Mr.. Sheets Succeeds In Getting
Vocational High Schools

Tallahassee, Dec. 29.-State Su-
perintendent of Public Instruction
VIM. N. Sheats has returned from
Washington, where, he went to
have approved the states plans
for the two vocational education
al high schools in each congress
sional district, which will receive
state and government aid for the
teaching of industrial trades,
home economics and agriculture.
Mr.. Sheats states that he secur-
ed what he went after, and is well
pleased with the results of his con-
ferences with the government off
Gals at the national capital. The
plans for the vocational
work in Florida will
be announced in a few days, and
the high schools to be named for
the giving of this instruction Sc
lected.

State Fast Filling Up

Punta Gorda has room for a
good many winter visitors, accord
ing to Editor Jordan, of the Her
aid. 1t is likely that the room
thus told of will be needed before
the winter is much further adj
vanced, and that Punta Gorda will
be entertaining more visitors than
ever before. In some of the best
known Florida resorts the availa-
BILE room is almost taken already,
notwithstanding the fact that u.s.
ually a great number of winter
visitors tarry at home until after
the holidays. Many came early
this year on account of the coal
shortage and for other reasons.
Now that the holidays are passing
it is expected that the transporta-
ton companies will be called upon
to handle capacity loads, south
bound, for a month or two and
thousands of people with automo-
biles will come south by the "big
road" There is no question at
all about this being the greatest
season the south has ever known.

GRAND SCENIC DISPLAY
State Fair to Present Aurora b.
reals During Exposition

Jacksonville, Jan. l Through
a new and novel system of illumi-
nation, the Florida State Fair and
Exposition grounds will present
an Auro-Borealis appearance each
night of the great exposition
which will be held in Jacksonville
from February &c to March 8,
1918, inclusive, and those hun
dreds of thousands of visitors who
will pass under the beautiful Ital-
ian Venetian arch-way into the
grounds will marvel at the Won
derful scenic effect bursting into
view.
General Manager B. X. Hama
fourde, decided after several
months consideration Of the light
ing arrangements for the State
Fair and Exposition, to adopt the
Tower Light system, and as this
proved such a magnificent success
at the Panama-Pacific Exposition,
as well as at Santiago, it was in
augurated for the benefit of Flor
adams and their many visitors
The lights will be stationed on top
of two 80-foot towers, and their
rays will penetrate and illuminf
the utmost recesses of the fail
grounds. Approaching the state
fair, at night the visitor will mar
vel at the playing rays, criss-cross
ing and blending until the effec+
will resemble a frosted window
pane in the snow covered North
land, the contrast with Florida ,!
palms and tropical foliage being
one of extreme beauty.

DON'T EXPERIMENT
You Will Make No Mistake if You
Follow This Advice
Never neglect your kidneys.

Never neglect your kidneys.
If you have pain in the back,
bladder disorders, dizziness and
nervousness, it's time to act and
no time to experiment. These are
frequently symptoms of kidney
trouble, and a remedy which is
recommended for the kidneys
should be taken in time.
Doan's Kidney Pills are a good
remedy to use. 1t has acted eff
fectively in many cases in this vi
entity.
Can Punta Gorda residents de-
mand further proof than the fol-
lowing testimonial?
Mrs, d. T. Carlton, 6O1 Oak St.,
Arcadia, Fla, says: 81 had been
troubled by slight attacks of back
ache for some time. My health
was run down and my kidneys
were disordered. I bought Doan s
Kidney Pills and soon after taking
them was benefited. | know
that Doan's Kidney Pills can be
depended upon for curing kidney
trouble. +"

simply ask for a kidney remedy

same that Mrs. Carlton had. Fos-

State Fair Buildings Completed

Jacksonville, Dec, Especially
Five of the ten big buildings at the
Florida State Fair and EXPOSE
ton, which will be held in Jack
sonville from February rs to
March 9, inclusive, are now prac-
tically completed, and have a floor
space totaling 10000 square feet.
The buildings now practically
completed are; The Florida Coun-
ties building, $4,000 square feet ;
Woman's building, 8,4O0 square
feet; Colored building, 1890
square feet; Automobile building,
$4,000 square feet, and the Varied
Industries building with $4,000
square feet. The Administration
building is being erected, and the
three large Live Stock buildings
will be ready for the painter by
January Is. The sidewalks are
also being laid and the manage
ment expects to have them all
completed by January Is, and the
grounds ready for the landscape
artist, who will Immediately go to
work identifying them in time for
the fair. The street car line is
now within one block of the fair
grounds, and a large force of men
are laying cross ties and rails.

