Incidentally, Sogaard broke the

got a run with Bell walking two

walking a run home.

StTessing the need of conserva-
ton and blaming civilization for
the decrease of wildlife, Earle r.
Greene, Florida Keys Refuge
manager of the National Biolog-
zeal Survey, spoke before the Ro-
tary Club at their weekly lunch
con yesterday.
Mr.. Greene pointed out that
"aS cities, towns, roads spring up
in the areas where was formerly
wildlife, that life is gradually
pushed further back. In connec-
ton with conservation Mr..
Greene read message from Sec
rotary of Agriculture Wallace.
One interesting point about the
Great White Heron Refuge on the
bay Keys, Mr., Greene said, was,
that the Wards Heron and Great
White Heron occasionally inter-,
breed and the resulting heron is
a pale gray one known as Wege-
mans Heron. ~ :
"A message from Emerson

Secretariat, pointed out that Ro-

deal about Key West from the

SEE ALL FLORIDA

Editor, The Citizen:
AS ] glanced at the Wednesday
Miami Herald. my eyes fell on an
ad.--"Stay Thru May. See All
Florida!" There was a large map
of the state with names of many
cities and pictures of products
and attractions. Immediately my
eyes ran south to find Key West.
Imagine my sorrow when / saw
only stretch of keys with the
name Overseas Highway; at a
distance fish was leaping out of
the Atlantic. The last key had
no name: it might have been No
Name Key just as well.
In certain parts of Florida some
people knock Key West directly,
and also indirectly, as in the
present case, by omission.
Though our city does not possess
advantages of more populous
places, it has some peculiar at
fractions rot found in some other
parts, e.g., a milder climate, de-
hghtful breezes all the year
round, fishing, bathing. etc. If
Key West is to advance more than
in this 1889, will depend on the
inhabitants and the pleased
tourists writing to friends, as !
do, enclosing clippings from The
Citizen and mailing C. of G.
pamphlets of our city, Also
