L. G.. BRADLEY

Evinston, Sept. 4.-This commu-
nifty was saddened yesterday by the
sudden and unexpected death of one
of it's oldest and best citizens, Mr.. T.
G. Bradley, who passed away at the
home of his brother-in-law, Mr.. F. B.
Hester.
Mr.. Bradley was a carpenter and
was engaged at work on a cottage
for o. D. Huff, mile north of Evin-
ston, on August Is, when he fell
from the roof and sustained serious
injuries, ahving several ribs broken,
besides internal injuries that caused
his death.
Had Mr.. Bradley lived one week
longer he would have been sixty-five
years old, having been born in
Charleston, S. c., Sept. 10, 1S48.
The greater part of his life was
spent at Covington and Calhoun, Ga,
moving to Evinston in January, 1909.

widow, his son, J. H. Bradley, and

THE REAL FLORIDA

Editor Howard of the Orlando
Citizen is exactly right when he
says: The railroad tourist never
sees the sure enough Florida. He
takes the train at jacksonville and
railroads it forty miles an hour thru
the pine barrens, skirts the saw grass
lakes or river, dashes in on the
wrong side of the towns, makes a
pop call here and returns home and
gives a moving picture description
good or bad, as it happens to strike
him. But the real Florida he has
actually passed by and knows moth
ing about, because the real beauty
spots, the finest properties, the best
orange groves and natures own rare
scenes are not along the beaten high
way, but nestle away in hooks and
crannies, oftimes hidden from pub
lie view and must be searched out. -

Chamber of Commerce announcing
that a proposition to join the South

! ter a conference with Mr.. Clay Stan
ford, president of the Chamber of

matter of the annual meeting which
lis due to be held in Ocala in October,
next, it was decided that we should
submit to each of the subscribing
members of the State Chamber of
Commerce, the idea of its being alb
sorbed into the Southern Settlement
and Development -Flori-
Ida Department. The plans of this
organization, for the settlement and
development of the southern states,
are the most complete, comprehen-
Isive and business like which have
lever been evolved for the purpose.
The Florida department was organ
lied at a meeting held in Gainesville
a few weeks ago, and one of the COM
mittees Of the department is to be
known as the Commercial Commit
tee, which is to be composed of the
presidents and the secretaries of the
ing in view the securing, through the
organization, new settlers and new
industries The president and the
secretary are convinced that it will
be the best plan for the State Cham

instructions of the president, l am
Isending you this letter to secure

The following cities commercial
bodies joined the State Chamber of

Ireply. kindly say whether you think
the State Chamber of Commerce
should continue its organization and
hold its annual meeting in October,
in Ocala, or become absorbed into
the Florida Department. of the
Southern Settlement and Develop
ment Organization.
