Commissioner Edgar Keen of Santa

Milton, recently returned from an auto
mobile trip made through south Florida,
and Mr.. Keen said yesterday that in
spite of the good roads which prevails
in most parts Of the peninsular, and the
beauties of scenery, that he felt more
than proud Of west Florida, and that he
felt, too, that it could be honestly said
that the scenery in this part of the
state in many ways surpasses much that
has advertised the east coast and other
famed sections of the state.
To Fort Myers.
The party made the trip as far south
as Fort Myers, going through the Okee-
chobee section and along up the east
coast. visiting Daytona Beach and other
points Of interest.
Mr. Keen was most enthusiastic about
the splendid system of roads in Polk
county. and high in his praises Of the
asphalt paving.

Racing Pigeons Are Turned

To Their Northern Domiciles
cooPs Of Birds" Are Shipped to Pen
saeola to Be Turned Loose
at Certain Fine.

An American sport that is growing
in popularity, especially in the larger
cities of the north and in few south
ern cities, is that of breeding and
racing pigeons. j. H. Dieckman Of
the American Railway Express COM
pany's office at the Louisville and
Nashville depot, said yesterday that
he had turned loose more than $50
birds within the last few months for
enthusiastic pigeon racers of New
York and Philadelphia.
Heavy Bets.
The birds are Grated by the owners
and shipped to Pensacola with in
structions that they be turned loose
on certain day at a given hour, Each
pigeon has a small band around one
Of his legs with the registration num-
Der and the name of the owner, and
their individual lofts in the north are
fitted out with an instrument that
will record the time of their arrival
back home" Heavy bets, it is said,
are wagered between the owners of
the birds on the outcome of the races
and the records which they make.
Coops of "a.
Two coops, with about "a birds in
each, arrived Saturday from n. B.
Coar OF Tinsdale, Penn. and after
they had been rested until Sunday
afternoon at o'clock-feed had been
provided-Mr. Dieckman opened the
coops. Rising some fifty feet in the
air, Mr.. Dieckman said, they circled
around the station several times and

1000 Miles, 3 Hours.
The distance by rail from here to
New York is something like 400 miles
and by a direct line-the way the
pigeons travels about 1000 miles
some OF the birds last year made the
flight from Pensacola to New York In
nine hours, he stated.
During the early summer months
seems to be he best season for racing
owing to the fact that most OF the
birds are shipped here along about
this time of the year.
Bred for Endurance.
In explaining the sport Mr.. DECK
man said that the pigeons are bred
for endurance, the breeders vieing with |
each other to see who can get the |
hest results. There are 200 mile birds, |
ZOO mile ones, and UP to 1900 miles. |
The 1000 mile class are generally the |
mes turned loose here.
The efficiency of pigeons as
means of communication was demon
ztrated during the war, and here at
he Naval Air Station hundreds OF
birds are kept for that purpose. In
nalxine long distance flights in the
,lanes the department finds them IN
;aluable for carrying messages.

Since the war, when physical

I In New York foot clinics, main
tanned by charitable physicians,
treat from 100 to 200 poor patients

means all simple ones is indicated
. by the fact that the clinic
maintains its baking machines

Adopting Scientific Methods.
Shoe scientists are determined
TO remove forever from con-

When does a shoe it perfectly? by
substituting scientific standards for

maintained in developments in this
direction.
And now one member Of the pro-

of producing shoes to conform to
them.
Mr.. De Ridder has pointed out
that since some 16l devices TO pre-

now said to be on the market and
that many Of these are intended to
