cheaper bread. 1t is not within it's
power to give the cotton planter 80
cents pound for his product and at
the same time insure cheaper cotton
goods.
Nor is it within the power of Mr.
Harding or the men with whom he
will surround himself, to satisfy the
Irish who voted the Republican tic
ket, or the Germans who voted it,
or the Italians who voted it, or the
other racial elements who voted for
the Republican candidates, without
offending a vast number of straight
Americans who also voted for the
successful ticket.
Nor could Governor Cox have met
the responsibilities which the next
four years will impose upon the Pres
ident. He would have done all that
was humanity possible, no doubt to
solve the problems before the nation,
but if he tried and failed, and he
would have failed in all conceivable
probability. he and his party would
have gone out of power in 1924, not
to return perhaps, until a new gener-
alton of Americans has come into
their own.

therefore, it is probably just as well

is one thing he positively is not"

"There is probably not an individ-
ual in Franklin county opposed to a
greater growth of the business of the
county, yet number of these citizens
by their Indifference never do a
thing to help the county grow" says
the Apalachcola News. This is
true of every county and every com
munity- including Punta Gorda.
Here it is a noticeable fact that some
of the people who will benefit most
by the townt growth are the ones
who seem to do the least to boost
the town. They are good people,
but as the News says, they don't
realize that they are part and par
eel of the community and through
their efforts alone depends the sue
cess or failure of all business. Sue
cess is achieved through a combina-
ton of interests with every man
doing his part" When the people
of Punta Gorda wake up to a realiz-
alton that each one must play his or
her part, Punta Gorda will grow,
new people and new business will
mean a sure reward of
greater prosperity for every man and
woman in the community. Nature
has been kind to this section. 1t is
up to the people to make the most of
the advantages and blessings bestow-
ed.

FlOrida'S Outlook.

Now that the election is over and
the country more or less saved, it is
time to turn to the always interest.
ing topic of Floridas future.
Gleanings from the daily and week,
ly press reveal high degree of pros.
oerity in this state. While there is
some speculation, to be sure, as there
always will be in periods like the
present, there is a vast amount OF
constructive enterprise in evidence
Several new industries are being
projected. Paper making on more
than an experimental scale is being
prepared for. Plans are on foot to
develop large sugar plantations and
construct mills and refneries
Schemes for utilizing the waste prod
ucts of the citrus industry have pro-
crossed to the point of demonstrate
ed utility. New processes for pre-
venting the fermentation of Florida
syrup have been adopted, thus insur-
ing the stability of one of our most
profitable industries.
New land developments and drain
age projects are too numerous to ex-
cite comment. They are accepted as
matter of course, although they
mean an attack upon our swamp area
which will eventually reduce it to a
negligible quantity.
In every line of agriculture the
stale shows progress. More corn, po-
tatoes, peanuts, sugar cane, grass and
then ever in its history. More hogs,
cattle and poultry are raised. In fruit
production, this state is climbing to-
ward the top. Not only has it virtu-
ally captured the nations market for
oranges and grapefruits, but it has
made good progress in the production
of guavas, manages and especially
avocadoes.
All this is encouraging, not as a
final achievement, but as an indica-
ton of what can ultimately be accom-

progress. Only about ten per cent
CT its land is in cultivation. 1t has
openings for thousands of profitable
farms and groves, opportunities for
countless industries, chances for de-
which will quadruple it's
and its wealth and place
it in the very first rank of productive
That should be our goal Those
interested in Florida should never
rest satisfied with anything short of
the best. There is no physical rea-
son why our agricultural statistics
should not rank with those of Iowa
and Illinois. We have room for as
rich rural communities as those of
Kansas.
The Florida booster should pic
ture to himself the state as it would
look if our swamps were all drained
if our pine woods were all reduced
to cultivation, if comfortable farm
houses lined every mile of our high
ways, if all the resources of the state
were utilized for the comfort and
prosperity of the people. And with
that picture in mind, he should strive
until the reality is attained.-Lake-
and Telegram.

The Times-Union says the League
of Nations did it. The Tampa pa

The man or the woman who
thinks that any marked difference in

MANY STARS ON
COLONIAL BILL

1t il a real galaxy Of stars that are
to be seen on the Colonial program
for today and Saturday. Pauline
Frederick, Frank Mayo. J. Barney
Sherry and Kathryn Adams are the
people who appear in the two big
photoplays. while Jack Hoxie and
Ann Little in the sixth episode OF
Lightning Bryce" are at the top OF
serial performers.
A pair of social grafters appear in
Bonds of Love-" the Goldwyn pic
ture in which Miss Frederick Is the
star. Their aims are not novel, but
their means for obtaining them are
as vicious as they are singular.
The sister and brother of Daniei
Cabot's dead wife have been living
in his home since her death. In
fact. the woman has managed the
establishment and her brother has
been a handy, spongy sort OF in
dividual, whose presence helped to
pad out the emptiness Of the large
living room. Together the brother
and sister planned to keep their
brothers, in law from marrying again
and to ingratiate themselves in his
favor so that their lives might be
made soft and comfortable. To this
end, they decided to keep the mem
DRY of their sister ever green in the
thoughts of her husband. They con-
secrated her former room as mu-
scum. and spoke about her on every
possible occasion.
The plan worked for about year,
when a new governess was engaged
for the dead wifcs little boy. And
the spontaneous affection which
sprang up between the two con-
WINGED the husband that his little
boy needed a mother. Despite the
Vaccinations of the grating brother
and sister-in-law to blacken her
character. the little boy found a new
mother and the social grafters lost
their means of sustenance.
"A Little Brother of the Rich" is
the play in which the other three
stars mentioned above appear.
Frank Mayo plays the role OF Paul
Potter. a rich young man with a lib
eral education and family crest
embroidered in sickly yellow.
J. Barney Sherry has the part of a
theatrical producer who is breaking
his neck with whiskey and sleeping
his immortal soul in gin.
Beautiful Kathryn Adams plays
the part of Sylvia Castle. a country
girl. who wins 1aurels as an actress
and dazzles Broadway with her bril-
liancy.
Briefly, the story concerns a girl
who has loved a college man from
childhood. He marries on the wrong
foot and regrets it. When an acct
dent frees him so that he can marry
Sylvia he decides that she is not so
cially his equal and refuses. There
after begins series of thrilling incl
dents which will make "A Little
Brother of the Rich one of the most
satisfying productions on the screen.
The Colonial program is completed
by some unusually good Kilograms.

ADJUSTMENTS
SMILES AND TEARS
HAPPILY MINGLED

Smiles and tears were happily
mingled at the Augusta Opera house

fered by the Luttringer Stock Co. for
the end OF their Goth week in the city
proved to be play that works on
the emotions. There are tears-not

Old timer theatre -goers were in

was one Of the most successful pro-
auctions ever given on the American
stage. Its revival by the Luttringer
players proves that it has all the
elements that go for success today
just as it did two generations ago.
Ann Kingsley plays Mary Jane, the
title role. She proves herself most
comically lovable character and she
had her audience with her right from
the start. Her characterization Of
the little waif. forced to work for her
board in country hotel and later,
after good schooling, real lady. may
safely be called one of her biggest
hits. There are a number of big

play, when she finds that Bill had
kidnapped her when young to re-
venge himself on her mother whom
he had loved, she shows that forgive
ness can be granted even after a
great wrong has been done.
Just Mary Jane has not a dull
minute. 1t has comedy by the
bushel. ripping good story and sit
uations that bring one to his feet.
