AMERICAN FARM BUREAU FEDERATION HAS MILLION MEMBERS IN AMERICA
Organizations in thirty-five states affiliated
HAS HIGH AMBITIONS
WILL SEEK BETTER TRANSPORTATION AND FARMING AND BETTER SELLING METHODS
(By The Associated Press)
Chicago, Nov. 19.
J. R. Howard, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation, announces that the federation has now over a million members and has 35 state organizations affiliated with it. The national federation took permanent form here last spring and established headquarters in Chicago this past summer.
Sketching the character of this newcomer among the national farm organizations, together with its program, Mr. Howard, himself an Iowa farmer, said:
“The federation is an alliance of county farm bureaus into state farm bureau federations and this in turn became federated into a national organization as the American Farm Bureau Federation.
“Its purpose is to work for the economic, social and educational advancement of the farmers of the United States and for the general welfare of the Nation. It is proposed to develop this work by means of bureaus.
Our bureau of agricultural economics and statistics has already been set up. It will make a study of costs of production of the principal agricultural products and will direct and compile statistics in co-operation with the Department of Agriculture, and the various state agencies. This work will give a much better insight into the supply and demand of agricultural products, with the thight that this will lead to more efficient marketing.
Our bureau of transportation is making a study of necessary transportation facilities, both by land and by water, for the marketing of our farm crops. The purpose of this bureau is to get at the real facts in the transportation problem and govern its action accordingly. It proposes to establish rate and traffic files, which have never yet been built up for agricultural products.

SANFORD NEEDS HOMES; MANY PEOPLE ARRIVING; HOUSES VERY SCARCE
Chamber Commerce To Take Up Matter At Once; A Serious Situation
HOME PEOPLE AND VISITORS ARE NEEDING ACCOMMODATIONS IN SANFORD
Anyone living here and noting the many hundreds of new people on the streets every day and seeing the many arrivals at the various Sanford hotels will perceive that Sanford is the stopping place for many people during the season. They come here by the Clyde Line and by the railroads and by autos and coming here stop over maybe for a day or a week or a month just as fancy or business dictates. It all points to one great necessity here now and that is more buildings in which to house not only the winter visitors but the people who come here to stay and the home people even who are out of homes on account of the many transfers in real estate that are taking place every day when people fail to rent homes and are forced to buy them thus dispossessing others who are renting.
It is almost certain that in another year there will be many more apartment houses and one or two hotels added to Sanford lists and many more residences but the crying need is for the present when people are leaving here every day because they cannot find homes. This means not only that the building of homes has been neglected for some time in a ratio commensurate with the demand and it means also that many more people are coming here than ever before.
That there will be many new buildings erected here soon is a settled fact. There are many big projects on foot here that will go a long way toward making Sanford a great city but just now we are confronted with the fact that more places are needed right now if we are to keep the people here who are visitors and to keep even our own people who are being forced out of their houses and will be obliged to get houses here or elsewhere. We cannot afford to either let the visitors leave or the home people leave and something should be done at once by the Chamber of Commerce and the City Commissioners toward getting up temporary homes for the people who are claiming for them so loudly.
Many towns in the state are investigating the question of tents for temporary quarters and a firm on the East Coast is making a specialty of tent cities where all the furniture and equipment for camping out are furnished to a city for a certain sum that would mean a good investment for anyone desiring to take up the plan. There are many vacant lots in the city --- its that are not working and they could be utilized for little money for these tents. In this manner many people could be accommodated comfortably during the winter months and in the spring the situation will be relieved. It would be well for the commercial bodies and the city fathers and all the people to investigate these conditions.

SMALL BOY’S CHANCE.
Various Methods Will Be Found to Get to The Circus.
“Hearts and flowers” if you please professor! Another tradition has been smashed–completely ruined in fact. And there is cause to grieve, for the tradition that is gone is one which has lasted since long before we were boys–or girls, for that matter. Remember in the old days when the circus came to town and you sneaked out of the back door, all glossed up for the day? And, remember how you came home in the afternoon sloppy and muddy and dirty and panting, but happy, happier than you had ever been in your life, simply because you held in one grimy paw a ticket for the circus? Yes, you had carried water for the elephant. You had struggled until you back ached. You had worn blisters on your hands, but you had obtained that coveted ticket.
And here in comes the grief. For the Sparks’ Circus in coming to the city for a one day’s stay, Tuesday, November 23, and when it comes: Breathe it gentley! There will be no carrying of water for the elephants! “What’s the use?” asks Manager Sparks of the circus. “There are hydrants neat the lot, so why break the backs of all the small boys in town? Logical, but sad. For to go back to the old days, it would seem these small boys were quite willing to have their backs broken.
However, there is hope for the small boys who haven’t the money to see the circus. There are always innumerable bills and heralds to be distributed in advance of the show and there are always departments with any well regulated circus that can find work for the small boy on circus day–but trust the small boy for methods of getting into the show. He knows.

MELVILLE COMEDIANS AT TENT THEATRE
The first performance of Melvilles’ Comedians pleased more than two thousand people last night in the big ten thousand dollar tent on the high school campus. Between 500 and 1,000 others were turned away because the management feared that the tent would be overcrowded.
The title of the play was “The Broken Hearts” and that it pleased the audience very much was proven by the hearty applause that greeted every act. Bert Melville, comedian, was the hit of the evenin, but Miss Lillian De Armond and others of the company, also received hearty approval. The company as a whole was good, and is the best that has ever shown in the city.
There were a variety of acts displaying comedians, musicians and actors of much ability. While of course the play by the company of thirty is the headliner at each performance, the audience is chered up and kept from a tiresome wait between acts by a variety of pleasing activities.
Tonight there will be a complete change of program. The headliner will be another comedy-drama which promises to be even better than last night. -Press Note.

