and it is expected that some promf-
nent horticulturists from Washington
will be present to deliver addresses.
As soon as the program committee
has arranged the details an advance
program will be published. 1t FREE
quently happens, however, that some
of the best things for the program
are not secured until the very last
moment.
,
but everybody has not seen it and
there will be splendid opportunity
for a good many members of the hot
ticultura1 society to see this Athens
of Florida and at the same time en-
joy the horticultural meeting. DeLand
is the seat of the John B. Stetson
university, which is one of the finest

the entertainment the members can
take in and interfere with the pro,
gram of the meeting.
Every orange grower and vegeta-
Bile raiser in Florida and those inter.
ested in the development of the state
should become member of the Flor
ida State Horticultural society. A
copy of its proceedings is worth many
times the annual dues of 81. The so
ciety has been in existence for a guar
ter of a century and now stands fore
most among the agricultural socie
ties of the world. It's reports are
sought from all quarters of the
globe, and are on file in many OF the
best libraries in the United States.
During the past year more applica
lions have been received for copies c
the report than the secretary wa
able to supply, which shows thu
growth and increased interest in TIL
society.

LETTERS FROM 1Hf PEOPLE

Editor Daily News:
The condition of the residence
streets and avenues in many places
in sDaytona suggest the need of a
curbing ordinance for protection of
parkage and in further identifying
our driveways.
The expense of such an improve
ment being merely nominal would in
jure no one financially. Let the
city engineer establish a uniform and
ample width for all of the 100 foot
avenues and the same for streets of
lesser width and have the ordinance
enacted promptly as possible.
Such improvement would be an in
centive for many property owners to
keep their parkages in order where
it is now driven over and otherwise
cut up and unsightly. Auditing prop
erty values would be considerably en-.
HANGED and now pretty avenues be-
come much more so.

Simplify the Problem Of Living.

tonishing as well as sad, how many
trivial affairs even the wisest man

how singular an affair he thinks he

When Baby Learns to Talk.

Some children are very late In talk
ing. particularly If they are not en-
couraged. They make signs or point
to the object of their desires, and find
it easier than learning to talk. This
is pure Incidence on their part and
incidentally on the part of the moth
err Adenoids are frequent cause OF
delayed talking. If a child does not
talk at two or two and a half years
of age, deafness or mental deficiency
should at least be considered as
possible cause of his backwardness.

opportunity for the people here to Sc
this marvellous and fascinating per-
Torrance, which is presented in a
comedy vein, and has a combination
of the subtle mysticism of the Orient
with the progress of the magical sci

Crude art has been reduced by
them to exact science, but there is
no effort to impress their audience
with heavy scientific teachings, but
rather to give them an evening of De
lightful surprises. The play abounds
with novel scenic and electrical eff
fects, pleasing specialties and bewil-
dering illusions all blended together
to give three hours Of merriment. 1t
