On that day Florence vot ers will choose a mayor and city 'council to administer the affairs of Florence for the next two years un- jder the commission form of govern- tnent. On April 10 also there is to pe voted upon the question of issuing bonds to retire the Indebtedness on thp city schools, a debt that has al ready been incurred by unanimous (expression of a great mass meeting, and a debt that can more cheaply be retired with bonds than without them. Only two more days remain for registration for these elections. Friday and Saturday. There are many people in Florence who have not prepared themselves to vote. They are urged to attend to this duty now so that they will have the oppor tunity of voicing their opinion at the polls on April 10. TY TAXES. INCLUDING POLL TAX.

As the boys go by these opportunities unfold themselves, sometimes too late, howevfty to be realived. Fortunately we are awak ing to Ahis fact in Florence and it is not likely that tbe business men of this city will allow themselves to be come mere witnesses of the great march that .progress Is making throughout the entire country. Hard hit. everybody knows that, but it Is a mighty poor man that takes the count, and It cannot be Intimated that anybody here is ready to see the towel drop.. In the past we have been tdo much In the receptive mood, re lying too strongly on what geography and the Atlantic ('oast Line have done for us. In the meantime other towns find cities less favorable have been going after things. That is what we will have to do here. There was a time when we did not believe in exemption of taxes and free sites «for manufacturing enterprises. Just low, however, we are strongly tempted to declare for tax exemption, if legal, and do absolutely declare for the proffer of locations for worthy business enterprises which would en joy with us the great advantages na ture hafi blessed us with. There are many rten In Florence well able to donate gltes for enterprises, and.tho selfsamp men would reap the har vest frOpi the increased business, in creased'valuations which such enter prises 4ould bring.

The Largo represents the slow movement of the symphony jn one of its most beautiful manifestations. Morning, with its simple re teration of a single short theme is a characteristic num ber of a suite rather than ate. orchest ral movement. The Minuet, taken from an opera is simpler and more dance like than it would he had it been i included in a symphony or a suite, The Two Grenadiers is a fine ex Some peoole are lucky.
