plant, in Sanford it was necessary that the city or county donate the land upon which it would be constructed. Twelve sites were surveyed by the Agriculture Club committee, and the French property was considered as one of the most satisfactory. Despite the fact that the city secured title to the French property as well as the result of foreclosure action, both City Attorney Wilson and County Attorney Housholder agreed that the State Marketing Board would be handed a clear title to the property, [?]. The 20-acre tract is considered as most advantageously located. It borders French Avenue, a main artery of traffic between Sanford and Orlando. It also borders 13th Street which is closely connected with short-cut roads leading from both the east side and west side growing areas. It is immediately adjacent to an Atlantic Coast Line railroad branch line track, an an announcement was made that a spur could be run directly on the property without much additional expense.

Transcript Seminole County Historical Society May 15, 1991 Mr. George Percy, Director Division of Historical Resources R. A. Gray Building 500 South Bronough Street Tallahassee, Fl 32399-0250 Dear Mr. Percy, On behalf of the officers, directors, and members of the Seminole County Historical Society, it is with considerable pleasure that I write this letter of support for the request. for a Special Category Grant for the restoration, preservation, and conversion to a museum of Unit 5 at the Sanford State Farmer's Market. Unit 5 was used primarily as a citrus packing house and is one of the original buildings in the first state owned farmer's market complex in the nation. We are currently in the process of getting it placed on the National Register of Historic Places in America. The proposed museum will bring to the attention of the public a portion of little known history of how projects such as the farmer's market system helped shape the economy and destiny of re¬gions throughout our state and nation. In addition, the anticipated exhibits will reach far beyond this in their interest level of the old tools, machinery and en¬gines of yesteryear. Should any additional information concerning the historical significance of this project or any part of the grant request be needed, please do not hesitate to call upon us to provide it. Sincerely yours, Cecil A.

Title Sanford State Farmers' Market Collection Description The Sanford State Farmers' Market Collection contains images of the market's history and its significance to local and state agriculture. The Sanford State Farmers' Market was founded in 1934 in order to provide a central location in which farmers would sell their produce directly to consumers. The idea for the Sanford State Farmers' Market was devised by Fred Dorner and Gus Schmach, both members of the Seminole Agricultural Club. The Sanford Chamber of Commerce president Harry Papworth also contributed to the development of the market. The Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA) authorized construction plans on June 11, 1934. On June 20, 1934, the City of Sanford donated a portion of the Alex V. French properties to the Florida State Marketing Board, which selected the northwest corner of French Avenue and Thirteenth Street. The board approved the installation of telegraph and telephone equipment, as well as a three-pump filling station. The Sanford State Farmer's Market opened on December 18, 1934. By 1939, the Farmers' Market was bringing a total volume of business of $627,065.81. In 1941, business volume reached over $700,000. On April 4, 1957, a fire destroyed the building and caused damages estimated at $2.5 million. Reconstruction began almost immediately and the Farmers' Market was expected to re-open by the fall of 1957. In 1991, plans were created to restore, preserve, and convert the citrus packing house into a museum.

Transcript Farmers' Market Aide Retires First rest and back to work in civic activities and "all the other things I've wanted to do and couldn't over the past many years" are on the agenda for Mrs. Edith M. Dutton, who is retiring after 28 years service as secretary to Leo Butner, manager of the Sanford Farmer's Market. Mrs. Dutton was recognized for services to agriculture and awarded her 25 year pin three years ago this coming December at the annual statewide conference. Residing at 213 West 16th Street, she has two daughters, Mrs. Laurelle Inge of Miami and Mrs. June Wilkins of Sanford and three grandchildren, Susan Inge of Miami and Billy and Cynthia Lynn Wilkins of Sanford. Both of Mrs. Dutton's daughters are graduates of Seminole High School and Mrs. Wilkins is a registered nurse and employed at Seminole Memorial Hospital. Most memorable during Mrs. Dutton's service at the Farmers' Market is when the old building north of the present facility burned to the ground on Apr. 4, 1957. The new building was erected almost immediately and dedicated in October of the same year. Only two commissioners of agriculture were in office during her long service, Nathan Mayo and the present one, Doyle Connor. Mrs. Dutton plans in 1970 "Be the Lord willing" to go to Kansas and attend the 50th year alumni celebration at Seneca High School.

Title Sanford State Farmers' Market Collection Description The Sanford State Farmers' Market Collection contains images of the market's history and its significance to local and state agriculture. The Sanford State Farmers' Market was founded in 1934 in order to provide a central location in which farmers would sell their produce directly to consumers. The idea for the Sanford State Farmers' Market was devised by Fred Dorner and Gus Schmach, both members of the Seminole Agricultural Club. The Sanford Chamber of Commerce president Harry Papworth also contributed to the development of the market. The Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA) authorized construction plans on June 11, 1934. On June 20, 1934, the City of Sanford donated a portion of the Alex V. French properties to the Florida State Marketing Board, which selected the northwest corner of French Avenue and Thirteenth Street. The board approved the installation of telegraph and telephone equipment, as well as a three-pump filling station. The Sanford State Farmer's Market opened on December 18, 1934. By 1939, the Farmers' Market was bringing a total volume of business of $627,065.81. In 1941, business volume reached over $700,000. On April 4, 1957, a fire destroyed the building and caused damages estimated at $2.5 million. Reconstruction began almost immediately and the Farmers' Market was expected to re-open by the fall of 1957. In 1991, plans were created to restore, preserve, and convert the citrus packing house into a museum.

