FLORIDA CRACKER
THOUGHT FOR TODAY

There is an old legend which
says that at twilight the angels
ring a great bell in heaven, but
only those. on earth can hear it
whose hearts are free from any
trace of envy, strife or hatred.
So then let us ponder little,
Let us look in our hearts and
see
If the twilight bells of the angels
Could ring for you and me.
SAY IT WITH FLOWERS:
Owners Of the La Concha Hotel
have for years been bedeviled by
irate guests who were angry over
being disturbed at all hours of
the night by loud conversation
on the corner opposite the hotel,
the property owned by the Due
de Richelieu of France.
Hundreds of guests have left
Key West land that's no exag-
geration), knocking the city and
advising other hundreds not to
come here; that it was impossible
to sleep in the only commercial
hotel in the city. The men who
loafed on the front step of the
building evidently had no mall
icious intention whatever of be-
ing a trouble to any one or re-
tarding business, but in a city
where SO many men are idle, it
seemed the natural and easy thing
to do to drop on the steps and Wis
it with friends.
However, the question has been
settled at last by the present oc-
cupant of the building, placing
flower boxes across the unused
part of the steps and the men
who formerly sat there have TAX
en- a kindly interest in the mat
ter, good-naturedly bringing
flower seeds and cuttings, realizing
that business must be protected

THE WHEEL THAT SoUEAKS
GETS THE GREASE: E. w. Stark,

GEIo Ik46 GH6AOE: y. w. Stafk,
local business man, recently call
ed to the attention of Everett
Russell, president of the Key
West Chamber of Commerce, the
desirability of asking the U. S.
War Department to turn over to
the National Park Service one or
more of the old forts in Key West
to be conditioned for sightseeing.
Tourists complain there is so lit
tie to see after arriving over the
highway. The old fort at St.
Augustine has meant millions of
dollars and prosperity to that
city.
If enough business men keep
putting their shoulders to the
wheel something will be accom-
plished. This writer has recent
ly been told that some effort
along these lines is already UNI
derway by Mayor Willard AL
bury and Col. j. d. MacMullen-
not for turning the forts over to
the National Park Service, but to
make them more interesting to
visitors.
It seems quite reasonable that
the National Park Service could
take over the Overseas Highway
for national parkway and save
Monroe County lot of head
aches. and being unlimited pos
sibilities of business and increas-
ed values in real estate to all
Florida. 1t is a characteristic
of the American people to love
their National Parks and thou
sands flock to them every year.
