Dr. Woodbridge Tells !
| Of His Trip To Florida
i Described. Important Points Enroute
i and Tells of Scenes and In-
djistries of Palmetto State.
"Rotarians had the pleasure, at
their meeting at The Tavern last
-Thursday noon, of listening to Dr.
C. O. Woodbridge tell of t"he liigh
lights of his recent trip to Florida,
and believeing our readers will enjoy
it, too, we are passing it along to
you:
Sunday, November 10, all aboard
for Florida at 7 a. m. The weather
was moist all day—showers most of
the time. On down by way of Milan
and Dundee, through -the outskirts
of Toledo, to US-25, south. If one
follows map of each state he cannot
go wrong.
We passed through several well-
kept towns and cities, all having the
appearance tliat the depression is
over. The farming country between
here and Cincinnati is much like it
is around Saline. Crops have been
good, still lots of corn to husk, and
farmers in their fields planting
wheat.
We stopped awhile in Cincinnati
and""* saw the wonderful railroad station, much like the one in New York.
TTrom there we crossed the toll-
ibridge to Covington, Kentucky. The
country here is very poor—all mountainous, winding roads and mostly
Negro huts. Stayed -first night at
Lexington. Around there and Lexington the -country is known as the
blue grass region. They ship over
1,50*0,-000 pounds of tobacco each
year. "Raising sheep, cattle and race
horses and making whiskey are the
chief occupations.
Monday morning it was still raining "when "We left Lexington. Here
there are many large estates, big
houses, but very few barns*; lots of
-corn, ■eiabins -and stone -fences. Had
breakfast at Berea, a college town.
This "is ran toterdenomina'tional •dmrch
school and costs $2;000 "per week for
maintenance'; "beautiful *buildings
and grounds. *We stopped at *London
for a short feme and ^Wie there -visited the court house where the judge
was holding court—mostly whiskey
cases. 'One iellow said': "That there
judge keeps "us in jail all the time
for 'being drank.'" %
Next we visited Norris dam. It
cost $3;000,000; elevation, 1,250 "feet;
dams back 53.000 acres so as to prevent floods; shaft cost $43,000, and
engineer "was from "South America.;
drops "12 tons of cement mixture 'at
a time; employs people from every
state in the Union, and it will require
two 'mure ■years to "complete same.
Our next stop was at "Knoxville,
Tenn.,- a nice city of 125,"000 population. AH 'kinds of mills. Then on to
Cleveland, where Clarence Gray
Bellemore, erected a most wonderful
curly war monument in memory of
his daughter. On to Chattanooga,
through mountains and parks aU
of you "have read about. "Rome, Ga.,
has one of the largest cotton mills
in the south.
Stopped at Atlanta, Georgia,
Tuesday night. On Wednesday we
got as far as Jacksonville, St. Augustine, "and DeLand, near where our
cousins live.
On Thursday we started to see
Florida. Visited Sanford, where
more celery is grown than any
other place in the world; they also
"have a fibre factory, where brooms
and brushes arp. made. The great
nine trees are all covered with moss.
Palms, orange, and some banana
trees everywhere. Labor, all colored.
Beautiful Lake Monor on the outskirts, the. Mayflower hotel, Methodist orphanage. The latter is located
at Sanford. Next we visited Green
Spring, over 100 feet deep: changes
color; water comes from Kentucky.
The turpentine industry is one of
considerable magnitude in Florida.
They tap the trees the same as we
do for maple syrup in *Michigan. The
rosin is shipped in "barrels. During
the afternoon we -visited Blue Springs
and a big hog farm They certainly
are razor-backs, live on acorns, but
make very good bacon.
On Friday we went to Davtona
Beach. No Negroes on the beach
here where RockefeHow and other
rich "boys live. Visited John Springs
•bid attended am illuminated football
game -at night.
Saturady visited some orange
groves, cane sugar mills and poultry
houses and barns. Oranges are ex-

MARK TWAIN
By Lou Evelyn Bowen
(Too late for last week)
The creator of Tom Sawyer and
Huck Finn was carefully studied by
tenth grade English' students last
week. He was, as you all know,
Mark Twain. In our Scholastic for
tliat week it gave a complete outline
of his life in chronological form and
a list of many of his amusing works.
There also was a story which was
written by Mark Twain named "The
Jumping Frog." This was one of his
first stories, which brought him forward to the public eye. Mark Twain's
humor still wears a good deal better
than most of his satirical successors,
because his humor had a heartwarming jollity which makes all
men kin.
Many people have been -wondering
if all we have is tests. We had another such test last Wednesday and
none of us were any too bright after the rollicking good time which
we had at the first basketball game
of the season last Tuesday night.
Like old faithful workers we are
still plugging along in our geometry,
but our foreman, Mr. Clay, makes
us put on our thinking caps and
really cover ground.

