The most significant period of the
Christian year is Holy Week, the week BE-
fore Easter, beginning with Palm Sunday
Palm Sunday celebrates Christ S
triumphal entry into Jerusalem and the
strewing of palm branches in his path by
the multitude.
Maundy Thursday commentaries the
Last Supper and the washing of the dis
ciples' feet; also Christ's agony in Geth-
semane and his betrayal by Judas.
Good Friday represents the day of
the crucifixion and is celebrated meath
olic and Anglican churches with great
solemnity.
Easter Even is the name given to the
entire day of twenty-four hours between
Good Friday and Easter, a. period for
prayer and religious contemplation.
Easter Sunday, the most Joyous day
of the Christian calendar, commentaries
the resurrection, and this year falls bn
March %. In the early history of the
church, Easter was observed on various
dates by different bodies of Christians, but

equinox, March FL.
Easter Sunday may come as early as

date governs all ecclesiastical days from
Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent,
to Trinity Sunday, eight weeks after
Easter.

is rank disregard for law in the
United States: that the United States
is faced with new civil war.
Upon reading this. many Americans
will recall Sinclair Lewis novel 1T
Can't Happen Here" and will wonder
If. after ALL 1T can happen here
much as Mr.. Lewis so vividly de-
scribed in his bitter novel.
1t is often said and doubtless with
much truth. that the majority of the
people in any nation ordinarily are
not aware of the major events which
lead them into a civil uprising.
With increasing frequency. however.
thoughtful and intelligent people IN
this country are voicing the thought
that forces have been set in motion
which will not be stopped until we
have passed through a most serious
crisis. possibly even a civil war. All
right-minded people fervently hope
that this IS an Illusion which will
pass away IN due time. On the other
hand, one cannot be accused of undue
partisanship if he al least considers
the ominous possibilities.
Perhaps one of the best approaches
20 these possibilities is to contemplate
what might have been our present sit

country had been told something like
the following:

zoNING-A KEY WEST NEED

among the many lnulcaLlOnS Lnat
Key West is emerging into new era of
growth and higher standard of culture,
the revival of an interest in coming, a
modern feature of city development which
for the past Is years has been advocated
by The Citizen, is one of the most inn
portant ~ Nv I
Zoning is not merely. an appeal ato
the esthetic sense; it is a very practical aid
in the development of the commerce of
the city. 81
1t is by no means mere chance that
we find in the great cities of both con-
tinents, that various businesses have zoned,
or segregated themselves of their own ac-
cord and for their own advantage. The
dealer in automobiles and the dealer in
furs or in perishable foods, alike find that
convenience and profit follow upon their
location in district in which other deal
ers in the same products have gathered.
There is no argument quite so con-
vincing as an array of facts, and the facts
show that these leading merchants whose
natural talent for trade has been sharpen
ed in the keenest of competitive condi-
tions, have registered their convictions on
the question of segregation, or trade dis
tricts, by their investment in locations so
situated a
1t is no less true that different types
of homes should be, as much as possible,
grouped together; and no city is making
the most of its advantages which does not
recognize this fact.
The two or three room cottage, of the
picturesque and even beautiful, with home
raised flowers growing in the most casual
of containers, and hospitable to all the
neighborhood traffic that arises among
neighbors with like purposes in life, is
forlorn blemish on the picture when
wedged in between two imposing resi-
dences. And, nothing would quite so GER
tainly prevent the erection of a stately
residence" as the knowledge that a very
unpretentious home would be its prob
able next-door neighbor.
City Council and those forward
looking members of the community, who
have at last decided to undertake an ex-
acting and difficult task in considering our
zoning problem, will have earned the
gratitude of future residents of Key West.
whether their part in the work is remem-
bered or not.
They are directing the thought of the
city into the possibility of an orderly and
acceptable development that will appeal
to the prospective investor as well as to
every resident who has the welfare of Key
West at heart.
When they have succeeded in estab-
fishing series of districts in our city,
each one adapted to its particular interests
and a harmonious unity in its pursuits,
Key West will have added to its other adj
vantages an outstanding feature of prac-
teal and esthehc value which will mean
more in dollars and cents than we can
compute-and value that can not be
measured in terms of dollars and cents.

feat. She knew some paleface tricks as well as Indian, wiles, and sne meant to use them.
 The very decorous maner in which Mary Melissa. now sought to gam Bob's personal approval did not l,,ccne Honey Bees notice. Why should a white girl, miles from civil- izatiofi, spend half an hour on her personal toilet each morning, and again before. each evening meal? What mattered it, on a rough out door expedition, if ones hair were not curled and set exactly right? Or if ones rouge were, not applied per- fectly, and ones clothes meticulous- ly dainty and clean?
 Honey Bee Girl, however. came from a race whose dominant char acteristic is patience:
 e+%
 lt sSS
 She watched her chance to catch Scott Hoffman alone, at some d1s- tance from the camp, She came quickly to the point, as usual in her conversations. f
 "You want to make money" she suggested, scowling, but not looking directly in his eyes.
 "Why--yeah. Don't everybody? Whats eatin' you, woman?" Holli- man was also rnatter-of-fact.
 T know more about thee Indian caves" Honey Bees speech had its brogue. Thee white man, in thee big cities, they pay for what l know"
 "That so? Hows that?"
 T can show you many fine jar. Many big ollas, pots and things. In cave. Not broke. Worth many dol lars. Some with thee horse design. You know?"
 Hoffman knew. Most outdoors men do, in the Southwest. An ail-' cient pot, from some prehistoric ruin, is likely to be worth $l00 or more as a museum piece. A horse design used in ornamenting water jars and grain storage jars, would more likely be worth $l,000.
 Horses were not native to this continent. They were brought here by the first Spaniards. Horse pat terms painted on walls of prehistoric ruins probably are due to Spanish invasion, as at Canyon de Chelly or Canyon del Muerto, Arizona, far to the north of Defiance Castle. But horse patterns on still earlier relics, especially on pottery pieces, might indicate descent from or communi- cation with Asia. Each such piece would tend to strengthen the theory that America was populated first by Asiatics, hence each such piece was of high value. Hoffman knew that.
 "Jars with horses on 'em? Whole jars?"
 Honey Bee nodded.
 "All right, I'll bite. What you want?'
 '"You. make thee love, try marry thee white woman?"
 "Hunh?" Hoffman was shocked with surprise.
 "You make thee love, Miss Lane. Keep her away from Bamb. show you thee cave with horse jars"
 It was sort of fantastic, funny even, this strange proposition. But Holliman got the point. He pushed his eaoppy 1o-gallon hat back on
