A GOOD WAY TO SAVE.

In encouraging the people of American to it

small denomination of of the bonds renders it
practical the ordinary to purchase

country have undertaken provide for the purchase
of these bonds in small weekly monthly payments.

How to Pour LIQUIDS.

In pouring liquid from a jug OF

liquid will rotate, and in leaving the
opening will permit air to enter con-
tnuously, causing the liquid to run
out rapidly and without intermittent
gurgling sounds. If the opening of
the container is at one side it is best
to hold the container so that the open
ing is at the highest point of the end,
rather than at the bottom. The air
may thus enter and permit continu-'
Gus flow until the container Is empty.

Population of London.

Figures as to the medieval popula-
ton of London are mostly mere guess

based upon careful calculations: 1880,

Growing in Personal Symmetry.

Keen, sharp thinking will add more
to your purse than it will to your good
character. Shrewdness may capture
advantages, but 1t will hardly insure
friends. The symmetrical man putsa a
little feeling into his thinking. His
heart Is big enough to appreciate and
respect another's ,sensitiveness. Be
cause he Is big he can afford to let the
other fellow think his own way with
out feeling hurt with every intended
or unattended slight. His knowledge
has taught him the problems of the
world, and, because his life has more
than one side, he is able to sympa-
thize with the other fellow, and even
help him without loss to his own dig
nifty. And as he exercises concern for
his fellows he grows In personal SYM
metry.

The Passaic IN. j. Daily News of
recent date comes telling us that Will
liam Wallace Watson has been ap-
pointed Judge Of the Court of Com
mon Pleas in that city and county.
Judge Watson is remembered in
Palatka, where he has made frequent
visits, and where he came for bride
Old residents, (and not such very old
ones, either) will remember him and
his wife, who was Miss Anna Gay, SIS
ter of Messrs. Geo. E. and Benz. l..
Gay.
Judge Watson is not new to the
bench. With the creation of the Dis
trict Court in Passaic in 1896, Mr..
Watson was appointed Judge by Gov,
John W. Griggs, and when be was
only 27 years of age. In this posi-
tion he earned a state wide reputN-
tion for the soundness of his opinions,
and since several years back he has
been regarded as a most promising
candidate for Supreme Court honors.
He served as Judge of the district
court, for Is years, retiring in 1911.
He has since been a member of the
State Assembly.

Before the regular program, Mrs.

the first week in May. Mrs. Card
ner then read an article dealing with
college Cookery" and Mrs. Mann fol-
lowed with "An Affirmative Educa-
tion," which advocated a more prac-
tical curriculum in the modern schools.
Mrs. de Montmollin closed the pro-
gram with an article on the Care of

afternoon will be in charge of Mrs.

MAIL CHANGE TO Be
EFFECTIVE ON MONDAY
Will Affect Towns Between
Palatka and Rochelle.

Next Monday the railway postal
clerk on the Florida Southern branch
of the A. c. L. R'y between this city
and Rochelle will lose his job as such.
On that day will become effective
the new order which calls for a closed
pouch service from the Palatka office.
The pouches for Francis, Hollister, In
terlachen and all points on the line
will be made up at the Palatka post
office and sent to their destination in
care Of the baggage master. All mail
from these offices will be placed in
locked pouches and sent to the Palat-
ka office to be distributed.
The postal clerk service has been on
this line since the road opened, and
that goes back more than genera
ton.
The only difference will be that in
case Mr.. Gilhooly of Hollister wants
to send letter to Mr.. Mulcahey of
Interlachen, it will be put in a pouch
and sent to Palatka postoffce, where
1t will be placed in the next pouch
for lnterlachen. 1t will lengthen the
local service somewhat, and it will put
extra work on the employees Of the
Palatka postoffice, who even now are
overworked.
While we are on postoffices it will
not be out of place to say that re-
cent circular from the department at
Washington just released says that
February the shortest month in the
year rolled up the largest increase in
savings deposits in the history of the
service. The largest percentages of
gain were made in what is known as
the extreme northwestern and extreme
southeastern sections of the country
Washington made the greatest per-
centage of gain-18 per cent. Flori-
da made the next largest percentage
of gain-11 per cent. The Pensa-
cola postal saving bank has the
greatest amount of deposits in the

Several Applicants for Job
Barber and Livingston
Leaders.

