FLORIDA
What She Was. What She Is, and
What She Can Be Made

The following prose-poem, coming
from the pen of one OF Florida's pio-
neer settlers, is true in every respect
and founded on facts.
The author, "Uncle Ben" Bradley, of
Barlow, moved to this state in 1S45
when it was territory, and settled in
what is now Marion county, four miles
southeast of Ocala. Bradley Pond,
beautiful little body Of water at that
place, beare the family name.
He assisted in civilizing and har-
monizing the Indians, when the Red
Man dominated Florida and stood
monarch of all heb surveyed" and
also fought through the Civil war.

The hardened head, with torpid
brain, knows not what this land con-
tains. But active brains, experience
and skill show what man can do if he
will. The land that's now a desert
waste can be made to suit the grand

world show two blades Of grass where
but one did grow. Florida, the lovely
land of flowers, of orange groves and
magnolia bowers, with her gentle
breeze and sulphur streams, that af-
ford health and wealth a plenty, it
seems. Come away from your cold
and freezing cline, come at once, for
you are losing time. While Florida is
on citrus boom, put your shoulder to

like nuggets of gold in the thick foil

are the beautiful lakes, where you can
sit on the borders and be famed by
the gentle breeze that watts itself
through the resinous pines over the
placid bosom of those beautiful sheets

sadness or gloom that may hover over
or around you, smooth every furrow
of care from your brow, and make you
realize the fact that in Florida there
is something worth living for. What

SAILOR WHO FOUGHT
 IN CIVIL WAR OFFERS
 TO AID RECRUITING
Veteran Seaman Who Was at the Cap- ture of Mobile Tells of Service
 AflOat in the Sixties

John Riley, 76 years of age, ap- peared at the local recruiting station yesterday and offered to assist in sa- curing recruits for this branch of the service.
 q served on the Hartford during the Civil war under Farragutt," said MT. Riley, "and was with Admiral Jewett when he captured Mobile The navy is a great life for boys and it has many advantages that it didn't have then. Back in those days we had nothing to eat but salt horse and have the best and most nourishing food possible.
 There were no bands. laundries, libraries or moving pictures on board the ships then as there is now, and we did not have as warm clothing as the men of today get. I have stood watch with little more than summer clothing on when I was so cold I could hardly move, and in those days we had wood- en ships and iron men, while it is very different now. A man had to have a wonderful constitution to stand the life, but every comfort is given the navy men now.
 'I liked Alabama so well that I set tied here after the war, and have spent the greater part of my life since in this state 'T expect to get out ard many advantages offered in the navy and if possible do my bit in building up our great navy"
 The men on recruiting duty here greatly enjoyed the visit of MT. Riley and Lieutenant Commander J. F. Mere dith, in charge of the station, was much impressed with this ex-navy man. They feel confident that the number of recruits will be largely ir- creased if this gray-haired man. who served in this branch of the service more than 50 years ago, assists then as he has promised

 gress, Which Opens
 Tomorrow

The off clal congress special train is to arrive here at 7:30 o'clock from Nashville, Tenn.

The exhibits for the congress have already arrived In fact, Bessemer is simply awaiting the arrival of the officials for the opening proper. The re- ception committee, the committee or homes and the general arrangement com mttee, which were subdivisions of the local committee, held their last meeting last night and the entire city popula- tion of colored people are expected at the Louisville and Nashville station to- morrow morning to give their personal welcome to the arriving workers.

Magwood, representing the Birmingham end of the district commit tee, stated that they had been advised by the Alabama forces that the state would send an overflow attendance. Every section of Alabama, even the re- mote rural districts, has shown unusual enthusiasm in the 1919 session. The Rev. Henry A. Boyd, the secretary of the nov ement, was down in Birmingham only last week and put the finishing touches, so to speak, on the work.
