unsightly displays of tin cans and
other rubbish. Mayor Kemper urgently
requests our citizens to see to it that
their premises are in tiptop shape.
The more enlightened element of
the town have been unanimous in ten

Many who talked with US declared
that though they had made many trips
to new states and new territories, no
where had they been so agreeably sur

as with Pensacola.
Florida, they said, is the new from

touched is wealth and health and hap
piness for many. Here, they said, is
opportunity for men who are willing to
work and strive, men who are willing
to put forth their best efforts.
This is no desert, they said, where

ADVENTURES OF
THE TWINS
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

Nancy and Nick, as you have heard,
are twins who have a fairy friend
called the Magical Mushroom, who is
the servant of the Fairy Queen. He
gives the twins pair of Magical
Green Shoes, which they wear when
ever the Fairy Queen wishes an err
rand done.
The Mushroom himself possesses
the magical gift of speaking any Ian
guage.
The Green Shoes not only can carry
their wearers safely over land and sea-
but they can change the size of their
owners at will.
Already have the twins been OF use
in assisting Mr.. Rubadub to spring
clean the animals in Scrub-Up Land;
in helping Mr.. Tingaling to collect
rents in the Land-o f-Dear- KNOWS

Pig Clubs for South
Florida.

Pig Clubs tor South
Florida.
1t is characteristic of new and
practically unknown country such as
Florida has been that countless ex-
periments with her resources have
been laughed at as impractical and
impossible by those of small imagi-
nation and little knowledge. 1t has
been only the logged persistence of
the dreamers and the pioneers which
have made possible the tremendous
developments of today. And it is the
same persistence which is still at
work today which is already insuring
much more tremendous development
of the future.
Florida as a hog country has al
ways been laughed at. Two years ago
was considered more than foolish. And
yet today we learn that a woman,
working alone on a hog ranch, has.
produced such remarkable specimens
as to attract the attention of hog
raisers from California and from
Texas. who have made the absolute
statement that never anywhere have
they seen such animals. Miss Carey
who has produced this result, some
times receives as many as one hun
dred callers day. all attracted by
word of her great success. What she.
has done for South Florida cannot be
calculated.
1t is the same woman who is trying
to start a movement for boys pig
clubs in Dade county. She has secured
the promise of a pig club man from
Gainesville. 1t will be simple matter
to get boys. But what is needed is the
backing of the community for her eff
forts and the promise of financial as
sistance. It is Miss Carey's hope that
the funds will be handled through one
of the local banks, so that there can
be no question as to their use. Her
desire is simply to see stimulated
here an interest in the raising of hogs
among the boys of the country SINH
lar TO that which has worked such
wonders in the middle west. It is not
to be imagined, under these circum-
stances, that she will fail,-Miami

Travelling Preachers and Collections

Travelling Preachers and Collections
The city of Macon, Georgia, has an
ordinance that prohibits collections on
the streets without first obtaining per
mission from the mayor. Recently
two street preachers were arrested,
forced to pay a fine, go to Jail or leave
the city, for taking collections after
the mayor had refused permit.
The mayor held that the establish
ed religious orders of the city were
entitled to all the contributions Macon
people can give. This is the attitude
that is being taken in number of cit
les. 1t is alleged that travelling evan
gelists work upon the syplpathies of
the people and take away large sums
of money, which, if given to the or
ganized churches, would help improve
the religious conditions of a city.
The street preachers arrested at
Macon contended that their arrest was
interference with religious liberty. The
Macon Telegraph has been devoting
considerable editorial comment to the
affair. Editor Anderson says that the
fact that Paul coveted no mans sill
yer, gold or apparel" but '1abored"
with his own hands to support him
self and those with him, at least part
OF the time or MS ministry, and that
Jesus took up no collections except
to feed the hungry, so divorces money
from the preaching of the Gospel that
it cannot be said that the denial to
take collections on the streets is in it
self a denial to preach on the streets.
Then, too, did not Jesus say: Freely
We have received, freely give?" Ac-
cording to another translation of this
passage, what you have cost you
nothing, so don't let it cost others any
thing"
The Telegraph contends for larger
charity and generosity and Is of the
opinion that the taking Of collections
is permissible as matter of equality
and justice. 1t says: There is so
much good to be done there is room
for everybody who has a helpful word
or a helpful deed. If preaching is
good thing, let everybody preach who
has anything helpful to preach. Since
doing good is beyond question a good
thing, let's encourage everybody who
will, to do good. If the street preach
ers want to stay in Macon, so long as
they preach and do helpful things, let's
encourage them to ay."-Miami Her

