Straight Ahead. Keep the past behind the curtain.
 Don't look back. Lifes best lessons are uncertain
 Much they lack. Time and place and fate were factors. Changed are scenes and changed are ac- tors.
 Don't look back. Keep the vision e'er before you.
 Don't look back. Trample down the thorns that score you.
 Hold the track. Straight ahead keep boldly moving, Courage. patience. honor proving.
 Don't look back.

BlOunt's Address

At 12 o'clock sharp Mir. Blount began the annual oration
 His topic was ably discussed for fully an hour by MT. Blount. He treated of the liability of an employer to third per sons for the negligence of the employe, and examined the grounds of that la- bility; he then dealt with the liability of the employer to the employe. and ex- amined the grounds of that liability: he reviewed the development by the courts and the legislatures, showing that rap idly the liability of the employer to the employe is becoming almost absolute.
 MT. Blount considered and discussed what are known as "workmens com pensation acts" which propose to com pensate the workman or his family in every case of injury or death to him. making the liability of the employer ab- solute without reference to the negligence of himself or of the injured employe. He examined the benefits of the proposed law and the relative justice to the employer and employe. showing it's desirability if data shall prove that 1t can be made applicable without large injury to the employer or destruction of his business. He discussed the advanced views as to the rights of the workngman and the humanity in the application of those views, wherever practicable.
 MT. Blount dwelt, however on the con stitutionality of a law which proposes to make a man responsible for damages when neither he nor his servants are neg ligent, and he cited an opinion of the court of appeals of New York. holding such law unconstitutional. He then stated the suggested ways of pbviating the re- suit of that holding, and expressed the belief that some time the remedy would be afforded to the workingman in way compatible with justice to the employer
 The address of MT. Blount was heard with intense interest. The most profound attention was given the Florida lawyer and at the close of his address he was warmly congratulated. MT. Blount is one of the most brilliant attorneys of the Peninsula state. Although he has been resident of Florida practically all his life, he was born in Clarke county, Ala bama, and moved to Florida when he was z years old. Later he came back to Clarke county. while yet boy, and spent a few years.
