The Orlando Sentinel puts it up to you to help stem the tide of a great disaster in these words, and if you are the man we take you to be you will promptly lead off in the stemming: “Florida editors unable to buy a bale of cotton may at leas. agree to wear socks, now that winter is ap- proaching. If Rube Allyn will start the movement all hands will join in.” ) In an unfortunate moment of casua] and careless phrasing the Sanford Herald spoke of ‘“‘the de- spised Florida sweet potato.” We] have no desire to ‘‘rub it in;” we merely quote the veteran Editor Caldwell, cf Jasper News, who has been charming his palate, satisfying .his stomach, cancelling the indebc- edness of his subscribers and strengthening his mental and moral fiber with Florida sweet potatoes ever since he left the hard fare of Lee’s army. He says: “Despised!” Yes, when a nigger despises a watermelon, a callow youth despises his sweetheirt, and a mother despises her baby, then a Florida sweet potato may be de- spised, but not till then, that is one thing certain.” — O — The Orlando Reporter-Star has a new member on its staff, Miss Elois2 Robinson, who will take care of the social department of thai paper and all matters relating to the growing activities of women as factors in this progressive age. Good for the Reporter-Star. The tremendous ad- yance of women is nowhere more marked than in their reiation as workers and wage-earners in jour- nalism, and it has almos: chme to pass that the staff of no daily paper is considered complete aud up to date without the presence of a bright and capable newspaper wom- an. And beyond question their work gives to a paper a certain and hign- ly desirable quality, not merely lit- erary chic and grace, but something deeper and stronger that appeals to the best that is in us, which no man can impart to his writing and of which the dear sex has an ahsolute and unquestioned monopoly. A gen- eration or two ago a woman wage-, earner steadily at work as a mem- ber of a newspaper force, would have seemed painfully out of place to our crude and primitivé®® fore- fathers, but now she ig “right on the job” without the sacrifice of a sin- gle grace or charm, and both wom- en and journalism have gained im- measurably by the change. R The Sun would be very much against spending a $50,000,000 Florida brick road fund in Califor- nia. That’s the answer. Let it soak in!—Clearwater Sun. Clear case of a non sequitur. We have not said that the Sun wanted to spend a $50,000,000 brick road fund in California. As we under- stand it, that paper advocates a trunk system. of brick highways for Plorida, which it has been estimat- ed would cost $50,000,000, an ex- travagance not to be seriously con- sideéred at this stage of the game; but it is strongly opposed to a Flor- ida exhibit at San Francisco, se- lured by a method that wouldn't cost the State a cent and is open to no criticism beyond the alleged wit at the expense of “punk dollars.” We merely fail to see the consis- tency in advocating a scheme that would cost the taxpayers $50,000,- 000 and has no popular support whatever, and persistently de- nouncing and ridiculing a modest little plan to put €lorida on the map of the San Francisco exposition that wouldn’t cost the taxpayers a cent nor take a dollar from any man’s pocket except it came by his own consent with full knowledge of what he was getting for it. Now let that soak in. Powell is a good stayer on the firing line but he ought really to train his guns on bigger game than the preity little humming birds twittering in ‘the cause of those classic souvenir dol- lars and going over the State seek- ing to sell them to publlc spirited citizens. —— e o S —— e e s “De morteris nil misi bouum."” ‘wculd have gone for a two bagge THE EVENING TELECT,\\ yAx BLAND, FLA., SEPT. 20, 1914 A — The proofreader on the Clearwa- ter Sun is douh(less dead ere this Champs ":3ll On the » and we d a tear to hls memor\ mg ty but we can't’ say hlat he d dn't de- h Ba“estel'o .

It's won many a ball game. Batting Bill Brazter is still in pretty bad shape. The baseball boys are getting up a little subscription | among themselves for him. — The locals have brought three records to Lakeland in the league geries. Lakeland was the first to make a home run and Spivey and e e e Chambers are the only ones that have been made thus far; Lakeland is the only team that has made a triple play, and Martin is the only pitcher that has pitched a one hit game. —— Red Moore, former umpire of the league was a witness to the game. RED was sure consoling Lewis, and, believe me, he needed it. ‘Leon was real sore at Mira. Won- der if he won’t take him over his knee and spank him when they get to Tampa. Gee, but those Cubans are hard losers. You would think a fortune had been lost to see them hanging their heads.

The Densmore sisters brought down the house with themr harmony singing and the dancing of Hill and Watson, the two comedi- ans, was hugely enjoyed. This com- pany puts on a good, clean show and should have good houses all week as they change nightly. % g i VR S DBDPDPDPPPPPPEBPEPDIBDE PO OPEPPERBPIPBPDDDEED SIS " PHONE 400 SO ST BD IS S PPPESFEFSPSREPEFIEDESIPP PPIVESPIPEPBINOH 00 RED CEDAR and CYPRESS SHINGLES PINE LATH, LIME, SHINGLE STAINS, SEWER PIPE, CRUSHED STONE, Sand, etc. SISHHFFFFEESOPSIFEEEFEIIIIPIIE Builders’ Supply Compaiiy A.C.L Rallroad North Side Lake Mirror.
