A SUPERB PUBLICATION

One OF the finest publications that
have come under our observation is
the Florida Industrial Record. a new
and deserving candidate for public
favor issued from the job rooms Of the
popular Tampa Tribune.
Our good friend, Mr.. Robert w.
Bentley, is the editor and it fills us
with pride to know that he has not
forgotten his old home town and in the
fisrt issue gives conspicuous space to
finely written article by Mr.. Louis
H. Chazal, secretary of our Board CT
Trade
The object of the Record is to EN-
phasize the resources and call atten-
ton to the vast possibilities of our
state, which he believes are greater
than those of any of the states of this
uniCn.
Both from an artistic and literary
point of view the Record is a superb
publication and we hope will receive
the measure of success it so well
merits.

MAxIMlLLioN HARDEN WRITES
ABOUT WILSON

Mr.. Macmillan Harden, the one
man in Germany who commands the
respect of the world, writes about
Wilson as follows in special to the
New York World:
Immortality is as certain for Wood.
row Wilson's speeches as for the
meditations of the Roman Emperor
Marcus Aurelius, who also stopped
half way up to the heights"
So declares Macmillan Harden,
the famous editor of the Zukunft,
while fervently eulogizing President
Wilson en- the occasion of the first
meeting of the League of Nations.
Herr Harden, who is about the only
German in Germany whose faith in
Mr.. Wilson is mistaken, says too:
zone who sees this man, the only
man amid hail of arrows, learns
to doubt whether his work was as
bad as the chorus of hate and abuse
now proclaims. When and where did
high endeavor attain the place on the
first attempt? No saint, wise man
warrior or statesman ever did.
''Wilson not only spoke but he felt
and thought as before him never did
the head of great state. The poor
est and the highest hardened with
bated breath to his word which gave
to the war a content and a goal and
which. for an hour Of humanity, ap
peared to break down all class bar
riers.
Morally and miltarily he ended
the war. That Wilson existed and
that he aroused an echo which roar
ing cannon could not drown remains
the mase beautiful, the only great ex-
perience of the war.
"As the Roman Marcus Aurelius
stands at the exit of antiquity, so this
American stands on the threshold of
new world. He has painted it, out Of
his prophetic vision. Another will
build it.
1.-THE parchment of Versailles be-
gins to turn yellow. Only one con-
oueror's work will endure-Wilson's
thought.
