Rightly it comes, in the month of May when all nature is doing its best to make the world more beautiful than ever. Even the flowers seem to whisper the 'beauty and fragrance of a mother's love. May breezes rock the trees as gently as a mother rocks her ba-be to sleap. The songs of the May birds even remind us of the sound of a mother's voice as she cheers and comforts her -little one, two, three, four, etc. (big one's, too). Yes, May is the ideal month to pay a special tribute to Mother. Some mothers' sons and daughters have birthdays this month, too. Mother will always remember when sons and daughters forget. Vividly we, recall onIe birthday about 35 years ago. We had forgotten until we spied a huge, 'luscious chocolate cake that occupied the center ofr the table. "Guess who's birthday," these!

Our Country Right or Wrong FOUR LITTLE RULES This year, the Florida Forest Service and the federal forest service are conducting a drive to prevent forest, woods and range fires, 90 per cent of which are caused by human care- lessness. Four simple rules have been prepared -and every one of them should be memorized and remembered by Gulf county residents who go into the woods on business or pleasure. 1. Hold yolir match until it is cold-then pinch it to make sure it's out. 2. Crush. out your cigaret, cigar or your pipe ashes. Use the ash tray in your car, andi never throw smoking material from the car window. 3. Drown your campfire in water then stir and drown it again. 4. Make sure you know the law before burning grass, brush, fenc erows or trash. There's nothing in those rules a child can't understand. There's nothing that vill cause anyone trouble or expense.

In a matter of hours, fire will devastate a forest that represents the work of nature for 50 to 100 years. It will raze our vacation and hunting areas of the county.

Yes, it was a good school with high rating ... of course we had no gym, no shower rooms, no auditorium, etc. Then a short time later we had to start working for a living .. long tedious hours in a poorly-lighted and poorly-ventilated shop and at very low pay. Recreation ? J IIm-m-m., cars for the wealthy; we did have a "flicker" nickelodeon, an annual carnival, fair, etc.. and for half of our week pay \we could ride the interurban to the near- est metr opolis and see a vaudeville show. Smallpox, tuberculosis and other dread dis- eases of the time took terrific toll ... hospitals were only available in the large cities and very costly. As we sit here in a comfortable overstuffed chair listening to a fine radio program in a well lighted room .. a good car in the gar- age with a full gas tank in case of sick- ness or accident to our loved ,ones we could soon have them in a nearby hospital we are within walking distance of several beauti- ful churches a theater and,other fine recre- ational places nearby and a few cents' worth of gasoline would take us to numerous neighboring recreationanI places we think: Is this the nation that we know has "grown up out of a wilderness," the nation that radi- cal crackpots claim is steadily heading for dis- aster? lie knows not of what lie speaks! When one of these Communistic radicals has the stupendous audacity (or stupidity) to rear up on his hind legs and tell us that our country witit its g-overnment of the people, by the peo- ple, and for the people, is galloping to disaster, we're much more in favor of boxing him up, labeling the box 'aw-nuts," and shipping him to Joe Stalin. Why not put these crackpots on an unin- habited but fertile island,- of which there are many, and let them work their "telephone system" government According to their teachings they wouYi then have their Utopia . but no, it seems that their plans are to take it away from the productive labor and capital who built it they only want to run a nation -not build one! Algonac (Mich.) Courier.

We'd lie glad to, if he or someone else could dig us up the information.
