McKay, superintendent of the sanitary department said yesterday. "Besides the work the organizations do in getting their men and floats ih line, the police department is worked over time when the parade is moving.

The night before the police department has to put up ropes along the streets and then take them down after the marching is over. But that isn't all. The sanitary department has a big job to clean the streets along which the parade moved. Early yesterday morning we hauled five big truckloads of newspapers that cluttered Franklin, Lafayette and Water streets. And believe me, they were loads, too.

Usually, we move about one good truck-load of trash from that area each night. Y.u can see what a. job it was to sweep up all this litter and haul it out." the board of representatives last night for an additional $50 a month from the city to help operate the tubercular institution in Hillsborough county.

Hathaway, chairman of the state road department, returning here tonight from a tour of inspection of the West Coast section of the Tamiami Trail, announced that the formal opening of the new highway across south Florida would be held April 25. A committee of prominent citizens, headed by Barron Collier, president of the Tamiami Trail association, will have charge of the celebration of the road opening, which will begin in Tamna April 25 and conclude at Miami April 28. D.

McKay, mayor of Tampa, will represent that city on this committee. Thomas A. Edison and Henry Ford, both winter residents here, will be asked to serve as honorary members on the committee. According to plans the road opening will be celebrated in Tampa on the first iay, Fort Myers' the second day and Miami the third day. 2 An anonymous British patriot has given 500,000 pounds to be held by a bank for many years.

Interest compounded and accumulated and the total used finally to diminish Britain's dVbt. One dollar placed at compound interest vhen Christ vas born would now pay the debts of the whole world, public and private, and leave plenty over. It Is a fascinating idea. But Britons directly or Indirectly will pay the compound Interest on the 500,000 pounds. You cannot make something out of nothing, compound interest, or anything else.

Whltaker, which takes these certificates out of the hands of the city legal department and returns them to Tom Keller, tax collector. Once these certificates are handed to the city attorney for collection th; entire amount becomes due. So the resolution not only comes as a boon to thousands of property owners, who will be relieved of payment ojt attorney fees, but clears the legal department of a mass of litigation.

THOSE CHURCH THIEVES "Next thing we know somebody will be stealing a pipe organ or a pulpit out of one of Tampa's churches," a city detective said yesterday.

"I know they would try to steal 'em if they thought they could sell 'em and not get caught." The remark was prompted by a report to the city detective bureau that a burglar entered the First Baptist church Monday night and stole an electric fan, a few song books and other articles that happened to be loose. Several days ago the First Methodist church was broken into, and thieves got away with a typewriter and other articles. with A. J. Hanna as toastmaster.

The luncheon was the bright social spot in a series of lectures and papers given by some of the most able workers in the state. Frederick T. Davis of Jacksonville, read a highly interesting paper on "Neglected Phases of Florida History." Mrs. Minnie Moore Wilson, of Kissimmee, also contributed one of the feature talks, "The Seminole Indians." Dr. S.

G. Coe, head of the history department at Southern was on the afternoon program.