L. H. Lewis, director of sate farmers' markets, said at headquarters here that the bids were so close they will have to be examined carefully before it is determined which will be accepted. The bids came from the Arnold Construction Co. of Fort Pierce, Gregg, Gibson and Gregg of Leesburg, and the Mann Construction Co. of Orlando. They ranged from a low of $209,887 from the Leesburg firm to a high of $213,973 from Mann. The bids were for construction of a steel and concrete type building 80 by 480 feet. There were also alternate bids for a "triple-A" type building. Lewis named an "examination and interview" committee to study the bids and talk with officials of the three firms. The committee will be composed of himself, Tom C. Skinner, executive[?] agricultural engineer at he University of Florida, and Frank G. George, consulting architect for the project.

Transcript Farmers' Market Officially Opens For Transactions Growers Invited To Use Building Free Until About Jan. 15 __________________________________________ The new $30,000 State Farmers' Wholesale Market around which state and national notables yesterday gathered to participate in its dedication, also was opened officially for business, it was announced this morning by Harry M. Papworth, chairman of the Advisory and Supervisory Board. In a statement addressed to the growers of Sanford and all of Florida, Mr. Papworth established the immediate policy of operations at the market when he said, "The market was officially opened yesterday and it will be open for business from now on. However, it is Commissioner Mayo's wish that from now until Jan. 15 we permit the use of the market's facilities to any grower or shipper wishing[?] to transact business. There will be no charge for the use of the platform space until Jan. 15." "On that date," Mr. Papworth stated, "We expect that there will be a large supply of fruits and vegetables available, and that the market building will be completed. We will not begin to collect stall rents until Jan. 15, and until that date the growers and shippers of this section are invited to use platform space which is available." Market Master J. G. Michael will be on the grounds every day, Mr. Papworth stated, to assist growers and shippers and to disseminate information relating to every phase of the planet and its operation. A telephone already has been installed, and Western Union workmen will announce that the branch office, located in the main building will be ready for use in a few days, Despite the cloudy rainy weather of today the new plant continues to attract local and out-of-town persons, just as it did yesterday. It is estimated that fully 2500 persons were on the grounds during the dedicatory services yesterday, and that at least another 1000 paid a visit to the plant during the morning and late afternoon. The honor of having made the first sale supervised by Market Master J. G. Michael was credited to Edward Williams of Orlando who sold a quantity of East Coast limes avocadoes and vegetables grown by Ed Bullion on his Gardenia Farm near here to S. L. Storey of Eustis. The second "official" sale was made by H. J. Clause of Sanford when he sold a quantity of vegetables for the Sanford-Oviedo Truck Gorwers, Inc. and Peter Thurston to Jack Swordlin, out of town trucker. The dedicatory services were in the hands of Mr. Papworth as chairman of the committee. The speakers were: W. R. Smith of Tallahassee as a personal representative of Governor Sholtz; Commissioner Nathan Mayo; Marketing Commissioner L. M. Rhodes; State Treasurer W. V. Knott; Congressman Joe Sears; State Marketing Commissioner W. B. Davis of WEst Virgina, and F. F. Dorner, president of the Seminole County Agricultural Association.

Title Sanford State Farmers' Market Collection Description The Sanford State Farmers' Market Collection contains images of the market's history and its significance to local and state agriculture. The Sanford State Farmers' Market was founded in 1934 in order to provide a central location in which farmers would sell their produce directly to consumers. The idea for the Sanford State Farmers' Market was devised by Fred Dorner and Gus Schmach, both members of the Seminole Agricultural Club. The Sanford Chamber of Commerce president Harry Papworth also contributed to the development of the market. The Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA) authorized construction plans on June 11, 1934. On June 20, 1934, the City of Sanford donated a portion of the Alex V. French properties to the Florida State Marketing Board, which selected the northwest corner of French Avenue and Thirteenth Street. The board approved the installation of telegraph and telephone equipment, as well as a three-pump filling station. The Sanford State Farmer's Market opened on December 18, 1934. By 1939, the Farmers' Market was bringing a total volume of business of $627,065.81. In 1941, business volume reached over $700,000. On April 4, 1957, a fire destroyed the building and caused damages estimated at $2.5 million. Reconstruction began almost immediately and the Farmers' Market was expected to re-open by the fall of 1957. In 1991, plans were created to restore, preserve, and convert the citrus packing house into a museum.

