The South Florida Fair

This bids fair to eclipse any
thing in the line that we have Civ
en- so far. Committees haye set
tied down to work with determi-
nation, and all the futterings of a
debutante at her coming out
party, is in the atmosphere. This
because much that is new, and
novel, and great, has been found
available and will be feature parts
of the program. Of course the
Gasparilla feature of former
years will be missing, but there is
the best reason for this, as most
of our "pirates have been on the
firing line and cannot possibly be
here for this event. However, il
will be made up in part by i'm
mensity of exhibits and novelty OF
features. At this writing it looks
like this will be the greatest of all

Social Courtesies Neglected

A few of our people need to be
reminded of two particulars in
which they are lacking in social
courtesies.
First, they neglect to report to
The Herald the names of their
out-of-town guests. This assured
ly is a courtesy which each citizen,
lady or gentleman, owes to his
visitors from abroad, and to neg
lect it is a real. slight.
Second, guests enjoying the de-
lightful functions given every
week in private homes, owe it to
their host and hostess to make a
brief report to The Herald of
each occasion. The guests should

select one of their number to
make such a report. This is a
real courtesy which surely is due
to those hospitable people who
provide such pleasant functions.
1t is impossible for The Herald
to know of all these things or
have sufficient knowledge of any
one of them to enable it to make
a fitting report. Besides, the pa
per's sole duty in these matters is
to publish the reports furnished
it.
Only city daily can afford to
keep a society editor regularly
employed. The Herald, you know
is only a one-horse village weekly
but some people seem to expect
as much of it as they do of the
Tampa Tribune or New York

Bear grass, one of the palmetto
family of plants, yields from the
long leaf a most excellent fibre

Agava Mexicana, or cutting

Saw palmetto grows in vast

has been used for making writing

The bark of the okra plant, a

an equally good fibre.
