 The letter he received follows:

REWARD NOT ALWAYS TO GREAT

A London booksellers catalog an
 nounces a copy of Browning's first book for S220O Yet. when it was
 printed. in 1883, through the assistanse of the poets aunt. Mrs. Silverthorne. the poet would have been glad to have sold a copy in it's little drab boards
 for few shillings. The reason it is
 worth so much money now is that few
 of them have survived. and his partic-

PUNTA GoRDA TAKE
Five Thousand Dollars of War
Saving Stamps

Last Friday afternoon, in the
Plaza Theatre, closed the War
Stamp campaign, for awhile at
least. The business houses closed
from 8 to 5 'clock in order that
the business men could partici-
pate in the patriotic rally and
sign their pledges. The theatre
was comfortably filled, but it was
noticed that the ladies were much
in the majority. Mayor Trabue
presided over the meeting and the
following gentlemen spoke con-
vincingly, urging the citizens to
invest in war-stamps. Professor
Bell spoke first, giving the pur-
pose of the meeting and making
an appeal He was followed by
Colonel Hancock, whose address
es are always enjoyed by our peo-
pie. Next followed DR.. Afford,
minister Of the Presbyterian
church, who made a forceful and
eloquent address. The last, but
not least, was Rev. ID. A. Cole of
the Methodist church, whose adj
dress was thoroughly enjoyed.
After the addresses, pledges
were taken and the campaign de-
clared closed. All responded lib
orally, but very few joined the
one-thousand dollar club. Two
names alone appear in that list,
that of Mrs. N. G. Hewitt and Mrs.
E. w. Smith. Others ranging
from six hundred dollars down to
two hundred, fifty, were w. M.
Written, Charles Smith, and T. G.
Crosland.
The entire amount subscribed
was in round numbers, five thous-
and dollars. Had the campaign
been conducted later in the sea-
son, when our summer sojourners
at pleasure resorts had returned,
the pledges would have been
much larger. A list of those who
have contributed will be publish
ed later, and those who have not
pledged are expected to pledge
and will be solicited thus giving
them chance; so they are asked
not to feel sighted. Those who
intend to invest right away, and
who did not pledge in this cam

Home Canning and Preserving

No dealer in food commodities
in the state of Florida shall sell an
individual purchaser more than
twenty-five pounds of sugar for
home canning or preserving, or
non-commercial use, unless the ap-
plication for an amount of sugar
in excess of twenty-five pounds is
signed by the county food admin
istrator of the county in which the
purchase is to be made. Nom
commercial preserving or canning
is construed to be that in which
the articles so preserved or can
ned are used for home consump-
tion and not intended for distribu-
ton through regular trade chan
nels. Where the canning or pre-
serving is for commercial pur-
poses, certificate must be obtained
through the sugar department of
Food Administration at Orlando.
The dealer will be allowed to hon
or an initial application for an a.
mount not exceeding twenty-five
pounds, but subsequent purchases
can only be made by prescr+"tion
Of the regular form of certificate
bearing the signature or stamp of

Greater Florida" Men to Meet
in Leesburg

Leesburg, Fla, July 3.-O1
considerable interest to the people
of the state is the meeting OF the
directors of the Greater FLORIDA
Association, which President G. G.
Ware of this place has called to be
held here July 70.
Mr.. Ware called the meeting al
ter conference with some of the
directors who came here to dis
cuss the present situation.
1t is understood that the meet
ing will be for the purpose OF de-
vising methods of thoroughly CO.
operating with other organiza-
tons in the state in making such
representations to Washington as
may be necessary to secure posi-
tive assurances of proper facilities
for the transportation of Flori-
da's perishables next season in
their movement to the North.
. 1t is said that the matter of urg-
ing the ACCESSIBILITY of keeping
open certain tourists routes to
Florida, also, may receive consid-
Grafton. Estimates of the effect
upon the northern coal situation
of the removal to Florida of
thousands of winter residents, will
probably be presented at the meet
ing.
The matter of the movement of
perishable fruits and vegetables
probably will receive first consid-
Grafton. Other organizations, no
tably the Florida Citrus Ex-
change, have the same thing UNI
der consideration; and the meet
ing here will probably evolve a
plan which will focus the energy
of all those desiring to work to
this end upon the matter in such
way as to assure action.
The directors expected to par
ticipate in the meeting, who rep
resent every section and indus
try of the state are G. G. Ware,
Leesburg; F. G. Grower, Jackson
vile; d. G. Gillette, Tampa; z. c.
Chumbliss, Ocala; w. A. Blount,