Title Sanford State Farmers' Market Collection Description The Sanford State Farmers' Market Collection contains images of the market's history and its significance to local and state agriculture. The Sanford State Farmers' Market was founded in 1934 in order to provide a central location in which farmers would sell their produce directly to consumers. The idea for the Sanford State Farmers' Market was devised by Fred Dorner and Gus Schmach, both members of the Seminole Agricultural Club. The Sanford Chamber of Commerce president Harry Papworth also contributed to the development of the market. The Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA) authorized construction plans on June 11, 1934. On June 20, 1934, the City of Sanford donated a portion of the Alex V. French properties to the Florida State Marketing Board, which selected the northwest corner of French Avenue and Thirteenth Street. The board approved the installation of telegraph and telephone equipment, as well as a three-pump filling station. The Sanford State Farmer's Market opened on December 18, 1934. By 1939, the Farmers' Market was bringing a total volume of business of $627,065.81. In 1941, business volume reached over $700,000. On April 4, 1957, a fire destroyed the building and caused damages estimated at $2.5 million. Reconstruction began almost immediately and the Farmers' Market was expected to re-open by the fall of 1957. In 1991, plans were created to restore, preserve, and convert the citrus packing house into a museum.

The Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA) authorized construction plans on June 11, 1934. On June 20, 1934, the City of Sanford donated a portion of the Alex V. French properties to the Florida State Marketing Board, which selected the northwest corner of French Avenue and Thirteenth Street. The board approved the installation of telegraph and telephone equipment, as well as a three-pump filling station. The Sanford State Farmer's Market opened on December 18, 1934. By 1939, the Farmers' Market was bringing a total volume of business of $627,065.81. In 1941, business volume reached over $700,000. On April 4, 1957, a fire destroyed the building and caused damages estimated at $2.5 million. Reconstruction began almost immediately and the Farmers' Market was expected to re-open by the fall of 1957. In 1991, plans were created to restore, preserve, and convert the citrus packing house into a museum.

Transcript Papworth Again Named To Head Market's Board ____________________________________ Two Are Re-elected To Advisory Body, Lehman Reports H. M. Papworth, who has served as chairman of the advisory board of the Sanford State Farmers' Market since its organization with the exception of one year, was unanimously re-elected to head the board for the coming year at a meeting held at the market last night, H. J. Lehman, manager, reported today. Mr. Papworth was introduced at the State market convention in Jacksonville last week as the oldest and first chairman of any advisory committee in the State marketing system. The chairman has served the Sanford market, oldest in the state, continuously except for the 1939, when John Meisch, Sr. ,was head of the advisory group. W. A. Leffler and Gus Schmach, whose term of office had expired, were re-elected members of the advisory committee. Committee members approved a request of Harry Tooke for coloring rooms and ventilators in the citrus packing house at the market, providing the cost did not exceed $400. A committee composed of Mr. Lehman, and Alex Johnson reported that they had interviewed dealers concerning the uniform commission to be charged for buying and handling produce on consignment. Dealers said they would call a meeting of all those who expect to operate at the market next season and agree upon a uniform rate and would give a report of their agreement to the advisory committee for consideration and approval. It was decided that "buyers' cards" would be printed on stiff cardboard advertising the market on one side and having [illegible] and linen for the convenience[?] of the trucker to list articles bought on the reverse side. These cards will be given to truckers as they enter the market. Mr. Lehman reported that the roof of the market restaurant needed repairing, and that the rain would ruin the building[?] unless it were fixed. The manager was instructed to take steps to report[?[ the roof. A report of[?] the market meeting in Jacksonville was given by Mr. Papworth.

Transcript Pioneer Farmers' Market Seminole county is the cradle, so to speak, of the Florida State Farmers' Market system. The first of these markets operated in Florida was opened at Sanford with official dedication on December 18, 1934. Its successful operation in showing an increase of business every year since its opening is largely responsible for the network of farmers' markets wither already operating or now under construction throughout the state. This system is said to be the greatest advancement for the betterment of farmers and agricultural marketing during modern times. The Florida system is being studied and adapted to varying conditions by agricultural departments of many other states. And the Sanford market is almost constantly visited by officials and delegations interested in market developments in their own sections. The Sanford market occupies 20 acres of land and has a shed 618 feet long. This shed is the concentration point for vegetable production not only from this bur several adjoining counties. Practically every county south of Seminole is represented on our market map as having sent produce by truck for marketing on the Sanford platform. At this state owned and operated market approximate gross sales of Florida products for the fiscal year closing June 30, 1939 are reported as $534,473.93. Out of state products handled amounting to $92,591.88 brought total volume of business of the market for the year to $627,065.81. The Farmers' market did $166,000 business in March of this year, a real achievement considering the damage done to Florida crops by the freeze of last January. An active Market Master, employed to operate the Farmers' market is aided by a supervising committee of nine local men, who are appointed by the State Marketing board. A number of wholesale concerns have located in Sanford because of its advantages as a distributing center with transportation by water available. Sanford is one of the few interior cities of Florida having both rail and water transportation. Freight service is operated on the St. Johns river by the St. Johns River lines, which maintain a daily schedule.

