THE COMING
EAST FLORIDA FAIR.

1t is hoped that the farmers o:
this county will make special effort
to have something for display at the
coming East Florida Fair, for which
energetic men OF Putnam and St.
Johns counties are planning.
A fair is not town project, but
one for the farmer who shows his
products and learns what is being
done by his neighbors and citizens in
all the country round.
Unless the farmer takes an inter
est there can be no success in an agri-
cultural exhibit The lessons OF a
fair mean more to the farmer than to
the merchant. The fair should not
be considered town institution, but
a community school where all can
learn. Let everybody, farmer and
townsman consider it "our fair and
not the fair"

The Sin of Dancing

Miami Metropolis: Some years
ago an evangelist advertised a great
meeting in a Northern city with his
sermon theme: Forty Reasons Why
Dancing Is a SIM" The auditorium
where the meeting was held was pack
ed to the doors, and the following
Sunday every church in the city ham
| died the same subject,
Most of the churcnes merely chose
the theme, "The Sin of Dancing" and
discussed it with various degrees of
disapproval according to the creed of
the church, and what apparently is of
greater weight the church rules. "
But one preacher, classed as some
what wicked because of his liberal
views, announced in the papers that
he, too, would discourse on the theme,
1.-THE Sin of Dancing" and crowds
thronged to hear him.
The Sin of Dancing" he said "is
not to dance well-and to dance
we'll requires grace, decorum, honor
ed partners, clean air to breathe,
good music and a smooth floor free
from companions that you would not
like to see in your own homes"
And if you read his definition care
fully you will find that he has COW
cred the situation perfectly. If you
have seen any dancing in Miami you
will understand just how the line
lean be drawn labelling some things
as sin and others as innocent fun.
If girl for instance, will 60 to a
dancing party and dance with man
whom she knows is low in morals and
unclean in his ways of living, she
commits a sin. If a man attends 4
dancing party and permits nice girls
to dance with fellows who are unfit -.
them to associate with, this man Is
not only committing sin, but real
crime
But we are not intending to g.
Into the discussion today. Pleasure
must always be a matter Of individ-
ual taste-we have always felt great
deal of sympathy for the little girl
who pulled the cats tail and did otn-
err wicked things in order that she
might not have to go to heaven, and
with the angels sing"
When people feel in their hearts
that their pleasure is sinful, when the
dance. for instance, when they have
pledged themselves in a church al
filiation not to dance-then. say we,
the sinfulness of pleasure may be de-

1t is said that there is one talent
common to all humanity, and that Is
the one for doing something foolish
from time to time. This is what some OF
the signers to the Chautauqua agree,
ment in Palatka are thinking. Chau-
tauQua is said to an Indian word that
means "bag tied in the middle" The
situation here seems to give force to
that meaning. Or" Waldo is in
the middle to work both ends. Fifty
complaisant gentlemen at one end
guarantee the "talent"-the "up-lift'
artists-necessary to its success. A.
the other end is a management made
up of workers picked out of the afore-
said fifty who are to conduct local de-
tails in the matter of paying the cos
of getting a tent, providing seats,
peddling tickets and sundry other

Orlando Reporter-Star: Senator
Bryan didn't get the judgeship, and
all the scheming and dreaming in
dulged in by those who thought to
be his successor in the Senate are
suddenly set down at naught. The
ReporterSstar's sense of prediction Is
verified in the presidents failure to
appoint Senator Bryan. 1t may be
some time before even those near to
him learn that Woodrow Wilson is
not to be overwhelmed by political
influences brought to bear in such
cases. The presidents action has sus
tanned our appraisement of him. Il
would have been almost if not quite
without precedent if the president
had named to sit on the Circuit Court
of Appeals, next to the Supreme
Court of the United States, a man
without judicial training or even
without any extended practice in the
higher courts. Age and experience
do not account for everything but
they are valuable assets when one
goes cunning for place like our u,
