British War Exhibit to be Shown
at State Fair

That the Florida State Fair and
Exposition which will be held in
Jacksonville from February 26 to
March 9, inclusive, will be much
greater than is shown by the an
nouncement made by General
Manager B. x. Hanafourde, who
is now in Washington, to the eff
feet that he had secured the big
British war exhibit for the expo
.sition.
This exhibit, which will cover
AN area Of 5000 square feet space,
will be transported to this city in
five 60-foot baggage cars, and was
only secured at enormous expense
by the state fair officials, who real
lied its value as an added attrac-
tion to the fair, and as an educa-
tional feature concerning the
world war.
The decision to endeavor TO get
the British war exhibit for the
state fair was reached several
days ago at conference between
A. P. Anthony, F. C. Grower, A.
r. Perry and Mr.. Hanafourde, and
the latter was instructed to pro-
coed to Washington Immediately.
This exhibit has only been shown
in New York ond Washington, and
is something entirely new to the
people of this section Of the coun-
try.
This exhibit will include all the
ornaments, guns, huge tanks, gas
protectors, shells, guns, cannons
and other paraphernalia used by
the British and French armies in
France and Belgium, and many
captured relics from the Germans
and Austrians, in addition to GER
tain kinds of guns, sabers, swords
and cruel weapons used by the
Turks in the East against the Brit
ish-Times- Union.

FISHING WITH SEINES
Advocated by East Coast Fisher
men

SO much has been said and
printed lately about the Florida
fishing law, because of its relation
to food conservation and the at
tempts to set it aside during the
war, that the following expression
of views by large wholesale fish
ing firm on the East Coast will be
read with interest. 1t appeared
i'm the Times Union of the 18th as
a special from Jensen. Ricou &
Sons have fsh-packing houses not
only at Jensen, but at Fort Pierce,
Titusville and other East Coast
points.
Here is what they say:
AS there is considerable discus
sion about the fishing industry of
this state, the nets being used, the
size Of the mesh, etc, we will make
the following statement for publ
cation:
This firm has produced four mil
lion pounds of fish since the LIST
day of August, 1917. This heavy
production was made by this firm
in response to request from. the
government to produce all we pos
lsibly could. Most of these fish
were produced by seines. We con-
tend that seines of any description
are the most efficient nets that can
be used in any of the salt waters
of Florida. For this reason over
a million pounds of jacks, pike or
snook and large reddish have been
caught by these seines which could
not have been caught by gill nets.
These fish are the natural enemies
of all small fish and a terror to
gill METERS. | think | am conser-
vative in saying that these fish
would destroy several million
pounds of small fish annually.
These nets have caught over one
hundred thousand pounds of large
black drum, which fish is very de-
structive to the oyster industry.
In addition to this these seines
have captured at least ten thous-
and sharks, which are a great men,
ace to fishing in general. The
mesh of these seines are in accord
ance with the laws of Florida ex-
cept the bunt and pocket which
very few people understand No
one could be called a seine with
out having bunt and pocket. The
bunt and pocket is of a heavier
Irvine and smaller mesh in order
to protect the fish after they have
been caught. AS for purse seines
they use smaller mesh, not to
catch little fish, but to protect the
fish after they circle them and
make their purse, from shark and
other fish and this kind. All
purse METERS see their fish before
their purse is made. In fact,
what few fish are destroyed by
any seine is overcome in thous-
and different ways for the benefit
of the industry. From a fisher
mans point of view who has had
thirty-six years experience in ev-
cry branch of the fish industry in
Florida.

portant future street now known as

No Reasons for Wire Control

GFrom Pittsburgh Gazette-Timesl
Every days delay by the Senate
in acting on the resolution authoriz-
ing President Wilson TO seize the
telegraph and telephone systems of
the country confirms public opinion
against the proposition. The extra
ordinary demand of the president
and discussion of it, in and out of
Congress, should have developed
some evidence of necessity for such
a radical course. But none has been
advanced, palpably because none ex-
lists. The case rests now where 1t
did after President Wilson had writ
ten his request. He wants the reso-
luton adopted. because he wants it.
And that Is no reason at all worthy
of consideration by Congress.
Wire service goes on as 1t did be-
fore, with a degree of satisfaction
to the public equal to anything we
have ever experienced with a public
utility. No atom of testimony has
been forthcoming tending to support
the intimation that security of mill
tary secrets has been or Is endan-
gered by continued private manage
ment of the country's systems of
wire communication: Nor has any
one Ventured the suggestion that
improvement of service is possible
through bureaucratic control of tele-
graphs and telephones. A Senate
committee has held a secret session
to take testimony. Since the comz
mittee chairman has made an apollo
getic statement to the effect that 1t
was not intended that newspaper
men should be excluded from its
meeting, it is to be assumed the re-
Il 90 rIaf n
there includes everything relevant
to the issue. And that was nothing,
beyond the statement of the presi-
dent of the Western Union Tele-
graph Company that he did not
think there was necessity for the
government to take over the tele-
graph wires. but that he would not
oppose it unless the design was to
unionize the employees.

