A Worthy Charity

Noting from the annual report
of the Children's Home Society OF
Florida, whose receiving home is
located in Jacksonville, that the
work the organization is attempt.
ing to do is of a wide scope, it
seems that it should receive a lib.
eral support.
Supt. Marcus C. Fagg says that
the society is desperately in need
of funds right now-that some
money must be raised at once or
the great work will cease.
1t is not thought that the peo-
pie of Florida will let this state
wide, undenominational charity go
down from a lack of support.
Those citizens of the state whose
means will permit, we are sure
will come to the aid of the organi
cation at this critical moment.
The object-to place every home
less child in Florida in q good
family home where it will be low
ed, educated and brought up to
useful citizenship; to see that every
needy child is provided for-should
commend itself to the charitable
and philanthropic people of Flori
da. The Children's Home Society
is supported entirely by voluntary
donationsand ptions, andany
who may desire to aid the work
may send their contributions to
A. V. Covington, treasurer, or
Marcus G. Fagg, superintendent,
jacksonville. The officers and
of the organization, who
are leading men in various parts
of the state, will appreciate any
aid in behalf Of the needy children
caring for which is one of the
greatest works on earth.

Influence and Example

Every community ought tn ex-
emplify the enterprise and energy
of its most progressive citizens.
The wide-awake citizen ought to
see the Importance of devoting a
share of his time to the public SER
vice in aid of his community.
Public spirit characterizes the
modern successful business man.
Realizing that he is indebted to
the community in which he has at
tanned his success, he takes an ac-
tive interest in community affairs,
which is the best way for him to
meet his obligation.
Activities of the disreputable
elements in any community are in
inverse proportion to the indiffer-
ence of the respectable citizens.
The effect of good example is
salutary in the community as
well as in the family.
Moreover, when the citizens of
wide infuence-the bankers and
merchants, doctors and lawyers,
etc. take active part in commun-
ity development those who are
less influential are easily induced
to do likewise, for they can be
made to see that their aid and in
fuence are important. Though
the sphere of influence of these lat
ter is less extensive, their voice
and example are potent, perhaps
more SO than their more prosper
Gus neighbors would be in the
same sphere.
No ones interests are too small
to warrant engaging in work for
the advancement and betterment

Tax Automobiles TO Help
Keep Up the Roads

The writer doesn't own an auto
mobile, but if he did, he would
say the same thing-namely,t that it
is perfectly plain that no other We
hicle tears up the surface of i'm
proved roads so badly or ruins
them so quickly. For this reason
there ought to be special tax on
automobiles, graduated in proper
ton to their value, this tax to be
used solely in the maintenance OF
roads. This is thing to which
our Legislatures everywhere ought
to give attention.
England levies special tax on
automobiles on the ground that
they are owned by the wealthy,
and therefore offer a means equal
ling the taxation of rich and poor;
for 1t Is we'll known that IN tarlH
taxes and certain other forms OF
taxation, the poor are much more
heavily burdened than the rich.
1t may or may not be wise to levy
a general tax on American auto
for the same reasons, but
certainly automobile owners them
selves ought to be willing to pay
a special rate for the up-keep of
the roads for two reasons.
Q) The pleasure of automobile
owning depends largely upon hav-
ing and keeping good roads, and
(2) automobiles, as we have point
ed out, are more destructive to
roads than any other class of We
hicles. Progressive Farmer.

state convention in Eagles hall
which closed yesterday afternoon,

The crisis came in the conven-

The Reds got wind of the fact
that the opposition was going to

start the fireworks he was
sQuelched.

used them in their own ranks.
The only lawyers they objected to
were those they could not control

brought the Reds out without
reservation and they demonstrate

had been claimed.
