FLORIDA

Her foliage and ferns are tangled
mass-her lakes are liquid blue,
While her skies are clear and of
dreamy depth-and freighted
with incense, too;
Her air is balmy and full of health
and fragant from shore to shore,
Thus, the port once souht from the
Spanish main lies an Eden for
ever more.
They say she's merely tongue of
land far-fung in an azure sea,
But her flowers and fruits lie on
every hand-and that's quite
enough for me.
No towering mountains may grace her
plains-no canyons of foggy gray,
But her beautiful forests in scattered
plots are visioined for miles
away;
Her rivers are ebbing their peaceful
course and her tree-fringed lakes
are fine,
With borders of live oak and flower
ing shrubs-or the boles of some
SfdceIul pine.
They say she's merely a tongue of
land far-fiung in a tropic sea,
But her wealth of beauty on every
hand is constant delight to me-:
Her soil is fertile, her climate mild,
and buyont her brilliant skies,
While her marked abundance of
native wealth gives the promise
Of Paradise;
Stalwart her sons and her daughters
fairas the maidens of Grecian
mould,
For the gifts Of the Gods have been
showered there in tale that is
far from told.
they say she is merely a tongue of
land far-fung in q, turquoise
sea,
But ner beauty and grace cover
every strand and snes just the
home for me.

WELLS SPEAKS OUT

The article of III. G. Wells on Prem
Ter BRANDS speech, published in the
larger dalies throuh the United
States, is one of the clearest cut con-
tributions to armament discussion
that has yet been made, as well as
the severest arraignment of the
French government that has appear
ed in the American press.
Mr.. Wells describes IN the most
vivid manner situation which, if it
actually exists, is complete bar to
all hopes of armament reduction. The
only question is, Is his premises
souad?
that France is actuated by fear of
Germany or Russia He SCOTS at the
notion that there is anything about
Russia to arouse approximations as
the French profess, and indicates very
bluntly that Germany is living up to
the Versailles treaty closer than
France is.
Most astonishing Of all. however, is
his charge that France is in reality
arming against Great Britain His
notion is that the French republic,
intoxicated with her victory in the
world war, is INDUCING in dreams Of
world empire like those which Grim
soned the map of Europe in the time
of Napoleon. Wells occupies no Off
cial position He is talking to the
public. Millions in England and Amer
lea read his articles, and, while there
is, naturally, large contingent Of
opposition, there is also large part
of the public ready to accept his
views.
In this country his views operate
under the additional advantage Of
novelty. While millions have thought
what he is saying, the peculiar hush,
hush policy of public officers and
most of the press has. prevented the
canvassing Of this side Of the ques-
ton. But the issue is merely mem
Itioned rather than raised BY Wells.
1t is actually raised by the inevitable
Ioic Of the situation. ! can not be

PIo Clubs Flourish.

Wall Street has many club and fra ternity men, but probably no mem- bers of the Pig club. Indeed, such a club could not flourish In lower New York. Yet, 1t is one of the greatest clubs in the country. The promoters are usually country banks. Member ship Is obtained by borrowing money from the bank to buy pig of distin- guished ancestry. Little freckle-faced farm boys make up the membership. The notes are always paid in full and the embryo farmer becomes a pro ducer of thoroughbred live stock. One little member in Oklahoma who started with a pig and a debt at the bank recently walked out of the fair ground with big cash prize in his pocket, and now he owns herd of purebred Poland China's and a bank account. The Middle West Is swarm ing with such members and still new clubs are forming. Wall Street Is in- terested because in one year the pack CTS alone paid the farmers $1,75S, ,000,- 900 for hogs. and these little club members are adding immensely to the value of the future prOduction.-Wall Street Journal.

Dunsany a Fast Writer.

Lord Dunsany, who, despite the slump in theaterland, has had a new play produced in London recently, ap- pears to be we'll nigh as facile a play wright as Lope de Vega, remarks the Manchester Guardian. From the pref ace to Plays of Birls and Men" we learn that the longest of these, a three-act tragedy. took him only three days to write; a twoact play took two days; a one-act play one day. The time allowance of an act a day was exceeded only in the case of "The Queens Enemies" the single act of which took six days, and most read CTS of the volume will agree that 1t Is the least effective play of the four. Mir. Pond, the lecture agent under whose auspices Lord Dunsany toured the States two years ago, says: ''ro see Lord Dunsany at work-a thing which he seldom permits-is to see a ceremonial. He uses large, square cut enameled paper, and he writes with a quill pen. On one side he has 8 great stack of fresh blotters, and when he finishes page he blots 1t and throws the blotter away"
