Parker , In response to your request I take pleasure in giving the "Advance - Times" readers some inforMation re- speeteng 'Florida and of that section which I recently visited To leave Wingharn during one of the worst January blizzards with tem- perature at ten below zero and arrive after only foety-eight hours of travel in a land where the sunshine is warm and fruits and flowers are plentiful is indeed a,pleasant and interesting ex- perience. • The trip dowe is lacking in interest, especially in. the winter season, until one comes to Sonthern TennaSsee. Michigan, Illinois and. Indiana were in the throes of winter and I noticed ice ort tele ponds in decreasing amounts as far south as Atlanta, Georgia giving evidence of the severe blizzard which had just swept the country. South of the Ohio river one is im- pressed with the apparent poverty of the land as shown by the farm hous- es and general character of the farms. These are dirty; the remains of last season's crops are still in the fields and no Fall fallowing is in evidence. In Kentucky, tobacco and corn fields and in Tennessee and Georgia, cotton and. corn fields await the Spring for a clean up,' Dead weeds are high along the fences and the majority of the farm houses are poor and the barns are wretched. In hilly country the land is badly gentled and it was no- ticeable in sloping ground how the farmers, had built and maintained grassy ridges to offset the formation of gullies by the heavy rains. Alto- gether, the appearance of the Ken- tficky and Tennessee farms would not appeal in any respect to the farmer from Ontario, In Southern Tennessee the country becomes mountainous; richly wooded and ruggedly picturesque. "Look -out" mountain. of Civil War fame rises ai. rectly on the right as one enters Chat- tanocfga. It is a 'high _ridge, well - timbered arid taken with the general roughness of the country, leads the imaginatiOn back to the sixties and the days when brother fought brother through this mountainous land. Man\ small cerrieterics can be seen as one passes through. these southern States, mute evidence of the Civil War. ' Georgia is rough, pine covered and thinly peppled. Judging by the farms and farmhouses the land. is not tillecl very thoroughly and nia,y possibly be largely in negro hands. The pine forest continue into Florida and lum- ber camps and turpentine -refineries are her and there. To prepare thc pine tree a section probably four feet long, seven or eight inches wide and two inches deep is cut out near the base,- the strip cut to a point and. the turpentine drip from the tree is guid- ed by metal insets into an earthen- ware Jar resembling a flower pot. The turpentine and lumber industries are important ones in the South.. After skirting the north of Florida, Jacksonville, the gateway of the State is reached. Its splendid Union sta- tion with commodious :waiting, room and long platforms furnishes excell- ent accomodation for the thousands of touriste en route to a warmer lati- tude. The lunch room provid.es a good meal but one pay,s a real price for it, while three blocks uptown the same breakfast may be had for one cinarter the price. I3utesuch is Flori- da! Many, , institutions run for the .inter season only but in tnat time ,nake a whole year's profit. They tell us that the average temperature .of Jacksonville is 55 degrees in January and 82 in July . Leaving Jacksonville I entered the last lap of my journey, my destination being. Daytona on the Florida East Coast R. R., just el° miles south of !he former city, The most interest- ing town on this part of the joqrney is Se Augustine.which teems with 'his- toric interest. I will refer to St. Au- gustine again. At Hastings, 55ertailes south, is the cenre of a potato krowing coantry. Negroes were preparing and planting seed for a second crop this season. Here I noticed for tbe first, oranges on the trees, and palm trees in the for- ests were almost as numerous as the pines, • At Daytona . the orange, grape- fruit and strawberry crape were ripe. The green grocer kept a plentiful supply of green peas, string beans, lettuce, celery, (abbage, spinach end Coma -roes always on hand to feed the hungry Northerns, familiarly called "Snowbirds". Many plants and shrubs were in fell bloom. The bril- liantepoitisettia—Floridals State Flow er—wae 'prominently in evidence as were also our moee familiar garden flowers etich as sweet peas, *stocks, marigolds and nasturtiums. These beautify the. streets and homes while the wide spreading live oaks drippieg with feathery Spanish moss afford. .plenty of shelter from the suit Marty species of the tropical palm ornament - the wide averiues and grounds throughout the city. The soil is eatt- ,dy and resembles Wood ashes itt con- trast to the brick red clay ofKen- tucicy and Tennessee. Since gras, dors tiot grow sticcessfully itt this soil Italian' rye is planted in the fall on the lawns to take its place.

