The incoming mayor has been in
terviewed as to the policy to be pur-
sued toward that ever present trou-
bles the redlight resorts. DR.. Chace
thinks the city should do what it can
to separate them as widely as possible
from the homes and schools of the
town, and intends to recommend the
council to do what it can to protect
the colored schools from the often
occurring spectacle of men, some
times intoxicated, passing the schools
on their way to and from the said re-
sorts. He is opposed to the system
CT occasionally arresting and filming
the women, which is special of
blackmail license that the best peo-
PIE of the city have expressed dis
taste for. 1t is his desire that the
police see that the resorts are quiet
and orderly, and when they are that
their unfortunate inmates be left in
peace.

Some of the papers that opposed
Nh. Cats very strenuously have dis
covered since he was elected that he
is mighty fine fellow, and are piling
the taffy on pretty thick. That's dis
gushing. When Mr.. Cats does some
thing deserving praise this paper viii
cheerfully accord it to him; but thus
far, we can see no difference between
Mr.. Cats, the candidate, and Mr.,
Cats, the governor-elect. The mere
accident Of his election has not chang
ed his nature, nor has it invested him
with attributes he did not possess
prior to that event. Let us hope that
the predictions by Mr. Cats friends
Of a good and wise administration on
his part may be justified by the event;
but the mere fact Of his success at the
polls does not justify change from
severe structures to fulsome fattery.

retain our self-respect, and not give

Rev. n J. Hawley of Gainesville
was in the city, visiting his friends
here today. Mr.. Hawley is one of the
cid veterans of the Florida Methodist
Conference, which is now the st.
Johns River Conference, and has
charge of about forty churches, most
ly on the eastern side of the state.
Mr. Hawley with his family came to
Florida from Pennsylvania in 1886,
remained eleven years and then went
back to Pennsylvania. He now re-
turns to Florida to spend the winter
with his daughter, Mrs. Mary II.
Spencer, the public health nurse, and
expects to see many of his old friends.
Mr.. Hawley, who the writer has
counted among his best friends for
over quarter of a century, paid the
Star pleasant call. He left this aft
ernoon for a visit to Tampa.

we had just heard Mrs. Sherman say
IN regard to our beautiful trees, birds
and animals being destroyed. She
recalled her childhood, when they had
ice cream for dinner, and cream in
those days was so dear to children's
hearts, she had to wait for the grown
folks to eat and she found herself
wondering when she did get the cream
as to whether she would eat it from
the sides or dip down in the top,
when to her dismay she was told at
was all gone" She related this in
connection with our trees, birds and
animals, stating that she feared there
would be none left for our children,
therefore they should be protected.
So it was with US waiting in line,
and we could but think perhaps it
would be call gone" before our time
came. But not so, there was plenty
for all.
The "Pinapolo" folks were on hand
with large truck load of this new
drink
Some of US who were all eagerness
to see and explore, having heard of
the trails into the hammock, decided
to follow Mr.. Mosher, the superin-
tendent. He says there are 231 spe-
cies of different growth in this land,
several things in that county not
found anywhere else.
Tired but happy we started on our
long journey home, about $3.50. On
reaching the hotel, we ate dinner and
then prepared for another entertain
ment. Quoting from a Miami paper:
at takes crowd of women to travel
fifty miles, have big dedication pro-
gram, drive back again and begin eve
ming sessions of convention exactly
as it nothing had happened. Mere man
would have declared a recess to re-
cuperate after such trip as the
members of the Florida Federation of
Women's Clubs took yesterday"
The chairman of this evening pro-
gram showed tact and thought in
giving something entertaining in
every way: Mrs. William Little in
Shakspere's women, some splendid
music, and last, but not least, a pro-
fessional aesthetic dancer. This eve
ning's program was perfect end to
perfect day.

