By SCOTT MARTELL Islander staff writer — For Mary and Jim Herman, a series of shops This week, May 18-24, has been designated as Small Business Week by President Ronald Reagan. The week has considerable significance here on our in Periwinkle Place signals their business success Islands, where small businesses are the backbone of local business life. T" For Southwest Florida the most recent statistics show 99.9 percent of all businesses have less than 500 employees; 96 percent have less than 50 employees; 79 percent have less than 10. In Lee County a surge in growth of small' businesses has occured. The number of small businesses has gone up 23 percent, and 97 percent of these business have less than 50 employees. And they have an estimated annual payroll of $867 million. Here on the Islands, The Sanibel-Captiva Chamber of Commerce has enjoyed steady growth over the past 20 years and now has more than 500 members. As lour contribution to the celebration of Small Business Week, we are continuing a series of profiles of successful Island business people. This week, meet Mary and Jim Herman.
For Jim and Mary Herman, it wasn't long before they took "one step up"— and then another, and even another. The Hermans bought an existing business, Lads and Lassies, in Periwinkle Place in 1981. After doubling their business and dramatically increasing the inventory, they decided to open a new store. One Step Up, just above Lads and Lassies, opened in 1983.

For Sale at the NATIVE PLANT NURSERY TROLLEY SCHEDULE SLASH PINE Finns elliotti Engelm One of the most important pines of 1 he southeastern United States for commercial purposes is the slash pine. The common • name is derived from the turpentine face or "slash" cut in the bark to collect its resinous sap. This sap is used primarily for the distillation of products known a* naval stores. Native to the coastal wet flatwoods, slash pine is commonly found in association with the saw palmetto in vast expanses of forest. 472-6374 It is an important natural component of the landscape. The trunk of the tree grows straight and tall to as high as 100 feet. It is crowned with numerous small branches forming a round- topped head.
