These “South Sea” islands, of which Key West is one, has the most agreeable winter climate in the United States, and fishing in their waters is incomparably the best along the coasts of the United States, so excellent, indeed, that excursion fishing oats that. go out of Miami almost invari- ‘ably"head ‘for the keys, The first-of the major developments on the keys is now in process on the lower Roberts said in The Citizen yesterday. +s), Ut. is. going, to ‘be a high-class resort, withtestrictions on the buildings that are to be erected there, so that the smaller houses will be in accord with those that may come under the designation of “man- sions”. Beautification is the aim of the de- velopers. That phase of the work was ex- plained fully in The Citizen, when Lower Matecumbe was sold, by W. A. Parrish, chairman of the Monroe county commis- sion, who said that thousands of coconut and other palms would be planted and | bulldozers and graders would be used in the work of beautification.

The ¥. observa- tion applies, we think, to the déws in Great Britain and in other civilized countries. It is unfortunate that some Jewish leaders, in the effort to establish Palestine as a national home for the Jews, base their argument upon the assertion that the Jews are apart from existing national govern- ments. Nearly everybody knows that there are intelligent, distinguished and loyal citizens of the United States who are Jews. The same statement is true of any other country. ; j EE ‘The world will be all right when men will be all right.

KEEP GOVERNMENT IN ITS PLACE ernment bureau as the bureaucrat is to private industry.

That will make it much easier to trace them. “You'll want tosee Uncle Rufus,” she said. “And then Miles will drive you in to New York. “Now, while we're here, undis- turbed, I want to have a little talk with you. It’s not going to be very pleasant for either of us, but I’m afraid it can’t be avoided, “T am in need of money,” Aunt Emma went on, “desperately in need of meee, to carry on my work.

Tc do this, I had to sell some of my holdings, and my income was cut in half. And I’ve never had one day free from financial anxiety since then.” She rose. “That's all,” she said. “I have no proofs. It never occurred to me to demand any sort of written ac- knowledgment from your father. I knew he'd never be able to repay me. If you choose to do so, when you come into Uncle Rufus’s money—” “TH give you—my word—that if Tever do get any money—” “Very well!” said Aunt Emma, “Remember!

It was not empty now, Uncle Rufus lay in the bed, and Uncle Peter sat beside him, sprawled out ina chair.
