After allow- ing the Detroiters an 8 to 0 lead early in the game, Chicago came from behind to win 18 to 17. Roth orchestras are playing engagements at the Century of Progress. Better sorghum syrup is promised as & result of new processes of manufacture developed by government chemists, which will also enable syrup makers to turn out a more uniformly good product. At present the difference in quality between the highest and fowest grades is very great, the best bringing about three times as much as the poorest. The new precess may also increase the “turnover” in the flapjack industry. Saying it with flowers brought its re- ward to Miss Julia Porter of Bolivar, Mo. Por several years she attended every funeral in the town and carried flowers. A local andertaker suggested that she run for city treasurer on a “posy platform,” whieh she did, and was elected as a Demo- erat, although Bolivar is normally Repub- liean. When an indignant taxpayer of Tren- ton, N. 4., complained of finding tadpoles in his bath water, Commissioner Swan sug- gested that the objects complained of might have been pieces of rubber washers. Madder than ever, the taxpayer roared: “Pieces of rubber don’t swim, and: they don't dart away when you try to catch them.” Mr, Swan promised to investigate.

What he did say was that we were that we have a depressed mental attitude towards the bridges-—that if ‘we do not get them, all is lost. He meant to convey the thought that even if this devoutly wished | for consummation is not realized we can} rehabilitate ourselves in other ways, that our material salvation does not depend solely on the construction of the bridges; | eonnecting Key West with the mainland. | EVERGLADES NATIONAL PARK | (Times-Union) Surveyors are now at work in the famous | Everglades of Florida, working on lines and boun- daries, studying the land which is proposed to be | included in the Florida Everglades National Park. | Congress having adopted enabling legislation which | will allow the Department of the Interior to in-{ clude area in the National Park system, there must | be a survey made and the proposed limits definitely planned. | The new »park, which will certainly be | one of thé most wonderful in the National Park | system of the country, to -comprise | about 2,500 square miles of primeval territory, at | the southernmost tip of the United States main. | land, will be made up of lands now held in title by | the State and by individuals and corporations. The , whole parcel must be owned by Florida and then tendered the Government and considerable detail | is to receive attention before this proffer of the | is expected area can be made. Except for the matter of a few small islands in the Ten Thousands Islands group, the Federal Government now has‘no claim in the park area. The State, which owns many thousands of acres of this land has been authorized by the Legislature to aequire lands needed to make up the park. The | coming session of the Legislature will probably ar- of that are in the proposed park may be offered: ex- range for additional acreage.