Lath last for $35o For this offertce fee was arraigned at the Spring Assizes attt Walkerton last week; and after a trial, which lasted from Mon- day till Thursday afternoon, was ad- judged by the jury as guilty of the crime and was sentenced by thei Hon, Justice, Mowatt, who presided, to four years in Kingston peaitentiary. Two other charges, that of cashing a forg- ed cheque at Dungannon on Nov. es bat and of forging another party's name to the paper, had been indicted by the Grand Jury, were not pressed against the accused, in view of the outcome of the Walkerton case Mr. C. S. Cameron, K. C., of Owen Sound, who appeared for the crown. and Mr. B.G. Tucker, also of Owen Sound, who defended the prisoner, put up a stiff forensic battle over the affair, the prisoner's counsel try- ing desperately to establish an alibi by producing evidence te show that Gamble was elsewhere on the- day 'of the Walkerton forgery, while the Crown countered this by intimating that the prisoner was crafty and with his car could get about quickly from one place to another, and hence might be seen at different points within a, very short space of time. They produced unmistakable evi- dence to show that Gamble was in Walkerton on the day of the forgery despite his protests that he wasn't in Walkerton at all that day. ,Owing to the splendid. reputation that the prisoner had harne prior to his apprehension for the Walkerton case, together with other sensational' accusations that followed on the heels of his arrest fora the forgery ordina- tion here, lent peculiar interest to the case and resulted in the Court RooM being practically filled with spectators from the opening of the trial to the sentencing of the prisoner here last week, The charge of passing the forged cheque at Walkerton, which was the first of the triple complaints on which the accused' was indicted by the Grand Jury, set forth that he had cashed a cheque at the Bank of Commerce there .on. Nov lOth !eet that had been drawn up on the •Mol - son's Bank, Lucknow, purporting to have been made out by A. McKinnon in favor of one, Burt Thompson, which latter person Gamble repre- seated himself- to be at the Bank. Mr. D. Robertson, K. C., who Was the first whines, identified Gamble as the man who had come to his of- fice and represented himself as Burt Thompson, and after havittee hint draw up some mortgage papers, got him to ,identify him at the Bank, • Miss Cora W.ettlaufer, stenograph- er Mr. Robertson's law office, posi- tively identified the prisoner: she hav- ing taken special notice of his double set of false teeth. Idr. L. G. Crozier, *tanager of the Bank of Commerce,. aad Mn Jas. Van de Water, accountant, in the same Bank, were equally certain about Gamble 'being the party who cashed the cheque in their Bank. Mr. Sam Mills, accoaintant in the Bank of Montreal, identified Gamble as the man who tried to get two cheques cashed at his Bank the same clay under Thornpsone's signature. Mr. Markle, Manager of the Ont. Savings Bank, there, told of a party claiming to be Burt Thompson trying to get a cheque cashed at his Bank on Nov. teth, but coaldn't swear to his identity, Jerome Bruder, cashier at the Bank of Commerce could identify the che- que but not the prisoner.

High School Literary Society The regular meeting of the Wing - ham High. School Literary Society was held in the Auditorium of the High School on Friday' afternoon, March 2/st., 1924, the president Mr. Harold Mitchell in the chair. Miss Louise Hanna the secretarSe read the minutes of the preceding electing which were adopted as read. The business part of the meeting discussed the regular literary and musical pro- gram was commenced. Vocal Duet --Miss Eva Rintoul and Mr. Wilfred Robinson. Selectionfrom the High School Glee Club, "The Forest Greeting" Then came the chief feature of the program ,the debate "Resolved that the reading of magazines and newspa- pers is more value than reading books". The affirmative upheld by Form II was taken by Mr. Morris Christie and Miss Cora Dickson. The negative was taken by Miss Mildred Frohman and Mr. Stanley Harrisot of Forrie IV. Piano Solo—Miss Muriel Redmond. Reading—Miss Caroline Webb. Reading of the Journal by Miss Dorothy Snell. Instrumeetal Duet'—Miss Eva Rin- toul and Marion Mitchell. The judge's decision was given by Mr. A. H. Musgrove in "favor of the negative side upheld by Miss Froh- ma.n and Mr. Harrison. Mr. Harold Mitchell gave a shore address thank-- ing each person for his or her part in aiding the society during the past term. Critics Remarks by the Principal, Mr. G. L. 13rackenbury, God Save the King, a Only Touches High Spots Provincial Officer Phippen and Mt. Arthur Haines were driving . out the lane from behind the Methodist Church, the other afternoon when one side of the cutter slipped down on terra firma where Mr. McCool had carefully scraped the sidewalk clean, but alas the other side of the cutter was high and dry on the winter's ice and snow. Seeing the cutter tipping Mr. Haines decided it would,be much better to fall on the softer substance and he had only two choices the side- walk or Mr, Phippen. He chose the latter. Mr. Phippen's "rabbit" decided that it was no safe place for her to be and she'bolted with the cutter on its side. No one saw 'the horse go around the corner at the Baptist church in fact there is a doubt whether it did or not, as the owner holds some very creditable cortificatei which the ani, mal won for jumping high hurdles. Mr. "Billie" Gray who was near the scene is of the opinion that the horse cutter and all flew over the Baptist church and that it was while up in the air that the cutter turned right way up. Anyhow in the twinkling of an eye the horse and cutter was fly- ing up Edward St to the park Peo- ple who saw the runaway claim that the little driver was easily doing a couple of miles a minute. Strange to relate when Bailiff Phip- pen and his passenger got the horse land cutter there was not a scratch on either, but the horse had pulled her 'shoes off.
