P. ARTMAN, JR. PAARBAAAAARAAAAMDAAAAAANAAAAAADAABABAED NEGATIVE MEN The negative outlook on life is valuable only when one comes across an obstacle which cannot be surmounted, and even then it is a mighty poor substitute for fine human living. Consider the intelligent ant. When he is plac- ed in a labyrinth, he tries and tries to get out through the my- riad doors. He seems almost not able to be discouraged. Sooner or later his patience is rewarded. Thus it should be with most of us in life we should continue nosing here and nosing there un- til finally the breakthrough comes. There are of course ob- stacles which can be seen as too great and which perhaps should not be attempted. For instance, thus far no one here has suggested that a bridge be- tween Key West and Havana be constructed. But who knows? Someday something may be in- vented which will make that possible. Ever since they found out the possibility of flying to the moon, nothing will ever amaze me again. e e BOAT “CAN DO” There was a little boat over at Bermuda, where we trained in the Coast Guard to escort the big envoys over to Europe which wjs a ridiculous little sort of a thing. It was built some- thing like a sardine can and overloaded with machinery. It was the boat which the base ashore sent out when things be- gan to go bad in machinery aboard one’s ship. There were eager and even mature faces in the men who climbed aboard to tackle the problem. Sometimes in a short time oftentimes after a long time they climbed back down to their little sardine can with the same happy, eager fates. Then they pulled off. The engineering officer would say goodby to them and I would ask him the routine question: “Well did they fix it again”. “Yep” he replied happily. Never once did I see them fail. The name of the little boat was the “CAN DO”. Can do—it is a good little title! Can do! It is much better than CAN’T DO, CAN’T kept the escort ships of a nati in repair when the toughest problems had been reached. Kept them going and fighting off} Nazi subs. CAN DO! CAN DO!! e s PUBLICITY PROGRAM | STARTED | I do not think at the present! writing I will be guilty of say: ing that the publicity or adver- tising program for Key West cannot be done. On the contrary I will predict that this winter it} will be done, e ° PROJECTS TOUGH PROBLEM Projects for Key West is the toughest nut to crack because] there you go into real dough. We} know that there is plenty here} in Key West to see and we have} so organized now that the ma- jority of persons who come here will secure that information and not wander around lost in the} cit.y The Businessmen’s Informa- tion Booth is a real step ahead} along this line. But projects is a wide field. At present the projects which are advanced in the making are 1. Beach on south end of Roosevelt Boulevard. 2. An Open Air Aquarium in the! city, which is being remodelctl | by the Navy and will shortly be turned over to the city for use | of the city very shortly now.| 3. Sightseeing boat and sight-} seeing bus. The boat is completed, the bus has just been placed in operation. Then. of course there were scores of social affairs, plays and music hours designed for visitors to this city which were put into effect last winter. 4. Key West's first advertising program since the war was also placed in effect, $300 of ad-| vertising and some direct mail sleep . . .

City Manager King has | just bought South Beach for $37,- 000 for the city. The city and | county are working on the gén- eral projects and somewhat for tourists ,too. Perhaps the big- gest program of projects im- {mediately ahead is servicing | tourists and getting them to come here summer and winter. The plan of attack on that is getting them down from Miami both summer and winter. e e POOR TOUNiST: SEASON Here is a misstatement I wish to explode right now. We had a | darn poor [tourist season this past winter, Probably the worst | Since the bridges opened. This | was due to people not yet re- ; covering from war shortages of tires and autos and Key West not yet ready for the tourists. For instance our former charter boat fleet of about thirty boats | comprised ten this season. The | high rate of travel on the High- way was due to the continued naval and commercial traffic | which remained high and then added to that a small layer of tourist traffic. If the Navy were | not here I will freely predict the tolls over the highway would have been very low and disap- pointing. e ° MYTH EXPLODED Tell me we're not bad. Many , persons about a month ago when | fiis so called Williamson ex- pedition began its publicity phases questioned me about get- | ting a story. I told them there ; was no such ship in Key West jand The Citizen has never jc ied a story that the ship was here. Also, our prediction was | that it was some sort of publicity stunt. Comes now the first trick- ‘Jes of public opinion reaction in | which doubt in the expedition | finding the Cortez ship off Key West is expressed. It was quite evident that if Williamson did not want prowlers as he blared | to the public he would not then take to the press and radio to ; say so. There were many physi- j cal factors too such as disbelief Continued steel __ shortages, sem to be the pre- dominant reasons why the Gulf Atlantic Transportation Com- pany has not started service be- tween Key West and Havana. Thought in the city last week is that the company is dickering for dock space. Some say that they wish dock space free from} the city. At ail events action started in this column to get up H. E.

HARVEY N, BLOOMER Bill Jones was big and healthy, Of his strength often spoke, But his wife got couponitis And insisted that he smoke. He didn't like tebacco: " She was well aware of that, But she told him ‘twas the cheapest Way to furnish up the flat. So he started smoking stogies; Just to get into the: snap. Each night he brought his coupons And laid them in her lap, Now and then, of course, he faltered When he struck one very rank, , But his wife would always whisper: “Dear, it's money in the bank! Then he'd sink his teeth in deeper, But his friends thought he would choke, And he knew his health was going, But he smiled and smoked and smoked. Soon he wasted to a shadow, His breath he couldn't catch, And at last he got so weak, his wife She had to light the match. So one day he dropped unconscious, She knelt down by his side, “Only one more room to furnish, Don't desert me now,” she cried. “Just a few more puffs, now dearest, Please wake up and start to pull, Sweetheart, dear, I need that washtub, See, the book is almost full.” But Billie now was past all hearing, The kindly light had left his lamps— He had started for a country ‘ Where they smoke, but get no stamps. coming about nicely.
