OF THE DAY
THE NEW MADILL

A new Madill has arisen on the ashes
Of the old-on the sands of the old.
This new Madill is the one with So
odd blocks of paving. From the four
dimensions of the earth, the word has
gone forth that Madill has a huge
pavement program.
This AIadill that the world reads
about is progressive 1t is inhabited
by men and women who do things, who
perform that which they dream.
But to many of the inhabitants of
Madlll. the new Madill is but a vague
dream of a future. Some there are
who can not see this new Madll. They
are born without vision. They are born
without that quality which endows the
facts of progress. Visionless, they care
not for dreams. They are satisfied
To others Of inhabitants of our city,
the new Madnl is real. They are the
kind who believe in executing plans.
Give them a chance wherever they are
and they will change the community

Without a commercial club, the new
Madill Is an impossibility.
If we were TO send forth the news
that Madill is without a commercial
organization, without body of pro.

would the world say?

THE REFEREE
Failure.

In the Far East. Christianity has
come TO mean, war" says Fred =,
smith, religious investigator, after an
oriental tour. In India they told him,
christianity, cannon-ball, a submar-
Inc and a gas bomb go together"
Smith thinks the war set back, by
many years. what might have been the
progress of Christianity in China and
India.
The big Job for missionaries now is
to explain this to the heather: Christi
anity, the religion Of peace. is not a
failure. The trouble is in the failure
to live up TO the teachings of Christi
anity.

ROAD TO EASE

\ black skinned Algonquin In
dian canoes down to the Hudson
Ray post at Bear Island, Ontario.
lie brings story about an Eskimo
in the far north who has tanned
polar bears and trained them to do
his heavy teaming.
Big game hunters will doubt it,
for the polar bear has body about
as large as a piano box and is one
OF the most ferocious and cum
nings animals.
The incident, however, sets you
thinking about the tremendous
amount of work that man has pass
ed off on domesticated animals. He
has made slaves of horses, cattle
chickens, Eskimo dogs, camels, ele-
plants and host of others.
OF all these, horses are the most
intelligent. Elephants come second.
In India they are trained to work
all day on such tasks as moving and
piling logs.

would trade few years of life to be
able to shake off apprehension and

Gregg, the victim must learn to
control himself That is, bring the

cept and meet the problems OF life
sensibly and calmly.
The best medicine is work and a
hobby interesting enough to take
the patients mind off his worry and
make him forget it. The worry
may come back as soon as the
work and play are halted. But gen
orally the brain can be trained to
forget, just the same as it can be
trained to remember,
The moment you find yourself
worrying, strive to dismiss the sub
ject from your mind. Wipe it away,
like chalk writing from a black
board, and concentrate the mind on
something else.
Above all, remember that worry
is nine-tenths in the Imagination.

IVORY is psychopathic condi-
ton, an emotional disease. Some
times it is caused by unconscious
vanity-an exaggerated conception
of the importance OF ourselves and
our surroundings.

In school, you studied about the
three Kingdoms OF nature-animal,
vegetable mineral.
Man rose to his present state by
being a parasite on the animal and
vegetable kingdoms. Slowly but
surely he is relaxing his grip on
these and fastening himself as a
parasite on the mineral kingdom.
A good illustration is taking oil out
OF the ground instead OF getting it
by killing whales and hogs.
1t is a peculiar change, taking
place without much attention. But
it is vastly important in the history
Of mankind, definite and separate
step higher in the cycle Of mans
existence.

Most worries are imaginary. Doc
tors lately notice an exceptionally
large number of patients with moth
ing really wrong with them, yet
they are terribly worried All
they need is the physicians reas-
surance that the best thing is to
forget it,
Now that the medical profession
is beginning to understand the en-
docrine glands of the body, a pc
culiar cause of worry is discovered
This type OF worry sometimes takes
the form OF constant apprehen-
sion of impending disaster, fear
OF nothing in particular caused by
over-secretion OF certain chemicals
by the thyroid and adrenal glands.
Usually, though, worry is a men
tai disorder, a sort OF escape of
steam or leak from the disordered
nervous system.

Any old man can recall when
farmers used dogs, running on a
treadmill, to churn butter. Horses
were similarly used to operate
threshing machines.
Man is parasite.
Until the invention of the steam
engine, his existence depended al
most entirely on his parasitic use
of animal and vegetable life.
The steam engine ushered in
new era of power. Previously,
there were few instances OF man
using power not generated by ami
mals-such as wind moving sailing
ships and water power turning the
prayer wheels OF India.
Gradually we are shifting from
our position as parasite on ami
nal and vegetable life. The auto is
relieving the horse. SO are railroads
and flying machines. There is talk
OF food being produced synthetical-
" in laboratories instead OF by
growing and killing plant life.
Where we once preyed exclusively
on trees. a form of plant life, for
our dwellings, we now turn to
brick, concrete and metals like iron.

REPORT BOTH
SIDES STRIKE
Report of Strike Break
ers and Impending
Trouble Is Denied By
Both Railroad and I'm
ion Men - Both Sides
Standing Pat, But No
Bitterness Evident

A report that strike breakers were
being employed or about to be en-
ployed by the Atlantic Coast Line
shops here. and that trouble was i'm
pending as consequence was denied
today by the Coast Line headquarters.
Officials of the Shop Crafts Union
also disclaimed any knowledge of such
situation Both sides claim that
everything is quiet Rumored threats
have reached the ears of the railroad
executives, who do not regard them
as more than rumOrs.
The railroad is making out with
such labor as offers itself. This is
generally unskillcd for only partly
skilled labor, with now and then a
mechanic of experience. That the
rolling stock can not be kept in first
class condition under such circHm-
stances, is not denied. S. G. Ken
nedy, the general foreman of the
shops and other executives are oblig
ed to lend a helping hand with the
mechanical work.
Al he Coast Line yards the workers
are protected by guards. and a board
fence. two and a half miles long, is
being built around the railroad prop
erty and will be surmounted by
wire. BY this means, the railroad
expects to protect its workmen and
to prevent the strikers from coming
tC the place and mingling with the
work rs.
The friendly spirit evident between
the strikers and their former bosses"
is a matter of comment Both sides
say no bitterness has deveoped.
There has been very little disturbance
here and the idea that there will be
serious trouble in Lakeland is not en-
tertaincd around the
Coast Line headquarters.
where confidence is placed in this

ciples Of the shOpmen of Lakeland

The railroad claims that there is an
abundant supply of common labor
and the strikers state that the work
men 1t the shops are transient, com.
ing and 6oins in about equal num-
bCIs.
Both sides appear to be standing I
pat and that, in brief, is the situa-
ion.

ENLARGE HILLcREsT LODGE.

At the regular annual meeting of the
stockholders of Hillcrest Lodge,
Crooked Lake, held recently in Min
neapolis, the capital stock was in
creased $4,000 and an issue of pre-.
ferred stock, drawing seven per cent
interest was authorized, to be placed
on the market at once.
The proceeds are to be used in
clearing the property of all incum-
brances and to make needed improve
ments. The board hopes to add 25
or 80 rooms soon. either by adding
to the present building or by erect
ing several modern cottages on the
grounds.
The lodge has never been able to
meet the demands made on it during
the winter season.-Lake Wales High
