Senator Stringer was only stringin'
us, anyway. But the idea is a grand
one, and in keeping with the title of
it's author; an idea that will set the
people to thinking and talking over

the times in Florida. Sometime,
when we have gotten through build
ing all sorts of roads out of all sorts
of material from Yalaha to Zypher-
allis, and Caloosahachee to Callahan

would stand the test of time and the

"Teach them, thy sons and thy sons

"Teach them, thy sons and thy sons
Sons.-Deut. 40.
"Not transferable" was the last
thing said last week touching the
primal parental duty of teaching our
children. mot transferable" You,
fellow parents, cannot shift your re-
sponsibility of personality instructing
your child. And yet thousands on
thousands of parents are lamentably
deficient here. And there's many
poor child that, like TopSy, was not
brought up, but 'jes' growed up"
A poor, pitiable fellow sitting under
the dangling rope that was soon 10
hang him, was asked if he had any
thing TO say. And this was the
heart-breakingly pililul thing that he
said "Mebbe I'd a know'd better if
somebody had teached me-" May
be a good many of those young men
that are crowding our penal institu-
tons TO Suifocation would have
known better if somebody had
taught them. But their parents, like
those of the poor southern noun
taineer boy, threw off the response
bilily of teaching their children the
things of God, and nobody else
caught it and discharged it. Parents
are doing this right along.
Here are some who let the state
do, as best it can, their duty. But
cannot teach the most vital things.
Some with a little more sensitive re-
gard to the higher educational val
ues, let the church take their place.
And the church has a most profound
responsibility of her own 10 the
rising generation. But even the
church cannot do your parental duty.
Nor is there any institution between
church and state that can. Society
is trying in many ways to make up
for lack of parental performance of
duty. Homes of the FriendleSs,"
"Children'S Protective Leagues,
Juvenile Courts" and the like are
doing great works. God bless them
in their work! But, parents, every
such agency is, in way, an arraign-
ment, a bitter, biting indictment of
the parenthood of our times. Where
weakness and want, impossible of
avoidance, are, there let mercy's
help be held 10 be without blame 10
parents. But it ought TO sting parent
hood into a passion of zeal so to
teach and train their own offspring
that the burden OF their backs should
not fall upon others in so many ways.
Prayer: Chou tender Parent of
us all, go TO every parent by Thy
Spirit who works, TO when and
where He will, and incite them to
bring up their children not only in
Shrewdness TO win, but in the nurture
and admonition of the Lord. For
Thy names sake. Amen. j. NJ. B.

Three hundred Florida veterans of
the Confederacy assembled on the
battlefield of Olustee last week and
had part in the dedication of mon
ument to the heroes who fell on that
fercely contested and bloody field.
1t was an inspiring sight off there in
the peaceful woods where no sound
save the whisperings of the wind thro
the pines and the chirping of the
birds awake memories of the booming
cannon and musketry of the past, to
see these boys who wore the gray in
that war of the COS meeting again
after fifty years of peace mad grasp
ing hands, many of them for the first
time in all the intervening years.
They were no longer boys except in
the spirit; the freshness and vigor
Of youth had given place to the fee
bleness of age in the body, but still
for the purposes of the occasion it
could be seen that grim visaged war
had smoothed their wrinkled fronts,
and now, instead of mounting barbed
steeds to fright the souls of feerful
adversaries, they capered nimbly"
and with pride of race with the noble
Daughters of the Confederacy who
have taken upon themselves the con-
tract of keeping alive the memory Of
their deeds and sacrifices. There will
be but few more such reunions, for
the "boys" are passing away rapidly.
They have fought the fight of their
lives and the problems for which they
fought have been settled; they are
passing away and will have no hand
in settling the problems which are
confronting the boys of today, except
as models of self-sacrifcing citizen
ship and men who could go calmly to
their death for a principle.

CONSTITUTIONAL
AMENDMENTS.

