This Is the brief and simple nara
tive Of the evolution of Hawthorn. a
typical Florida country village 1t is
IN Aachua county, hundreds of miles
away from Pensacola and it has a..
told, perhaps not over 500 people. 1t
Is selected for the subject Of these
short and simple annals because for
the past few weeks it has been large
~ in the public eye and for the more
important reason that it really is a
typical Florida country town. So much
30 Is this true. that with a few slight
changes In names and dates its history
would pass as the chronicles of a
country town in Holmes or Walton,
Lake or Oseeola, Palm Beach or Pin
elias counties.
Years ago directly after the Indians
left and following closely in the ad-
vent Of the white man, the broad spot
IN the sandy trail, where the Seaboard
Air Line, was intersected by the old
Florida Southern railroad in its rugged.
rough. tortuous and serpentine course,
was called Waits Crossing. nl-natured
persons said 1t was so named because
when one waits at this crossing for
train he had long and weary waits
ahead of him. This. though, was un-
true, the spot was called after a pion-
eer family living in the community. AS
the years rolled by a store was built.
There may have been others, but there
certainly was one. A blacksmith shop
was added and then cotton gin. The
gin was and still is a big thing, for
the town Is in the center of a rich
Sea Island cotton section. After awhile
the broad spot in the road became a
near village and the name was chang
ed to Hawthorn. The reader will
kindly note the spelling of the name.
1t was so called after another pioneer
family. many defendants of which still
live in the community. The Haw-
thorn family spelled its name without
final se' from time immemorial. It isl
SO spelled by the postofiee department
and so spelled in the act of incorpora-
ton. However, there are certain throes
q new town must undergo and this one
decided to arbitrarily tack a final "e"I
on to its name. This is very much
like the fad in vogue a few years ago
when girls called themselves MAI
Mae" "Maymye," ''Maibelle'' and the
like. However, the fad will pass and
is passing and Hawthorn will be Haw-
thorn.
Prior to very few years ago, Haw-
thorn had only one street. All the
stumps had not been dug out of the
street and the village graveyard
and the village dead lie lazily sleep
ing by its side. The pioneers own
ed the land on both sides and they
made no bids for new business. Some

tutions of the state. They built an ice
and the demand was and still is great
er than the supply A board of trade
was organized and this body not only
talks about things but does things.
The women work. In fact in Haw-
These organized a village Improvement
association and as result civic pride
was aroused to such a pitch that the
paved streets and sidewalks. During
the past year one new church has been
built and the others were repaired. The
gradual School is flourishing like the
proverbial green bay tree. A swim
ming club was organized and a SPLEEN
did bath house erected on the shore of
one of the several beautiful lakes.
The two railroads, the Atlantic
Coast Line and the Seaboard cross
each other at right angles. These roads
are competitors and rivals. Each
maintained small wooden station in
two remote ends of the village. They
refused to exchange courtesies and
pass by" Last summer the board Of
commission and the roads have built a
handsome union passenger station.
Hawthorn is in the geographical
center of a district of which it is pro-
posed to form new county. The peo-
pie want the county and they will
probably get 1t.
In the vulgar parlance of the street,
the town has got lively wiggle on,
just like a Waterbury watch. Just a
day or SO ago, public auction lot
sale was held. Eighty lots were sold
readily and quickly at spanking good
prices. On the same day the crowd
found time to indulge in a fish fry and
held a rousing mass meeting in tho
interest of the proposed new county.
The entire population has caught the
infection. They walk about with a
iivelier tread than they did in the
balmy days of yore. When the band
plays ordinary march music, it uses
turkey trot time and some of the old
widowers are getting married after 81
courtship of only two weeks.
AS was said in the beginning, Haw-
thorn is only a typical Florida coun-
try town. It is very. very much like
many, many other Florida towns. 1t
will grow rapidly just as the others
will grow. 1t is in the midst of beau
tiful and wonderful country. The sur
rounding country is dotted with pic
tured lakes and crystal streams that
wind like silver ribbons through state
~ forests. 1t surely is a country CT
transcendant loneliness 1t lay in a
lethargy long time, but it walked UP.

Saloons Closed

1t seems that the order OF Judge
Neil that the saloons Of Nashville
be closed last Saturday night, was
carried out fairly well. He had
issued an edict that all saloons in
the city of Nashville must close
their places Of business and the
dispensers Of booze complied with
bis request so farl as the public
could see, but it is claimed that
many Of them got busy, doing an
illegal or bootlegging business.
It is believed that the Judge will
have the opportunity Of putting
many saloon men in Jail before bis
order is successfully carried out.
The Judge is pretty game and if
he holds out faithful he will make
the business unpleasant for those
who undertake to sell whiskey in
violation of law.

finished up. Another small gap
in the road between Elizabethton
and Bluff City. Of two miles,

road was all built within the past

the best in East Tennessee. Wash
