We trust it may keep its promise this time and we shall omit no effort to warm its blood and stiffen its backbone to that end. Florida has a State press, daily and weekly, of extraordinary ability and efficiency, and its State Press Association is perfectly organized and officered; in addition there ig no State in the Union where there is such close comradeship among the pewspaper men. Yet with all these advantages the annual meetings. of the press association are by mno means what they should be, and but for the attendance of a faithful few they would gradually trail off to hardly more than mere nominal oc. casions. The newspaper men say they can’t find the time to attend, but we notice that Harry Brown, of the St. Augustine Record, one of the very busiest and most efficient men on the }"lorlds press, can always find the time to be present, and if the can do so most of the others could, too. Wi are mighty proud of the press gang in Florida, and for that very! reason it is distressing that so often there is such a conspicuous absence of a full and representative attend- ance on the annual meeting of the Press association. People get a false and inadequate idea of the per . sonnel and influence of the Florida press from such shrunken attend- ance, and that hurts ug all, individ- ually and collectively. . The great Fourth Estate is always advertising others and blowing ev. erybody’s horn but its own, and we sre very much in favor of making the meets of the Press association the one big event in the year when our forces shall be massed, and, im-| posing in numbers and resplendent ! 1 in oratory and other forms of noise, the State press shall appear for what it really is, pretty nearly if not quite, the biggest single aggressive and progressive moral unit in Flor. ida. We welcome another Kentuckian to the ranks of Florida journalism. Mr. E. R. Jones, of that State, but who has for some months been asso - clated with Clarence Wood on the Fustis Lake Reglon, is now the as. soclate editor and manager of the Arcadia News and his good work is already showing. “When Woodrow Wilson Takes His Seat,” but he never goes down for the count. His heart is full of sun- shine and he always comes up smil. ing. We wish him good luck in his latest venture. Not on your life it won’t. We refer to the Florida legislature and the advice offered it by the Miami Herald. That paper advises it to meet next month, pass the necessary appropriation bills, call a constitu- tional convention, adjourn and go home. Well, hardly. There are gentlemen elected to that body who of themselves and with their own unassisted tongues intend to take up fully as much time with their indi- vidual oratory as would be necessary to carry out the program of the Herald. There are hundreds and hundreds of little bills, many of them already drawn and very few of them of any merit, that will be in- sistently squeaking for attention during the next session of the legis- lature. And what’s a legislative per diem for if it can’t be worked to a finish? The Telegram has received the Semi-Tropic Florida Development Year Book for 1915, isused by the Tampa Tribune. 1t is a very beau- tiful publication in magazine form of eighty well-filled pages, giving fine publicity to South Florida and her material resources. The green cover is singularly alluring in its artistic embellishment, and the co- pious illustrations of South Florida scenes, rural and urban, are splen- did half tones highly effective in| The ! | impressing the observer. write-ups in the Year Book are all good and the Tribune is to be con-, gratulated on the general excellence of the work.