Six Kinds of Safety
Have you every paused to consider the safety of the bank where you deposit your money?
The first consideration is the capital, which should be ample to meet the requirements of the community the bank is to serve.
The next question to consider is the officers in charge. They should be men of experience, high character and successful. Without men of ability no institution can succeed.
Then there is the question of confidence. The public should have confidence in the officers and in the bank.
These three principles determine the success of a bank.
We adopted these principles in the outset of our career and we expect to live up to this high standard and increase our usefulness to the community as the years go by.
We offer you:
1st: Large Capital and Working Reserve
2nd: Trained Men in Charge – Men Of Several Years Experience.
3rd: The confidence of the public, which is proven by the daily addition to our line of depositors.
4th: Protection by two examinations each year by the state banking department, two audits each year by an independent recognized public audit company and two sworn statements submitted to the state comptroller by the cashier, giving the bank’s condition in detail. All of which insures regular, systematic and thorough operation of the bank.
5th: The advice of a competent board of directors, who meet who meet with the officers regularly each month and advise them as to the operation of the bank.
6th: Insurance of all deposits every day of the year, this is a protection not commonly found in banks and is an absolute protection for your funds, in addition to all the other usual safeguards.
These are reasons why you should do business with us, and we believe that no bank can offer better inducement.

THE LADIES WITH SPARKS’ CIRCUS ARE ATTRACTIVE
Pretty and attractive women are one of the features of the Sparks’ Circus which is coming to Sanford on Tuesday, Nov. 23rd for a day’s stay on the baseball grounds.
Probably one of the prettiest, as well as one of the cleverest is Irma Conners, who is an exact replica of the world’s famous screen actress Mary Pickford in fact among her associates of the circus she is known as ”The Mary Pickford of the high wire.” Included in the many difficult feats accomplished by this little Miss is the graceful execution of all modern ballroom dances now in vogue.
Then there is dainty Flora Bedini and Bessie Hollis, both equestrienne stars whose beauty adds greatly to their truly wonderful exhibitions of riding. Another of the Sparks galaxy of pretty women is Minnie Thompson, America’s greatest horsewoman and whose likeness has graced the pages of many of the leading magazines and Horse Show publications. Miss Thompson will introduce Caesar, champion high jumping house of the world at both performances in this city and an attempt will be made to lower his own record of 7 feet 4 inches. Of course there any many other beautiful women with the Sparks Circus and they will all be seen in the two mile long street parade at 10:30 a. m.

ADVERTISING IN THE CITY
A party interested in Sanford called up the editor today and wanted to know why the Board of Trade was spending so much money on advertising the city of Sanford when there was no room now for the people who are here and for those who ware coming. This is a pertinent question and one that is confronting every city in the United States and other countries at present. There were no new building constructed during the world war and with the high prices of materials and labor after the war the building program was curtailed. Sanford is no different from the other cities in this respect and up-to-date there has been no remedy suggested that would relieve the congestion this year at least.
At the present price of building homes there are few to be built for investment purposes but in a few months we have reason to believe that material and wages will come down somewhat and there will be plenty of bouses for next season. This will not help those who are looking for houses now, however, and we do not know what can be done to relieve the situation. Some cities in Florida have tried to obtain tents from the government and Los Angeles, California, wanted 5,000 tents but could not get them as the government has no tents for private uses.
As to the Board of Trade taking money from either the city or county for advertising purposes the suggestion is a mistake. The Board of Trade has not printed any advertisements for three years, the last booklets being printed at least that long ago and they are still using them when inquiries are made about Sanford. But the Board of Trade and the Herald cannot lay down on the job of boosting the city regardless of the dearth of houses and neither can the city of Sanford bar the doors of the newcomers regardless of whether they are buying homes and putting other people out.
The Board of Trade is trying to get people here right now who will build houses and hotels and apartment houses and these people certainly would not build houses in a dead town where there was no demand for them. The very fact that so many people are wanting literature about Sanford from the Board of Trade demonstrates more than any other one thing that this city is growing and is making people inquire about it. If it was dead and had plenty of vacant stores and houses as it had in the past it would be a dead town sure enough and if the people here would rather have it dead than alive and hustling then they can quit advertising and quit looking for new blood and new people and winter visitors and stop everything and make it a grave yard – only those days are past and we are not stopping advertising, nor barring the gates or doing any of the medieval stunts that were pulled off here years ago when it was the fashion to close the gates of the city against all new people and against all improvements.
Dead towns have plenty of empty houses.
Live and growing cities never have enough vacant houses to supply the demand.
Sanford is a live one and with the assistance of the new Chamber of Commerce will continue to be a live one and those who can only see it from one angle now will be the first ones to profit by the boosting of the city by the men who have always boosted it and having always boosted it they know more about the actual needs of the city than those who have not been active members and done their part in keeping the city moving.
And meantime there will be a way whereby more houses will be built to accommodate all the people before another season.

CHAIRMAN FOREST LAKE
The State Road Department under the leadership of Forest Lake, of Sanford, is doing things, and as a result it is receiving the compliments and respect of the people of the state. Even those who would rather the state road department would do things other than those it is doing are pleased to see the pep and spine that Mr. Lake has injected into the body which unquestionably is one of the most important departments of the entire state government, and should never be hampered in its work by efforts of the legislature to abolish it. – St. Augustine Record.
The above is a sample of the many nice things that are being said of Mr. Lake by the newspapers of the state. But we all have a right to expect much of the new chairman. Here in the fourth district he has made several unsuccessful campaigns for congress and made considerable impression upon the voters along that line. Now he will have an opportunity to demonstrate his business ability to the people of the entire state, and we believe he will make good. The legislature will never be permitted to abolish the road department so long as it is making good. – Melbourne Times

AMERICAN FARM BUREAU FEDERATION HAS MILLION MEMBERS IN AMERICA
Organizations in thirty-five states affiliated
HAS HIGH AMBITIONS
WILL SEEK BETTER TRANSPORTATION AND FARMING AND BETTER SELLING METHODS
(By The Associated Press)
Chicago, Nov. 19.
J. R. Howard, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation, announces that the federation has now over a million members and has 35 state organizations affiliated with it. The national federation took permanent form here last spring and established headquarters in Chicago this past summer.
Sketching the character of this newcomer among the national farm organizations, together with its program, Mr. Howard, himself an Iowa farmer, said:
“The federation is an alliance of county farm bureaus into state farm bureau federations and this in turn became federated into a national organization as the American Farm Bureau Federation.
“Its purpose is to work for the economic, social and educational advancement of the farmers of the United States and for the general welfare of the Nation. It is proposed to develop this work by means of bureaus.
Our bureau of agricultural economics and statistics has already been set up. It will make a study of costs of production of the principal agricultural products and will direct and compile statistics in co-operation with the Department of Agriculture, and the various state agencies. This work will give a much better insight into the supply and demand of agricultural products, with the thight that this will lead to more efficient marketing.
Our bureau of transportation is making a study of necessary transportation facilities, both by land and by water, for the marketing of our farm crops. The purpose of this bureau is to get at the real facts in the transportation problem and govern its action accordingly. It proposes to establish rate and traffic files, which have never yet been built up for agricultural products.

