CONVENTION PLANS ADVANCE | reer “@livir: Following a period of apparent idle- . <.Om 24 4 ness in planning for the forthcoming Am- erican Legion state convention in Key West next year, the apparency was denied this week when a joint committee of | legionnaires and Chamber of Commerce officials appeared before the County | Board and presentec the need for a con- | tribution to assist the Convention Corpora- tion in its plans. Granting of $1,000 to the group came as good news to those who have been. working quietly right along in perfecting the initial steps necessary to insure a profit- able conventior from every standpoint. | The commissioners are to be congratulated ! for their foresightedness in the matter. The | step taken, The Citizen feels, will prove a profitable one for the city and county. The Legion convention, as has been stated before, is the largest single en- deavor of its kind ever to be undertaken by Key West and its success will mean much towards bringing similar events to the city. | Operating without benefit of a Con- | vention Bureau, the Key West citizens who have banded themselves together into the | corporation are planning on cooperative | action from all organizations of the city te | make the convention, now eight months | cif, a credit to the city and a means to spread the news statewide that Key West stands ready and able to entertain any- size, similar gathering. It’s a mar-sized job this group is at- tempting. A thousand and one tasks i | await performance. And it’s not a bit too soon to prepare the major part of planning | steps to be taken. The action taken this week was opportune and its success means that the corporation can start off on the right foot of at least partial financial stability. Legionnaires are pointing out the good possibility of conducting the coming convention to match that held at Ft. Lauderdale two years ago.

The Lew tells of the divine instruction relative to character and conduct. Testimony \tells of the divine witness to what God is, and what we should be.
