march on Paris.
The whole French position in the
Verdun angle consists of row after
row Of strongly fortified field posi-
tions, extending for miles both in
front and in the rear of Verdun. In
earlier violent assaults the Germans
have beaten whole army corps to
pieces in attempts to break through
this defensive chain. It is believed
here that the losses they must sus-
tain in the present offensive will de-
feat their attempts, though it is
recognized that the French, too, must
suffer heavy casualties in the Verdun
fighting.

Anger Upsets Cats

Whom the gods would destroy

that Cats has temper he cannot
'ontrol and that he completely
loses his head when he becomes
angry. One of his good friends,
a prominent politician in West
Florida, told the Record recently
that the way to beat Cats was
to "get him mad" And he is
rufied some, gentlemen, he is ruff
fled some. Desperate under the
fire of criticism precipited by
his insult of every high school
girl in the State, he hits in the

in the Stacker class" we did not
imagine that the effort would lead
to the consumption of acres OF
even columns of newspaper space
in a highly interesting discussion
of the matter, especially from the
viewpoint of the Arcadia News
that the two papers first named
had slammed" Arcadia by I'm
nuendo." Brother Jones, the
able, interchangeable, courteous and
admirable 1--WE are in earnest in
the use of all those adjectives) ed
itor of the News, after printing
many columns urging that the Ar
cadia district and parts of adjoin-
ing districts be bonded for good
roads, thereby misleading RUDE
Allyn into putting the whole coun-
ty in the "slacker class" now,
in his Saturdays issue, reprints
all that Editor Goolsby Of the Ad-
vocate has said, gracefully pleads
guilty to the charge of having
been the unintentional cause of
Rube Allyn's unjust reflection up
on the county, says lots of nice
things about the editors of Wau-
chula, Zolfo and Punta Gorda as
well as the progressiveness of
their districts, and calls upon
those three editors to use their in
liuence to induce Commissioners
Whitehurst, Skipper and Written
to support the proposition of the
News for bonding the Arcadia
district. At the same time, Broth
err Jones intimates that his own
commissioner, Maj. Wells, is op-
posed to his proposition.
Well, well The Herald is a
strong advocate of local self-gov-
eminent 1t believes that, if the
people of any given territory wish
to issue bonds for good roads or
any worthy object, and if they
have the necessary taxable prop
erty, they should be permitted
to do so; and if anything this pa
per or its editor may say can help
along the good cause, it shall be
said gladly. But, mind you,
Brother Jones! bonds should not
be forced upon any unwilling peo-
pie, particularly those outside of
the Arcadia commissioners dis
trict.
Let the people have their own
way. If they wish to establish a
special road district or a new
county Gid, let them have it.

We are surprised at the unkind
remarks the Punta Gorda Herald
made last week about the Tampa
Tribune. Real friendship such as
the Tribune has shown towards Ed

lightly simply because that paper

gubernatorial candidate. - Wau-

ahat he is wasting missionary
work upon the editors of Wauchu-

What is the most important at
tribute of a soldier?
Good feet?
No.
Good eyesight?
No.
Good brains?
No.
What then2
Good teeth.
A soldier may have good feet,
good eyesight, and good brains,
but if he has bad teeth he can t
eat. If he can't eat he can t
march near enough to the enemy
to see him and use his brains to
fight him.
How does soldier get good
teeth?
By having good teeth in child
hood.
How do children keep good
teeth?
Through being taught by their
mother how to keep their teeth
clean and having their teeth look
ed after while they are growing.
This makes good teeth for future
soldiers.
1t would seem then as though
the first patriotic duty of mother
is keep her children teeth
in good condition.
1t is.
