Be |) wine, economize. Yours truly, THE ORACLE. |) IN DISAGREEMENT The Citizen heartily dis- agrees with a correspondent: whe takes us to task for) publicizing the article in the; magazine “Holiday” with-' owt calling attention to its imaceuracies. We also are) wet in aceord with the sug-' gestion “that in all fairness | te prospective -visitors to! Key West, and in the inter-/| est of the city itself, a true: statement of conditions as| they exist is much more of a} drawing card than the play-) ing up of hurricanes, black-! eyed peas, turtles and bird-} like ladies could ever be.”; Pvery place has its disad-| vantages and there is no- need to call them to the at-{ tention of the visitor. It is customary in every form of} publicity to project only; those projects that are! pleasing to the eye, and; show “everything that pret-| ty & and nothing that is vile.” ONE IN TWELVE | The War Department, | which reports 992,648 re- eruite during the past year, ways that of those given the cholee, only one in twelve preferred the infantry. Evidently, the foot-slog- wing soldiers experience too much monotony in times of peace and the reeruits have thelr eyes on what they consider more attractive conditions of service. Not only dees the infantry have he tedious job of peacetime training but, in the event of war, it suffers heavier eeuntties in proportion to deployed, than any ther branch of the service. In a spirit of levity, one in twelve reminds us of the} recruit who preferred the in- fantry over the cavalry be- cause, “when you all blows the bugle for retreat I don’t want to be bothered with no hans.” nen We wonder how many native-born Communists are now in the United States? Any plan of peace be- tween the United States and Russia will work, if the Rus- sane will work it. if » loves beauty and looks for it, he will see it everywhere.