SANFORD NEEDS HOMES; MANY PEOPLE ARRIVING; HOUSES VERY SCARCE
Chamber Commerce To Take Up Matter At Once; A Serious Situation
HOME PEOPLE AND VISITORS ARE NEEDING ACCOMMODATIONS IN SANFORD
Anyone living here and noting the many hundreds of new people on the streets every day and seeing the many arrivals at the various Sanford hotels will perceive that Sanford is the stopping place for many people during the season. They come here by the Clyde Line and by the railroads and by autos and coming here stop over maybe for a day or a week or a month just as fancy or business dictates. It all points to one great necessity here now and that is more buildings in which to house not only the winter visitors but the people who come here to stay and the home people even who are out of homes on account of the many transfers in real estate that are taking place every day when people fail to rent homes and are forced to buy them thus dispossessing others who are renting.
It is almost certain that in another year there will be many more apartment houses and one or two hotels added to Sanford lists and many more residences but the crying need is for the present when people are leaving here every day because they cannot find homes. This means not only that the building of homes has been neglected for some time in a ratio commensurate with the demand and it means also that many more people are coming here than ever before.
That there will be many new buildings erected here soon is a settled fact. There are many big projects on foot here that will go a long way toward making Sanford a great city but just now we are confronted with the fact that more places are needed right now if we are to keep the people here who are visitors and to keep even our own people who are being forced out of their houses and will be obliged to get houses here or elsewhere. We cannot afford to either let the visitors leave or the home people leave and something should be done at once by the Chamber of Commerce and the City Commissioners toward getting up temporary homes for the people who are claiming for them so loudly.
Many towns in the state are investigating the question of tents for temporary quarters and a firm on the East Coast is making a specialty of tent cities where all the furniture and equipment for camping out are furnished to a city for a certain sum that would mean a good investment for anyone desiring to take up the plan. There are many vacant lots in the city --- its that are not working and they could be utilized for little money for these tents. In this manner many people could be accommodated comfortably during the winter months and in the spring the situation will be relieved. It would be well for the commercial bodies and the city fathers and all the people to investigate these conditions.

SMALL BOY’S CHANCE.
Various Methods Will Be Found to Get to The Circus.
“Hearts and flowers” if you please professor! Another tradition has been smashed–completely ruined in fact. And there is cause to grieve, for the tradition that is gone is one which has lasted since long before we were boys–or girls, for that matter. Remember in the old days when the circus came to town and you sneaked out of the back door, all glossed up for the day? And, remember how you came home in the afternoon sloppy and muddy and dirty and panting, but happy, happier than you had ever been in your life, simply because you held in one grimy paw a ticket for the circus? Yes, you had carried water for the elephant. You had struggled until you back ached. You had worn blisters on your hands, but you had obtained that coveted ticket.
And here in comes the grief. For the Sparks’ Circus in coming to the city for a one day’s stay, Tuesday, November 23, and when it comes: Breathe it gentley! There will be no carrying of water for the elephants! “What’s the use?” asks Manager Sparks of the circus. “There are hydrants neat the lot, so why break the backs of all the small boys in town? Logical, but sad. For to go back to the old days, it would seem these small boys were quite willing to have their backs broken.
However, there is hope for the small boys who haven’t the money to see the circus. There are always innumerable bills and heralds to be distributed in advance of the show and there are always departments with any well regulated circus that can find work for the small boy on circus day–but trust the small boy for methods of getting into the show. He knows.

MELVILLE COMEDIANS AT TENT THEATRE
The first performance of Melvilles’ Comedians pleased more than two thousand people last night in the big ten thousand dollar tent on the high school campus. Between 500 and 1,000 others were turned away because the management feared that the tent would be overcrowded.
The title of the play was “The Broken Hearts” and that it pleased the audience very much was proven by the hearty applause that greeted every act. Bert Melville, comedian, was the hit of the evenin, but Miss Lillian De Armond and others of the company, also received hearty approval. The company as a whole was good, and is the best that has ever shown in the city.
There were a variety of acts displaying comedians, musicians and actors of much ability. While of course the play by the company of thirty is the headliner at each performance, the audience is chered up and kept from a tiresome wait between acts by a variety of pleasing activities.
Tonight there will be a complete change of program. The headliner will be another comedy-drama which promises to be even better than last night. -Press Note.

Six Kinds of Safety
Have you every paused to consider the safety of the bank where you deposit your money?
The first consideration is the capital, which should be ample to meet the requirements of the community the bank is to serve.
The next question to consider is the officers in charge. They should be men of experience, high character and successful. Without men of ability no institution can succeed.
Then there is the question of confidence. The public should have confidence in the officers and in the bank.
These three principles determine the success of a bank.
We adopted these principles in the outset of our career and we expect to live up to this high standard and increase our usefulness to the community as the years go by.
We offer you:
1st: Large Capital and Working Reserve
2nd: Trained Men in Charge – Men Of Several Years Experience.
3rd: The confidence of the public, which is proven by the daily addition to our line of depositors.
4th: Protection by two examinations each year by the state banking department, two audits each year by an independent recognized public audit company and two sworn statements submitted to the state comptroller by the cashier, giving the bank’s condition in detail. All of which insures regular, systematic and thorough operation of the bank.
5th: The advice of a competent board of directors, who meet who meet with the officers regularly each month and advise them as to the operation of the bank.
6th: Insurance of all deposits every day of the year, this is a protection not commonly found in banks and is an absolute protection for your funds, in addition to all the other usual safeguards.
These are reasons why you should do business with us, and we believe that no bank can offer better inducement.

