Curry, of Jacksonville, who is State president of our Union, recently took a field trip by aufo through some parts of northeastern and north-central distrlcts. ville was one place visited and at Interlachen the secretary was found not at home, being just then in Ala- bama. In Jacksonville the Christian Citi- zenship department is kept in very active condition by its local and dis- trict leader, Mr. L. E, Pettyjohn. West Tampa Congregational En- deavorers were fund.

The Gainesville Sun wisely com- ments: “Violence in the attempt to further a cause is bound in the long run to react upon the cause and those who employ it.” This is just one of many things which makes Christian Endeavor the world over suceeed. It does not “‘fight back,” or start fusses. Mr. R. J. Charles, president for Southwestern district, and wife, are in England this summer, but have promised to return in time to lead in plans for the annval district con- vention to come in St. Petersburg, in October.

One of the most significant in- dications of prosperity among the masses is the coming to Flor- ida at this season of the year in great numbers, of homeseekers from the sections of the coun- try where crops are fine and prospects bright. From the harvesting regions of the northwest, where it is supposed farmers are needed in PERRET XL T ETITR PR TR TR person, are many down in the state, and more cumin;:g every | day. They declare they are| looking for an investment for, some of the surplus rthey will make on their farm this year and Florida looks good to them. The homeseeker as a general thing, comes to Florida in the early spring, at a time w hen | there is no work to be done in his section, and all he can do is to sit by a roaring log fire and, try to keep warm. Then a trip to Florida is a respite from the cold, and the state gains many a good settler, who, constrasting the casy of life here with the hardships of his own section,’ sells out all he has in the land of ice and comes to the land of flowers. Coming in season, these the midsummer homeseekers see Florida at its worst, and from exclamations from many who have been down the state and from those just arrived, they are satisfied with what they are see- mfr in the summer. The climate is the thing that catches them, even in July, and when they read the weather reports in the daily papers and see a thermometer record in the eighties in Florida, and feel the coolmg gulf and ocean breezes, and then contrast Bleddedb bt il b i bbb dddbbapgs | them with the daily records in their northern states, where the mercury is in the high nineties or on the 100 mark they are of Florida is not fairy tale or falsehood. The railroads are best thing possible for when thc bring these here in the summer time, They are showing Florida at its worst, which is many degrees better than the best that any other state in the union can offer a man and his family. doing B T — FLORIDA'S CLIMATE. There is no gainsaying the fact, Florida has a most salu- brious climate. When it is swel- tering hot in the northern states it is nnthnw out of the nr(hnary here. W Ilul it is hot it is not killing. Sunstrokes are un- known here and heat prostra- tions are not included in the Florida complaints, It gets warm in Florida. No one will deny the fact, but you can just nnumhgr that when it is warm here it is boiling hot in the big cities ux the north, The ]vw]vlc of the United States have been slow to learn this fact. Ihey have always thought be- cause Florida was the southern- nlmt of the southern states it wWas necessarily the hottest, However, this is no the case. This fertile peninsula thrusts it- self out boldly into the sea. On the one side it is washed by the great Gulf of Mexico and on the other 1t is bounded by the mighty Atlantic. Cool and re- freshing breezes from these two vast expanses of water make this one of the most pleasant home building lands in the great sis- terhood of states, One authority has declared that the character of Florida's soil is the cause of this extreme- ly temperate climate. He points out that the sand is neither a conductor nor an absorber of heat and that uvannunlx the heat from the noonday sun is not stored up to \wrr}" the peo- ple at night. In many of the less lavored states the rock and other mineral matters store up this heat and give it out during the night. In most of the states, even t far to the north, the heat is more intense and suffo- cating because of the lack of ocean breezes, 10se But thanks to publicity, Flor- ida’s climate is Mwu more and | more appreciated every day.
