THE POLK COUNTY NEW!
Children Need Sunlight
for Their Development
Recent experiments on chicks demonstrated
the Importance of sunlight
in iiuman health, particularly as a
factor hfthe physical development of
young children.
The chicks-were divided Into three
groups. All were given the same diet,
but one group was'kept in natural sunlight,
the second In natural sunlight
passing through window glass, while
the third was kept In natural sunlight
and exposed at intervals to strong
ultra-violet rays. tThe
first group of chicks developed
normally. All of the second group?
those that received the sunlight through
window glass?-developed rickets.
Those of the third group reached In
ten weeks the same stage of physical
development that those raised in natural
sunlight attained in twelve weeks.
The rickety chicks were cured when
subjected to ultra-violet ray treatment
Between 97 and 100 per cent of the
children born In the summer and autumn
develop rickets In some degree
by the following spring. Through the
winter the mothers fear to subject
them to the bitter cold; hence the
babies receive their "sunshine" behind
closed windows

By Samuel Ellis
The Atlantic Coas;al Highway,
Maine to Miami, Florida, is now vir1
tually completed?a grnat ribbon of
highway which threads the Atlantic
starboard as does the Pacific Coastal
Highway Seattle to Ssn Diego and
Tia Juana.
This early completion of the Atlantic
Highway is due, in a great
measure, to the unusual development
in Florida during the list two years,
that commonwealth liviag up to her
reputation of progres siveness by
spending mftre than $10,000,000 on
this highway during 1925. Practically
all of the Florida portion of this
new coastal highway is iiow ready for
the army of sun-hunters which will
wend its way palmward during the
next three months.
Eventually the * Coasial Highway
will not end at Miami, l^la., but will
bend around in a gracefi 1 curve over
the Connors Highway snd Tamiami
trail through the Everglades, and to
the west coast. Thence it will join
the Gulf Coastal Highway and proceed
up the west coast to Pensacola,
the metropolis of western Florida and
terminus of the Frisco lines southern
branch. This highway will join with
the Old Spanish Trail at Pensacola.
Another extension of the Coastal
1 Highway will be the highway over
the keys from Miami to Key West.
Another year will see wo:'k started.
While the upper end of the Atlan- j
tic_ Coastal Highway pasces through
the'territory which mad; the first
history of the United States, touching
at Salem, staid old Boston, New York,
Washington, Fredericksbu -g and the
cities made prominent in the War
between the states, it has nothing to
offer of more historic value than Florida.
Duval county, of which Jacksonville
is the scat and the gateway to the
South, has just spent $2,00(,000 on its
roads, is spending another appropriation
of $1,500,000, and is considering
bonding itself for $50,000, )00 more.
The Atlantic Coastal Highway will
have an optional route through Duval
county with the completion of the
proposed ocean'side highway from i
Jacksonville beach to the St. Johns
county line. The highway allows
travel on the ocean beach for thirty ;
miles. It affords Southbound tourists
their first opportunity to crive upon
a beach which at low tide is more

than 700 feet wide. Jacksonville is
the lirst point at which access is given
to the only beach of its kind in
the world.
Then the Coastal Highway enters
into the land of Ponce de Leon and,
approaching St. Auguistine, passes
what: is advertised as the "fountain
of Ylouth." It is about at this point
where the Spanish explorer landed on
the peninsula. A little further on
the Coastal Highway passes the his- f
toric gates of St. Augustine, swings
to the left, and the tourjpt finds himself
gazing upon Ft. Marion, the oldest
fcrt in America. This stronghold
was completed by the Spanish in
about 1750. A distinction of Ft. Marion
ib that it never was 'taken by an
enemy. In St. Augustine also is found
the oldest house in the United States.
Going into Flagler county, the Coastal
Highway tourist strikes, at Bunnell,

