STATE OR COUNTY PARKS

Women of the Florida Federation
Of Woman's Clubs are responsible for
the beginning of the Royal Palms,
which is going to he one of the
beauty spots of America. This sug-
gests the idea that some arrange
ment might be made to have a sys-
TEN OF state parks.
In the Everglades the state has
thousands of acres of valuable land
that will be sold in the next few
years, and If very small part of
the proceeds of this land were used
to purchase, for example, say
thousand acres of land in each coun-
ty of the state it would be splen-
did investment.
1t might be best to buy the land
and deed it to the various counties
for park purposes, for in this man
ner the county people would feel an
interest in their park and would
seek to make it more attractive than
any other in Florida.
Nearly every county in Florida
now holds a fair at some time dur
ing the year and aart of thes parks
might be utilized Tor fair grounds.
! If this were done it would be useful
as well as attractive to citizens and
visitors.
Florida is developing so rapidly
that unless a project of this char
acter is begun within the near flu
ture it will be practically impossi-
BILE to get tract OF lana Of a thous-
and acres in each county at anac-
cessable point
BY having big park in the many
counties of Florida. where the
natural growth of trees and flowers
and animal life could be preserved,
this state would become more and
more attractive as the years go by
instead of developing into land of
industry with the natural beauty of
Florida destroyed
The State of Florida could buy
Thousand acres of land in each
county without making the. burden
upon the taxpayers a heavy one. for
it could be bought with the pro-
ceeds from the sale OF Everglades
lands and such a park system would
be worth millions of dollars as an
advertisement in the years to come.
The News congratulates the wom-
en- OF the club bodies Of Florida for
maxim" the Royal Palm Park posi-
sible 1t was splendid idea, but II
should only be the beginning Of a
great system Of state or county
parks.

THE AUTOMOBILE THAT -.
HITS AND RUNS AWAY

The speeding automobile that
smashes something and skips before
its number is discovered. Is common.
The chances for a successful escape
are fairly good. In mascot accident
people are often too confused to look
at or remember numbers correctly.
The danger from reckless automo-,
bile driving increases, and many ex-
listing provisions Of law have become
out of date. Probably the number
plates for cars should be made larger
so as TO be read more easily. In some
States the idea of separating the first
two numerals by dash from those
following is tried and seems to make
number read more easily.
The idea should be drilled into the
publi' mind, particularly into all who
use motor cars, that quick reading
of the number of an offending ma
chine is the one protection and
means OF redress. The machine that
smashes into your unoffending car
may come from thousand miles dis
tant. The chances are hundred to
one that it Is stranger whom you
never saw. The car number Is the

string slip out Of your fingers.

One of the Century'ss j. -.
Greatest Achievements

A century ago many of the most
prominent men Of the nation indulg-
ed immediately in the use of the
cup. and made no concealment of 1t.
Well filled decanters decorated the
sideboard Of nearly every home, and
the social glass was the prevailing
custom in nearly all ranks of So
ciety.
1T as not only SO in this country,
but il was the custom in nearly all
countries.
1t was believed that the use Of IL
quors aided digestion, impaired
strength to the system. enriched the
blood. gave color to the cheeks and
promoted longevity.
Its use was recommended by ply
sicia.ls and the pulpit was rarely
outspoken against the custom.
But the reverse of this is now the
story in our own as we'll as in other
lands.
The decanters have disappeared
from the sideboards and the social
glass is now nowhere the clstom in
very few if any of the ranks of So
ciety.
In no other field of effect has any
achievement of the century been
greater.
i Many hopefully believe that II the
movement continues, as it now seems
possible, prohibition in the traffic of
intoxicating liquors is certain of
final adoption, not only by this ma
ton, but all nations. and that this
triumph will be reached before the
next fifty years.
As great as that achievement will
be regarded, it Is no greater achieve
ment than the sentiment that has
been created within the past fifty
years that will. make such triumph
possible.
This sentiment has been brought
about because the accumulated ex-
periences of men and women estab-
lish the fact that prohibition is best
Individually and collectively-for
every community; that people are
better off and far happier when not
indu ging in alvoholic beverages of
any kind; that when the working
nan does not spend his money for
drink his family is better housed
his wife and childreh go better dress
ed and are better in every way; that

Here is one of the latest developments
of the semi-circular skirt. 1t is made
with a pointed yoke that is becoming,
and has an inverted piait at each side
seam which increases the width and the
flare. The model is good one for the
coat suit, for the gown, and for the odd
skirt, and will be found desirable for
linen, cotton poplin and the like, as well
as for the wool and silk fabrics: it is alto
gether. exceedingly useful one, avail
able in many ways and so simple
that it can be made easily and quickly.
The lower edge of the yoke is Tapped over
the upper edge of the skirt and then
stitched into place, and the closing is
made at the left seam. The finish can be
made either at the high or at the natural
waist line.
For the medium size will be needed
4$4 yds. of material 27 in. wide, az yds.
80, 24 yds. a., and 25s yds. 81; width
of skirt at lower edge is = yds. and 80 in.

Suicide the Worst Folly Man
Can Commit
By Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Copyright, 1915, Star Company
IL you are discouraged and blue and
life looks hard and the future hope
less to-day, do not grow cowardly and
think of self-deStruction as the door
of escape.
You did not make yourself. You
cannot unmake yourself.
BY no process of reasoning can you
explain this wonderful marvel of the
life principle within you. Science has
found all the ingredients which COM
pose an egg chemically, and an egg
which resembles the hens product can
be manufactured.
But it will not produce life. A GER
tain low order of fish life has been
produced in the chemical laboratory.
But the germs spawned by the fish
had first to be employed.
Nothing can produce life but that
unnamable, mysterious Power back of
the universe. Created beings carry on
the life principle through succeeding
generations and centuries, but its pro-
duction and creation remain Gods sec
ret. He who imagines he can destroy
that principle is as great a fool as he
who says he can explain it. And he is
criminal besides.
Death Only Shifts Scene of Actions to
Another Form and Plane
All that death does is to shift the
scene of action to another form and
plane.
If you are miserable and unhappy
You do not become happy by going to
another town or State. You carry your
wretchedness with you.
1t is precisely the same when you
rush out of the body by your own act.
If you are called out of the body by
the same Power that brought you in
to the world, then it is safe to suppose
that conditions are ready for you to
start anew in another place.
Wait for that call.
The actor who rushes upon the
stage before his cue is given spoils the
play and ruins his own chances for
glory
Keep behind the earthly scenes until
you hear the call. Meanwhile think
we'll of your lines and be ready to do
your best when called.
However discouraged you may he
thousands of successful and happy
people in the world to-day have been
just as discouraged and unhappy as
YOU are at some time in their lives.
In Greater New York there lives to-
day a woman, who less than a year

She had made a mistake; she had
lost her self-respect, and every inn

her. Hunger and misery for those dear

despair and remorse, all combined to
turn her thoughts toward the coward's g
goal-suicide.
But seeming accident deferred her.
and now in less than a year all has
changed. She has risen to new spiri-
tual and moral heights, she has OBJ
tanned work and is leading a good,
useful, Christian life.
She is making those dear to her
happy and comfortable.
