ccntagG of profit is more modest, and
very item of cost entering into the
transaction is lower here than in ad-
Joining larger cities.
Therefore why WILL people spend
their money away from home? They
gain nothing by it-an unprecedented
comparison of values will convince
almost anyone of this fact-and a
spirit of fair play should certainly
prompt the spending in Henderson
vile of money made in Henderson,
vile. There are already too many
leaks. Here is one easily stopped and
which must be stopped if the city is
to have still better shops han it now
boasts.
AS to the mail order house-one al
ways thinks i~nstfhctively of that Ed
NEVILLE farmer who bought a piece of
farming machinery from a Chicago
mail order factory. He used the ma
chine once. A part of it became
broken. He has been trying ever since
\ then to get a new part-so far I'M
successfully and that was over two
years ago. He sent his money with
his order. He paid the freight. He
used the machine ONCE!~
Suppose, now, he had gone to the
Farmers Hardware & Supply COM
| pany, to the Clarke Hardware COM
pany, for that piece of machinery?
But after all this spending your non
! ey at home" is really a matter of edu-
cation. Many people believe that be-
cause a newspaper which is alive 10
the best interests of it's home town
advocates it, there must be some mys-
soand straightway hike to the next
town or consults it's mail order catalog
for the purpose of spending money
made here. They say it's THEIR
money and they will spend it where
they please. This is certainly their
privilege but a list of such folks should
be compiled for future reference. Thea
when they ask for a contribution to a
church, or for a neighbor whose COW
has been killed by lightning, or foG
any other of the thousand and one
things subscription lists are, circulated
fer, they should respectfully be re-
ferred to the Chicago mail order house.
or to the merchant in some adjoining
city, for instance.
OF course they will receive it by re
turn mail!
For does not the Chicago mail order
factory pay taxes here? Also does il
not help in every forward movement
for the city and county-which invari
ably benefits every citizen. WheI
misfortune is treading on your heels

DAYTONA MAY HAVE A
BETTER LIGHTING SYSTEM
EXPERIMENTS WILL BE MADE
TO DETERMINE BEST METHOD
OF LIGHTING CITY STREETS
PUBLIC TO BE NOTIFIED.

A committee from the Daytona
board of trade composed of Messrs.
s. Fl. Cove, ROLAND Z. Stevens and
Col. G. NJ. Bingham, met with the
street committee of the city council,
H. e. Burdick, Lew Smith and E. j.
Mills, Thursday evening and dis
cussed with Supt. E. l.. Gum of
the Schantz Electric, Ice and Water
company. ways and means of improv-
ing the lighting of the city streets.
One of the changes advocated is
the use of several incandescent lights
in place of arc lights now in use
and Mr.. Gum proposes to make some
experiments along this line and also
in the different arrangement of the
arc lights at such time in the future
as he can get the time necessary to
prepare for them. The said expert
ments will be made on Ridgewood
avenue on the blocks between Pay
street and Live Oak avenue and the
public will be given due notice of
the time of the experiments in order
that people may Judge of the merit
of the different methods employed.

CONGRESS TO
GET NAVAL
BILL AGAIN
MAY NOT BE ADOPTED AS
PRESENTED BY DEPARTMENT
CONGRESS LIKELY TO VOTE
AGAINST THE PROVISION FOR
TWO MIDsHIPMEN FROM EACH
DISTRICT,

/ WASHINGTON, Jan. - The mil
1tary and naval affairs committee OF
the house and senate, respectively,
VIII present soon again to congress
the familiar legislative project known
as the naval personnel bill. Al
though the bill to be presented is a
revision of the old personnel bill,
1t viii incorporate new plans, such as
the authorization of two mfdshipmen
from each congressional district and
-four from each state. 1t will con-
tain a provision for the commission
ing of enlisted men of the marine
corps as officers, and the amalgama-
ton of the pay and construction corps
with the line. 1t also aims to provide
a regulated flow of promotion
This measure is presented to con
gress through the navy department
as a necessity for the welfare of the
service. It is doubtful. however, ac-
cording to navy officers as to wheth-
er or not congress will unanimously
adopt the personnel bill as recon-
mended by the navy department.
Congress, according to many, will
vote against the clause which per-
mits each senator and representative
to maintain two midshipmen at the
naval academy. Should this be the
case, department commanders say
the legislation will be calamityous.
1t will continue the old system at
the academy of numerical output
which has proven overwhelming.
Already the lieutenants of the ma
Wy are complaining of their arrested
promotion in the navy by reason of
it's Qyercrowded condition. They are
urging that the representation in
Annapolis be ''primed" so that when
man enters the service as a cadet,
he may have chance after 40 years
of duty to retire at some grade high
er than when he first took his COM
mission.
At present urder existing condi-
tions, the officer who graduates from
the naval academy during the next
four or five years will find his adj
vancement hopelessly retarded. He
or some of his associates would be
retired as ensigns were it not for the
fact that they are automatically pro-
NOTED out of the grade of ensign af-
ter three years of service.
Apparently the naval officers are
right about the personnel bill. 1t is
shown that there is a pressing need
of an extension to the system if
there is to. be a maintenance of eff
ficieney, a stimulation of endeayor,
the protection of contentment, and
the reward Of merit Without those
elements in the naval officers ca
reer the service is bound to suffer
deterioration of personnel for an
emergency.

ening for burial.

Little Nonsense

ParsOn Henderson, an evangelist
of color, was caught one bright
morning holding the hands of one
of the lambs Of his congregation,
who was a very popular young lady,
and it created quite stir among
the colored population. So the par
son was brought up for trial and
was questioned by the officers of the
church as to what he meant by his
action, and this is what he had to
say in answer to the question pro-
pounded to him:
My brudders. you have seen these
srcat pictures. suppose, SO you
know dat the great Shepherd am al
ways pictured with lamb of his
i'ork in his arms"
Yes. sab. parson. dat am So adj
mitted Deacon Jones.
Den Brudder Jones. what am
wrong in the shepherd Of dis flock
holding a lamb in his arms"
This was too much for Brudder
Jones, SO he proposed the officers Of
the church have a call meeting that
afternoon. After the point was dis
crssed fully the following resolution
vas adopted:

and dignity of the congregation dat

Governor Trammell makes out a
strong case and presents it with
force and clearness in behalf of his
recommendation for a law to pro-
vide for the guarantee of bank de-
pOsitS in this State The issue is a
very live" one and is a part of the
progressive legislation for which the
age is now ripe and which is not
to be lightly dismissed by timid con-
Servatism as mere modern fad.
There is no reason in the nature Of
things why people should not have
absolute security for the safekeep-
Ing Of the money they deposit in
bank. They are clearly entitled to
It; and the measure recommended BY
Governor Trammell. already in sue
ccssful operation In several States,
10 . practicable means to that end.
We believe that such legislation will
be universal within time not far
distant, and there is no reason why
Florida should timidly wait to make
herself the tail of the procession.
Governor Trammell's recommends
tion. published in yesterdays Tele-
gram, goes sufficiently into details
to show how the guarantee fund Is
to be raised without undue burden
upon the banks, and it makes good
reading for the citizen who wants to
know that his money In bank is al
ways safe, no matter what the
crisis.
