CHAIRMAN BURR GOT HIS
FACTS MIXED ON GAS CARS

The United States labor board has
made no ruling as to the crews to be
used in the operation of gasoline or
electric motors on railroads. The
Marion County Chamber of Com
merce has obtained this information
from the labor board itself. Thus is
the objection that full crews are re-
quired on gasoline cars as voiced by
the Florida railroad commission at
its hearing in Gainesville in Febru-
airy, disposed of.
The Chamber of Commerce has
also found that the objection of the
Atlantic Coast Line railroad Off
Gals that no successful gasoline mo-
tor car has been perfected is con-
tradicted by the statement of other
roads that newly designed cars are
being operated with success. An
other objection put forward is that
the segregation OF races IN a single
car presents problem. 1t is believ-
ed by the Chamber of Commerce that
this objection can be met by the use
of trailer such as is being used by
at least one railroad and it is pointed
out that the segregation problem has
been handled in the past on street
railways.
The question as to the operation
of gasoline or electric cars on the
railroads. for local passenger travel
was brought to the front at the re-
cent hearing in Gainesville when the
Atlantic Coast Line requested per-
mission to take off certain local
trains said to be losing money

Much Interest Is
Being Manifested
in Augustine Meet

The St. Augustine Board Of Trade
is overwhelmed with acceptances of
their invitation to attend a Good
Roads Convention to be held in the
Ancient City, March 29-30.
Colonel Rolleston of the Saints Civ
ic Club, is doing real job in his or
ganizing plans. He has induced the
hotels to name special rates and when
the Alcazar gets down to six bones
for allowing one to be hostelried from
sun up to sun up, one knows old AL
has been persuaded.
The Gvernor, the City Manager
(local politicians, please note), the
Mayor, F. o. Miller, and others have
thought about being present, and it
is sure going to be some meeting.
1t goes without saying that Palatka
will be represented, if for no other
reason than to have the neighboring
rival in good humor for the baseball
season. Putnam county wants few
more good roads, and that isn't half
the story.
Delegates from the West Coast and
Central Florida has shown most in
terest in the convention to date, and
this is aother. reason why Putnam
county must hurry action in its Good
Roads movement. With highway
from DeLand to Palatka, the whole
West Coast would drive to st. Au-
gustine, via Palatka.

WOMEN AND MEDICINE.

In Europe, years ago, a woman
named Hildegarde wrote notable
book on medicinal plants. In those
days the men were too busy bother
ing about dogmas of religion and
medicine, and the study of herbs was
thought beneath their notice.
1t was the women, however, who
mostly conducted the hospitals and
cared for the sick, and thus they
learned much of great value. They
let the men fight out the questions
of theories.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound prepared almost fifty
years ago by a woman, Lydia E.
Pinkham, did then, and does now,
relieve the ailments peculiar to wom-
en-. 1t is vegetable compound and
of great value for this purpose. This
is proven day after day, and in your
own neihborhood, by grateful wom-
en- who have used it.
