mirer Of Secretary Of State Bryan

Stranger things have happened than
to find Editor Harris and ". j..

One Of the most notaplc and sig

Of Florida 10 scheduled for today up
in Baker county. where the first cat

be put in commission. They prom

marks the intelligent beginning OF
an effort to improve our breed OF
cattle and rapidly supplant the mis-
cradle little scrubs feeding on our
vast grazing areas with better, stock
worth much more to the cattle man
and that will add many millions to
the productive output Of Florida.
The cattle tick must first be- gotten
rid of before there can be any meas
urable improvement In the industry
and there is no way yet discovered
except by the dipping watts whose use
begins today in Baker county. 1t
means more cattle and better cat

Florida can and will be-
come one Of the great cattle raising

THE AWFUL GUN"

We take much pleasure IN trans
ferring to our columns the follow
ing under the above caption from
the Wauchula Advocate and we Wish
that every boy and the parents OF
every boy in Florida would read It..
The growing passion for guns and
listols among the youth OF the coun-
try is a sinister tendency and we
need only note the news columns OF
The papers and read the awful muir
der roll TO see what the result Is.
In the home of every man should

would be good if the women as we'll
AS the men of the household were
taught to use il. but it should be
kept right there for strictly defen-
s,,e purposes, and beyond very
moderate indulgence In hunting. We
should find no other use Tor hre
arms. Says the Advocate
THE deadly gun has been the
cause OF four deplorable accidents
children in this community
within the past six weeks First
was the awful killing of little Al
bert Silcox, then the little son OF
Mr.. VIM. Ault was shot through the
hand with a pistol and then came
the heart-rending news OF the death
OF little James Menefee, and his
little body had hardly been laid to
rest when the six-year-old son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. I. v. Moore il dan
gerously shot by the accidental dis
charge OF a shot gun. Probably
many have said II was the careless
ness OF the parents that these awful
accidents have happened. In a GER
tain sense il may have been. but
were these parents more careless
than the average parent? Would 1t
not be nearer the truth II We would
say that they were the victims OF a
national habit The gun has played
an important part in the making OF
this great country. II was use,! to
gain our freedom; il was used to
subdnc the Indians. and the pioneers
needed II to protect themselves from
the wild animals Of 4 new country.
|, is no wonder our fOrefathers loved
the gun; from this love grew the
custom OF toy pistols and guns for
the children, and the desire to shoot
and kill by little tots before they
don their first pair Of knee pants.
But We have passed the pOin,
where a gun IL a necessary adtunc,
