Successful merchants seem to agree that advertising won’t make business where there is no reason for business but they also affirm that the store, with goods to sell, in a place where people need the merchandise, ought to use intelligent sell- ing methods. Count Salm who married the rich Millicent Rogers and was given a dole of $800,000 to stay away after being di- vorced, now wants to cut in on the $9,000,~ 000 left his son from the Rogers millions. O. O. McIntyre expresses the pious hope that the courts will give him, the gate. There is something tangible in a gate, why not give him the air. We once fought for the preservation of the Union; if crack-pots continue to tinker with the Constitution we may be called upon to fight for that venerable document, too. Regardless, however, one of our corstitutiona! rights is freedom of speech and every citizen .should remain unhindered in expressing himself in heart and mind. Voltaire aptly states ‘is thought: “I wholly disapprove of what you say but will defend to the death the right to say it.” a a ON GOING TO CHURCH Naturally, most of us are religious D. AYS GONE BY IN THE COU and tend to become members of some or. ganized religious group. We should be af- filiated with the religious organization that expresses our own religious ideals, if possible. We should identify ‘ourselves with the church that seems to us to be the best for the development and strengthen~ ing of our own faith. aor There are, in Key West as everywhere else, scoffers who sit on the sidelines and relate the defects of individual members, of the churches. They find -‘éxctise - for their own absence from organized, igion in the lack of perfection that is commonly exhibited by the members of any church. They do not belong to a church, they say, because they are not good enough, or be- cause they are not hypocrites, like certain individuals they mention. These reasons, it seems to us, are not so weighty. They are usually the ex- pressions of those who have, in their own minds, a conviction that being in a church will interfere with the lives that they lead. It would seem to us that any individual could find a church group from which to draw inspiration for a better life if that is desired. Gi Members of churches are not perfect. In fact, many of them are bitterly aware of imperfections. They seek—the majority of them—to live better lives: and look to religion to supply strength as well as in- spiration. Millions of men and women testify that this is the truth, so far as they are concerned, whether it is so with others or not. Organized religion has done much to improve human existence. It has gradually broadened the horizon of men and women, developed the-spirit of human brotherhood and generated ir many hearts an abiding love for humanity. True enough these same results have been accomplished, often erough, outside of organized religion but such instances are the exception and not the rule. With all allowance for criticism an individual,. in most Americag communities, will be running with the best people of his race when he attaches him- self to some church and becomes an _ or- ganized supporter of religion as a great factor in human life. HENRY GRADY’S ADIVCE Henry H. Grady, the great Southern editor and orator, died 45 years ago, but the advice he gave to the farmers of his native Georgia and the South many years ago is as sound today as it was when it was uttered. One particular gem of his which has been often republished is of particular significance just now. It applies equally to North or South, provided the principal money crop of any particular section be substituted for ‘‘cotton,” where it occurs in the original. Grady said: “When every farmer in the South shall eat bread from his own fields and meat from his own pastures, and disturbed by no creditor and enslaved by no debt, shall sit among his teeming gardens and orchards and vineyards and. dairies and barnyards. pitching his crops in his own; wisdom and growing them in independ- ence, making cotton his clean surplus and selling it in his own time and in his chosen market and not at a master’s bidding— getting hi: pay in cash and not in a_ re- ceipted mortgage that discharges his debt but does not restore his freedom—then shall be breaking the fullness of our day.” GET-TOGETHER—OH, YEAH! The formation of the industrial coun- cil as a minature successor to the NRA ap- pears to have “blowed up.” sa A good many of the large industrial organizations of the country are _openi opposing the government in its plans te regulate their affairs. For a long ‘time they submitted to orders from Washington but now there is a tendency to turm to the {] courts for what they call their rights All appearances tend to show that the days of getting together are over, and that from now on until November, 1936, a great political battle will be waged through the nation. The “getting to- gether” idea divides sharply in two divi- sions—for, and against. The attitude of many groups reminds one of the old story about the Irishman who came over to this country, and remained consistently “agin” the government. KEY WEST IN Happenings Here Just 10 Years Ago Today As Taken From The Files Of The Citizen Dr. J. Y. Porter, sr., president of the chamber of commerce, has been advised that two hundred thousand acres of land have been sold in Polk County, Florida. In a telegram to Dr. Porter ty Corporation, tells of the sale of the land for a price of $8,000,- 900, which is an indication that the price of land in this state has not slumped.
