Wonder ii Love is seeking the

his friend the Jedse? Love but re-
Gently was out soliciting support for
Erwin as his successor, and now he
has been re-appointed by Taft. Has
he been giving Stubs the double
cross, or are those two worthless
playing what they think deep polit-
zeal game? If Stubs develops the
greatest strength, Love could easily
resign in his favor; but if so why,
what could Love get out of it? But
the pertinent question remains
Why was Love out working for Stubs
and at the same time seeking reap
pointment from Taft? Is Love a

THE TRUCKERS
HOLD MEETING
REPORTS SUBMITTED SHOW AN
INCREASED ACREAGE WILL BE
DEVOTED TO TRUCK GROWING
THIS SEASON.

A very interesting meeting Of the
Truck Growers Association of the
Roberts, Gonzalez and Powelton neigh
borhood was held Thursday night.
Each and every one of the neigh
borhood was requested to report at
this meeting the acreage and kind of
crops contemplated for the season, and
a good attendance afforded a report OF
several hundred acres
It was found that a considerable
acreage would be devoted to truck
growing and the corn and sugar cane
acreage would be considerably In
creased over any previous year.
The subject of stock Improvement
was debated to some extent, but
drifted into discussion Of advisability
OF a general stock law. A vote was
taken by the members present on
whether a. law prohibiting stock to
run at large would be advisable and
the result showed a big majority ia
vcring such a law
A majority vote was also taken to
request the owners of hogs Of this
community to keep their stock up and
prevent them from destroying growing
crops.
Tt IL the general purpose of this as
ISOLATION to work in conjun ction with
the Escambia County Crop Improve
ment Association and to forward i'm
provement along the lines of farming,
trucking, stock Improvement, better
fruit and more of it and in fact to
build up and modernize the COM
munity In all ways.

JUST BOUGHT
AND CHARGED
A TRAvEsTY ON BOUGHT AND
PAID FOR" WILL BE A FEATURE
OF THE Plum MAKERS EN-
TERTAINMENT.

Those theatregoers who have won
much delight from the travesties that
have been given each season by Mr..
Harry WagenheiTn and Miss Belle Ber-
lin, on the seasons most popular plays
that have appeared at the opera house
win receive with much pleasure the
announcement that as one of the extra
features for the Plum Makers jubilee
Tuesday. April 22nd, another of these
laugh provoking travesties has been
added.
This season Mr.. Levy has decided
on VIM. A Brady's production OF
Bought and Paid For as his selec-
ton for burlesque. appropriating the
title of Bought and Charged" as the
one to more happily catch the well
meaning of his humorous ideas. In
this seasons travesty, Mr.. Wagenheim
and Miss Berlin will be assisted by
Mr.. Willie Brent, one OF the promis-
ing local thespians and naturally with
the added talent, why there IS every
thing to assure amusement lovers
something in the way of real genuine
treat. In justice to Mr.. Wagenheim
and Miss Berlin. 1t must be said that
the lines, dialogue and acting Of
Bought and Charged offer more pos
sfbilities than any Of the travesties in
which they have heretofore appeared,
and every spare moment is being de-
voted TO rehearsals, so as to make
the little play as humanely laughable
as anything seen on our local stage.
Miss Berlin viii wear specially de-
signed costumes for this performance.
and Messrs. Wagenheim and Brent
will follow in detail the apparel of
the original players I'm their respective
parts.

HARD TRAINING

FOR GYMNASIUM WORK.

Physical training is necessary for
the success Of a Y. NJ. G. A. circus.
The stupendously staggering and
astonishingly astounding stunts that
will startle and stun the aggregation
of curious creatures at the Y. NJ. O. A.
circus next Friday night would not be
possible without regular, systemat1zed
gymnas ium work.
The exercise that puts gurgling, gal
lcping ginger into hfeless laggards and
sturdy, strenuous strength and stam-
ina into lassitudinous lasses-exercise
that builds bullying. dubious brains in
bucohc bumps, filing the body with
bounding, rbubbHng buoyancy and
bumptiousness. Try it for ten days
and see how frisky and foltcsome you
feel. The many clowns VIII prove
this assertion next Friday in the be-
wildering, brilliant, brand new show
when those now will laugh who never
laughed before, and daughters self will
hold its sides and roar'-the high wa
ter mark IN circus history.

