superficial observer. With such Law
fish 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 eolors
and outlines OF the big picture.
Man did al 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 goo4 as to attract motorists
from all over the continent.
And as for the paYements, 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 a spare goo
Der there is a bunny ready to come
and accept your gift. He viii sit bolt
upright and knaw into the meat, |
casting furtiVe, saucy glances at you
meanwhile
Flowers. Usually fresh and bloom
ing the year round You are reminded
Of Goldsmith's couplet where ]
spring its earliest visit paid
And summers lingering blossoms
are delayed.
In one yard roses Of varigated hues
another household has
a penchant for the poincett9 , 49,. 49,. -
premises are afame; another is hid
den in a jungle of tall cane. Variety
is the spice Of life and here is where
you find it.
The birds fit in, and with their
Joyous notes help to give fullness
and symmetry to the picture
As for fruits, choice citrus fruits,
DaytOna yields the palm to none for
quality and quantity per acre. There
are scores Of citrus groves il, nrox- n
NIFTY 70 the o!tSs branches bending
to the earth with thetG burdens of
luscious golden globes, which for
beauty, proflIcacy and all desirable
qualities would truly astonish you.
The Fastest Autos and The Finest
Out.
The seventh world wonder, do you
ask? Come, whether from Missouri
2r from Maine, from Kalamazoo or .
Timbucktc, and you will be shown"
Here is where the wQrlas record for !
speed is broken witl every recurring 4
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. 1t is q con Il
tinuous show with constantly shift
ing scene. Il
Everything goes, from a 2-horse
power, up to a 200-horse power, and
all degrees Of speed from acanter to
a two-mile-a-minute clip. You will
probably catch the spirit, when you
do the roads and the beach are yours.
The Florida sunshine is free, the 4
balmy ocean breezes are free, the II
birds and squirrels and flowers are
free, the sparkling fountain water is /
free and you will have TO go down in Il
to your wallet only for coin for auto, Il
and bed and board.
This is no fanciful picture; it's all Il
here. 1t is drawing other thousands
and holding them enthralled, it viii u
charm and hold you Come and see.
