AMERICAN LEGION WILL DANCE AT COURT HOUSE
WILL BE COSTUME DANCE BUT NOT MASKED AFFAIR

Through the kindness of the County Commissioners, the American Legion will have the use of the Court House to hold its Armistice night costume ball. This affair promises to be the greatest event of this sort that the city has ever seen, and will be in keeping with the spirit of the day.
All arrangements are now complete for the festivities of the day.
Obtaining a floor suitable for the occasion, was the only uncertain part of the program and the Campbell-Lossing Post certainly feels indebted to the Honorable Board of Commissioners for their interest in our welfare.

R. patronesses to be the judges. Also, a prize of $10 will be offered to the couple putting on the best exhibition of dancing.

QUIET DAY IN SANFORD AND SEMINOLE COUNTY EVERYTHING DEMOCRATIC

Hand Was Elected Sheriff By Handsome Plurality
WAS LONG BALLOT
Ninth amendment was swamped under all over the county

The election passed off very quietly in Sanford and in every section of the county yesterday. The situation was handled perfectly by the election officers and the efficient force of deputies from the sheriff’s office and there could not have been a more orderly election. There were many to vote but they took turns and voted very rapidly and from the way the votes showed very intelligently especially the new voters. Mrs. Schelle Maines was said to be the first woman to cast her ballot yesterday in the city going down early with Judge Maines, who was one of the clerks in the No. 3 and voting at the early hour of eight o’clock.
An unofficial canvass of several precincts of the county showed that while the Republicans were very active and polled a large list of voters the general result was not changed much and Seminole county remains safely in the Democratic list even though many who voted in the primary as Democrats voted a national Republican ticket.
The entire vote cannot be given in this issue as the judges of the election are busy making their official canvass now but will be given in the daily tomorrow.
C. M. Hand, the Democratic nominee for sheriff, leads E. E. Brady in a ratio of five to one.
In the Altamonte precinct and the Longwood precinct where D. H. Hooker was the Democratic nominee for constable against Joe Saucer and C. M. Frayne was the regular nominee against A. R. Stiles, the regular Democratic nominees won out. Saucer and Stiles were not on the ticket but their names were written in. At Longwood, Hand won over Brady by 32. In Geneva, Hand received 85 and Brady 20. In Oviedo, Hand was two to one over Brady and James H. Lee defeated his opponent for constable by a large plurality.

BOARD OF GOVERNORS BOARD OF TRADE HELD MEETING ON MONDAY
Meeting to Devise Method For New Organization
TAKE LEGAL STEPS
TO COMPILE DATA AND GET READY FOR SEASON’S BUSINESS

A Joint meeting of the Board of Governors of the Sanford Board of Trade and the recently elected officers of the Sanford Chamber of Commerce was held in the Valdez Hotel Monday afternoon.
The purpose of the meeting was to devise some method whereby the new organization could proceed to function until all legal formalities had been complied with and the old Board of Trade dissolved.
Judge Householder, who is preparing the charter for the Sanford Chamber of Commerce, advised that it would be completed and recorded within the next thirty days.
At the meeting it was decided that the fiscal year for the new organization should begin May 1st, for the reason that the Governors elected at that time could formulate and perfect plans for the following winter seasons activities. The new officers elected at the recent meeting will hold office until May 1st, at which time Governors will be elected for one, two and three year terms. The Board of Governors will also elect their own President and first and second Vice presidents. Judge Householder was instructed to embody these provisions in the new charter.
A new finance committee consisting of R. C. Bower, John Meisch, and H.R. Stevens was appointed by President Miller.
The Secretary was instructed to proceed with whatever arrangements were necessary to perfect an efficient organization, and he has already stated that his initial move will be to have the Sanford Chamber of commerce become affiliated with the National Association of Commercial Secretaries, The U. S. Chamber of Commerce, The Florida State Commercial Secretaries Association, and the Southern Commercial Secretaries Association. This will give Sanford’s representative business organization prestige and publicity unobtainable elsewhere.
The practical results of the Sanford Chamber of Commerce, however, depend upon the continuation of that spirit of co-operation, so much in evidence during its organization. We feel confident that the new Board of Governors will continue the efforts of a few in making Sanford the prettiest town in the central part of Florida.

