LET PAsco DO 1T
(Dade City Banner.)

The sensational and alarming news was brought
into the county commissioners meeting Monday;
that fernando and Hllsborough counties were
going to divide Pasco county between them; the
deep dark plot being in that way to force people
of state road five a straight line between
Brooksville and Tampa.
Poor, bleeding Pasco, rent asunder by its cruel
neighbors to the north and south. Up. men of
Pasco, your hands to your hip pockets and draw
our your bandanas and weep with us. Never has
such an outrage been proposed since the parti-
ton of Poland.
Really now, if there is any territory stealing let
Pasco county do it. What is the matter with our
taking the Sumter county shoestring that
stretches along our eastern border clear to Polk
county and the fernando panhandle that separ-
ates from Sister Sumter. We do not believe
either county appreciates its appendage, or APP
pendix, and would submit willingly to an opera
ton AS it is, these strips of practically nomans
land may remain undeveloped barriers shutting
us off from progressive Lake and Sumter. The
old codger who drew the county lines in this part
of Florida must have been full of strange drinks
at the time.
If fernando and Sumter do not take kindly to
this idea then, by heck, let us annex both of
them, and then we can redivide the big county
comprising what is Pasco, fernando and
Sumter) on range line is and 10 into Pasco and
Gulf counties with county seats at Dade City and
Elfers. Yes, sir If the map is to be changed let
Pasco do it. Possibly it would have to be sub
mitted to the people, but we know they will fall
over each other to get to the polls to approve
the Banners suggestion.

California, at such times, has never hesitated

THE CHILD PROBLEM

The sooner we rid ourselves of the soothing
idea that my child wouldn't do such a thing"
the sooner We shall have an improvement in what
we are calling moral conditions among our peo-
pie.
There is nothing commendable in such an idea
o begin with. In fact, it is an attitude rather
than the result of any mental process 1t is the
product of combination of egoiism and laziness;
reluctance TO face the facts because they are
likely to be unpleasant, and because the facts may
call for action.
The big fact is that all children arc human
beings and undcvelopcd humans at that When
We reflect that human beings themselves are I'M
developed souls, we may conclude that keeping
an eye on ones child is not necessarily showing
meanIy suspicious nature. There is such thing
as sublime faith,-a faith that can know TIE

This has certainly been true in several in

1t is unfortunate that the two bodies do not

the absence of such cooperation, the league would
do well to go ahead at the earliest possible mo-

1t is an organization of business and pro-
fessional men, who as individuals, believe in
their town and their community, and who are,
therefore, willing to support the organization
with their knowledge, their personal service,
and their money.
The sole excuse for existence lies in doing
the greatest good for the most people, in civic,
commercial, industrial production and transport

help the community whether it knows it or not;

During The past two or three days there has been
another epidemic of crime throughout the country;
all the hends have not yet started for Hades, but

who accepted lift from Georgia bank presi-
dent and later slew and then robbed his benefactor
will be made TO pay the full penalty. CandidIy
these instances are but demonstrations OF the made
quacy of cur present social and economic system;
the criminal side of human nature finds suitable
environment for deeds of violence that some day.
when we progress to the point of providing the
proper conditions, will not be possible. The gen
orally accepted view is that there must always be
evil and crime and wrong-doing Possibly so, but
why not put the good thought first and think in
terms of better things for the race This may be
where thinking makes things as they are.
