NEW SMYRNA - sifusScd fifteen
miles soufh Of Dzytona and Is an
ids.i sp0t reached from Dzytona by
lard surfaee road winding thneueh
ons q the most picturesque parts OF
FLORIDA
With Its ancient ruins dating back
10 q time when the history of man
runneth not, interlaoed with wires of
the modern telegraph and telephone,
its miles Of shell streets as hard and
smooth as a floor and over-arched by
hoary forest giants that grew in state
" grandeur during the lapse of by
cone centuries, New Smyrna is traly
4 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 enterprisine. and all unite
in extending the welcome hand of
hospitality to STRANGERS. There are
Eve church edihces for white people
and an equal number for the colored
population; the town has an excellent
high school, a splendid public lib
rary, and up-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-
dztions to meet your requirements.
Adjoining New Smyrna is as fine a
section Of vegetable land as can be
found anywhere. This land has
been divided into small farms which
can be bought at reasonable pre-
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 scmber 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
marsin Of the forest, is this place Of
for the pious; this rem
dezvous for the picnicker. The ruins
are extensive, and while there is no
authsutic history Of their origin, il

and guarded by lofty pine trees is
Lake Helen, a winter resort of no
little importance. Camp Cassadaga,

ated near Lake Helen and at this
place several hundred people make
winter headquarters. A large lumber
mill and the largest brick plant in
the South are located at Lake Helen.

golden orange groves. The town is
supplied with water said to be the
Purest in the world, another attrac-
ton TO visitors. 1t is at Orange City
that passengers over the Florida East
Coast RY. transfer to carriages and

We are in receipt of an attractive
little booklet from the Pennsylvania
Railroad COMPANY on the opening of
the great Pennsy Station in New
York City. The operation of the
trains of great railroad system to
and from a central station in the
heart of the greatest city of the land
is revolution in transportation fa-
cilities. 1t substitutes an all-rail
standard railroad, and the most COM
plete terminal station in the world
for a less accommodating ferry SER
vice and river-bank terminals. The
booklet is intended to set out how
great an institution Il e station is,
what it means for the convenience
and comfort of the traveller and the
pictures are put in to certify to the
text. The station will be opened

Some opposition was raised in
New Castle County, especially by
the Middletown Transcript, over
Supt. A. R. Spaid joining with
Supt. ] E. Carroll in holding a joint
Teachers Institute at Dover The
Transcript pointed out that it is a
violation of the law but the Will
mington Sunday Star takes issue
with its contemporary by declaring
that the Transcript overlooks the
fact that at the last session of the
Legislature the section of the law to
which it refers vas amended by
striking out the words 'in his
county, thus leaving the superin-
tendent of any county free to hold
his institutes in any part of the
State. The amendment may be
found on page 160 Laws of Delaware
vol. XIV, part l. 1.-THE amendment"
says the Star, twas a wise one. The
financial support of these county in
stitutes is not sufficient to produce
the best results, if they are held
separately. But by a combination
of two or more of the institutes in
one meeting better service is pos
sible. The combination affords the
teachers of on9 county an opportuni-
ty of meeting the teaches of the
other counties, thus being of mutual
benefit in many ways. Furthermore,
Professor Spaid did not select the
place of meeting; it was unani-
mously decided by the New Castle
County Teachers Association to hold
the institute this year in Dover.
This action was taken at the last
meeting of the association. So it
would seem that Professor Spaid has
not only conformed to the law with
respect to this matter, but that he
was acting according to the express
desire of all the school teachers of
New Castle county who are most con-
eerned."

While the girls of Delaware may
feel that they are not given an equal
chance with the Delaware boys in
the matter of higher education, we
should nevertheless regret seeing a
co-educational institution made of
Delaware College. education
was tried once and was a failure and
while this does not mean it could
not be made a success, we are rather
disposed to favor separate colleges
than the proving of co-educational
course at Delaware College. The
latter is distinctly known and is gain
ing reputation as college for
young men. Why disturb it?

