what is fair and square, but they give training
in intense and eager application that can be
had in no other way. This power of concentra-
tion, when highly developed, assumes a quality
of eagerness and singleness of purpose that
makes with great sureness for success.
In the great outdoors where one comes close
to Natures primitive FORMS her beauties and her
laws. the boy or youth can more readily under
stand her creative mysteries.
BY association with those of different environ
ments and living together apart from the artf-
calites of city life they learn the necessity for
social service and right relationships.
The summer camps of the y. NJ. C. A. offer
just these opportunities for the boys of Florida
under Christian auspices and the leadership of
specially trained men. Camp Carson is located
in Polk county Frostproof on the east shore
of Lake Reedy. The equipment includes a spa
cous and comfortable dining hall and large cook
house all thoroughly screened and furnished with
all the necessities of camp life. Commodious
army tents and cots provide outdoor sleeping
accommodations. As for the sanitary arrange
ments, assurance is given that they have been
approved by competent medical experts
So many requests have lately been made for
information concerning the summer camps at
Camp Carson that L am infringing on space in
the Evening Telegram that ali interested in
boy life may know what great opportunity
lies at our very doors for heathtul recreation
and education under the most delightful auspices
The first camp period will be for boys from 8

COMPULSORY VACCINATION

| ampa has been having controversy over the
subject of compulsory vaccination for smallpox,
and latest reports indicate that the authorities
have weakened and agreed tacitly at least not
to press this remedy upon unwilling subjects
While it must be admitted that no fact in medi-
cal science is entirely beyond conroversy--Ein-
stems theory of relatively having its due applca
ton to medicine as we'll as physics and philosophy
the value of vaccination is supported by many
years of experience and is supported by the theory
OF disease as it exists
1t is proved SO nearly beyond controversy that
the public, acting in sclf-defensc is abundantly
justified IN accepting it as an established fact.
and acting upon it as such The slrictest appIica-
ton of the personal rights theory does not justify
any person who mikes with the public in refusing
to guard against contagious diseases The per-
sonal right principle as announced by Herbert
Spencer, its greatest exponent, Is this: ANY man
may do whatever he pcases so long as he does
not interfere with the equal rights of al others
to do what they please Under that rule man
has right to contract smallpox himself. if he
wants it, but he has no right to endanger the
health Of Others He has right to control his
own children, so long as his control neither inter
feres with their rights Of health and safety nor
makes them a source Of danger to Others.
But it /; fact according to the best evidence
we have or the subject, that refusing TO permit
child to be vaccinated may result in the suffering
and Disagreement for life of the child, and may
aid in the spread Of oathsome disease which will
cause suffering and perhaps death to many other
persons Therefore compulsory vaccination is
justified both under our conception of personal
rights and the right of society to protect itself;
and the fact that some individual refuses to accept
the medical principles of vaccination does not ex-
cuse him from conforming to The law.

other states, and the results, as published else

Florida has little unemployment. although at
this, season there is always some. A few excep-
tons, like the strike situation at ampa are noted
but the fact stands out prominently that labor is
busy and capital hopeful
Price reductions have not affected Florida as
much other states. Most of the reduction has
been IN things which Florida buys-and, it must
be confessed, except in groceries and some forms
OF cotton goods, most CT the reduction is imagi-
nary There have been no disastrous slumps,
either IN manufactured goods or farm products,

THE SALES TAX
States.

Despite the nsdious. plausible and rather i'm
pudcnt propaganda of certain big business inter
ess for sales tax. which would shift the whole
burden of collecting the nations revenues to the
shoulders Of the poorest rewarded class of middle
men, VIC do not think it will pass. Congressman
will shy when it comes TO voting on it.
They will have a haunting vision Of the corner
grocery and the cross roads store back home,
where political opinion is moulded, where dis
cusson is free. and where votes are made and
lost The act would make every retail merchant
an unpaid collector of internal revenues with all
labors and responsibilities Of collecting and ac-
counting for the governments taxes--doubling his
abcrs subjecting him to risk and increasing the
amount of capital he would haYe to possess; but
it would also make him twenty four-hour-a -day

vote helped to put him into the scrape.: r--s i

the people there would be crepe on the seats of
good many members when the sixty-eghth session
opened in 1923.

FOR BETTER OFFICERS

Tie bill prepared by Professor Jones to pro-
vide for educational qualifications for county SUI
perintendens Of schools ought to be passed by the
lesis aure, not that it is in itself complete remedy
for the defects Ct our school system but because
without capable corps of officers to administer it,
remedy can be effective.
Educational work is perhaps the most difficult
that can be engaged in. 1t requires the cultivation
and exercise of almost every mental faculty SUI
perintendents stand in the relation Of superors to
teachers. directing. guiding and criticising their
work; but unless they are in fact superior in
knowledge and training, the relation becomes
farce.
1t is clear that improvement in the school sys-
tenn must start at the head 1t is also true that
without adequate provision for taking care of the
teachers and making it profession in which the
best talent can afford to enlist. no amount of fitness
on the part of the administrative officers wuold
achieve much improvement
Hence. the Telegram would like to see the
Jones bill pass, starter. Then. it would like
tc see sufficient funds provided, and the whole
system overhauled so as to give the state the best
educational facilities to be found in the United
States
