The Palatka news and advertiser., 1916-07-14

Rev. DR.. R. l.. BonsteeI, pastor of
the Baptist church at Crescent City
for the past year, has been engaged
to supply the pulpit Of the First Bap-
tist church next Sunday, morning and
evening.
DR.. Bonsteel is a preacher of ability
and his sermons are always most in
tereSting. He is a man Of culture
and intellectual ability and ranks
among the foremost preachers of his
denomination in the State. Since
going to Crescent City a little more
than year ago he has built up the
church there so that its membership is
now the largest in the place. He has
been instrumental in arousing interest
and the church is just completing a
beautiful pastorium at a cost Of nearly
$4,000 besides repainting and repairing
the church house.
Before entering the ministry Dr.
Bonstcel was a successful lawyer in
Kentucky, his native state.
The local church officers hope to
have a pulpit supply during every
Sunday of Pastor Casons absence,
and the supply for the Sunday follow
ing will be announced in this paper.

An Appreciation. A

Not until the last issue of The
News. which published a list of
teachers for the coming year, did the
many friends of Prof. R. w. Van
Brunt, and patrons of the school give
crcdcnce to the current report that
he would not again be principal of
Putnam High School.
This is indeed to be regretted, and
the loss of this splendid educator and
Christian gentleman as head of our
faculty will be keenly felt. During
the five years Prof. Van Brunt has
been principal, the school has grown
and improved in many ways. The
standard of the school has been raised
to such a degree that only our poor
equipment kept US from ranking as 1
senior high school.
Music was introduced and a credit
able library added; also a small
chemical and physical laboratory
equipped, and considering the poor
facilities and the adverse conditions,
Prof. Van Brunt has had splendid re-
suits.
We note that Prof. Van Brunt's
many friends are making every ef-
fort to have him remain in Palatka
and we certainly trust that they will
be successful, as Palatka cannot af-
ford to lose such an exemplary citi-
zen.
