The Dawn of Christianity As Described in
 THE NEW TESTAMENT
 Translated from the Original Greek.

1 in secret have said nothing. 21. Why askest thou me? ask then which heard me, what have said un said.
 22. And when he had thus spoken one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the higf priest so?
 23. Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if we'll, why smitest thou me? l "A. Now Annas had sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high pirest.
 25. And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore unto him. Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said, am not.
 26. One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear Peter cut off, saith, Did not sec thee in the garden with him? 2. Peter then denied again: and immediately the cock crew. 2S. Then led they Jesus from Gaia phas unto the hall of judgment. and lit was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover.
 29. Pilate then went out unto them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man?
 30. They answered and said unto him, If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up unto thee.
 31. Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye him, and judge him accord ing to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful -or us to put any man to death:
 32. That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, signify ing what death he should die.
 B. Then Pilste entered into the and said unto him, Art thou the King Of the Jews?
 34. Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of myself, or did others tell it thee of me?
 35. Pilate answered, Am I Jew Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: wnst hast thou done?
 36. Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.
 37. Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou king then? Jesus answer ed, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth hearet.t my voice.
 3S. Pilate saith unto him. Wha, IS truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no fault at all.
 39. But ye have custom, that I should release unto you one ar the passover: will ye therefore that re- lease unto you the King of the Jews

The IiGcs.

There is little room for doubt about the theory that the tides are due to the moons action upcn the surface of the water. Of course, there are other influences, tho sun, for instance, exer. cising no mean force upon the tides; but the chicf influence is attributable to the moon To be sure, there is hardly any theory that is not objected to by somebody. but the theory that tidal action is due mainly to the pull of Luna may be accerted without a reasonable doubt"

some sixty British officers and 1,40v men went to their death.
 While the Hawke was laid down m June, 1889, she was launched at Cha tham on March Il, 1891.
 Among her officers at the time of this disaster were eight naval cadets.
 Other British warships lost since the outbreak of hostilities are the cruiser Amphion, which was surx in the North sea by mine August G., and the cruiser Pathfinder, torpedoed ln the North sea September 10. The loss of the Hawke makes total of six British cruisers destroyed by Ger many in the North sea since the be- ginning of the war.

THE RETURN OF PROSPERITY.

There must be some good ground for believing that business conditions in the United States will return to normal in short time, else the lead ing financiers, including the secretary of the treasury, the country's greatest business men, the financial journals and the leading newspapers, the puisef.sders of the nation, would not be so cocksure about it. Here is a sample utterance, from the Birming- ham Age-Herald:
 "The European war, at the start, caused confusion in rne business world. That was in the nature of things. Business conditions in the United States were directly affected. Large Banking affairs had to be ad- justed. For time the money market was extremely tight. The cotton mar ket was paralyzed, and in certain sec- tions there was q note of despondency
 The war w:ll continue for some time. Will the business of the coun- ny be permanently kept down? Not a bit ot it. Tho United States ID a great commercial country would pre- sent a sorry appearance indeed before the nations of the earth if it's leading business men lost their grit. We have been boasl;ng of our great resources and of our ability to "get ahead" to take care of ourselves, so to speak.
 In England business is going on just as if there was no war. Pros perity prevails sthroughout Great Britain. Ireland as well as England and Scotland is thriving. In the United States tho business situation has been improving for several weeks. Adjustments are being satisfactorily worked out. The improvement from now on will he very marked.
 Before the European war broke out a new era of prosperity was coming

Which is to be Profusely IL
lustrated, Grows Daily.
Business Men are Coming to Aid OF
Big Enterprise.

The interest that is being shown In
the Forthcoming Special Illustrated

MISS VIOLA MCLEOD
WINS E[KS' MOTOR
Young Lady lives at Welaka
and is Well-knOWn in
Palatka.

