' ftu ' M L ' ' 1 = ? , Nobody's Business ? Written for 'the Chronic!? by Go? McUtnt. Copyright. 1918. A TRIP TO FLORIDA (Part On?) ? A week ago this coming Thursday, the doctor came to see me. Three weeks before, the doctor had permitted me to all up and take notice, aa welt aa light nourishment, and pronounced the In fair ahapo after a tendays wrestle with the flu. ltut thia time I felt "worse" than I felt the other lime, lie said that I didn't have a new case of flu: 1 simply hadn't recovered from the previous case. Beginning with my head, every bone In my body ached and my mouth had gone dry and 1 was crying all of the time about something that nobody could figure out. ?Finally after counting my pulse and thumping my chest and mashing my tongue with u paddle, the doctor turned to the old ludy apd said: "You'd better pack up your husband's remains and take them to Florida." Hhe packed 'em all up, and 1 am now sitting up at Hebrlng and trying to write this piece. 1 am slightly Improved. I caught Bad Cold No. 3 enroute south and now 1 have all of them In one, each operating on different parts of my body, all assisting the flu to finish me up and be done with It. - " ?I arrived In Sunny Florida just i days after the freeto of the century had done Its terrible work. The whole state looks like It was singed and seared Over. Nearly all typeB of shrubbery and apparently a goodly number of the orange trees are as dead as the N&A. All vegetables, except possibly cabbage, were killed, but Florida Is now digging out. At {his time very little fruit is being shipped; folks are just waiting and hoping. Some say that the orange and grapefruit crop is damagod only about 34,000,000 boxes, equal to 10 percent. If that Is the case, you needn't worry about your morning grapefruit and orange juice: this leaves about 126,000,000 boxes of fruit to be marketed. ?If you have to pay a little bit more for oranges and grapefruit, you still won't be paying too much. These Florida fruit growers have had troubles similar to our cotton growers. They have hardly broken even for years and years. It's time for some-' thing to happen to help them. Fruit has been grown for a long time at about the same income level that the cotton farmers "enjoy" when cotton is 6 cents a pound. Florida still has much to look forward to; aho can still Jive on fish and tourists and the country is full of both of these necessities. This sunshine is good for the flu, so they say, and that's better than a big cheap fruit crop. (Part Two) ?'On our way to Florida we learned that trucks and buses, both big and little, rule the highway. There are almost as many .trucks on the roads today as there are private and pleasure cars. A large ;number?of the truck drivers have somd consideration for an automobile when it Is bei^ig met, face to face, but When a fellow is trying to pahs a large, lumbering, bungleaame truck, the said truck usually absorbs nearly all of the road, and manages to keep it absorbed. ?Certain types of trucks gladly give you a part of your part of the road. They, the trucks, appear to be driven mostly by men (and boys) possessed of much lndejiendence and indifference. When roads were first built, nobody expected them to take the place of railroads, but they have done that very thing. The railroads ought to put rubber tires on their box cars, and attach a motor to the frontbumper, and get out In the big road and compete with the boys. These box cars wouldn't be in the way of auto travel any more than the present types of trucks. ?If a motorist desires to take his life in his own hands and his wife's life out of her own handB, he might attempt now and then to pass one of the big trucks that own our roads today, but our advice Is to wait till he haB a sure chance of .vetting by alive rather than undertake the risk for "hurry" reasons. It might be a good idea to give the trucks and buses a fee simple title to our present paved highways and then build another set of roads for the general public to use, parallelling, of course, the trucks roads. We would let the trucks gasoline tax (only) keep up their roads, arid the automobile gas . tax would keep up Its own roads. It wouldn't have any roads at all. (They are too hard on 'em). ?If the government would limit the size of trucks, it wouldn't be so bad. We have a socalled limit as to size now, but the limit has been extended and expanded year to year, and now the time has come to reduce that limit to a normal, reasonable, sensible size. We realize that those freight and passenger vehicles have a right to use our roads, and there's no way to help it, but the legislatures we are talking about are those "back yonder" that permitted the size of the trucks to grow to fit the size of the road and the length of trucks to extend as > far as the naked eye of a truck driver can see from his mirror. (Part Throe) ?As I said in my first piece about this trip to Florida. I am down here for the purpose of getting well: When I arrived I had all kinds of aches and pains tmd miseries hi my anatomy; due to flu and colds and a few other maladies. It didn't take me long to decide to pull off my heavies and put on my mediums. You see we came from a temperature of 22 abovo to one of 76 above. A little later on, wo discarded our vest, and the third day brought our BVD's out. Wo are getting along all right, and will possibly continue to do so as long as the hotel man accepts our checks at face value in payment of account. ?It must be perfectly awful to be rich. I sympathize with some of these fine old yankees that have too much money. Think of it:- nothing to do; nothing ,to live for; no place that feels like home for more than a month; no Job to appreciate; nothing to look forward to; no tomorrows, and unpleasant todays. Tho only worrv thev have is that somebody will get some of their money that they don't need. They are all willing to spend a little of it for necessities, when 'such necessities can be proven beyond a shadow of a doubt, but lliey are mighty close: and therein hangB i ir-i the reason for their being rich. ?A moderately rich Northernor 1b more careful about his nickles and dimes than an extremely poor Southerner is about his quarters and dollars. Those folks are thrifty, keen traders, and know how to make money as well as how to keep It. They don't care particularly about a room with bath if the said bath coats 50c per day extra, that is?if there Is a bath on the same floor. It takes us Southern folks to show ofT: we are afraid that If we didn't occupy a room with a bath or two attached that our neighbors back home might And it out. Tbon we would be rulnt for life. ?We have been here 3 days. The cement is gradually, disappearing out of my ears. My 99-year-old lege are becoming useful and H won't be long now before they will be tagged as 50year-olds. The "ohiat" feels like It has only six cuckle burs In It now as compared with 50 chestnut burrs a week ago. We can breathe thru one nostril today: that's a real Improvement. Our pulse is down about 16 points, and our blood pressure hit a now low Xor-tW-week -yesterday don't look like we are crying all the time now, and, thanks to this good old Florida sunshine, wo will soon be able to go back home and go to work and live happy ever afterward.
