Wilson Oldest President.

President Wilson is the oldest exec
utive to preside over the destinies of
the United States for the last 60
years. When he is inaugurated for
the second time, March 5, he will be
go years old, span of years that no
president has crossed since the inau-
guration of Buchanan, in 1857.
incidentally, the President is one Of
the six oldest executives ever in the
White House. Previous to 1861 the
men chosen to hold the reigns of gov
eminent generally reached late pc
Rod in life before their election.
John Adams was 81 when Inaugural
tated, in 1877; jackson was also 81
when first inaugurated, in 1929. Ben
jamin Harrison was the oldest man
ever chosen for the presidency, being
6S at the time of his Inauguration, in
1871. Taylor was GA and Buchanan
IS when they were inaugurated, res
epctively.
Aside from these, all presidents
have been younger than Wilson when
entering the White House. This has
been particularly noticeable in the last
so years, when all executives have
been comparatively young. Theo-
dore Roosevelt was the youngest pres
ident ever inaugurated in this country,
being but AZ when he took office.

OF FLORIDA
CITIES AND TOWNS.
Edwin d. Lambright in
Tampa Tribune.

He had travelled over Florida and the
map had been impressed
On his many mental tablets-Pensaco-
la to Key West
And you couldn't doubt his knowledge,
for he surely had the hunch
On the names Of all the places, from
Yulee to Saddle Bunch.
But he stuck to it so constantly, and
he toured the State so long,
That he strained his cerebelium and
his tired brain went wrong;
Until now, at Chattahoochee, Gagged
within the paddle cells,
From early dawn till late at night,
he tragically yells:
Alfalfa, Micanopy, Panasoffkee, Boni-
fay,
Sarasota, Wakahoota, Ocoee, Fin
holloway,
Palma Sofa, Umatilla, Cisco and Es-
tero Bay.
Tallahassee, Kanapaha, Ocklockonee,
Manatee,
Pasadena, Ponneannah, Pickolata,
Muckalee;
All board for Okahumpka, Withlacoo-
chez, Nocatee.
Well just take trip to Joppa, Mic
cosukee and Quintette,
Visit Ichetucknee, Chuluota, Rye and
don't forget
To see Juno sigh to Jupiter, Romeo
to Juliette
Interlachen, Hypoluxo, Econfnu and
Lanark,
Homosassa, Izagora, Early Bird and
Orange Park;
Take in Jacksonville by daylight and
Ocala after dark.
Change cars here for Eucheeanna;
stranger have you even been
To Lacoochee, Ocklawaha, Injunham-
oc, New Berlin,
To Thonotosassa, Goshen, Wewahitch-
ka or to Lynne?
Then there's Largo and Narcoosee,
Ybor, home of the cigar,
Cerro Gordo, Stillepica,
Malabar,
And so on, ad infinitum, till you don't
know where you are
Now l caught this rhyme internal, as
| heard this mailman rant,
And 1 thought l would add to it, but
regret to say can't
For Sopchoppy and Eau Gallie were
the next names on the list,
Then Ochesee and Ocklocknee-please
excuse me- desist.
