MEMORIAL DAY HOLIDAY WAS

Americus, for the first time, OBJ
served Memorial Day as a complete
holiday and to such extent was it
enjoyed that an effort will doubtless
be made to continue the custom Of
closing the stores on succeeding an
niversaries. Many merchants already
have expressed a willingness to clio ,e

year.
With practically all the stores clos
ed yesterday, the business district pre-
sented a Sabbath-like appearance
Merchants lived up to the agreement
to close their stores for the day. Tha

exercises at the high school audito-
rum in the morning drew very large

auditorium being filled with people
throughout the exercises. AZ

Americus contingent being augmented

trains on the Central, from Macon AMI

the morning, and the visitors wert

MERCER AUBURN
SERIES LANDED
BY AMERICUS
WILL PLAY H. RE IN FUTURE
All Parties Satisfied With
AneFiCuS

Americus scored a signal victory in
the matter of landing the Auburn
Mercer series of ball games for the
future. ALI parties concerned agreed
yesterday after the series had been
concluded here that the series will be
cd here in the future.
The treatment accorded both teams
by the people of Americus and the To-
cal baseball management was such as
to completely win the hearts of the
visitors from both Macon and Auburn.
All were surprised to find such a live
and hustling city here, and as soon as
they had played one game in Ameri

settled upon Americus as the ideal
place for the playing of this series OF
games in the future.
Both Coach Stroud, for Mercer, and
Coach Donahue for Auburn, We're de-
lighted with the cordial reception Civ
en- the players and management hero.
Every courtesy was extended to the
two teams, with the result that Ameri-
Gus is strictly in the swim in the flu
ture as the battle-ground for the rival
teams when the baseball series comes.
"I am delighted with Americus and
the treatment that has been given us
here" said Coach Stroud, of the
Mercer team. Il find you have an
excellent city, good hotel, good

stated. that we are pleased witt
Americus and are thoroughly willing
and anxious to play future series here

Afternoon Game,

By knocking Bloom out of the box
in the third inning, Auburn cinehed
the game, as Mercer was unable to
overcome this lead. Auburn's two tai
lies in this inning were made in the
following manner: Newell, first up,
hit to left fielder who dropped the
ball. Davenport popped out to catch
er Couch hit to shortstop, Newell dy-
ing at second. Moulton asted two
bagger over right-field fence, advanc-
ing Couch to third. Benson hit past
second, scoring Couch and Moulton.
At this juncture Moses relieved Bloom.
Louselle flied out to cellars.
Auburn pushed over two more tai
lies in the seventh, when Major was
hit by pitcher and went to second on
a passed ball, followed by Davenport,
who walked, after Couch had singled
past first, scoring Major and Daven-
port. Mercer's lone tally was made in
the eighth Manly led off by singing
to right field. Marraly famed Wills
went out, short to first. Roddenberry
walked. Manly stile second and third.
Rice hit to left field, scoring Manly.
1t was Blooms first experience in
pitching against a college team, so
that it would hardly be fair to judge
him by yesterdays performance. He
evidently has the making of a good
pitcher in him, if he continues to de-
velop as fast as he has recently He
is only a freshman now. He was sue
ceeded by Moses, who was replaced by
Cellars, when Coach Stroud saw the
game was lost. Mercer's lone tally
saved the Baptists from shut-out in
the last game of the series.

Syndicate

Well pleased with their purchase of
the Easterlin and other lands in Sum-

are prospecting there for the minerals
supposed to be hidden in that locality
Several men are daily employed dig
ging over the great farm of 1900 acres
but they keep their own counsel re-
garding any discoveries made.
The Messrs Easterlin are apparent

land at $4,000, regardless of any
rich discoveries which may be made
there by the purchasers. The Easter
Inns will continue to operate the farm
this year and next.

Of lands in that section of Sumter,
other land owners regard their realty
at much higher value. In fact, it is
said that land boom has set in there,
and CONTIGUOUS realty to that bought
by the St Louis syndicate has ad-

Whether the prospectors have really

EXPERT SECRETARY TO MANAGE
OF THE BOARD OF TRADE
Board OF Directors Of Organization Will Work to Raise
Fund to Retain Expert Secretary Regarded as the
Only Solution of the Question

Regarding as necessary the imme,
diate obtaining of an expert
secretary for the Board of Trade,
with the intention that this secretary
| shall devote all of his time to the work
of the organization, members of the
board of directors of that organiza
ton were authorized at the last meet
ing of that body to proceed to collect
sufficient funds to secure a permanent
and expert secretary
The campaign to raise the funds
needed to retain the secretary will be
gotten under way now very soon, AMI
the business men of the city are cen
fident that the funds needed may b,
raised without much trouble. There is
no other way, according to the senti
ment expressed by many prominent
business men at he last meeting of the
board, for the local board of trade to
be established upon any basis of perm
anence other than for it to be organ
lied in manner of this kind which
will give it more stability and produce
more helpful results.
The plan of membership was als1
changed at the last meeting, so that in
the future the matter of a specified
