Tomorrow is Sunday, but we will move on as usual, leaving Tampa, the famous city where there are said to be more than 12,000 Cuban and Spanish cigar makers employed, at eight o'clock. While St. Petersburg is a beautiful residence city, Tampa seefflS to be a business canter, the principal ort of entry for the west coast of 'lorida. On our trip tomorrow we will visit Sarasota and Fort Meyers and make the long trip which will bring us to Miami by evening. . But we'll leave all that for another letter which will foliay by lb. Mosher in a few days. CHAS. F. RENICH. Miami, Florida, . , April 28, 1941. After a long and somewhat tiresome ride from Tampa to Miami, which with the exception of a few interesting stops, consumed most of the day, the 515 members of the N. E. A. party rolled into this beautiful city on ,the Bay of Biscayne last night. Fifteen large busses made up the fleet, led by several state police as an escort. As this letter » being written most of the party is at the beach as £he guests of Bernarr McFadden, wellknown publisher, where the editors and families are enjoying an open-air breakfast and those who desire will take a dip in the ocean. From there they will be taken to the Coral Gables Country club for a luncheon at 1 p. m., followed by a sight-seeing tour. Mr. Renich has already told of the highlights of the Florida trip as far as Tampa. In fact, his narrative was concluded about 1 a. m., when he should have had a fur portion of his night's rest. The initial stop down the gulf coast was made at Sarasota, where the first sight that greeted the party was a couple of large elephants, displaying a welcome sign. The presence of these huge beasts is easily explained when we discovered that Sarasota is the winter quarters of the Ringling circus. Winter Home of Circus Before we left this interesting city some of use had reached the conclusion that it is a one family town and that one family is "Ringling." We were shown the home of John Ringling, then the Ringling museum nearby, a $3,000,000 collection, then just after crossing the Ringling million dollar bridge over to Lodi beach, now municipally owned, a wonderful home was called to our attention belonging to a sister of one of the Ringlings. We were told that this home was built for President Harding, but he died before its completion. Lodi beach provided enjoyment for the crowd for about a half hour, with the customary refreshing Florida orange juice being served by local girls in bathing costumes. This beach was the best of any seen on the trip up to that time. • • f "City of Palms? The other main stop of the day was made at Fort Meyers, the "City of Palms," and it surely is well named. The avenue of palms is a sight never to be forgotten. In this city they seem to specialize on palms, having 133 different varieties, according to our hosts. The most beautiful, of course, is the Royal, and it looked as if everyone in Fort Meyers must have one or more. Fort Meyers is the winter residence of Mrs. Thomas A. Edison, her home being called "Seminole Lodge." Mrs. Edison had just left for New Jersey the day before, otherwise she would have greeted the editorial party. Mr. Edison perfected many of his experiments at Seminole <Lodge, and worked there on his idea of synthetic rubber. His workshop, however, was moved to Ford's Greenfield Museum at Dearborn, Mich. Mrs. Edison has just completed all arrangements for the erection of a large library and museum on the same spot where her late huBband's workshop stood. A lunch was served to the travelers at Fort Meyers, consisting of barbecued ribs and what goes with them. According to the papers recently the government is contemplating the location of the largest air base in the country at Fort Meyers and the citizens are hoping, even praying, that it will materialize. Drive Through Everglades We were told that the trip through the Everglades would be a tiresome and uninteresting ride, so several in the bus leaned back and prepared themselves for a nice rest and snooze. Those who remained conscious, however, discovered that it was well worthwhile. About the only humans seen along the way, which was better than a hundred mile run, were Seminole Indians. How they manage to exist there with any degree of comfort is beyond imagination. It has the appearance of just one huge swamp, patches of water every few feet. The highway is really a super one as there are no cross roads until reaching the outskirts of Miami. Our driver told us that he has driven through this stretch at night many times and had to dodge the alligators on the pavement. We reached our hotels about 7 p. m., and were informed that the banquet; would be served at the Royal Palm Club at 8 o'clock and to try and be there on time. * Colsc$al Baattaot This banquet was indeed one of the outstanding highlights of the; tour,1 made possible through the courtesy of1 the Miami Herald, Tropical . Park^ Belcher Oil, Miami Daily Newt and' the Royal Palm Club. In a colorful; tropical setting this swank club of Miami provided an inviting atmosphere, with a wonderful dinner, an' exceptionally fine, clean floor show, concluding with dancing to the music of Oscar de la Rosa and his Cuban orchestra. ' A visit to the International Airport, with dinner as guests of the Panj American Air Way System is planned)* for this afternoon. However, those taking the Cuba cruise will have to leave before the dinnerjto hoard the S. S. Hortta, whfch sails for Havana at 7 tfekiflt, a distance of 212 miles. Maybe Publisher Renich will get another urge to write to you from Havana, if time and space will permit, by that time probably inserting a words in Spanish; for instance . "Senorita." A. H.

Excessive pumping is necessary at the present time, indicating that downspouts from roofs may be leading into the sewer system. The present plan is to authorize Mr. Feltz to chart each building in the city and report his findings to the council. It is expected that a substantial savings in operation will result. Dr. Wm. A.
