The commission voted to request bids for the painting of the outside of the Municipal Hospital building. Bids were opened on bids for a new pump to be installed in the old fire truck with only one bid quali- fying to the conditions. This bid was from the Peter Pirsch Com- pany with a bid of $1,925.00 for a first grade pump to be installed on the truck in Port St. Joe. The Oren Roanoke Co., of Roanoke, Va., en- ter-ed a bid of $1,545.00 for the same pump but the truck must be deliv- ered to their factory for installa- tion. The W. S. Darlie Co., of Chi- cago, offered to sell the city a dif- ferent kind of pump to be installed by the city for $980.00'for the pump. The last two bids did not qualify due to the conditions specified. All bids were held for study due to dis- crepancy in prices. I. C. Nedley approached the com- missioner with the motion that the city inspect the catch basins being constructed on Monument Ave., as to effectiveness. A letter was presented from resi- dents of the Municipal Trailer Park requesting ,that the city provide more hot gater o.. the park. At present an ,1igalon'- heater fur- nishes the whole ark.

V. Henderson of Ja,cksonville, Fla., was hired for the job at a starting of $350.00 per, month. It was pointed out by the Mayor that he had contacted a number of local people about the job and that he could find none that were qualified that would take the job. -Clerk Dickens requested an audit of the City Books prior to his leav- ing and the commission voted to employ the D. A. Smith Co., of Jacksonville to make the audit. The mayor urged the commis- sioners to study the City Charter carefully to ascertain if any chan- ges. in the Charter be necessary due to the coming session of the state legislature. iAfter this, the meeting was ad- journed. _____-_____-- Junior Women's Club To Sponsor Mother's March 'Mrs. R.

And you lave only been office two weeks now. Heaven 'help the future of the county if your legislative acts to come are to be like the one just passed. We are not alone in these sentiments, by a long shot. In fact, we have yet failed to talk to anyone who IS in favor of such a move. Isn't it customary to seek out the will of the people you represent before passing such resolutions? If you think not, we think it advisable that you here and now resign from your office. We did read in the minutes of the County Commissioners that the resolution was requested by a county resident, but we were under the impression that the majority of the citizens had the voice of power in such decisions, not just one or two persons.

RAMSEY We attended our first meeting of the City Commissioners this past Tuesday night and we would like to report here and now that they are bending over backwards to save the city money. We notic- ed that every matter that came up that involved the expenditure of city funds that someone came up with the admonition that the mat- ter be taken under careful consid- eration to see if the city was re- ceiving the full -value of the tax- payer's money. A very fine atti- tude we think, and one that we could use in other forms of gov- ernment here and there; mostly there. We made our semi-weekly trip to White 'City Tuesday evening to pick up the "White City News" (our other trip is Thursday eve- aing to deliver some papers to the same community) and we picked anp an extra column from the mind of Geogre Harper and the pen of Mrs. Harper concerning the fish- ing and hunting in that area. Dur- ing the course of conversation the point was brought out that the bobcats and raccoons are catching and eating the young turkeys and shortening the supply of same. We, having just recently come from Georgia, made the remark that they ought to kill the 'coons and eat them then. Mrs. Harper gave an incredulous look and re- pled, "Eat the 'coons! I. should say not". We then proceeded to enlighten her on the delicacy bf the dish of barbecued 'coon meat. Mebbe it don't sound good to you but brother, you just haven't eat- en anything fitten to eat until you ehomp on a mess of barbecued 'cpon. We were dubious too, on 4ur first trial of the dish, but one asouthful won us over. JUst as a matter of information, the 'coon is one ,of the cleanest 'unmalgd ii the woods and we might add, about the most tasty We made our first regular month- ly payment on this place a few weeks ago and it felt good. We have been wishing for many years to get the chance to make that first payment on a place like this and now we are looking even more eagerly to the day we make the LAST payment. Ain't people funny that way? Arthur Godfrey said the other day that some scientist had in- vented a process to make shaving unnecessary for men. Who'll spon- sor the ball games and fights on the radio if they do away with the razor blades? Oh well, it's prob- ably only a snood to keep your beard in anyway. Anybody in town develop pic- tures? We told you about our ex- perience with Delany's Studio in Panama City, about their week de- livery. Last Thursday night we got some shots of the Rebecca in- stallation to go in the paper and sent them first thing Friday morn- ing by special delivery to Bryan's in Panama City for their advertis- ed 24-hbur delivery. Well, as of 12:00 midnight Tuesday, when this was set we have seen no pictures from ,the aforesaid studio. Needless to say we are a bit riled about the matter. Phooey on both of them. We have a nomination for the meanest person in the world this week. Last week our children were playing in the vacant lot to the side of the STAR building with a locomotive with a riding seat and steering apparatus, that old Santa had brought them for Christmas. When they got through playing with it, it was left at the side of the building and some one came by and picked it up. Needless to say, they would appreciate having it back.

