A MISSOURI
COMMUNITY HAS
FAITH IN ITSELF
FOLLOWING POLK coUNTYs
EXAMPLE
Clay County Has Ordered an Election
June "a, For st,25o,ooo Bonds for
Good Roads.

That other communities have no
hesitancy in investing money for in
ternal improvements, particularly for
good roads, is found in reports that
come from Missouri. A paragraph ap-
pearing in this week issue of the
Manufacturers Record has this to
say:
"The Clay County Court, of Liberty
Mo. has ordered an election for
June "a. on the issuing of $780, 90
bonds for the construction of about
200 miles of rock roads" From the
United States Census the following
comparative data of the two counties
is of interest:
Area in Popu- Ince
Square lation 1900
Miles 1910 1910
Clay County, Mo, 400 2O,3O2 IA
Polk County, Fla. 1907 24.14S 1876
And this too from the SHOW Me-
state where there are the most
skeptical people in the world, is evil
dence that they have confidence in
themselves and their resources and
are not afraid to use their credit as
sensible business men, knowing that
they will reap a handsome profit on
the money spent to every citizen with
in the county. 1t will be noted also
that the area of Clay county is con-
siderably smaller than Polk; that
their population is nearly four thou

Next Game-Lakeland at Barlow
Tuesday.
Before a good sized crowd that had
gathered together to see a good ball
game. Lakeland went down in defeat
by score of thirteen to nothing yes
terday afternoon on the local ball
grounds The game was so entirely
different from the other two games
that the team has played this season
that one could not believe it was the
same team. To begin with the brand
of twirling that we witnessed yester-
day was not to be compared with the
fine work of Fuller and Hatton, the
twirlers of the two former games
This young man was touched up for
thirteen hits. and Kissimmee took
the hearts out of the locals when
they commenced to pound on Levine's
delivery in the very first inning.
Bare, who took the mound for the
visitors, pitched a grand game, Big
Meharg and Robinson being the only
I.akelanders that found his delivery
and then only two hits were chalked
up It was just an off day for our
boys and there was great lack of
pep. Judging by the score they must
have had the same kind of game
in Barlow, where the home team de-
feated Winter Haven by a score of
. to O. Three teams are now tied
for first place in the League and
unless Winter Haven takes a brace
she will be out of the running al
together

THE GOLD OF THE GODS
BY ARTHUR B. REEVE .y Rsss.s Scientific as sss By

"As you doubt know" resumed the
Sonora, mo one has had the secret
of the hiding place. 1t has been by
mere tradition that they were going
to dig. That secret. you may know or
may not know now, was in reality
contained In the inscription on an old
Inca dagger"
Inez shuddered at the mention Of
the weapon, shudder that was not
lost on the Sonora.
Il have already told Professor Ken

AS said, don't know how it hap

getting crazy, until he talked, and the
dagger was stolen from him. 1t came
finally into Professor Norton's hands,
from whom it was In turn stolen"

pected the presence of Lockwod's foot
prints in the sarcophagus in the Mu-
seum-what she would do if she did.
After he lost it," she continued
reminiscently, my brother threw
himself one day into Lake Titicaca.
Everywhere the trail of that dagger,
of the secret of the Gold of the Gods
has been stained by blood. Today
the world SCOTS at curses. But sure
ly that gold must be cursed 1t has
been cursed for us and ours"

less woman as to play on the very
heart-strings Of one whom she had
wronged? l was shaken, moreover,
by the late discovery by Kennedy Of
the footprints.
The Senorita murmured her thanks
for the condolences in a broken voice
It was evident that whatever enmity
she bore against the Sonora 1t was
not that of suspicion that she was the
cause of her fathers death.

more deeply" she went on, because

Professor Kennedy something about
It. 1t was matter OF which l felt

Inez said nothing, and Craig bowed,
as though he, too, wished her to go
on.

concession which your father has OBJ
tanned from the government to search

The Senorita started and grew bit
pale at the reference, but she seemed
to realize that it was something she
ought to hear, and steeled herself to
It.

"Remember-she Is very remark
able woman" said Whitney, as we
left him and started for the tea room.
His tone was not exactly one of
warning, yet 1t seemed to have cost
him an effort to say it. l could not
reconcile It with any other idea than
that he was trying to use her in his
own plans, but was still in doubt Of
the outcome.
We parted from him and entered
the darkened tea room, with its wick

1t was then that saw how he had
contrived to sit next to Inez, while
Kennedy manoeuvered to sit on the
end where he could observe them all

It was a rather delicate situation,
and I wondered how Kennedy would

by-products and the farming itself COM
sists OF SO many processes and u
affected by SO many elements caik
ing for good business Judgment and
enlightened understanding that 1t
may easily be understood that tbs
farm is a more difficult business en-
terprise than Is the bank. Further,
that fact that In Europe the land Is
made to produce many times as much
per acre in income as it does in the
United States shows that the farmer
has in his possession hidden resour-
ces and possibilities Of which he is
even yet hardly aware There is NO
limit to the development that may bs
brought about in the farming indus
try and it will give employment and
rich reward for all the attention and
interest and study that the farmer
can bring to bear upon it.
Time was when the trend was from
the farm, to the city because 1t was
believed that the city offered more
OF advantages Now 1t Is the other
way. Not only is the country home
far more desirable and attractive
than the town home-possessing as
It does all the modern conveniences
desired-but the farm offers the most
fruitful field for endeavor on the part
OF the most capable of men, young
and old.