Title Sanford Farmers Market is Third Largest in State: Annual Business is Around $700,000 in Florida Products Alternative Title Sanford Farmers Market is Third Largest in State Subject Sanford (Fla.) Farmers' markets--Florida Agriculture--Florida Description Newspaper article in the The Sanford Herald on the Sanford State Farmers Market, which is the oldest of its kind in the state of Florida and was the third largest in 1941. The Sanford State Farmers' Market, located at 1300 South French Avenue, was founded in 1934 in order to provide a central location in which farmers would sell their produce directly to consumers. The idea for the Sanford State Farmers' Market was devised by Fred Dorner and Gus Schmach, both members of the Seminole Agricultural Club. Sanford Chamber of Commerce president Harry M. Papworth also contributed to the development of the market. The Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA) authorized construction plans on June 11, 1934. On June 20, 1934, the City of Sanford donated a portion of the Alex V. French properties to the State Marketing Board, which selected the northwest corner of French Avenue and Thirteenth Street. The board approved the installation of telegraph and telephone equipment, as well as a three-pump filling station. The Sanford State Farmer's Market opened on December 18, 1934. By 1939, the Farmers' Market was bringing a total volume of business of $627,065.81. In 1941, business volume reached over $700,000. On April 4, 1957, a fire destroyed the building and caused damages estimated at $2.5 million. Reconstruction began almost immediately and the Farmers' Market was expected to re-open by the fall of 1957. In 1991, plans were created to restore, preserve, and convert the citrus packing house into a museum.

On June 20, 1934, the City of Sanford donated a portion of the Alex V. French properties to the State Marketing Board, which selected the northwest corner of French Avenue and Thirteenth Street. The board approved the installation of telegraph and telephone equipment, as well as a three-pump filling station. The Sanford State Farmer's Market opened on December 18, 1934. By 1939, the Farmers' Market was bringing a total volume of business of $627,065.81. In 1941, business volume reached over $700,000. On April 4, 1957, a fire destroyed the building and caused damages estimated at $2.5 million.

The board approved the installation of telegraph and telephone equipment, as well as a three-pump filling station. The Sanford State Farmer's Market opened on December 18, 1934. By 1939, the Farmers' Market was bringing a total volume of business of $627,065.81. In 1941, business volume reached over $700,000. On April 4, 1957, a fire destroyed the building and caused damages estimated at $2.5 million.

Transcript The Farmers' Market _______________ In fitting ceremonies today Sanford is dedicating the Farmers' Wholesale Market, the fulfillment of a dream of many years standing among local farmers and other civic minded individuals. It has long realized here that our location is at the heart of the greatest vegetable producing area in the state offered wonderful possibilities for the development of wholesale marketing facilities. But it was not until the federal government came forward with a plan of paying for the labor costs of such a project and the State Department of Agriculture agreed to supply the necessary materials that a way was found for financing the construction of such a center. Once these financial problems were solved little time was lost in launching the project and bringing it to its present state of development. While the freeze of last week may delay for a short time the full utilization of the market's facilities, since there were very few vegetables in Central Florida which escaped the frost, nevertheless we feel confident that before many weeks have passed a thriving business will be plainly evident at this market and that before the winter is over it will be recognized as one of Sanford's most substantial institutions. We can readily visualize the day when farmers from all over Central Florida will bring their produce to Sanford for the purpose of selling it at our market. It will be the only market in this part of the state and practically the only place where farmers can dispose of their products on a wholesale cash and carry basis. We do not expect it to be an advantage to the farmers of the whole Central Florida section as well. The Herald wishes to take this opportunity of publicly commending those energetic and far-sighted citizens of Sanford whose efforts are so largely responsible for the construction of this marketing center. Theirs is the kind of civic spirit which produces great cities, As their market grows and prospers, Sanford will grow and prosper, and the whole city will owe a debt of gratitude to the fathers of the Farmers' Wholesale Market.

Transcript The New Market _____________ The recent announcement that funds have been secured through the FERA for the erection in this city of a Farmers' Wholesale Distributing Market; offers more real encouragement as to the future of Seminole County than anything we have seen in a long time. The fact that the government is willing to advance $75,000 for the construction of such a market is ample indication of its confidence in the agricultural possibilities of this community. Coming just at this time when the celery season has closed, the farmers are wondering what they are going to do next, and labor is largely idle, the understanding of such a large project should afford encouragement to everyone. It is plainly certain that $75,000 in outside capital spent in this city during the summer months will have a tremendously stimulating effect on an otherwise slack business season. But as we see it, the benefits of this market will have only begun when its construction is complete. The farmers will be materially benefited through having a convenient marketing place for the disposition of their produce. They will be greatly aided by the cold storage facilities which will enable them to preserve their fruits and vegetables if they cannot sell them profitably. Further, the creation of a central agency for the distribution of crop reports and other information relating to marketing conditions will be most helpful. Neither is it difficult to envisage many accumulating advantages to the merchants of this city. As Mr. Dorner so aptly expressed it before the Kiwanis Club the other day, "If the growers prosper, everybody prospers." From all over Central Florida, farmers, big and little, will bring their produce to Sanford's market. Selling it here, instead of shipping it, to collect later, maybe, they will have money in their pockets when they walk down Sanford's streets. So all in all, we feel that it is a wonderful piece of news for our county, this building of the Framers' Wholesale Distributing Market here.

