There will be more money spent for the necessities and luxuries of life but that money is going to be spent judiciously, and with people who make definite, specific re- quests for such business. Glittering gen- eralities are not going to count S0’'much. Broad statements, with permission for readers to find the merchandise—and dis- cover its price are not going to be as well! received as those “heart to heart” adver-: tisements that go right to the prospeetive i customer and, metaphorically taking him or her by the hand, leads them right to the | store where the merchandise may be found. | Daily newspapers, with their local tie- ups, and the opportunity to tell the current price, get as close to basic advertising as anything, and will doubtlessly be used ex- tensively by manufacturers and sales man- agers who are truly anxious to make sales. It might be mentioned, in passing, that much of the present administration’s suc- cess so far has been due to the fact that Mr. Roosévelt has “gone to the people.’ through J. P. Newell, secretary 10 Gov- ernor Dave Sholtz, ‘has prepared | the following statement in giving; a resume of the first year’s ad-| ministration of the chief executive of the state: Tallahassee, Florida; January 3, 1984. It is entirely fitting that on the! first anniversary of the inaugura-' tion of Governor Sholtz ther should be released a resume of! his administration. Even as close-| lly as I have been associated with the governor it is impossible for, me tt call to mind every accom- plishment of his administration, but I shall endeavor to coeenat the major achievements, without! any effort to list them in the or-j der of their importance. First, let it be borne in mind that Governor Sholtz assumed the; reigns of office at a time general conditions throughout the; state were unquestionably worse} than at any time subsequent to the Civil War. Shortly after his. inauguration every bank ‘in the; United States was closed. The, entire and complete breakdown of our public sehools was imminent. Hundreds of thousands of people! were threatened with actual star- vation. However, under these ad-| verse circumstances and conditions | svesesssons AcROSS * |. Commit thett : 3 K of the ibie 8.

Retailer tie-ups are ‘more’ and’ important in selling goods, , No.one trade- mark is strong enough to force customers to go hither and yon to find it when there are so many “just as good” kinds every- where. The big objection to this form of advertising seems to be that it involves more work—although no more expense. It is no lazy man’s way to advertise, but it is growing more and more apparent that it is the best way to get the customers acquaint- ed with the merchandise. _It is good com- mon sense. ? more | ELEVEN KINDS OF MONEY. When we are fortunate enough to get hold of some of Uncle Sam's coin-of, the realm we seldom scrutinize it\élosely, be- cause we know that for practical purposes one dollar is as good as another. In fact, the average citizen is probab- ly unaware that there are 11 distinct kinds of United States Money, butghch‘is the case. These include federal resery Rg Ss, na- tional bank notes, silver certificates, gold coin, United States notes, national bank notes, silver certificates, gold coin, United States notes, subsidiary silver, gold certi- fieates, federal reserve bank notes, minor coin, silver dollars and treasury notes. At present the total amount of United States money in circulation is approximate- ly $5,743,000,000 of which more than one- half is in federal reserve notes, Silver coins constitute a relatively, small portion of the money in circulation, but this will be considerably increased under the recent proclamation of President Roosevelt, which provides for the coinage of a limited ad- ditional amount. . yo. : “{4Phe administration's monetary poli- cies are attracting much attention just now \among'finaticial and economic experts. The layman knows little of what it‘ls all about, and inasmuch’as ‘the. expert# tire in thor- know much about it, either. ABOUT BOY BABIES Researchers and statisticians are dig- ging into everything imaginable nowadays, figuring out the possibilities of this and that. Dr. A. J. Lotka, a specialist in life insurance statistics, has been studying the prevalence of boy babies, and these are some of his conclusions: When a boy baby is born he has two chances out of three to grow up and be- come a father. He has even chances of administration ean be credited among other accomplishments with z= the following: 1.—Observance of and. com- | Pliance with the program of the democratic platform, both state and national; 2.—Perfect co-operation with President Roosevelt and the de- velopment of unprecedented cor- dial relations between the national and state administration; 8.—The maintenance of pleas- ant relations between the. state government and the people of the state; 4,—Establishment and main- tenance of co-operative relations between the state government an ‘the political party responsible for it; ‘ 5.—Loyalty to party and friends; z 6.—Refusal to harass the peo- ple by the levying of new and i | noxious taxes; 7.—A direct and businesslike! manner in which problems of state were approached and solved; NOTE: The foregoing achieve- ments were enumerated by Honor+ able J.
