THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS OF THE TWENTY.FOURTH SENATORIAL DISTRICT OF FLORIDA I wish to announce my candi- dacy for re-election to the Flor- ida State Senate from the Twen- ty-fourth district, subject to the tie primary. There will be a number of matters of vital importance to this District, and particularly to Mon- roe County, in the 1927 session of the Legislature. The bound+ aries of the City of Key West will have to be changed to inelude the Florida East Coast Railway terminals. The ten year contract will expire with the 1927 session. T am a party to the contract ex- eluding the terminals from the City in consideration of the con- struction of the Casa Marina ho- tel in 1917. I very much desire to personally see that these} terminals are reincluded in the City limits. No one has in the slightest degree intimated opposi- tion to the terminals being rein- corporated in the City, neverthe- * Jess if T am reelected to the Sen- ate I pledge that the terminals will be placed back within the cor- porate limits of the City of Key West. My long service in the Senate qualifies me for efficient service. Dering the campaign I will make further declarations of which shall govern me in the Sén- ate. I solicit the support of the oe voters of this Dis- t. WILLIAM H. MALONE. (Paid Political Advt.) We loose—you gain when you change that fan.

Tt will remain about two weeks before resuming its flight to Spitabergen whence’ it: will start for the Arctic. The ship left} Rome last Saturday. When it; failed to appear at Trotsk early yesterday a squadron of Soviet airplanes flew out in an endeavor ‘to find it. ‘The futility of efforts to establish radio communication with the Norge and the unfavor- able meteorological conditions caused some anxiety for her safe- ty. At one time the airship was far out of het course over the Baltic sea. The ship arrived at Trotsk at/ p.m, No County Prisoners | Are Employed la Work | of Installing Lights: There were no county prisoners | employed in the work in connec- tion with the installation of the| white way system at the coanty| court house square as was stated! in The Citizen yesterday. | All of this work was carried on by employed forces engaged by} the county. | Captain Robert Dollar, whose | shipping interests are the largest | conducted under the American} flag, began his career as a laborer} in a lumber camp. i } | | Reference: First National Rank, Chamber of Commerce G C.

The clay contains iron, and the color of the brick depends almost entirely upon the proportion of iron, present. Clays containing less than one or one and a half per cent of iron change in the kiln to various shades of cream color and buff, while those cor- taining more than twe per cent of iron range in color from yellow- ish fawn to dark red.