THE LADIES WITH SPARKS’ CIRCUS ARE ATTRACTIVE
Pretty and attractive women are one of the features of the Sparks’ Circus which is coming to Sanford on Tuesday, Nov. 23rd for a day’s stay on the baseball grounds.
Probably one of the prettiest, as well as one of the cleverest is Irma Conners, who is an exact replica of the world’s famous screen actress Mary Pickford in fact among her associates of the circus she is known as ”The Mary Pickford of the high wire.” Included in the many difficult feats accomplished by this little Miss is the graceful execution of all modern ballroom dances now in vogue.
Then there is dainty Flora Bedini and Bessie Hollis, both equestrienne stars whose beauty adds greatly to their truly wonderful exhibitions of riding. Another of the Sparks galaxy of pretty women is Minnie Thompson, America’s greatest horsewoman and whose likeness has graced the pages of many of the leading magazines and Horse Show publications. Miss Thompson will introduce Caesar, champion high jumping house of the world at both performances in this city and an attempt will be made to lower his own record of 7 feet 4 inches. Of course there any many other beautiful women with the Sparks Circus and they will all be seen in the two mile long street parade at 10:30 a. m.

ADVERTISING IN THE CITY
A party interested in Sanford called up the editor today and wanted to know why the Board of Trade was spending so much money on advertising the city of Sanford when there was no room now for the people who are here and for those who ware coming. This is a pertinent question and one that is confronting every city in the United States and other countries at present. There were no new building constructed during the world war and with the high prices of materials and labor after the war the building program was curtailed. Sanford is no different from the other cities in this respect and up-to-date there has been no remedy suggested that would relieve the congestion this year at least.
At the present price of building homes there are few to be built for investment purposes but in a few months we have reason to believe that material and wages will come down somewhat and there will be plenty of bouses for next season. This will not help those who are looking for houses now, however, and we do not know what can be done to relieve the situation. Some cities in Florida have tried to obtain tents from the government and Los Angeles, California, wanted 5,000 tents but could not get them as the government has no tents for private uses.
As to the Board of Trade taking money from either the city or county for advertising purposes the suggestion is a mistake. The Board of Trade has not printed any advertisements for three years, the last booklets being printed at least that long ago and they are still using them when inquiries are made about Sanford. But the Board of Trade and the Herald cannot lay down on the job of boosting the city regardless of the dearth of houses and neither can the city of Sanford bar the doors of the newcomers regardless of whether they are buying homes and putting other people out.
The Board of Trade is trying to get people here right now who will build houses and hotels and apartment houses and these people certainly would not build houses in a dead town where there was no demand for them. The very fact that so many people are wanting literature about Sanford from the Board of Trade demonstrates more than any other one thing that this city is growing and is making people inquire about it. If it was dead and had plenty of vacant stores and houses as it had in the past it would be a dead town sure enough and if the people here would rather have it dead than alive and hustling then they can quit advertising and quit looking for new blood and new people and winter visitors and stop everything and make it a grave yard – only those days are past and we are not stopping advertising, nor barring the gates or doing any of the medieval stunts that were pulled off here years ago when it was the fashion to close the gates of the city against all new people and against all improvements.
Dead towns have plenty of empty houses.
Live and growing cities never have enough vacant houses to supply the demand.
Sanford is a live one and with the assistance of the new Chamber of Commerce will continue to be a live one and those who can only see it from one angle now will be the first ones to profit by the boosting of the city by the men who have always boosted it and having always boosted it they know more about the actual needs of the city than those who have not been active members and done their part in keeping the city moving.
And meantime there will be a way whereby more houses will be built to accommodate all the people before another season.

CHAIRMAN FOREST LAKE
The State Road Department under the leadership of Forest Lake, of Sanford, is doing things, and as a result it is receiving the compliments and respect of the people of the state. Even those who would rather the state road department would do things other than those it is doing are pleased to see the pep and spine that Mr. Lake has injected into the body which unquestionably is one of the most important departments of the entire state government, and should never be hampered in its work by efforts of the legislature to abolish it. – St. Augustine Record.
The above is a sample of the many nice things that are being said of Mr. Lake by the newspapers of the state. But we all have a right to expect much of the new chairman. Here in the fourth district he has made several unsuccessful campaigns for congress and made considerable impression upon the voters along that line. Now he will have an opportunity to demonstrate his business ability to the people of the entire state, and we believe he will make good. The legislature will never be permitted to abolish the road department so long as it is making good. – Melbourne Times

AMERICAN FARM BUREAU FEDERATION HAS MILLION MEMBERS IN AMERICA
Organizations in thirty-five states affiliated
HAS HIGH AMBITIONS
WILL SEEK BETTER TRANSPORTATION AND FARMING AND BETTER SELLING METHODS
(By The Associated Press)
Chicago, Nov. 19.
J. R. Howard, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation, announces that the federation has now over a million members and has 35 state organizations affiliated with it. The national federation took permanent form here last spring and established headquarters in Chicago this past summer.
Sketching the character of this newcomer among the national farm organizations, together with its program, Mr. Howard, himself an Iowa farmer, said:
“The federation is an alliance of county farm bureaus into state farm bureau federations and this in turn became federated into a national organization as the American Farm Bureau Federation.
“Its purpose is to work for the economic, social and educational advancement of the farmers of the United States and for the general welfare of the Nation. It is proposed to develop this work by means of bureaus.
Our bureau of agricultural economics and statistics has already been set up. It will make a study of costs of production of the principal agricultural products and will direct and compile statistics in co-operation with the Department of Agriculture, and the various state agencies. This work will give a much better insight into the supply and demand of agricultural products, with the thight that this will lead to more efficient marketing.
Our bureau of transportation is making a study of necessary transportation facilities, both by land and by water, for the marketing of our farm crops. The purpose of this bureau is to get at the real facts in the transportation problem and govern its action accordingly. It proposes to establish rate and traffic files, which have never yet been built up for agricultural products.

