Indifference is a shirking of respon- | sibility. | | Ignorance carries: its own punishment | —incompetence. | When two quarrel the winner is he who is first silent. Work and love for it is a very old recipe for contentment. Principles are rules that people adopt for other people to follow. An egotist is a fellow who thinks he is as smart as we think we are. The wicked flee—and some of them | fly, now ‘that we have airplanes. , » If you want people to like what you say, be sure to say what they like. The trouble is that our earning capa- city is not equal to our yearning capacity. Anger leads to acts of revenge, just as tender feelings seek objects of affec- tion. The old Hebrew kinship of man with God could stand revival, especially at this time. Just remember that what you don’t know will not hurt anybody as much as it hurts you. Laws and commandments, in the opinion of some folks, were made to guide | other people. ee | Most of the quarrels that create bit- | among men and women occur over | 1 affairs, i It is hard to tell whether some fel- | s are commendably patient or just | downright lazy, Education, it seems, is making prog- ress; we remember when legs were prac- tically unknown. Why not ae up your mind to do} | something every day to improve yourself; | it will pay big dividends. Uncle Tom’s Cabin was applauded in New Orleans, which indicates that the | Civil War is about over. A lie, like a note, has its day of pay- ment, and the benefits if such they might | be called, are only temporary. It is said that selfishness is commonly | Hittte mo.®. than perverted emotion.

A city without trees is like a man without eyes, a woman without features. Planting trees adds to the value of property, to the | beauty of a city that has beauty but needs more of it where it may be seen by chance | observers. Now it has been brought to the at- tention of The Citizen that someone has stolen six of the cues bought by private in- | dividuals from their own private funds for the shuffleboard courts at County Court- house. The courts were placed at disposal of our own residents and the sailors and marines who have been brought here un- der a program that is enriching our com- munity life and adding to our prosperity. It may be that the cues were stolen by residents who resented their use by visi- tors and sailors. Whoever stole the cues committed a erime against this entire community. Key West’s principal income comes from the tourist and the men of the army, navy and marine corps. These people need recrea- | tion and a civic group is doing all it can to provide adequate recreational facilities. That was the purpose of fixing up the shuffleboard courts—to give recreation to those who supply Key West’s principal in- come. : It ‘s about time for the enlightened citizens of this community to get wise to the fact that they must cooperate with the authorities in bringing about the. arrest and conviction of vandals and thieves who are destroying our beauty and recreation facilities as fast as they can be provided. It is a serious thing this city is confronted with. Our thinking citizens cannot let the unthinking and the ignorant. break up every attempt to improve this city. The cooperation of all who are work- | ing for Key West is needed to stop dis- couraging and destructive mischief by | those whose minds are too small to enter- tain a decent, constructive thought. FLU STILL BAFFLING . In spite of all the research and ex- | perimental work that has been devoted to trying to find a preventive or cure for in- fluenza, little of practical value has been accomplished, according to Dr. Bundesen, Chicago Board of Health. Even the length of time which must elapse between exposure and the develop- ment of the disease is not definitely known, but it is thought to be about 48 hours. The infection probably gets into the body through the nose and throat. Per- sistent efforts to discover vaccines or serums to overcome this infection have been unsuccessful. Influenza begins suddenly with a chilly feeling and fever, sneezing and coughing. There is headache, with pains in the legs and arms, and usually sore throat. Other symptoms are similar to | those of a common cold. There are no definite measures which may be used effectively to combat the in- fection. The best treatment known at present is absolute rest in bed, taking plenty of liquids and such simple drugs as are necessary to relieve the pain and fever. In other words, stay in bed, be as } comfortable as possible, and let nature ef- fect its own cure. This is the best Pro: | ‘cedure in case of a common cold, also. Continued work, exposure and _ neglect | often lead to pneumonia. In tearing up the young THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ig PU 12 LEY MEMORIAL METHODIST FLEMING STREET METHODIST CHURCH (Uptown) CHURCH O. C.
