LAKE WEIR

Lake Weir, May 1S.-Rev J. c.
Boatwright of Anthony will hold serv-
ices at the Baptist church Saturday
night, Sunday morning and Sunday
night. All are invited to come.
Robert L. Fosnot has bought, torn
down and moved by truck the old
Lake Weir Baptist church, which has
stood idle for the past twenty years
or practically since the big freeze of
'95, when the members of that church
were scattered to the four winds of
the globe. Everybody on the lake has
soft spot in their hearts for dear
old Bob, who is always ready with his
strong right arm to defend the weak,
be it a woman, child or a bedraggled
kitten in need of help and we feel
there is public sentiment among the
people of the lake that as the old
church was abandoned as a place of
worship, there is no one we would
rather see sheltered by its hallowed
walls than Bob and his bonny wife
and child. May they live long and
enjoy the substantial home he will
build from the old church on the crest
of the hill at Eastlake, overlooking
the limpid waters of the most beauti-
full lake in Florida.
The public school question has not
been settled yet as to where they will
locate the building some raising the
question of what shall the public do
without school house for suppers,
plays, picture shows ,etc. Why not
keep the school houses at each place
for town halls. They can be purchas-
ed and moved further up town, where
they would be conspicuous as public
buildings and ornaments to the town.
Several ladies kindly furnished din
, ner for the men who cleaned up the
cemetery last week. If it had been
known at Lake Weir and Eastlake the
people would have gladly helped as
some of their loved ones and friends
are esting there. The cemetery needs
a well with a good pump that there
may be plenty of water for flowers
and grass that should be planted
there to beautify the resting place OF
the dead.
/ The washed sand company has 6
full force of men working under the
direction of Mr.. B. Baker, assisted by
Mr.. Downing and Arthur Scott Jr.
as engineers. They are loading from
seven to ten cars a day and sending
them to all points in Florida.

The arrest of ex-Sergeant Breadvad
in Jacksonville, at the orders of Gov.
Hardee, on charge of being an accom-
plice in the killing of Fred Pitt in
Punta Gorda some weeks ago, was
the correct procedure, and if Bread
vad has been discharged from the
army we fail to see why the federal
government has anything more to do
with his case, unless it be to secure
counsel for him. From all the EVIL
dence we have seen, he was acting
under orders of his superior officer
and therefore should be held guiltless
We think he should be given q
change of venire, as judging from
what some of the DeSoto papers say
feeling runs high against him in that
county.

Mothers Day---The GrOlDth
of q Beautiful Idea


About seventeen years ago former Senator ELMER j.
BURKETT of Nebraska, introduced joint resolution to
designate day for recognition of American mothers The
idea beautiful and proper but many Of the elder states
men of the Senate ridcued the proposition suggesting
Fathers Day. "Grandmother's Day, Aunts Day."
etc. and that far the idea then got The eoquence
Of the young Nebraska Senator in his tribute to American
mothers, affected not the rulers of the upper
house of Congress.
Such resolution went through years later when in
troduced by Congressman, now Senator HEFLIN. And
Sunday the day generally observed through the country
President HARDING leading by wearing white carnaon
lin memory of his mother. Motherhood euogzed
from thousands Of pulpts and red and white carnations
were in evidence everywhere
The observance Of the day will grow the years pass
because the greatest asset of country is its pure
hood the sweetest of all sentiments that of mother The
war gave impetus to- the movement the facts gathered
in that tantc struggle showing that other word in all
languages and among all nationaties moved wounded
and dying soldiers as MOTHER" We well pause

TT is announced that soon Ameri-
can merchant airplanes will bomb
: former German battleships. This
idea of dropping dynamite on the
ships of conquered nation may not
appeal to President Harding. If the
Germans had taken battleships of
ours and amused themselves by
making targets of them we should
not think highly of the performance.
Other targets would do just as
well. And in these days Of economy
there must be something worth sal
vaging in the material that makes
up a battleship. The navy's engin-
GERS know we'll what bomb will do
to steel and iron.
When war is over it is not de-
sirable needlessly to offend con-
quered people. Every American
knows how this country would feel,
or how the French or any other
nation would feel, if Germany had
won the war and it were announced
that captured ships of France or
America were to be used as targets
for dynamite bombs from airships.
A certain sentiment attaches to bat
tleships on which men have fought
for their country.
Everybody remembers Oliver Wen

a warship that had outlived its use

And give her to the god Of storms,

perpetuation of human slavery-the
greatest moral wrong of which hu-
man nature is capable.
Secession could not be justified in
1861 upon any acceptable principle,
because no acceptable principle can
be based upon a greater moral
wrong.
Moreover, the Southern States en-
tered the Union by consent and not
by force. They helped create the
Union and for most of it's then ex-
istence they dominated it. They
were never betrayed, exploited and
ruined by the Union. They were
flesh of our flesh, bone of our bone
just stubborn brothers hugging a de-
fusion that slavery was necessary
to their prosperity. 1t was more
harmful morally and materially to
them than to the North. They know
it now.

LLOYD GEORGE took
advantage Of the letter of thu

advantage of the letter of the
- six English Episcopalian' Bish-
ops, which prayed the government
to stop its numbering and arsons IN
Ireland, to do little propaganda
work for the benefit of American
public opinion.
In his reply he said that the Eng
lish position toward Ireland was
exactly the position of the North
toward the South when the Southern
States proposed to secede.
1t ought not to be necessary to
discuss this attempt at historical
comparison with boy or girl who
has read American history written
by American historians for the pub
lie schools.
1t would be enough to call atten-
ton to the fact that the real historic
comparison is between the American
revolution and the Irish revolution
now in progress.
Then America was part of the en-
pire as is Ireland today. Then all
the talk of the strategic position of
America to the British empire was
INDUCED in by British politicians
as it is INDUCED in now concerning
Ireland-with this difference only
that when WE ceased to talk about
Home Rule and told Great Britain
that we were going to be free of
her, FOREVER we did not offer her
ANY guarantees whatever OF
strategic safety if we became indie
pendent.
The Irish do offer Great Britain
guarantees that Ireland will not be
used as base for hostile operations
against England.
If Lloyd George would read our
American Declaration of Independ-
ence he would appreciate how silly
it is to attempt to convince the
American people that the cause of
Ireland is like the cause of secession.
Secession meant not the promotion
of liberty, but the destruction Of the
most hopeful experiment in liberty
anywhere-the American Union. 1t
meant the perpetuation of the worst
conceivable travesty on liberty-the

Is it safer for q boy driving with q girl

sides was committed.
OF course no American patriot
would for one fleeting second COM
pare anything European to one of
our glorious American ships. But
if, by chance, the English had cap
tured Old Ironsides, had taken her to
England, and sent young sailors to
fire shells into her and sink her, we
should have said the English lacked
taste.
We, over here, are so "highly re-
fined, cultured, tactful, etc." that
someone ought to suggest the impro-
priety of using the ships of con-
quered enemy for targets. If the
matter were called to President
Harding's attention he probably
would attend to it,
War, no matter who wins, leaves
an ugly wound and makes 1T hard
for the world to get back to business
and resume the onward march.
Some of those that never were
heard of before the war, and never
will be heard of again, would like to
keep the wound open and amuse
themselves with it. But President
Harding is not that sort. He will
probably tell the gentlemen of the
navy that they can select quite well
target that does not represent the
feelings of any nation, and practice
on that. AS it happens, the plan to
use German battleships for targets
was decided upon, and announced,
before Mr.. Harding's Administration
came into power.
