In order to make it the success that it should be all will have to root to beat the band. DON’T FORGET THAT THIS CITY WILL CELEBRATE The committee of the whole appoint ed to pull off a Fourth of July celebra tion here, met Thursday night. Ev erything is in splendid working order, and there is no doubt that the matter will be a success in every way. A FINE TOMATO GARDEN Last evening The Leader man was introduced to one of the finest toma to gardens that it has ever been his good fortune to see. This garden is in the rear of the local express office and is the property and pride of Agent W. C. Epps. It consists of about twenty plants which stand from four to six feet high, bearing from 12 to 24 of the finest tomatoes each that have ever been raised anywhere. There are several immatur«#tomatocs there that will easily tip the scales at one pound each, and the flavor of the fruit is far ahead of any on the mar ket. We can talk this way because these tomatoes are not for sale. Mr. Epps has staked the plants so that they are kept off the ground; and the wisdom of this plan is shown by the fact that he has one plant that was not staked but left to grow as it wjpuld. On this plant there is not even a sign of a tomato, though it was of the same seed and had the same class of fertilizer and care of the others with the exception noted above. Sure ly this is a tomato country. _ i Some fellow stuck a sign up in this o ce worded like ,this: “NO HUR RY, DON’T WORRY.” Pretty good advice for the other fellow, but we wonder how many can pull that stunt. A booster remarked on the street the other day that changes in business firms usually means that a town is getting ready for a boom. If there is anything in that, Tarpon Springs ought to rival Jacksonville in the way of population within the next year or so. Nearly everything in town has 'changed ownership.

NOTICE ■:M I wish to announce to my friends and the public generally that I have purchased an interest in the Pinellas garage and will be glad to see them any time when in need of work. We propose to render the best of service. 6-5-3 t. THOS. B. GUTHRIE. Papers printing advice and lectures to boys and girls are wasting their space. Boys don’t read the papers at all and girls read only the society reports. Those few who may read the Solomonic admonitions of the press, pa yno attention to them. — Punta Gorda Herald. The Herald might add to this that the wise old guys that spill long lec tures to the boys and girls, when they get them cornered, are also wasting tjme. While they are being lectured and advised, all the children think about is how soon can they get away. —Ocala Star. And when some fathers buy a book for their boy they get something like the history or biography of some fos sil, Blackstone commentaries, or other like stuff, instead of giving them on* of Zane Grey’s stories or Empey’s “Over the Top.” Then they wonder why the boy wants to stay out at night, and cannot be interested in the church or the Sunday school. As we have said before, the boy is a far bet ter judge than the man. Let him have what true nature craves and deserves. In a little while the father may dO' well to follow in the tracks of the son.
