Lumber company and the Wilson
Cypress company won't pay the run

other supplies, pay taxes, interest

"If Ocala and Palatka want the
road to stay on the map, they will
have to get together and do some
thing practical for it. AS The Star
has said several times before, a stock
company could buy the road, make
connection with the st. Johns river
boats and in a FIVE years make its
money back in lower freight rates
for all this region. If the little road
is kept alive, it will always be a
check on possible extortions by the
big lines, but a tpresent it is moth
ing more than a log road for a rap
lidy vanishing supply of timber"

KEEN CONTEST IN
POST CARDS NEAR
END OF CAMP PA|GN
Contest Comes to End
at f O'Clock Tuesday
Evening
R0TAR|ANS IN FRONT
'KiWanis Close Second,
With Scout Race
Just as Close

AS the end of the postcard cam
paign approaches the contest for
first place grows in intensity, with
the Rotarians slightly in the lead in
the number of cards mailed and the
Boy Scouts slightly leading the Girl
Scouts in number of cards collected
for mailing.
The contest will be brought to a
close at 6 o'clock Tuesday evening
making the six full days, as the cam
paign did not get under way until
Wednesday morning. 1t is believed
that by that time results will be more
satisfactory. The splendid work be-
ing done by the Boy Scouts and Girl
Scouts is largely responsible for the
interets which has been aroused, and
has resulted in thousands of cards
being sent that never would have
been sent otherwise.
Up to 10 o'clock this morning,
when the last computations were
made, total of 1858 cards had
been requisitioned from the cham
Der of commerce, but of this number
only SAL had been actually mailed,
indicating that there will be grand
rush on the last day of the campaign.
Of the nnmber-ef cards turned in
for mailing Rotarians had address
ed 2,951, the Kiwanians 1887, the
schools 1881, the Woman's club l.
OOS and the American Legion "a.
The most notable gain was that of
the schools and today pupils are out
working for their cause.
Addresses on these cards indicate
that they are being sent all over the
country, many notables being among
the addresses. Former President
Woodrow Wilson will get several
cards telling him of the advantages
and beauties of Palatka, so will
President Harding, Henry Ford,
Thomas Edison, John D. Rockefeller,
United States senators and repre-
sentatives and mayors, sheriffs,
county and city clerks and other of
ficials in every state in the union.
Secretayr Hart has thousands of
cards yet to be mailed, and hopes to
dispose of his entire stock of $4,000
by tonight, so that it will be neces-
sary to print others Monday MORN
ing.

Chop Suey as Made

COblenz, Dec. 17.-Amerlcan chop

The chop suey idea was conceived
by an American soldier-Walter E.
Smith, who opened shop when his

Germans didn't pay much atten-

curiosity got the best of them at last

OLDER EASTLAKE CHILD
MAY TAKE STAND STATE
DECIDES IN LAST HOUR
dBy Associated Press.l

Montross, Va, Dec. 17.-A num-
Der of witnesses remained to be call
ed today by the defense in the trial
of Roger D. Eastlake, naval petty
officer, for the murder of his wife
at their Colonial Beach home on
September 30 with which he is
charged jointly with Miss Sarah
Knox, Baltimore nurse.
1t appeared unlikely that the case
would go to the jury before Tuesday
with the question undecided as to
whether the court would call to the
stand Eastlake's 9-year-old son, ,Rog-
er.
Judge Chinn adjourned court for
an hour yesterday and went to a ho-
tel where the two Eastlake children
are staying here to interview them
and satisfy himself as to their COM
potency to testify. He decided that
the 5-year-old daughter was not COM
petent, but stated he believed the
boy was, and said the court might
itself call him to the stand before
the case was closed. The children
gave important testimony before the
coroner's jury.
Franklin Carruthers, a neighbor
of the Eastlake family, testified that
he had heard a child scream and the
sound of a commotion in the East
lake house as he passed on his way
to wokr the morning of the killing
and on boarding the boat about eight
minutes later found Eastlake there

never come again.
eve must build up our legions so
big and fine and strong, and tie them
into our national existences by such
firm bodS of service, that our great
nations will stand behind the men
who offered their lives for the de-
fense of liberty. That is our first
task.
"Our next task stands clearly be-
fore US, and for this great service to
aumanitS we pledge ourselves to you
our comrades of yesterday, today

That the Stacker lists contain
