The Daytona daily news. [volume] (Daytona, Fla.) 1903-1926, 1910-03-07

superficial observer With such law
Iish wealth of natural beauty it be-
came an easy thing for the hand of
man to give the finishing touches
which have wrought out the colors
and outlines of the big picture.
Man did all this in the laying out
of the streets with their wide margins
| of parkage. The entire city becomes
great park, with driveways inter-
secting. miles upon miles of drive
ways so goou as to attract motorists
from all over the continent.
| And as for the pavements, pave
ments that look and act like granite,
where else between the eastern
and western seas are so many miles
in proportion to inhabitants? The
pavement question stands with the
street as one of the chief drawing
cards. Till some unheard Of
place reports more and better, Day
tona throws down the gauntlet to the
world
Squirrels, Flowers, Birds and Fruit
/ Whatever comes shortcomings and
however Indifferent or even callous
one may be to many things, the mere
mention of flowers. and Squirrels
birds and fruits will send a thrill
that is reflected in distended pupils
and pricked ears.
For every visitor with spare goo
Der there is bunny ready to come
and accept your gift. He will sit boil
upright and knaw into the meat
casting furtive. saucy chances at yo,
meanwhile.
/ Flowers. Usually fresh and bloom
ing the year round You are reminded
of Goldsmith's couplet where
Smiling spring its earliest visit pai6
And summers lingering blossom.
Il are delayed.
In one yard roses of varigated hues
predominant; another household hal
a penchant for the poincetta and tn,
premises are aflame; another is hid
den in jungle of tall cane. Variet,
is the spice of life and here is where
you find it.
The birds fit in, and with thei
joyous notes help to give fullnes.
J and symmetry TO the picture
AS for fruits, choice citrus fruits
Daytona yields the palm to none fo
quality and quantity per acre. Their,
are scores of citrus groves in prox
unity to the city, branches bendins
to the earth with their burdens o
luscious golden globes, which 70
beauty, proflicacy and all desirabl,
qualities would truly astonish you
The Fastest Autos and The Fines
: Out.
The seventh world wonder, do yol
J ask? Come, whether from Missouri
J or from Maine, from Kalamazoo OF
Timbuckto, and you will be shown
Here is where the world 5 record to-
| speed is broken with every recurring
season. Autos, the biggest, the fast
est, and the finest are on daily parad
and the big show is as free as the
pure artesian water from the thous
ands Of flowing wells. It is a con
tinuous show with constantly shift
| ing scene.
Everything goes, from a 2-horst
power, up to a 200-horse power, ant
all degrees of speed from acanter t.
J a two-mile-a-minute clip You vii
probably catch the spirit, when 20,
! do the roads and the beach are yours
The Florida sunshine is free, the
balmy ocean breezes are free, the
birds and squirrels and flowers are
free, the sparkling fountain water i:
free and you will have to go down in
to your wallet only for coin for auto
| and bed and board.

here. 1t is drawing other thousands
and holding them enthralled, it viii
charm and hold you. Come and see.
