BUSY PLANNING FOR
 LEGISLATIVE BALL

If members of the legislature are putting in long hours. the attaches are putting in double time. Beside their official duties they are giving almost constantly of their spare time to prep arations for the legislative ball to be held at the Shrine auditorium on the night of Feb. 2S..
 There will be such a variety of dances that night as have not been seen in this country in recent years. There are many members of the legis- lature who are not familiar with the one step or the two-step or any of the ungodly dances which have developed in the course of the present century. For their entertainment there will be the square dances and other dances of their boyhood days
 Though the preparations are not complete. it is understood that Gov. and Mrs. T. E. Campbell will lead the grand march.

Blue Bird

Dancing is one of the most appreciat- ed pastimes offered the public today, and when the dance is offered amid the environment of happiness always to be found at the Blue Bird, it becomes a real treat. The big hall, roomy, in fact the largest in the state is in the finest of shape, and the management exerts every effort to keep it so. Carol Reed and his inimitable band are on hand every night to furnish the inspiration for the dance supreme, while the re- freshment conveniences are always on hand throughout each evening" The Blue Bird offers ample check room fla cilities, and seating arrangement that permits of plenty of room at all times
 F. s. Mayfield continues to conduct his daily dancing classes. thus offering ex- ceptional opportunity to all who would acquire the art of the dance. All the latest types of ballroom dancing are

 In this plan for civic and community centers linked by a wide mall, one of the outstanding features is the utili- zation of the Salt River canal, known as the town ditch,' for lagoon sys- tenn. The lagoons will be flanked by palm lined driveways.

This pie ture is a typical small town" base ball show. It's leading character is a pitcher of more than ordinary ability among the "bushers." A scout dis covers him, and notifies his team.

famous emotional actress, such a pro-

opens at the Grand Theatre today.

GOVERNOR is RIGHT NOT
TO CALL SPECIAL TERN.

Governor Hardee has declined to
call special session of the Florida
legislature for the purpose of author
izing the issuance of half million
dollars worth of bonds with which
to continue the Dade county schools,
deplorable as the condition in that
county may be. The fact that Dade
county offered to pay the expense Of
the special session does not dispose
of all of the objections to such a pro-
cedure, and Governor Hardee very
properly stated the paramount rea-
son as being that Of precedent.
But this will not satisfy very
large per centage of the people of
Dade county, and already the Gov
ernor is being grilled. The Miami
Metropolis quotes a speaker at a
luncheon of the Civilian club as say
ing: "Who is Cary A. Hardee any
way that he should stand in the way
of Dade county children having a
chance to go to SCHOOL," demanded
Dale Miller in the midst of heated
discussion of the question. isn't
he our servant? Didn't we elect him
to serve US? We are a pack of
towards if we sit back and let every
thing go just because he has once
declined to call special session. If
we can show him that Dade county,
100 percent strong, demands this spe-
cial session, he will give it to u.s."
But Miami and Dade county are
very small portions of the state OF
Florida, the school board knew that
the present situation faced them
when the last legislature was in ses'
sion, for it is evidenced in the pas.
sage of a local bill permitting then
to issue time warrants. In express
ing his reasons for declining to cal
a special session Governor Hardet
said that under the constitution O.
the state it would be necessary at thu
proposed special session to take VI
all acts of the administration be
tween the time of the last session
and the special session, including ap
pointments, dismassals and matter
of that character and that besides i
would be establishing "a preceden
that would result in many of tn
counties of the state asking for
special session on the slightest pre-
text.