Florida Fruit Shipments Equal Last Year’s Output
Jacksonville, Nov. 19.
Up to the end of last week, the Florida citrus fruit movement had totaled 2,155 cars compared with 2,268 cars to the corresponding date last year. The grapefruit movement of 1,489 care to that time was only 169 cars behind the movement to the same date last year.
The orange movement has already passed that of last season, and had 39 cars to the good at the close of the week. There were 353 cars of grapefruit shipped last week and but 353 cars last season during the corresponding time. Oranges totaling 365 cars were shipped last week against 209 a year ago. Considering the late beginning of the citrus fruit movement this year the weekly output is looked upon with no small degree of pride.
Weather is becoming more favorable as the season advances but more cold nights are needed to produce the color, especially on oranges. Below is given the carload movement of both fruits to date with figures showing shipments to corresponding dates last season:
Grapefruit
Shipments up to last Saturday 1,489
Same period in 1919 1,641
For week ending November 5 353
For the same days last week 334
First three days this week 217
For same days last year 100

SANFORD NEEDS HOMES; MANY PEOPLE ARRIVING; HOUSES VERY SCARCE
Chamber Commerce To Take Up Matter At Once; A Serious Situation
HOME PEOPLE AND VISITORS ARE NEEDING ACCOMMODATIONS IN SANFORD
Anyone living here and noting the many hundreds of new people on the streets every day and seeing the many arrivals at the various Sanford hotels will perceive that Sanford is the stopping place for many people during the season. They come here by the Clyde Line and by the railroads and by autos and coming here stop over maybe for a day or a week or a month just as fancy or business dictates. It all points to one great necessity here now and that is more buildings in which to house not only the winter visitors but the people who come here to stay and the home people even who are out of homes on account of the many transfers in real estate that are taking place every day when people fail to rent homes and are forced to buy them thus dispossessing others who are renting.
It is almost certain that in another year there will be many more apartment houses and one or two hotels added to Sanford lists and many more residences but the crying need is for the present when people are leaving here every day because they cannot find homes. This means not only that the building of homes has been neglected for some time in a ratio commensurate with the demand and it means also that many more people are coming here than ever before.
That there will be many new buildings erected here soon is a settled fact. There are many big projects on foot here that will go a long way toward making Sanford a great city but just now we are confronted with the fact that more places are needed right now if we are to keep the people here who are visitors and to keep even our own people who are being forced out of their houses and will be obliged to get houses here or elsewhere. We cannot afford to either let the visitors leave or the home people leave and something should be done at once by the Chamber of Commerce and the City Commissioners toward getting up temporary homes for the people who are claiming for them so loudly.
Many towns in the state are investigating the question of tents for temporary quarters and a firm on the East Coast is making a specialty of tent cities where all the furniture and equipment for camping out are furnished to a city for a certain sum that would mean a good investment for anyone desiring to take up the plan. There are many vacant lots in the city --- its that are not working and they could be utilized for little money for these tents. In this manner many people could be accommodated comfortably during the winter months and in the spring the situation will be relieved. It would be well for the commercial bodies and the city fathers and all the people to investigate these conditions.

SMALL BOY’S CHANCE.
Various Methods Will Be Found to Get to The Circus.
“Hearts and flowers” if you please professor! Another tradition has been smashed–completely ruined in fact. And there is cause to grieve, for the tradition that is gone is one which has lasted since long before we were boys–or girls, for that matter. Remember in the old days when the circus came to town and you sneaked out of the back door, all glossed up for the day? And, remember how you came home in the afternoon sloppy and muddy and dirty and panting, but happy, happier than you had ever been in your life, simply because you held in one grimy paw a ticket for the circus? Yes, you had carried water for the elephant. You had struggled until you back ached. You had worn blisters on your hands, but you had obtained that coveted ticket.
And here in comes the grief. For the Sparks’ Circus in coming to the city for a one day’s stay, Tuesday, November 23, and when it comes: Breathe it gentley! There will be no carrying of water for the elephants! “What’s the use?” asks Manager Sparks of the circus. “There are hydrants neat the lot, so why break the backs of all the small boys in town? Logical, but sad. For to go back to the old days, it would seem these small boys were quite willing to have their backs broken.
However, there is hope for the small boys who haven’t the money to see the circus. There are always innumerable bills and heralds to be distributed in advance of the show and there are always departments with any well regulated circus that can find work for the small boy on circus day–but trust the small boy for methods of getting into the show. He knows.

Too bad all “show folks” are not like Bert Melville and his popular company, who at present are playing to capacity business here – they deserve it. They are presenting clean, up-to-date plays, interspersed between the acts with Variety Vaudeville that please the most fastidious.

MELVILLE COMEDIANS AT TENT THEATRE
The first performance of Melvilles’ Comedians pleased more than two thousand people last night in the big ten thousand dollar tent on the high school campus. Between 500 and 1,000 others were turned away because the management feared that the tent would be overcrowded.
The title of the play was “The Broken Hearts” and that it pleased the audience very much was proven by the hearty applause that greeted every act. Bert Melville, comedian, was the hit of the evenin, but Miss Lillian De Armond and others of the company, also received hearty approval. The company as a whole was good, and is the best that has ever shown in the city.
There were a variety of acts displaying comedians, musicians and actors of much ability. While of course the play by the company of thirty is the headliner at each performance, the audience is chered up and kept from a tiresome wait between acts by a variety of pleasing activities.
Tonight there will be a complete change of program. The headliner will be another comedy-drama which promises to be even better than last night. -Press Note.

Six Kinds of Safety
Have you every paused to consider the safety of the bank where you deposit your money?
The first consideration is the capital, which should be ample to meet the requirements of the community the bank is to serve.
The next question to consider is the officers in charge. They should be men of experience, high character and successful. Without men of ability no institution can succeed.
Then there is the question of confidence. The public should have confidence in the officers and in the bank.
These three principles determine the success of a bank.
We adopted these principles in the outset of our career and we expect to live up to this high standard and increase our usefulness to the community as the years go by.
We offer you:
1st: Large Capital and Working Reserve
2nd: Trained Men in Charge – Men Of Several Years Experience.
3rd: The confidence of the public, which is proven by the daily addition to our line of depositors.
4th: Protection by two examinations each year by the state banking department, two audits each year by an independent recognized public audit company and two sworn statements submitted to the state comptroller by the cashier, giving the bank’s condition in detail. All of which insures regular, systematic and thorough operation of the bank.
5th: The advice of a competent board of directors, who meet who meet with the officers regularly each month and advise them as to the operation of the bank.
6th: Insurance of all deposits every day of the year, this is a protection not commonly found in banks and is an absolute protection for your funds, in addition to all the other usual safeguards.
These are reasons why you should do business with us, and we believe that no bank can offer better inducement.

