Edmonds. Editor of the Manufacturer’s Record. The marvelous development of Florida, which is now under way and which is attracting nationwide at tention, is, in my opinion, merely a forerunner of the same kind of spirit and activity which within the next Yew years will, be seen to a greater or less degree in every part of the South. Florida has its peculiar and in many respects exceptional advantages, but every other State in the South is in exactly the same situation. Let me illustrate it in one particular case. A Chicago hotel builder, who had constructed many of the greatest ho tels in that.cUy, made a careful in- Wm. McNAB Representing FIRE, HEALTH AND ACCIDENT INSURANCE COMPANIES.

He settled the question for himself ,by selecting b large tract of land just across the kiver from Augusta, £a., on the South Carolina side, and there he proposes to spend $10,000,000 in the construc tion of what he claims will be the finest resort hotel in the country, in cluding many golf links, many resi- dcces and many other modern im- 'provepients, the aggregate cost, ac cording to his statement, to be about 'll0,000,000. I am told that the build- ling construction is now under way. \The owner expects jto complete ik in time for the winter season of 1926-27, , , ^ and it is stated that every one of the f>00 rooms in it has already been en gaged for that winter. This is merely indicative of the spirit that is abroad throughout the country as regards the South. All Kinds of Climate. We hear more of it about Florida than elsewhere, because Florida, its railroads, its business people and its cities have for som- years been car rying on a superb advertising or pub licity campaign. Vim and energy and enthusiasm dominate the situation in that State. They have made them selves felt throughout the nation, but there are thousands and hundreds of thousands of people in America who, for one reason or another, cannot lo cate in Florida, even for the winter. Many prefer a stronger and mere ele vated climate. Some prefer one thing some another. The South provides very range of climate that can be de- •red, fro A that of the South Atlantic and gulf sections to that of the high mountains' of the Western CamlinaV. As it can provide every variety of climate-advantages, it can also pro vide every variety of employment in industrial and agricultural pursuits. Nothing comparable in the combina tion of advantages for material pro-^ gress is to be foffnd "elsewhere on earth. This fact is beginning-to be realized. * The Southern Exposition in New’ York marked a new mile stone in Southern progress. Its greatest value perhaps was not in turning the attention o^ Northern people to the South, but in awakening the peo ple) of the South'to theif own oppor tunities. Out of this awakening'will come quickened spirit^ a livelier im agination and- a complete comprehen- sion of wha't the South has and what it can do in contrast with any sectiorT of this or any other country. Warm ly as the South should welcome brains and brawn and ntbney from other sec- tionlk it should still more WarixUyjwel- come the opportunity which has come to it-to build from within, to build of itself and by itself and by its own power of initiative, and in doing this it will stimulate the people of the North and West to look upon the whole South as they now look upon Florida as a land of opportuntt] Story of South Let me tell a little story which in dicates how the feeling of.the people throughout the country is growing towards the South.

BARNWELL, SOUTH CAROLINA ight, f after an illness for the past fewyears. ' ! irtzog was born in the Salem n Western Church. His little daughter five or six years of age, had never seen snow or natural ice until she went West, for she had lived where the birds caroled through all the win tyr months in their joy in living in such a land, and where the flowers 'bloomed from January to January. One day, during a heavy snowstorm and blizzard in her Western home, the little girl went to her father and said “Daddy, is Heaverr divided, like the.. United States, into north and south? Not catching her meaning, th.' father said: “What do you mean my child? I do not understand you.” And she repeated, “I thought that if Heaven was divided into North and South, that when I get to Heaven that I would ask the dear Lord to let me live in South Heaven.” The expression of the child (and this is a true story) illustrates how millions of people of the North and West feel in regard tq continuting to live in the snow and ice of their coun try. when once they have found a land of charm in n climate where snow and ice and blizzards are rarely if ever felt. •Last winter I heard of a hustling real estate man frorA the West who had located in Florida. Rome friends sent him a picture of his former home buried in snow.

C. I learnecT by actual experience of thF" climate of this country in winter time?" This applies to a large part of the South. Climate Chief Feature. Some months ago I heard Mr. Dar- A win P. Kingsley, President of the New York Life Insurance Company, make a speech in which he emphasized that one of the greatest assets I the South had and which had been little, recogitized or appreciated was its matchless climate. “Its climate.” said he, “is an asset so valuable that ijJx cannot bo measured in dollars andTp cents.” The whole South has that as set. Let us utilize it to .the largest, extent possible and make it widely known throughout the land. There are other assets in the South, however, - .so good, so inumerable, so all-compel ling that when once their extent is understood the southward trend of’ men and money and the activity of the people of the South themselves quickening into new energy and new zeal for their own .county will in the future combine to make the progress of the bust twenty-five years seem-as but the faltering steps of an infant compared with -the mighty strides of the giant. Southern v development,, Southern prosperity and Southern in the infant progress are as stage; their progress to gianthood will be more rapid than anyone today would dare forecast. Dave Hartzog Dead.
