da is fast becoming the playground
and garden spot Of America, with
year round climate bubbling over
with many projects for building and
Identification, with money spending
and money making care free peopie
from all over the United States.
A great many people in the north
have always viewed Florida as a
land of swamps, alligators, niger
babies and snakes, but on the other
hand after scrutinizing the statistics
very carefully, one finds the state
capable of producing four crops per
year. Thousands of acres of straw
berries are picked in February and
in several cases 0,000 quarts of the
berries have been grown on one
acre (the everbearing kind, four
crops per annum) Then again
40 1000 carloads of oranges and
grape fruit leave the state every
year, with the melon and tomato
crop exceeding S2.000.000. The
potato crop in the vicinity of Has
tings is estimated at $4,000 900,
with hundreds of thousands of acres
of muck land being prepared to pro-
duce the finished article from cane

necessity of having to import thou

THURSDAY, JANUARY II, 1924
MUST HOWL

SO far as can be learned no one
found any fault with the committee
named to act as the jury in award :
ing the winner in the Box peace con-
test. They had 22,164 plans for
their consideration The one selected
was the unanimous choice of the
committee after giving every plan
submitted the most carefu1 study
and consideration. Since the plan
openly embraces SO much of the
League of Nations, the same bunch
that fought the League are rising in
their criticism of the plan the COM
mittee selected. Elihu Root and
General James G. Harbord, both
Republicans, are classed as the
brainiest men of their party, abso-
iutely sound and conservative. They
are very far from being Missionaries,
or "Wilsonites," and they together
with the balance of the most capable
committee were all of one mind.
While the plan calls Tor reservations
TO the League Of Nations, it is over
whelmingly League like. Already
petty political pests are howling
against the plan. They simply will
not consider it on its true merit, but
let first of all creep into their minds
petty politics This opposition that
has developed and in the way that
it has. is only another proof that the
League of Nations was never proper
:" ly considered on its merits. Had it
been, America would today be a
membe er, and taking her rightful
place in the assisting in solving the
great world problems.

Resolution OF Respect

Whereas, the Great Master of the
Universe has seen fit to call from
our midst Brother Boyd Mccormick
who was lifelong member of Neely-
vile Grange No. 299, having become
a charter member in 1878; his life
a long, active and useful one, devot-
ed to good works. especially in his
church, in the grange and in the
temperance cause his life work a
fine heritage left to his children, his
friends. and to the community in
which it was lived.
Therefore be it resolved that we
extend our heartfelt sympathy TO
the family; that our charter be drap"
ed for a period Of 80 days: that
these resolutions be spread upon our
minutes; and copy be sent to each
county paper for publication.-Eva

those who all their lives have lived
in towns where everything is a. COM
promise, can readily visualize the
wonderful future that awaits them
upon completion of their new homes
in the made to order town of Rio
Vista, Fla.
AS far as my observations. have
extended in this land of perpetual
sunshine, and having travelled in al
most every country in the world,
feel that / can state with authority
that there is no place to compare e
with this beautiful Halifax country,
either from financial or health
giving standpoint, and my greatest
desire is to see all our friends in
Morgan county spend at least one
winter in this wonderful locality.
In closing, wish to state that, the
influx of people into this particular
section has increased several hum
dred per cent in the past three
years, that alone being evidence
enough as to the future of the Won
der state.
Mrs. Wade joins me in wishing all
our intimate friends and readers of
the Democrat, happy and pros
porous New Year. So come one,
come all, we have saved place
for you, that is the spirit of Florida.

WAS The PRESIDENT TOLD?

At Christmas time, it is the GUS
tom of executives, state and national,
to express the spirit Of the season ~
granting clemency to certain de-
serving inmates Of the penitentiary.
President Coolidge granted only
a few pardons on his first Christmas
IN office. One went to Philip Gross
man, who had been sentenced to one
year in jail by Judge lands, on
February Z, 1921, for falling to
close his saloon in accordance with
Il Federal injunction.
When the Presidents pardon was
received. Robert Levy, the United
States marshal at Chicago, announc-
ed that Grossman would be Obliged
to come to Jail from his nome to ac-
cept his pardon. For Grossman had
not served an hour of his sentence.
Appeal had been taken after his SEN
tence, the higher courts had upheld
the appeal, and Grossman had not
appeared to serve his term, because
as Marshal Levy phrased it, he
wanted to stay home and celebrate
the Christmas season. Then came
the executives pardon.
There will be considerable curios-
ity throughout the country over the
reasons which caused it to be such a
merry Christmas for Grossman The
chief wonder will be whether the
Presidents advisers acquainted him
with the fact that Grossman had
served no part Of his sentence.
The foregoing is from an editorial
which appeared in Henry Ford S
Dearborn Independent. OF the thou
sands Of prisoners in the various
Jails throughout the United States,
it seems somewhat strange that such
q, pardon would be granted While
the President may plead lack Of in
formation in the case, in his case as
in az others, Ignorance of the law
excuses no man" Since 50 few par
dons We're granted no ordinary eX-