Broncho feature in 2 reels at Ar
cade and Airdome Friday.-Adv.
Took the Trick.

A conversation relating to the face
of cards the other evening caused
Senator Bradley, of Kentucky, to be-
come reminiscent.
He was reminded, he said of man
from the mountain zone of his state,
who once bought jug of whisky, and
not wanting to carry it around with
him. decided to leave it at the corner
grocery until he should be ready to go
home.
In order that the Jug might be prop
erly identified, the man took deck OF
cards from his pocket, extracted the
six of spades, wrote his name upon it,
and attached it to the handle of the
ing. This done, he happily rambled
forth, leaving the jug on the end of
the counter.
Two hours later the mountaineer re-
turned, and great was his consterna-
ton. as we'll as eloquence, to find that
his jug of electrified spirits had faded
away.
Look here, Jim," he agitatedly cried
to the proprietor of the store. "Do you
know what become O. thet jug o.
mine?"
"Of course do, Seth" was the
prompt rejoinder of the proprietor.

seven O. spades an took it.'-Pitts-

DR.. Wallace at Clinton High School.

Clinton Chronicle, 5th.
The address to the graduates was
delivered by DR.. D. D. Wallace, pro-
fessor of History and Economies, of
Wofford college. He chose as his
subject, Education for Citizenship"
The speaker spoke at length along the
lines of general education in all the
walks of life, pointing out its import
ance, after which he narrowed down
to the keynote thought of his address
that education makes a good citizen.
He showed how the duty is placed
upon every people and State to edu-
cate it's citizens. Said the speaker,
take away ten thousand of@the bright
est minds from our country; men
who can see ahead and conceive, who
can organize and put their ideas in
to operation, and you reduce our peo-
pie to a perfect state of intellectual
paralysis. He spoke of the education
condition in the Southland, and then
bringing closer home, within our own
State, which today stands fifth to
bottom in educational progress, CIV
ing only threh dollars per capita to
the people. He made an earnest ap-
peal for more varied and systematic
system of education in South Caro-
lima. His address was concluded
with a glowing tribute to democracy
and it's father, and an earnest appeal
that the people of this State awaken,
and go forward, and take their place
among the. ranks with other States
and nations that have adopted
compulsory educational system.
His address was most excellent
and mastery one, and was thorough
ly enjoyed by the large audience with
which he was greeted.

Church of the Redeemer.

(Rev. Edward Fulenwider, pastor.)
Nothing. preventing, the following
will be the program of divine SER
vices at the Lutheran Church of the
Redeemer next Sunday:
II a. m. The regular morning ser
vice The pastor will preach on the
subject, "Christ's Reversal of Human
Judgments" Observation and exper-
ience show US that in regard to many
of the real serious subjects of life di-
vine judgment is the reverse Of hu-
man Judgment, and we sometimes be-
come confused. In the 55th chapter
of Isaiah God says, "My thoughts are
not your thoughts, neither are your
ways my ways For as the heavens
are higher than the earth, so are my
ways higher than your ways, and my
thoughts than your thoughts. No
less than five times in the gospel Je-
sus practically uses the expression,
''The last shall be first and the first
last" In this sermon at least four
practical and important subjects will
be presented in which Christ reverses
human judgment
There will be good music.
10 a. m. Promptly at this hour the
Sunday school will begin. officers,
teachers, and scholars are urged to
note the change in the hour of meet
ing and be on hand promptly at 10
o'clock.
The public is cordially invited to
all the services.
