be in no danger of suffocation ordin.

and that II the vessels air apparatus
remained in good order the crew
might survive week submerged He
said, however, that the F.4 lacked
food supplies.
The little flotilla of submarines was
engaged this morning in target prac
tice. 1t was not regarded as unusu-
al that the F-4 should remain under
water for an hour or more in the
course of the maneuvers, but when
noon came and the vessel continued
submerged, anxiety began to be felt.
This increased as the afternoon wore
on, and the other submarines began
a systematic search for the F4.

KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS
DISTRICT CONVENTION
a Good Attendance on an Instructive
Occasion

The district convention of the
Knights of Pythias which was called
several weeks ago to meet in Ocala
on Monday night, August 10th, con-
vened at Castle Hall, with Mr.. d. w.
Tompkins, district deputy grand
chancellor in the chair.
Roll call showed four lodges repre-
sented as follows: Ocala, c. X. Sage

North and r. M. King; Wildwood (Red-
dick) L. S. Light, Jr. and r. w. Nc

ter and DIR. P. L. Lisk.
Mr.. w. H. Sassnet of Jacksonville,
state organizer and acting grand
keeper of records and seals since the
death of Mr.. w. H. Lattimer at Ia
wares several weeks ago, was present
and addressed the meeting at some
length, stating that the lodge in all
sections of the state was in splendid
shape and showed considerable gain
within the past year in spite of un-
favorable conditions.
During the evening a resolution was
passed by the convention recommend
ing the appointment of Mr.. Sassnett
as keeper of records and seals to fill
the unexpired term of Mr.. Lattimer,
who had held the position for twenty
eight years prior to his death.
The secret work was ably exem-
plified by Mr.. Sassnett during the
evening.
Speeches for the "good of the
order" were made by Messrs. ]. G.

After the session which lasted for
over two hours, the sixty odd mem
bers were invited into the ante room
where the Pythians Sisters of the
OcaIa lodge had prepared feast con-
sisting of sandwiches, cakes, ice tea
etc. The appreciation of the Knights
was shown by a vote of thanks to the
ladies who were so thoughtful in pro
viding the splendid luncheon.

Florida's part in the building of the
Dixie Highway is an important one.
As officially announced, the route of
this highway will be as follows: From
Gainesville to Ocala, to Leesburg, to
Eustis, to Mt. Dora, to Orlando, to
Kissimmee, to Barlow, to Arcadia, to
the north side 'of Lake Okeechobee, to
West Palm Beach, to Miami. From
Gainesville north the route was left
To the discretion of the field secre-
tary of the Dixie Highway Commits
sion to choose between proposed
route by Perry to Tallahassee, on one
hand, and by Lake City to Valdosta,
on the other.
When the Florida section of the
Dixie Highway is completed it must
be a road that no one can find fault
with. 1t will carry a heavy traffic
ard must be built right. Economy in
maintenance as well as the lasting
satisfaction of the thousands who
will use the highway demand this.
Fortunately for US, road building
has now passed the experimental
stage. Right here in Florida there
are many miles of asphalt macadam
that has proved that it will stand up
under severe traffic. Notable among
these examples are the Ortega and
ST Johns roads out of Jacksonville.
But that is not all the evidence we
have to guide US as to what our part
OF the Dixie Highway should be.
There is no doubt that the road will
be and should be of the best type of
material, but this term covers a null
titude Of road-building sins
AS each community will pay the
cost, it ought to knew exactly what
