some OF the historic places in the

certs from the letter:
Dear Bro, Sitter:
This is Armistice Day and | have

National cemetery here, where
there are twenty-five graves Of boys
who gave their lives in the late
World War. Liucolns Gettysburg

q very appropriate memorial in Il
National cemetery.
THE public and High School build
ing is located directly across the
street from Mrs. Stevens residence.
They employ thirty.elght teachers
and have 1000 scholars. The County
supt. of Schools has his office in the
school building. The school board
employs a dentist by the year who
has his office in the school building,
and who cares for the teeth of all
the children in the school free of
cost. The Catholic School has about
an equal number OF scholars. The
teachers on the Catholic schools in
Florida are required to pass the
same examinations to secure certi'
icates as the teachers in the public
schools. Then they .have separate
schools for the colored children, who
are about one-third of the population
of ST. Augustine. The state school
for deaf and blind is located here,
and they have several hundred
scholars. They have fine buildings
and a beautiful campus.

ment to pay and invited "a practice of
sacrificial barter" by the veterans.
That the bonus would not diminish
the later obligation in the way of pen
sionS to the World war veterans.
Asserting that this obligation would
cost more billions than / venture to Sug
gest." the President declared that "a ra-

To make the nation ready for the eXpen-

the coming years.
Mr.. Harding also called attention to
the sums now being expended for the
care of the diseased disabled or depend
ent and asserted that the total cost of
this work, with insurance liability added,
probably would exceed S2j.000,0OO.
Only once did the President refer to
the interest on the foreign debt, out of
which proponents of the bonus have
contended it could be paid. He told con-
gress that the government was facing a
deficit of $500 100000 during the cur
rent fiscal year and n further deficit for
the year succeeding even after counting
on all interest collections on foreign in
debtedness which the government is
likely to receive"
As to the immediate and ultimate cost
of the bonus. Mr. Harding said this was
not definitely known. Treasury esti-
mates, based on what seemed the most
likely exercise of the options, he con-
tinued. figured the direct cost at $795.-
10000 for the first four years and
total cost in excess of $4,000.OO0, 600.
He added that no estimate Of the larg-
