CHICAGO TRAVELLERS
WILL TOUR SOUTH IN
AUTOS THIS AUTUMN

That riding in steel Pullmans and
| lounging in observation cars Is not the
| last word in southern travel, is the
belief of more than 100 tourists who
will leave Chicago on October goth, for
Miami, Florida.
They will depend on motor cars for
their autumn tour de luxe over the
Dixie highway and through the pic
turesque south.
The party will be in charge of
Chicago tourist agency-T. & S. tours
which has chartered ten passenger
touring cars used during the past sum-
mer for trips through Yellowstone
Park. These big motor cars, which are
mounted on ga ton chassis and
equipped with Goodyear cord pneu-
matte truck tires for comfort, speed
and traction, are now en- route from
the nations most popular playground.
The Dixie-bound motorcade also will
include three seven passenger touring
cars. owned by the tourist agency. and
number Of motorists in their own au-
tomobiles.
Travelling by day in automobiles at
a leisurely pace and making side trips
to points of scenic and historic inter
est, the tourists will see the south to
| better advantage tnan Dy train.
The members of the big motor tour
ing party, in fact, agree with Henry
Van Dyke that "the object of the Jour
ney is not only to reach the goal, but
to find enjoyment on the way"
The tentative schedule for the 1900
mile trip from Chicago to Miami has
been so arranged that no days run will
cover more than 100 miles, and an al
lowance of twenty-five days for the
tour will permit stopovers and off-the-
route pilgrimages to places of interest,
including the Lincoln Farm and the
Mammoth Cave in Kentucky, the Her
mitage and Chickamauga battlefield In
Tennessee and Font Oglethorpe and
Andersonville prison in Georgia.
The itinerary for the tour leads
through Indianapolis, French Lick
Louisville, Nashville, Knoxville, Chat
tanooga, Macon. Valdosta, Madison
and Jacksonville to Miami, travelling
down the east coast through romantic
st. Augustine and the two most fam
GUS water places Of Ponce de Leon land
-Daytona and Palm Beach
After a short stop at Miami, tht
party will return to Daytona, ther
across the everglades to st. Peters.

held by the F,irestone Company on the
coast,
Mr.. Ffrestone was very emphatic IN
his expression of belief in the future
growth of business on the coast and
in the course of his talk to the man
ayers, brought out the fact that it Is
the intention of the Firestone company
TO establish closer relations with the
people of the Pacific coast. He wants
to know them better and wants them
to know his firm better. One of the
first steps towards this closer rela-
tionship has been the recent forma-
ton OF the coast district, established
to provide adequate distributing facil-
tiles here and to meet the growth of
the industry and the demand for the
new construction Firestone tire. The
new organization is headed by ]. D.
Hess, Jr., who viii spend the greater
part Of his time closely watching trade
conditions in coast branch territories.
81 believe the automobile industry
Is only in its infancy and that ship
ping by trucks will be the favorite
means Of Transportation in the very
near future" said Mr.. Firestone in one
Of his heart to heart talks with the
managers. TN fact can see nothing
but a very great furture for the auto
mobile and kindred industries especial
ly on the Pacific coast. One reason
why the Pacific coast will be benefited
is on account of its magnificent sys-
TEN Of highways and roads which is
bound to cause the automobile indus
try to flourish"
THE automobile has done almost as
much to develop the country as have
the railroads and If the industry con-
tinues to grow as 1t has in the past, the
result will be greater than can be
imagined at present.
'The rubber industry Is to be one Of
the largest in the United States in the
very near future" concluded Mr.. Fire
stone. "As most of the rubber plan
tations of the world are in the orient.
the logical course Of this commerce is
through Pacific ports. England con-
Germs buy through London markets;
but 1 believe in time nearly all Of II
will pass through western channels
The great tire makers idea is that
a mans best enjoyment is his business.
1t is through making the surroundings
and working conditions pleasant and
healthful at the Firestone factory that
they have brought about state Of en-
joyment in the work their employees do
Mr.. Firestone has labor plan which
works well. This is the stock plan;
80 per cent Of the employees are owners
of the company. In addition to this
the social life of the employees has been
provided for, by establishing a mag
nificent club house, and those who
wish, can readily acquire a home ac-
cording to their own ideas of design al
actual cost for the lot. The home is
financed for them by the company

with the famous redwood park of Cali

BASKETBALL YESTERDAY

The basketball game yesterday on
the local grounds resulted in a victory
for the Largo boys in score of II to
13. The game was a good one and
was the subject of much comment af-
ter it was over.
Our boys worked hard for a victory,
but were somewhat at disadvantage.
Many criticisms of the referee were
heard, and it was evident that this
young man, who halls from Clearwa-
ter, was not well enough versed in the
rules Of the game to hold the position
he held as referee.
No unpleasant features arose to
mar the game, and it was quite graf
flying to note the gentlemanly con-
duct of the players.
The Largo team had two Gainesville
boys on their lineup, and they all
played good bali. Our boys seemed,
however, to be outclassed in guard

AND PERHAPS IT RAINED

Primitive people have always pro-
pitiated their gods by gifts and hon
Ors and, logically enough, when gods
have been persistently unfavorable
and capricious primitive people have
shown displeasure by Withholding
gifts and even desecrating images of
the ill-behaved divinities. But when
we speak of "prinlitive people" and
their gods we are not given to con-
Meeting the terms with Christians,
however simple-minded they may be.
A curious instance, however, of just
"a primitive attitude toward an unruly
Deity is described in a report filed
in the Smithsonian institution at
Washington. 1t tells of an occurrence
in Arizona while under Spanish rule,
and is amusingly reminder of what
is perhaps the average attitude of
limICed but cocl1sure Man toward the
Almighty. 1t seems there had not
been rain for long time and things
were becoming SO desperate that it
was decided to bring the Supreme
Ruler to time. And to let Him know
that there was no foolishness in the
matter, the following set of Particles"
were formally adopted:

The Art of TaIkinu,

The art of talking is rare but II
one has the least spark of talent II
may be improved. Time, thought, and
constant practice are necessary to de-
velop any faculty. We cannot hope
to learn music, painting, or tennis
without practice, and so 1t Is with con-
versation. We canno expect to talk
well in society IL we are dull, silent,
taciturn at home. We must read the
best books to learn the fluent S of
language; we must learn to think and
to remember, to observe carefully
we must keep in touch with the events
of the day, not merely within a mar
row circle but in the wide world. Cen
eral knowledge is necessary. Books,
magazines and newspapers are within
the reach of every one. An ideal con-
versationalist is a conscientious lis
tener, the first to see merit, the last
to censure faults. A very earnest
talker is not always popular because
of heaviness; to be able to talk about
nothing In a way to make that airy
subject interesting is a talent. Small;
talk is valuable socially.

Latin Words in Use.

Many Latin words crept into our
language through Rome's military con-
quests. For instance, castra was the
Latin word for camp, becoming ches-
ter in English. So Colchester. Dor
chester, Winchester, and similar names
indicate English cities which were
once Roman camps. When the Pill
grims came to America, they gave to
many new settlements the names of
English towns which they still loved.
You will find other equally interesting
words which have come into English
directly from Latin. And even now
you may like to know that there is a
real, though long-drawn-out connection
between our mother tongue and the
Latin language of the old Romans
