Cit DSRS ak Akane ee ae coe nema eT ee ae The Citizen wishes its subscribers a Merry Christmas. Tf you can’t get the kind of strong beverage you want, you have the privilege to go to the harbor and size up the port. As yet it has not been determined who wen the war, but it is now positively known who lost the war—the taxpayer every- where. When a political organization starts - to Work on the sympathies of the people or confine its public utterances mostly to berating the opposition, it is generally a safe conclusion to suppose that they have no strong arguments which they may other- wise stress. a A “blécker” in football is one who knocks aside the opposition. But every once in a while the opposition proves strong and easily comes through the “blocker.” Perhaps Mr. Rosenthal may » soor find that his strenuous “bleeking” ii the bridges matter was of no avail against a stronger opponent. Nothing could be of greater benefit to Key West than to have it designated as a free-port or free zone as congress terms it, Opposed by manufacturers the progress of the.free port idea has been slow, but it will eventually become a reality at some Amer- jean ports, of which Key West is most ideally situated particniarly for the pro- ducts of the soil to the south of the United States, A Battle Creek minister has ordered that in future there will be no collection plate passed among his congregation, be- cause it embarrassed those who were un- able to contribute, he says. If we know anything abowt human nature the collec- tions for ‘his church will drop jest about to the vanishing point, And it is our guess that the order will be recalled and collec- where the right hard may ob- the left hand is shelling out.

Don’t set up the tree so that it can topple over easily and don’t place it nea: heating or lighting fixtures. Don’t use lighted candles on trees. Don’t use paper, cotton or celluloid ornaments. Incombustible trimmings may now be purchased. Don't allow smoking near Christmas trees. Don’t permit paper to accumulate. Don’t be careless in the use of elec- triea) equipment or in extending wiring. Don’t give small children dangerous toys—such as those requiring alcohol, kerosene or gasoline. ‘ Don’t permit use of nitrocellulose film in home motion picture machines. This is dangerous because it is extremely inflam- mabie and, in burning, releases fumes causing death. Use only “safety” film known as acetate film. Don't neglect to keep handy some- thing with which to put out the fire that does happen te start. Don’t keep the Christmas tree up after December Sist. It becomes dried out after a very few days in the house. OI) PEOPLE’S FORUM “HER MAD nicer Twenty-six states are represent- ed in the hotel registrations in Key West today.

A fearful and wonderful time seems to be in store for the country if it becomes necessary to call a session of the congress elected last November at the outset of the administration of President Roosevelt. The enormous democratic majority in iteelf would be a real danger, but when to the difficulty of controlling this unwieldy majority is added the task of educating a considerable number of iegistators in the work of the government, some idea of the situation can be realized. The great majority of the members of the congress who are entering on their first legislative experience at Washington will have no mean opinion of themselves. They will feel that they have been selected by the people to save the country. And most of them will have their own ideas of how it is to be saved.

Because of Chelo Castillo’s ap- pearance the Pirates are looked upon with much favor to win the first game.
