ITIZEN The THEATRE IN MY FREE ADMISSION [AA hd dhl i et Vege eI IIIT IIOIIIIIaS for at least one day. The Motion Picture Cooking School will be a practical rally of ; home-makers to contribute fresh perspective for the “same old job”, the monotonous day-in-and- day-out job, vet the most import- | ant business in the world. Just as men have their annual conven- | tions, where they listen to lec-/| tures from specialists, local wom- | en will have their convention to consider home-making problems. ; Just as fresh inspiration for the old job is one of the by-products of the familiar cooking school, which presents a lecturer model kitchen, so are new ideas and keen incentive born..in the film class for home-makers, with its novel approach and modern setting. No “faise-front” camera-beauti- ful kitchens sa’ ied these spe- cialists. They insisted on work- ing in complete, compact, mod- ern kitchens, which actually re- flect more scientific ingenuity and careful planning than any living room. Recognizing the demands of home experts. the producers of “Star In My Kitchen” signed all- star kitchens, with an all-star cast, adding a continua! proces- ion of close-ups, so that every seat in the Palace Theatre is a good seat for this amazingly-pic- tured home-making course: Everyday happenings been dramatized in the plot of “Star'In My Kitchen”. Behind the sparkling humor and suspense that are so necessary to screen stories was a deliberate plan—an ambitious determination to catryy instruction, _imspiration, . ,and worthwhile home news to women in every community The camera took its time and it took its close-ups,,so that every person in the Paiace Theatre will have a “large as life, and twice as natural” view of each operation There will be no “orchestra circle” at this entertainment, since the back row guests of The Citizen will have an equal chance to peer into the busy mixing bowl, watching the deft steps of measuring, creaming, sifting, and thorough mixing, not overlook- ing the final work of baking, roasting, French-frying, or freez- ing For this is no half-hearted dem- onstration.

They will recall that | they have heard all that before. Every four years mainland can- didates for state senator go down there to look the situation over ;and come back reporting every- | thing is fine, only to learn, after | all other returns are in on elec- | tion night, that they got 92 votes, | or as many as they didn’t need, in | Monroe county. This has happened so regularly jin the last 50 years that people ‘around here don’t believe what |they hear from Key West, in- {cluding those belated returns. Nevertheless, both then and now, the tidings have quite likely been true, including said returns. When jour candidates go down there ‘and find things are all right, that is the way they are. The trouble is that something has always hap-| pened a couple of days before election—or perchance a couple of hours after the polls closed—to make our candidates howl of fraud and complain of deception. This paper has frequently echo- ed those cries but on second thought we have usually doubted that they have the validity which it is so easy to ascribe. It seems strange that a good candidate, meeting with a cordial reception and with apparently authentic pledges of support, should find practically no evidence of all that when the votes are counted. The natural assumption is that he has been basely deceived or grossly defrauded and that is the notion we have up here of politics in Key West eee But that could be wrong and probably is, for a reason which | will readily concede. The reason is that the people of Key West are the friendliest folk in the world. Anyone coming to see them, on business, pleasure or politics, is greeted with the warmest hospitality and made an honored guest. They want you to come out to their homes, to sit and visit in their offices, to meet their friends. They are in every respect just as nice as they can be and they are utterly sincere about it, too. They are no less sincere when they listen to the visiting candi- date, agree volunteer their support. They aren’t conscious of deceiving any- body; they actually mean it—at the time. If they could cast their votes that day it would come out as our ¢andidates expect. But al- ways—in those last few fatal days before election—something has happened to make them change their intentions and they do it just as honestly as they made up their minds in the first place. What happens is that they are told by their leaders—also in the main sincere—that while the mainland candidate is a good fel- low and all that, still there are compelling local reasons why Key West should retain the senator- ship and it would be better if they all vote that way So they do, and that for the lopsided returns course, it may occasionally be true that some didn't get the word in time, making it necessary to continue enlightenment while counting the ballots. There has been some evidence of that but when all is said and done it is to doubted that there is very much dissent at Key West with the count as announced.—Fort Myers News Press, April 6, 1938 (Paid Political Advertisement) accounts of be MELVIN E.

The doctor ended his talk by introducing Dave Sholtz, former governor of Florida, and now a candidate for United States Sen- ate Mr. Sholtz was happily receiv- ed. He talked for more than one hour, devoting a great deal of his time to a resume of his accom- plishments for Florida during his term of office as governor.

Mark Wilcox in several of his addresses that the WPA in Flor- ida has hired hordes of political parasites to whip into line WPA workers throughout the state to vote for Pepper led The, Citizen to make an investigation in Key West to find out if the “whip” was being used here. It was hard digging for a time because WPA _ workers were afraid they would lose their jobs if they opened their mouths. Fin- ally, The Citizen ran across a man who wasn't afraid to tell the truth “Sure, they’re doing the same thing here”, he replied to a que: tion. “One of the political para- sites who is getting a fancy WPA salary arrived in Key West from Jacksonville more than a week ago. He went around to the su- pervisors or foremen of all the projects and emphasized implied threats that if the workers and members of their families didn’t vote for Pepper, WPA work would be slowed up or discon- tinued -in Key West Forced To Submit “I am forty-two years old and have voted for one-half of that time, but it was the first time I have ever been told how I must vote under threat of losing my job.
