he knows that the average Miami

includes the many real estate firms
which spend practically nothing in

realizes the AMOUNT of money that
this would involve if a survey were

him if it is not a fact that Miami
alone is the greatest market per

if it is not a fact that Florida has

DEFENDS FLORIDA

"There are SO many reports COM
ing to Florida of articles in the
northern papers against this state
that l feel that it is only fair to set
some people straight regarding
Florida.
clippings from the st. Peters
burg Independent give the follow
ing facts:
A great deal of propaganda an
tagonistic to Florida has appeared
in the public prints, and much of
the same character of statement is
emanating from those who may, or
may not, have ulterior motives in
it's dissemination.
This propaganda takes the form
of advice to those who contemplate
going to Florida to live and to
those who contemplate making
investments in real estate and 9TH
er business in Florida.
1t may be fairly said that the
most damaging statements about
Florida arise from some banks
which have felt the effect of the
withdrawal of deposits for the pur-
pose of investment in Florida. Very
naturally a banker does not look
with any degree of pleasure upon
the loss of deposits.
The truth is that Florida-the
last new country in the United
States-a state larger than any
other east of the Mississippi river,
with the exception of Georgia, is
building on her broad acres new
empire. This takes the form of
towns, cities, up-to-date transpor-
tation, excellent roads, splendid
public utilities, and all that is in
volved in intelligent, well balanced
progress. To finance this achieve
ment money is necessary.
From whom does it come?
1t has come, and is coming, from
every section of the United States
and from the pockets of those who
have vision to see and faith to be-
lieve that the actualities and po-
tentialities of this great state war
rant them in the investments or
the speculation" in which they in
dulge.
What happens to money spent in
Florida enterprises?
Benefits All
In the first place, much of it
never gets to Florida. This for
the simple reason that John Jones,
living in Boston, may have a piece
of property in Miami, or some
where else in Florida, which Will
liam Smith, living in Chicago, pur-
chases. The details of the trans
action may be handled through a
Florida Office, but the actual trans
fer of money is from Chicago to
Boston

AUTUMN AND MOTHER

BY Harold Baldwin Baraboo
A noble fal-leafed tree is like mother
Made beauteous by the stress Of womans years;
From graceful sapling swayed by wind and weather;
A slender, dear caprice Of Joy and tears.
To strong and straight 'gains storm of womanhood;
The peril and the pain of giving life;
The abnegation for her loved ones good;
The sheltring tree; the hepmeet, mother wife;
Till gracious tree Of families is she;
A stately lady, lovely to behold
Unselfish love has made for all to see
tree Of goodness crowned with autumns gold.

 He said:'I doubt whether Governor Hartley's plan to appoint board of educational administration is stutona So much time and labor will be required and would be impossible induce citizens of requisite quail fications to serve."
 President Suzalo added that Hartleys suggestion to abolish the levy mileage for higher institutions would be return to the biennial scramble of fourteen years ago. and argued against Governor Hareys suggestions to compel the University to repay appropriations henceforth of rental from the eacre tract Seattle when the Metropolitan lease expires or run the University with the proceeds of the bonds and pay off the bonds when the lease expired This would deprive the University of the trust fund which the Government created in giving land to the University he declared He concluded in saying that withholding appropriations from the higher insti- tutions of learning this year would leave them without the sorely needed building.
