NOT GUILTY, NY LORD.

Says Hon. W. A. McRae, Florida's
commissioner Of agriculture.
enter the plea Of mot guilty for
Florida in the charge that the South
is threatened with famine and plague.
Florida has never known q bread
line or starving period. She
knows meme now.
If there really is an unusual number
Of cases Of pellagra in some OF the
Southern states it is to be deplored,
but states that do not have it should
not be loosely classed with those that
have it. If the theory of the cause
of peilagra is correct-that it is in
cuced by the persistent use OF an
unbalanced diet-then there is least
excuse for it existing in Florida OF any
state in the union. There is no county
Of Florida that cannot produce green
vegetables during each of the four
seasons Of the year, and fresh fruits
can be secured. TO say nothing OF

and Exposition to be held in Taas-
sonviiie the week of November 12 to

the State Fair Association l. now
moving at full speed in preparation
Tor the biggest and best fair on record
This years fair is to take nlaca
one week earlier than usual and the
outlook for the most successful week
IN the associations history IS de-
clared to be bright.
Reduced round trip rates over all
railroad and steamship lines lead
ing to Florida's metropolis have been
assured, efforts will be exerted. il has
become known, for even more at
tractive rates, both for Florfdians
and the Alabaman's than were in ef-
feet last year.
Every department of the fair will
be larger than ever, Generai Manager
Hanafourde has announced. In the
amusement line there will be plenty
for the old and the young. The as

The SOUTH NEEDS NO REPue-
LIcAN NURSING

~
President Hardings attempt TO be
wet nurse for the south has developed
INTO boomerang. which is shatter-
ing political plans designed to win
the everlasting appreciation Of this
section.
Ii no uncertain language the south
ern states have repudiated his CON
clusion that pellagra and famine are
knocking at the door of the cotton
belt.
The south has not fallen for this
smooth scheme to place it under OBJ
legations to the administration and the
republican party.
Taking advantage Of a nationwide
reaction from war. the intensity OF
which is directly attributable to the
Wiggling and webbing in his policies.
President Harding chose what he com
sldered psychological moment to
ring the nose OF the solid south.
But the south refused to be ringed.
However, this grave injustice is a
severe blow at this section in an eco
nonlic sense. 4 political trick has
cost the south much Of the prosperity
which it drew from other sections
Naturally other parts Of the country
viii now be suspicious OF southern
investments and the stability OF the
section.
Without reservations. Florida brands
as false the scare hurled upon the
nation by Mr. Harding. 1t would not
have aroused the state so much. per
haDs, if the republican organ in the
state had not played the statement
on the boards
From all parts of the state the Me-
trop0lis received assurances Of pros
perity. General disapproval of the
presidents statements was expressed
Exaggerated to the last degree was
a phraze appearing in several of the
wire communications.
The south has seen better times
and worse timesi but there is no
danger Of pellagra epidemic. food is
plentiful and. compared to the other
sections, the territory south of the
Mason Dixon line is in better condi-
ton than the territories already in
the republican grip.-Jacksonville

Der with the club on each night
Mr.. Mutch contributing many and
varied selections. Among the big
ger numbers which Mr.. Mutch
gave that were acclaimed by the
audience were the Prologue from
Paglliacci, and an aria from Mas
senet. His Where Ere You Walk
Absence, Invictus, For You Alone
and an Irish love song, rendered
with fine attention to diction
phrasing, expression and flawless
technique, were delight to the
trained musical ear, and those who
laid no claim to personal musician
ship were made to realize that
they were being given an oppor-
tunity to hear the best in vocal in
depreciation.
Program Well Balanced.
Mr.. Mutch was gracious with
his encores. and he was most ca
pably assisted at the piano in all
his numbers by John Stark Evans
AS to the Apollo club, the IN.
crease in the tenor section was
very noticeable, the voices being
much sweeter and more musical in
effect than heretofore. The cres-
cendoes and gradual decreases to
pianissimo showed the most care
full training and were details of
artistic perfection.
The program was finely hal
anced, with songs ranging from
those of dramatic caliber to ones
of more delicate import and in
souciant bouyancy.
Too much cannot be said of Miss
Ruth Bedford, the clubs regular
accompanist, who lent piano sun
port that was all that it should
be.
DR.. T. S. Roberts, organist, was
another individual who contribut-
ed much to the success of the two
programs, his work at the organ
in The Lost Chord, being especial
ly effective and interesting. Ad-
ditional assistants were Irwin A.
Wroten, G. J. Kurth, w. H. Mills,
Avery Hicks, Miller Bevier and
H. S. Swart, all members of the
Salem Symphony orchestra.
Merits Are Obvious.
After all, definitions are diff
cult, but whether or not one is
able to describe music in any set
way, the merits of the Apollo
club are obvious, and the knowl-
edge is present, that under its
present leadership it is capable of
doing big and splendid things.
The club may achieve it's dream
of a seventy-five member institu-
tion, but that, is of secondary i'm
portance to the public, for as long
as the club adheres to its present
high standard, the public will not
be particularly concerned about
size, being content with quality.
Two more programs are an
nounced, one for February 21-22,
and another for May 1917, Ger
trude Huntley Green, pianist;
Gideon Hicks, basso, and Emma
Swanson Yer Haar, contralto, all
eminent concert artists, are sched
uled to assist.
