Florida has got along for the eighty
seven years since she became a part
of the United States without one
thing which we suppose every we'll
regulated state should have. She has
never had a state floweri We don't
know exactly what state flower is
useful for, but Judge it has some
use. We are glad TO know that Ger
tain patriotic F1oridians have put on
foot movement for the adoption of
a state flower-but, we don't know
exactly why we are glad. Perhaps it's
because. while they are hunting up a
state flower for the Land CT Flowers,
they are not in any mischief. Tie
flower proposed is the "Alamanda, y
which. translated, is "Allah's Man
date" flower that is said to grow in
no other state. But it cannot be an
American flower, else where did 1t

we recognize the religion Of Islam in

Hon. Daniel A. Simmons, a former

yate secretary to Florida's governor
suggests that the Office of pardon at
torney be created. This suggestion
of Mr.. SiIhmons's seems to be meeting
with the approval and commentator
of the press throughout the state,
and we think it is step in the rigbl
direction. The state needs a good
live, energetic attorney to make a spe-

fore the pardoning board, and to rep
resent the state in every case. AS II

During the first nine rounds the honors
were fairly even, Matty trying to land on
the Kids face, while the latter devoted
most of his attention to Baldwin's body.
Once Goodman hit low, but the blow
caused no damage. In the tenth round
Goodman began to show the effects OF the
pace he had set and Baldwin landed moro
frequently. this round being somewhat II
favor Of the Charlestown lad.
In the eleventh round Baldwin had all
the best of It, Once he got Goodman up
against the ropes and fairly dazed him with

day afternoon in New York. The customary
first week in June date was taken for the
yearly championship, which wsl start on
June and iun three days. The place was
left in the hands of the executive COM
mittee, which seems likely TO name Engle-
wood.
After discussion It was voted not to
change the condition Of the contest nor to
reduce the dues, although the handicap list
is no longer published. The annual reports
showed that two more clubs were included
in the membership than last wear and that
the treasury total had been increased $1S7
Leighton CallSins was reelected president
and he will reappoint most of the old
executive committee. including j. Whitney
Baker, secretary and treasurer. The place
of the championship will probably be de-
cidcd within week. as 1t is necessary to
have the bigger events Of the season
scheduled early.
