Henry Granmore agreed
with her, sourly "Of course you
don't There never was woman who
knew what to do about a new Easter
hat-except to buy one"
He chuckled at his own sarcasm,
which is a way men have. Sarcasm
isn't worth cent to your genuinely

the iokesmiths since Samson, who
made the first riddle, and wakes sar-
castle as custom dictates.
IT don't see," Henry resumed, hav-
ing stated himself with chuckles over
his own sarcasm, why in the name of
time a woman thinks she has to have
a new hat for Easter"
why, every woman has one" his
wife argued, meekly.
That's the answer. Every woman
gets one because she thinks every
other woman will have one. And not
a COMPOUNDED one of the lot uses any
business Judgment in selecting or buy
ing her hat. The milliners know all
about women-they'r women them
selves. So they boost the prices up
at Easter time, and laugh in their
sleeves at their sisters who come trail
ing in and go trailing out with the
contraptions the milliners are pleased
to call bonnets. Bah. I'll bet no mil
liner will make her own hat. I'll bet
she has to go to some other milliner
just to have the feminine gratifca-
ton Of being stung. Humph! Have
you brought your hat homer"
why, no. l said 1 didn't know
what to do about one"
"Tou might have brought one home
and still have been in the dark"
Henry treated himself to few more
chuckles over this sarcastic remark
The way men carry on about Easter
hats, it serves them right to have to
pay big prices for them. Now, IL a

They fiddle around and cant decide.

Henry caught sight OF the price

out for his inspection. One after the
other he condemned. This one had
too wide a brim, that one was too

Henry chills of the heart.

Nearly 100 Industrial Workers of
the World. all of whom admitted that
they were anarchists, knelt on the
ground and kissed the folds of an Am
erican flag at early dawn Friday near
San Diego, Calf. The ceremony, most
unwilling1y performed, was witnessed
by forty-five deputy constables and a
large body Of armed citizens of San
Diego. The men who were thus fore
ed to show respect to the national
emblem composed a party that left
Santa Anna on a freight train the
night before and whose coming was
awaited by the deputies and armed
citizens who went out in automobiles
to meet them and drive them back.

OF THE
FLORIDA CITRUS EXCHANGE,

The Star has received the following
interesting and sensible letter from
Willis Il. Powell secretary of the
Tampa Board of Trade:
Editor Star: / don't like to faunt
Il told you So" but l quit my bulle-
tins to the state press in the interest
of the citrus industry because a large
per cent of the papers threw them into
the waste basket-the others. God
bless them, used more or less of the
citrus boom articles.
But what / saw coming is about
here. The Florida Citrus Exchange
has not had the proper support If it
had not been that Mr.. Temple reach
ed down into his private purse l doubt
if the exchange would have wiggled
through this year. The exchange full
filled its purpose-it raised the stand
ard of the Florida pack, it made the
Florida fruit standard, and it put the
price where it should be-and it caus-
ed greater acreage of citrus fruits,
caused big sales of orange properties
And if the exchange ceases to exist
it Will be the greatest calamity which
ever happened to Florida. The Punta
Gorda Herald tells the story in a few
words:
is fulfilled. the next orange crop will
be about six million boxes or more
and if the citrus exchange disbands, as
1T threatens to do, the crop will not
net the producer as much as twenty
five cents a box. Not only this. but
the value of orange groves and or
ange lands, will decline more than
fifty per cent. With oranges bringing
nothing, who would buy groves or
land?'
That's the truth, and only too true,
Il know for fact two instances where
wealthy investors refused TO buy
groves after they read the report that
the existence of the exchange was in
jeopardy. So gentlemen use every in
iuence of your paper TO have every
grower in your community be at Tam
pa April 18th and pledge their sup
port to the exchange.
If YOU have 100000 boxes of oranges
in your section it means much to you
whether they bring 50 a box or S200,-
600 or they do not bring enough TO
pay for the fertilizer. Think this over.
No foreign commission house Will ever
have the interests Of the state or your
community at heart like the exchange,
cooperative concern.
am sorry that much has had TO
be printed about the support. or lack
Of support of the exchange 1t has
already cost the state many new and
prosperous settlers believe Il has
stopped the investment OF million
dollars in orange properties already.

CHRIST THE LORD is RISEN TODAY
(By Maud B. Litt1e)


See the Easter sunlight stealing
Ger Judea's hills sublime:
Hear the Easter bells appealing
E,veryw here a joyous chime
Myriad birds in green retreat
Trill aloud a tuneful lay,
AS If the message to repeat:
Christ the Lord is risen today"
Flowers from tiny seed are swelling
Into fra grant beauty rife;
Lilies pure and white are telling
OF the resurrection life.
All in nature joins the chorus
AS her silent voices say:
God is love; his care is DER US;
Christ the Lord is risen today"
From yonder cross a glory bright
Shines athwart the empty tomb,
While angels from their heavenly
height
Chase away the deepening gloom.
Earth with heaven now rejoices,
Faith and hope triumphant say
With the host of grateful voices:
Christ the Lord is risen today"

A Good Rule.

The story is told Of a man who
had great difficulty in spelling words
with "ei'' and 'ie" in them. One day
a friend offered to give him an infalli-

he said, that in forIy-seven years has
never failed me-"
His friend expressed delight and
waited
The man resumed: "The rule is
simply this: Write your s. and e

A leading New York tailor. after
observing for five years those of his
customers who ride daily in automo-
biles, has come to the conclusion that
automobile riding developes the chest.
The chest measurement of the average
men. he declares, increases at the rate
Of an inch in two years after he be-
gins to ride in motor cars regularly.
The tailor thinks the increased de-
velopment Is due to deep inhaIations
while automobiling. We have noticed
that 1t makes any man chesty to own
an auto.

Former Governor Charles B Aycock,
Of North Carolina, dropped dead at the
Jefferson theater in Birmingham. Ala,
Friday night, while addressing the Al
ALBANIA Educational Association. Mr..
Aycock was speaking on Universal

his face and he was taken to the
wings of the theater, but expired at
once. Death was pronounced to be the
result of heart failure.
