EVANGELIST STARKE
WILL SAY GOODBY
Farewell Meeting Sunday Night
in st. James Methodist
Church.

Lee Starke, who has been making
a fine impression at St. James Meth.
odist church, will conclude his work
here Sunday night, at which time a
record breaking crowd will hear him
IN his farewell address to the people
of Palatka.
Mr.. Starke is indeed a remarkable
man-few men enjoying the wonder
full business he had attained would
sacrifice it to become an humble
preacher of the gospel, but this is an
Outgrowth of his earnest conviction
that people should seek first the
kingdom of God" and he throws all
of his power into the Masters SER
vice. That he has made no mistake
IN thus choosing his work is evil
denced by the thousands who listen
to his earnest, stirring appeals and
are led to give up their lives of
wlckedness for lives of Christian use
tulness. Those who have heard Mr..
SStrak's talks for the past two weeks
have been deeply impressed by his
earnest, and at times eloquent words.
He has spoken the truth without fear
or favor, and although it has cut
deeply, his hearers realize he has
spoken the truth in love, and it can
not fail to bear good fruit.
Tonight his topic will be profit and
Loss, or Would You Trader" 1t
will be talk to business men. There
will be no services on Saturday. Sun
day at II a. m. his topic will be
Seeing Jesus" At 3 p. m. he will
address the men of Palatka, but
everybody is invited. The subject
will be, "a Heblsw Hero" Mr..
Starke announces that this will be a
straight from the shoulder talk to
men. And for the farewell service
the Great Union Mass Meeting at
7 p. M, his subject will be, "The Old |
Ship Zion" Everybody is invited to
this farewell service to Mr.. Starke.
This will no doubt be one of the
most notable services ever held in the
st. James Methodist church. To ac-
the crowd the doors will
De open at $50 o'clock.

Capt. John y. Gibson, whose home

was a secret service detective. was

ington, D. C., it is shown that the growth rings in the big trees of Cali fornia indicate that in general the same sequence of climatic changes took place in California and Asia Minor. Curves indicating climatic conditions in California and Asia Minor show a remarkable resem blance between the two regions.
 "The curves begin with the epoch of the Trojan war about 1900 B. c. There both curves dip very low in- dicating an epoch of sudden and severe dessiccation. That particular period, historians tell us, was one of tho most chaotic in all history.
 "The famine in the days of Elijah appears in both curves. Apparently at that time the climate did not be- come extremely dry, nothing like so bad as it had been a few hundred years earlier during the twelfth cen tury, but there was rather a distinct falling off in the amount of rainfall as compared with the uncommonly good condition of the preceding century. About 700 years before Christ both curves stand high in the day when the Greeks were laying the foundation of thelr future greatness and the en- pires of Mesopotamia were at their height. Then comes a pronounced falling off, with recovery 300 or 400 years before Christ, another decline culminating about 200 B. c. and re- covery reaching high point about 50 BIG.
 "The time of Christ, the great era of universal peace under the sway of Rome, was apparently an epoch of favorable climate, tune of abundant rain and consequent good crops in all the countries around the Mediter- ranean sea and eastward in Asia, as we'll as in California. Next comes a long period of decline culminating SIX or seven centuries after the time of Christ. No period in all history, save that which centers about 1900 B. C., was more chaotic, and that early period also appears to have been a time of greatly diminished rainfall"
 The publication which may be pur- chased from the superintendent of doc uments, government printing office, for five cents, gives detailed account

Bible Proof in Trees.

Biblical history has been recalled by the forestry bureau of the government to assist in advertising new pamph- let it has just issued on the giant trees of California. The tree scientists have discovered in the giants of Cali fornla trees what they claim to be un- mistakable proof that the great drought and famine in Palestine, in the days of the prophet Elijah, S7O years before Christ, was equally felt on the Pacific coast of the United States. However. the press agent of the bureau of forestry tells his own story in the following languages:
 "In the days of Prophet Elijah sore famine afflicted the land of Palestine. No rain fell, the brooks ran dry and dire disaster prevailed. "Go through the land, said King Ahab to the prophet, Obadiah, unto all the foun- tains of water and unto all the brooks; peradventure we may find grass and save the horses and the mules alive, that we lose not all the beasts.
 "When Obadiah went forth in search of forage he fell ID with his chief, Elijah, and brought him to Ahab, who greeted him as the troubler of Israel Then Elijah prayed for rain, accord ing to the Bible story, and the famine was stayed. From this famine in Palestine, some 7SO years before Christ, to the forest of the Sierra Nevadas, in the twentieth century, is far cry, but the connecting link be- tween the past and the present, be- tween the ancient east and the modern west, is found in the big trees of Cali fornia, the huge species known as Sc. quoia Washingtonia.

Government Sells Timber
 m California and Arizona.

Two sales of government timber, az gregating over 51 ,000, ,000 feet, are an. nounced by the U. $. forest service. The LaMone Lumber and Trading Company contracts to cut 2S,3O0.O00 feet of saw timber from the Shasta national forest of California, and the Saginaw and Manistee Lumber Con- pany of Flagstaff has purchased 24,- 3OO,OoO feet of green and dead pine and fire timber on the Tusayan national forest of Arizona.
 The California sale includes several kinds of timber, at the following rates per thousand feet: 325$ for sugar pine, 2.25$ for yellow pine, l.25$ for Douglas fir, and 50 cents for other species. The cutting period is nine years, subject to readjustment of stumpage rates in 1918.
 The area on the Tusayan is near Williams, on the Santa Fe lines, which furnish ready access to the general markets. The timber is to to be cut prior to December 3l, 1915, and the contract price is 2.5O$ per thousand feet.
 In both these sales the timber will be cut by the mpanies in conjunc- tion with timber owned by them in the vicinity. The government expects to get an approximate gross return of l5,000$ from the two sales, of which
