was formerly president of the Wis

1t is very interesting to learn that
Mr.. and Mrs. Youmans made their
first trip to Florida twenty.nine years
ago, and Mrs. Youmans spoke enter
tainingly of that trip. as follows:
Our first visit to Florida took place
Twenty-Five years ago when we
toured the state with the Wisconsin
Editorial Association. At that time
the East Coast Railway had been
built for some years and the great
hotels at st. Augustine were receiv-
ing guests, but the west coast was
just coming into the attention of Wis
itors and the Tampa Bay Hotel was
new. Mr.. Plant was there at the time
and gave an address to the assembled
editors, in which he prophesied great
things for Florida, although even

"One of the features of our trip
which | remember particularly well
was an excursion through an orange
grove over a little narrow guage rail
way which had been laid through the
grove for the purpose of facilitating
the handling of fruit Temporary
seats were placed on the little fiat
cars. and we were crowded onto these
seats and whisked about the grove
at u lively pace by a small but VIC
lently active engine. | cannot remem-
Der where that grove was located and
no one here now seems to know about
it.
AT kissimmee, a big sugar factory
was pointed out as indicative of a flu
ture industry of the state. 1t is in
ruins now, but | understand that.
cane-growing is going forward salts
factorily in other parts of the state.
We visited the phosphate mines
and were assured that their value
was equal to if not superior to gold
mines-a prophesy which seems to
have been fulfilled.
"Col. Elliott was in charge of the
trip through Florida.
MIR. Youmahs and have been COM
ing to Florida every year for the past
five fears and are greatly Interested
in the marvellous growth of this state.
We believe the Ridge country is des.
tined to be one of the great citrus
growing centers of Florida"

A Chevrolet automobile owned by B. F. Showalter was completely de- strOyed as the result of an accident in which 1t figured yesterday after noon. MT. Showalter was returning from East Berlin in his automobile and was almost at the top of Galpin's Hill near Berlin street when he mo- ticed another car turning the corner to go south.
 He immediately applied his brake to prevent running into the car and he put in his clutch. When he did this something snapped and the auto mobile began to go backwards down hill. Neither the brake nor the clutch would hold and the car increased in speed MT. Showalter kept the ma chine in the middle of the road for some length of time but it finally swerved to one side and when in the gutter he lost control. This was near the Supernaut home on the east Berlin road.
 It was at this point that the auto- mobile backed into the telephone pole with great force. Mr. Showalter was able to get out of the machine soon after it struck the pole without any apparent injuries. The automobile however, was completely demolished, being damaged beyond repair

 Legion May Act
 At the special meeting of the Amer ican Legion held at the T. A. B. hall last evening it was voted that definite action be taken in the form of some sort of a reception for General Foch as he passes through Berlin on De- cember 13 as was told in last eve- ning's Herald. Before any action will be taken on the matter, however, the members of the legion would like to feel as though they had the support of the towspeople.
 Lawrence southard stated this morning that the local post would endeavor to have the train stop at Berlin for five to ten minutes the people in the town would be willing to cooperate with the legion. Hedid not feel however that it would be wise to have the train stop if there were not to be any peo- pie at the station. The people of the town are asked to consider the propo- sition and are urged to cooperate with the legion in having the train stop in Berlin. If this is the case 1t
