Borland asserted that the ending Of

this was followed by the excessive
drinking. for which Mrs. Laws wrote
her regret in q letter addressed to
her sister in San Francisco and found
among her possessions after her
death. Then, in turn, according to
the Borland theory, came the homi-

OWN A HOME

Every man should own his home
if it be possible for him to do so. The
philosophy which tells man to drift
through the world with no home is
like ship that has arrived in the open
sea without rudder at the hazard
Of storm A man who owns his
home is like ship that has arrived
in port and is moored in safe har-
Dor. No man should be content to live
in house that is not his own, if he
can build one, than a bird should take
the risk of Matching in another birds
nest, and for my own part would say
to every man, buy a home if you can
and own it if you can If wind fall
has come to you buy home Do not
let any one tempt you to put all your
earnings back in the pool. Take out
enough to buy home and buy it.
Put the rest back if you will. gamble
on it if you must; but buy the home
first. Buy it, sell it not. Then the
roses that bloom there are yours; the
clematis and jasmine that climb upon
the porch belong to you. You have
planted them and seen them grow.
When you are at work upon them
you are not at work for others, #
there are children there are flowers
within the house and without. Buy
home.

EDISON ON RURAL LIFE

After his return from trip abroad
the most of which was made by auto
mobile just before the outbreak of
the world war, Mr. Thos Edison was
quoted to have said:
4 believe in rural life as the ba-
sis of human happiness
Edison stood awhile regaling him
self with the sight of some Of the
well kept farms which greet the tour
list in that part of the continent Then
he continued:
Every man ought to have an acre
of land, with three-quarters of it de-
voted to the intensive cultivation Of
garden truck That would provide
sufficient food and make the owner
independent.
THAT is my ideal OF civilization, I
would have people live on small
farms instead OF surrounding them
selves with artificial urban conditions.
In Austria one finds none of the so
cial unrest that exists in many other
countries. For Austria is an agricul-
tural country: here the balance be-
tween city and country is not destroy

are overcrowded to the detriment of
THE rural districts

PROPOSAL TO CHANGE TRAIN

This issue was fought to success
full conclusion and the train service
inaugurated some years ago through
a movement which was headed by the
Florida Council No. 553 of the United
Commercial Travellers, backed by all
of the chambers of commerce in the
cities affected by the train service.
The same arguments which were po-
tent then, in securing the order from
the state railroad commission direct
ing the Atlantic Coast Line to insti-
tute the train schedules as we now
have them, can still be urged in pre-
senting to the rilroad commission a
plea for the continuance of the service
Any proposition that would allow
one or two towns to barter this service
in the hope of securing some other ar
rangement that they might consider
to their advantage would be violation
of the good faith that these cities owe
to the travelling mems organization
No move or endorsement should be
given until the Florida Council No.

An interesting announcement for

An interesting announcement for
music lovers is the coming of D. w.
Grifhth's latest production, Dream
Street" which will open at the Isis
theater on Monday.
The picture is a dramatic comedy
and deals with the interesting and
picturesque lives of characters out of
two of Thomas Burke's Limehouse
stories, published under the titles OF
Gina Of Chinatown" and 1.-THE Sign
OF the Lamp While the locale is laid
in London town. on High or Poplar
streets, the little people are every
where on our tiny planet. They are
the poetic dreamers of life who look
through wistful, hazy windows or
walk upon the street of dreams.
Gypsy Fair is a music hall dancer
in Limehouse; her father is stool
pigeon of Scotland Yard. There are
two brothers devoted to each other
They are spike" and billie" McFad-
den. The former is the conqueror Of
the males with his fists and Drawn
while ne has a golden baritone voice
that wins the girls of the picturesque
neighborhood. The dual influence Of
good and evil are shown as these poetic
people struggle through the fogs and
mists Of their narrow streets out into
the sunshine of romance and love.
There is the ever silent. Sinking and
stealthy Oriental in Sway Wan. who is
seeking favor with the sprite of the
music hall. The swaying forces of
these peoples are under the spells OF a
street psalmist and a street fiddler.
The one is the good influence while
the other is the bad power which
sweeps through the souls and minds
of our heroine and her associates.
Carol Dempster enacts the roleR of
the music HAN dancer-Gypsy Fair wv.

boys devoted to each other since their

while the evil one is portrayed by
