We squeeze out all the sun rich juice. Extraet all the zestful flavor of their peel. Capture all the healthful vitamins and mineral salts of the pulp.
Then, we add with expert care a taste of sugar. a dash of pure food color. a jot of citrus acid for tang. and sparkling water to make this cooling whole fruit beverage containing everything that makes oranges so delicious. Orange Crush is pure and wholesome as California sunshine; more tempting than the fruit itself.
Drink it always for cool lingering refreshment these thirsty days. Here howI am asking you to keep your eyes on this new column every week. It is going to be real spiey and entertaining. You re going to laugh your eyes to tears and your sides to pains, so keep watching the chaufeurs column.
This week am going to be serious though. want to hav a heart toheart talk with the men of my line.
JITNEY FARES have given the jitney business very seriou thought recently. am sure at present it can be worst.
is a fuet that at this time of the year business is generally dull, but can remember ever seeing it as poor as it is at present. We shoul!
pay a little more attention in Husiness like mamner, to the line from which we earn our livelihool.
Let me call your attention to one of the things that hampers our line of business. The Fares. The rates.
as we are all well aware, are laid out by the Governments. Why do we not enforce them? Why should people be made to pay the rates and others go for less? This should not be. This is really one of the reasons why we find it so hard present, because we are working and not being paid for our work. There en pal are exceptions every rule. Friends and regular customers can and should reputat be accommodated, but think the big majority are making the cut rate plan a habit. The cut rate also makes more nabi publie think that we are thieves. e. gentleman wants to use a car for a couple of hours. The first chauffeur wants 50 which is the government rating. The gentleman thinks 50 is too much; he tries the chauffeur, who will go for 00 which is not bad, right there he feels he can still go cheaper and, tries the third then off he 00 The and second chauffeurs are at least considered thieves No one is to be blamed but a chauffeur, yet if we would all work for the same rates (the government rating. the whole community would recognize standard rates, and the first chauffeur would get that job for the right price.
Some chauffeurs think they are getting away with a lot when they do the abovementioned, but such chauffeurs, or any one of them, only hamper their own trade or, line of business.
The people who want you to work on the cheap scale are the very ones who criticize you and think you are poor businessmen. Those same people have got to pay for other things and other service. Why not pay for the fitney service. fail to see how one can make good with his car under such conditions. am sure we can agree on this one point if no other. It would be for our own betterment, so, let us stick to the proper rating.
The organized bodies of the world are clamoring for better working conditions and better should we work for less? Better late than never, nevertheless. We should start right here and now to enforce the government rating. Remember in so doing we are not robbing anybody. We should at all times give body; mean good service. Polite service and be kind, being always willing to please those who come our way.
The Chauffeur job is no bed of roses and we should demand that which is ours Strick to the rates, beys, and conditions must turn for the better he goes first Letters to the Editor Correspondent Congratulates us on our Selection of an Associate Editor Orange Crush how.
