Edited by Julia Neal
Well, the up and g> of our Florida
trip has materialized. For years my
husband has been saying, ‘‘l'm going
to take you through TFlorida next
year,”’ and I would smile at the
prospect that never seemed to ar
rive. But his vacatjon time came in
July, and without further promise
the announcement, “Well, we’ll leave
for a tour of Florida on the 22nd
inst.”’ '
My enthusiasm rose as w¢ set out
from Tifton Thursday, m7rning in
the jerky little Chevrolet, headed
for White Springs. Here we lunched
and strolled “down upon the Suwane?l
River,’’ so beautiful in its wander
ings through huge moss-covered
oaks. T loved the place and had my
picture taken right on its pictur
esque banks.
Op the Georgia-Florida line there
was a terrible detour, right in the
worst of which we came upon a
Ford car stopped in the middle of
the rciad while the two young men
occupants ate a watermelon, In our
effort to pass them we stuck fast
in the huge sand mounds, while they
looked on and smiled at our nredica
ment. Gee, but my anger arose as 1
saw the cause of our trsuble making
no effort to help. ut in a secind up
drove a huge car and out jumped
three dandy young men in white
knickers and chivalrously inquired,
¢“Can we help?’’ and at the same
moment both back wheels and one
fromt, were manned by these beauti
ful Yankee boys. Oh how I did love
them! Out we came and on we went
through two miles of this heavy
gand, to the highway. :
After leaving Lake City, roads
were heautiful, even through Eligh'
Springs, Alachua, and to ar!stocratic
Cainesville with its tall moss-¢ vered l
oaks and blooming Hibiscus, naiuml-‘
ly bespeaking for itself a city of cul
ture and learning. More construction
and detours between there and Ocala
where we spent our first night out.
After an early breakfast, we went
out to Silver Springs about § miles
over rough roads. But it was worth
any rough trips and then more to
see the natural wonders revealed in
this body of perfectlyl transparent
water. There we took the glass bot
tom boat rowed by an educated, selt
contained negro man, who told with
interest of the natural pictured con
tents of this marvelus beauly spot.
Besides schools of fishes that would
cat bread from your hands, on the
surface, there were huge ones at the
hottom of caves, measuring depths
frem 40 to 80 feet just as clearly
seen, Greeu plant life and even
blooming flowers, retaining their per
fume, are dif uctly scen 40 feot be
neath the water, where 3slalactit:
reach out over a crystallized white
bhottom surface, and where e petri
fied dinosaur reste,
After leaving Ocala and the long
stretches of desolate I'oking coun
i“'y‘ where apparently not even a
jm-.'mut, could grow, we sped south
through the well-advertised and di
ll»!,‘li‘ll highways to lovely Leeshurg,
'wht‘re the Manng, Winfreys, and
Bacons live and thrive and grow rich,
!Mr. Mann tcok us in his car over
the heautiful lake-bedecked city and
’showed us his store, his threc lovely
Elots where he will shortly huild «
ihamlsome home, “Our people’’ there
are all hearty and happy, and in
fused us with the Florida spirit of
rep and gond will,
We were loth to leave them, asg
turned our attention to Tampa where
we went for Friday night, yeaching
there early enough to zecure a rond
{ room and then to drive through
MY TRIP THROUGH FLORIDA
THE CORDELE DISPATOR
Residence Phone 313
crowded Franklin Street where we
made a wrong turn and the traific
mayp called: “Hey don't you know
you can’t go» that way?’’ ‘‘Yes, but
1 did; tho;’? replied Mr. Dulrett,
and the cop just smiled. Everybody
in Florida offers you a welcome and
a handshake and you just love those
bustling policemen wh» never arrest
you, no matter how green you may
be. '
Saturday morning we crossed the
Gandy Bridge, my second thrill alter
Silver Spirng, and met with the
Whatleys in that beautiful city of
St, Petersburg. They {ook possessin
of us, and we were so pleased to he
taken. They showed us the wonderful
city, the suburbs, the new divisions
and above all, Rio Vista. Oh, bat 1
could have dreamed away a life time
here in all these natural and man
made beauties.
Saturday night we spent in Tampa
cgain with cur friends, the Black
mons. They have recently leased @
spacious rooming house in a beauti
ful part of Tampa. At night we wont
out upop the pier and enjoyed the
bay breeze and the bright lights.
FFrom Tampa we attended church in
Lakeland, and the chur¢h was Tull
of people although the pastor was
away on his vacation. !
From here throgigh Kissimmee we
went to Oralndo and to church at
pight and sa w another big crowd.
