The Palatka news and advertiser. [volume] (Palatka, Fla.) 1908-19??, 1915-01-15

Secretary Folsom of the Palatka
board of trade, has Issued a brochure
containing much interesting matter
about Palatka and Putnam county.
The only thing about the brochure
that could be seriously criticised, was
that it bore the imprint of an outside
printing house. The worst way for
Florida cities to help Florida, is to
send their printing to outside con-
Germs that have no interest in Florida,
and do not contribute a dollar to the
growth, prosperity, welfare or pro-
gress of Florida. We ought to have
more of spirit of keeping Florida
money in Florida-Jacksonville Me-
tropolis.

Union City Wins.

The Union City Training School met
and defeated Martin Saturday 10 a very
close and highly interesting game, the
final score being Is to 0, the first touch
down made in the first quarter and the
last in the final quarter. The locals
outpointed the visitors in line plunging,
tackling and open field work. Thomas
and Coleman for the visitors did excep-
tionally good work, while Harris, Ever
EFT, Rogers and Waters were in star
roles for the locals. Many out Of town
people were in the large crowd that wit
messed the game and much spirit was
manifested for both sides. After the
game parade was given by the Train
ing School boys in honor of their VIC

Will Boykin Killed.

Last Wednesday morning at about
10 O'Clock George Polk, negro, walk
into the place of business of Will
Boykin, another darkey, and in less
time than it takes to tell the story
Boykin was shot three times and
mortally wounded. Without a word,
so witnesses say, Polk walked in,
pistol in hand, killed his man, walk
ed out, delivered the gun and sur
rendered to the first man he saw,
Mr.. Clarence Johnson, who happened
to be near by. They are both well
known around town, Boykin con-
Quoting a clothes cleaning and press
ing establishment on West Church
street, near the Harrison Garage,
and Polk owns a barber shop on
Railroad avenue. There seems to
have been "a woman in the case" as
Polk claims Boykin had wrecked his
home. Boykin's body was buried
Yesterday and Polk is in Jail.

July 5 was a glad day in Heaven
when the spirit of~Miss Fannie Fos-
ter wendell its way from earth to
glory. / think the angels and
archangels and all the hosts OF
Heaven heralded her coming with
Joy. Truly she had fought a good
fight, she had finished her course,
she had kept the faith and believe,
without doubt, God was glad to
see Miss Fannie When the Greeks
went TO fight with Alexander they
had no means of communication
with their loved ones at home, and
so they would be gone for years
sometimes. Then when they would
see them all battle-scared come
marching home they would order out
the militia and the brass band and
they would play on the walls OF the
city royal welcome to the faithful
soldiers whom they had waited and
watched for so long. And so think
it was in Heaven when Miss Fannie
reached home after battles fought
and victories won, all battle-scared
by the conflicts in this life that Jesus
ordered out all the musical instru-
ments of Heaven to bid her royal
welcome home. Truly Union City
lost one of the most noble women
who ever lived there in the death
of Miss Fannie Foster. Unselfish,
humble and Christlike in every &C
ton she was always ready to deny
herself for others. Let us all strive
to emulate her most worthy example,
SO that when the final summons
comes we may, like her, be ready to-
enter into the city of God.

Our Seasons.

Spring when it comes,
With a love for us all;
1t brings the delightful
Green view support for all;
And while we are numeral,
Novice, numb and in
Our notorious, obdurate way;
Bring about support
To concentrate the way.
When after spring is DER,
The dear old summer days,
They bring us JOY and comfort,
For harvesting has come;
We become then co-workers
And pull thru the hay,
Wheat, grading and tieing,
Now ended for the day.
We pull for our binders
And go on the way.
The next trying season,
The autumn time to-day,
We are praying for labors,
| ana our COILOH muCH pay

And an awful pay;
AS the boys are shouting
Frost on the way.
On comes the winter,
| A dreadful time.

Oh, not very much;

To accomplish all that;

Will increase, by the way.

Sox has definitely fixed March 10 as
the date for starting the training trip
of the south Siders in 1916.
The South Side owner believes that
in one month Manager Rowland can
look over the new material and make
any changes necessary to send the
team away at winning clip. Row
land will pay particular attention to
Pitcher Dave Danforth, who averaged
more than eight strikeouts per game
in the American association last sea-
son.
But there will be two places in the
infieId that will come in for careful
consideration. Third base and first
base should be strengthened. For
the difficult corner Rowland has
Blackburne, Johns and a couple of
rockies from the coast. Blackburne
is not considered heavy enough
hitter to keep the position.
Johns had his chance this season
and showed remarkable promise. He
was not quite experienced enough to
rely on in the final dash for the pen
nant, but will be given every chance
the coming year. His minor league
associates predict for him a great
future. He appeared to be a fair bat
ter and fine fielder. His hitting, &C
cording to past performances, is not
spotty, but swings along at a steady
clip around the .260 mark.
For first base Jack Neff, who es-
tabIished a new record for consecu-
tive hitting in the Pacific Coast
league, is the leading contender He
must show more than John Collins,
who played the bag during the clos
ing weeks of the 1915 season. Col
Inns is a hard worker and liable to
flash with stellar plays, but he hardly

England adopts this policy beneficial
to herself alone and injurious to
her neighbors, exciting their just
resentment right then and there has
been sown one OF the seeds Of a
future war. A wiser and more
statesmanlike method OF procedure
would be for England TO frankly pre-
sent to Germany, France and Russia
brief OF her new policy and in
quire OF them il such policy would
be mutually satisfactory. II either
Germany, France or Russia should
reply that such a policy would. in
their opinion, prove injurious, q
council of the nations involved could
be called and after due elaboration
policy could be framed which
would be OF benefit 10 all. Now what
have we found? Such action on
the part Of England would compel
the respect OF Germany, France and
Russia, would win their affection.
In time OF distress because OF IA
mine, pestilence, or any other afilic-
ton, Germany, France and Russia
would hurry 10 the assistance OF
England, seeing in her big brother
in distress. One OF the seeds OF
permanent peace would have been
sown. There is no need TO extend
the argument. Its appeal will meet