CAMPAIGN NOT ENDED
No County in the State Sub
scribed It's Full Quota

June 28th did not end the War
Savings campaign in Florida, &C
cording to State Director Griggs,
and efforts are being continued
throughout the state until the en-
tire quota of $20,600,0 100000 is
raised. Not a county in Florida
was successful in pledging to buy
| its full quota during the June
drive, although a number Of small
towns did purchase their full
quota and some of them went con-
siderably over.
The state director believes the
apparent apathy of Florida peo-
pie to the call of the government
was due largely to the lack of un-
derstanding of the principle of
War Savings and of the necessity
of every man, woman and child
participating in this campaign.
County organizations all worked
day and night to attain the mark
set for them, but there were so
many misunderstanding about
what each individual was expect
ed to do that it will require many
weeks for most of the counties to
pledge their full quota.
The campaign was purely one
for taking pledges and no special
effort was made to sell stamps
outright. The purpose of this was
to reach every man, woman and
child in each county and that is
till the purpose. 1t is not the "a
mount of dollars that counts, but
the interest and patriotism which
these dollars manifest for each
community. Many smart invest
ors have made repeated appeals
that they be allowed to purchase
above the limit, which is evidence
of the splendid investment feat
ure of the stamps, but what the
government wants is for each
small investor to feel his obliga-
ton to his government sufficient
ly to wish to own a part of its
capital stock.
1t is estimated by the state d.
rector that some eight or ten nil
lion dollars were pledged and sold
up to June 2Sth; exact figurN are
not yet available, but suffici Vt re-
ports have been received TO iGdi
cate that over fifty per cent Of The
amount has been subscrin q

Coming To Florida

The ola dQage. LII is al Ill
wind that blows nobody good" is
again in evidence, as the papers
all over the North arc discussing
the fuel question, even with the
thermometer lowering around the
hundred mark, and predicting
that thousands will go from every
community to Florida this winter,
to avoid the severe weather of the
North with little or no fuel to
keep them warm.
Prominent families from Michi-
gan, Illinois, Wisconsin and other
middle Western states, who came
South last winter rather than face
the rigorous climate of their home
sections, reported that people
were standing in line with buck
cts and slcds to get even small
supply of coal, and many had
really suffered from the cold.
Even the weather. people, who
had not provided against an un-
usually severe winter, ran short
and many of them closed up their
homes and came to Florida to re-
main until warm weather.
This year the exodus will be
greater than ever as the people
are forewarned and many of them
are already making their plans to
spend the entire winter in Florida,
where they can live in comfort
and, in most cases, at saving.
Those who have given the matter
careful study say that the saving
in fuel and heavy winter clothing,
which are unnecessary in Florida,
will more than pay their expenses
down and back and living here is
but little if any higher than at
their homes, and they are COM
Portable.
1t is known that many retired
farmers and people who are not
actually employed in the winter
have found it cheaper to come to
Florida than remain at home, and
it. is this which has steadily in
creased the number of winter res
identS all over the state in the
past ten years. Thousands Of
them own comfortable winter
homes, varying from a three-room
cottage to mansion, according to
their tastes and purse, and they
are the most enthusiastic boosters
for Florida as the major portion
of them have had their lives pro-
longed by escaping the terrible
winters of the North and they
have found real life and enjoy
ment in the land of sunshine and
flowers, where the birds sing
sweetly and the refreshing green
of the foliage and the beautiful
colorings of the semi-tropical
flowers meet the eye on every side.
That there will be decided in
crease in the number of tourists
and winter visitors the coming
season is generally conceded and
preparations to take care of them
should be made as soon as posi-
BILE. The people of the North are
making more money than ever be-
fore and they will spend some of.
1t in coming to Florida. 1t is ex-
pected that the number of motor
lists will be nearly doubled, on ac-
count of the increase of railroad
rates and because of the fact that