A Good Political Suggestion

The Texas legislature did a wise
thing when it began an investiga-
ton to learn if the tax payers of
the state were paying out their
good money to keep up lot of
useless officers. 1t is perhaps true
that there are men swinging to the
government seat who ought to be
between the pillow handles or
swinging a sledge hammer over an
anvil, and Florida is no exception.
There are altogether too many po-
litical debts paid through public
office, and when the applicants ex-
coed the supply new Offices are
created and the tax payers foot
the bills. Perhaps Florida is no
worse than other States in this re-
spect, but this should not prevent
us from putting on the breaks in
the interest Of economy and hon
esty.-Apalachicola Times.

Bright Days Ahead

Reports from the G. Ii. Division
of the Atlantic Coast Line indicate
that freights are considerably de-
layed on account Of the work on
the government camp at Arcadia.
Perhaps, if the railroad is not able
to take care of the freight traffic,
it will put the boat lines to Punta
Gorda to work again. We can re-
member the time when Tampa
boats called at Punta Gorda one
way on each trip. 1t would not
be such very bad idea if some Of
that Gulf traffic were resumed in
that part of the world.-Lakeland
Advertiser.
Yes, both Gulf traffic and the
Peace River traffic should be and
will be resumed and extended up

Appreciated Appreciation

Nothing gratifies an editor more
than to know that his work is APP
preciated. 1t not only makes him
feel good, but it cheers him in his
labors and stimulates him to do
even better, if possible.
This editor has been highly
pleased Of late by many evidences
of appreciation on the part of
friends, some Of whom sent him
souvenir cards, others donating
edibles, while still others wrote
him notes conveying their good
will and complimenting him on his
efforts. Of the last kind, two
that were received last week gave
him especial pleasure.
One of these was from Marcus
C. Fagg, state superintendent of
the Children's Home Society,
Jacksonville, an institution to
which all Florida editors give cor
dial support. The other was, the
following:
Punta Gorda, Dec. 2Sth, 1917.
Hon. A. P. Jordan,
Editor Punta Gorda Herald -
Dear Sir and Friend We
have read with much pleasure the
nice compliment that your paper
so kindly paid us in the last issue,
and wish to thank you for same
and to assure you that it will be a
pleasure for either one or all of us
to reciprocate at any time in any
way that we can.
Our greatest ambition and de-
sire at all times is to render cour-
teous, prompt, effectual and salts
factory service to all our patrons
and we did work and try so hard
to do this in and through the
Christmas rush-and we are CRATE
full indeed to know that there are
those who recognize and appreci-
ate our efforts in this direction.
AT times, the strain seemed as
though it would reach the break
ing point and that the physical
man could not endure more; but,
when we find that our efforts are |
appreciated, we are more than
paid for the work and worry.
Your friends,

SPORTS
DRAFT LOTTERY Is
ONE OF SCENES OF
BIG APOLLO DRAMA
EDDIE PLANK is
GOING TOSTART
HIS 10Th SEASON

pitcher is left in the game who
was there when he started-few
ball players in less difficult posi-
lions have survived him. He has
seen Matthewson come and fade.
He has watched the completed ca
reers of Rucker, Waddell, Joe
Wood, Ed Walsh, Donovan, Null
len and the other greats.
Plank has lost his speed. His
curve Is not what 1t once was. But
he developed a slow ball and has
retained his wonderful control.
With these assets and his uncanny
knowledge of batting and his ac-
curate sense Of what batter can
or cannot hit, 1t is not surprising
that he should come back for his
nineteenth season.
Perhaps Plank's most remark
able game was pitched last year
when he held the hard-h.tting De-
troit Tigers to two hits in nine in
nings, shutting them out Few
pitchers could hold the Tigers to
two hits. Think Of facing Cobb,
Witt, Veach, Bush and Spencer,
inning after inning, and doing out
to them miserable brace of hits.
The average life of a star in the
big leagues is less than 10 years.
The average star has passed his
prime at 80. Think this over, then
consider Eddie Plank, the wonder
southpaw.

The most surprising thing about
the recent trade between the Yam
KEGS and the Browns which in
volved four players and cash
consideration on the part OF the
Yanks and two players on the
part of the st. Louis outfit, was
the fact that Eddie Plank was
included.
When Plank left the Browns
last summer and went back to
Gettysburg, It was generally as
sumed that he had quit the game
for good. Plank said so, and IN
st. Louis II was believed that the
old southpaw arm had forever lost
its cunning.
II had only been within the last
couple of weeks that Fielder
Jones, In one of his rare inter-
views, said he expected Plank
back this year and his trade veri-
fled the suspicion that the veteran
after IS years still has something
left.
Eddie Plank is undoubtedly one
OF the most remarkable pitchers
the game has ever produced. He
is undoubtedly the most re-
markable southpaw.
At 40, with IS years of effective
service behind him, Plank can
look back and see the comings
and goings OF almost all the
great pitchers of two decades. Not