People attepd church in Florida as
well as sell real estate, And they
welcome you every where you go. As
we reached the East Coast, it seem
ed to us that God'and nature reigned
supreme, on down, down the high--
way to Miami. At F.rt Lauderdale
we met with young Russell Harris,
in his newly-fitted-up-office spick
and span in ‘his white knickers; and
Le invited me to spend the day and
help' him make a sale, promising to
dijvide profits with me. I had the de
sire 1o stop too! |
But we had to leave our heauty
spot for another, and as we went in
to Miami the beauty spot of it all,
‘and drove right down Flagler street
where cars were traveling (?7) three
abreast, T had the thrill of my life.
Just one wrong turn did that hus
band of mine make, and the dear
police only smile‘l and waved us on.
I tell you I like the cordial gpirit of
Forida. We were the guests during
our stay here, of Miss Birdie Bul
louch in the lovely Valencia apavt
ments. Miss Bulloch is doing busi
ness with the Commercial Bank of
Miami, that bank which had 12 mil
lion dollars deposit last Iriday. It
may have 13 millions by now,
She made Miami a happy place to
us and secured the assistance of Mr.
Wilkes, who took up a whole after
noon with us, showing us the gights
and at the dinner hour we were Join
ed at the table by Mr. Palmer. All
these friends and others are giving
caste to Miami, and helping to mako
it the wonderful place that it is. Al
?nir(liu‘s bank we were reminded of
‘ithn moving pictures we have scen of
IN(:W Yorkk Exchange, only New York
isn’t anywhere. [ cannot write more.
The wonder of it all is bevond my
pen to express it as we came home
ward by the gea route, and enjoye?
the continued beanties and breezes,
I was thinking of home, of Georpges,
of Cordele, with all our producive
lands with all our innate culture
ete. I wondered why we conldn’'t ad
vertise Georgia some, and Cordel
lmm‘e. and awaken a greater interest
|in catrselves, No climate in the worl?
I."ll)‘]bflSSeS ours, right here, take it
'”N‘ vear round. {
I'm home from an interesting trip,
and [ appreciate Ilorida, but 1 love
Georgia more than ever, for what we
are and what we can he—-Let's ad.-
vertise!
GIFTS FOR THE TR‘;\—VELER.
It is the next best thing to going
abroad—cho: sing gifts for iriends
that are going. And next best to
that perhaps, is choosing gitts for
triends that are going just across
the continent or to Canada or :»
Florida—only we don’t often give
gifts to friends going these short
distances.
The thing is that it is fun to give
our traveling friends,
The choice of gift, of course, must
be made with due regard to ihe taste
of the friend who is going away. It
is foolish to give a chronic sufferer
{r g indigestion something to eat. It
is equally foolish to give books to
the man or woman with ap aversion
to reading.
But the shojs offer all s rts of
suggestns so that yeu will have ao
difficulty in choosing something that
is just right. \
To begin with the things to eat—
’und they are usually aprropriatc, as
'nnl many 4 our friends suifer from
chronic indigestion. There are all
sorts of tempting haskeis and boxes
of eatables to be had for varying
prices. Five dollars you can buy a
g wod-looking basket containing a
pound of chocolates, a jar of sugar
candy and an assortment of fine
fruit. For the same price yon «in
buy a basket containing little jars of
jams and a tin of biscuils o eat
with them. Then there are haskets
containing a package of tea, a box of
sweet biscuits, a hox of mints and a
little equirment for boiling water for
the tea—also a teacup, saucer, plate
an spron if you wish. Other food
Loxes and bhaskets have various
packages of cookies and fruit cal:
l with fruit and candies, \
If You Choote Flowers
Flowers are always an acceptable
gitt for the traveler. KFor everyhaody
likes flowers—at least those who do
not are so few and far between that
they do not count.
Mast florists make a specialty of
rranging baskets and Loxes for
travelers. Some of them have cuuel
¢ baskets coed baskets containing a
tin water holder ingidc, so that the
tlowers remain fresh. The flowers
Imust of ciurse be chosen according
to the season. But just remember that
the hardier flowers stand up better
in warm weather. Roses at this
time of year, are so likely to wither
quickly. g
There are all sorts of other things
o give. Books for instance. Some of
the book shops containing books and
magazine —two or three hest scllers
a couple of popular magazines and
perhaps <ne or two travel hooks,
You can, of course, choose yvour own
assortment of books, if you wauant to
and s 9 make your Lox of reading
matter partijcularly apjropriate i 0
the friends vou are giving it to.
And then there are such things ag
leather covered writing pads, Icather
holders for guide books-——and say
what he may, almost any traveler at
times hag recourse to a goid guile
book—and various sorts of toiet ae.
cessories done up for traveling.
There js an interesting chintz
traveling case bhig enough to hold all
your toilet accessories. It is made
so that whep it is unwound it con
be hung on a wall or door, At the
hottom a stiffened extension stands
aut like a shelf, Toward the top there
is a mirrow, so that you ean shave
or dress the hair before it qujte com-
Then There s Coffee

i::uml criffee, puts up a rackaze of
:snmll vacuum hottles of coffec,

l:n're particularly fussy about the soct