We have wondered if a little recognition of the scholastic ability of
students might not interest some in
doing even better work than they
have been.* Accordingly we have selected two lists from the result of
the second period's marks. The first
list will be known as the Honor Roll,
which means that those students
have made a total of at least 12
points" including one A with no failures, counting only solid subjects
(those having five recitations a
week). The points are couiated with
A four, B three, C two and D one.
The other list will be known as the
Honorable. Mention group, and will,
consist" of those who" make St least
10 points* with no failures.

Visited Palm Beach and then on to
Miami. Visited a colored church.
The hurricane did considerable damage but the people soon fixed things

Next we crossed the terrible everglades again to Larazo, where they
spray their vegetable by airplanes
and Ringling Brothers circus is
camped for the winter. Next we visited Tampa, Davis Island and crossed the million-dollar Grand bridge to
St. Petersbug.* This bridge is 16
miles long. St. Petersburg is an
old man's paradise—checkers, bowling, croquet and dog racing being
the main sports; sun shines every
day in the year. Next we visited
Tarpon Springs, largest spring industry in the world; and church, and

The December air was threatening,-when he ran the flivver out, to
take his* sweetie for a spin, along
some country route. He wheeled it
at 60 m.p.h., he took the turns on
high, he drove with all the dash and
vim, as if the road were dry'. He
waved a fleeting hand, as past each
car and truck he sped; he never
slackened . down a bit, for danger
signs ahead. He hit a curve at
breakneck speed, a bit of ice was
there, the neighbors heard a grinding "crash, as he flew through the

Important Points Enroute i and Tells of Scenes and In- djistries of Palmetto State. "Rotarians had the pleasure, at their meeting at The Tavern last -Thursday noon, of listening to Dr. C. O. Woodbridge tell of t"he liigh lights of his recent trip to Florida, and believeing our readers will enjoy it, too, we are passing it along to you: Sunday, November 10, all aboard for Florida at 7 a. m. The weather was moist all day—showers most of the time. On down by way of Milan and Dundee, through -the outskirts of Toledo, to US-25, south. If one follows map of each state he cannot go wrong. We passed through several well- kept towns and cities, all having the appearance tliat the depression is over. The farming country between here and Cincinnati is much like it is around Saline. Crops have been good, still lots of corn to husk, and farmers in their fields planting wheat. We stopped awhile in Cincinnati and""* saw the wonderful railroad station, much like the one in New York. TTrom there we crossed the toll- ibridge to Covington, Kentucky. The country here is very poor—all mountainous, winding roads and mostly Negro huts. Stayed -first night at Lexington. Around there and Lexington the -country is known as the blue grass region. They ship over 1,50*0,-000 pounds of tobacco each year. "Raising sheep, cattle and race horses and making whiskey are the chief occupations. Monday morning it was still raining "when "We left Lexington. Here there are many large estates, big houses, but very few barns*; lots of -corn, ■eiabins -and stone -fences. Had breakfast at Berea, a college town. This "is ran toterdenomina'tional •dmrch school and costs $2;000 "per week for maintenance'; "beautiful *buildings and grounds. *We stopped at *London for a short feme and ^Wie there -visited the court house where the judge was holding court—mostly whiskey cases. 'One iellow said': "That there judge keeps "us in jail all the time for 'being drank.'" % Next we visited Norris dam. It cost $3;000,000; elevation, 1,250 "feet; dams back 53.000 acres so as to prevent floods; shaft cost $43,000, and engineer "was from "South America.; drops "12 tons of cement mixture 'at a time; employs people from every state in the Union, and it will require two 'mure ■years to "complete same. Our next stop was at "Knoxville, Tenn.,- a nice city of 125"000 population. AH 'kinds of mills. Then on to Cleveland, where Clarence Gray Bellemore, erected a most wonderful curly war monument in memory of his daughter. On to Chattanooga, through mountains and parks aU of you "have read about. "Rome, Ga., has one of the largest cotton mills in the south. Stopped at Atlanta, Georgia, Tuesday night. On Wednesday we got as far as Jacksonville, St. Augustine, "and DeLand, near where our cousins live. On Thursday we started to see Florida. Visited Sanford, where more celery is grown than any other place in the world; they also "have a fibre factory, where brooms and brushes arp. made. The great nine trees are all covered with moss. Palms, orange, and some banana trees everywhere. Labor, all colored. Beautiful Lake Monor on the outskirts, the. Mayflower hotel, Methodist orphanage. The latter is located at Sanford. Next we visited Green Spring, over 100 feet deep: changes color; water comes from Kentucky. The turpentine industry is one of considerable magnitude in Florida. They tap the trees the same as we do for maple syrup in *Michigan. The rosin is shipped in "barrels. During the afternoon we -visited Blue Springs and a big hog farm They certainly are razor-backs, live on acorns, but make very good bacon. On Friday we went to Davtona Beach. No Negroes on the beach here where RockefeHow and other rich "boys live. Visited John Springs •bid attended am illuminated football game -at night. Saturady visited some orange groves, cane sugar mills and poultry houses and barns.

