SANFORD IS HonoRED

Bob Holly is even more chesty over
a recent honor that has come his way
than he ever has been over the won
derful achievements of the Celery
City in the way of the production OF
health-giving celery and crisp lettuce.
Some months ago the Review of Re-
views, directed series of test ques
tions to the school children of Ameri-
ca to determine their knowledge of
currents events A total of 19,446
answers were received to the ques-
tions but only one of the whole num-
Der was correct in all particulars.
That was sent in by Sanford school
girl 16 years of age, Miss Pattye Lyles.
That was a great honor coming to
Sanford and it's schools, and we sus-
pect that Miss Pattye acquired a
measure of her proficiency and know
ledge of current events through a
careful and systematic reading of the
Sanford Daily Herald, one of the best
little dailiesi in the state, over whose
deStinies Bob Holly himself pre-
sides with grace and dignity. No
wonder he feels bit chesty He has
reason to.
OF the 19,446 papers received from
all over the country only 115 contained
more than 80 per cent of correct
answers while 1928 answered less
than so per cent correctly The gen.
eral average was only Al per cent. The
questions are sent broadcast twice
yearly to schools of all grades in or
der to stimulate intertst in the teach
ing of current events.
Boys made better grades than girls
throughout Normal school students
did little better than high school
boys and girls. One normal school
with 5s5 students averaged Is per
cent of correct answers Tampa

knowing that without this local pro.

hundred and fifty men, each selected

assembled every two years in every
county site in the nation and there
drafted a political chart to express
the wishes of those who called them
selves democrats. Thus, since the
days Of Andrew Jackson, whatever of
good, or of bad, was done under the
name of democracy was sanctioned by
the people themselves, for each county
convention promulgated its platform
and sent it to a state convention.

CONVENTION SYSTEM

| political intelligence each state pos
sessed. and it summed up the views of
a majority on state and national is
sues.
In those by-gone days vent was
given to free-for-all expressions of
political unrest, in soap-Box oratory
and in local conventions: the capacity
of men for politics and debate was
developed to a truly amazing degree.
Their corners were freely knocked off
by their fellows; but if any man in
the remotest part of any state was
possessed of an idea which rang with
truth, or which portended good for his
people, he could give it untrammeled
expression and had opportunity to
transmit it into action in state. or
national, way without marring his
freedom of speech by becoming can
fdidate for office.
These state conventions, so CON-
posed, declared the views of a ma
jority of their people on national
questions and sent delegates to a ma
tional convention where a platform
was prepared from the composite
views of all democrats who lived be-
tween the days of Jackson and the
year 1900.
But during about twenty years past
the citizens of Florida have left their
governors and lawmakers wholly to
drift in the currents of private infiu-
ence and private views; while each
voter goes, blindfolded as it were. to
cast his mute and purposeless ballot
for twelve unknown names of those
whose ideas are wholly unknown to
him; those twelve men sit in nation
al convention every four years to
speak their private opinions, as being
the views of near a million people, for
whom, thus stified and gagged, ma
tional policies are fixed, and the vast
machinery of democracy is set in mo-

Thus disinterested patriotic politi-
cal action is put at discount. and
many gems of political thought may
melt away like pearls in the cup of an
Egyptian queen.
This is the heydey for the trimmer
and the Halifax, the quack and the
mountebank and for him who is all
things to all men.
In practical results this is oligar-
chy; only tempered, in the main, by
rulers whom we may choose as being
jolly good fellows, or whose intellect,
being inadequate to cope with oppos-
ing ideas, find political strength by
having no ideas of their own; thus the
negative virtues exempt them from
the deadly shafts of small cults and
factions, which will carry any politi-
cal Goliath to his doom, unless he be
supported by binding party action ex-
pressed in platform
