December came in Sunday
morning like lamb-warm balmy
breezes, and a temperature around
sixty, induced the man of the
house to shed his jacket and work
around the yard in his shirt
sleeves. He brought in pansies
and snapdragons fresh from the
garden for the breakfast table.
BY nightfall their brothers and
sisters were frozen stiff in the cold
wind which blew snow fiurries be-
fore it, and made a fur coat feel
good. A drop of 38 degrees in
temperature in "a hours made us
realize on Monday that December
was really a winter month.
We have had a wonderful sea-
son. On Thanksgiving Day tne
garden was plowed so that vege-
tables may get an early start next
spring. We ate the last of the
Il ttuce then too. Late cabbage is
headed in beside the flower gar
den; cabbage plants are tucked
into the peony bed all ready to be
planted out in the spring and
winter onions are growing in fence
! corners. The flowers are all
asleep--not even dead top is
there to mark the spot where so
much color was showing so short
time ago. Indoors we continual
ly pick up friend husbands seed
catalogues and long for spring.
Perhaps it was the suddeness
with which the new Republican
Commissioners swept into Office on
Saturday that caused the wind
velocity and change in weather.

In Four Cities
tBy Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-The cot
ton exchange here announced to-
day, five minutes before it was
due to be opened, that it had sus-
pended business for the day.
Reports, shortly afterward,
were received from Chicago,
Houston and New Orleans, that
the cotton exchanges in those cit
les had also been closed.
No explanations were given for
the action. Comment was that
the volume of trade in cotton had
been so extensive during the last
two weeks, the exchanges were
closed to afford time to complete
transactions in cotton during that
period. Unofficially, it was stat
ed the exchanges will be reopen
ed Monday.

Volunteer Police
Hear FBI Man;
Visits PAL Club

Members of the volunteer po-
lice force at Poinciana were
sticking out their chests in right
full pride today. The police
sponsored PAL organization, pro-
viding recreational facilities fol-
some 200 children, has just been
inspected by a Special Agent
of the Federal Bureau of In
vestigation, and drew his UNI
qualified praise.
The agent was impressed with
the gymnasium and other facil-
tiles for the youngsters that he
offered to have the FBI send
movies for the children on crime
prevention and other subjects
from Miami.
He noted how effective the
PAL organization is as a deter
rent to juvenile delinquency.
Although only six months in
existence the PAL club at Poin-
ciana has approximately 200
members or one quarter of all
PAL members m the city. t.-s-.
Prior to his inspection the agent
addressed the Poinciana special
policemen and discussed the
question of handling veterans
with whom the police might
have occasion to deal. 1t was
his belief that in some cases
the individual might be a psyche
neurotie| - =. ~. ~ &. !. = :
He said that most such cases
were usually tough physically
and should be approached with
caution. He described instances
in which this principle had been
disregarded and severe injury
had been inflicted by the veteran.
(Of the nine men and one wo-
man who comprise the Polnciana
volunteer force, three are vet
erans).
The FBI man was impressed
with the work of the POinclana
police, all of whom act without
compensation, often on patrol or
other duty, from 1880 to ll:3O
D. m. Those present were Capt.
z H White of the city police;
