We were very much pleased with
the services of last Lords day. The
day was filled to the fullest with
christian fellowship. We began with
an increase in the Sunday school,
also an increased attendance at the
morning service. We had splendid
fellowship at the basket dinner, and
then a good interest in the afternoon
service, and in the evening Endeavor
and preaching services. We want to
make special mention of the Sun
day evening Endeavor meeting. The
attendance and interest were the best
that we have seen since in Leon. In
view of the fact that there will be no
union revival meetings the fore part
of the year and possibly not until
next summer, we wish to warn the
people not to lessen their zeal espec-
tally in evangelistic work. The pro-
gram now is individual evangelistic
meetings. A most splendid way to
prepare for individual evangelistic
meetings is to make every Sunday
and mid week service an evangelistic
service. This is splendid field for
evangelistic work.

Among the winners on trout

Other steady devotes have been

good fellows have been landed

The fish have seemed to run ex-
ira good size on Fridays for the
past two weeks, hardly anything

being taken in trout while on
Saturdays the small fry has chas-

But what counts the most is

WILL BOOM WEST COAST

j. L. Tallevast, new proprietor
of the Manavista Hotel at Braden-

ger Palmer of the Punta Gorda
Hotel, has been in town. The
two managers discussed the Orga-

the attractions of this coast
Headquarters are open in the Sem.
mole Hotel in Jacksonville, from
which point the West coast men
are diverting some of the travel
that has heretofore gone to the
East Coast. Manager Palmer
has joined the association and ex-
poets that many former East Coast
tourists will come to Punta GOrda
in the next two months as result.
1t is hoped to obtain some interest
ing objects illustrating Punta Cor

back and her head ached almost
constantly. Her sight became

REAL FISHING
Winter Visitors at Last Have Lots
of Fun

When Punta Gorda winter Wis
itor is wanted, the first place in
which search is made for him OF
her is out on the city pier. The
sport of sports seems to have be-
gun in earnest. There have been
enough extra biting days so that
old timers and neophytes hate to
cave the pier even when fgura-
i've dinner gongs sound and night
alls.
Hard times have come in crab
and and a scheme is on foot to
incorporate and capitalize the bait
:addies.
Several days the trout tribe
have been swimming up and down
before Punta Gorda just crying
for bait until every visitor who
could acquire a pole and string
with a hook on the end of it was
strung out along the pier.
When Mr.. Jas. Corbett made a
snapshot of the wharf crowd it is
averred there were six dozen hu-
mon dots hitched to fish rods.
The trout, red fish and sheephead
must have gotten Mr.. Corbett s
signal to "look pleasant" just in
time to get into the picture for it
is confidently understood from all
the catch yarns circulated that
when this film is developed it will
reveal at least six dozen Of these
rods with some sort Of fish tango
ing on its hook.
Oh yes, Punta GOrda is some
fishing town and as about half the
people now at the game are here
because somebody somewhere in |
the United States or Florida told |
them to come to Punta Gorda if |
they wanted to fish, why they are !
sure now Punta Gorda can hand |
out the fish
But seriously, the fish have been |
furnishing plenty of sport. One
man announced his wife had told |
him if he caught any more fish not |
to bring them home but he simply |
had to fish.
Mr.. Hewes, who has fished at |
Punta Gorda for eight years is
sure he saw more fish carried off |
the pier in the past week than he
has ever seen caught at the same
time in the season.
Feminine anglers have made
some good catches. One Georgia
woman has had so many fish two

Starke Telegraph Judging
from the many who come to Flori-
da at this time of the year to sell
worthless goods, exploit fake
schemes, beg, etc, we must have a
reputation abroad as being a veal
thy people. And as with many
other wealthy men we are not
supposed to have an overdue a
mount of brains. Yet, we "get
on to" these gentlemen little by
little and as the years roll by they
will become scarcer. Mean
while we should be thankful that
they only trouble us during the
short winter season. In the North,
where they come from, they ply
their trade all the time.

The Demon of Woe, Want and
Poverty

by S. w. Inglish, Fire Prevention
Expert.)
There is no poetry in a fire that
destroys. There is no warmth of
good cheer in a blazing house.
Only misery and want and woe
can echo from homes destroyed,
from business houses wrecked
from savings vanished via the fire
route.
And fires are the fruits of hui
man acts of commission and omis-
sion. They do not start of their
own accord. They must always
have a human being for a partner
This being the case, why not cul-
tivate a little foresight? Why not
keep your promises clear of trash,
of litter, of waste and such things
that are excellent fire food?
When properly curbed and cir
cumscribed, a cheering fire is a
thing that makes a most excellent
servant, contributing greatly to
the comforts of man. But to keep
fire a servant requires constant
and unceasing vigil. While a
good servant it is a most exacting
maSterl
Are you doing your full share
toward preventing fires? If you
are you merit the thanks of your
ncighbors. Every time a house
is destroyed your neighbors must
stand their full part of the fire in
surance you may collect.
