There is too much camouflage in courtship to find out each othe mentality and character, so the physical attraction _ re- mains the predominating influence, and that is often fatal, when it is too late, and divorce the only way out. Those in the know are insisting that Chester B. Treadway, chairman of the Florida state high commission, will get the nomination for governor, though he him- self says positively that he will not run and give» his ill health the reason, Of course, if he is drafted he need not run, Just a little canter will land him, in the chair. as One need not sympathize with Major! Bowes’ amateurs who get the gong, be- cause it is mere camouflage, arranged be- forehand. As a matter of fact sympathy, if any, should go to those amateurs who make the grade. They only receive their participation in this vast advertising scheme while the “flops” are appeased with $10.00, and sent on their way. j Advertising, that is generally speak- ing, must be constant and not spasmo to be effective. The public forgets qui ly. Once our favorite automobiles were} the Wirton, the Scripps-Booth, the Brush, the Liberty, the Stearns-Knight, the Ap- person. How any of you readers re-j member these cars? How about Pyles Pearline, Babbitts S>ap, and other house-; hold words of a past day? They were in the public eye because they were stantly advertised. con- | | follows: 4 KISSING SCHOOL ; is more or less generally known, kissing has never been developed to any great extent, either as a science or as an art, among the Japanese. Some time ago Judd Mortimer Lewis, ; famed columnist in the Houston Post-Dis- | patch, visited Japan, and noting the neg- lect of this delectable practice, humorous- THE KEY WEST CITIZEN UNUSUAL FACTS REVEALED \ Me by "Movie Spotlight”, ly suggested the establishment of a course | of osculation at a Japanese university, go- ing so far as to offer his services as_ in- structor. A forward looking native, who per- haps had visited the Occident, eagerly ex- | pressed approval of the idea in the follow- ing letter to Mr. Lewis: “I am the only investigator on kissing in Japan. Kissing must be known of the Japanese, but they does not care of it. The Japanese governor does not permit to teach them openly even if it is so import- ant a thing in social etiquette. I wrote five times an essay on kissing, but the Jap- anese metropolitan police look them as the demoralization. You say you will be able to be the lecturer on kissing. The day will come, I am wishing, I myself will teach. The Japanese government are cutting the scene of kissing in the film, without the knowledge of it.” SIDELIGHTS By MARCY*Bs DARNALL, Former Editor of The Key West When a manuscript supposed to have been submitted by an applicant for mem- bership in a San Jose College literary so- ciety was read to the members it was un- animously rejected as being without merit. Their president, in a jocular mood, had read a part of the “Songs of Solomon” from the Bible. Traffic Judge Wells of Birmingham seported that his automobile had been stolen. The .oss was not great, however, ©3 the “car” was a miniature one, made of rubber, which he used while on the bench to illustrate accidents, and cost only a dol- lar. .rousers and overcoats must be get- tlug scaice, according to Dr. G. W. Alli- son of the Edison Electric Institute, who declare. in a recent address on ‘Under- production” that only one pair of trousers for every three men, and only one over- coat for every 11 men, were manufactured in the United States last year. “Hell Frozen Over” might have been an appropriate headline for a recent dis- patch, which tells of an unprecedented coating of snow and ice which covered the | village of Hell, Mich., a few days ago. After listening for three days to argu- ments in a lawsuit over a small piece of land appraised at $10, Judge J. H. John- son of Allendale, S. C., said: “I'll pay the price of the land if one of you will deed it to the other and “he this trail, which has already cast the state abotit $500.” Traffic cops are. generally considered to be hard-boiled, but one of them, the late Joseph Schneider of St. Louis, had a kind heart off duty, whatever may have been his attitude in a traffic jam. During his lifetime he adopted and reared 35 poor children. Some unusual trees are thus described in a recent magazine: The fastest grow- ing tree is the eucalyptus; the lightest is the ambach of Egypt; the oldest is a cy- 500 feet in height; the most massive are the giant Sequoias of California. What is said to have been the first merchant’s advertisement ever printed in an American. newspaper appeared in the Boston News-Letter on August 21, 1704, as “At Mr. John Mice, merchant, his warehouse upon the dock at Boston, there is to be sold good cordage of all sizes, from a spun yarn to cables’ of 13 inches, by wholesale or retail.” From Prof. Doyle of George Wash- ington University comes a good word from, the much abused co-eds. He declares that tle preserce of girls on the campus makes the male students more careful of. their | personal appearance and conduct.