The Star approves of the grand
jury censuring any and all officers
who are derelict in their duty, but il
thinks it in error in recommending
that the Offices of justice of the peace
and constable be abolished These
offices, when filled with good men,
greatly expedite justice and save the
people in the country districts much
trouble and expense. It's up to the
people to fill them with good men,
and when they don't they have to
suffer for it. So far as the Star
knows, the average justice of the
peace or constable fills his place in
the structure of government about
as well as any other official

poets that he, the council and the peo-
pie will work together tremendously
for the good of the city, and that an
suspicious and progressive year is
before US.

Cough Medicine for Children

Mrs. Hugh Cook, Scottsville, N. Y,
says: "About five years ago when we
were living in Garbutt, N. Y, doc
tored two of my children suffering
from colds with Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and found it just as repre-
sented in every way. 1t promptly
checked their coughing and cured
their colds quicker than anything /
ever used" Obtainable everywhere.

learn that Mr.. Chas. w Hunter has
leased that handsome and historic old

THE PATHFINDER.
Leslie's Weekly.

The worlds greatest nuisance is
the faultfinder, for he is conspicu-
Gus everywhere. He does not hide
his light under bushel nor speak
in whisper. His mission is to
be seen and heard.
The Creator in six days made
the universe and when it was fin
ished declared that the work was
good. Yet, since its, creation, the
world has been full of faulttinderS
who do not think it is good enough
for them.
The peculiarly of the habitual
Pathfinder is that he has no reason
to find fault. He disturbs the
serenity of those who are happy
and who would enjoy peace and
contentment but for him.
Nothing satisfies the Pathfinder
and no era has been free from his
tantallzing presence. The fault
finders exasperated Moses on the
mount until he dashed to pieces
the stone tables inscribed with the
first written laws of God. But the
Ten Commandments remain the
law of God and man.
The faultfnder is the bane OF
the family circle. He undermines
affection, destroys peace and breeds
discomfort. He is the fly in the
ointment, the unwslcOme intruder
He makes the task of the genuine
reformer more difficult.
He blocks the path of progress
He cumbers the statutes with un-
necessary and unavoidable laws
He dictates destructive policies tc
those in authority and makes then
cover before his vitriolic tongue
his poisonous pen and pestiferou'
persistence.
No church has been without it,
Pathfinder, no social organization
no snop, factory or office and NJ
movement for the public good i!
exempt from his intrusion.
The Pathfinder is found every
where, scattering the seeds of dis
trust, poisoning the minds of those
who will listen, marshalling TIN
forces of unreason, casting sha
dows Oh the sun, dimming TIN
light of the stars, mOcklDg tn
hopes of humanity and challeng
ing the goodness of beneticen
Providence.
Out with the Pathfinder! w
have no room for him.

DECORATOR MUST BE ARTIST
10 Compelled to Have Wide knowl.
edge to Practice Profession
These Days.

Formerly the decorator or painter
merely had to deal with colors and
paints, and use them to the best ad.
vantage. Nowadays a decorator Is
compelled to have knowledge Of the
several branches in rugs, furnishings
and draperies, their adaptation, selec.
ton and utility, and v the plaster.
ing branch OF building construction,
advising for rough or smooth plaster,
relief or stucco work, carpenter or
cabinet work, says the Real Estate
Magazine. He must make himself
familiar with all these things in or.
der to carry out his scheme and pro.
duce the effects which he may desire
to produce in the respective rooms Of
the modern house.
The decorating, and, to some ex.
tent, the furnishing. has become al.
most as much a part Of his calcula.
ton and work as the mere painting.
He must make his interiors handsome
and inviting. The tenant when nego.
tiating for q first-class house Is no
longer content with bare, white walls
and plain floors. The demand in such
cases is for a house that is finished
according to the modern idea Like
everything else in building construc.
tion, these pcrplex!ties are turned over
to the architect to solve, but the mod.
ern metropolitan owner or manager
must take them into his business
along with brick, cement and steel.
