RidgewOod avenue is upon the crest
of a broad ridge, straight as the crow
flies and the wide spreading branches
of the heavy-trunked live oaks ex-
tend their giant arms across the mag
nificent vista, forming an arch, and
from these extended arms great fes-
toons Of Spanish moss sway as the
trade winds from the trOpic seas
fan them Looking straight ahead
down this white shell street one has
the impression Of a fairy path with
elfish draperies, but as you move
along and cast an eye first to the
right and then to the left you see dis
tinguished cottage homes in the most
delightful settings.
See the glistening leaf Of the grand
magnolia which nature has vanished
as no artists brush ever could; and
the cabbage palms with their burdens
OF snowy fruit and swaying palms;
See the lovely holly with its exquis-
tie berry; see the climbing vines
run riot in the trees; see the cryp-
togamons forms which gain a foot
hold on the great oaks and stately
palms, and surely you Will join in
the chorus and say that this is a
world wonder for beauty

One Of Daytona's browning gIo-
ries is her Incompatible beach. No
one who ever set foot upon its
smooth, packed sands; no one who
ever pedaled a bicycle over it's ex-
panse; no one who ever drove a
prancing pair Of horses and listen
ed to the popping of their steel shoes
upon its asphaltum-like face; no one
who ever steered a high-power au-
tomobile down the broad stretch of
wave-washed and surf-packed sand
but realized that it is a worId-beat-
er, worId-wonder Go stand upon
this wide speedway and see the hap
py souls fit by in joyous mood, and
answer whether this is not one Of
the seven modern wonders.
The Placid, PeIIucid Halifax River.
Where think you is water with more
picturesque surroundings? Nearly a
mile wide. fringed with tropical vege-
tatiOn. artistic cottages with roOmy
verandas looking out upon her bosom,
gamey food fishes in countless num-
bers h,,ckoning, as il were, to those
with rod and reel; her bosom fleck-
ed with duck and coot and snowy
winged sea birds, which sit about as
if for the sport OF bobbing upon the
waves; watch that lubberIy old
white headed pelican pouch a fat
mullet, and that fish hawk struggling
upward with his laundering load he
snatched from the water.
See the beautiful iauhches, spick
and span, their hampers and lockers
bullying with refreshments both solid
and liquid ready for a cruise upon tn
beautiful surface. Take out your fiel
glass and sweep the river from
Ormondg bride to Ponce Park
light house, then say whether the
Halifax isn't a thing of beauty and
a joy forever, and one Of the modern
wonders.

subject more thought than perhaps

.cerely that the Mutual Benefit does
more for it's policy holders than any

contracts, splendid returns and in ey-
cry particular That the history Of its
growth represents the highest and
best among strong, reliable financial
institutions is unQuestioned by those
who know.
l have nothing but praise to offer
and wish every applicant for life in.
