Abstract

Florida Aftermath
Villard, Henry S. | June 6, 1928 issue

add to cart   close window

To the feverish boom days of 1925 and the hectically unsettled conditions of 1926, Florida today presents a contrast at once refreshing and depressing. Coolness and sanity remain. But the southern part of the State at least, which went considerably crazier than the rest, still suffers from the weakness of convalescence. The first thing that strikes the returning traveler who has let the boom-end and the hurricane intervene between visits is the difference in transportation facilities. The clean, pleasant towns in the central portion, like Deland, Sanford, Orlando, and Sebring, have an aspect of quiet prosperity.