While it lacks the glitter and glamour of the Gold Coast or the aloof, self-satisfied atmosphere of the northwest, it makes up abun- dantly with charm and scenic beau- ty, and offers the visitor the joy of comfortable relaxed living, with' no excessive whoopee and no cov- er charge. Illustrated with an excellent se- lection of pictures, it tells the fas- cinating story of this sprawling em- pire that is the home of the state's great citrus and cattle industries, of busy, bustling cities, lakes and rolling hills. Starting at White 'Springs and the Stephen Foster Memorial, the author takes his readers on a wind-- ing tour that includes just about' every town and community in the area. While he deals with such at- tractions as Silver 'Springs, Cypress Gardens, Bok Tower, the Great Masterpiece and Tom Gaskin's Cypress iMuseum, he has not per- mitted their description to domi- nate his story and the reader meets many interesting personali- ties who are a part of Florida's Heart and have had much to do with itsf development. He tells of the countless motels and trailer parks, pictures young anzd old eri oying the pleasures that attend life in central Florida for both native and visitor; swimming, boating, fishing, shuffleboard, mo- toring over rolling highways with wide vistas of sparkling fresh wa- ter lakes and well kept groves meeting the eye. Calls attention to the extensive cattle ranches where herds of choice cattle may be seen grazing on luch grasses. Tells of the introduction of the Brahman cattle and crossing with native stock that revolutionized the in- dustry and put Florida on 'the map as a cattle state. Stopping for a look at the Uni- versity of Florida in Gainesville, Street informs readers that it is the largest university in the south on one campus with the exception of Texas. Reminds us that it was here "Red" Barber got his start, the Cracker boy who has thrilled For '53... the McCulloch "A '55 hair stand up on the nape of any follower of Isaac Walton. Backing up his verbal description are pic- tures that no true sportsman could possibly resist. He tells how thousands of folks with modest incomes find a real haven in the Heart of Florida. Folks who have found that they can beat the ever-growing tax rap by turning to trailer life. Here they find just about all that anyone could ask for. Open roads alive with scenic beauty, thousands of lakes where swimming, boating and excellent fishing are always available, an abundance of fresh fruit and vegetables plus balmy weather and health-giving sun- shine. While such charming, peaceful communities as Ieesburg, Mount Dora, Orlando, Winter Garden, Kissimmee, Lake Wales, Sebring, Avon Park, Winter Haven and many others may be short on night life and lacking in such attractions as horse racing, prize fights and sight-seeing buses, they are never- theless appealing to thousands of folks who don't go in for that sort of thing and are content with sim- pler pleasures, Florida is indebted to author Street and to 'Holiday for .this timely article dealing with a dif- ferent Florida, a more inviting and charming Florida than is known to those who limit their knowledge of the state to Miami and its environs. ------ ~------ Heavy Sleeping Blankets In the eight hours you spend sleeping each night, your breathing lifts the bedclothes 7,000 times.
