wiped out the present mandatory

weeks ago the measure passed,
g to 2.
A tic vote also killed Louis
Carbonell's measure to prohibit
persons from walking around the
city streets clad only in pair

Der of the Planning Commission,
admitted that the practice was
Objectionable but cautioned that
the bill might stamp Key West
as "a blue law" town and might
give it bad publicity"
Commissioner Carbonell re-
sponded that Asbury Park, At
lantic City and most other resorts
require tops for wearers of shorts
without being called "blue law"
towns. Commissioner Harden
voted with him, but Mayor De-
merritt and Cooper voted in the
negative.
Carbonell cast the dissenting
vote which killed the emergency
ordinance which would have al
lowed the city to require a $50
fee for wine and beer license.
! The vote was 3 to l in favor,
unanimous vote being needed on
an emergency measure. City At

was obviously disturbed at the
failure of the bill to pass, was
authorized to draw up another
bill for regular passage as Car

Mr. Wright told how in 1910
Josephine began collecting all known
varieties of roses from England, Hol-
land and France for her English
rose garden at Malmaison. He said
her interest in roses caused France
to become one of the most important
countries in rose culture in the
world

Spring semester of my senior
year in college, was looking
around for an easy elective to
round out my schedule, and l was
persuaded, although with some
misgiving, that a two hour course
in Bacon would be a pipe. And
so it turned out to be. The pro-
fessor was painfully shy old
gent, with passion for Sir Fran
els Bacon-a passion the drowsy
students found inexplicable.
The class met first period after
lunch, and it was spring. The
scent of lilacs drifted in through
the open windows, and the pro-
fessor's voice, due to his timidity,
was a low monotone. The circum-
stances were ideal for complete
relaxation, so as soon as the roll
had been taken, we settled back
as one man into the p1easantest
lethargy imaginable. I think in
dulged in more plain and fancy
dreaming that semester, in that
class, than in all the rest of my
days to date. Dreamily, l made
plans for my future, or rather,
my futures, for in that naive and
happy day, there were thousand
worlds to look forward to, and
could choose any or all of them.
But because 1 was young, and
eager to know things, (if uncon-
ciously) occasionally into my
fancies the voice of the meek lit
tie professor intruded for mo-
ment or two, and somehow few
choice tidbits got stored away for
future reference To my amaze
ment, phrase or so from "The
Advancement of Learning" I still
remember 6. the pleasure and
delight of knowledge and learn
ing surpas all others in all
other pleasures there is safety,
and after use their verdure fades.
. :" 'But of knowledge there is
no safety" And again, {. -. the
diknity and excellence of knowl-
edge and learning are what hu-
man nature most aspires to, for
the securing of Immortality"
1t does seem a very small in
tellectual store to be gained in
half of college year, and some
time I really intend to attack
''The Advancement of Learning"
with sober intent, although even
now l don't believe I could dive
into the ''Novum Organum" with
like enthusiasm!
However there are two other
things out of that course that |
my memory clings to tenaciously. |
One is that a good many people
adhere to the theory that Sir
Francis Bacon wrote the plays
of Shakespeare, and the other,
and to me at least, somehow ex-
citing thing is that Sir Francis
Bacon came to his death in the
interests of science. He died of
