She wanted not to talk at all, just

If David didn't know what par

with questions, by accepting her
sudden decision as if it were the

/ Key West is expected to set a
new record when the voters go to
the polls next Tuesday, by polling
the biggest percentage of ballots
ever cast. With 1920 voters reg
istered, it is expected that the
biggest vote cast in this city in
many years will result. For despite
the fact that registration is not
quite so large as in 1921, the vote
will doubtless run ahead of that
of six years ego, city and county
officials predict. 1t is forecast
that at least $500 of the quail
fled voters will cast their ballots,
while in 1921 with 4,700 regis
tered, but $500 cast their ballots.
The record breaking vote will be
due in large measure to the
fact, it is said, that there is an
unprecedented number of candi-
dates in the race, 63 for the 10
vacancies. Two years ago there
were only 20 candidates.
| R. P. White, one of the Oldest
of the railway clerks in the Flor

Fort Pierce. After taking his
breakfast he went back to the car
where he sleeps, when he collaps-
ed, and died Immediately, while
removing his clothing. For IL
years Mr.. White had been running
to this city and was Familiarity

started running to this city with
the completion of the Key West
extension in 1912.

the lids dropped. She felt drowsy,
and relaxed, and yes, contented.

His presence was comfort, and

"Tm used to it," said David air

"Other girls?" asked Nina. Sud-
denly she began to wonder about
David, with little prickling feel
ing that was almost jealousy. How
many girls had been in love with
him? Was there anyone in love
with him now? There must be, she
decided. Any sane, we'll balanced,
sensible girl would be crazy about
David, with his bright, crazy hair,
his irrepressible humor, his sweet
ness.

Nina did feel hungry. She must

David, "and the menu seems to

hamburger and a cup of coffee"
She tried to imagine Richard
there, sitting beside her, lifting
the heavy white coffee mug to his
lips, opening the roll and dipping
IN relish with a wooden spoon. Il
was ludicrous. But she mustn't
laugh or David would want TO
know the joke. But then the whole
situation was funny, and she
mustn't think of il, anymore.

Although data are not yet COM
plete, definite information Is avail
able which shows that Connecticut's
new marriage law, effected just a
year ago and requiring a premari-
tai blood test, Is an important bar
rier in protecting against spread OF
syphilis, according to DR.. Henry p.
Talbot, director of the bureau OF
venereal diseases Of the state depart
ment of health in the departments
weekly broadcast today.
Because neighboring states at the
present time do not require the pre-
marital blood test for syphilis some
couples have gone out Of the state
to get married, but DR.. Talbot point
ed out that a great part Of the de-
crease in the marriage rate in Con-
necticut during 1888, compared with
former years, has been due to the
marriage Of fewer out-of-state resi-
dents in this state. In former years
these individuals came into this
state to be married, since previously
Connecticut had been noted for the
Cdoc WIFI WIllCIl u IlldL
might be obtained.
Important Barrier
Some data are now available
which show that the premarital blood
test is an important BARRED against
the spread of syphilis, DR.. Talbot
declared. The data are as yet in
complete, but definite information
has been obtained ON about SO posi-
tive cases of syphilis among individ-
uals who intended to be married.
The importance of this examination
Is shown by the fact that in only
rare instances did individuals know
they were infested with this dis
ease. OF this group upon whom
diagnosis of syphilis had been made,
the majority denied any knowledge
of being infected. In other words,
it Is safe to estimate that 90 per cent
of the individuals upon whom
positive diagnosis was made had no
knowledge Of having syphilis until
the blod test in compliance with the
marriage law revealed this fact.
Were It not for this examination,
many of these individuals would
have passed syphilis along to their
marital partners as vel las to their
offspring, but, having this diagno-
sis made early, adequate treatment
will not only prevent further spread
of this disease, but will arrest or cure
the majority of cases.
