Telephone girls sell goods A small store in a small town can train one or two of its own girls (or men) to take telephone orders on advertised goods, as the big stores do. In one store with over 100 telephone operators, each takes telephone orders, acting as shop- pers for the telephone customer. In this store as many as 3,000 tele- phone orders will be re- ceived in one day. Some grocers use the same method. May we help you apply it to your Bvery Bell Telephone ts Long Distance Station RACE UTICA NEWS Mr. and Mrs. Jack Medd and family visited at the home of Mr. Thos. Lane recently.

Bell, who died on or about the twenty-eighth day of January _A.D. 1924, are required to send by post, prepaid, or deliver to Jno. W. Crozier, Solicitor for the Executors wll the said estate, on or before the 'nineteenth day of April A.D. 1924, id 1 This' Act "may be cited as The Horucultural Socities Act. , 6. (1) A society may be formed in any city, town, township, village or police village, 7 (a) A declarationghall be signed by the persons residents of the muni- cipality in which the society is organ- ized who desire to organize a society under this Act. In case of a village the number shall be at least 50, (d) Within one month after the money has been so paid the declara- uion with names and addresses of the signers of same, shall be transmitted to the Minister, who shall thereupon instruct the Superintendent to auth- orize a person to call the first meet-|- ing for the Organization of the So- ciety. - (e) The first meeting shall be held between the 8th and 14th days, in- clusive, ot April next ensuing, of which meeting at least two weeks public notice shall be given by adver- using in one or more newspapers published within the district. 8 Upon the receipt of such report the society so organized shall be per- mitted to participate in the legis- lative grant hereinafter provided, and to enjoy all the privileges granted by this Act. 9. The objects of the society shall be to encourage improvement in horticulture,~ (a) by holding meeting for dis- cussion and for hearing lectures, etc. (b) by holding exhibitions and awarding premiums for production of plants, flowers, fruits, trees and shrubs; (c) by the distribution of seeds, plants, bulbs, flowers, shrubs and trees in ways calculated to create an interest in horticulture; (d). by encouraging the circula- tion of horticultural periodicals; (e) by encouraging the improve- ment of home and public grounds, by the planting of trees, shrubs and flowers and by otherwise promoting outdoor art and public beauty; (g) by importing and otherwise procuring and distributing seeds, plants, shrubs and trees of new and valuable kinds. 19. Such amounts as may be voted by the Assembly shall be subject to division among all the Horticultural societies as follows; (a) One-third shall be subject to division among all the societies in proportion to the total number of members of each society in the pre- ceeding year; (b) two-thirds shall be subject to division among all the societies in proportion to the total amount ex- pended by each society during the previous year for horticultural pur- poses, in accordance with the pro- visions of section 9; (¢) A society in the first year of its existance shall receive a grant at the rate of one dollar for each paidup member on the first of January, but such grant shall not exceed $75.00. It is apparent from thé above ge- lections from Act that if Port Perry is to have a society this year we must have our list sent in this week so' that the Superintendent may be able to call the organization meet- ing between April 8th and the 14th, and have time to advertise it two weeks in advance. At the time of going to 0 press Mr, Hutcheson reports only about 45 names on the lists. Parties interest- ed in plants and flowers should se Mr. Hutcheson, Miss Grace Davis or Mr. Farmer, at once, and sigh up. While we can only get from $50, to $75. this year from the Government advantage of these being bought in larger quantities.
