The poet Alfieri--he was the sub

Death of Mrs. Haslett

Mrs. Louisa Haslett, wife OF
Joseph j. Haslett, died at her
home here at 11:30 a. m. last
Saturday, 16 inst. Several weeks
ago, she suffered an internal in
jury, shortly after which her con-
dition became serious, but in a few
days she improved to such an ex-
tent that her recovery seemed
certain. However, on Friday
evening she took turn for the
worse and continued to decline
until she passed away as stated.
Her body was embalmed by I'm
dertaker McClelland and, on Sun
day afternoon, it was taken to the
Methodist church where a brief
funeral service was conducted by
Rev. T. H. Sistrunk, the pastor.
Many sorrowing friends were
present, their love for the deceas-
ed being shown by the profusion
Of lovely flowers with which the
casket was covered.
At the conclusion of the servic-
es, the body was taken to the rail
way depot and, at 4;10 p. m. it
left on the train for Mrs. Haslett IS
former home at Guthrie, Oklaho-
ma, where the final interment
will take place. The bereaved
husband and a daughter, Miss
Nancy, accompanied it.
Mrs. Haslett was of German de-
scent. She was born in Indiana,
Jan. 2Sth, 1854; and on October
End, 1872, in Clinton county, near
Lafayette, Ind, she was married
to Joseph j. HaSlett. She became
the mother of ten children, seven
of whom, four girls and three
boys are living and, with the ex-
ception of Miss Nancy, reside out
side of Florida.
The family moved to Oklaho-
ma about 1879 and lived there
twenty-three years. Mr.. and Mrs
Haslett and their two unmarried
daughters moved from there tC
Florida III 1912 and came to Pun
ia Gorda on Thanksgiving day OF
that year. Since then, they have
made many friends here, all Of
whom are deeply grieved by Mrs
Haslett S death. She was {
faithful wife, a devoted mother
a generous friend and true
Christian. For many years sh,
was a loyal member of the Meth
odist church.
On leaving here Sunday even
ing, Mr.. Haslett and his daugh
ter, Miss Nancy, asked that thei
heartfelt thanks be extended t
the many kind friends who ad
ministered to Mrs. Haslett during
her illness and, on her death, man
ifested true and touching sympa
thy for her bereaved husband ano
daughter.

United States Must
Guard Its Freedom by
Armed Hosts
By HENRY H. SHEETS, Secretary
Association For National Service

OUR national independence,
\ J freedom, growth, unifcation
and every institution that
we hold dear have been won and
maintained by the fighting man.
THE FIGHTING MAN IS OUR
HOPE OF THE FUTURE JUST AS
HE HAS BEEN OUR STRENGTH IN
THE PAST. g.. .-...
Government is a. rule of force,
We have a scattered army of men
who bear loaded weapons, ready to
shoot. This army includes police
men, sheriffs, marshals, deputies,
wardens, watchmen, messengers,
guards, constables, transportation
employees and rangers, who pre-
serve the peace by being ready to-
shoot. This army numbers more
than two million men armed for
peace, ready to shoot. Because. OF
them we live secure, marry, trade
and travel; taxes and revenues arS
paid, peace and order maintained
and life and property preserved.
AS the men of Israel stood more
than three thousand years ago I'M
der the colors and about the taber-
nacle, so must stand the fighting
hosts about the temple of human
liberty, THE TEMPLE OF AMER
ICAN LIBERTY, OR ELSE BE

Pull or Push

Is there any such thing as pull !?
Does the horse pull the cart, or does
he simply push on his collar and so
draw it along? Would you pull a
weight that was fastened to your
coat tails, or in that case would you
simply be pushing against your
clothes? This is an interesting
problem. Think it over.

Evolution of Clothing.

Centuries ago, as Sir Walter
Scott says in '1vanhoe," men wore
one thickness of clothes, whether Of
wool, leather or velvet. The shirt
was invented, but for long time
was worn only by the nobility and
gentry. Then followed the waist
coat, breeches, and, later on, trou-
sers. The overcoat, which succeed
ed the medieval cloak, was rare I'M
til the seventeenth century.

Statesmen.

The great difference between the
real statesman and the pretender
is that the one sees into tile future,
while the other regards only the
present; the one lives by the day
and acts on expediency; the other
acts on enduring principles and for
immortality.-Burke.

The election held here Satur-
day to decide whether or not to
issue 100000 for the conStruc-
ton of additional school buildings
in this sub-district, resulted in a
vote of AZ for bonds and 70 a.
gainst. The voters evidently felt
that the 100000 of town bonds,
the $200,000.00 of special district
road bonds and the $130,000.00
voted for Charlotte Harbor bridge
and roads, were and are about all
that the taxpayers are now able
to assume and pay.