Title Sanford State Farmers' Market Collection Description The Sanford State Farmers' Market Collection contains images of the market's history and its significance to local and state agriculture. The Sanford State Farmers' Market was founded in 1934 in order to provide a central location in which farmers would sell their produce directly to consumers. The idea for the Sanford State Farmers' Market was devised by Fred Dorner and Gus Schmach, both members of the Seminole Agricultural Club. The Sanford Chamber of Commerce president Harry Papworth also contributed to the development of the market. The Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA) authorized construction plans on June 11, 1934. On June 20, 1934, the City of Sanford donated a portion of the Alex V. French properties to the Florida State Marketing Board, which selected the northwest corner of French Avenue and Thirteenth Street. The board approved the installation of telegraph and telephone equipment, as well as a three-pump filling station. The Sanford State Farmer's Market opened on December 18, 1934. By 1939, the Farmers' Market was bringing a total volume of business of $627,065.81. In 1941, business volume reached over $700,000. On April 4, 1957, a fire destroyed the building and caused damages estimated at $2.5 million. Reconstruction began almost immediately and the Farmers' Market was expected to re-open by the fall of 1957. In 1991, plans were created to restore, preserve, and convert the citrus packing house into a museum.

Transcript THE STATE FARMERS MARKET The Farmer's Market was the "brain child" of Mr. Fred Dorner, a former citizen, and Mr. Gus Schmach, both of whom were active in the old Seminole Agricultural Club, whose activities were later merged with those of the Farm Bureau. It is a state project. Mr. Harry Papworth, at that time president of the local Chamber of Commerce, was very active in its establishment, often advancing payrolls to take care of initial work for which he was always reimbursed. Mr. Alec[sic] French and his wife deeded to the city the north end of the former French family orange grove on French Avenue and 13th Street as a location. The market came into existence in 1934. J. G. Michaels served as its first manager and remained in office seven years, until he moved to Jacksonville to serve as an officer of the State Market Bureau. Mr. H. J. Lehman succeeded him, serving for nine years, until his sudden death in the Fall of 1948. Mrs. Edith Dutton, the efficient secretary who had served seven years, acted as temporary manager until Sandy Anderson was appointed to take over the management. The object of the market is to create a ready sale for farm products. It handles fifty-five varieties of fruit, vegetables, etc. About 148 trucking firm buy and sell, operating trucks throughout the sate as well as in other areas. Every stall is rented, and many firms have built warehouses nearby. Barber shop restaurants, and filling stations occupy space on the grounds, one of the business spots in this vicinity during the Winter season. The market is constantly enlarging and growing in volume. During the season of 1947-48 1,544,662 units of Florida produce were handled; also 159,264 out of state units, making a total of 1,705,926 altogether. This represents a turnover of $3,071,942.28, against the previous year, 1946-47 when a total of 1,185,370 units were handled, representing $2,308,018.93. 13th Street Anderson, Sandy chamber of commerce Dorner, Fred F.

Bald cypress Description The historic marker for Lady Liberty at Seminole Big Tree Park in 2006. The "companion tree" for The Senator. Lady Liberty is 89 feet high, 10 feet in diameter, and approximately 2,000 years old. Big Tree Park is located at 761 General Hutchinson Parkway in Longwood, Florida. The park lies off of U.S. 17-92, south of Sanford in a swampy, mainly undeveloped area. The park's focal points are two ancient and giant bald cypress trees. The largest is known as the Senator; the other is known as the Senator's Brother. The two trees are possibly named in honor of M. O. Overstreet, a Florida state senator who donated the surrounding land to Seminole County in 1951, although they had their current names as early as the 1920s. The trees were a popular tourist attraction from the 1880s onward. In 1929, former President Calvin Coolidge and his wife, who were frequent visitors to Mt. Dora, visited the trees and dedicated them with a bronze plaque. The plaque was stolen in 1945. Both trees are extremely old and their age is typically given at 3,500 years. The Senator was believed to be the largest bald cypress in Florida; however, questions have been raised concerning the definition of "largest." It appears today that the Senator reigns as the cypress with the largest volume, the total amount of wood above ground. The current measurements may make it the largest bald cypress in the United States. As of 2011, the tree's height has been measured around 118 feet tall. It has been said that prior to the 1928 hurricane, it stood as tall as 160 feet. The Senator was destroyed by fire on January 16, 2012.

Title Florida Citrus Exchange Collection Alternative Title FEC Collection Subject Florida Citrus Exchange Citrus fruit industry--Florida Chase and Company (Sanford, Fla.) Description Chase & Company was established by Joshua Chase and his brother Sydney 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, Florida, 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. 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.