Exhaust gases are poisonous due* to the presence of deadly carbon monoxide gas. It is an unseen danger, -tefing tasteless, odorless and colorless. Check the motor exhaust to be sure carbon monoxide cannot leak into the body "of the car. A very little of this gas may numb the senses enough to slow up the body's reaction to the real dangers. In old cars, especially, it is wise to leave a* window slightly open. AT THE FIRST SIGN OF DROWSINESS, HEADACHE. OR NUMBNESS— GET FRESH AIR QUICKLY! DRIVE SAFELY!

He was, as you all know, Mark Twain. In our Scholastic for tliat week it gave a complete outline of his life in chronological form and a list of many of his amusing works. There also was a story which was written by Mark Twain named "The Jumping Frog." This was one of his first stories, which brought him forward to the public eye. Mark Twain's humor still wears a good deal better than most of his satirical successors, because his humor had a heartwarming jollity which makes all men kin. Many people have been -wondering if all we have is tests. We had another such test last Wednesday and none of us were any too bright after the rollicking good time which we had at the first basketball game of the season last Tuesday night. Like old faithful workers we are still plugging along in our geometry, but our foreman, Mr. Clay, makes us put on our thinking caps and really cover ground.

We have wondered if a little recognition of the scholastic ability of students might not interest some in doing even better work than they have been.* Accordingly we have selected two lists from the result of the second period's marks. The first list will be known as the Honor Roll, which means that those students have made a total of at least 12 points" including one A with no failures, counting only solid subjects (those having five recitations a week). The points are couiated with A four, B three, C two and D one. The other list will be known as the Honorable. Mention group, and will, consist" of those who" make St least 10 points* with no failures. HONOR RCim, ; - ' Twelfth".

Sunday morning drove around 5,000 acres of orange groves, and Lake Okachobee. Saw the Bok tower, down near the lake, wliich is the largest inland body of water in" the United States. Here are big vegetable gardens; green corn knee high. Visited Palm Beach and then on to Miami. Visited a colored church. The hurricane did considerable damage but the people soon fixed things up again. Wonderful hotels, Tiomes and boats. Here's where our good President comes for ocean fishing. Next we crossed the terrible everglades again to Larazo, where they spray their vegetable by airplanes and Ringling Brothers circus is camped for the winter. Next we visited Tampa, Davis Island and crossed the million-dollar Grand bridge to St. Petersbug.* This bridge is 16 miles long. St. Petersburg is an old man's paradise—checkers, bowling, croquet and dog racing being the main sports; sun shines every day in the year. Next we visited Tarpon Springs, largest spring industry in the world; and church, and got to our cousins' home at 9 v. m. Rested the next day and on Thursday started north along the beach part of the way from Daytona Beach to St. Augustine, the grand old town. Visited an alligator farm, and the prison.'
