Politicians do not swallow bitter medi- cine With the same resignation as patients. If Diogenes were alive now and started out to find an honest man he. would find him right here in Key West and, believe it ~or not, he is a bootlegger. To the vietors belong jth he spoils, is a demecratic political slogany and the losers should be good sportsmen and allow the ‘victars to enjoy the fruit of their ‘efforts, and conquests. : Prof: Harry N. Holmes df Oberlin uni- versity announces that he has succeeded in making a new oil that is 9,200 times as po- tent as the ordinary cod-liver oil. Now won't the little boys and girls read of this dis- covery with delight. A learned scientist has come to the conclusion that humans use only ene-sey- enth of their brain power, leaving six- sevenths undisturbed, Perhaps the in- mates of the insane asyiums overdid the thing and turned on the remaining six at ~-full blast. Although the recent national air pag- eant in New York was'given for sweet char- ity, it lost more than $40,060. Stunts in t the air have become so commonplace that} they seem to be unable to attract paid cus-} tomers in sufficient numbers to make avia- tion meets profitable. “Statice” pertains to a body in perfect | equilibrim. Severa} councilmen at the first} meeting of the new city council aceused the static. Just the opposite of perfect equilibrum prevailed at the meeting, so either the definition of the word is wrong or there was no static, of which complaint credited to paper and also FAITH AND LOGIC (Fort Myers News-Press) Old timers who may think they made a mistake in not getting out of here when the getting was good, or newcomers who feel that things didn’t turn out as well as they expected, should be exposed periodi- eally to an interview with Barron Collier. It would renew their faith and leave them satisfied that they are in the best of zl! possible luck, Mr, Collier has been in as lo>’- 1s most old timers, his first purchase— .,ht here in Lee County—dating back 22 years; and he is in deeper than any newcomer, his in- ‘vestments in Florida running isto the multi- millions. Today, if he hac to cash in, it would be pretty sad. Yet he hasn’t a single regret nor the flicker of .. doubt. He has often said that if he had it to do over again he would do the same thing. He got in for the long pull and that locks as good to him as ever. In any venture of that kind there are bound to be ups and downs. With the foresight of a successful business man, | competent to engage in large enterprises, Iv. Collier included these fluctuations in his plans. The ups did not stampede him and the downs have not discouraged him. He expected they would come, and:-he knew they would go. He ignores them:as passing phrases and keeps. his faith in the main chance. Mr. Collier states it with conviction, the same as you would state a belief in God, but he does not attempt to define. He is a communicant pledging at the shrine, rather than an evangelist exhorting from the pul- pit. Another great apostle of Florida, Mr. Collier’s good friend and intimate, Col. Pet- er O. Knight, will give you facts and fig- ures, cite history, quote records and sum- mon science to testify that Florida is what he says it is, and will bh what he knows it willbe. Whenthose tw_ set together Col. Knight proves his case while Mr. Collier stands admiringly by with an air of, “I knew it all the time.” And if Col. Knight’s unerring logic is impressive, Mr. Collier’s contented faith is uo less so. These two are not chamber of com- merce boosters, whistling to keep up their eourage. They are men of vast affairs, whose contacts include the whole of the United States, and beyond. They do not look upon Florida with provincial eyes, see- ing nothing else. Their judgement is form- ed with the whole picture before them, and with experience and knowledge guid- ing them. Enamored of Florida they may be but they are not the kind to let the love light blur their business sagacity. Their vision is apt to be in the proper focus and if it is clear to them, as it also is to a not-! able galaxy of others in their class, then it would seem that it could be accepted by the rest of us, on the word which they give and the faith which they hold. NEW BODIES FOR OLD If you weigh yourself today, and then weigh yourself three weeks from now, your weight will probably show little change. But, according to Dr. Adolph of the Uni- versity of Rochester, at least 93: percent of the real substance of your body will have been changed: i in the meantime. For, he asserts, the water cohtent of a human body changes every 2t-days, on an average, and the body is 93 percent water. *He-also- figures that the nitrogen of the hody, which is the chief element in the chemical composition of muscle, is renew- ed every 290 days, while the iron compon- ent is changed in a slightly longer period. Tt used to be thought that the actual substance of one’s body was completely changed about every seven years, but Dr. Adolph’s researches indicate that the time ef renewal is much less than that. So, when you look in your mirror you may sce whai appears to be the same object you saw there a year or two before. But the real substance will be almost entirely different, and the change will generally be for the worse rather than for the better.

Differences of opinion by dif- ferent groups are too many times considered as opposition. The individual who fights for the public’s good stands alone. He is heard only within a small circle.
