Life would be fine if we could all do whatever we pleased, and we always pleased to do whatever was right. It’s just the time for Key West perk up and put on a demonstration civic loyalty and individual enthusiasm. to of If every resident of Key West would do something to beautify his or her prop- erty, the effect upon the appearance of this nature-favored community would be remarkable. ou * We are for the farmers but they can’t “expect the government*to buy everything}. “they can raise at a prieé higher than the market. In the long .rén, this process would bankrupt any government, and who is the government but the people. President Roosevelt has often asserted that opponents of autocracy are opponents of democracy. On the fact of it, this is an incredible paradox. He probably agrees with Macauley’s assertion that purely democratic institutions will eventually de- stroy liberty or civilization or both, believes in—-preparedness. and The lust for unlimited power, through its own madness, finally destroys its This is the lesson pos- dictator strangely sessor. each in the past has learned, but enough each dictator must experience the | consequences of a dictatorship himself.

MERCHANTS, TRADE AND NAME TOWN that If all the articles have been written about trading at home were | around the universe and back home again, The idea that it pays citizens of Key West to patronize home industry is such simple truth that some “smart”? people be- lieve that there is a catch in it, and they prefer to be “wise” and send off for some- thing that the ‘foolish’ town boosters * miss, : The Citizen has heretofore urged its ‘readers ta buy everything possible in their home: town, because a town or city has a money balance just as vital to progress as any individual] budget. The more trading done in Key West the more profits there will be and the more prosperity, and _be- sides those who have faith enough to open | up business here are entitled to the patron- age of their community. However, let’s keep the argument on a sound basis, and to do this we must con- sider the merchant's obligation. He is not entitled to the trade of local citizens un- less he is really a merchant and not a mere storekeeper, content to pluck the random profits of desultory trade. Local merchants '|.to merit local patronage must be modern ‘in their methods, up-to-date in their ap- peals and efficient in business. They can- not, and should not expect a community to support incompetency through misguided home spirit. Having said so much about our mer- chants let us point out that Key West, like other places, has efficient as well as_ in- efficient merchant. We have reliable and honest business houses, and, we regret to say, a few that are not above taking the profit and forgetting the true principles of modern business. Readers of The Citizen are urged to be discriminating in their patronage and to support the in Key West who are public spirited, of known honesty and of apparent efficiency in business. In so doing you will not lose anything. MORE STUDENT BONERS One of the most industrious compilers of students’ boners, actual or invented, i: Alexander Abringdon, who quotes the fol- lowing in a recent magazine: Chivalry is the attitude of a man to- ward a strange woman, A’ compliment is when you say some- thing to another which he and we know is not true. The feminine of bachelor is lady waiting. All brutes are imperfect. is a perfect beast. The Bible is against bigamy when it ays no man can serve two masters. Newspapers are useful for reporting calamities such as deaths and marriages. The theory of exchange, as I under- stand it, is not very well understood. Heredity is a bad thing and it ought to be prevented, The animal which possesses the great- est attachment for man is woman. A plagiarist is a writer of plays. A mugwump is a.bird that sits on the fence with its mug on One side and_ its wump on the other. in Man alone VALUABLE ADVICE FREE When ever the editor has little or nothing on his chest for discussion in his columns he can always fill up a portion of his space by giving some advice to his reader, _ Being somewhat in that situation, we “rise to remark” that two-thirds of 1937 has passed, and that those of us who made up our minds, when the year was begin- ning, that this would be an epochal year in our affairs, had better stop long enough to review the; situation and see just where we have come.