With the elimination (by decision
of the Supreme Court of the Consti-
tutional Amendment proposing the
substitution of the Initiative and Re-
ferendum for our present Represen-
tative form Of government in State
affairs, there will now be but two
amendments to the Constitution pre-
scented for the decision of voters at
the election next Tuesday
Both are important, though only
one has state wide significance. That
is the amendment which, if carried,
will permit special tax school districts
to submit to the freeholders of the
districts bonding propositions for To-
cal schools. The friends of education
in all parts of the state are urging
the Importance of this amendment.
Florida has been making rapid pro-
gress in the matter of education and
the state is spending large amoupt
Of money for schools, but it is impos-
sible from the available funds to meet
all the demands of a progressive ed
ucational system.
The law provides for the establish
ment of special tax school districts by
the Affirmative vote of the people di-
rectly concerned. These subj districts
are multiplying rapidly as the people
come to appreciate the advantages
they offer for improving local schools
But the system is inadequate in grow
ing communities to provide necessary
means for growth.
This amendment would permit the
people Of the special tax school dis
tricts to submit bonding proposition
to the freeholders with which to make
the improvements demanded.
PaIatka, only few years ago, tax
ing in its suburbs, voted itself into a
special tax district. By this system
more funds are available for our To-
cal work, but the amount is not suffi-
cient to meet the needs of our
school Palatka must soon have a
new high school building. There is
nothing so important. But under our
present system the new building is
practically impossible of realization.
Should the amendment carry the trus-
tees could submit bonding PROPOSE
ton to the freeholders of the district.
If approved this would provide the
means for the new building. The
amendment simply gives the school
trustees power to submit; the ques-
ton of bonding would still be with
the people who pay the bills.
What is true of Palatka is applica.
bic to other sub-school districts in
the country, and there are several of
them and a growing desire for more
The amendment should have the sup
port Of every friend of education in
the county and state.
The other proposed amendment
concerns only the counties of Duval,
Clay, Nassau and St. Johns, compris-
ing the Fourth Judicial Circuit of
Florida The litigation in this circuit
is beng handled by the same ma
chinery as 81 years ago, although the
population of the circuit has increas-
ed fourfold, The litigation in the
city of Jacksonville alone amounts to
more than that of the entire circuit

Resolution Adopted by tn,
County Board of Public
instruction.

Whereas, Under recent decisions o.
the State Supreme Court there is no pro
vision in the Constitution of Florida
whereby bonds may be issued or money
otherwise legally secured for erecting
or improving public school buildings by
the various County School Boards: and
Whereas, Every patron and friend oil
public education must see the need of a
change in the Constitution so as TO per
nit remedy for this deplorable condi
ton ofaffairS; and
Whereas, the last Legislature, reali,
zing the importance of this subject to
the educational interests of the com
monweath, passed the following:
A JOINT RESOLUTION Proposing an Amend
ment to Article II of the Constitution OF
the State of Florida, Relative to Educa-
ton, to be known as Section II of said Ar
ticle; Providing for the Issuance of Bonds
by Special Tax School Districts, for the
Exclusive Use of Public Free Schools
Within Such School District, and Authori
Zng the Levy of a Tax to Create a Sinking
Fund for the payment of the Interest ana
Redemption of Such Bonds.
Be II Resolved by the Legislature of the State
of Florida;
That the following amendment to Article T.
of the Constitution of the State of Florida. to
be known as Section II of said Article, be, and
the same is hereby agreed to, and shall be
submitted to the electors of the State at the
next general election of Representatives, to
be held in the year A. D. 1912, for ratification
or rejection.
SEC. II. The Legislature may provide for
Special Tax School Districts, to issue bonds
for the exclusive use of public free Schools
within any such Special Tax School District,
when ever majority of the qualified electors
thereof who are freeholders, shall vote in
favor Of the issuance of such bonds.
Whenever any such Special Tax School Dis
trict has voted in favor of the issuance of such
bonds, tax not to exceed five mills on the
dollar, In any one year, on the taxable proper
ty within the district voting for the issue Of
bonds shall be levied in accordance with law
providing FOR the levylng of taxes, to become
fund for the payment of the interest and re-
demption of such bonds.
Which proposed amendment is now
being published in the State papers, and
which will be voted on in the Novem-
Der election; Therefore, be it
Resolved, That we, the Board Of Pub
lie Instruction of Putnam County, re
specially call the attention of the voters
OF Putnam county 10 the importance OF
the proposed amendment and urge upon
them the necessity of aiding in every
way possible its passage. We trust that
ii will receive the active support and
enthusiastic endorsement of every
friend OF the great cause of public edu.
cation, and will be given a splendid ma.
jorlty in every county in the State.
Resolved, further, That we desire
these resolutions on this very important
amendment 10 be given all the publicity
possible, SO request that they be pub
lished in the county papers, and be also
spread upon the official minutes of this
Board.

From Forty-Five to Fifty Are Much Benefited
by
lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound

The "change of life :" is a most
critical period in a woman's ex-
istence, and the anxiety felt by
women as it draws near is not
without reason.
When her system is in a de-
ranged condition, she may be
predisposed to apoplexy, or con-
gestion of some organ. AT this
time, also, cancers and tumors
are more liable to form and begin
their destructive work.
Such warning symptoms as
sense of suffocation, hot flashes,
headaches, backaches, dread of
impending evil, timidity, sounds
in the ears, palpitation of the
heart, sparks before the eyes,
Irregularities, constipation, vari-
able appetite, weakness and
inquietude, and dizziness, are
promptly needed by intelligent
women who are approaching the
period in life when woman's
great change may be expected.
These symptoms are calls from
nature for help. The nerves are
crying out for assistance and the
cry should be needed in time.
Lydia E. Pinkhan's Vegetable
Compound is prepared to meet
the needs of women's system at
this trying period of her life. 1t
invigorates and strengthens the
female organism and builds up
the weakened nervous system.
