AUDIT THE BOOKS

Alderman Johnson, who seems to have good memory. remembers that an appropriation was made some time ago 10 provide for an audit of the books in City Hall. Not observing that an audit has been made, the alderman has again brought up what was once a burning issue.
 Considering that a clerk was re- moved because of the condition of the books in at least one department and there had been frequent de- mands at the time that the citys books should be audited just like the books of any private firm are audit ed it is rather remarkable that inn mediate action was not taken when the appropriation was made. The unfortunate impression is left that the main thought about the erst- while hullabaloo about the citys books was 10 remove one clerk and put in another, Such an impression should not he permitted to gain headway
 The recommendation that the audit be consummated at an early date is to be commented. The exact condition of the city's books is a matter of much public interest.
 At any rate, if the city is 10 be run on ] business like basis-which innumerable cit1zens claim should always be the case-then audit of the books once a year is imperative

FIORIDA'S MENTAL DEPRESSION

from Florida which say that the people of that state are in a dis couraged frame Of mind; that there is a financial depression; that it's agricultural life has been at a low ebb; that the advent of the Mediter- ranean fruit fly has furnished the finishing touches 10 the states hope for a prosperous fruit season; and that the general attitude of the peo- pie is spiritless. General Apathy is said to be in command, and what once was the nations greatest boom commonwealth of utter discourage ment.
 We trust the picture is not oNer- drawn, that conditions in Florida are not as evil as they are being paint ed. The record of bank failures in the state, however-1S within two weeks-would indicate a condition bordering on panic Dispatches to- day indicate even more bank fail ures.
 Since the boom there have been tornadoes; but though these laid low innumerable homes, they did not permanently submerge the spirit of the people A rapid recovery was promised. A year ago. however, there were evidences that the recovery was not progressing with the rapid ity that had been expected, when there were numerous bank failures throughout the state. Perhaps the fundamental reason at that time paralleled the reason for similar failures existing today.
 What troubles the officials of Florida sems 10 be a lack of the old time belief that in Florida lies the best future for American citi- zens. Instead of that there is a men, tai depression which causes people to withdrawn their funds from the banks-the worst possible action to take during time like the present. It denotes a lack of confidence like nothing else. And the inevitable re- suit is intensified depression.
 It is difficult 10 believe that Flor ida is as badly off as many of it's citizens seem inclined to believe. It may be that certain disappoint- ment at failure of the former boom to continue booming may be an in gredient in the general discomfiture. People who have lived during a boom are proverbially hard 10 satis- fy with normal progress; their tastes nave been spoiled for the ordinary fulfillment of effort. And perhaps, up the collapse of the boom. the tornadoes, and the influx Of the fruit pest, they have come to the conclusion that conditions arc too much to bear.
 Regardless of these manifold economical disturbances, however, Florida still has a climate and a future. And it will shave more speedy recovery from it's ills il its people are not too speedily dis couraged. Mental depression is de- featism. The will to succeed is re- qured in the present emergency A revival of that famed booster spirit which once was nine-tenths of the boom-is urgently necessary

It seems like soaring up a mares
nest to talk about superstition in

palm splitting. jumping over cracks,
and counting white horses-well. they
used to-now I suppose they count
airplanes - all seem SO unimportant
and amusing.
Yet under it all there's a big root
growing that some day may spring
up into the open. spread ominous
black branches, and shut out the SUM-
light of common sense II we don't dis

they're young.
After all, fetishism is merely reli-
gion gone wrong. It's a belief In
some power stronger than ourselves
that guides OF governs our fortunes.
How easy it would be to turn that
Unborn craving for some power higher
than ourselves toward a faith in a
spirit infinite and eternal that seeks
our good. Even though we are some-
times perplexed about the way that
good is being worked out.
But we're getting in pretty deep.
We started a simple discussion of
signs. Whether they fail in dry
weather or not, If we were honest al
most all of us would confess to one
or more fixed superstition.
Many college students, for instance,
won't shave during examination week.