TROUBLE AT OCOEE
NEGRO WHO STARTED TROUBLE HUNG FROM TREE AND BODY RIDDLED WITH BULLETS
(By The Associated Press)

Orlando, Nov. 3 –
A negro named Perry, was hung from a tree and his body riddled with bullets after a night of rioting starting when the negro went to the polls armed with a shot gun because they refused to let him vote on account of his failure to pay poll taxes. Two white men are dead, and an unknown number of negroes were killed.
--
Particulars on the case gleaned over the phone gives the following about the rioting and killing:
The negro, July Carr, came to the polls at Ocoee yesterday to vote and not being on the list of registered voters was refused the ballot. He made his threats about what he was going to do and returned with a gun. He was disarmed and told to leave the polls and he left but returned with another gun and started shooting, and in the melee Leo Bogard and Elmer McDaniels, two white men, , were killed and the negro Carey, had an arm shot off.
Three other negroes were killed and two white men, Sam Saulsbury and John Turner, were wounded.

NEW BANK ORGANIZED IN BERLIN BY SYNDICATE

BERLIN, Nov. 3 –

A new bank capitalized at 11,000,000 marks has been organized here by a syndicate of German bankers and industrialists to foster trade relations between Germany and Russia. The new institution will cooperate with Petrograd and Moscow banks as well as with leading Russians industrialists.
It is proposed to include the Baltic and border states in the newly formed bank’s sphere of influence.
The VOSSISCHE’S financial editor says that the lively interest displayed by the United States and England in Russian trade relations should be an incentive for Germany to turn her trade eye to the East.
He declares that world conferences will discuss the European situation in vain so long as they continue to exclude Russia from their economic calculations.

TOURIST BUSINESS IRELAND RUINED
(By The Associated Press).
DUBLIN, Nov. 2 –

The tourist business in Ireland has been injuriously affected by the revolutionary disorders. Tourist agents and hotel keepers are in despair. North Wales and the Isle of Man have captured the visitors who used to come to Killarney and Glengariff. There has been a notable absence of the usual influx of Americans.
Dublin has suffered less proportionately than other places, but Dublin’s visitors did not take the risk of leaving it for the provinces. There was no danger to life or limb, but the dislocation of the railway service caused by the refusal of the railway men to carry soldiers, police or munitions made the train service so uncertain that nobody could count safely on reaching or returning from any given destination within the limits of a holiday.

Christmas Offerings To European Young

METHODIST BOARD OF SUNDAY SCHOOLS WOULD DEVOTE OFFERINGS TO STAVING ONES
(By The Associated Press)

CHICAGO, Nov. 2 –
The board of Sunday schools of the Methodist Episcopad church is sending out an appeal to its 4,500,000 Sunday school members to devote their Christmas offerings this year to sending food, clothing, medicine and other relief to the suffering children of Europe. Announcement is made from headquarters in Chicago.
Bishop John L. Nuelson, a member of the International Committee for the Relief of Children, who recently returned to this country from Zurich, Switzerland, says the outlook for the coming winter in the needier sections of Europe is dark.
“Those countries before the war could not support their own populations but were depending upon large imports of provisions,” he said. “South Russia, which supplied large sections of Europe with grain is not in a position to support its own populations. These countries have no gold to buy grain from Australia or America. They cannot manufacture goods for exort because they have not enough raw material or coal and they have no credit.
“If you draw a line north through the devastated are of Belgium and South through the entire continent and then travel east through Dalmatia, Albania, Montenegro, Slovakia, Macedonia, and Greece into Turkey, and then travel north through Serbia, Bulgaria, Czceho-Slovakia, Hungary, Austria, Rumania, South Germany, and on through North Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Letvia and Esthonia into Russia, through Russian to Siberia and South into Asia-Minor and Syria, Armenia and Mesopotamia, you will find in that vast territory hardly one child in a thousand which is not under normal either physically, mentally or morally.”
Bishop Nuelson added that thruout all the war-swept and famine-stricken sections of Europe the “teachers in the schools find that the children are so undernourished that it is a physical impossibility for many of them to concentrate their attention upon school work for even three hours a day.”

STEALING OLD COINS

LISBON, Nov. 1 –
Authorities of the National Library have been mystified by the theft of more than 100 gold coins of inestimable value from the famous numismatic collection at that institution. The fact that the keys of five doors were used and replaced and that all the most valuable coins were stolen, leads to the belief that the theft was committed by a member of the staff.
The thief carefully rearranged the remaining coins so that those taken would not be quickly missed.