CARLOT DISTRIBUTORS CITRUS FRUITS AND VEGETABLES JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA April 8th 1924. Views to be presented by Chase & Company at the Orlando citrus growers' meeting of April 9th. First:- The low market conditions this season have been brought about by a variety of causes. There has been excess citrus production in Florida and California, and there has also been excess production of apples and all kinds of canned and dried fruits. Consequently, the Florida crop has been called upon to compete not only with its own excess production but the excess and overproduction on all other fruits both green, dried and canned. The opening of the season was handicapped by a very heavy grape crop, mostly from California, whichhad a very material effect on lessening the demand for early grapefruit. PRE-COLORING: Pre-coloring if properly handled is an advantage and not a disadvantage to the Florida citrus industry. If the color is accelerated by ethylene gas, which is the process in vogue in California, the color of the peel is changed from an objectionable green to color of maturity, and if proper judgement has been used in quality, and also if the standard of maturity established by the State and Government is observed, it helps prolong the marketing season for Florida grapefruit. If improperly handled, it is undoubtedly a detriment. This is a matter that should be controlled by a more rigid enforcement of the law and not only by the authorities but by public opinion in each locality. CONTROL: In event 75% or more of the estimated crop is in the hands of one agency, it could be mishandled so that the results would be not better if as good as they have been this season. If the distribution is in the hands of people who are ignorant of National merchandising or fail to properly advertise the product in the markets and sell it to consumer or attempt to place too high a value on the goods, it would interfere with the proper consumptive demand and the results would poor. The control of the crop should mean that those who have charge of the distribution would be in authority to accelerate, retard or completely stop the shipment of any variety where the prospect of results do not hold out the valid hope of at least a return to the grower which will equal the cost of production. With the coming crop as large if not larger than the one that has just gone into market, it will be absolutely necessary to pay stricter attention to the grading and packing of every box. It may be found that through improper cultural methods or some unforeseen disaster a crop is of poor quality or of undesirable sizes. It may be found that 75% of the crop is of good quality and sizes, with 25% of quality and sizes that should not go into the markets and should be left in the groves. Who is to determine this question? The writer believes that the Florida growers should invite the cooperation of the U. S. Department of Agriculture and if all agree to abide by the grading rules, this matter can be determined in that way. CITRUS SIGN-UP-DAY: There is talk of making Thursday, May 1st as Florida Citrus Sign-Up-Day, in an effort to combine 75% of the crop. Who is to determine when this volume of business has been signed up and who is to decide what is to be done with it when it is under contract or agreement? Who is going to be drafted into the service of the growers, to be responsible to them for a satisfactory outcome on the coming crop? Ho w many of you today can agree on three, five or ten men qualified by experience in the business of marketing and distribution 75% or 40,000 carloads of citrus fruit?

Citrus--Florida Citrus fruit industry--Florida Description Chase & Company was established by Joshua Chase and his brother Sydney 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, Florida, 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. 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.