After passing through New Smyrna

Blue Goose orange, the pineapple,
and almost evefy kind of vegetable

Melbourne is equidistant between
Jacksonville and ivfaaini, because of
this it is known as Midway City. It
is the Atlantic Coast tgrminus of the
cross state highway from Tampa and j
furnishes a junction point for those |
who wish to leave jthi Coastal High- j
way jfor points on thel West Coast.

parks, lagoons and jhcstelries. 'The

hit re.
From West Palm Beach on down to!
Miami tourists on the Atlantic Coastal
Highway find thjemselves traveling
through a sries I'of small towns.
Dade county, at the jextremity of the
Atlantic Coastal' Highway is one'of
the chief contributors to good roads
in Florida, having spent $1,240,000
during the last year.
Although the Atlantic Coastal Highway
will be the main thoroughfare
of the east coast of Florida, there are
many lateral roads which provide for
side trips from the main highway.
One sjit these junction points is Jacksonville,
where the Old Spanish Trail
may be taken to the (western part of
the state. This Trail extends all the
way to Pensacola in jFlorida and on
to New Orleans. I . ~

"In twenty minutes I was better. In

In the morning al) pain was gone."
This is the experience jof a woman
living in Oakland, California, who was
seized in the night with ah acute pain
in her side, alarmingly like pleurisy.
"I applied Sloan's Liniment," she
said, "and now II shall never allow
one bottle to be empty before buying
another."
What is the magic of thii amazingly
effective remedy?
Sloan's sends an increased, supply
of healing blood right. to t^e spot
that hurts?that's what calnquers the
pain. No need to rub. Sloan's does
the whole job. Just pat it on. Quickly
and surely, it kills pain, reduces swelling

Changes are slow or they are violentiy
rapid. For thousands of years
men were content to travel on animals,
or slowly moving, clumsy vel
hides.
And ih less than one century came,
the change to the steam railroad, au- /
tomobile, flying machine, the submar- ,
irie^-and from the messenger on foot
lu wireless. \>
What wiU the race do in the next
l.OdO years?

For real deal/^V real estate observe
New York City. Millions upon millions
are poured tout; no one notices
it.
One man, F. F. French, announces (
a building project to supply living .
quarters tor 800,000 people. They will
be 'housed in buildings towering toward
the sky and covering a small
plot on Manhattan Isldnd. In one
corner of Greater New York there
will be a new little group oI 800,000
people, in itself "one 08' the great
cities of America."
Wh^t will happen if New Cork ever
has a real estate boom?
Cancer, steadily increasing for seventy-five
years, is still on the Increase.
The highest^Cancer death
rate in, the United States is found in
Massachusetts and doctors do not
know why. South CaYolina has the
lowest :cancer death rate. Investigation
of diet, number of unmarried
women, and other social statistics
might enlighten the profession.

All records are broken in freight
traffic. In October railroads carried
more than FOKTY-FOUR BILLIONS
of tons, about a billion tons more
than October; 1924.
The growth of California's fruit
business is reflected in orders for
more than 5,000 new refrigerator cars
for tne union raciiic and- boutnern
Pacific.
Before long, unless a prominent automobile
manufacturer fails in his
undertaking, flying machines will do
a great deal of this refrigerator business,
swiftly and much more cheaply,
making "cold" cars unnecessary.
The fruit will be taken cn board
and carried to a height supplying
natural refrigeration, the plane going
up or down in accordance with thd'
thermometer, and arriving at its destination
with the fruit the right point
for storage.
%Young men now making a living
with independent passenger ' busses
will make a better living -with independent
refrigerator flying cars.

Senator Capper of Kansas, one of
the ablest friends the American farmers
have in Washington, says Uncle
'
Sam might well co-operate with farm
ers tiy. actually Helping them to sell
their grain. High spirited financiers
say this is close to anarchy, but this \
doesn't worry Capper. \ \
The Government helps railroads by
raising rates and compelling the public
to pay. If Uncle Sain can act as
ticket salesman and price booster for
the railroads, why not as ^vheat salesman
for the farmer#? i