AUSTRIAN DEFICIT 13 BILLION CROWNS
(By The Associated Press)

VIENNA, Nov. 3 –
A deficit government for the current year of 13,000,000,000 crowns is admitted by the Finance Department. Other estimates, however place it at a much larger figure, in view of the constant demands of state employees for increased wages and allowances which the government must concede.
Replying to a delegation of civil servants the government admitted that there were 60,000 more employees on the payroll at present than were covered in the estimates. Also it was confessed that it was next to impossible to reduce the list and throw these people into the ranks of the unemployed with the approach of winter.

AMENDMENT LOSES OUT OVER THE STATE

The state of Florida has turned down the amendment to vote twenty million dollars worth of bonds on the people for roads that would run anywhere and nowhere and that were not specified for any amounts and for any time, or place. From all reports over the state it seems that the large majority of the people turned down the amendment and turned it down so hard that it will not be thought of in the same breath for many years to come. People want good roads but they do not want them in the shape that the amendment would give them. Meantime if some one gets up an amendment in terms to suit the tax payers it might be possible to carry it. The amendment was defeated about five to one in almost every county in the state.

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 man 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 inducements.

PEOPLES BANK OF SANFORD. We want your business.

Well, it is all over.
--
And a good time to forget it.
--
And get down to real business again.
--
And by real business we mean building of those new hotels and golf inks.

And all the new houses and the boat basin and the yacht club and that White Way and a hundred other improvements.
--
We lose a lot of valuable time talking politics and yet its is no doubt for the good of the public and unless we take an active part in politics we will never elect good men to office. And we believe this will apply in greater measure to the women than to the men.
--
And now that it is all over we still believe that the Republican party means more wars and more battleships and greater armies in order that the big trusts and corporations and big business can sell their goods to the government at war prices. This has always been their game and there is no reason why they should change. Time will tell.

Armistice Day is the next big thing on the calendar and this will be next week November 11th. Let us help the Legion boys to make it one of the biggest days in the history of the city and to make it the biggest will take the united efforts of the boys and all of their friends. It should be the day in history for to our mind it is that and then some. When you think of what Armistice Day really meant to all us it begins to dawn on the mind that we cannot do too much that day to show our appreciation to the boys who sacrificed so much to “make the world safe for the Democrats.”

REPUBLICANS WIN

At the time it looks like a landslide for Harding for president and also the senate and house will be Republican. If the latter it is much better that Harding is elected than Cox for no man can do anything in the office of president when the house and senate are against him. We just had such a condition and with it four years of back-biting and handicapping of the president until it broke his health and his spirit. Now with the Republican president and the Republican senate and house and the “Round Robin” senators to back him up it will be most interesting to watch the progress of the “me too” president that the Republican houses have selected to pull their chestnuts out of the fire.
It will be more than interesting to see what Harding does with the League of Nations and it will be most interesting to see what he does with the Irish question that he has promised to settle without the League of Nations and for which he obtained the Irish vote. It will be most interesting to see what he does with Germany now that he has obtained all the German votes in America by such promises and it will also be most interesting to see how he appeases the American mothers who were wanting to see peace and yet who did not think enough of the League of Nations to vote for Democracy. We want to see how soon Mannikin Harding will start jumping on the bosses wire when they want to build up a bigger navy and army and spends millions for the same.
Yes, we are waiting to see many things that could not be forecast before the election and in this next four years it will be Republicanism with a big R and after it is all over they cannot lay anything to the Democratic party.
It will be their own particular funeral and the people will be the ones to suffer as usual. But here in the solid South we can stand the pressure all right and perhaps remain in the United States for another four years. After four years of this bunch in power it is dead certain to go Democratic in 1924.

