FLoRlDA'S GREAT NEED, A
SYSTEM OF GOOD ROADS.
Legislature Will be Asked for $780,
100000 in Bonds for That
Purpose.

Jacksonville.-A bill is to be intro.
: duced in the legislature of $50,OOO,-
: 600 of bonds for the construction of a
4 system of vitrifed brick roads.
The tentative plan calls for the con.
struction of number of trunk lines
over the main travelled routes. and
from each county seat a highway con-
Meeting with one of the trunks.
Florida's developed and potential
wealth amply warrants the prompt
construction of a comprehensive sys-
TEN of tirst-class highways, in add.
ton to those many good roads which
it already has. 1t is said that 100000
northemers are pouring into Florida
every year to make their homes, and
more are on the verge of going, for
the belief that the south, especially
this state, is a young mans country,
a country of opportunity, is abroad in
the land
The lure of its climate is strong.
The region still eXerts some of its an
cient fountainof-youth magnetism. |
The number of northerners who reg
ularly travel southwark to escape the |
rlgors of winter is steadily increas.
ing. Bringing as it does millions of
dollars to be spent and invested,
thousands of men with capital and
energy to create new wealth, this fine
prestige is of inestimable value to
Florida.
This condition alone should prompt
Florida to meet the requirements of
business within its limits by construct.
ing complete system of good roads.
There is, however, another consid.
Grafton which many not appeal as
strongly to the average elector in
Florida as it does to an observer in
New York state. That is the compe.
tltion of other southern states. With
the rise of the motor car and the in. I
crease in touring, good roads are be-
coming power which can be offset
by nothing but other good roads q
In a world of progress, Florida can y
not rest on what she has. California a
and Texas are hustling; near neigh. p
oors are waking up. b
If Florida is to preserve her pres. l
ige, her popularity, her business good o
VIII among northerners she must II
ieep pace with the requirements of p
he times and build roads so good and p
o numerous that they will give b
ew fame to the state, as well as meet
nd ordinary business requirement.
AS long as other states are awak. WI
ming and building, Florida need nev. lie
fear of OVERRIDING the work. The We
alton expects much from her. -
When it is said of Florida that ev
'y road is a good road, she will de-
7lop at a rate which will give verv
rye dividends on all that is invest

seen at the opera house and the oCca-
sion should serve 10 draw large au-
diences to witness this marvellous in
Yention.
The TREMENDOUS success of Edison's
kinetoFhone, or talking pictures, has
brought on the usual rush of so-called
talking pictures" Edison, however,
is the only man producing actual talk
ing piCtures--that IS, pictures and rec
ords which were made a the same
time under perfect synchronizins con-
ditions.
When an Edison talking picture is
made the actors rehearse and act until
talked. sung and acted before the
camera while the photograph, placed
above the camera. records every sound
that is made. Edison alone employs
this method of recording and therefore
has the only genuine talking pictures.
The wizard saw al a glance that the
greatest difficulty that the talking pic
lures would Offer was the invention of
a photograph that would be sensitive
enough to record every sound and
could still be placed ont of range of
the camera The wealth of data ac-
cumulated during the invention of the
monograph several years ago soon en-
bled him to solve the problem and
