Memories of Days When

Romance and political history, as

the bungalow settlement that is near

1t is noteworthy that for thirtv-onc
years before the structure was dis

.Au tomobile Tags
For Florida Are
At Last Found

TALLAHASSEE, Dec. 24.-(SpeciaD
1t was learned at the comptroller's Of
flee this morning, that the shipment of
automobile tags necessary before the
actual issuance Of tags can be COM
menced was reported at Arlington, Ga,
en- route, yesterday, and will. reach
Tallahassee tonight.
The comptrouer's office is thoroughly
organized for The work and prepared
to begin the issuance OF tags just as
soon as they arrive. Indications now
are that this work will begin Tuesday
morning. In the meantime the de-
partment has had to mark time await
ing the delivery of the tags.
The comptroller states that the con-
tract calls for the delivery of these
tags Dec. !, and that he has always
followed the practice Of making a de-
duction in the payment for the tags to
cover expenses caused by delay of the
contractor in furnishing the tags.
This practice according 20 Mr.. Amos.
will be followed in this case. as his
office has been ready to commence
the work for some time, but has had
to mark time on account of the delay
in getting the tags. Beside the de-
duction referred to, there is also a de-
duction made in case the tags fall be-
low the standard required by the
specifications furnished by the comp
troller's office.
1t is probable that next week will
see a large volume of tags actually
mailed out.