THE LADIES WITH SPARKS’ CIRCUS ARE ATTRACTIVE
Pretty and attractive women are one of the features of the Sparks’ Circus which is coming to Sanford on Tuesday, Nov. 23rd for a day’s stay on the baseball grounds.
Probably one of the prettiest, as well as one of the cleverest is Irma Conners, who is an exact replica of the world’s famous screen actress Mary Pickford in fact among her associates of the circus she is known as ”The Mary Pickford of the high wire.” Included in the many difficult feats accomplished by this little Miss is the graceful execution of all modern ballroom dances now in vogue.
Then there is dainty Flora Bedini and Bessie Hollis, both equestrienne stars whose beauty adds greatly to their truly wonderful exhibitions of riding. Another of the Sparks galaxy of pretty women is Minnie Thompson, America’s greatest horsewoman and whose likeness has graced the pages of many of the leading magazines and Horse Show publications. Miss Thompson will introduce Caesar, champion high jumping house of the world at both performances in this city and an attempt will be made to lower his own record of 7 feet 4 inches. Of course there any many other beautiful women with the Sparks Circus and they will all be seen in the two mile long street parade at 10:30 a. m.

ADVERTISING IN THE CITY
A party interested in Sanford called up the editor today and wanted to know why the Board of Trade was spending so much money on advertising the city of Sanford when there was no room now for the people who are here and for those who ware coming. This is a pertinent question and one that is confronting every city in the United States and other countries at present. There were no new building constructed during the world war and with the high prices of materials and labor after the war the building program was curtailed. Sanford is no different from the other cities in this respect and up-to-date there has been no remedy suggested that would relieve the congestion this year at least.
At the present price of building homes there are few to be built for investment purposes but in a few months we have reason to believe that material and wages will come down somewhat and there will be plenty of bouses for next season. This will not help those who are looking for houses now, however, and we do not know what can be done to relieve the situation. Some cities in Florida have tried to obtain tents from the government and Los Angeles, California, wanted 5,000 tents but could not get them as the government has no tents for private uses.
As to the Board of Trade taking money from either the city or county for advertising purposes the suggestion is a mistake. The Board of Trade has not printed any advertisements for three years, the last booklets being printed at least that long ago and they are still using them when inquiries are made about Sanford. But the Board of Trade and the Herald cannot lay down on the job of boosting the city regardless of the dearth of houses and neither can the city of Sanford bar the doors of the newcomers regardless of whether they are buying homes and putting other people out.
The Board of Trade is trying to get people here right now who will build houses and hotels and apartment houses and these people certainly would not build houses in a dead town where there was no demand for them. The very fact that so many people are wanting literature about Sanford from the Board of Trade demonstrates more than any other one thing that this city is growing and is making people inquire about it. If it was dead and had plenty of vacant stores and houses as it had in the past it would be a dead town sure enough and if the people here would rather have it dead than alive and hustling then they can quit advertising and quit looking for new blood and new people and winter visitors and stop everything and make it a grave yard – only those days are past and we are not stopping advertising, nor barring the gates or doing any of the medieval stunts that were pulled off here years ago when it was the fashion to close the gates of the city against all new people and against all improvements.
Dead towns have plenty of empty houses.
Live and growing cities never have enough vacant houses to supply the demand.
Sanford is a live one and with the assistance of the new Chamber of Commerce will continue to be a live one and those who can only see it from one angle now will be the first ones to profit by the boosting of the city by the men who have always boosted it and having always boosted it they know more about the actual needs of the city than those who have not been active members and done their part in keeping the city moving.
And meantime there will be a way whereby more houses will be built to accommodate all the people before another season.

CHAIRMAN FOREST LAKE
The State Road Department under the leadership of Forest Lake, of Sanford, is doing things, and as a result it is receiving the compliments and respect of the people of the state. Even those who would rather the state road department would do things other than those it is doing are pleased to see the pep and spine that Mr. Lake has injected into the body which unquestionably is one of the most important departments of the entire state government, and should never be hampered in its work by efforts of the legislature to abolish it. – St. Augustine Record.
The above is a sample of the many nice things that are being said of Mr. Lake by the newspapers of the state. But we all have a right to expect much of the new chairman. Here in the fourth district he has made several unsuccessful campaigns for congress and made considerable impression upon the voters along that line. Now he will have an opportunity to demonstrate his business ability to the people of the entire state, and we believe he will make good. The legislature will never be permitted to abolish the road department so long as it is making good. – Melbourne Times

AMERICAN FARM BUREAU FEDERATION HAS MILLION MEMBERS IN AMERICA
Organizations in thirty-five states affiliated
HAS HIGH AMBITIONS
WILL SEEK BETTER TRANSPORTATION AND FARMING AND BETTER SELLING METHODS
(By The Associated Press)
Chicago, Nov. 19.
J. R. Howard, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation, announces that the federation has now over a million members and has 35 state organizations affiliated with it. The national federation took permanent form here last spring and established headquarters in Chicago this past summer.
Sketching the character of this newcomer among the national farm organizations, together with its program, Mr. Howard, himself an Iowa farmer, said:
“The federation is an alliance of county farm bureaus into state farm bureau federations and this in turn became federated into a national organization as the American Farm Bureau Federation.
“Its purpose is to work for the economic, social and educational advancement of the farmers of the United States and for the general welfare of the Nation. It is proposed to develop this work by means of bureaus.
Our bureau of agricultural economics and statistics has already been set up. It will make a study of costs of production of the principal agricultural products and will direct and compile statistics in co-operation with the Department of Agriculture, and the various state agencies. This work will give a much better insight into the supply and demand of agricultural products, with the thight that this will lead to more efficient marketing.
Our bureau of transportation is making a study of necessary transportation facilities, both by land and by water, for the marketing of our farm crops. The purpose of this bureau is to get at the real facts in the transportation problem and govern its action accordingly. It proposes to establish rate and traffic files, which have never yet been built up for agricultural products.