Box 25, Asheville, N. C. Mr. J. C. Chase, 414 Manheim St., Germantown, Philadelphia, Pa. Gentlemen:- FARMERS MARKETING SYSTEM. You will probably recall that a meeting was called in for 9:30 this morning by a state committee of growers to put before the growers and shippers of the state the Farmers Marketing System. Mayor S. Y. Way, of Orlando, welcomed the audience of about four hundred growers and shippers. I would say that there were about 100 or more people there representing shippers, or connected with shipping organizations. Mr. A. E. Pickard, of Orlando, acted as Chairman, and enthusiastically indorsed this new marketing system. He was so enthusiastic in his indorsement that it would lead one to believe that he not only had fruit to sell but has hopes of helping sell somebody elses; that is it would appear that he possibly had a job in view. Mr. Pickard introduced Mr. H. H. Stockfeld, Vice President of the Company, claiming that Mr. Stockfeld had called on Mr. Andrew Mellon, and without any introduction to Mr. Mellon had secured, without collateral, a quarter of a million dollars for the promotion of this new selling scheme that was to help the farmers and growers of the United States. The Chairman also stated that Mr. Stockfeld had brought the Austin car to the United States, and that in spite of the pessimism of many of his friends had put the deal over and made the people of this country like it. He was also introduced as being the man who had introduced non-shatter glass in this country, first to Mr. Ford then to other automobile concerns. From the above writer gathered that Mr. Stockfeld had not delt with highly perishable goods, such as vegetables and citrus fruits. Mr. Stockfeld in beginning his talk stated what he had accomplished in Australia, in organizing the retail grocerymen in a town of about 300,00 people. I do not recall the name of the town. He did not go into the details of the accomplishment, and only spoke in generalities; therefore it was not possible to base an opinion, except that it was a wonderful success. Mr. Stockfeld informed the audience that Mr. L. B. Nutting, Chairman of the Board, had contributed $100,000. for the promotion of this marketing system, for which he did not ask any security or free stock, or the return of principal or payment of interest. I wish more men free with their money to this extent could be found and brought to Florida. Mr. Stockfeld then went into some detail as to the way the system was to work. The fruits or vegetables first shoulf be prepared for loading in the car, and a government inspector should pass on the grade and pack and issue a certificate as to his findings. This certificate, with the amount of vegetables or citrus would be sent to an office of the Company where it would be sent to the different markets by the wonderful teletype machine. This teletype machine, so Mr. Stockfeld informed th esudience, was instantaneous, and could do everything but actually talk. On receipt of this information in the different markets, of which there would be sixty or more as against the present nine or ten auctions, the information would be cataloged and made ready for the buyers to use in bidding on the cars the following morning. These bids would be simultaneously flashed to all parts of the country where teletype machines were in use in their offices.. In this way if a car of vegetables or citrus was being bid on in more than one market all markets would be advised as to what the others were bidding; also the office where the grower was waiting to see how much his fruit or vegetables would bring. Mr. Stockfeld later gave us a demonstration of the way the teletype machine worked with three they had set-up in the Municipal Auditorium. In other words he held a little game of auction, and to some of the growers it might just as well have been auction bridge. After the demonstration of these machines the Chairman invited the people to ask any questions they wanted to. One person asked the question if it would be possible to withdraw his fruit, and not sell it, if the price was not satisfactory. To this Mr. Stockfeld answered "Yes", that a grower could withdraw his fruit, and refuse to accept the offer any time he felt the price was not high enough. Another person asked when they would get their money, and if they would have to let the fruit go out of their possession before they received the money. To this Mr. Stockfeld replied that the money would be available to them within a few hours after the sale, that the fruit would not have to leave their possession before they received the money. Another person asked where the fruit would be held in the meantime ,and if it was not sold the first day it was ready to loaded in the car where it would be held. These last two questions were not answered directly or indirectly, but were very skillfully evaded. Mr. R. P. Burton, from Lake County, asked Mr. Stockfeld what would be the outcome if a car of fruit was sold, and on arrival in the market the buyer found that it did not come up to government inspection which was made in Florida, due to decay or some other conditions which the buyer did not have any control over. To this Mr. Stockfeld answered that it would be entirely up to the buyer, and they would not necessarily have anything more to do with that car of fruit, as they would already have secured the money for it, and turned same over to the grower. There were a number of other questions asked during the meeting up to about twelve o'clock, but most of them were not answered, but evaded by a continuous line of talk and reading of telegrams and recommendations that had been received prior to the introduction of this new system in Florida. People were given the impression that Mr. Attaberry, President of the Pennsylvania Railway, indorsed the system very enthusiastically; that the American Telephone & Telegraph Company indorsed the system very highly. All of these recommendations seemed very natural. In answer to some of the questions letters of recommendations were read rapidly, and without informing the people who they were from, other than that they were prominent, had been in business for a number of years, and understood the situation. The more Mr. Stockfeld talked the more obvious it became that he knew very little, if anything, concerning the subject on which he was talking. Just as the writer was leaving, and before the crowd broke up, Mr. Stockfeld advised Mr. Burton that he had a negative mind, and that only people with negative minds could not grasp the opportunities which this new system made possible to the producers of the state. He said they were in a position where they could begin operating as quick as four days from the time they decided to begin. One grower became so excited, and talked so fast, that he very nearly lost his set of teeth on the floor, but managed to catch them and replace same, and continue his talk. This whole program seemed to be one of promotion. Any one using that system would have to purchase one share of stock. The price of this one share was not named. It is really ridiculous to think that well educated, sound thinking, people could fall for any such scheme, but there are some who really believe in this new marketing system. I believe this about sums up the matter, with the exception of many generalities which were delt with by Mr. Stockfeld, and which meant little or nothing to any one who is familiar with the handling of fruits and vegetables from the field to the market.

Citrus--Florida Citrus fruit industry--Florida Description Chase & Company was established by Joshua Chase and his brother Sydney 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, Florida, 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. 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.