THE WOMAN VOTE IS WITH US AT LAST

The present campaign has demonstrated one fact “beyond the shadow of a doubt,” as the spell binders say, and that is that the entrance of women into political life has been attended by none of the evils which were so freely predicted by the opponents of equal suffrage. Woman have not lowered, they have not “dragged their skirts in the slime of politics,” they are no worse for taking an intelligent interest in the government of the country in which they have always lived. When the summing up is made, there will stand to the credit of woman the example of intelligent, conscientious citizenship, which she has set for man.
Everywhere the women have formed clubs and classes to fit themselves for their new duties. They have studied the constitution of the nation, and the laws which govern citizenship; they have practiced voting in mock elections to familiarize themselves with the methods of voting; they have listened to addresses from competent instructors, and have attended political meetings of both parties to post themselves on the issues of the day. They have done all this and much more, without the sacrifice of a single womanly charm, without neglecting a single home duty. They have proved all the predictions of evil with the coming of equal suffrage, to have no other foundation than the ignorance and prejudge of the false prophets who put them out.
Where and when in all time have the male voters of the nation shown one-half the zeal and conscientious interest in voting that he women have shown in the brief time they have had to prepare themselves? A man goes to the polls in a careless, indifferent way, urged by the dictates of party, or the desire to help a friend to secure an office. It is a mere incident of the day with many. Some do not go at all, considering politics a dirty business, with which they have no concern. Not so with women. She considers it a solemn, conscientious duty which she owes to protect the nation which has always protected her home and the education of her children. She has endeavored to fit herself, as beat she might for the performance of this sacred duty, and she will cast her ballot in accordance with her convictions formed after a careful study of the issues of the campaign. She will not be influenced by party traditions, for she has no such traditions behind her. She will be an elevating and purifying influence in political life, which we sorely need at present. So we can say all hail to the women voters. – Tampa Times.

Farms in Florida
On October 16th the Associated Press reports carried the information that the number of farms in Florida, according to the last census were 6,808 less than in 1900 and 16,010 less than in 1910. Realizing there was some mistake, Secretary Holworthy laid the matter before the director of the census and has just received the following information;
The number of farms in Florida in 1900 was 40,814; in 1910, 50,016; in 1920, 54,006 making the increase of 30.5 per cent in the twenty year period. The increase in Polk county from 829 in 1900 to 1,365 in 1910 to 2,552 in 1920. These figures, of course, only included those farms which were enumerated because there is every reason to know that there are many farms not only in Polk county but in the state at large which the enumerators never saw. As a matter of fact the enumerator of farms for Polk county was in the office of the Chamber of Commerce three weeks ago (at which time the report was in type) asking for assistance in securing proper parties to get this particular information, therefore, so far as Polk county is concerned, the statistics can be but the result of a guess. – Lakeland Telegram.

10 - The Facts Of The Telephone Situation In Florida
By J. Epps brown, President.
SOUTHERN BELL TELEPHONE & TELEGRAPH CO.

Florida’s Telephone Service Needs

The Company has 660 unfiled applications for telephone service in the state of Florida today.
We cannot furnish this service because we do not have the facilities. During 1919 our forecast for 1920 warned us to expect and prepare for this demand. This we did.
During 1919 adequate facilities to meet the 1920 service demand were planned, the necessary money arranged for, their immediate construction authorized and orders for material and equipment placed with the manufacturers.
To complete this 1920 construction program for Florida, now under way, requires the expenditure of $400,000.00
The 5th and 6th advertisements of this series give the details of this construction program and the reasons why the material and equipment orders have not been filled.
Until these orders are filled, sufficient facilities to supply this service can not be provided.
The demand for service continues to grow.
Modern conditions and business have made telephone service a basic unit of commerce.
As the population and business of the country grow, the need for telephone service grows.
No one doubts that the population and business of Florida will continue to grow.
Our forecast for the next five years’ service requirements shows that, at the end of 1925, there will be a net gain of 9,300 telephones in this state.
These forecasts are based upon population, present and prospective, and an analysis of business conditions, present and prospective. The Company’s present plant in Florida was built upon such forecasts, and experience has proven their accuracy.
To meet the almost certain demand for telephone service in Florida during the next five years (in addition to the 1920 construction program now underway), plant must be installed and expenditures must be made as follows:

Five-Year Program Of Construction, State Of Florida.

Telephone Telephone Net Total no. construction
Installations Disconnection Gain Telephone Cost

In 1921 5,400 3,700 1,700 26,428 $ 359,156
In 1922 5,700 4,000 1,700 28,128 658,710
In 1923 6,400 4,500 1,900 30,028 1,164,510
In 1924 6,900 5,000 1,900 31,928 1,765,010
In 1925 7,700 5,600 2,100 34,028 1,040,510
Total 32,100 32,800 9,300 64,028 5,587,896

These amounts are subject to increase in the amount we fall short of completing the 1920 program.


In no other way can this service be furnished. The necessary facilities do not exist; they must be built.
They must be built in advance of their actual need; in no way can there be a “readiness to serve.”