crease IN advertising there shows a
greater depreciation than in South
and Central America. In the United
States itself there is not a paper
which has not suffered a loss in it's
advertising lines, and that despite
the fact that the last year showed

Evidently, despite the handicap of
war, German manufacturers are not
only looking forward to the resump-
ton of commercial activity when
peace is declared, but are now ac-
tually engaged in building a foun-
dation for future business.
Apparently many of our own mer-
chants have overlooked the real sig
niftcance of publicity. A man who
does not give the matter serious at
tention is liable to think of adver-
tising only as a means of selling
goods. He does not realize that his
advertisement is not merely pur-

chasing an intangible something

THE NATIONS DEAD
BY BRIGGS

Where lie the dead, Sentry?
They lie yonder on the hill;
The stars look down upon their rest,
The night wind groweth chill
But the flag that led them proudly
waves,
For brave men follow still.
How fell the dead, Sentry?
They fell fighting for the right;
They followed at the heels of Death,
Nor looked to right nor left;
And their country's grateful memory
Shall keep their honor bright.
How lie the dead, Sentry?
The dead lie very still;
The moon shines soft and tender
Ger the graves upon the hill,
While lone mothers weep in silence,
As mothers always will.
How sleep the dead, Sentry?
The dead sleep very sound;
The graves upheaved on yonder hill
Have made it hallowed ground.
And on the lips of unborn time
The heroes names shall sound.

STOP DRAFTING MINERS

One would suppose it needed no
argument to show the folly of draft
ing men from the pennsylvania coal
mines. They are already doing the
most essential of war work and they
cannot be replaced from any existing
source of labor supply. Yet the
Miners Bank, of Wilkes-B Barre re-
ports that 1000 miners have recent
ly been taken from the anthracite
region and that cit is probable that
80 or 35 per cent. of the men have
been taken from the Wyoming VAL
ley"
What kind of efficiency is this? Is
that a wise foundation for 'conscrv-
ing" fuel? 1t ought not to take
many minutes to stop it-therc is
power to do so in the executive au-
thority-if it is still going on. To
continue it will spell disaster.

S Germany stealing our markets

rs Germany stealing our markets
while we sleep? The question
may seem absurd. With her in
dustries paralyzed by war and cut
off from the outside world by an
impenetrable wall, of steel, how
could German products make any
headway in foreign markets? The
answer is to be found in two very
significant paragraphs from German
papers which were recently re-pub-
lished in Printers Ink"
One of these, from the Berlin
Tageblatt of April 26, reads as fol-
lows:
IF the despised Yankee nation
think they are going to win the war
and force Germans out of foreign
markets there is nothing to indicate
this sentiment in their local and for
eign advertising. Many of their
advertising agencies have closed
their doors through lack of patron
age. Their much talked of captains
of industry have cancelled advertis-
ing contracts everywhere. Germany
and German merchants have in
creased their advertising space in
neutral markets and at home. 1t
pays to advertise in war as well as
in peace. The far-seeing merchant
never stops advertising"
The other item from the Berlin
Lokal Anzeiger of April 20, reads:
Nothing is more acceptable to
the German nation than to note the
fact that the North Americans have
| abandoned advertising their goods

kets. In the tin-American pub.

her BOY"

My lad was such a home boy; every
night
He'd curl up in that big, brown,
shabby chair,
And dream of knights and swords
and maidens fair;
When the war came, he would liken
EACH grim fight
With those his dear Round Table"
waged for right;
And dreadful things his young
heart couldn't bear,
That happened babes and mothers
over there"
Fired his gray eyes with Galahad' S
pure light.
OF course he went to rescue in their
need
Those helpless mothers and their
little ones;

To follow him, so proud 1 was to

Because he loved his home with
such romance,
He gave his life to save the homes
