w It was: announced from the City Ianll this. eek that good water for :' t Joe is tb become an almost im- rilwdiate reality. A complete study j^an oposl of the new water sys- tepnt"i exp cted on Mayor Jake Belin's desk within the next ten days according to word received from' Smith nd Gillespie Engin- eers Of JacksOnville. According to Mayor Belin, pumping operations &bould start an later than the first of March in 4. In a teleph ne interview with busy Mayor Be n, who just return- ed to the city erly thi. week, he slated that the ci council had been PORT ST. 40E S... A' Progressive Community With a Modern, Progressive Weekly Newspaper I working with bond attorneys, the State Board of Health, sanitation engineers and water suppliers al- most every day for the last three months in order to expedite the much needed water system. The mayor said the council had work- ed out a very satisfactory agree- ment with a local water supplier and he believes after the final sur- vey has been placed before him, the actual cost of purchasing wa- ter from the new supplier will be less than pumping and piping'costs the city 'has borne for the past fif- teen years. Since the city is current in all THE Will Get New, Soft, Water of its bond obligations, as well as all operating expenses, it is believ- ed according to the mayor, that no difficulty will be encountered in selling the revenue certificates at a reasonable rate of interest. When asked about the water supplier who was to sell the city water at such low cost, Belin stated that the sur- vey would show the local Paper Company's new water supply sys- tem was more favorable than any other supply since it would require less treatment and filtering..Pre- linrn'ary tests show that th Pa- per Company's water is very soft- with color and turbidity within the State Board of Health's required Standards. It is believed that very little decoloring will be required. The Paper Company has recog- nized the need of bezcer water for this city for a long time and its offer to supply water :o the city from its new system is welcomed by local consumers. The mayor went on to say that for years the .council has known that underground strata offer only hard, sulphur water whicn; along with other minerals, is almost im- possible to treat and, soften. It has cost the city a great deal to treat what water the city has now avail- STAR Supply able. Even after the best of treat- ment the water from underground lacks in color and softness. The mayor readily admit-ed the present water is deplorable. He said the city had grown so rapidly within the last two years that the drain on the present system is too great to supply the need required in this expanding community. He went on to say that he had been discussing the new system with lo- cal housewives, and young mothers particularly. "Do you know, the mayor beam- ed, all of them are tickled to death.

This is a serious election, although too many people consider municipal elections as small time and unworthy of atten- tion and not worth the time consumed by going to the polls to vote. A municipal election is small in scale as compared with a National or State election, but in a way, far more important to you in this community. We don't have to tell you of the duty of each citizen to vote and of the privilege the ci- tizens of this nation have in the power to se- lect their own public officials. But we do wish ETAOIN SHRDLU by WESLEY R. RAMSEY Last Thursday at Rotary Club we heard a speech by a student just returned from Chile where he ,had been attending a university that made our blood boil. This student had been in Chile for about a year and came back kitlli a It!Li'e inti: .mate picture of trar country. We can't however, abide with some of' his ideas concerning trade relations between our country *and Chile. We will not go -so far to say that the ideas were strictly his own as they are the feeling of the Chilean people. Anyway, according to this speech Chile is suffering from a depression because the United States doesn't buy copper from Chile, who pro- duces a good amount of the min- eral. The reason the United States doesn't buy copper from Chile is because the United States can pro- duce a better grade of copper from its own mines cheaper than Chile can produce the copper before the material is shipped to the United States. Chile claims slie cannot produce copper for less.than 35c a pound. So what they want the Unit- ed States, to do is to buy some copper from them at their price not taking into consideration the fact whether the United States needs the copper or not arid despite the fact that the United States can produce better copper cheaper. What bargain-minded American 'would pay -a higher price for any- 'thing? Our economy is based on ,fast, cheap production. Here we see a nation practically dj ,iardin tuijt '.e bi-.' ..;'t eir pro. tJ.il"-t I price, .set b. -them The way we look at it, if Chile wants 'to sell us copper they should do as the United States did-de- velop .a means of producing it cheaper. If the Chileans 'haven't the brains to figure this out, we have no doubt but what they could hire someone from the United States to show them how. We wonder what the situation would be if the shoe were on the other foot. Do you suppose .Chile, or any other nation for that mat- ter, would buy copper or anything else from the United States if they could produce it themselves cheap- er? Not on your life. They would consider themselves fools if they did. And they would be. So will we be if we carry 'off a scheme like that.