To complete this five-year construction program requires:

Fundamental engineering so that these additions and extensions, when finished, can be co-ordinated with the present plant and the whole operated efficiently and economically. This the Company has done.
New buildings and additions to present buildings planned and working specifications prepared. This the Company has done.
Orders for the necessary telephone material and equipment must be placed with the manufacturers, and contracts for construction of the buildings made. This the Company will do as soon as the money needed to pay the costs of this construction.
The money needed to complete the 1920 construction has been secured.
The money needed for the 1921 and following years’ construction has not been secured. Twelve months’ time is required to construct the facilities needed to meet the known 1921 service demand; assuming that the necessary material and equipment are promptly delivered.
The present manufacturing and transportation conditions make it imperative for the orders for this material and equipment to be placed without delay. The service demand for 1921 can not possibly be met except by authorizing the 1921 construction program and placing orders for the necessary material and equipment at once. This the Company can not do now because it has no money available for this work.
These extensions and additions must be paid for out of the capital account of the Company; they are never paid for out of the earnings of the Company. If for no other reason, because the earnings of the Company are not sufficient.
The entire net earnings of the Company in Florida for the past four years are less by $517,288.00 than the cost of the additions and extensions needed in Florida for 1921 alone.
The money for new construction must come from the people who are willing to invest their money in this Company’s business; in no other way can it be had.
The figures given were prepared in the ordinary routine conduct of this Company’s business, and were taken from the records of the Company.
They give you a true picture of the telephone situation in Florida.
The situation is as much yours as it is the Company’s.
The responsibility is as much yours as it is the Company’s.
If you are to have adequate telephone service during 1921, and during the immediate subsequent years, you must act with the Company and act now.

The next advertisement will tell you why and what you can do to insure telephone service for the immediate future.

NOT GUILTY VERDICT IN CASE AGAINST A. C. L. BROUGHT BY W. B. TALLEY.

Lakeland friends of W. B. Talley, of Jacksonville, will be interested in the following from the Jacksonville Times-Union:
The case of W. B. Talley against The Director General of Railroads (Atlantic Coast Line railroad) growing out of the very distressing accident which occurred last year, on Sunday afternoon, in which an automobile collided with an engine in the Atlantic Coast Line at the railroad crossing on the old Orange Park road about three miles from the Southwest city limits, came to an end Friday afternoon after having been on trial in the circuit court before Judge D. A. Simmons for the last eight or nine days. This case has been exciting a great deal of interest on account of the fact that five children and one lady, the wife of W. B. Talley, were killed in this accident.
The whole community remembers the catastrophe and it was not surprising when public interest all over the city was aroused as to the outcome of the case. The testimony was closed Thursday night, and arguments of the attorneys for the plaintiff and defendant were made Friday, Judge Simmons charging the jury about 1 o’clock.
The jury was out about three-quarters of an hour and returned into court rendered a verdict of not guilty. This verdict exonerates from all blame the engineer and other members of the train crew for the unfortunate accident.
There are four or five other cases yet for trial growing out of the same accident, but as to whether they will be tried or not, since the verdict of not guilty in this case, is yet to be seen. The attorneys representing Mr. Talley were A. H. and Roswell King. The attorneys representing the defendant were J. L. Doggett, W. K. Jackson and J. L. Doggett, Jr. – Lakeland Telegram.

The Logical Treatment
“ENERGIZER” For Many Ills.
A prominent business man woke up last Monday with a real case of Sciatic Rheumatism. He was “Energized” twice on Thursday he was found “cleaning-house” at his store.
Ask him.
A younger well-known man came in Friday with an immovable still Neck – Neuritis, probably – and in 20 minutes he went out with his neck O. K., and feeling better ALL OVER.
BUT – why wait till it strikes you? Surely there is enough PROOF all around us that “a stitch in time” is much more intelligent than any other way.

WHO WAS IT?

Who was it that put on the first cut-price sale this season? Who was it that started the downward trend of prices in Sanford? And who is it that has their clothing marked at a figure right now to where there is no money in Clothing this fall?

IT’S THE STORE THAT IS DIFFERENT

And it is well for you to remember that you can still get clothes at all prices and it is difficult to understand just what is meant by lower prices. To realize the price situation you must use as a standard, clothes of known value. That’s Society Brand. We make it clear when we offer THESE clothes at THESE prices. And again you must remember –

We are offering Special Bargains on Special Suits but we have cut the Price on all our Clothing.

Perkins & Britt. “The Store That Is Different”