About Business.

We notice an article in a daily pa
per to the effect that business condi-
lions throughout the country are not
half as bad as some people would have
you believe The article was written by
financial expert and he takes oc-
CASTOR to say that the business situa-
ton is largely a state of mind"
We don't know how much stock the
average man takes in that sort of rea-
soning. but we do know that too much
pessimisitic talk does have, and is hav-
ing, a bad effect on conditions. Usu-
ally the man who drives ahead in the
belief that things are not as bad as
reparted, and who realizes that the sit
uation in the business world could be
much worse, is the fellow who is get
ting along best during these critical
times. The business man. the laborins
man, who stops to worry about what
tomorrow may bring forth, instead of
making the most of today, works him
self into such a state of mind that he
isn't in position to appreciate change
for the better when it comes.
There may be. after all. something
worth thinking about in the statement
that conditions are largely "a state OF
mind" At any rate it is worth while

Florida a Sugar
/ PRODUCING State,

That Florida's potentialities as a
future sugar producing state are rap
idly becoming recognized in keeping
with the real possibilities is again
demonstrated by the exclusive an
nouncement carried in Thursdays
Metropolis of the formation of a mill
lion dollar concern to develop cane
production and sugar manufacturing
possibilities in the Moore Haven Sec
ton, in the Everglades.
This makes the third really great
project of the kind to be announced
for Florida in recent months and as
result of them the state stands on the
very threshold of that day when she
will be the greatest competitor of Cuba
and Louisiana in the supply of the
sugar demands of not only the United
States but the world at large.
1t has been long recognized among
the older settlers of Florida that the
state afforded opportunities for the de-
velopment of a sugar industry little
realized even among the larger re-
timers of sugar. In recent years vari-
Gus financial enterprises and moneyed
men have been quietly investigating
the prospects for the successful estab-,
lishment of such enterprises, with the
result tnaL now Inere Is little question
but that investments made along these
lines are prompted by business wis
dom.
Florida has a climate which is admit
tedly far superior to that of Louisiana
for the purposes of cane production.
She has character and extent of soil
which will more than favorably COM
pare, with it all the state offers rea-
sonable cost of acres. together with
transportation facilities which are I'M

Florida has finally entered upon that
state of development that will place
her in the front rank of the great SUI

that the purchaser OF German goods
shall pay so per cent. of the purchase

ing in return a Treasury receipt which
he will hand to the German seller. who

This plan Will become operative imme-
diately the bills are passed.
Premier Lloyd George in his speech
on Monday took the view that such an
evasion as the passing OF goods through
neutral countries could be prevented by
insisting on certificates of origin. but
business men here seem somewhat
doubtful on this point. 1t is argued
that the plan either will seriously re-
strict trade or result in the German
sellers charging such prices that con-
sumers will pay the levy.
Premier Lloyd Georges opponents
are pretty sure to raise in the debate
the question Of the practical benefits
lost to Britain through the London de-
cisions. They will point out that Ger
many can still trade with the United
States. with neutrals and with Russia
Furthermore they will point out that
the question of direct reparation for the
devastation IN France goes by the board
as long as the Germans remain in their
present sullenly recalcitrant mood.
