AN IMPRESSION OF YOUTH ; ' } 4 Jady who rode in o railroad train with est a company of young people, largely girls, me days ago, reported her impression of them. In former years, she said, the more poetic Aspects $f girlhood used-to impress her. . She’ thought of mina romautie way, as budding ‘out into fine womanhood, stariding on the threshold of the world a kind of charming uncertainty, and a sweet _ maidenly reserves ‘ But now, she said she did not have that ro- ‘ic, thought about them. They impressed her s«being very strong and powerful, and perhaps litfle hard, Not hard in the moral sense, but ing something of sentiment and feeling, and ‘a, great deal of power. They lacked the ofyformer times, but it seemed as if they ’ sizong enough to do anything. O0TKat the impression was given partly by @mewhat ovisy ways, partly by their fine 4A development, té which their sturdy Ings ed pot @ little, It seemed as if they were t ne oniough to dp anything, and with such dexce ef muscular development, they did not need to-ride in automobiles much. Lh am afraidvof you,” remarked this lady. “In few years you will be running the world, and shall have to,do.as you say.” : The communinty can be very glad that the pouns people are coming up with the ability to do Hhings which this lady perceived in them, also erith so much of good physical development and } alley muscle. ‘Much of the world’s troubles in forme years has come from imperfect physical feonstitutions, But it takes something more than }mental and muscular power to fake the world run right.

This is to be @ “Florida-Takes Inventory Congresé.”| The Chamber‘ of Commerce has a commendable purpose in view. © It explains that “because Florida has operated on such a stu- pendous. seale, there is considerable misapprehen- sion both at home and abroad concerning not only | what has actually happened, but as to the, signi- Hence the wisdom cance of those happenings.” of pausing and taking time to find out where the State'“is at.” ; Floridiqn¢ realize that~much work must be done before the new Florida is fairly on an en- during basis, The State Chamber of Commerce says: “It has long been apparent to the discerning that Florida could not always ‘continue to be a land in which terminals were continually congested, where embargoes were the rule rather than the exception, where the evet-increasing hosts of visi- tors continually outran the facilities, available for their entertainment, where real’ estate prices reached new heights with each new day, where buildings were a year behind their schedule—a land counted by thousands as an°El Dorado where fortunes could be made over night without effort.” It is added that “‘so far as Plorida is concerned the gold rush is over placer mining is at an end. The future lies‘with the workers, the build- ers and the investors.”” ‘That being the: case, the State Chamber would ‘begin ‘its inventory with a census of the: real friends of the State, the devel- opers as distinct from the gamblers. Then comes list of some of the things that it'would be well to know about the outlook for the future. What is Florida’s situation financially? How. much has ac- tually been invested in biilding operations during the past three years? _WHat‘are:the building pros- pects for 1926? What are s . present transportation needs? Her: 5 Fs ssibilities? What is the best method of locating the right soit sof people on’ the right. sort pf farms?” In-what manner can Florida-best emphasize’ the fact that the future lies in the hands of’ the hoftest investor and worker-and not in the hands.of the speculat- ive plunger?“ 4 : There are other questions,of the same sort. If the State.Chamber of Commerce finds the cor- rect answers. it will have: given to-real--progress in, the Gouthern State a distinct impetus Let it be hoped that the Takes-Inventoty Gongress\ will take, it in “satisfactory, mea ayd that it will) devise means of thaking the st pi properly understood throughout the land. the Yength and breadth of ‘ATHLETE ve SUDENT * An exchange reports that a high sctiool teach-* ér in its town, in addressing ‘an organization of business men, raise d the ‘question ‘whether they. would prefer to hire an athlete or)a fine stlident. He supposed 1a case something like this: That two boys should apply for a gobi fiOhe. “egood studerit who had made over 90 per cent in school wark.- His rival was an athlete prominent in. foot- ball and basketball, who had played the game clean and true, fighting when his team was losing just the same, but this. boy had made only 80 per cent in his class } work. The question was raised, which of these boys these business mén would hire? That is a very pretty question, and you could start a high class argument over it in most any company of people. The chances are the majority vwould say they would prefer the.athlete. They would feel that he was a kind of all round fellow who had shown fine qualities of courage and man* liness. and courtesy. - : And yet a great deal could be said in behalf of the good student. He anyway had shownw power of concentration. While many of his classmates were going in for the fun of athletics, he saw the necesity of sticking to just one thing. He had de- voted himself entirely to the work which he was sent to school to do, and had niade a fine success of it, It would seem as if his chances of making a success of whatever he took up ought to be good. Both fellows in such case would no doubt come out well, and both have shown fine qualities. | Yet there are some of us who would feel that the | student had shown even more of a rapacity to stick to a hard task than the athlete, and that he had shown more of the qualities that are useful in the world.
