last Legislature and will go Into effect
soon, changing several important foa
tures contained in the 1912 law.

MOUNTAIN LAUREL SUGGESTED.
Washington, June 2. Representative
Swagar Sherley, of Kentucky, to-day
Introduced a bill, by request, to make
the mountain laurel the American na
tional flower. Representative Stephens,
of Texas, offered a Joint resolution to
the same effect. The mountain laurel.
It 1 suggested, would not coincide with
the requirements of a national emblem
because it blooms Memorial Day, Flag
Day and the Fourth of July.
The ever-growing winter colony of
Naples and Ft. Myers, I" la., will be In
terested in the news from the latter
city that Hertry Ford, multi-millionaire
manufacturer, peace advocate and
presidential possibility, has bought s
winter home near Ft. Myers, adjoining
the baronial estate of Thomas Alva
Edison. The Ford tract is on McGregor
boulevard, the splendid roadway that
stretches from Ft. Myerrf to Punta
Rassa, along the Caloosahatchle River
to its confluence with the gulf.
Although no details of Mr. Ford's
purchase were given. It Is believed that
be will lay out a magnificent park and
villa, paralleling that of the great In
ventor, his neighbor. The west coast
will thus become the winter roecca of
scientists and the like, since Mr. Ford
and Edison are members of the Naval
Advisory Board.
