WE ARE GETTING BETTER

:. Florida and the world are getting
!, better everywhere except mere
where we are-so say the cranks.
! It is getting better here, only we
won't notice it-we're too close to see
t.
Go back to the little town with
which you were familiar, say fifteen
! years ago-most any town-Tampa
Lakeland, Barlow, Arcadia, Fort My
ers or any other town in south Flor
! ida
| 1t has a new tapestry brick station,
the streets are well paved, mo spit
ting" signs are conspicuously display
ed, bubbler fountains on the public
square, there is new public library,
several good buildings have been
erected along the main street, nearly
all the old store fronts have been re-
placed with broad expanse of plate
glass, and in all the show windows

displays of goods, indicating that the
towns people are buying more and
better of all the useful things of life.
Yet ask any native who hasn't been
out of town within fifteen years and
he will tell you that it is getting
worse-much worse.
The improvements in the town
have come so gradually that the in
habitants have not noticed them.
And this is about the way with
the world in general.
We of this world do not improve
ourselves and our surroundings at
one fell swoop.
Usually man first improves the
food that he eats, then his clothing.
then the furnishings of his home,
and then the house.
With a better house he demands
paved streets, water works, sewer
system, electric lights.
The merchant is quick to see that
there is a demand for better goods
and carries better stock of goods.
The exhibition of this stock has
an educational effect in creating a
desire and raising the purchasing
standard of the whole community.
With better individual life the
spirit finally extends to better adj
ministration of their public affairs,
and on down to the fundamental of
community economics.
We may not be quite to this last
state yet, but we are on our way.
The world is getting better
1t cannot be conceived that our
present attempt at civilization will
be failure-for transportation, com
munication and extension of intelli.
gence through the printing press are
giving the world the faculty by which
the people of one part can observe
and profit by the failure and success.

for improvement each to their own

Death is nothing more nor less than
slipping back into your own sub-con-

greater and finer and more
active-more useful, too, and
with grander powers - than
we ever had in our limited imperfect
bodies. Life lis nothing but an cpl

When the building and "fxing-
up" season for Langdon closes at the
setting in of next winter the list
will prove be one of the longest and
count up into more dollars than it
has done in any year of L%angdon's
history for the past two decades.
The reason is one that is generally
conceded to be traceable to one
thing, in the main, and that is, the
point that~our city reached in estab-
fishing a permanency as a home
building town when the authorities
decided that the time had come to
put in a system of waterworks and
sewerage. There is no need now to
hide the fact that when the present
administration first took the initia-
tive in the matter there was a good
deal of adverse sentiment prevalent
among property owners who thought
the time should be more of watch
full waiting than for heavy NUM-
cipal expenditure for public impro-
vements. But the past six months
has proven the foresight and good
judgment of the authorities. This
spring Langdon is making a better
and bigger start in the building line
than in any n year since the town
started, and there is but one cause
and foundation for this change of
front. Lower rates of insurance,
more h%ealthful sanitary conditions
and added security to property have
been assured to all who have looked
at Langdon from the point of either
a business investment or the location
of a home. The steady onward pro.
gress that Langdon may safely look
fer within the next decade will at
least double it's present population
and add largely to it's aggregate
wealth. The turning point in the
road was reached when Langdon made
up it's mind that if it was to 90
ahead and no longer stand still it
must right then put in a system of
waterworks and sewerage, Even the
opposition today see the wisdom of
the step first taken a little over
twelve months ago
