Lee county commissioners reject
ed the proposition, and after
wards the Arcadia people, headed
by Ed Scott, captured the State
Road Commission and proclaimed
State Road from Arcadia via
Bermont and Alva to Fort Myers.
This action by Ed Scott and his
compatriots "side-tracked" Pun
ia Gorda and relieved her and
her commissioner Of all respon-
Sibility n the matter of road
connection with Fort Myers.
And now we are "raked ov-
er the Goals" for the errors Of the
Lee county commissioners and the
exploits of His Royal Highness,
Hon. Edmund Scott of the State
Road Department, and his retinue
of road building Arcadians.
Expressing the feeling of this
writer alone, we will say that we
do not care a continental whether
we have any kind of a road, auto
or rail, from here to Fort Myers,
for Punta Gorda has no need for
it. But Fort Myers does need
such road; it is cher funeral, I"
and her county commissioners
ought to officiate. What Punta
Gorda wants is a road to Alva or
LaBelle, or both, to connect with
the Tamiami Trail going to Mi
ami. What Fort Myers really
needs is a road from New Pros
pect via Punta Gorda to Tampa,
and Fort Myers knows it, but her
county commissioners won't let
her have it.
Since the above was in type, we
have had talk with our Com
missioner Whitten and, in the in
terview, he said:
81 am surprised that so fair
a man, and one who is
usually well posted would publish
an article so misleading.
First, the 25th mile post
where Mr., Bruner's truck be
came hopelessly begged is on
the Arcadia-B -Bermont-Fort Myers
road, known as STATE ROAD
NO. 2, which the State Road De-
partment has undertaken to con-
struct and maintain from Camp
Carlstrom to Lee county line,
without assistance from Charlotte
Harbor Special Road and Bridge
or District No. 3 of DeSoto coun-
ty.
Punta Gorda has no control
over the STATE ROAD DE-
PARTMENT. Hence, it is an in
justice to sling a whole column of
mud at Punta Gorda on account
Of the condition Of STATE ROAD
No. g."

quently political debts are paid

the people at home understand
this matter and they will demand

60 into the open market and pur-
chase several hundred extra birds
to meet the demand made by then

ton the acme of perfection in
clothing. These garments have
been the talk Of Omaha this fall.
The unusual quality and excel

public is quick to take advantage
Of the offer.

Try This If You
Have Dandruff

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de-
stroys it entirely. To do this, just
get about four ounces Of plain, or
binary liquid arvon; apply it at
night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in
gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, Of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely de-
stroy every single sign and trace Of
it, no matter how much dandruff
you may have.
You win find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop
instantly, and your hair will be
fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and
soft, and look and feel hundred
times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive, and
four ounces is all you will need.
This simple remedy has never been
known to fail.-Adv.
