way may yet be found out OF the
financial plight 10 which the county
affairs have temporarily come largely
on account of the unexpected and
heavy drain of the expensive murder
trials in the May term of circuit
court. It's true the undetermined
financial burden of the November
term of Circuit Court stares in the
face, but part of that can we ward
ed off with the law allowing the
Sheriff to deduct off>taxes due from
Jurors warrants, though the court

make no suggest ton but sincerely
hopes that the Supervisors tn their
deliberations will get lead which
will prove the solution of the prob
lem at least for the balance of this
fiscal year,as it looks like some shift
should be made before the thing
drifts too far and the good credit
which the county has enjoyed for
long run of years, is caused to suf-
fer with deprecated value to war
rants, unpaid bills. etc.

There is a concrete evidence of ex-

is not SO where money was absorbed
for current expenses ahead of its

country and it will be memory to-
abide with you for years to come
wherever you may go to live, OF

this drive as on the one through

Der of places with cold fruit drinks

have ready as we roll intoN their

section of their county connected up
with it. the main arteries being
laced and cross-laced with roads in

many long stretches and then I'M

principal points being sixteen feet
wide. while the connecting or inter-
lacing roads are nine feet wide and

and eliminates the dust as well as
the bump, and jars.
Other places which we visited that
day which showed their hospitality
IN the few minutes allotted to their
towns by giving us the cold fruit

upon us were, Haines City. Lake

of these towns have such picturesque

More Than Ever

this month of June are we
holding to our standard of
loWer prices and still
lower prices. Qualities are
maintained, of course, yet
prices are lower than they
have been for some time.
Throughout the month
there will be special lots
of seasonable, desirable
merchandise at especially
low prices.
Every day the price of
every article in the Down
Stairs Store will be as low
as it is possible to make it
and still keep the quality
right.
There is never a time
when one cannot find
many things here at less
than regular prices. 1t is
impossible to advertise
them all. Unless one shops
elsewhere, par ing
quality for quality, one
does not always realize
the genuine money saving
on that which is bought in
the Down Stairs Store.
