GREEN CORN LOVE.

just let me ask you, Bill,
do you believe q man ever
fell In love with . girl while
she was eating corn off tho
cob? Neither do I.
NJ. l.. G.
Bill prefers to pass the buck on
this momentous question and pu.
1t up to the jolly, mirth-loving
fans Of II and s for answer. OF
course love is queer sort of
thing. The chances are that IL a
fellow thinks we'll of a girl her
efforts on an. ear of green corn
wouldn't phase him.
1t Is to be feared that this
question will deter many a girl
from tackling the succulent sugar
corn In the presence of the man
she's set for. But IL shouldn't.
A dainty pair OF red lips closing
over a Juicy ear of corn look just
as good as elsewhere.
But we must have the question
settled. SO HOW DO YOU
yOTEf WHAT DO YOU THINK
ABOUT 1T!

BAR ASSOCIATION
ADJOURNS WITHOUT
FORMING CORPORATION

Jacksonville, March 30-Efforts
to incorporate the Florida Bar AS
sociation, were abandoned at today's
concluding sessions of the barris-
tiers annual convention and instead
given to proposed legislative action
to regulate the practice and disbar-
ment of attorneys in the state. The
proposed legislation would eliminate
the so called "shyster" lawyer by
creation of state governing board
to be appointed by the governor
The latter plan was adopted after
the plan to incorporate the associa-
ton
A committee of three was named
to place the proposed action before
the coming session of the legisla-
ture. In addition, one lawyer from
each judicial district will also se.,ye
on the committee.
At the afternoons session Judge
c. O. Andrews of Orlando was elect
ed president. Herman Ulmer of
Jacksonville was named secretary,
and Phil May of Jacksonville, treas
urer Vice presidents from each of
the sixteen judicial sections were
selected.
The lawyers went on record as
favoring increased salaries for cir
cult court judges, and appointed a
committee of three to bring the mat
ter to the attention of the legisla-
ture.

since the establishment of the egg

that the state of New Jersey last
