He has earned a good time and we'll bet he gets it. ey o i The Clearwater Sun wants to call it the *“‘Pan-European wa That sounds too tame and culinary for an event so tragic and stupendous. us something that has martiol roll and thunder in it rather than the rattle and tinkle of the potz and pans. PRSI, BN The Kissimmee Gazette eredits the front end of a recent leading article in this paper to the Telegram and puts the burden of the whols thing on the Pensacola News at the con- clusion. But let it go. In the midst of war's alarms and rising prices we have cut out all the small worries. PN S The St. Petersburg Times makes a very neat epigram when it says that Woedrow Wilson's greatest achieve- ment is what he didn’t do in Mex- ico. To which we may add that if he had done what featherheads in this country said he should have done, the army would now be so busy fighting Mexican hornets that we would have little time and less inclination to read the war news from Europe. RO R s Gl s The Punta Gorda Herald digs up the historic fact that when Albert W. Gilchrist was governor he recom- mended in his first message to the Legislature that castern time be sub- stituted for central time throughout Florida. This strips Miami of her plumage ags the first to think up this great scheme to make people start to work an hour earlier every morn- ing. If Governor Gilehrist should incorporate this as a plank in his platform enumerating his public ser- vices when he runsgfor the Senate next vear, we are not certain that it won't secure him the active oppo- sition of every Democrat in Florida who likes to sleep late in the morn- ing. 1t looks very much like mon- keying with a sacred constitutional privilege. i (A Andrew Carnegie’s grand peace building at The Hague might as well be a rookery for bats and owls for all the good it has done to fend off war in KEurope, but the ecanny old Scot can see very clearly that the armor plate out of which he made his millions is coming in mighty handy these days. He has loot out on the sentimental stde but he is away ahead on the practical. PSSl With fine tact well caleu'ated to preserve the neutral status of this country the British army bands ar now playing both “Dixie"” and “Marching Through stimulating music to cheer on the dogs of war when the slaughter more or less irksome and the enthusiasm not so fiery, we expect them to make an- Georzia” as Later on has become other draw on us for military music and cateh up the mournful notes of “When This Cruel War Is Over.” SR N s We doubt if any community in Florida ever had a better advertise- ment for the money than that little stretch of sand oil road in Eustis. | With Editor Clarence Woods of the Lake R as its eloquent and indefatigible press agent, its fame has traveled all over Florida ponsor and through many States of the]| Union and numbers of people have gone to Eustis to sep if this was all that was claimed for it. The whole nation is i nterested in tne mproved roads, and the Eustis way is so cheap and simple subject of [ its effectiveness shall be fully sting quality of the Inow, suppose you were living in Eu- conditious, | Sent nu,\.vucrte:"“ about you lurid with the flames i His heaven?

I RESULTS GOOD ROADS. A total of 2,848 miles of good roads were built in Ilorida last year at a cost of more than $1,- 000,000 according to an official report just made public. Halfj sand-clay, 857 miles with marl] or crushed stone and of the re- \ number of Florida counties)| have voted hond issues for road| construction in recent months, | and it is estimated that the ex-| penditure this vear for highways will amount to $3,000.000 more. Nothing has demonstrated | more notably the progress thatjers of this paper: IFlorida is making than the build- ing of good roads in that state. These roads are payving hand-| some returns on the money in-' \c~\ml in them.
