by Tommie Thompson was easily the
feature of the game.
For Palatka tall, six foot, two OIL

THE FEAR OF BEING GREAT
(By Bouch White)

(By Bouch White)
Sounds a bit odd, doesn't it? Sug
gests some slip of the typewriter, OF
a printers mistake? The fear of be
ing great. why bless you," you eX
claim, we're not afraid of being
great. We're afraid we won't be
great"
Nothin gof the sort. You're afraid
to be great. That's what is the matter
with you. And SO long as that fear has
right of way in the organization OF
you, you won't be great. But l can
be harsh with you. There are excuses
for this fear of yours. To be great is
to be greatly a sufferer, greatly mis-
understood, greatly embattled, greatly
aloof and alone. To be great is to
have ones visage marred more than
any man, and ones form more than
the son of men. / hardly can blame
you for net wishing to pay the price.
Washington paid it. And Lincoln.
greatly beset and buffeted Read the
letters of Hamilton entreating Wash
ington to accept the presidency when
that great heart shrank from the task
with an utter shrinking. The dark
days of the war-defeat, impoverish
ment, disloyalties domestic; treason
and foreign 1evy-had worn him
down; so that now he cries out for
ease from the burden. Nor were
they cries without cause. No presi-
dent than he was ever more savageIy
villified.
And Lincoln! Man of sorrows. ac-
quainted with grief. The show of his
countenance witnesses for him in the
matter. Costly the price he paid. The
deep, sorrowful eyes of him, and
stricken face, tell the story. 1t is
known of all.
Yes. You're afraid to be great ::
afraid to stand alone. You chouse to
be like others-float with the tide !:
go with the crowd, swallowed in a
gregarious nonentityl That's the
herding instinct, which deteriorates
men into cattle.
It's the easiest way. And will keen
your soul scrawny forever

MEDIATION PROCEEDINGS
ARE H|NG|NG ON CARRANzA
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, June 3.-The next big
point in the Niagara Falls mediation
conference hinges on whether Car
rama is willing to discuss the Next
can problems, the domestic as well
as the international phases, and also
to declare a truce with Huerta.
Rafael Zubaren, the constitutional
ist agent here, is expected to take UP
with Carranza by telegraph the me-
diators' note asking these questions
1t was expected that CarranZa's an
Swer would reveal his attitude toward
the mediation, which would determine
its extent.
1t is believed that CarranZa, how
ever, will adhere to his position that
the international problems cannot be
reached by diplomacy, and his refusal
to make a truce with Huerta.
The Huerta delegates are appar-
emily trying to smooth the way for
constitutionalist participation in the
negotiations.
The administration as closely
watching Mexican developments.
1t is not known if any effort will
be made to prevent the landing of a
larger shipment of arms for the reb-
els from the Cuban steamer, Antilla.
She sailed from New York for Tam
pico yesterday. -.

CORN CULTIVATION
To the Editor Banner:

To the Editor Banner:
The recent drought that has occur
ed over most of the state of Florida
during the month of May has brought
to the attention of everyone who OBJ
serves the fact that it is all import
ant to hold in the soil as much mois
ture as possible against these periods
Cultivation in corn or any other crop
is carried on for two main reasons
one to keep down weeds and grass,
the other to conserve the moisture
The common practice of giving the
corn three or four civilizations, then
laying it by is not one that the county
demonstration agents recommended
as a general practice. Where there is
done, usually the last cultivation oc.
ours far too early in the season. The
fact that the corn is making a growth
of ear and furnishing out the ripening
period would indicate that at this
time, particularly, it needs sufficient
amount of moisture and enough ferti-
lily to give it the thorough stage of
ripening. 1t has long been observed
that when corn ripens quickly be-
cause of drought, the ears are small
and inferior, while if the growing
season continues and weather con
difi0nc raroain 70 h1a tho OrOWt n
is much better.
There is only one thing needed
that the growth process continues un-
til the growth is made, and that is
that there be a sufficient amount OF
moisture lying against the roots, Civ
ing them an opportunity to take from
the soil the fertility they need.
The cultivation, therefore, should
continue until the ears are we'll made
and almost past the dough stage
since this is the critical time in the
process of corn growing.
1t is probable that there will be a
break in the drought before the ripen
ing period. The rain may continue
for two or three days, and if so, il
would not be advisable to go in i'm
mediately afterward and cultivate
but it would be better to wait for two
or three days as the roots have q
tendacy to come to the surface and g
cultivation just at this time may
cause it to fire and cut off part o.
the yield 1t would be advisable, how
ever, after a shower to immediatel,
cultivate and thereby conserve tn,
moisture and prevent it from escap
ing readily.
Moisture is an all-important prob
lem at this season of the year ant
every effort should be made To con
serve it. Shallow and continued Guilt
walton has been the cause of the bi.
yields of corn that have been nro
duced in the southern states. and /,
is well for the farmers to observ,
these facts just at this season

LEWIS COUNTY
STRONG FOR DRURY

From present indications, the
success of Charles Drury, VIII
sons candidate for congress, de-
ponds entirely upon the vote re-
ceived I'm this city. Practically
every county outside of Pierce
will return majorities for the VIII
son candidate and his success
seems certain IL he can get the
support of his home people.
Lewis county has swung into
the Drury column" says Albert
Schooley, a prominent real estate
man of Chehalis. This change
of sentiment in my part of the
district has been notable from the
fact that Lewis county has always
returned strong republican ma
1orities."
"Our people are for Wilson.
We concede that the fight in this
district lies between Johnson and
Drury. There are no other fac
tors worth considering because
these two men each stand for a
principle of their own Neither
one is attempting to slide into a
fat job on the reputation of a
man, not even of their own party
Drury Is for Wilson. Johnson Is
against Wilson. Our people be-
Iieve in the president and are go
ing to show our approval of his
administration by electing his
candidate, Charles Drury."