At LeavenMnrth wireless N

At Leavenworth a wireless mes
sage was caught giving information
as to the state of things in Mexico.
1t is supposed to be intelligence from
Washington, ent through the atmos-
phere to President Taft, sailing
through the Gulf of Mexico toward
Panama. Bet the miracle of it-that
is more interesting than all the
news. A man sitting at night in
his little Office out in Kansas listen
ing to what the Secretary of State
at Washinton is telling the President
on shipboard away out in the Gulf
of Mexico! The incident is easily
explainable on scientific grounds
but even then the wonder of it re-
mains. The explanation assumes
Sne existence of a substance which
cannot be proven. Thus science
postulates its achievements on the
rock of faith. Nobody is sure oi
the ether, whose undulations are
supposed to carry the message-what
it is or if there is anything at all.
It seems we will have to go bach
to the old philosophy which in order
to explain the communication be.

be reckoned with--the fellow who is for ever
looking for evil and for ever finding it; but
there are limits of modesty, within which we
must remain. The limit marks the point where
begins nudeness for the sake of nudeness and
not for arts sake. We can forgive much in
joke but we cannot forgive the same frank
ness for its own sake when the joke is omitted.
A moving picture man once said that when he
heard a course, brutal laugh in the audience he
at once detected something wrong, and elimin-
ated the portion laughed at, even though it had
passed his inspection at the morning rehearsal
Somebody had seen something vulgar in it.
The picture film manufacturers have learned
the lesson, we are attempting to inculcate, and
have cut out 'raw" incidents; because they
are catering to refined people
1t is a safe rule to go by, that an act which is
dependent on anything vulgar, profane or sug
gestive for its success, is inherently weak. The
guffaw" that responds to the word "damn" 1"
uttered by the low comedian is not tribute to
his art. 1t is the loud laugh that speaks the
vacant mind" to the vacuous drama. 1t is the
hollow echo of its own hollowness

PARIS WAS NEVER LIKE THIS.

When ever anything BIZARRE not entirely ar
tistic and Just bit risque appears we imme-
diately think of gay, wicked Paris; and yet
travellers return with reports that Paris is not
the sink hole of inquity it is cracked up to be;
and socoogists declare the French are the
most frugal and thrifty people on earth today.
But even Paris of the imagination could not
compare with New York and Chicago on New
Years eve, if we are to believe the reports OF
their own newspapers. What really happened
on Broadway and State street may have been
merely gay and festive, but the newspaper ac-
counts produce feeling of appalling disgust.
For instance, we are told that girls were jostled
in the throngs, estimated to number close to a
half million people, by boys reeling drunk and
it was no uncommon sight for pretty maiden
TO be suddenly seized in strong embrace and
soundly kissed a dozen times by a strange man,
whose spirits were enlvened by cocktails and
absinthe frappes. Young women, gorgeousy
-gowned and full of champagne, tickled strange
men with their feather busters and called them
Sweetheart" just for the novelty of it. These
were not all deGizens of the red light though,
no doubt, they were there associating on a so
cial plane of inebriety with those who met their
first indulgence that night How crassly crude
and barbarous we are, when freed from the
self-imposed shackles of social order, appears
on night of revelry like that. Police regula-
tions were violated, as well as social decorum.
We are not yeteready for the molds to be re
moved, DIR. Eliot.

STATE PRESS.
The Real Fight Begins.

The real fight that will eliminate in Ken
lucky in November 1911, begins with the reas-
sembling of the Legislature at Frankfort. The
interest has shifted from struggle between
Republicans and Democrats to Il conflict be
tween contending Democratic factions. The
Republicans are largely in the position of spec
tators being hopeessly outnumbered and so
compelled to sit tight and watch their oppor-
tunity.
The legislature organizes with the Whallen
faction in the ascendancy. All the plans for
the session have been formulated in Louisville
at the Buckingham theater The great Com
monwealth of Kentucky seems to be in the hu-
initiating position of having to submit all pro
posed legislation to the proprietor of burle-
que house before it can receive any assurance
of getting what it wants.
Do we ask a new school board charter for
Louisville! We must see Whallen. Do we
want the franchise extended to women in school
matters We must secure Col Johns consent.
Do we want amendments to the tax lawsl We
must go into conference in the green room on
jefferson street. Do we want good roads legis-
Iation! The boss will probably be found in
the wine shop adjoining the Buck.
1t is difficult TO accept this situation with
any degree Of complaceney. For the sake of
progress we must make the best of it, but we
cannot help praying, "More power for Beck
ham in his effort to weaken the Whallen grip"
OF course, it is true that Beckham in his day
was as selfish and dangerous a boss as any that
ever ruled state; but immediate hope for the
people lies in a rivalry of BOSSES If these two
aspirants to leadership i'm the Democratic party
and dominance in Kentucky can be pitted
against eac hother there is some chance for the
people to get back their power during the
quarrel-Louisville Herald.
