I Who’s Who In Your Jitney-Jungle I
Don W. Mounts, cashier of our San Benito
store is only nineteen years of age. He is a
native of Iowa and graduated from the Dvy
Moines High School in 1926.
His family, among others of that wonderful
state, was attracted to our “Garden of Golden
Grapefruit” in 1928 and located in Raymond*
ville where his mother now resides.
Soon after his arrival in the Valley he became
connected with our San Benito store as a stock
boy. He hat worked up to the position he now
holds, cashier of the store, with remarkable
rapidity.
Mounts is another Valley booster and is
proud of that fact. He expects to make this his
permanent home and to lend all his efforts to
the betterment of our Valley.
