Camp Time Nears For Girl Scouts California sunshine sparkling on mountain lakes; the tangy scent of wood smoke from camp fires; the crunch of pine needles underfoot—all this comes to mind as summer vacation approaches and Anaheim Girl Scouts look forward to varied camp programs as do scouts throughout the country. Camp Le Roy is open to all intermediate and senior Gir Scouts and to Brownies who will be intermediate scouts in the fall. A convenience for those who stay home, is the day camp, Camp Flicker in Irvine park, which will be attended by many Brownie and intermediate scouts.

What do you do to make an ordinary market into a big one? You can get a pretty clear insight into this by studying the way the Exchange has built up its lemon business here in Atlanta. The methods used here are, generally speaking, the same that are successfully employed by Sunkist sales offices everywhere. The results seem a little more startling than in some places, because the Atlanta lemon business has been developed by the Exchange practically from scratch. When the Sunkist sales office was established here in 1921, lemon sales for the whole Atlanta District were less than 100 cars a year. Today they've been built up to more than 1200 cars a year. Credit for carrying out this job goes chiefly to J. W. Litton, Sunkist District Manager here from 1921 to 1945. Though Litton has moved to the management at Memphis, your reporter has had a good chance, the last couple of days, to learn about his work from his successor, T. A. Thomas, who is ably carrying on where he left off. First thing Litton did was to carry out the basic Exchange policy of gaining the confidence of the jobbers through a long-range program of sales service, and fair dealing. You can't do that in a hurry. Produce jobbing is a rough-and-tumble competitive business. Jobbers are cagey people! But if they find, through long day-to-day experience, that you're being square with them, they become very loyal. Litton learned the jobbers' preferences, and tried to get each one the lemons he liked best. Like other Exchange managers, he invented each jobber's stock every day. Before the boxes in any jobber's warehouse dwindled too low, he'd have another car on track ready for him. He never lost sales by letting a jobber forget lemons and run out of them. Well, the usual thing happened—the jobbers found the Exchange did as good a job for them as they could do for themselves. After a while if you asked an Atlanta jobber who his lemon buyer was, he'd say—"Lemon buyer? Jack Litton's my lemon buyer." Opening May, June 21 me in and Look Around! FOR THE INFANT AND CHILD UP TO 14 BETTY ROSE SHOP At Center Street, Anaheim each jobber's stock every day. Before the boxes in any jobber's warehouse dwindled too low, he'd have another car on track ready for him. He never lost sales by letting a jobber forget lemons and run out of them. Well, the usual thing happened—the jobbers found the Exchange did as good a job for them as they could do for themselves. After a while if you asked an Atlanta jobber who his lemon buyer was, he'd say—"Lemon buyer? Jack Litton's my lemon buyer." Next objective was to build up outside points into carlot markets. Through encouragement of outside jobbers—keeping lemons before their minds—getting them to stop up their orders—the Atlanta sales staff increased the carlot markets in the district eventually to 44. At the same time, dealer service men worked the territory, and year by year succeeded in changing the habits of retailers. Today, dealers in this territory price lemons by the dozen, even in winter. In summer they sell 'em by the bag full. They've learned to advertise them—not only for cold lemonade, but for colds, food uses, and laxative—and so get the most benefit from Sunkist national advertising. Lemons now sell well here the year round—in keeping with the Exchange policy of making lemon sales as independent of weather as possible, maintaining maximum volume at all seasons. This report has to do only with lemons, and only with one district. But the same kind of thorough, intensive market cultivation is carried on for all varieties—and in all 57 Exchange districts. It's a primary reason for the tremendous growth of citrus sales through the years—and for the greater return which Exchange fruit normally commands. Next report in this paper one week from today.
