MORE TODAY AND MORE TO COME

Appropriations from the press of
Florida of the Prosperity and Prog
ress Edition of the Telegram still
| continue to come in. 1t is excellent
reading matter, for it spreads the
fame of Lakeland and Polk county
and helps to widely advertise our
resources and show to the world
some of the things our people have
done here in this garden spot of the
State. Among recent notices of the
edition are the following:
THE Annual Progress and Pros
perity Edition of the Lakeland Ev-
ening Telegram is notable both as
finished product of the printers art
and for the high quality of its con-
tents. 1t consists of fifty pages, is
printed in magazine form and is pro-
fusely illustrated with half-tones. 1t
tells a comprehensive and attractive
story of the possibilities and achieve
ments of Polk county. The edition
covers every form of endeavor in the
county and is a model of boost litera-
ture of the right kind. There are no
extravagant claims as to what may
be accomplished in that section of
Florida; the simple recital of what
has been done is sufficient and far
more effective than any fine phrases
of an over-Zealous booster could pos
sibly be. A glance through the edi-
ton gives one a vivid Impression of
the green groves, fine farms and the
sparkling lakes that have made Polk
county one of the favored spots Of
Florida. Such boosting as the Lake
land Telegram has done is the kind
to bring new settlers and capital to

Undoubtedly among all classes of
our people the most popular charity
in the State is the Childrens Home
Society of Florida. up in Jackson
Vile, where orphans are received,
taken care of and provided with
homes. Marcus G.. Fagg is the super
intendent of that society, which is
supported by voluntary contribu-
tions from all parts of the State, and
is not represented by travelling
agents or solicitors, and Mr.. Fagg
sends cut warning that there are
several women now working" vari-
Gus parts of Florida, pretending to
be soliciting funds for the society.
He says that they are imposters and
frauds and should be treated accord
ingly. The Bradentown Herald
noting this warning from Mr..
Fagg very truthfully adds:
There are many frauds of this
kind trying to do the people of
Florida, especially during the win
ter months, when wintry winds
make the North too uncomfortable
for them. There are plenty Of ways
of contributing to. the wants Of the
unfortunate without dropping money
into the hand of strangers who are
here today and gone tomorrow, and
who arc more than apt to be frauds. ="

Richard H. Edmonds, editor of
the Manufacturers Record, one of
the closest Of observers and best in
formed of men concerning Florida
and the South generally, pays such
a glowing compliment to the Florida
press that it might be deemed ex-
travagant if it didn't come from a
practical, hard-headed man of af-
fairs, who deals chiefly in facts,
weighs his words and never slops
over. Mr.. Edmonds is right about
the Florida press. From a some
wha. extensive acquaintance with
the subject we don't hesitate to say
that no State in the union has better
newspapers, published in towns and
cities of the same population, than
Florida. The newspaper people of
this State are. as a rule, a BRIGHT
and capable bunch, and they stand
for progress aggressively and all the
time.

A NEW MONROE DOCTRINE"
NECESSARY

SCO0Hhr
Senator j. Hamilton Lewis, of Hi

States would interfere in any dispute
between a European power and an
other American country only if asked
to do so and that the name be
changed to american Doctrine

of serious consideration This doc

TIE MANAGEMENT
OF A HUSBAND

paper Delivered by Mrs. w. r. Ora
ham at Meeting of Farmers Club
| have had so short a time in
which to prepare this paper that |
am confident I am unable to do JUS
tice to so important a subject, which
l regret as the subject is so broad
that it cannot be treated in the
cursory manner which l am COM
PEELED by lack of time to employ
Had l been given as theme How
My Husband Managed Me-" very
short time spent in reviewing the
many essays on the subject written
by che self-styled Lords of Crea-
ton" would have sufficed to make q
lengthy article. Among many 9TH
ers of the class l will refer you to
the well known Tanning of the
Shrew' as sample.
On good authority it is necessary
to first catch him young as he is
then in the plastic stage and more
inclined to good advice. But no hus-
band likes to be managed, and it is
therefore very necessary to use tact
and proceed with some caution, let
ting him think that he is the man
ager. and not the managed. If he is
fond OF good eating, and very few
men are not, your task is somewhat
easy. Never make a suggestion as to
his work, or ask any favors when
he is hungry; always wait until af-
ter a good meal, while his digestion
is going on slowly and smoothly.
This advice is summed up in the
old saying: Feed the brute ex-
pressed also in somewhat better
style, THE road to mans heart
lies through his stomach .
But the greatest essential in the
management of a husband is love,
which enables us to overlook his fol-
lies. faults and vices, also a lubri-
cant which causes the wheels of life
to turn easily and carries us along
without a creak. When the small
clouds that sometimes arise in mar
ried life become apparent do not,

full, exercise patience and forbear-
ance and the skies will soon clear

in time it will dawn upon him that
you are indispensable to his comfort,
happiness and pleasure. The Bible
tells US that woman was given man
to be & helpmate, and If you appre-
ciate the true meaning of this say
ing, your task will be easy.
We are told that good wives make
good husbands, and when I see SO

you wives on the able and successful

newspapers ought to seek.

In any event, the State Press Asso-
citation, as representing all of the
newspapers of Florida could set in
motion the machinery necessary to
secure the reforms needed.
Newspapers want and ought to
want only justice, but under recent
decisions it is apparent that burden
is placed upon the press not contem-
plated by the people, and which in
actual practice, works to the disad.
vantage Of both the press and the
people. Basing its decision on the
: bill of rights. the supreme court was
probably exactly correct in its reas-
goning in the Tampa Tribune case, the
difficulty not being the position OF
that body toward the press, but the at.
titude Of the wrietten law, itself.
In the united action of the State
Press Association. the newspapers
have their only hope of a speedy re-
lief from the present situation

After reading what Prophet Pas
tor Russell told the people on the
subject up in Jacksonville the other
day, we are not so understanding
that he has the right dope-that we
are in any particular hurry for the
European war to come to an early
finish. Said that good man to his
helpless audience:
Following the great European
struggle, there will be such an
earthquake that man has never
known before. And following this
earthquake will be reign of an
archy, resulting from the failure of
mankind to adjust themselves to the
new conditions.

Hats off to Rev. Thomas W.
Spicer. of Leesburg, The Punta
Gorda Herald says that he is the dis
coverer of that great forage product
known as Natal hay. Emerson or
some other illustrious highbrow en-
balmed in immortal epi2ram the man
who made two blades of grass grow
where only one grew before, and
Brother Spicer is a close second to
that undesignated individual, with
the distinct advantage that we know
his name and habitat and upon
whose brow to put the laurel. Natal
hay means so much to Florida that
there can be no standard of compar-
ison.
