The citrus fruit growers of i'lori-
da are figuring OH shipping their
products north by water transport
tation instead Of by rail freight. The
freight charges Of the railroads have
grown in such unreasonable figures
that there's little profit left for the
growers, and naturally they are re-
bcllinS against such high freight
rates. This merely Emphasizes Il
law which we have in 10 wise
learned. No one can live unto him
self, neither can any business be
conducted successfully in selfish
way. Ii is not competition and
scliiShncSs that business needs. Ii
is the spirit Of mutual concern and
consideration. No one business

April in History.

THE thirty days of April have been
important and momentous ones in
Americas history. In distinction to
the calm and springlike nature Of the
month whose name probably comes
from the latin verb "Aperire," mean
ing to open, April has been connect
ed with some Of the most eventful
happenings Of American history, and
marks the beginning of all her most
| important wars.
The first Congress Of the United
States under the Federal Constitution
met on the 1st of April. 1889. and
George Washington was inaugurated
the first President on April 80 Of the
same year.
The battle of Lexington. the first
blood shed in the revolutionary war
was fought on April 10, 1775. The
civil war began with the firing upon
Fort Sumter April IL, 1861. War was
declared upon Spain in April, 1898,
and the last great war was entered
by the United States on April 6, 1917,
when Congress declared war On Ger
many.
But if April is fertile in producing
wars, she is no less active in bring
ing them to close. On April 10,
1893. eight years to a day after the
battle Of Lexington. Gen. George
washington. commander-in-ch chief Of
the Army, proclaimed the war with
England at an end and discharged the
Army. The civil war ended when Lee
surrendered to Grant at Appomattox
Court House. Va. on April 9, 1865.
The Spanish American war ended with
the signing of the peace protocol by
both powers April 13. 1899.
april ~ mas been an ominous and
memorable day in American history.
Besides being the date on which the
revolutionary war began. it marks the
date OF the first actual blood shed
in the civil war, when Massachusetts,
troops en- route to Washington were
hred on In Baltimore and number
of men killed. On that date also
Lincoln proclaimed a blockade of all
J the southern ports. and on this same
April 19. thirty-seven years later,
Congress resolved that Cuba must be
free and Independent, an act which
foreshadowed the actual declaration
Of war with Spain a few days later.
Lincoln was assassinated on April
IA, 1865. The San Francisco earth
quake was on April IS. 1906, and the
Titanic sank with 800 souls aboard
on April Is. 1912.
That April has been an important
month in the history Of the United
States is shown by the following
