CAR LICENSES
INCREASE HERE
1897 Applications for Licenst
Plates in 1888 Compared
With 1852 Last Year.

cense plates were made at the Office
of the local deputy registrar during the

with 1852 during the same period last
year These figures include applica-
tons for passenger car, truck, trailer
and motorcycle licenses.
The increase for the first half of this
year over the same period a year age
is accounted for by the large number

Helps Himself to s
Cubs, Gets Bounty

Graceville- Finding himself a little
short of funds one day, Herman Hill
man, who lives east of here, went out
and dug himself 48O0-dug it right out
of a hole in the ground. Sighting a
wolf feeding within block of his home
Hillman, with his son, Clarence, kept
an eye on it as it went its way. Lying
back about a half mile the two fol-
lowed the wolf more than a mile to the
bed Of Otrey lake where she loitered
around for some time and where they
were certain she had her young. Armed
with only spade, Hillman came upon
the den on the banks of the lake bed.
The two dug up 8 cub VOLTS which
brought a county bounty of $4,000. The
den was about 214 feet beneath the
ground and nearly six feet long. The
bounty was the largest paid by the
county in many years.

AS Key West advances toward her

things. it becomes more and more apparent
some mistakes, both Of omission and com
mission, have been made by our political
leaders during the last few years. They
have failed to do some Of the things they
hould have done and have done some
things hey should have failed to do. The
result is in some directions, Key West is
rot fully prepared to take advantage OF
her golden opportunity While this is a
regrc.tabie situation, no great blame at
this time should be attached 70 any one

The thing to do is rectify certain con
ditions. A crying demand is for a vail

provisions Of that ordinance. When this is

Hughes was fundamentally an
iconoclast in Hollywood because he

make them, regardless of criticism,

Characteristic of his individuality
and his audaciousness, which bewild-

Fights Censorship.
1.-THE Racket" was a daring and
faithful celluloid Interpretation of
graft and corruption rampant in
many American cities as a result of
prohibition conditions. 1t was realistic
convincing, and rang true throughout.
1t was not patterned according to
sterotyped formula-in fact, it was
almost entirely devoid of love inter-
est But it carried terrific wallop.
1t treaded on the toes of politicians
at a time just prior to the national
presidential election when the wet and
dry issue was paramount.
So when various censor boards
throughout the country began mu
tilating and censoring "The Racket"
Howard Hughes put on. his fighting
clothes and took action which few,
if any other producers, would have
dared to do He took issue with the
censorship in every state in which
his picture was molested. He mar
shaded his legal talent and prepared
to take court action, where necessary,
to show the picture. "The Racket" en-
joyed wide popularity.

Returning from yachting cruise
in south Atlantic waters Hughes de-
clared an organized conspiracy existed
to suppress ''Scarface'' because it
told the truth about the gangster
menace in New York, Chicago and
other metropolitan centers." He ac-
cused censor boards which banned it
of political motives and contended
! there was nothing of legally objec-
tionable nature in the picture.
"Scarface" was held up for long
time. Finally Hughes crashed thro-
ugh all criticism, defied all censor
boards, and released the picture. 1t
was a sensation. It made money.
About this time he met Frances
Drake, another beautiful Hollywood
actress who had verve and vivacity
that Hughes admired Her hobbies
were riding, singing and the reading
of biographies The ambitious and
studious young Hughes admired her
poise and polish and for nearly a year
theirs was one of the romances that
kept Hollywood circles alert for
news of an elopement and marriage.

beauty. While Hughes is in New
York he telephones her every night

her for 80 or 40 minutes. In addition,
he sends plenty of kilograms"
But Hughes interest was turning
more and more to aviation, and the
dream of world conquest by plane.
His romance with Miss Drake ter
minated.
Later Hughes name was linked
with that of Barbara Pepper and nu-
merous other Hollywood beauties, in

I stand within my window space
And look across the town,
Each cot or mansion stirs its fire
AS dusk comes shyly down.
I watch the feathery trails of
smoke
Tip-toeing in the blue
A black smudge caught in a
windy flare
That bright red sparks fly
through.
A pink-tipped smoke goes sailing
high
To meet the first pale star,
And one bursts out in silvery
strands
Like ravelllngS flung afar.
I like to watch the chimney's
smoke
Soft winging through the air;
AS twilight dims the earth and
sky,
A supper signals there.

Accent on Heels
In Spring Styles

Some like them high and some
like them low but the accent is
on heels as far as the latest
shoe styles are concerned. In
many of the new spring models,
designers have minimized the
apparent size of the shoe by
concentrating on the heel. In
fact, they seem to have used
sleight If hand to make the
modern woman slight of foot.
Today's most revolutionary
heel news is the introduction of
the foot-flattering clog with a
heel variation that extends
below the instep to join the sole
of the shoe, thus producing an
entirely flat walking surface
from toe to heel. Combining an
unusually attractive appearance
with comfort, light weight, and
a sense of security, this heel
has been adapted to the smartest
footwear for sports, street wear,
and formal occasions.

Comfort GiUen
BIZ Beauty Set

Beauty for your baby Is pro-
vided in a set consisting of a
cream, a talcum and cotton in
plaskon jars, beautifully boxed
and ribboned. The maker is
known for the purity and quality
of her products and eminent
physicians say this baby cream
and baby tale are perfect.
UNUSUAL CREAM
You have but to rub a tiny
bit of this baby cream on the
back of your hand to realize
that here is a most unusual
product. 1t is rich, yet it imme-
diately disappears into the skin
leaving no trace of sickness but
a delightful, Soothed, fabricated
feeling. The tale is fine, fresh
smelling, but contains no heavy
perfume that sometimes works
a hardship on tender baby skin.
Each dainty container is
sealed with cellophane that can
be easily broken to release the
contents. This beauty set comes
in two colors: blue for boys and
pink for girls.
And when baby has been
creamed and powdered you have
but to press the tiny button on
the back of the jar for it to
chirp like a bird, and baby will
forget all diSpleasures.

the news of the plans for the
ceremony, which they are to at
tend, and then the plans for the
informal reception.
LOVLIEST CLOTH
If possible, use your dining
table for the buffet service, and
use your very loveliest cloth,
lace or simulated lace, say. If
there isn't to be a brides table,
YOU might use the wedding cake
as a dramatic and gala center
piece. At one end of the table
is the coffee service, appropriate
for an evening party. Try to ar
range your table so that there
will be an interesting balance
of serving dishes. There should
be piles of plates, with napkins
on them: cups and saucers and
spoons for the coffee-servlce;
the necessary silver pieces, per-
haps arranged in rows, if there
is room. The platters and bowls
containing the foods, with the
serving spoons and forks, should
be placed on the table. Rolls,
split and buttered and heated,
should be in a covered dish.
Your dessert may well be the
centerpiece-cake (cut by the
bride) and ice cream.

be inappropriate to have the in

Accepted Style

Chunky metal clips and pearl
necklaces are among the few
concessions to the vogue for
glamour made by smartly-
dressed college girls for campus
wear. Colored sweaters, tweed or
corduroy skirts, and classic OK
fordS with low built-up heels
are still the accepted campus
classics.
