COMMENTS ON THE GAME
Some bawl game even if SHEP
wasn't there.
Folks, you missed treat If yes
terday's game was sample of the
games we are going to witness this
summer, Lakeland will have more
PEP than carload of TOBASCO
SAUCE.
Only one error in the whole game
, and that was made by Franklin, an
error which can be excused as the
right field position at Kissimmee is
a bad one, the player looking direct
ly at the sun while endeavoring L,
handle fly ball.
The boys were treated fine at Kis-
simmee and enjoyed the visit i'm
mensely, and guarantee to return
the compliment when that team
comes to our little city. DUSTY

When men strive honestly to do
something to help their fellowmen
and to advance the interests of their
community and section, they draw
down the disapproval of other men
who do nothing except to serve their
own selfish ends. There are always
many clubs under the apple trees that
produce the best fruit.

We note in the Tallahassee Record,
the statement, standing aloof and
alone, of the incontrovertible fact
that "apples sometimes rot" AS most
of the balance of the paper is given
over to reasons why Knott should not
be elected Governor, we regard this
announcement with mistrust, and as
being invested possibly with some
mysterious and Interior significance.
"Apples sometime rot" Who said
they do Knott? Explain the puzzle,

To Tax At Full Value.

The members and officials of the State
Tax Commission on Wednesday of last
week had before them the Supervisors of
Assessments in the counties and Baltimore
city for final instructions regarding the
conduct of the general reassessment of
real estate in the counties. The super
visors. in turn, will meet the assessors in
the respective county seats on October 8
and pass on to them the instructions. The
work of actual reassessment will then be-
gin promptly.
One Of the points emphasized at the con-
ference was that the assessors should
assess property at its full valuation. Chair
man German made the point and it was
dwelt upon strongly. The supervisors were
told that when the 100 per cent assess
ment was departed from there entered
danger of favOritism and inequality. for
one piece of property might be assessed
at 80 per cent. of its value, another at rs
per cent. but that if every piece of prop
erty were honestly assessed at 100 per
cent inequality would be eliminated as
far as humanity possible.
Another feature of the assessment will
be that lands and buildings will be assessed
separately. The commission will insist
upon separation this time. In the assess
ment of buildings. the assessors will be
guided largely by table furnished by the
commission. which uses the square foot
factor" in determining value. The com
mission holds that buildings of various
classes have more or less fixed relation
between value and square foot treas AS
sessments upon lands will be made accord
ing to their nature in other words, the
arabic land in farm will be assessed as
a unit, the marsh land as unit the pasture
land as a unit. the waste land as a unit
and so on.

fell from a canal boat on which he and
friend, Arthur Davis, also of Pittsburg, were
on their way from Washington to Cumber-
land. The two boys had been in Wash
ington about week taking in the sights.
Their funds becoming exhausted, they ac-
cepted an offer of a captain of a canal
boat to take them as far as Cumberland.
Thursday night being warm, the boys lay
on top of the cabin and fell asleep. When
just above Seneca the captain of the boat
heard splash, and making an investiga-
ton found that one of the boys had dis
appeared. The boat was stopped and the
remainder of the night was spent in all
effort to find the boys body. 1t was re-
covered Friday. Hunters body was brought
to Rockville. where a post mortem exami-
