DEPLOUE CARD PARTY BY
ANTS TO AID RED Cross

To The Editor of THE EVENING
JOURNAL.
Dear Sir. see by the papers that
the Anti-Suffragists are getting up a
card party at the Hotel DUPONT for
the benefit Of the Red Cross Society.
II strikes me that they are adver-
Using themselves at the expense of
the Red Cross Society. Political at
titudes should have no place where
charity is concerned, and where
charity is so much needed as at the
present moment in the most dread
! ful war Of the worlds history
This action of the Anti-Suffragists
cannot but be deplored by all fair
minded and charitably inclined citi-
zens.
] Yours very .ruiy.

At the Methodist Church
Lost in the Fog.

Last Sunday while Mr.. Melville
Johnson of Moonstone, lay reader in
charge of St. Marks Episcopal church
was coming up the river in his launch
to hold the regular morning prayer
service at the church, he became be-
wildered in the fog and it was nearly
noon before he got his bearings and
was able to reach Palatka.
Quite large congregation had as
sembled at the church where they
waited for the minister until long
past the hour for service, then the
congregation dispersed. When Mr..
johnson reached the church the peo-
pie were all gone.
The fog which hung over the river
and territory adjacent Saturday and
Sunday was the heaviest seen in
years, especially during the daylight
hours. Mr.. Johnson was not able
to return to his home down the river
until the following day.

.PA[ATKA BAPT|STS
ARE OUT OF DEBT
And are Doing Some Rejoic-
ing Themselves.

Pastor P. Quintius Cason of the
First Baptist Church has been the
thermometer that has registered Bap-
tist temperature during the past week.
Others may feel good, but Pastor Ca
son feel better. His temperature is
high. His cup of joy is running
over. The Church debt is paid.
Since the building of the new church
house the Baptist people have been
carrying G. debt of $4,000. Lately
one supreme effort was made to lift
this debt. The business men of Pa
esssfu assf the tDf' joy AAI pastor
don't like to work under a handicap
and a debt on church is the worst
kind of a handicap to its efficiency
its power for good.
Baptists never dedicate a church
house to the Lord until they own it
They don't believe they ought to sad
die any more burdens on the Lord
than He is now bearing for humanity
The church, therefore, had never beer
dedicated. That important service
will take place next Sunday morning
Rev. DR.. S. B. Rogers of Jacksonville
corresponding secretary of the Flori.
da Baptist Convention, and an elo'
quent, scholarly preacher, will deliver
the sermon. Pastor Cason and in.
deed every member of his faithful
flock will enjoy having the people Of
Palatka, even though they be non
Baptist in training, to be present anC
witness their joy.
Mrs. R. J. Adams, pioneer resi-
dent of Palatka, and the oldest mem
Der of the local church, will read {

with the struggles of Palatka Baptist'

Rev. Father Langlade was in the

He recently returned from a several
months visit to his old home in
France, far removed from the scene
of actual hostilities, but he saw and
talked to many of the wounded who
are in hospitals in that section. In
fact all of southern France is one
great hospital. Countless thousands
of soldiers are there for treatment of
wounds.
Father Langlade says that while
