MOOSE COW MAKES HONE
 WITH GUIDES IN WINTER IN sKILAk LAKE REGION

For two years now a moose COW has been making her winter home in the fields adjoining the hunting lodge at Skilak, of Henry Lucas and George Nelson, licensed guides and big game hunters. So each fall now the pard- ners lay in a supply of feed, the most of it native, for the animal. The COW surprised them last fall for she came home with calf In the spring they both left and now, especially Nelson is wondering whether they will re- turn for he has become very much at tached to them. He hopes some hunt CT has not taken a shot at them for during the winter months they afford much amusement by their antics, in particular, when the phonograph is played. As many times as he has tried he has thus far been unable to lay a hand on the COW which other wise is quite tame.

can truthfully be said of the Key

GOVERNMENT
MUCH INTERESTED IN
OVER SEA HIGHWAY
TO MAINLAND

The fact that with the compile
tion of Key Vests great Over Sea
Highway to the mainland automo-
biles can be driven from every
part of the United States and
Canada clear to Key West is Great
ing much interest, not only in this
country, but in Cuba as well.
Upon his recent official visit to
Key West and other important
Florida cities, DR.. Jose Antonio
Lopez del Vale noted with much
interest that the work of build
ing the highway was progressing
at a rapid rate, and upon his re-
turn to Havana he called the mat
ter to the attention of Carlos
Miguel de Cespedes, secretary of
public works of Havana.
These Cuban officials recogniz-
ed at once the tremendous value
this highway would be to Havana
and all Cuba, and they took the
matter up with the government Of
Cuba, requesting that 4 measure
be adopted providing for special
ferries to be put IN operation
when the highway is finished, and
allowing automobiles belonging to
tourists TO enter Cuba without
special requirements. This mea-
sure win no doubt be readily
PASSED, tir&e Il Is learned through
- : zaSst that tile Cnban
government q deeply interested in
the Over Sea Highway and anxious
to give American motorists all
kinds of facilities to enter their
cars there.
So, Importance of the highway
expands. and ears from all over
Canada and all parts of the
United States may not only be
driven clear to Key West, but
they can be run right onto the
special ferries as suggested by the
Cuban officials, 60 right on to Ha-
vana and tour the entire Republic
of Cuba.
Thus Key Vests scenic road to
the mainland becomes an impor-
tant link in the longest and most
famous automobile tour in the
whole wide world at the present
time or in ages to come.

Febrpary's construction volume in
Florida amounted to s26, AL, 900,

Cured since January.
New construction started in
Florida during the first two
months of this year amounted to
$50. 900. 200. which is a 132 per
cent increase over the figure for
the corresponding period of 1925.
The building activity in Flor

Key West to Be Given Much
Consideration at National
City Planning Conference
so THIS Is HAVANA
H / Phillips 'The over' in The Boston Daily Globe

Havana is city Of parks, po-
licemen, saloons, hotels, hairless
dogs, fatigued bartenders, palm
trees, fruit juices, liquors, palaces,
cigar stores, overcrowded hotels
and erratic jitney drivers. It has
a population of 100000 going,
coming and uncertain.
Twenty-seven years ago
America helped Cuba win its
freedom. Today Cuba does q
big business, giving us demon
sfrati0ns in what il is like.
This is an island where the pad
lock is still regarded as something
used on woodsheds and spare tires
AS you land in Havana you gel
the impression it is a city where
the natives put in their time lean

lie that most of the leaning i:

The principal industry of
Havana Is supplying head
aches to visitors from the
United States. II has . Ca
pacity Of about 100000 head

Havana is the home of accom-
modating policemen. There arr
policemen everywhere, including
the barrooms. Service is then

quartet or clean your straw hat for
you while you wait.
They will do nothing but arrest
you. There is big jail on the
Prado, or Main street, but it is
practically unoccupied.
Every hotel and home has It's
patio or open garden. TO heighten
the feeling of responsibility the
hotels drape the patio with bird
cages filed with singing canaries.
The birds are taught TO sing vio.
lently with each drink ordered.
When the birds stop singing the
American visitor knows he has had
enough.
Alcoholic stimulants alone are
cheap. A glass of plain pineapple
costs You 40 cents, but you can gel
the most powerful cocktail known
to man for 20 cents.
The President's palace, the
national cemetery and Morro
Castle are about the only
places where drinks are not
served. This must be an over
sight.
Dollar bills are in circulation in
Cuba today that were spent by the
first soldiers to land here in tbs
Spanish-American War. Cubs
treasures them as sentimental
keepsakes.
That war made her what she il
today
She ought to be satisfied.
Apparently she is.

To newspaper man who ex-
pressed incredulity. the South
