PERSISTENCE

SuppOsin' fish don't bite at first,
What are you goin to do;
Throw down your pole, chuck out
your bait,
And say your fishin's through?
You bet you amt; you're goin' to

An fish, an fish, and wait
Until you've ketched basketful
Or used up all your bait.
Suppose success don't come at first,
What are you goin' to do;
Throw up the sponge and kick your

And growl, and fret, and stew?
You bet you amt; you're goin' to
work,
And work, and work, and grin,
Until success does come your way
For grit" is sure to win.

DESERVED HIS FATE.

George Sylvester Viereck. the
German American poet of New York,
interrupted with a humorous aside
passionate argument on neutral
ity.
But, you, my friend" said Mr..
Viereck, "you value our neutrality
no higher, it is plain, than old Gobsa
Golde valued his domestic happi-
ness.
CAS- old Gobsa Golde was cutting
coupons with pair of gold mani
cure scissors in his inner Office, a
messenger rushed to him and said:
oh, Mr.. Golde, poor Mr.. Golde,
am so sorry! Your beautiful girl
wife has eloped with the office boy!'
"Gobsa kept right on with his
coupon cutting.
oh. WELL he said. he wasn't
much Of an Office boy. :"

Confederate Camps
Best Contributors
To Monument
For Women

In report by Gen. Benjamin w.
Partridge, who has served as a men,
Der of the board of trustees for the
monument in Jacksonville to the
Women of the Confederacy since the
board was first appointed in 1910,
he makes the statement, after CIV
ing very full report of expendi-
lures, receipts, etc, that the Con-
federate Veterans have contributed
practically one-half of the money al
ready collected. 1t will be seen
from this that the general public
did not contribute very literally to
the patriotic undertaking.
The state has promised to pay one
half the cost of the memorial as
soon as the Confederate Veterans
raise the funds to pay the balance
and the board of trustees accepts
the monument as completed.
1t is earnestly hoped that all who
can, will contribute as literally as
possible to this worthy cause.

A SAD MISTAKE.

Editors have their troubles. One
or these men who presides over the
destinies of Western newspaper
was mourning the loss of two sub
scribers. One wrote asking how to
raise twins successfully while the
other wanted to know how he might
rid his orchard of grasshoppers. The
answers were forwarded by mail,
envelopes, SO that the man with the
out the editor put them in wrong
twins received the answer: Cover
them carefully with straw and set
hre to it. and the little pests after
jumping in the flames for few
minutes, will be speedily settled"
And the man with the grass-hoppers
was told to give castor oil and rub
their gums with bone"

24,159 Cars
OF Oranges Have
Left State Since
September IS

Jacksonville, Fla, April 27-The
Florida citrus crop still continues to
move freely, as 705 cars were ship
ped last week, or 80 cars more than
the week previous. The total ship
ments to date since September Is,
1914, are 24,159 cars. Last weeks
movement consisted of 4O4 cars of
grapefruit and 3O1 cars of oranges.
A large percentage of the oranges
now leaving the state are of the VAL
encia variety. They are of a fine
quality and as this variety will hang
on the tree late in the season before
they lose their juice the growers are
not anxious at the present rising
condition of the markets to rush
their fruit to market and shipments
are moving gradually. Both the Or
ange and grapefruit market con-
tinues to remain strong and the de-
mand fully equals the supply that is
now moving.
1t is estimated that there still re-
mains in the state from 100000 to
|, 100000 boxes of citrus fruit. 1t is
believed by those interested in the
IDEAL that for the rest of the season
there will be fair prices and the
shipments out of the state will about
equal the demand.
The orange bloom is heavy
throughout the state. Some growers
state that It is the heaviest bloom in
years and up to the present time it
s sticking; there is every prospect
hat trees will hold the heavy
bloom.

American League.
The American league opening has
presented some facts seen each
year. st. Louis, New York Wash
ington and Cleveland are ranged in
the middle with Boston and Detroit
at the top and Chicago and Phila-
delphia at the bottom. From the
first weeks playing it appers that
Connie Mack's loss is serious one
for the Athletics. The rapidtfire
snap of the old intield has been
slowed up and the absence of Eddie
Plank and Jack Coombs leaves a big
gap for the young pitchers to fill.
The White Sox have geen greatly
strengthened and as usual they
started the first two or three games
with victories. only to lose four in
a row. With Russell. Faber and
Cicotte in shape the Sox have a good
chance of making things at least IN

cult this season.
