The poem by the visitor fol- lows: KEY WEST An island fettered in the sea By bands of blue and ivory, By bridge of links that seems to float Upon the ocean’s opal throat. A poem set in silver rhyme ~ Of beach and palm and Spanish lime, Of gay hibiscus in sun-dance And little streets that hold ro- mance, Where slow bananas clap their hands When rain-drops slip upon the sands; And wind in frolic gently blows A rich perfume of pine and rose. Here happy sun-browned lovers stroll And poets come to fill scroll. The evening sounds upon the air Are music, music everywhere. their | The home address of Jessie Goddard Broman is 4632 York Street, Minneapolis, Minn. AROUND MIAMI (By CONTRIBUTOR) ° Mr. Xinterpip, of Miami, heard about Key West, all those nice things people are saying, and de- cided it was the greener pasture. Now, Mr. X, like a lot of other Miamians had come from some place else. He had a government pension but wanted to earn a lit- tle something -for the wife and kid. After looking the Island City over he decided it was some swell place and he made a few \friends and would have remained, raised his family, voted for a mayor who would “keep the station-house clock clean” and would, inevitably, have spent the balance of his pension on Duval street. But, being still young enough to dislike loafing around all day, he must needs have a job. He tried to make contacts in Key West, to fit in, to gain a footing in his line, or any other.

Later he worked in a print shop and serv. ed as a town jailer. One night he and prisoner slipped away came soldiers of the against Huerta. At 19 he was a captain of cav- alry, rising steadily then to the top rank of division general. He got his military experience in the field. Four times he was near death. Then came political expe- rience, as governor of Michoacan, secretary of interior, president of the National Revolutionary party and secretary of war. That was the post he left to run for pres’ dent, as protege of Calles. Later, Calles criticized him for a “rad- ical marathon”. For his pains, Calles was exiled.
