There surely. must be an impres- sive moral of some %ind to be drawn from the petty row of a bunch of school children in Ocala resulting in the killing of one man and the scrious wounding of another, to say nothing of a fend that may last for years to come. A renaissance of fist fighting in the South, as it was before the civil war made guns and killing so common, would do all con- cerned more good than tariff re- vision, currency reform, trust bust- ing and several other momentous is- sues all combined. Wiy, Wiid The department of agriculture is doing just the right thing in taking definite steps to encourage the or- giving ganizing of boys' pig clubs in the South. to succeed along this line as it wa Here is a just and discriminating|place of worship on tribute to that remarkable genius, Harry Floyd, of Apalachicola, Trom the pen of Joe Reese, of the Orlando Sentinel, which we endorse without reservation. If Harry had the right press agent and the literary “atmos- phere” of New York or Boston, where a mentality as brilliant and unique as his would be quickly rec- ognized and appreciated, his reputa- tion would be nation-wide and he could market his stuff for real money and lots of it.

Harry is more than a the Sabbath days they spend with us.

At 307 boxes to the car, the| figure set last year, this means that! 3,991,921 boxes of fruit have left; the State. Today's shipments will, easily put the figures over the 4,000,-, 000 box mark. As it has been esti-| mated that this year's crop will not be in excess of 7,000,000 boxes if it reaches that figure, it may easily be, “MODERN EVE COMING” “A Modern ‘Eve,” under the direc- {tion of i.e Comte and Flesher, will be seen for the first time here at the Auditorium on Thursday, iafter its long and successful career +ip Chicago. ern Eve” in Chicago was so immedi- ate as to he almost without prece- dent. nor any other staged in Chicago during the past decade has caught the public taste wjith such rapidity.

These zones are then reduced to blocks, each rastidiolls Me“ block being 50 miles square.
