Stallings Is Puzzled
Whether to Measure
by Knots or by Miles

Some time ago when the good
roads committee completed its work
of making specification of the needed
road paving in the county, outside Of
the Rodman, Florahome and Crescent
City districts, the next step was to
secure the exact measurement of the
roads proposed to be paved, and for
this work S. C. Stallings was secured.
Mr.. Stallings made his plans to make
the proper measurements, but soon
found that there was so much water
on the roads that he was not certain
whether to measure by knots or miles
He will, however, on expert advice OF
land lubbers, wait few days until
the water recedes and make, the mea-
surements by miles.
1t is expected that it will require
several days to make these measure
ments and several more to secure the
petitions to present to the county
commissioners, so that it is hardly
probable that the petitions can be
prepared in time for presentation at
the November meeting, which is to
be held Monday. However, delega-
ton from the general roads commit
tee will go before the commissioners
and ask their cooperation in securing
definite plans and specifications for
the proposed new bridge, so that this
matter can be put up to the voters
of the Palatka and East Palatka dis
trictS.

Daytona High Will
Use New Stuff in
Game With Putnam

When Daytona's high school eleven
comes here Friday to tackle the Put
nam high boys in a return game they
will use soma new stuff, according to
information which comes from the
Daytona camp. Coach Bill Philen is
giving the boys a sever workout this
week, which will include a regular
game with the Daytona "All-Ameri-
cans" team made up of local col
lege stars.
But while the Daytona boys are
putting new stuff on, Coach Harold
Callahan is also adding to the repe-
torie of the local eleven. He isn't
using the Contra lockstep shift, but
he has the phantom pass" the three
way cross buck and bewildering
wing shift that will keep the Island
City boys guessing.
Fridays game should attract the
largest crowd that has ever attended
a football game on Pals field, The
Putnam High school eleven, playing
its second year, has developed remar-
kable football prowess, and ii may
easily be expected that another year,
with the proper support of the en-
tire city, it will be rated up among
the top-notchers of the state

Oyster King Was
Victim of Early
Season Grafters
(By Annotated Preasl

Apalachicola, Nov. Overcome
by the nature of the warm appeal
from two visitors who had called to
investigate his oyster proposition
which is bringing great fame to this
section of the state, William Lee
Popham has fallen for a ICON" game
to the extent that great wad of
bills" is said to have passed into the
hands of the couple who are now not
to be found according to tales told
in this city. The amount of money
thus transferred has not been made
public.
AS the story runs, the visitors were
greatly impressed with the magni-
tude of the propositions explained
by the oyster magnate, and were de-
termined to take a considerable
quantity of stock in the Undertaking.
At the last moment, however, the
feminine contingent of the duo found
that her purse was missing, leaving
her and her partner actually bank
rupt for the moment.
"Not enough money left for us to
return to Chicago" she walled, land
here we were planning to invest ev-
cry cent we could raise after we had
reached our home. 1t is just too bad
Just simply awfully Disappointing"
And the man with a vision, or,
rather, several of them, was touch
ed" both mentally and financially,
report says, and no time was spent
in hesitation. Popham's contribution
to the needy was both speedy and
liberal. He is still awaiting a letter
from Chicago.
The icon season" is now on in full
swing.

Cutting Out Slang
When Wising Up Is
the Proper Caper
By Associated Preasl

Iowa City, Iowa, Nov. 1.-lncorrect
speech and slang are to be the sub
jects of a nationwide campaign by
women's clubs and schools of the
country, according to Professor
Glenn N. Merry, head of the depart
ment of speech of the University of
Iowa and chairman of the joint COM
mittee of the National Council of
Teachers of English, the National
Association of Teachers of Speech
and the General Federation of Wom-
ems clubs, which are instituting the
better speech movement.
"Women's clubs will attack ineor-
rect speech the next week." he said.
SCHOOLS will take up the attack the
third woek in February. In both in
stances the action will be concerted
throughout the country and will be
an effort to erase the bad features of
our language"
The committee recognizes, Profess
sor Merry said, that our language is
not fixed and dead, but living and
subject to constant change; that two
general standards of usage exist,
good English, and vulgar English,
and that the usage by the educated
class should set the standard of
American speech.
"The policy of the committee is de-
termined by a broad ideal of avoiding
purism, fadism and artificial speech
on one hand and vulgarism on the
other" he said. "Distinctness of ut
terance and agreeable voice quality
are achievements in speech worthy of
cultivation"

Lucky Incidents
About Halloween
Around the CITY

The postoffice was not moved from
its mornings last night.
Many a window that has not seen
suds of shaken soap for full year
will be washed today.
Many young man old enough to
have established for himself style
for walking and running last night
adopted a new gate.
Even the electric lights in the
Grand wavered a bit last night when
the roysterous and boysetrous gangs
paraded.
For a wonder no one seemed to
have desire to "pull up" any of the
water hyacinths to be readily found
even on a dark night in the waters
of the st. Johns.
The public is ready to stand for a
general good time by the little folks
once year, but when boys have
reached the age of men it is time to
put silly things which do actual harm
far behind them.
Some people are born bright, and
some become bright as the years go
by; others get in a crowd and per-
form mischievous pranks that are ex-
pensive for the victims.
The fact that Halloween comes but
once year reminds all that it is
fully time to commence to do Christ
mas shopping early.
Fortunate for all the city there
were no alarms of fire turned in last
night.
But things were found scattered all
over the seen on the morning that
followed last Halloween.
