tr t Editor's Note: This is the fifth of a series of articles by Myrtle Wood dealing with experiences and sights view ed while on a recent farm tour to Nassau. Bahamas. BY MYRTLE WOOD We docked at Miami at 8 a. m. and proceded to tour the city in launches and buses. Florida has been spoken of as BMI Abstracts of Title "Title Insurance" THOMAS W ALLING CO. Plattsmouth, Nebraska "The Land Undeveloped and the Home of Houses." We looked at houses roosting millions of dollars. The es tate of James Dearing is quoted at 16 million and blocks of ho tels are multimillion dollar en terprises. In the mid west the standard house consists of a kitchen, liv ing room, and a bedreoom or two, to be lived in 365 days a year. Many of the mansions we saw are occupied by the own ers onl a few weeks each year. The Florida air is balmy ex cept when a hurricane sweeps m and the swimming is glor ious. One Nebraska farmer, how FASTEST KNOWN PAIN RELIEF FOR ARTHRITIC, RHEUMATIC yiCTIMS-NOW AVAILABLE Seven "Film-Coated" Ingredients Offer Positive Relief The crippling, torturing, twisting poin of Arthritis and Rheumatism may soon be for gotten, thanks to an exciting new labratory discovery named Ar-Pan-Ex. Ar-Pan-Ex was perfected by a noted scientist of a world-famed university, working with all known facts about these crippling ailments. The result is a safe, eosy to take tablet that promotes the fastest relief known from that stabbing agony. Ar-Pan-Ex is compounded of seven active in gredients including a special new medicine to help provide longer lasting relief. Ar-Pan-Ex exclusively perfected to curb chronic, deep seated pains.

Swelling, stiffness and soreness may jeera to be miraculously eased when Ar-Pan-Ex helps the system throw off excess Uric Acid that can also aggravate pains. Nothing Like AR-PAN-EX Nothing ever offered before can bring results faster, more effectively or with longer lasting benefits than Ar-Pan-Ex. It may mean a renewed life of usefulness and pleasure to millions. Ask for genuine Ar-Pan-Ex today ot any drug store for the kind of relief no other product con claim to equal. If your druggist is out of it, he wiii be glad to order it for you. ever, said when he got home he would have to pump the wat er but he could soak up then. There should be a solution to this surplus water problem. Per haps the houses cast such big shadows the water can't evap orate. My own first house cast no shadow and the grasshoppers swarmed up and ate the vege tation off the top of it, but if the same type of architecture were followed here, the sharks could come in and eat the people. Maybe it could be in cluded in the building plans that all displaced water was to be pipelined to arid regions. This would tend, to bring parlors and kitchens closer together and also allow the Midwestern far mer to bask longer in their sunshine without endangering their life savings. We took the train for Jack sonville and boarded buses for St. Augustine, the oldest city in the United States. The next trip was to the Mar ine Studios Aquarium. This has been constructed for a tourist attraction of huge open tanks in which has been reproduced the deep sea world containing a big assortment of Marine ani mal life. Three hundred port holes allow the visitor to view the interior while sea divers go down to feed the fish and huge porpoises jump their length into the . air to catch a fish from an attendants hand. We then went west to the University of Florida at Gaines ville, where we saw two cattle set ups. One was pure bred and the other, a research to see what level of fertilization is best for ; pasture. About 4 Brahma maintains size and heat adapt ation of the cattle and generous fertilization of grass makes for pasture1 and silage where there is an absence of grain for feed.

He was going to pick uo the school chil dren in the sled. As the storm hit it seemed to pick up big drifts. There were 10 children loaded onto the sled. A blanket was thrown over the children and the teacher laid on it to keep the children covered. The driver could not see the road so they relied on the old black dog that always went wherever the horses went.
