C, train, carry- ing the reforestation contingent away from Key West Tuesday aft- ernoon, rolled out of the station a mother of one of the boys was heard to remark: “I wonder what the boys are going to have for supper.” The Citizen is informing that rmother and all other mothers that the boys had a supper as sump- tuous as the dining car service of the F. E. C. railway company can prepare, and this is how it came about: One of the passengers on the train asked Conductor Pacetti: “What provisions have been made for supper for the 27 young men, who are going to the reforesta- tion camp?” Conductor Pacetti replied he did not know but would find out. Making inquiries he was told that the young men had been ad- vised to eat before leaving or carry a lunch. They would . be given breakfast in Jacksonville the| Wext morning, This didnot suit the passenger, who told the conductor to go back. and tell the Key West’. aggrega- tion to come into the dining car and_be his guests, The 21 white boys were told by the conductor of the- invitation and. went. to the diner. The host asked for the colored contingent of six and was informed that ‘it ‘was not understood he was invit- ing the colored boys. i Dr, J. N. Fogarty, for he it was ‘who extended the invitation, re- plied “they are all my folks like all other Key Westers and tell them to come also and we'll all have a real supper,” With his 27 supper guests from Key West, the doctor enjoyed every minute of the time they were at supper and that his guests were happy goes without saying. { | | GOT PART OF HER BELFAST—When Miss Olive Luttin of this city refused © to marry John Betts he cut off her | hair and was sent to jail, Legislature On Closing Day Votes To Turn Over Beer Revenue To Schools (fy Associated Press) TALLAHASSEE, With clocks stopped, the house end senate today awaited a re- port from the conference June 2.— mittees which are trying to iron! the; out «differences between houses on the biennial appropria- tions bill, public debt funding be charged by county officers.

Agreement also is reflected iffs, but the free trade countries SCANDINAVIAN VIEWS By ELMER W. PETERSON STOCKHOLM, June 2.—With new trade agreements with Eng- land and France in force and with export trade general showing. a tendency to impreve, Sweden, in common with the other Scandinavian. countries, looks to the world economic con- ference with a more confident tone in the daily press and fi- nancial journals. Under the conditions it now ap- pears doubtful, experts are agreed, that the Scandinavian nations, jointly or severally, will present any plan or program of their own at London. Specifically, Sweden, Norway and Finland want the market for wood products loosened up. Having in the main held fast to free trade theories, the Scan- dinavian nations have com- paratively little to pacrifice in the way of trade restrictions. Arvid Richert, chief of the commerce bureau of the Swedish state department, recently. as- sured exporters that the north- ern nations would protest, any more for a general reduction of tariffs on a percentage basis.

TO ROOSEVELT LIKENESS OF PRESIDENT PRO- DUCED FROM DIFFERENT SHADES OF WOOD The Rotary Club of Key West today sent to President Roosevelt the picture’ of himself which was made in. this city by Arturo Boza, and which was presented to the Rotarians at a meeting held some- time ago. The picture, made of twenty-| eight different kinds of wood furnighing the shade effect desir- ed, is considered quite an artistic productién of the likeness of the chief executive of the nation. Mr. Boza, who is now in Ha- vana, was highly commended by the Rotary organization upon pre- sentation of the picture, which clearly demonstrated his ability as an artist, and it is safe in saying President Roosevelt will be equally as pleased as were the Rotarians. The picture has been sent as a gift in the name of the Rotary Club of Key West, with given to the maker. Every detail of this study of the chief executive of the nation is complete in the minutest degree.

The stage is at the Cove Creek dam site on tiny Clinch river, which winds serpent-like through the hills in its rush to the Tennes- see river. Already more than 100 men— U.