L"'' Put Early Fal Vegetables on Daily BY DOROTHY MADDOX- VITAMIN-PACKED, appetite-tempting, fresh early fall vegetables are in the market now. Enjoy them! Serve them daily in your family menus-but be sure to cook them right in order to get every cent's worth of value. Fresh Cauliflower With Buttered Crumbs Fresh cauliflower should be creamy white with tightly packed flowers. To cook, trim off outer leaves, leaving the tender inside leaves attached to the head. Invert the head in a pan of salt water and let stand 5 to 10 minutes. Drain. Place, head down, in. boiling salted water. Cook, uncovered, about 10 minutes. Turn head right-side-up and continue cooking until stem end is tender, 10 to 15 minutes longer. Drain and serve immediately, topped with buttered crumbs, which can be made by ,melting 3 tablespoons butter, adding % cup fine dry bread crumbs, then stirring over low heat until lightly browned. Fresh Broccoli When buying fresh broccoli, look for stalks that are firm and green. The heads sl yld have tight buds and be a rich green or slightly purplish greenlcolor. Broccoli should be washed thoroughly under running water or by plunging the heads up and down in cold water. Trim off the tough stalk ends and drop into rapidly boiling salted water. Cook just until stalks are fork tender, but still firm-12 to 15 minutes. Some people like to stand .the stalks, blossom end up, in the water and cook about 8 to 10 minutes. Lay the blossoms down in the water and continue cooking until tender. This is because the stalks take longer to cook than the blossoms. Serve with butter. Fresh Carrots When buying fresh carrots remember that the deeper the orange color, the more vitamin A they contain. Select carrots that are firm. crisp-textured and smooth-skinned. Yw', 2.-.u oun: carrots cooked whole are delicious. Wash and drop -~ e. " ~~ : '$..Q 2"i 91~6 -- . y. . . '- ,; .* .. : s. ~ ~ '.: '.. ..:.,- -',': ". : *- 4 *.

This will be 15 to 20 minutes for young ones and 20 to 30 minutes for older carrots. Slip off skins under running water if desired. Serve topped with melted butter and a good sprinkle of minced fresh parsley. For sliced carrots, wash and scrape them thinly. Slice and drop into small amount of rapidly boiling salted water and cook, covered, just until tender-6 to 10 minutes. Drain and serve with melted butter or add a little light cream and toss gently just to coat each slice.

Urban Mileage Limits To Be Changed A gradual reduction of speed a reasonable distance from smaller villages and towns of Florida, in- stead of the sudden reduce speed to 25 miles an hour signs some dis- tance out on the highway is now in practice on at least half of all highways in the state. The State Road Department adopted the method some months 'ago, and will continue to erect the signs gradually until they will be in use throughoutt Florida. The new system reduces speed on a graduated system from he lawful' limit to 45 miles per hour, then to 35 and down to 25 by the time he reaches the city limits, or gets just inside the village or town. Previously the only signs which reduced speed were erected some distance from town and motorists generally disapproved of the me- thod which they contended gener- ally impede dthe flow of traffic. The present practice has met with motorist approval, the state highway patrol says, and tends to --- 'facilitate the movement of traffic '. in the rural areas by lowering the lawful speed only in areas of lim- ,MIL ES CAFE ited sight distance. IL Signs which restore a step in speeds before resume speed signs a FINE FOOD j as the motorists leave these areas, have also been erected in the towns FAMILY STYLE 4 where the speed reduction signs.

The difference is that he only bakes as a hobby. Moreland uses practically the same efficient assembly-line meth- ods for gathering cake ingredients as he does for turning out the vital. and precise mechanism of a Whirl- pool washing machine. The final re- sults in each case are a proud ex- ample of craftsmanship. In the nearly 30 years that Mr. Moreland has been associated wit4. washing machine manufacture he has learned the secret of precision. in quality production. In his own. kitchen he follows the same methods. A chocolate cake starts at one ar;d with an empty bowl. As it moves along the kitchen "assembly !ine" toward the oven, proper in- gredients are added from neat wall bins and shelves. While the cake is baking the "sub-assembly" job of preparing the frosting goes on. Here is one of Mr. Moreland's 'secrets" on how to remove cake ;hat sticks to hot tins: Apply a *loth soaked in cold water to bot- iom of hot pan.
