Warren, father of Mrs. Kirchhein- er,,and Glenwood Kirchheiner, brother of J. Otto, were celebrat- ing their birth anniversaries. Mr. Warren has reached his 72nd year and Glenwod -his 45th. The family enjoyed a delightful repast and the pleasures of the jing recalled a similar event, which happened 10 years ago at which other members joined with those who were present last eve- ning and made merry with Mr. Warren over his 62nd anniver- sary. “Au Revoir But Not Good Bye” Miss.Paula Camero, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. G. Camero, of 211 Whitehead street, is back home again after a delightful vis- | it of two months with her cousin, Miss Rose Mary Prime of Coral Gables, and Mr..and Mrs. Wm. H. Prime-of Miami, Fla., her uncle and aunt. Paula has a charming person- ality and has endeared herself to wide circle of friends in the gic. City, who regretted very * much her departure for home and from their circle. However, “high school was call- ibg” Paula and whem “you've got t® go, you've got to go”, she said. *Au Revofr, pals, until ‘nex! vacation time!” was her parting remark, PERSONAL MENTION -Mrs, C.

So then let us ponder a little, } Let us look in our hearts and | see If the twilight bells of the angels Could ring for you and me. SAY IT WITH FLOWERS: Owners of the La Concha Hotel have for years been bedeviled by irate guests who were angry over being disturbed at all hours of the night by loud conversation on the corner opposite the hotel, the property owned by the Duc} de Richelieu of France. Hundreds of guests have left Key West (and that’s no exag- | geration), knocking the city and advising other hundreds not to; to. sleep in the only commercial | hotel in the city. The men who} loafed on the front step of the} building evidently had no mal- icious intention whatever of be- | ing a trouble to any one or. Te-| tarding business, but in a.-city| where ‘so many men: are idle, it seemed the natural and easy thing to do.to’ drop on the steps and vis- it with friends. However, the question has been setlted at last by the present oc- cupant of the building, placing flower boxes across the unused part of the steps and the men who formerly sat there have tak- en a kindly interest in the mat- ter, .. good-naturedly — bringing flower'seeds and cuttings, realizing that business must be protected. THE WHEEL THAT SQUEAKS GETS THE GREASE: E. W. Stark, local business man, recently call- ed to the attention of Everett Russell, president of the Key West Chamber of Commerce, the desirability of asking the U. S. War Department to turn over to the National Park Service one or more of the old forts in Key West to be conditioned for sightseeing. Tourists complain there is so lit- tle to see after arriving-over the highway. The old fort at St. Augustine has meant millions of dollars and prosperity .to that city. ce If enough business men keep putting their shoulders to the wheel. something. will. be accom- plished. This writer has recent- ly been told that some effort along these lines ‘is already un- derway by Mayor Willard Al- 1 | bury and Col. J.D. MacMullen—|. ‘the forts over tovef the birth of a daughter on! (Tuesday to Mr. and Mrs. George not for turning the National Park Service, but to make them more interesting to visitors. It seems quite reasonable that the National Park Service could take over the Overseas Highway for a national parkway and save Monroe County a lot of head- aches, and being unlimited pos- sibilities of business and increas- ed values in real estate to all Florida. It is a characteristic of the American people to love their National Parks and thou- sands flock to them every year.

Aug. 31.— Careful study of traffic sta- tistics indicates the “Sunday driver” is responsible for a good share of Texas traffic deaths.
