It is declared that daycers make the best auto- mobile drivers “because of the cultivated instinct for easy and rapid changes of direction.” The same accomplishment ought to help pedestrians a lot, too. TAGGING CARS (Tampa Tribune) And now it is held in Georgia that placed by a policeman on a car does not constitute a legal summons to appearance in court. The prac- tice has been indulged in by the traffic police of Macon, and the public, according to the Macon newspapers, is ignoring them. As soon as it de- veloped that they were not legal summons, the mo- torists who find them on their cars merely tear | “The little green slips are | a fiction that is bringing the police power into | them up and drive on. more or less contempt,” says the Macon News. No one has made a test of the practice in Tampa, but it is doubtless here, as in Georgia, that | the tags have no legal standing or authority. BETTER KEEP THIS MAN Johannes Tielle, a young Hollander who came to America as a sailor and neglected to go back on board his ship, was rounded up by the immigra- tion authorities and ordered deported While loafing around the Battery in New York | the time for his departure from these shores, Tielle saw a man and a woman struggling The woman had tried to commit suicide and the man was trying to awaiting in the water some distance away reseue her, without success. Tielle promptly jump ed in and saved them both. It is said that the order of deportation may be revoked because of Tielle’s heroism, if a way can be found to overcome'the red tape which is en twined with such a proceeding. It would be pleasing if Ticlle might be allow ed te America, It would not be tay in urprising if he should make a pretty fair sort “WeorPad better keep him, a tag: THE NATIONAL MEMORIAL DAY Next Monday the time comes around‘again for us to honor the brave men who fought in the Civil war. country wide open in that eruel conflict is now al- most forgotten, but the country will never forget | the | that | Equal self sacrifice and grandeur of de- | who offered themselves to settle that the men ‘fundamental questions struggle. brought on The terrible line of cleavage that split our | THE KEY WEST CITIZEN POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS Soeceeccoscscoosceeseles FOR STATE SENATE 24th District FRANK H.

Else | this editorial might have been written the last week of April instead of the last week in May. Thus the halting of Natur this year there is a lesson for Key West well worth while. Scientists assert the changing; the rest of the people say they are. If Spring is a month late in the North it may behoove Key West to carry its winter season along in cycle seasons are another month into the period of heretofore ac- | cepted inactivity; to plan an advertising program that will last a month longer at least, if not all the year; to keep the publicity representatives at work | at the information booth on Trumbo to a still later | day; to extend the live wire work of the winter through an added four weeks. Let us give this matter due and careful con- sideration. Let Key West not lag in works. Things are happening here every day that make for progress.

We have ridiculed the wordy effusions of Senators and Representatives, remarks in print for the home cohsumption of their constituents. We often laugh at them, but less fre- who extend their quently laugh with them. Occasionally, however, there appears in the Record some real wit and humor, if the reader will dig it out from the mass of uninteresting mat- ter. Congressman Carter of Oklahoma, in a discus of farm relief ' bills. Replying to the suggestion that the farmer should “borrow money from the banks to carry over his surplus,” Mr. Carter said: “T imagine that will remind the already debt- ridden farmer of the young man who was seeking the hand of a girl in marriage, and when he popped the question to her she replied: ‘You must go to father.’ The disconsolate young, man then reeled | off the following rhyme: “She knew that I knew her father was dead; “She knew that I knew what a life he had led; “She knew that I knew what she means when she said, ““*Go to father’.” “WOMEN AS NEWS” The above fruitful theme was discussed at the General Federation of Women’s Clubs convention recently held at Atlantic City. In former years many editors thought that about all they had to do with women was to get out pages of cooking Then all at once they discovered that women were making a receipts, fashions, household hints, etc. whole lot of real news.” So the reporters began to chase around to the women's clubs and elsewhere, and they found ywomen poking their heads into every subject on earth. The; in polities, doing the real work that found them exercising their influence many business enterprises go, and carry prizes. that the While some may think chief feature of women as news lies in their ability at times to crea endal, the stor; in the field of legitim tercst by achievew ple like. not | An instance’ is noted in a recent sally by | ion i |FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER First District BOLIVAR T.

COSTAR, Ag THAT LITTLE BLACK BOX’ IN YOUR HOME .- .- - Do you ever think of your gas meter as an open book in which your account with this company is kept? That is exactly what it is. It is placed in your home so that you may check the amount of your pur- chase of gas.and keep track of any increase or decrease in the use of this household neceSsity. Read your meter yourself and be convinced that you are getting what you pay for. It is easy to do if you follow these instructions: Ge* from you last bill the date on which your meter was read the last tin reader cails, look at First—Ignore the small dial at the top. On the same day of the current month, or the day the meter your meter dials and do three things: It is used only in tests. Second—Reading from left to right, put down the smaller of the two figures next to the hand on each large dial. above these are 516. On the dials shown Third—Add two ciphers to the figures taken from the dial (which makes in this case 51600) and from these figures substract last month's meter reading as shown on your last gas bill. The result will be the cubic feet of gas used during the month.