Florida Fruit Shipments Equal Last Year’s Output
Jacksonville, Nov. 19.
Up to the end of last week, the Florida citrus fruit movement had totaled 2,155 cars compared with 2,268 cars to the corresponding date last year. The grapefruit movement of 1,489 care to that time was only 169 cars behind the movement to the same date last year.
The orange movement has already passed that of last season, and had 39 cars to the good at the close of the week. There were 353 cars of grapefruit shipped last week and but 353 cars last season during the corresponding time. Oranges totaling 365 cars were shipped last week against 209 a year ago.

SANFORD NEEDS HOMES; MANY PEOPLE ARRIVING; HOUSES VERY SCARCE
Chamber Commerce To Take Up Matter At Once; A Serious Situation
HOME PEOPLE AND VISITORS ARE NEEDING ACCOMMODATIONS IN SANFORD
Anyone living here and noting the many hundreds of new people on the streets every day and seeing the many arrivals at the various Sanford hotels will perceive that Sanford is the stopping place for many people during the season. They come here by the Clyde Line and by the railroads and by autos and coming here stop over maybe for a day or a week or a month just as fancy or business dictates. It all points to one great necessity here now and that is more buildings in which to house not only the winter visitors but the people who come here to stay and the home people even who are out of homes on account of the many transfers in real estate that are taking place every day when people fail to rent homes and are forced to buy them thus dispossessing others who are renting.
It is almost certain that in another year there will be many more apartment houses and one or two hotels added to Sanford lists and many more residences but the crying need is for the present when people are leaving here every day because they cannot find homes. This means not only that the building of homes has been neglected for some time in a ratio commensurate with the demand and it means also that many more people are coming here than ever before.
That there will be many new buildings erected here soon is a settled fact. There are many big projects on foot here that will go a long way toward making Sanford a great city but just now we are confronted with the fact that more places are needed right now if we are to keep the people here who are visitors and to keep even our own people who are being forced out of their houses and will be obliged to get houses here or elsewhere. We cannot afford to either let the visitors leave or the home people leave and something should be done at once by the Chamber of Commerce and the City Commissioners toward getting up temporary homes for the people who are claiming for them so loudly.
Many towns in the state are investigating the question of tents for temporary quarters and a firm on the East Coast is making a specialty of tent cities where all the furniture and equipment for camping out are furnished to a city for a certain sum that would mean a good investment for anyone desiring to take up the plan. There are many vacant lots in the city --- its that are not working and they could be utilized for little money for these tents. In this manner many people could be accommodated comfortably during the winter months and in the spring the situation will be relieved. It would be well for the commercial bodies and the city fathers and all the people to investigate these conditions.

SMALL BOY’S CHANCE.
Various Methods Will Be Found to Get to The Circus.
“Hearts and flowers” if you please professor! Another tradition has been smashed–completely ruined in fact. And there is cause to grieve, for the tradition that is gone is one which has lasted since long before we were boys–or girls, for that matter. Remember in the old days when the circus came to town and you sneaked out of the back door, all glossed up for the day? And, remember how you came home in the afternoon sloppy and muddy and dirty and panting, but happy, happier than you had ever been in your life, simply because you held in one grimy paw a ticket for the circus? Yes, you had carried water for the elephant. You had struggled until you back ached. You had worn blisters on your hands, but you had obtained that coveted ticket.
And here in comes the grief. For the Sparks’ Circus in coming to the city for a one day’s stay, Tuesday, November 23, and when it comes: Breathe it gentley! There will be no carrying of water for the elephants! “What’s the use?” asks Manager Sparks of the circus. “There are hydrants neat the lot, so why break the backs of all the small boys in town? Logical, but sad. For to go back to the old days, it would seem these small boys were quite willing to have their backs broken.
However, there is hope for the small boys who haven’t the money to see the circus. There are always innumerable bills and heralds to be distributed in advance of the show and there are always departments with any well regulated circus that can find work for the small boy on circus day–but trust the small boy for methods of getting into the show. He knows.

KIWANIS CLUB ENDORSES MELVILLE’S COMEDIANS
(By “JONESEY” – O.B. Secretary Kiwanis Club of Tampa)
Too bad all “show folks” are not like Bert Melville and his popular company, who at present are playing to capacity business here – they deserve it. They are presenting clean, up-to-date plays, interspersed between the acts with Variety Vaudeville that please the most fastidious. Kiwanis is strong for show folks of Mr. Melville’s type, and Tampa should be. – From Kiwanis Magazine.

MELVILLE COMEDIANS AT TENT THEATRE
The first performance of Melvilles’ Comedians pleased more than two thousand people last night in the big ten thousand dollar tent on the high school campus. Between 500 and 1,000 others were turned away because the management feared that the tent would be overcrowded.
The title of the play was “The Broken Hearts” and that it pleased the audience very much was proven by the hearty applause that greeted every act. Bert Melville, comedian, was the hit of the evenin, but Miss Lillian De Armond and others of the company, also received hearty approval. The company as a whole was good, and is the best that has ever shown in the city.
There were a variety of acts displaying comedians, musicians and actors of much ability. While of course the play by the company of thirty is the headliner at each performance, the audience is chered up and kept from a tiresome wait between acts by a variety of pleasing activities.
Tonight there will be a complete change of program. The headliner will be another comedy-drama which promises to be even better than last night. -Press Note.

BUILDING IN LONGWOOD
R. A. Jenkins, of Longwood, was in the city today and reports that city as being filled with new people and everything progressing. They are having a difficult time getting the newcomers settled in houses and many new homes are being built as a consequence. Among them are the following:
Will Woodcock is building a nice bungalow; E. E. Hardy is building a most comfortable home and Conner Williamson is building a nice six room house. Several other Longwood men are contemplating building and it is also said that a store room or two would be built soon.

