WHERE THE INCHES COUNTED
British statesman's Remarkably Neat
Retort to Chalrman's Shaft
Of "Wit."

LloydGeorge's wit on the platform
Is well known, but here Is one of the
neatest retorts he ever made.
He was addressing meeting In
South Wales. according to Pearson's
Weekly. when the chairman, thinking
to be witty at the chancellor's expense.
remarked to the audience that he was
little disappointed in Lloyd-George' 8
appearance.
II had heard 60 much about Mr..
Lloyd George" he said, that l nat
urally expected to meet big man in
every sense: but, as you can see for
yourselves, he Is very small In stat
ure."
Many an orator would have been
grievously upset by such an unfortu-
nate beginning to the proceedings. but
not so Lloyd-George.
II am grieved to find" he said, with
mock seriousness, that your chairman
Ia disappointed in my size. but this is
owing to the way you have here of
measuring a man. In North Wales we
measure man from his chin up, but
you evidently measure him from his
chin down."
After that the chairman made no
more personal remarks.
Speak but little and let that little
be the truth.

physical vigor is concernel yet
might be made into self-sustain-
ing, useful citizens if they had
half chance. Crippled children
are almost invariably industrious,
anxious to learn and almost al
ways are of sunny disposition and
easily managed. Because of their
disabilities many cannot attend
school; parents do not seem to
think it necessary or are unable to
teach them and their mental edu-
cation is almost always neglected.
They should receive at least the
rudiments of mental education !;
kindergarten and primary school
work should be given them, and at
the same time they should have
occupational training"
Manifestly it is impossible to
have these things in a general hos
pital, such as those in which these
unfortunate children are now car
ed for. With a separate and
properly equipped hospital main
tanned in a manner worthy of the
great state of Florida, provision
might be made to care for many
cases now incurable for lack of
adequate facilities and facilities
that increased appropriation
would procure, and the nine little
men and women who were sent out
last year prepared physically to
hold their own against this rather
uncertain world, might be multi
piled many times in the years to
come.
Do the people of Florida wish
to continue and make more useful
this Christ-like charity, to enlarge
its scope and possibilities? 1t is
for the next legislature, which will
meet in April to carry out their
wishes. Tell your representa-
tive what you think about it.

TEUTONIC ALLIES

ON THE RUSSIANS
Capital of Bukowina Again in
Hands of Austrians
ONLY IMPORTANT CHANGE
On The Western Battlefront Con-
ditions Remain Much as for Past
Several Weeks-Situtation I'm
changed in the Carpathians

London, Eng-The general of
fensive of the Teutonic allies a,
long the extended eastean front is
continuing successfully, according
to reports reaching London, but
without any visible forward move
ment on the front toward Warsaw
or in the Carpathians. The Buch-
arast report that the Austrians
have reoccupied Czernowitz, capi-
tai of Bukowina, has not been re-
ceived from any other source, but
Petrograd admits officially that
the Austrians still are advancing
in Bukowina in considerable
force, and that desperate fighting
marks the operations in the Carpa-
thians, where the Russians claim
minor success.
In east Prussia the Russians
have not yet regained. their forti-
fed lines, the German advance,
while not checked, seems to Brit
ish observers to be proceeding
with less speed.
Paris reports that the sole activ-
ity on the western front consits in
artillery engagements in which
guns of the allies have silenced
batteries northeast of Ypres and
destroyed trenches at Beaurains.
In diplomatic circles Germany's
replies to notes from neutral
powers concerning Germany s
proposed marine war zone are "a
waited with interest. Great
Britain reply concerning use of
neutral flags is given secondary

Comptroller Knott S Report

The report of Hon. w. V. Knott,
state comptroller, for the year
1914, is just out of the press. In
| it is presented complete review
of the financial transactions of the
state for the past year.
The finances of the state appear
to be in first-class condition with
plenty of, cash on hand for the
needs of the government.
The question for taxation is a
live one at this time and it is
noted that the increase of the as
sessed valuations for 1914 over
the previous year was approxi-
mately fifty-one and one-half mil
lions of dollars as against twenty
one and one-half millions increase
for the year before, showing a
rapid increase in the wealth of
the state.
In taxes levied the state will
receive $1S5,000 less during the
next year than for the previous
year, while the people will pay in
to the county treasures $937, ,901.-
81 more than they did the year
before.
In other words, the total Of
state and county taxes for the
next year will be over three-quar-
ters of million dollars more than
for the preceding year.
Eight counties will pay an ag-
gregate of $40,96S,87 more and
forty-two counties 1926, ,302.44 less
state taxes and eight counties will
pay $22,665.52 less, and forty-two
counties will pay $960,567 .13 more
county taxes than they did the
past year.
This would indicate that while
the expenses of the state govern
ment are remaining practically
stationery or being reduced the
expenses of the county govern
ments are inceasing at an enor-
mously rapid rate; and that not
withstanding the decrease in the
state millage the people will next
year pay more in taxes than in
any year in the history of the
state.-Jacksonville Times Union.
