To my friends supporters in the
State of Florida:
/ would like to thank, in person,
or by letter, each of those who
voted for and supported me in
my race in the recent primary
for the United States senatorship
but since that is impossible, !
must resort to thisgeneral meth
cd of expressing my thanks.
The friendship of those whose
personal friendship / have secur-
ed will always be close to me,
and the preference of those who
have voted for me because of
their belief that / would best rep
resent the State of Florida is,
and will always be, highly appre-
ciated. To all / can give assur-
ance that ! have not consciously,
throughout the whole campaign,
done any act unworthy of them
and their confidence. and / re-
Turn 20 them the standard which
they placed 10 my hands as-clean
as when II came to me.

A Great Mans Advice to Bows.

~ leader, William ]. Bryan, re
garded as a man, is rightly con-
sldered one of the finest charac-
te r. in theworld today, and there
will be no division of opinion on
the proposition that no one is bet

the right road to boys and xonna

asked for such advice, and in a
current issue of the Commoner
he replied as follows:
There is no NEW advice to
give to boys, and there are no
NEW boys to advise. The boy is
the same that he has been and he
is not likely to change much in
the years to come. His impuls-
es are the same that they were
centuries ago; the dangers that
confrontshim confronted his fa-
ther and his grandfather in their
boyhood days. If I were sug-
costing a warning to boys /
would not suggest a better one
than that embodied in the text,
The wages of sin is death. 4"
That is the law and it cannot be
repealed. The honest, truthful,
industrious boy will succeed in
proportion 10 his intelligence,
but no intelligence can make up
for lack of honesty, truthfulness
or industry especially is it i'm
possible to substitute anything
for honesty and truthfulness.
Laziness will limit ones accom-
plishments, whatever his other
good qualities may be. but he can
outgrow laziness, Just as he can
outgrow lack of education or in
telligenee, but it is much more
difficult to outgrow lack of homes
ty or lack of truthfulness. Pos
sibly ought to suggest that pa
tience is a virtue which should be
added TO the ones already mem
toned. Impatience has led many
young men to ruin; they have not
been willing to wait for a fortune
to come through legitimate accu-
mutation, and through their haste
70 get rich quick they have fallen
The boy should learn to labor
and to wait" Character is built
slowly, but it can be lost in a day
The farmer must wait from seed
time until the harvest, however
long il may seem, before he gath
ers his crop, and SO the boy must
be willing to plant ia the spring
time Of life for the harvest he will
gather when he Is grown"

BAD ADVERTISING.

Advertising in the proper places is
good. Advertising is 4 necessity oi
modern business life. But there Is nc
necessity for advertising lectures and
plays by sticking posters on The walks
before private residences in the resi-
dence section OF town.
1t is annoying to those who take
pride in the appearance of their prop
erty. 1t creates a feeling of resent
ment against those who defaced the
looks of the property. 1t is not good
business.
And surely there can be found bct-
ter places for the posters. There are
enough legitimate methods of adyeI
tising without promoters OF enter
prises being compelled to delacc the
residence part of Columbia.

PROFESSORS ARE HUMAN.

Professors are human after all
Those of us who didn't know it already
are now convinced that they are rot
mere thinking machines. The car
nival at the gymnasium Friday night
proved it.
In the two stunts the professors Ci
the University have >hOwn at the Ad
Club carnivals this year and last
they have beaten the students al their
own games. They unbent from their
lordly positions and showed the stu
dents a good time-all for the sake Of
the University.
Stunts such as that at the carnival
tend to create a greater sense of fcl-
lowship among students and faculty, a
sense of mutual assistance Offsettirg 9
the unwarranted feeling OF antago-
nism that too often exists between
pupil and teacher.

SWEEP THE STREETS.

"A leap in the dark NAV land You
in bed of roses or in a patch OF Ca
madam thistles,' says George Ade.
But" he continues, mo matter where
you bring up, you will get used TO it. ''
No matter what our course may
be. there always are cloudy day il.
any latitude. At these moments We
fain would jump our environment. One
of these is when We notice CoIun bia 5
streets.
Promising 10 clean the streets Of the
town was not a leap in the dark by
the City Council. For it does not
seem to have landed us anywhere.
Apparently we are exactly where We
were before the council promised to
operate a street-cleaner if the bust
ne.s men of the town would buy it.
While ;he dirty streets Of Columbia
are HoL patches OF thlStteS, and they
certainly are not beds of roses, the
people are getting used to them. In
fact, If a really clean stret were
discovered. the citizens would suffer a
severe attack OF heart failure.
Ii does not make much difference
who cleans the streets. What ia i'm
portant is that they be swept occa-
siOnally and that these occasions be
frequent There was enough money
in the treasury 10 warrant an increase
in the salaries of city officers. Ev
the same token. there ought TO be
enough TO sweep some OF the streets
properly.

The earth rotates on its axis once

we get back to our starting point with

not keep the sun over you on your
voyage, 1t is apparent that you will
reach your starting point with your
calculations one day out, unless you
have provided for this by striking out
an extra day on the calendar. II you
travel against the sun you will have
to add day to the calendar.
The convention that has been estab.
lished with regard to this matter Is to
consider the day as beginning at the
180th meridian, SO that the 181st
meridian is always day ahead of the
10th. AS the day begins first at tho
180th meridian, the New Year comes
first at that point, too, being there
twelve hours sooner than it comes at
