Florida HasssNo :.
Cause To Fear
Slump In The
Tourist Trade

There is no sanction In offlcial
Washington for the rumor which has
reached this and other parts OF Flor
ida that there will be curta'lment
of passenger traffic to this state next
winter. This is the information which
|W. L. Straub was able to secure while
lin Washington last week. When ask
ed yesterday if there was truth IN
the rumor insofar as he could learn,
Mr.. Straub said:
II asked this question Of men in Of
fetal life in position to know ana
they all gave me the same impression.
1t was that there is no truth in the
rumor Of government interference
with passenger travel toward Florida
next winter. On the contrary found
the impression among officials that
we would have bigger season than
ever next year. The idea seemed to
be that it is economy Of fuel, Of hui
man fife and of health for this bust
ress to be encouraged. Barring the
possibility of absolutely necessary use
of all the railroad facilities for war
work, no one to whom talked
seemed to think there was any like
lihood of government order telling
prospective Florida winter visitors to
stay at home"
The rumor of a probably curtail
ment Of passenger travel this way
next winter came to st. Petersburg
yesterday in letter wherein the writ
er had been talking to a railroad man
who professed to know. This railroad
man said he felt sure the government
would check Florida tourist travel
next winter.
Apparently he was talking purely
from the railroad standpoint and
preston. 1t seems to be the general
without any sanction from official ex-
opinion in government circles that the
highest type Of economy would be to
encourage this travel rather than to
discourage it.-St. Petersburg Times

Every American soldier transported

DEITY HURRIED OVER WORK
Why West Coast Of Japanese Island
Is Rough and Dangerous Ex-
planned by Legend.

y It is said in the Ainu folklore that
the Island Of Yezo, In Japan, was
made by two deities, male and fe-
male, who were the deputies Of the
Creator. The female had the west
coast allotted to her as her portion Of
the work and to the male deity were
assigned the south and eastern parts.
They Wed with each other In their
tasks to see which should get through
first. But as the goddess was pro-
ceeding with her work she happened
to meet the sister Of Oionina and in
stead of attending OF her duties, stop
ped to have a chat with her, as is the
general custom among women when
they meet.
While they were thus talking the
time sped until the male deity. con-
tinuing to work away, nearly finished
his portion. Looking up and seeing
this, the female became very much
surprised and frightened, and In or
der to hasten matters did her work
hurriedly and In a slovenly manner.
Hence 1t Is that the west coast of
Yezo is so rough and dangerous, says
an exchange.

CAPTURES OWN BROTHER
Dramatic Incident Occurs on the
Western Front.

Western Front.
The great war--breeder of romance
and adventure-has given birth to one
Of the most dramatic situations record
ed since the kaisers hordes started
on their march through Belgium In
1914.
A United States marine fighting on
the western front recently captured
his own brother during raid on the
enemy trenches. During the days Of
the Civil war, when brother fought
brother and father and son faced
each other through the smoke Of bat
tie, such incidents were more or less
everyday occurrences. But in this,
the greatest Of all wars, writer's have
been quick to say that romance in bat
tie was thing of the past.
Private Harold ]. Dibbs of the u. 8.
marine crops. tells Of the incident In
letter written to his parents In Great
Falls, Mont.
"a strange incident happened when
I went over the top. saw q marine
capture his own brother, who had
been put into the Germany army while
on visit over there. Another soldier
Of an allied nation wanted to kill him,
Gs he had helped in the capture. 1t
was an interesting sight, to be sure.
The brother declared his intention of
joining the American forces"

How japan win Help French.

The officers Of the Japan Kindergar-
ten union received two messages from
the International Kindergarten Union
of America. One is signed by the
president of the union and their inter-
national committee on conservation
and protection of children during the
war, and another by the director Of
the American unit in France. Miss
Fanniebelle Curtis of New York.
These messages, printed in japan,
give the purpose and scope of the kin
dergarten unit. The plan was present
ed to the Japan Kindergarten union at
its twelfth annual meeting held in
Karuizawa, and 1t was unanimously
voted to ask the director of each kin
dergarten in the union to present to
her children this scheme for helping
needy children overseas" before, or by
Thanksgiving day, Of this year. The
sum thus collected will be sent to tho
kindergarten unit of the Red Cross.

WHY u.soats Are Not Sunk.

1t IL only when the naval airman
catches glimpse of a submarine, or
even only that of periscope. that he
experiences thrill which dispels the
monotonous drudgery of the daily
routine, says r.. w. Neeser, In Scrib-
ner's Magazine. But the disappoint-
ments are apt to be frequent, for 1t is
one thing to sight submarine and
quite another to reach position d.
rectly overhead before her crew have
noticed the warning hum Of the sea-
planes motor and have warily con-
cenled their frail craft beneath the pro-
tccting ocean waves. A seaplane may
make daily flights over the Mediter-
ranean, In the Adriatic, across the
Channel, or along the coast of the Bay
of Biscay, for months and months at a
time without ever sighting a single
periscope.

tive Service.

of July Of this year, the aerial sea and
coast patrols Of the French marine COW
cred a total Of 1890 miles.

merous groups Of mines laid by Ger
man submarines In French waters.

HOW SCIENCE PROVES :
SAO " GREAT ANTIQUITY

HOW SCIENCE PROVES
INV GREAT ANTIQUITY
OF DISEASE IN MANKIND
The immense antiquity of dis
case is shown by scars and mall
formations on the fossilizcd re-
mains of animals that lived hun
dreds of millions Of years ago.
Evidence would seem to indicate
that living things did not suffer
from disease until tho carbonif-
erous age. according to Prof.
Roy L. Noodle, writing In the
Scientific Monthly. In thar
period of rampant life, when
the enormous quantities Of veg
etable matter were being depOs-
tied on the earth to become our
coal beds, disease seemingly be-
gan its melancholy career. The
oldest known evidences of patho-
logical conditions among ami
mails are to be found In the re-
mains of very primitive worm
like type Of the coal age. Dur
ing this age there was wide
spread development of bacteria,
which doubtlessly had Its mean
ing In the origin Of disease.
Germ diseases are indicated;
teeth of fossil fishes show evil
dences Of gangrenous conditions.
The period Immediately sue
ceedirg the carboniferous age
was marked by the great devel-
opment Of huge and curious rep
tiles. Fossils Of these reptiles
show widespread disease condi-
tions and give the first evidences
Of injuries as they prevailed
among the early forms Of life.
The prevalence of disease
reached a height during the age
of huge reptiles. and their ex-1
tinction apparently brought
about the disappearance OF many
diseases which attacked them.
At any rate, the incidence Of
diseases went down sharply with
the disappearance Of the reptiles
and remained low until the rise
of our own mammalian type,
when 1t reached very high
point. which still continues.
We know from medieval his
tory that diseases become ex-
tinct, and doubtlessly many of
the maladies from which prehis-
toric animals suffered are now
extinct, and many that we suf-
fer from did not exist among
them.