When the new city council takes
over the work of managing the city
of Palatka next month, one of the first
things it will be called upon to do is
to select the heads of departments.
Among the offices to be filled by
election in council is city engineer,
city clerk, and chief of police-also
the policemen under the chief.
Chief of Police Livingston, who has
been in office two years and has made
= good officer, will likely be a candl-
date for reelection. Policeman j. b.
Barber, who has also made a splendid
record for efficiency, will also be a
candidate fer chief.
lust now it looks as if Mr.. Barber
stood a pretty fair chance of winning;
The News has been informed, that
several of the council have already eX-
pressed a preference for him and that
if he hadn't the votes suthclent al
ready to give him the place, he came
dangerously near it. But you never

He is also without the shadow of a

thing he will get the place by unanl-

CITY COUNCIL LETS
PAVING CONTRACTS

At the meeting of the city council
on Tuesday evening a petition signed
by residents of Carr, Ninth and Oak
streets was presented protesting on
the expense provided for at a recent
meeting for the testing of brick used
in paving. These people whose
streets are soon to be paved, had the
idea that the expense Of the testing
would fall on them. Alderman Mer-
rill, who made the motion, stated that
many people had the notion that the
500 needed for the testing appara-
tus would go into the pocket of the
city engineer. Mr.. Stallings, the
engineer, who was present, said he
didn't care whether the council tested
the brick or not; that it only made eX-
ira work. for him.
Alderman Austin said that all brick
were not the same brick, that some Of
'em were not sufficiently baked-on-
ly baked, and had different de-
grees of hardness, and testing ap-
paratus was needed-that it would
save the city money by protecting the
property holders against the use of in
ferior brick. The petition was filed,
which means that it was placed in
the morgue.
Alderman McNally of the finance
committee stated that his committee
had recommended the payment of $500
to Hilburn & Merryday, attorneys rep
resenting the city in the case of Pa
latka Water Works VS.. The City of
Palatka, and this recommendation was
adopted. This was one case where
the attorneys earned their money and
great deal more; they saved the
city from a Judgment of more than
$4,000.
The contract for paving Carr, Oak
and Ninth streets was let to the Ala
bama Paving Company at S1.53 ner
square yard. The only other bidder
was the Georgia Engineering Co. at
S1.54 per square yard. There are
some $500 square yards to be paved.
The Palatka news and advertiser., 1917-03-23

it empowered President Mckinley to
deal with the menace of Spain in 1898.
Such action would not be declara-
tion of war except in technical sense
and whether the United States and
Germany actually go to war in the
fullest acceptation of the term will de-
pend on what the imperial govern
ment does before congress is assem-
bled or after it acts.
Dispatches from abroad tonight de-
claring that the German government
expected a state of war within the
next forty-eight hours placed an omi-
nous aspect on the situation.
The next ten days, until congress
meets, will be fraught with possibili-
ties of tremendous consequences to
the United States.
President Wilson and his advisers in
the cabinet and in congress have no
intention that war shall be declared
by the United States. By the hostile
acts of German submarines they be-
lieve the imperial government is ac--
tually making war on the United
States and that it shall be recognized
as such state. To meet such con-
dition the armed forces of the coun-
try and all the national resources are
to be put in a state of readiness.
In every sense, war if it actually
comes, will be defensive, free from
ambitions of spoils or territory in
which the United States, the president
has publicly declared. shall want moth
ing for itself and shall seek only to
preserve the rights of civilization and
humanity.
In such an occasion the United
States might even demand actual par
ticipation in the hostilities on the Eu-
ropean continent without BECOMING a
political ally of any of the entente
powers, simply casting its weight of
men. money and moral influence into
the battle against a common enemy.
