New Contests
For
The AyiatorS

IT is the bold aviators who are now
crowding everybody else out of
the limelight, n after another
accomplishing daring feats in the
air that only a short time ago were be-
lieved to be impossible. Crossing the
English channel in a biplane is becom-
ing rather a common occurrence, flying
from Manchester to London a mere
matter Of getting a good start. and as
for a flight from Albany to New York,
an American has made that journey
faster than an express train could
cover the distance.
The year 1909 saw a great advance
in the perfection Of the flying machine,
but already in 1910 the most astonish-
ing progress has been made. In fact,
one does not have to look very far into

pose a complete papermaking plant

PROGRESSIVE NEW SMYRNA
NEW SM'fRNA IS situated fifteen

miles south of Daytona and is an
ideal spot reached from Daytona by
a hard surface road winding through
one OF the most picturesque parts of
Florida.
With its ancient ruins dating back
to a time when the history of man
runneth not interlaced with wires of
the modern telegraph and telephone,
its miles OF shell streets as hard and
smooth as floor and over-arched by
hoary forest giants that grew in state
ly grandeur during the lapse of by
gone centuries, New Smyrna is truly
a place of romance and rest.
All nature here is very inviting to
the tourist and pleasure-seeker. Here
too is to be found the best fishing and /
hunting in the State of Florida.
The people are thrifty, the bust
ness men enterprising and all unite
in extending the welcome hand of
hospitality to strangers. There are
Ave church edihces for white people
and an equal number for the colored
population; the town has an excellent
high school, splendid public lib
rary, and rp-to-date business houses.
There are any number of pretty
homes for the permanent population
| which numbers close to 1000, and
some very fine winter residences.
There are good hotels and boarding
houses where you can find accomo-
dations to meet your requirements.
Adjoining New Smyrna is as fine
section of vegetable land as can be
found anywhere. This land has
been divided into small farms which
can be bought at reasonable prices
Some of the finest celery grown in
the State is raised on this land. All
other vegetables grow in abundance
and here, too, is the home of the fam
Gus Indian River oranges.
New Smyrna has no bonded in
debtedness and the tax levy is low.
A point that no tourist should fail
to visit is the ruins of the Old Span
ish Mission which stand somber and
alone about one and a quarter miles
southwest of New Smyrna. A good
road leads to the place and the trip
can be easily made by an automobile.
Silent, in the great pine fats by the
margin OF the forest, is this place OF
pilgrimage for the pious; this rem
devious Tor the picnicker. The ruins
are extensive, and while there is nc
authentic history of their origin, il
is presumed that the Mission was
built by the Franciscans in the day:
when the once powerful Kingdom O
Spain first planted its flag upon wha
is now American soil. It was bull
of coquina, the roof being of ths
same material, cut into thin slab:
and covered with cement plaster
Extensive gardens surrounded it
which were enclosed by a stone
wall, portions of which still remain
Visitors usually come in partie
