OFF FOR THE SUNNY SOUTH

L. G.. Seidle, Atlantic avenue near
Cedar avenue, has closed his barber
shop for the winter and is now on his
way to the southland. His objective
point is Stuart, on the famous st.
Lucie river, in Palm Beach County,
Fla, about 100 miles north of Miami.
The main line of the Florida East
Coast Railroad crosses the st. Lucie
river at Stuart, as does also the great
"Dixie Highway" on the new $1,000 00
reinforced concrete bridge. The st.
Lucie river is really a big arm of the
sea. A canal is now being cut from
Stuart to. Lake OkeechQbee. When
finished it will open a water route
across the state, from the Atlantic
Ocean to the Gulf of Mexico.
The average temperature of Stuart
is 81 degrees in winter and SO in sum-
mer. Pineapples, oranges and grape
fruit grow in abundance there, and the
fishing is so good that this section is
spoken of as being "fisherman's para
disc" One man in Stuart has $50
varieties of fish which he himself
caught and mounted.
Desiring to keep in touch with Wild
wood affairs, Mr.. Seidle has requested
that the Journal be forwarded him
every week during his s~ojourn there
in care of Howard D.. Bailey, in whose
t~onsorial rooms our Wildwood artist
may be found catering to the needs of
southern tourists. This will be Mr..
SeidIe's second engagement with Mr..
Bailey. Time was, some years ago,
when there was much truth in the
saying: "Take the climate away from
Florida and little else would remain;
but not so now. Wonderful changes
in the line of business and progress
have taken place in the everglade state
within the past few decades.

Safety First-AdyiCe From Building Inspector

On December 3, 1921, a porch rail
ave way on the third floor Of a dwell
ing in this city. A small child fell
this distance to the ground, but for
tunately was not seriously hurt.
To avoid accidents of this nature I
would suggest to property who
have second and third story porches,
to insert iron bands from porch rail
to post. This suggestion is made be-
cause the dampness and salt air of this
locality cause the nails to rust off and
leave the porch rail loose, thus Gre
ating danger and an opportunity for a
recurrence of an accident as above
stated. This simple method of the
iron band will give you and yours pro-
lection. Let us plan for Safety First.
