For the Good of
 the Community

r AST fall there was little difficulty in A- arriving at tripartite agreement between the street railway, the employees and the city in the matter of carfare.
 Utility and employees accepted some thing less than each had set mark at and the city, with the consent of citizens ac- cepted an increase in carfare.
 There was no strike, no application to courts, no loss of time, no public incon- venience, no physical outbreak, TO men, tai upheaval
 When the development of the Warrior was first broached several years ago, 9 rumble of opposition came from the rail- roads. One line, through it's agent gave open expression to jealous attitude. In the early days of the railroad administra- tion old-school railroaders behind the scenes injected an intellectual spoke or so.
 Today the Warrior has everything for which it asked and the railroad man who raised his voice in protest would be laugh ed out of court.
 Last autumn there was a nationwide steel strike In this state, there was no semblance of substantial grievance and men speak a common tongue, the strike was barely rifle; iron and steel manu- facture increased during it's nominal en- durance.
 Prior to 1907, when the U. s. Steel se- cured control of the Tennessee company, this district was tied up as tight as the stuff inside base ball at every turn of the half year pending making of the yearly wage agreement.
 When strike followed failure at agree ment, there was armed conflict ambush ing, assassination.
 Governors had to come here with state troops and cannon and patrol the district lest it be rendered asunder by the con- flcting passions of men.
 The fall of 1919 was different because men had learned to distinguish between shadow and substance; because intelli- gence, in one side, had anticipated grievances by establishing that which eliminated grievances, and intelligence, on the OLnor SlQo, SonSou IIlc IDLY Ol wrecking that which had accorded them voluntarily more than the violent strife of many decades had or could have ac- quired for them.
 In 1914 the city of Birmingham failed to make contract for by-product gas, whose terms would have been more lib eral than can possibly be made now owing to cost prices in it's manufacture, cost of laying pipe lines and other costs, that are twice now what they were then.
 But city and utility concern were at arms length in 1914 and citizens had habit of belligerency towards utilities. Distrust and suspicion, children of igno- rance, stood in the path of each.
 Now, there is no difficulty attending an arrangement for by-product gas The city, the people and the utilities have better acquaintance. That is all.
 Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.'

things.
The suggestions for stopping it take

The best advice given to the people
of Florida by the press at this time is
to plant trees. There is one thing
that can not be over done. Millions
of trees could be planted and grown to
advantage-trees for windbreaks. for
shade, for ornament, for timber, for
protection Of the soil and. when every
thing else fails, for the mere sake Of
seeing them grow. The only thing
necessary to stipulate is that the trees
should be adapted to Florida condi-
tons and not Of species liable to be-
come breeding places for destructive
parasites.

INTIMATE D|sCOURSES


l was going through the park today,
and as one of my corns was hurting
a little, l sat down. An elderly woman
had just previously laid her coat and
purse on the other end of the seat,
and was standing a short distance
away talking about nothing with some
friends. She evidently and quite nat
urally had her eye on the purse, and
the minute l sat down on the far end
of the bench, l quite naturally
cast my eyes towards the
coat and purse. And the woman saw
me do this, and hurried over, with
much anxiety on her face. She seized
the purse, giving me sidewise glance
of suspicion.
Lady" spoke up, Il am just
about broke, but I would not steal
your purse.
We'll" she replied, you might not,
but you see l don't know you. You
are a perfect stranger to me-"
Now listen to me folks; all strang-
ers don't steal. Only small per cent
of them are outright thieves. But
some persons, are suspicious Of a
stranger, and that means they are
suspicious of hundred million peO-
pie, because nobody knows many
thousand. Always recollect that near
ly everybody else is just about sucf
a person as you are.
There is not such great big dif
ference in the different parts Of oul
United States. l have always had the
idea that people run in strains, some
thing like other animals, and that is
borne out by the fact that all of us
see persons here who remind us Of
others we know perhaps a thousand
miles away. One may travel cleal
across the continent and at the enc
of the journey may have feeling
that he has gone entirely out of the
country, when, really, he has Travelled
only beyond the zone of his acquaint
ances. And when he become'
acquainted he realizes that the mai
he meets is only a man; that thu
family next door is just about thu
same sort as the one next door ava!
back home. He is sure to find tina

gret and pride that the Fort Myers

fine newspaper property at Lakeland,

north to Harry L. Brown for a long
time the efficient editor of the st.
Augustine Recorl, one of the best
newspapers in Florida.
The Fort Myers Press regretst ex-
ceedingly to see Mr.. Hetherington,
for whom it entertains high regard
and much respect, retire from the
field of journalism. 1t has known him
to be not only fine type of man
every inch of him-but cracking
good" newspaper man. This news
paper is pleased, however that Mr..
Hetherington has turned over his fine
property to man of such sterling
qualities as Mr.. Brown.
Aside from being a capable news
paper man Of wide experience. Mr..
Brown, whose reputation as an editor
and newspaper manager is not bound
ed by state lines, is 100 per cent
useful citizen and prince of fell

Lakeland adds much to the strength

ternity.
The Fort Myers Press, the only
daily paper on the West Coast of

FEDERAL INSPECTION :. :,
\ =: or COMPANY K REPORTED

p: Captain D.. J. Moore, commanding
officer of company X, has received
the report Of the federal inspection
made by Lieutenant >, Colonel H. D.
Seton. Of the Fifty-first Infantry on
February &C. this year, just before
the company was finally mustered
In. !, The inspection included the gem
eral. fitness of the men with refer
ence to. former training, local attt-
tude toward the forming Of a COM
pany and many details which go to
make a. first class organization.
The report of the inspection shows
that at that time many things were
recommended to be remedied. Since
that time several changes have been
made and 1t 1s thought that an In
spection at the present time would
bring tar better report.
At the next ANNUAL Inspection a
check Will be made OH the things
which were proposed for change at
the last inspection to see II. all these
changes have been made.
