When the Creator had made all the

work to do, so He made the beasts
and reptiles and poisonous insects,
and when He had finished He had
some scraps that were too bad to put
into the Rattle Snake, the Hyena, the
Scorpion, and the Skunk. so He put
ell these together, covered it with
suspicion. wrapped it with jealousy
marked it with a yellow streak and
called it KNOCKER
This product was SO fearful to con-
template that He had to make some
thing to counterfeit it so He took d
sunbeam and put in the heart of "a
child. the brain CT a man, wrapped
these in civic pride, covered it with
brotherly love- gave it mask of vel

and flowers and manly sports, a be

TWENTY-FIVE CARS OF
FRUIT HAVE LEFT PLANT
CITY SINCE SEPT. 20
(Plant City Courier)


Up until this morning ninety-fivc
cars of fruit had gone from Plant City
to various parts Of this country and
Canada since the beginning of the
movement September goth. OF the
ninety-five cars, forty were grape
fruit, thirty-seven oranges and elgh-
teen mixed Nine of the eighteen
mixed cars were handled by the ex-
press company in small lot shipments.
The movement thus far for the
weeks totals fifteen cars. Two cars
of oranges went out Monday, two
grapefruit and two mixed Tuesday,
two orange and one mixed Wednesday
and one grapefruit, one mixed and
four oranges yesterday. Express ship
ments of fruit for the last three days
equaled two carloads.
Vegetable receipts since the first OF
the month just passed have passed the
six-thousand mark. Most of the veg
etables are getting scarce. Cucum-
bers are not nearly so numerous as
they have been. Eggplant are hold
ing up well, but there is practically
no more okra now. The squash crop
is nearly all out, and there has been
very little pepper received lately.
Due to the scarcity of vegetables
and the keen competition among buy
ers to fill their orders, no exact quo
tations can be given on the few re-
manning in the fields. The average
price paid for cucumbers yesterday
was between $1.50 and So. Elephants,
the only crop very plentiful at pres
ent. are bringing only 81. Okra is
bringing 50 and up. Pepper is said
to be worth around $1.75. Squash are
demanding an average price of

AFTERMATH

unto the third and fourth genera
I ton of them that hate me-
The hand of God is holden,
The lips of God are still;
Freely His creatures chooses
To cherish or to kill;
And you laugh as the altar crashes
And the wine of the cup is split,
And you shout that your sword shall
answer
To a pagan god for your guilt;
But when this night is ended,
But when new days begin,
Bitterly shall your children
Pay for their fathers sin
The wrath of many nations
Shall drive you to your place,
Man soul is risen against you,
Man S judgment you shall face
When the blood has dried in the val
ley,
And the guns come down from the
hill,
And the armies melt in the vineyards
And the harvest goes to the mill
Then, when the men are sowing,
Then, when the women spin,
Bitterly shall your children
Paw for their fathers sim
ESE&
me gates of life shall open,
The feast of love be spread,
Joy shall come in with music,
Bringing earth's wine and bread;
And the nations shall draw together
And the peoples shall be as one,
But you shall come in unwelcomed
And you shall sit down by none.
Slowly mans heart shall open
His doors to let you in;
Bitterly shall you children
Pay for their fathers sin.
The eyes of all shall mark you,
Lips as you pass are. dumb,
Into the patlislybi follow H'!T
No other guest shall come;
You shall sit at the feast unfriended,
You shall go from the house I'M
stayed,
You shall be on the earth stranger
Till the debt that you owe is paid.
Hardly to mans forgiveness
Shall Belgium's slayer win,
Bitterly shall your children
Curse for their fathers sin.

Court Says Defaced
Number Is No Crime

FREEPORT, Ill, Dec. 13.-In the Cir
cult Court today, Judge Harry Edwards
held invalid section 50 of the Illinois
motor vehicle law which makes it a mis-
demeanor to have in possession or offer
for sale an automobile with engine num-
Der defaced or altered. The court held
that unless person knowingly had
possession or offered to sell such a car,
he did not violate the law. The court
also declared invalid that portion of the
law which requires the removal and
junking Of engines with defaced or al
tered numbers.

Pritchard of the city court in finding ID.
bus" since the ordinance was declared
constitutional by Judge Scion j. Carter
of Superior Court, Room 8.
Myers appealed his case from the city
court as a test case when he was found
guilty of violating the city ordinance.
After Judge Carter refused to grant an
injunction preventing the enforcement OF
the ordinance, the court dissolved re-
straining order which he had issued tenn
pOrarily on a petition Of 700 Jitney
drivers.
Following this decision Of Judge Car
ter, the jitney drivers stopped asking
fares, but placed a collection box" in
their machines in which contributions
were placed by patrons.
The city legal department held that this
was a violation of the ordinance and the
police began making arrests.

ceptance of a fee rather than a precon-
sidered contract as to how much was to
have been paid.
1.-THE test Is whether or not there is
an implied contract that this or that per
son may ride for this or that sum and
whether that fee will finally fnd its way
into the drivers pocket.
II frequently ride in those buses and
1 never ask the driver how much it will
cost me. When a passenger gets into
one of the cars 1t is implied that the
driver will be paid something for hauling
that passenger. Every one who rides ex-
poets to pay something, and the driver
has the same expectation. At least he
has such strong hope that it amounts
to expectation. I cant find SO much diff
ference between that and carrying a sign
announcing that fare will be charged
of those who ride.
II think that 1t amounts to an IMPLIED
contract. The finding will be the same
as below, the defendant is guilty Of a
violation Of the city jitney bus ordi-
nance"
1t is thought the decision Of Judge
Chamberlin will end the legal battle
which has existed since the passing of
the ordinance, although some contend an
appeal may be taken to the Indiana State
supreme Court to test the constitution
ality Of the ordinance.
