Seminole Under
New Management

On Monday of this week, Mrs,
Alfred RushtOn assumed charge of
the Seminole Hotel, leasing it
from the new owners, and will
conduct it upon a high plane as an
all the year hostelry.
Mrs. Rushton has had a varied
experience in the hotel business,
having successfully handled a
number of Florida houses. She
comes here from Manatee where
she has been engaged in the bust
ness and she retains an interest in
a hotel there, two of her sisters
being in direct charge.
Mrs. Rushton is highly spoken
of by the travelling public and
there is every reason to believe
that the Seminole in her charge
will attain to just popularity a
.mong the smaller hotels of the
state. Having her sister, Mrs. G..
A. Perry, with her here, the two
amiable ladies will endeavor to
make the place home-like to all
patrons.
Watch these columns for an ad-
vertisement that will appear later.

The Prodigal Father

The parable of the prodigal son
is one of the most familiar and one
of the most admired in Scripture.
Everybody knows it; everybody
understands it; and everybody
approves it heartily. Millions
of sermons have been preached
from it; and whenever such SER
mon was preached, some father
has turned his gaze on some son
who by some miracle had been
lured to church and has said with
a glance if not with words. "Now,
my son, you see what comes from
riotous living"
This is not intended to be de-
tense of the son: He deserved to
be made to eat whcatstraw while
he was away and veal when he got
home. But not all the wasting of
substance is being done by the
heir Of the family; sometimes
father is guilty Of little wasting
himself.
Father also has a patrimony
in which the son may be pardoned
for having some interest He may
have a farm that is growing good
crops, a skill that pays him good
wages; and he has part owner
ship in the town in which, or near
est which he lives. He may have
contributed much or little to that
town or that community. But, no
matter how much or how little,
his residence in that neighborhood
entities him to reap those benefits.
The town and the community
are as much a part of his estate
as his farm or his house. Money
has but one value, after all, its on
ly value is to provide us with the
necessities and comforts and
pleasures of life and to insure our
old age. Likewise the communi-
ty provides us with many of those
pleasures and comforts. When a
man hurts the town or the c0mmu-
nifty or does nothing to help it, he
is wasting his substance just as
much as the son who wasted it in
riotous living.
If you are son and your father
sends his money away to the mail
order houses, to the detriment of
the town; if he does nothing for
the town and the community and
is not interested in movements for
their upbuilding and welfare; if
he is devoting no time to making
this a more pleasurable and more
comfortable town to live in-then
father is a prodigal father who is
wasting his substance; and the
first duty of the prodigal son after
he gets home is to take the prodi-
gal father into the front room and
give him a heart-to-heart talk
about it.
