Pepper, director of health and physical education at the High School, tell that Key West youths are below average in physical prow- ess as compared with youths of other cities in the same age group. They have the strength, said Pepper, but do not know how to use it. Pepper blamed the poor scores registered by tne High School students as due to never having had a strict physical education training program. The physical education direc- which is in progress at the High School has a_ two-fold benefit. First, to better the youths’ phy- sical condition. Secondly, to teach them games now that they can use in the future, after their school days are over. Pepper was introduced by Hor- ace O'Bryant. Guest was R. G. Albury, a brother-in-law of May- or William W. Demeritt. Visiting Rotarian was Frank Turner, of Memphis, Tenn. stood there looking and lis- tening. . . . All was very, very quiet—no juke boxes, no laugh- ter, no sound of cars, nor even the crowing of a rooster. .. . Key West was sound asleep. —o— Friends, the rooster won. He whipped me, beat me and sent me from the neighborhood in which I have been living a nerv- ous, sleepy wreck on the verge of the screaming weemies. I} here last week—the rooster that) 16 minutes past 4 o’clock with a} crow that was a combination of the wail of a stricken child, the bray of a jackass and the scream of a locomotive on a frosty night. The slingshot I contemplated for this monster’s destruction did not ; materialize, and even if it had I! would not have had the strength to fire it, so sleepy I was because of having been awakened every; morning for weeks at 16 minutes past 4 o'clock. So the rooster wins and I lose. I hope to meet him in a stew some day. —e— The other day a Sweet Young Thing from the no’th asked me if conchs can bite. She. said she knows where some are, and wants to gather them, but is afraid to pick them up for fear they might bite her. My own knowledge on the subject is quite limited, but I advised her, nevertheless. I told her that seven, eight, nine and ten- horned conchs do not bite, but that Sometimes two-Tegged’conchs snap like the devil. ie Mayor Demeritt says he never knew of anyone to get hit on the head by a falling coconut, and he has lived right here among them all his life. I, on the other hand, who come from where coconuts are seen only or store on the head by one in far-off Guam. He is a Marine, and one day while sitting under a palm tree with helmet in lap a coconut fell and hit him on the head. He told me that it fractured his skull | and put him in hospital for sev- eral months. Ho, hum. Goodbye for now.
