You do not realize that there
are two Miamis until you read The
Miami Times and The Tropical
Dispatch.
These two sepia weeklies cover
ably, the news of Colored Miami.
The Times is tabloid, featuring
twelve pages of mixed news and
columns by Negro writer's, reveal
ing another side, the clark s:de'
of Miami's social life.
Here you may find, in Rev.
ThompsOn's column, "The Moving
Finger,'' allusion to the brave
black troops who fought at San
Juan Hill, the Twenty-fourth
Regiment, nicknamed the ''smok-
ed Yankees"
There are also columns on
."Afro Activities" Nassau News
and the colored Winchens slime
o'type." 1t is a forward-looking
paper and its motto is ''The times
are changed and we are changed
with them"
The Tropical Dispatch features
a column OF Key West news by
Kenneth Newbold. The Dispatch
runs to eight pages, well illustrat-
ed. with co,ored social news such
as a list of ''the thirteen best
dressed young men in the City of
Miami"
II also notes, under a flash
head, that "Lester Boggis and
Miss Leila Delaware, middle
aisled." A Winchellian touch.
Both of these papers do credit
to the men and women they serve.
Their attitude is clean ard pro-
gressive. We sometimes forget
the other Miami, that centers
about North West Third Avenue.
An interesting world, fully as
alert and human as our own, yet
unknown to most of US.

Automobile Finds New Parking
Place-On Arthur Hanft's
Front Porch

Being awakened from ones slumbers
by commotion and finding that an au-
tomobile was parked on your front
porch would be rather unusual, but
that is what happened at the home Of
Arthur Hanft, Oak street, last Satur-
day night.
Mr.. Hanft was awakened about mid
night by a crash in front of his home.
He looked out an upper window and
saw number of people congregating.
Upon investigating he found Jewett
automobile on his front porch. In get
ting there, however, it damaged a
cement wall, knocked out two large
porch posts and made a hole in the
Notwithstanding of the building.
Immediately prior to the awakening
of Mr.. Hanft and members Of his
household the Jewett car had collided
with an automobile driven by Noah
Gnegy, of Mountain Lake Park. The
Jewett car wos owned by Artie Lewis,
of White Oak, near Terra Alta, w. Va,
and was being driven by a man named
Bogar. Immediately following the
crash Bogar fled.
Mr.. Lewis sent workmen to the
Hanft home on Monday who repaired
all damage to the structure and paid
for the damage done to the wall.

Citizens Almost Wishing For
Cold Spell

Oakland residents, recalling that
they were virtually buried under snow
this time last year, began wishing
that such weather might be more
evenly distributed.
It has been so spring-like for the
past week or more that many home
owners are having difficulty in keep
ing their residences cool enough and
still maintain fire in their furnaces.
At night they are down to the conven-
tional sheet and one blanket that they
use during their slumbers on summer
nights.
Some citizens are blaming the sum-
mer-like weather with the prevalence
of common colds, tonsilitis, sore
throat, grippe and influenza. They
feel that a real cold spell would be a
welcome relief and a tonic to health.
A resident this morning stated
that twenty-five years ago today the
thermometer registered 40 degrees
below zero. Today the temperature
was over the 80 mark.

PROSPECTS BRIGHT FOR
GOLF COURSE ERECTION
Health Officer Says There Would
be no Danger to Water Supply;
WPA Funds To Be Used
IA MORE ACRES BOUGHT

Oakland's prospects of having
golf course appear brighter this week
following two special meetings of the
Mayor and Town Council and a dis
cussion of plans with James Spencer,
golf pro from Kingwood, w. Va.
Mr.. Spencer said the site was ideal
and that the construction of the course
would not be especially difficult. At a
special meeting of the Mayor and
Town Council on Monday evening it
was decided to purchase fourteen addi-
tional acres of ground adjoining the
water farm. This makes total of
65 acres and would be ample for the
course. The acreage was in the vicinity
of one of the town wells and should
have been purchased long ago to safe
guard the health of the people, mem
bers of Council stated. The purchase
price was $1,000.
After an inspection of the ground
on Tuesday afternoon DR.. E. C. Peck,
health officer, stated that the con-
struction of golf course would not
endanger Oakland's water supply and
wrote a letter to the State Depart
ment of Health asking that the district
engineer officially notify the Town
Council to proceed with their plans
in so far as the health department
was concerned. The official sanction
of the health department was one of
the barriers to the project last week.
The plan is to build a nine-hole
course on the property, using WPA
funds, and Harry Tarring, head of the
WPA here, is anxious to get work
underway. Mr.. Tarring and Mr.. Spen-
Ger spent Tuesday afternoon inspect
ing the site. Estimates as to the cost
of construction vary. Some place the
cost as low as $500 per hole, while
others estimate that the cost will range
in the neighborhood of 81 900 per hole.
With the WPA furnishing all the
labor and ten percent Of the material
the cost to the town and those interest
ed in the project is not expected to be
excessive, and numerous citizens are
urging Council to proceed. A petition
signed by hundred or more and urg-
ixg favorable action on the project
was received by Council at its meet
ing recently.
1t is felt by the petitioners that the
construction of a golf course would
be distinct asset to the town and a
permanent drawing card for summer
tourists.