Six Kinds of Safety
Have you every paused to consider the safety of the bank where you deposit your money?
The first consideration is the capital, which should be ample to meet the requirements of the community the bank is to serve.
The next question to consider is the officers in charge. They should be men of experience, high character and successful. Without men of ability no institution can succeed.
Then there is the question of confidence. The public should have confidence in the officers and in the bank.
These three principles determine the success of a bank.
We adopted these principles in the outset of our career and we expect to live up to this high standard and increase our usefulness to the community as the years go by.
We offer you:
1st: Large Capital and Working Reserve
2nd: Trained Men in Charge – Men Of Several Years Experience.
3rd: The confidence of the public, which is proven by the daily addition to our line of depositors.
4th: Protection by two examinations each year by the state banking department, two audits each year by an independent recognized public audit company and two sworn statements submitted to the state comptroller by the cashier, giving the bank’s condition in detail. All of which insures regular, systematic and thorough operation of the bank.
5th: The advice of a competent board of directors, who meet who meet with the officers regularly each month and advise them as to the operation of the bank.
6th: Insurance of all deposits every day of the year, this is a protection not commonly found in banks and is an absolute protection for your funds, in addition to all the other usual safeguards.
These are reasons why you should do business with us, and we believe that no bank can offer better inducement.

THE LADIES WITH SPARKS’ CIRCUS ARE ATTRACTIVE
Pretty and attractive women are one of the features of the Sparks’ Circus which is coming to Sanford on Tuesday, Nov. 23rd for a day’s stay on the baseball grounds.
Probably one of the prettiest, as well as one of the cleverest is Irma Conners, who is an exact replica of the world’s famous screen actress Mary Pickford in fact among her associates of the circus she is known as ”The Mary Pickford of the high wire.” Included in the many difficult feats accomplished by this little Miss is the graceful execution of all modern ballroom dances now in vogue.
Then there is dainty Flora Bedini and Bessie Hollis, both equestrienne stars whose beauty adds greatly to their truly wonderful exhibitions of riding. Another of the Sparks galaxy of pretty women is Minnie Thompson, America’s greatest horsewoman and whose likeness has graced the pages of many of the leading magazines and Horse Show publications. Miss Thompson will introduce Caesar, champion high jumping house of the world at both performances in this city and an attempt will be made to lower his own record of 7 feet 4 inches. Of course there any many other beautiful women with the Sparks Circus and they will all be seen in the two mile long street parade at 10:30 a. m.

ADVERTISING IN THE CITY
A party interested in Sanford called up the editor today and wanted to know why the Board of Trade was spending so much money on advertising the city of Sanford when there was no room now for the people who are here and for those who ware coming. This is a pertinent question and one that is confronting every city in the United States and other countries at present. There were no new building constructed during the world war and with the high prices of materials and labor after the war the building program was curtailed. Sanford is no different from the other cities in this respect and up-to-date there has been no remedy suggested that would relieve the congestion this year at least.
At the present price of building homes there are few to be built for investment purposes but in a few months we have reason to believe that material and wages will come down somewhat and there will be plenty of bouses for next season. This will not help those who are looking for houses now, however, and we do not know what can be done to relieve the situation. Some cities in Florida have tried to obtain tents from the government and Los Angeles, California, wanted 5,000 tents but could not get them as the government has no tents for private uses.
As to the Board of Trade taking money from either the city or county for advertising purposes the suggestion is a mistake. The Board of Trade has not printed any advertisements for three years, the last booklets being printed at least that long ago and they are still using them when inquiries are made about Sanford. But the Board of Trade and the Herald cannot lay down on the job of boosting the city regardless of the dearth of houses and neither can the city of Sanford bar the doors of the newcomers regardless of whether they are buying homes and putting other people out.
The Board of Trade is trying to get people here right now who will build houses and hotels and apartment houses and these people certainly would not build houses in a dead town where there was no demand for them. The very fact that so many people are wanting literature about Sanford from the Board of Trade demonstrates more than any other one thing that this city is growing and is making people inquire about it. If it was dead and had plenty of vacant stores and houses as it had in the past it would be a dead town sure enough and if the people here would rather have it dead than alive and hustling then they can quit advertising and quit looking for new blood and new people and winter visitors and stop everything and make it a grave yard – only those days are past and we are not stopping advertising, nor barring the gates or doing any of the medieval stunts that were pulled off here years ago when it was the fashion to close the gates of the city against all new people and against all improvements.
Dead towns have plenty of empty houses.
Live and growing cities never have enough vacant houses to supply the demand.
Sanford is a live one and with the assistance of the new Chamber of Commerce will continue to be a live one and those who can only see it from one angle now will be the first ones to profit by the boosting of the city by the men who have always boosted it and having always boosted it they know more about the actual needs of the city than those who have not been active members and done their part in keeping the city moving.
And meantime there will be a way whereby more houses will be built to accommodate all the people before another season.

CHAIRMAN FOREST LAKE
The State Road Department under the leadership of Forest Lake, of Sanford, is doing things, and as a result it is receiving the compliments and respect of the people of the state. Even those who would rather the state road department would do things other than those it is doing are pleased to see the pep and spine that Mr. Lake has injected into the body which unquestionably is one of the most important departments of the entire state government, and should never be hampered in its work by efforts of the legislature to abolish it. – St. Augustine Record.
The above is a sample of the many nice things that are being said of Mr. Lake by the newspapers of the state. But we all have a right to expect much of the new chairman. Here in the fourth district he has made several unsuccessful campaigns for congress and made considerable impression upon the voters along that line. Now he will have an opportunity to demonstrate his business ability to the people of the entire state, and we believe he will make good. The legislature will never be permitted to abolish the road department so long as it is making good. – Melbourne Times

OUR PAINT SHOP
Is kept busy by knowing automobilists who send their cars to us to be repainted.

The reason for this is that all our work is custom work which means that only the best of materials are used by skilled workmen.

Cartoon for advertisement: Art of 2 ladies in dresses arguing. 1 has a baby carriage and the other holds a rag doll.
What Settled the Argument
“We have Bwussels carpet.”
“We have lace curtains.”
“We have Fwench mirrors.”
“We have Butter-Nut Bread every day!”
And that settled it, for of course there’s nothing better than
The New Butter-Nut Bread has all the quality of the old Butter-Nut; we could not improve that. But in addition we’ve perfected a new mixing process which enables us to turn out a lighter, daintier loaf than ever. Get a loaf today, for Butter-Nut is its own best advocate. At all good grocers. The genuine bears the Butter-Nut label.
