to note their doom and see their projects bust,
we only wept around each tomb enough to lay

promptly keep the date. No promise lightly leaves
his lip, but when his pledge is made, he never
fails, he never slips, his word must never fade.
He's an example to the town, landmark good to

WE HAVE SPACE TO SELL
Stanford Herald.)

The public knows so little about the making Of
a newspaper that the people are prone to attempt
to ride free space notices to death or rather to
ride the newspap per to death We have spoken of
this several times but it seems that have to
speak of it again. While we want all the local
news that we can get and are ready at all times
to publish anything of local interest there is no
reason in the world why column or SO Of some
thing that only interests one person in Sanford
should be given space. 1t costs money to set
type, it costs money to put it into print and yet
the general public seems to think newspaper
should be printed for nothing, should accept ev-
cry longwinded article thrust upon It, should
print free notices all the time should serve the
public without pay. There is just as much sense
in asking newspaper for free space as to ask
the groceryman for free groceries, the clothing
man for free clothes, the auto man for free auto.
Space is the newspapers stock in trade and while
the newspaper is willing to go the limit with
free notices it is a lead pipe cinch that there
must be stopping place and whenever we say
stop you can stop and regardless of whether it
makes the public mad or not the stop will be
right there. The editor of the Herald reserves
the right to accept or reject any and all matter
that goes into tho paper and regardless of wheth-
it suits the free spacer" not this rule will
be adhered to lat all times. Space is our stock
In trade and we sell It. The Eustis Lake Region
has been rode also and says the following re-
garding the free rides"
Lest you forget, we will take time again to
remind you that the Lake Regions space is its
stock in trade and as such has monetary value
1t Is priced the same to ALL irrespective of poll
tics, creed, class condition, provided it is not
used to advertise something illegal or undesir'
able. Editorialy, we boost everything we con-
slider legitimate and which rebounds to the up
building of our town, county and state, but we
must reserve our advertising space for those who
advertise as a business proposition and who are
willing to pay dollar for value received in adj
vertising."

ROGER BABSON ON FLORIDA

Florida newspapers have been quoting at length
an interview given press representatives at Daytona
by the famous statistician, Roger w. Babson.
probably the leading authority Of the day on
economic problems as relating to the present bust
ness situation. Mr.. Babson recently spent some
time in Florida, gaining 6rst-hand information as
to our resources and cur future possibilities. He
therefore put himself in position to speak with
authority. In the Daytona interview he expressed
amazemcnt at the general condition of business in
Florida, noting the remarkable growth of the
cities he had visited and the general tone of opt-
msm everywhere encountered. Then when he went
back to Philadelphia he published statement
over his own signature in the Philadelphia Public
Ledger that is we'll worth reading:
Il have travelled these last two weeks" Mr.
Babscn says in his statement, from Maryland to
Florida, and then westward through Georgia, Ala
bama and Mississippi
Conditions are surely better in the South At
lantic states than they were a year ago. At that
time it pitiful to see the distress among both
the rich and the poor Like an epidemic, the bust
ness depression when it struck the South showed
no favoritism
Rlch and poor young and old, were all hit
together. Virginia. North Carolina and Northern
Georgia show more Improvement than does the
rest of the South. The best cities for sales are
Richmond, Virginia; Greenboro and Charlotte,
North Carolina; Charleston and Columbia South
Carolina; Columbus, Augusta and Atlanta Geor-
gia. Each enc CT them will show much better
business in 1922 than in 1921.
Florida is not included in the above list as
with the exception of the northern part-there has
been no real depression in Florida If Florida were
in the western part of TIE country should say it
will surely be hit by the depression wave some
time within the next two years But considering the
fact that the present depression started in the
East and that the South has already received its
blow, the southern part Of Florida may escape
this time without being hit.
This, however. doesn't mean Florida will al
ways be immune from business depression. Some
day there will be real estate collapse in Florida
just there has always been in every state after
period of great prosperity.
Il am distinctly bullish on the South The
young man CT the North | should advise to 20
South rather than West. Certainly our South
Atlantic states offer agriculturally industriay and
commercially better opportunities to the young man
OF today than does South America"
