FLORIDA

Florida. The land of summer cooi-
ness. where, midst the shade OF or
ange, and magnolia the mocking bird
never ceases his song; where, while
all other lands are languid and
marched with torrid heat, eternal
freshness reigns and languor is un-
known: where gently flowing streams
reflect the blue of heaven, and in the
clear ethereal arch above is seen
mundane beauty of the banks
where life is love and love more beau
teous than the hopes of youth before
reality has raised the veil ana
glimpsed the shadow of despair.
Where Ceres and Pomona reign SUI
preme through an autumnal cycle
that compasses the sun. Where man
has changed the native wilds to haDi-
tations blessed with all that lavish ma
ture can produce and filed them with
the fairest full fruitions of desire.
Where woman is purer than its linn
mid lakes, and fairer than the sum
mer moonbeams shed on orange bios

SAVE THE PARCEL POST

The Guide calls the attention of its
readers to communication printed
in this issue from Prof. w. A. Hem
ry:
1t took years of labor by earnest
men and a quarter of million farm

those who would destroy the parcel

STARTLING NEWS


The News Tribune startles us with
the news that there is a split in the
Wilson cabinet, Secretary Bryan and
Postmaster General Burleson being
at swords points over the parcel
post. Postmaster General Burleson
watns to expand the system. and Sec
retary Bryan is bitterly determined
to curb him in that effort to restrain
the greed of the express trust. The
morning paper prints the pictures of
both gentlemen to prove the tale.
Except that Secretary Bryan has
taken no part in the parcel post con-
troversy, except that if he did take
part he would be most emphatically
with the postmaster generals pro-
gram, except that the fight against
the parcel post extension is being
waged by senators, and that Secre-
tary Bryan is not a member OF the
senate, and except that it was Sen
ator Bryan Of Florida and not the
secretary of state who made the move
against parcel post extensions, the
story is pretty nearly correct, too

There is more Catarrh In this section of the
country than all other diseases put together, and
until the last few years was supposed to be
tncurable. For u great many years doctors
pronounced it local disease and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven Catarrh to be constitutional disease,
and therefore requires constitutional treatment.

FOWLER URGES
BANK CONTROL
OF CURRENCY
FAVORS The CANADIAN PLAN
In Argument Before House:
Committee

Washington, D. c., January "a
Former Senator Robert N. Fowler OF
New Jersey, outlined to the house cur
rency reform committee today his sug-
gestions for revision Of the monetary
system He proposed that all national
banks be authorized to do commercial.
savings and trust company business
and make note issues as Canadian
banks do; that all holding compan-
les" of banks be prohibited and that
all banks be compelled to carry the
same reserve sum, always in gold
All the banks shuold be under fed
eral control, he contends, as banking
was interstate business, and that clear
ing houses should be established at ALI
official centers to be resignated as:
Commercial zones under the man
agement of boards of control elected
by the banks against bankers council
to act as a court of appeals for each
zone, composed of business men ana
bankers, he also proposed. A deputy
United States comptroller would pre-
side over each board.
By having all banks in the United
States contribute from seven to ten
per cent of their deposits to central
reserve, Mr.. Fowler estimated a gold
reserve of upward of $1,250,O00 would
be created to be held in trust for all
commercial zones and it's distribution
in times of need would be controlled
Lv boards chosen from all the zones.
Such a plan, Mr. Fowler told the com
mittee, would enable such an organiza-
ton as he outlined to control the
movement of gold to and from the
United States and enforce a discount
rate for gold transmission.
It's chief results, he said, would be.
to make each bank independent; to
make each zone Independent of anoti-
er and completely decentralize air
bank credit in the United States.