part of the President

tions were carried into the tunnel,
penetrating over so feet of water, go
feet of earth and several inches of
the steel casing of the tunnel. Fol
lowing this successful experiment, no
doubt mines will be furnished with
small receiving and transmitting
outfits. Think what it will mean
alone to caisson workers, miners,
and those who work under the wa
ter. One of the very remarkable
things about the radio is it's SIM
plicity; the quick, easy, inexpensive
manner of installation. 1t is still in
the experimental stages, and it will
take time before it's great usefulness
and possibilities are realized.
For long time the matter of a
universal language has been dis
cussed but not much headway has
been made in that direction. Since
the advent of the radio it is again
brought to light, and there are evil
dcnces that such thing will be
possible. The radio is being heard
thousands of miles, and it's range is
being extended until it will probably
be but a short time until the people
of the whole world will be living, so
to speak, in each others back yards,
so far as communication goes. How
ever, unless some universal language
is employed, much will be lost, SO
far as actual communication goes.
What satisfaction would it be to the
average person to tune up with some
foreign station and not be able to
understand a single word? Of course
in music it does not make so much
difference, since how seldom it is
anyway now that one can under
stand the words being sung, and the
musical tones sound the same no
matter what the nationality of the
singer is.

AIrnOry To BE Renaired

Word has been received that the
state is to put extensive repairs on
the armory here. A new roof is to
be put on the front part The heat
ing system is to be changed, new
toilets installed, the shower bath i'm
proved, and many other necessary
things done. Just now a campaign
is on for Wagon Company contribu
ting members, and a number of our
best citizens have already signed up
Those who join Will have all the
privileges of the armory. and the
money spent for membership fees
will go toward purchasing whatever
equipment they may see fit to
choose. With a good class of con-
tTibuting members such as are being
signed up, the armory will be put to
good use, and be made an attractive
place.

WONDERS or THE RADIO

Wonderful as the radio appeared
at the time Of its discovery, il be
comes still more wonderful as eX-
periments with it continue Recent
ly a group Of electrical experts and
some newspaper men were in the
Hudson river tunnel 90 feet below
the surface of the river and 1000
feet from an exit. While down
there they tuned in and heard con-
certs, etc. being broadcasted hun
dreds of miles away, just the same
as if they had been on the surface OF
the earth. 1t is almost beyond com
prehension TO know that the vibra-

acre. Lest we forget, the state
sends out to the smokers of the
world 500,000,000. cigars every IL
months. In regard to climate the
states northernmost city averages 5E
degrees in January and 80 in July
consequently less clothing and fueI
are needed than Ia any other state
in the union.
Florida also leads in diversity oi
food products, in variety of crops
fish, birds, flowers. trees and herbs.
1t excels in growing days. in pro-
duction of phosphate, standing tim
ber. in annual rainfall, truck crops,
camphor, sponges. in equable eli
mate, and leads all southern states
in increase of population, in value
of crops per acre, and is on the same
latitude with the land the Lord said
would flow with milk and honey. 1t
is the hunters paradise, abounding
with quail, geese, ducks and other
wild game. There are also $50 vari-
cites of nuts, fruits and vegetables,
with shipments out of the state av-
eraging one carload every six min
utes, day and night, the year round.
Property values are increasing at
the rate of several hundred per cent,
with an acute shortage of homes,
consequently Mr.. Walter C. Hardes-
ty of Akron, O., who is president of
The Priority Mortgage Co. of that
city, also having % years expert
ence in the real estate developme ent
business on an extensive scale, con-
ceiVpd the idea of buildinp q now
city on the banks of the beautiful
Halifax river, comprising 1.100
acres, 500 acres being devoted to
parks, parkways, boulevards and
home sites, the balance of the acre
age being diverted into two 18 hole
golf courses with country club in
connection, and in doing so has
created the setting and foundation
for the most beautiful residential
city in the entire country, from
coast to coast. This statement may
seem rather broad, but the facts re-
main that in the short space of time
since the beginning of operations
ten months ago, this new city of Rio
Vista has been transformed from a
jungle of tropical shrubbery into
almost the finished product. Seven
miles of streets have been laid, or
street lighting system with
wiring, bride paths for
riding, sidewalks. canoe
trails, the transplanting of thou
sands of beautiful palms, poinsettias,
moss oaks, camphor trees, along with
hundreds of semi tropical bulbs. In
fact it is city with soul, and
