Peach blossoms and arrangements of mixed spring flowers centered on the tables lent a festive air to the occasion. Speaking before 35 members and guests, Miss Douglas stressed the thought of how fortunate Americans are compared to the people of most foreign countries, including Bulgaria. The Bulgarian church and state were one, the first was shadowed by superstitions and the second, by a markedly low moral standard, she remarked. Missionaries took the initiative, declaring that religion should be coupled with an educational program. Accordingly, baby centers were established, hygiene lessons and instruction in child care given, and temperance talks presented in saloons. Desire by advanced thinkers and youth in Bulgaria, for education, became evident around 1936, when many young men sent to Vienna, for redimentary schooling, returned home to set up secret schools and passed on their learning, she continued. In her summary of Bulgarian history, Miss Douglas presented a brief description of its Slavic alphabet and phonetic language. In the short business meeting following it was announced that the class is now supporting ten Chinese orphans. Heading the luncheon committee was Mrs. C. M. Hollingshead, Mrs. O. H.

How to Sell a Car of Oranges OMAHA—Sitting here yesterday morning in the Sunkist sales office your reporter heard the office secretary talking on the phone. "That car of oranges—P.F.E 98765. It passed Laramie at 14 o'clock night before last. Don't you have another passing on it yet? ... North Platte at 12:30 this morning? ... Okay, that's fine." It occurred to your reporter that if he followed this car, P.F.E. 98765, right through to the purchaser, he might get a clearer idea of how an Exchange sales office operates—and so it proved. Your reporter strayed into the inner office, where Ralph Timmons, Exchange Sales Manager for the Omaha District, pointed to a small sheet of paper lying on his desk. "This is the car you're asking about," he said. He spread a dozen similar forms in front of him. "These are the cars now on their way here in response to our orders placed with the Central Sales Office in Los Angeles. They wire preliminary information on each car the day it is shipped. As soon as I know it's on its way, I can start planning how to fit it into my sales picture." Now this car you ask about—we knew that Jim would need a car about now, so we earmarked it for him. He's a jobber here." "How did you know he'd need it?" "We keep a complete record of each jobber's purchases. We watch how the fruit's moving, and can tell just about when he'll need more." Harold Morphew, Assistant Manager, hurried into the office, blowing on his hands. "Getting colder," he said. "Just checked Jim's stock, by the way—he's practically out." "You see—" Timmons smiled, "we check each jobber's stock every day. They often ask us if they need fruit." The secretary came in just then. "Here's the size list on that car." "Good! Now we're all set. After the preliminary information by wire, the sizes on the fruit follow by air mail." Ralph Timmons copied the sizes onto the small white sheet, "Now let's call on Jim," he said. At his warehouse in the Howard and 11th Street produce district, Jim eyed the small white paper with cold disapproval. "Too blasted many 288s," he said. "Look, Jim," said Timmons. "You know how the fruit's running this Accent Your Loveliness with the Same Magic Fragrance in Heaven-Sent Perfume . . . 7.50, 6.00, 3.50, purse size, 1.00 Heaven-Sent Eau de Toilette . . . 3.25, 1.75 1.00 Heaven-Sent Cologne Compact 1.50 Heaven-Sent Baby Powder . . . 1.25, .75 O. H. RENNER A. E. SCHUMACHER R Store "Here's the size list on that car." "Good! Now we're all set. After the preliminary information by wire, the sizes on the fruit follow by air mail." Ralph Timmons copied the sizes onto the small white sheet. "Now let's call on Jim," he said. At his warehouse in the Howard and 11th Street produce district, Jim eyed the small white paper with cold disapproval. "Too blasted many 288s," he said. "Look, Jim," said Timmons. "You know how the fruit's running this season. This size list is good, and you know it. And it's fine fruit." "How much off on the 288s?" Timmons looked him in the eye. "On that car—on all that Sunkist? Not a cent." Jim studied a minute. "Sunkist," he murmured, "—that's what my trade want all right... Okay, Ralph." He grinned. "Okay. When can I unload her?" "Tomorrow morning." This morning we drove out to "team-track Q12," and located P.F.E. 98765, a big yellow "reefer." Morphew "broke" the car, snapping the seal with his pocket hammer. We inspected the fruit—found it in top condition. And this afternoon the boxes rolled into Jim's warehouse. That's just one car out of more than a thousand that the Omaha Sunkist office sells each year. The same process goes on daily in 56 other Exchange sales offices throughout the U.S. and Canada. It's a big job to follow the markets on the ground day by day, taking full advantage of sales opportunities for your fruit. No other citrus marketing organization does a job like it. It's the one method that assures you that your fruit will be sold to the best advantage, both now and when competitive conditions return. Next report: two weeks from today.