l. Kalbfeld's Grand theater was pack
ed to the doors last Tuesday night for
the Elks' benefit. 1t was known that
the 1914 Hopmobile which has been
on exhibition at the garage of the
Palatka Auto & Supply Co. in this
Lefty during the summer, and on which
1000 tickets had been sold, would be
awarded to the lucky ticket holder. OF
the 1000 persons present at the Thea
ter something like 1000 were hoping
that the lighting would strike them.
! But the winner was not in the audi
ence.
A little after o'clock the Commit
tee of Elks in charge of the draw
ing went to the stage and had the
barrel containing the coupons rolled
to the stage. The little son of Rob-
ert James was called to the stage
to lift the ticket. The head of the
barrel was knocked in and the little
boy with his arm barred, dived into
the barrel and pulled out one ticket.
The boy was blindfolded. The lifted
ticket was handed to Mr.. c. A. Chivers
of the Southern Paramount Pictures
Co., stranger in the city, who read
the number of the ticket.
1t was No. 1,S43, and had written
on it the name, Miss Viola Mcleod,
Welaka.
Of course Miss Mcleod was not In
the audience, but her family is we'll
known as one of the most excellent
in all the county and there was gen.
eral rejoicing that this home young
lady was to have this beautiful tour
ing car.
The editor of the News went to the
telephone as soon as he could get
from the theater and called up Mr..
Reeder's drug store at Welaka to have
him inform the young lady of her
luck. "Thanks," came back the an
swer from Mr.. Reeder, 81 heard the
news a moment or two ago, and have
sent her word"
The lucky ticket was only deposited
in the box on Monday. DR.. H. A.
johnson had been commissioned only
a few days before to buy two tickets,
one for Miss Sarah Bard and one for
Miss Viola Mcleod; he purchased
Nos. 1912 and 1S43. On Monday the
young ladies sent the coupons to Nor
rIis Cochrane of this city with request
that he deposit them.
As Miss Bard only escaped luck by
one number, and as she, too, lives at
Welaka, it is presumed she will get
some delightful rides about the pref
ty country with the winner.
Miss Mcleod is the daughter of MIR.
R. B. Mcleod, superintendent Of the
Wilson Cypress operations on the OcK-
lawaha river, and her brothers are
Messrs. L. ]. and Duff Mcleod busi-
ness men of Welaka, and popular in
all that section. She has one sister,
Mrs. Ed. War; of Georgetown, who
will also get some rides. Miss Nc
Leod at one time attended the public
school in Palatka and has many
friends in this city. She is being
congratulated by everyone who can
reach her in person or by phone.
The Hupmobile is one of the pref
tiest cars made. Its body sits low
and to many this is one of its most
attractive points from the standpoint
of looks. 1t is one of the most de-
pendable of cars, and the present
price of the car which goes to Miss
Mcleod is $1,1OO. The car is sold
in Palatka by the Palatka Auto q
Supply Co., and there are large
number of them in use in this city
and county.

PUTNAM SHOULD
WAKE TO NECESSITY
Of Government Plan for
Farm Demonstration
Work.

The Department of Agriculture at
Washington is not a political machine
The head of the department may be
a politician, probably is, but the de-
partment itself was conceived and Is
managed in the interests of the ag-
ricultural interests Of the country, in
| terests which are first in Importance
to the people.
The department is filled with scien-
tifc farm experts, and there is moth
ing new under the agricultural sun
that these experts are not finding out.
The department is organized to help
the farmers of the country. One If
its latest and best methods brings the
information possessed by the depart
ment into personal demonstration TO
the farmers themselves through eX-
pert agents.
These men are called Farm Demon
strators. The head of this depart
ment in Florida is Prof. c. X. Nc
Quarrie, a pleasant American citizen
of undoubted Scotch descent, VINO
knows farming both by practical ex-
perience, and scientific investigation
as to the "why" of things.
1t is his duty to look after this sys-
tenn of demonstrations in Florida.
The department appropriates S675
annually to any county in the state
willing to supply the additional
amount necessary to secure a practl..
cal farm demonstration for a year of
active work in the county Some
counties pay as little as $325, making
the salary of the expert 81 900 for
the years work. Thirty-three OF
Florida's counties have already made
appropriations and have secured T1ed
County Farm Demonstrators. The
last county to enlist in the movement
was our neighboring county of Clay.
Prof. McOuarrie stated to me
News on Wednesday that $1,000
would secure an excellent demonstra-
tor for Putnam county. OF this
amount the government would pay
S675 and the county $525. These Ge-
monstrators go all about the, county
and give helpful hints as well as ac-
tual expert demonstrations to farmers.
This is one movement in which Put-
Haw county should join.

raging and increasing in violence every
second. The sea-green pillows rolled for
ward with seething foam on their crests.
Each surged higher than the last. II

see which could foam the widest. But
the wild geese were not afraid OF the
swells. on the contrary. these seemed to
afford them mucn pleasure. They did not
strain themselves swimming, but lay and
let themselves be washed up with the
swells and down in the waterdales, and
had tust as much fun as children in a
swing. Their only anxiety was that the
flock might be separated. The few land
birds who drove by. up in the storm,
cried with envy '"rhere is no danger for
you who can swim"
But the wild geese were certainly not
out of all danger. In the first place, the
rocking made tkem helplessly sleepy.
Time and again they wanted 10 turn
their heads. poke their bills under their
wings and go to sleep. Nothing can be
more dangerous than &c fall asleep In that
way. and Aka kept calling out all the
while: Don't go to sleep, Wild geese.
He that falls asleep will get away from
the flock. He that gets away from the
flock is lost"
Despite all attempts at resistance, one
after another fell asleep; and Aka her
self came pretty near doing off, when she
suddenly saw something round and dark
rise to the top OF wave. Seals Seals
