There is something radically wrong with the board
of education. The order forbidding inter-cty high
school football is unpopular 1t is stupid. The
school board, if it is not going to foster spirit of
clean, honest rivalry in athletics, is not entitled to
retain the management of the Stadium. Judging
from the attitude of the board of education the Sta
dunn is a sort of a sde-show to be hired at much
per day by anybody who breezes into town. To pro-
hibit inter-city football because of small riot among
street hoodlums two years ago is absurd. Shall our
high school athletics degenerate into kindergarten
songfests and tiddle-de-winks? 1t would

Intellectually the pope is described more
closely resembling Leo than Plus. Like Leo, he
from the nobility and is renowned for the pol
ish and subtlety of his mind His tastes though,
simple and his heart is kindly 1t is only his body

Report places him midway between Leo and Plus
in his relationship to modernism. He is expected to
stand no less firmly than his peasant predecessor
for church traditions and authority but to do with
greater tact.
Indeed, it likely that the keynote of his pom
tificate will be diplomacy. The heavy sears which

BETTER THAN TEN THOUSAND
BOOKLETS

The board of commissioners of Os-
ceola county, Florida, has subscribed
for 400 copies of each of the three pa
pers published in that county for a
period Of four months, and these pa
pers will be sent to people of other
sections who ask information about
Osceola county or it's towns and cit
les, and also to others who might
become interested in that section.
The action of the Osceola board in
this matter cannot be commended too
highly. Papers published in cities
and counties advertise their sections.
There may be occasions when the
advertising is not of beneficial char
acter, but with the great majority
of papers the advertising is helpful.
The news and local advertisements
carried in a paper reflect unmistaka-
bic the business and other conditions
of the community in which it is pub
lished. If the community is a live,
progressive and growing one, almost
invariably the newspaper is of the
same order. When a man wants spe-
cial and direct information concerning
a town or county, one of the first
things he does is to send for copy
of its newspaper.
The Osceola board has accomplish
ed two things: One is to arrange for
advertising the county in a beneficial
way, and the other is to make the
advertising mediums more worthy
and more helpful by patronizing
them.-Columbus (Ga.) Industrial
Index.

GREAT BRITAIN WILL TRY TO
CAPTURE WORLDS TRADE

New York, Sept. 26.-That the
United States will have to reckon
with England commercially is indicat-
ed in reports received here lately.
England herself is starting out to cap
ture the trade of the outside world by
big foreign trade crusade, and it is
hopeful of getting the trade which
Germany was forced to drop, not only
in Europe, Asia and Africa, but in
South America as we'll. The cam
paign has been planned by Great Brit
ain in a manner both deliberate and
systematic, and it is very likely the
men from the United States who plan
to descend upon South America will
find their British rival there. The
board of trade has issued white
Books" to every industry, telling
where Germany had trade, how she
got it and how she kept it, and are
sending agents out to those countries
whose trade they want. In addition
an entirely practical exhibition has
been arranged, showing not only the
kinds and quality of manufactures
each country desires, but just how
that country wants it's boxed and ship
ped.

CLOSED SEASON FOR FISH

The editor of the Palatka Times
Herald has prepared a general fish
law, which he will introduce in the
next legislature and endeavor to have
passed.
The following are the two impor-
tant sections:
Section l. From and after the
passage of this act, it shall be unlaw'
full for any person or persons, co-part-
nership, corporation or corporations
to catch, transport or be in possession
of any fresh water food fish, as here
in specified, between the following
months: Closed season for shad, from
April 1st to December LIST Of any
year; closed season for herring, from
April 1st to December 1st of any year;
closed season for mullet, from Novem
Der 1st to January 1st, or any year;
for all other food fish, from May 1st
to September LIST of any year.
Section 2. No person shall deliver
or receive for transportation any
package, box or other receptacle con
tanning food fish, unless it is labeled
on the address side in plain letters,
with the name and address OF the
owner or consignor and with the
kinds of fish which such package
box or receptacle contains, or falsely
label such package, box or receptacle
or deliver or receive for Transports
ton or to transport any food tsh
which may be caught or had in pos
session during the closed season, as
herein provided, in violation of the
law. Nor shall any person be in pos
session of any food fish, as herein
provided, during the closed season,
except as hereinafter provided.
The licenses are for seines and
nets.
No license is required for fishing
with rod and reel.

A NEGLECTED OPPORTUNITY

The Ocala Banner calls attention
to the fact that the Scuppernong
grape grows luxuriantly in Florida,
and could be made the source of much
profit. We have known this for years
and, in common with the Banner,
have wondered why comparatively no
attention is given to the cultivation
of the Scuppernong. Indeed, it re-
quires very little cultivation; it seems
to grow and bear fruit without any
attention being given it and it has
no disease.
The fruit, when permitted to be-
come thoroughly ripe. is as delicious
sany grape in the world. The
grapes themselves bring good prices
right here at home, never selling for
less than ten cents quart; and
the juice were extracted and properly
treated and bottled, it would find a
ready sale.
There is another thing that can be
done with the juice, which is not gen
orally known. Shipped in barrels to
those New York experts, it can be
made into the finest kind of German
and French wines. Almost any kind
of wine can be made from it, ad, some
years ago, there were New York peo-
pie who bought Scuppernong juice by
the barrel and converted it into Rhine
wines and French champagne, which
were duly labeled as foreign goods
and sold at high prices. OF course,
that fraud is perpetuated no more,
but the same wines may be made and
labeled truthfully according to the
pure food law.
Truth is, there is big money to be
made in growing Scuppernong
grapes.-Punta Gorda Herald.

that to keep Oklawaha avenue in re

the sum of two thousand dollars,

FLORIDA VEGETABLE MARKET
BUREAU SHOWS PROGRESS

Much progress is being made in the
work of the Florida Vegetable Market
ing Bureau and considerable interest
being displayed by the growers and
growers organizations throughout the
State. Secretary H. S. Kealhofer is
sending out a number of personal let
ters to prominent growers, and cir
cular letters have been prepared to

arouse an even greater enthusiasm
for this work.
These letters contain review of tae
entire movement from it's start with
the Marion County Board of Trade
and it's organizations here on Septem-
Der to the work being done at the
present time. A request is maderthat
if there is no organization in the COM
munity one be formed and members
appointed to represent it in the bu-
reau. Any assistance in this line pos
sible is offered by the bureau officials.
A copy of the organizations consti-
tuition is inclosed with each of these
letters, giving full details as to the
purpose of the organization.
The letter, which is signed by J.
D. Rooney, chairman; H. S. Kealhofe,
secretary, and DR.. R. T. Weaver,
chairman of the finance committee,
reads further as follows:
at will be of much interest to you
to know that we have already ar
ranged for one hundred trained sales
men under bond in the sections of
the country where your products are

in the field and will start to work as
quick as we can get our organization