Gainesville, Florida: University of Florida Press: 1960. Transcript CHASE & CO. SANFORD, FLORIDA October 19, 1934 Mr. S. O. Chase P. O. Box 23 Asheville, North Carolina Dear Dad: Attended the meeting in Lakeland yesterday afternoon composed of 96 growers and shippers who united last August in fighting the proposed new Agreement. There were a few other growers of the Lakeland territory present, also representatives of the Atlantic Commission Company, and two new grower-shippers, making a total of 98 now instead of 96. L. P. Kirkland was elected as chairman of the meeting and stated briefly the reason for the meeting, stressing particularly the point that in his opinion an effort was being made by Washington and urged by interests in California more or less at the request of a certain group in Florida to force the Florida citrus industry into national prorating. Mr. Kirkland pointed out that national prorating was unsuited to Florida, because California enjoyed a freight rate which allowed them to put their fruit into the east at $1.17 a box, whereas Florida could not go west of the Mississippi River due to the very high freight rate. He also pointed out that California would want to prorate their Naval crop against our entire crop of oranges, including Valencias, and in this way allow them a very clear and unobstructed noncompetitive market for their Valencias. It was later brought out in the meeting that Florida's freight rate to Seattle and Spokane, Washington, and Portland, Oregon and surrounding territory amounted to $1.91 a box, including refrigeration, and that California, if they wanted to, could place their oranges in Tampa. Florida by rail at $1.17 a box. Mr. Kirkland then asked Judge Holland to review the whole matter of the fight against the Agreement which Washington proposed last August, and the results that had been obtained by the 96 grower-shippers who had fought the matter together, as a unit, and he urged that they all continue to meet the matter in a united effort, as he believed that was the only way to secure recognition in Washington to such an extent that they would listen and give the Florida citrus industry a representative and fair group of grower Control Committee members, which Washington had agreed to do when they met in that city in September, and which Washington has not done, as evidenced by the group of names just received from Washington, and which I gave you as a list in my letter of two days ago. Judge Holland reviewed the matter, beginning with last June up through his last visit to Washington in September. He emphasized the fact that Washington was very much astounded at the united front and effort made by the 96 growers, and that they had not considered this possible before last August. He pointed out that this united action had secured practically every concession that had been asked for, and that the attitude of the Department of Agriculture was entirely different after August, due to the strength shown by the majority of the shippers in the state, representing a decided majority of the fruit. He also stated that it was his personal opinion that the naming of the Grower Control Committee as sent out from Washington was a last effort to try to bluff the industry into national prorating and ram down the throats of the majority what California would like to see and the old Control Committee clique would like to have. He said he he felt reasonably sure that if united effort was continued as in the past would be able to secure a Grower Control Committee that would be fairly selected and in line with what Washington had agreed to do in selecting the Grower Committee. Dr. Aurin was asked to say a few words. He brought out the Tampa Tribune and read part of a statement issued by Commander, wherein Commander said he hoped the independent shippers and buyers would consider for once the growers of the state of Florida. Dr. Aurin said that he was an hundred percent in accord with Commander in regard to that part of his statement, and that he sincerely hoped that all of the shippers present and in the state would consider the poor growers of the state and see that they would not get the Grower Control Committee as handed down by Washington, but one that would be fair to the growers of the state; that it was high time that the continued effort of a certain group to coerce growers into the Exchange be stopped, and that the growers be allowed to ship and sell their fruit to those shippers which they themselves might choose. Dr. Aurin said that, in looking over the group of growers appointed to the committee by Washington, that he could not believe that the leopard had changed its spots any more than if someone told him that Hitler was a friend of the Jews. Howey was called to say a few words, which he did, and a great deal of it amounted to politicings; he tactfully said that he felt that some of the good Democrats present would be making good Republicans by the time the present administration got through trying to run their business for them by groups of people who new nothing about it. He was asked the question as to what he thought the loss would be if Florida was forced into national prorating. Howey very carefully avoided giving his own opinion, but did say what he had heard the loss would be from several different sources, which amounted to anywhere from $250,000 annually to a $1,500,000 annually. He also stated that he had been informed when in Washington by good authorities that some businesses which Washington was trying to run by would-be experts who knew nothing about the businesses or any business were suffering a loss in some instances as high as $7,000,000 a year. We heard next from Jeff Sligh, who was very brief and said that he did approve of Mr. Howey politicing in such meetings. This was all good natured. Sligh did bring out something in regard to what Florida's loss would be if they participated in national prorating for several years. He said the real loss would amount to about $50,000,000 or the citrus industry in Florida. This brought down some real applause, and even Howey nodded his agreement. Several other growers and shippers spoke briefly, one or two stressing the difference of freight rates from California and Florida. Judge holland drew up a motion protesting the appointment of the grower Committee and alternates selected by Washington, which was unanimously approved. W. J. Howey next moved that the chair appoint a committee to form an organization and incorporate same, including the group present and as many more as they could secure for united action in all such matters .The Judge had already prepared a motion which was substituted for Howey's, and, we believe, a very good one. A fully detailed report as to the motions and committee appointed, and the whole meeting, will undoubtedly follow from the Clearing House within the next day or two. The press was present and were told in un mistakable words that the paper would not publish all of what was said at the meeting would never be allowed at a meeting again, and that it would be made known why. It was stated that in the past it has been very noticeable that some of the papers in the state published very damaging and unfair articles pertaining to the growers and shippers meetings in the past by not giving all of the information, and by omitting parts and misconstruing many facts. This was directed, I believe, primarily at the Orlando Sentinel. Their reporter was present, and certainly got red around the ears when he received these instructions. The reporter for the Lakeland paper, which has been so active in the past in getting fair and correct information, was present, and I noticed he remained after the meeting to get some of the details he was unable to catch and record as the meeting progressed. I did not see the SEntinel reporter doing this, and I will be interested to see how the two papers compare. Affectionately yours, SCCjr/b Copy: Mr. J. C.

Clara Millen was the school principal during that year and this class would go on to be Seminole High School's graduating class of 1929. Sanford High School was originally established at 301 West Seventh Street 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.
