Key West Citizen resents a story in a Florida. daily stating that Key West will soon be linked to America by highway. The Citizen says that although Key West is the southernmost city in the United = States it is very securely a part of the > nation.—Times-Union. ro “I'm glad it was me and not you,” «_ the first words the late Mayor Anton Cer- mak uttered after the assassin's bullet = reached its mark, will go down in history as one of the most unselfish utterances ever pronounced. The ungrammatical -sentence eloquently tells the manner . of “man he was. There is an odoriferous paternalism min Mr. Hoe s cancelling his fishing trip to help the United States get on her feet. “s Why doesn't he proceed on his way; the ~ American people have repudiated his ad- ministration at the polls, and are looking to a new leader. If a batsman whiffs the atmosphere three times and retires to the} “dugout, little attention will be paid him, j im fact guffaws will be his portion, if he at- tempts to instruct those who follow him * how to smack the old pill. BUY ON DOHERTY DAY If you neéd anything, buy it tomorrow f from those merchants who are advertising } in today’s Citizen, and in that way not only benefit yourself in taking advantage of the | bargains offered but also benefit Key West and all Florida. The reason for The Citizen’s urging residents to purchase tomorrow everything they need is because it is All Florida Doherty Day, and the merchants in Key West, as well as those throughout Florida, | have agreed to give two per cent of all | their cash sales to a fund that will be used ; in advertising all parts of Florida in news- papers and magazines of nationwide cir- eulation. The money obtained in this way will be put into a State Advertising Fund that | will be administered by a State Committee | representing all sections in Florida. That idea was evolved as a result of the great benefits that accrued to Florida by the nationwide advertising that has been conducted during the winter by Col. Henry L. Doherty. While it is true that Mr. Doherty’s properties were the ones that were bene- | fited directly, yet all Florida was helped indirectly by the added thousands of peo- ple who came to the state as a result of the Doherty publicity. Key Westers should bear in mind that Mr. Doherty owns a_ highly developed property in Monroe county, Angler’s Park on Key Largo, and that much of his adver- tising helped not only Key Largo: but also all the Florida Keys directly, because he described enthusiastically the incomparable fishing and climate on the keys. However, a still bigger idea behind the movement is the effort that is being put forth, through the, Doherty Day observ- ance, to try to revive confidence in Florida, to try to make Florida the first state in the { Union to lead the way out of the depres- sion. All of us have confidence,in Florida, but that confidence, in nearly every in- stance, is dormant. The idea of the Doherty Day observance is to reawaken that confidence, to sweep from the minds of Floridians all doubts of what the future has in store for them; to make their faith firm and their confidence expressive. So let. us all do whatever we can to ‘make Doherty, Day outstanding in Key West, and the best way to attain that end is to buy whatever we need tomorrow from terchants who are advertising in today’s Citizen, because the greater the aggregate of purchases the larger will be the sum that Key West will contribute to the State Advertising Fund. 1 DANGERS IN THE HOME Figures compiled by one of the largest insurance companies show that accidents in and about homes cause 23,000 deaths and three million injuries in the United States every year. Of these deaths about 8,000 are caused by falls; 5,400 from burns, scalds and explosions. 8,600 from asphyxiation, and 2,000 from poisoning. To avoid such accidents, the National Safety Council recommends the following precautions: Have rugs on polished floors anchor- ed or rubber-lined. Keep stairways properly lighted, free of objects on which one might stumble, with treads and hand rails in good repair. Keep sharp instruments, such as cis- sors, ice-picks, pins and needles out of reach of young children. Have all medicines, washing powders, insecticides and other household articles containing poison properly labeled and kept in a safe place. Keep all open fires screened, chim- neys cleaned, and all heating apparatus in safe condition. Never allow an automobile engine to run with the garage door closed. Keep steps and sidewalks snow and ice. The last precaution recommended by the National Safety Council to avoid acei- dents is naturally not intended for Florida, and particularly not for Key West, never even visited by frost, much less by snow and ice. clear of The world is young perennially to the young at heart.
