gathering be called soon to sound the
American attitude respecting Rus
sia, it is likely to be disappointing
to the creators of such a meeting.
Former Governor Goodrich, of In
diana, who is now returning to
America after extensive investiga-
tions in Russia, will doubtless report
to President Harding that there is
no danger of a counter revolution in
Russia, that the heads Of the soviet
government are beginning to accept
the advice of more practical men like
Krassin and are prepared to make
further concessions to capitalistic
pressure. TIE extremists are still
powerful and any alterations iu the
communist program must come slow
Ily, Mr.. Goodrich's report probably
will declare.

May Cut Team Down.

One of the plans the management
has had under consideration is the
cutting off of several players so as to
make both ends meet. This would,
necessarily, weaken the club, and
would take away from Palatka that
baseball prestige it now enjoys. The
advertising that Palatka has secured
By having such a strong bail club
has been Of untold value to the city,
as it is known in every section in the
state and the relative merits of ev-
cry other club are measured by the
Pals,
When the club opens here tOmor-
row with Gainesville it is hoped chat
everybody who can get away will be
in the grandstand prepared to root
for the home boys and build up in
terest again.
It was the hope Of the manage
ment that some time in September
state champion contest might be
pulled off, and this would be certain
to create statewide interest. Local
fans believe that Palatka would GER
tainly win such a contest, with pro-
vision made before the last few
weeks that no club was to add to its
roster after the final series BEGAN.

With Fastest Club in the
State, Fans Seem to Be
Indifferent

Palatka's crack ball team comes
home tomorrow for three games here
the last three days of the week with
Gainesville, ancient rivals of this city
in baseball. The management is
hopeful that there will be a revival
of interest in the game to the extent
that the patronage will get back to
where it was several weeks ago. I'm
less it does this may be the last
week of baseball with the team in its
present lineup. The series will be a
crisis in baseball affairs so far as the
present management is concerned.
Palatka has the best baseball park

and the best ball club in the state
not even excepting the league teams
but it takes money to provide such
team, and the revenue during the last
nine games at home has been Sc
small that the financial end of th'
undertaking is a total failure.
Much of the cause for financial de
pIetion is due to the extensive i'm
provements it was necessary to maxi

stand at a cost Of $1,5OO was con
structed, a new fence costing nearly

PEAT B0GS TO BE UTILIZED
Commercial Value of Immense Deposits
in Northwest Germany Has Not
Hitherto Been Realized.

The more or less successful install

utilization of the immense peat boys
that exist there has led to the sug-
5estion in England that the huge bog
of Allen In Ireland may next become
great center of industry. The Ger
man undertaking has contemplated
the bringing Of a large part of the
boys under cultivation, together with
the conversion of the peat into fuel,
to be employed in the development
OF electrical energy for agricultural
purposes as well as for supplying
light and power to a number of towns
situated within a radius of fifty miles.

ALLOW FOR FUTURE TRAFFIC
Count of Automobiles on Number of
Roads In Tennessee Shows Sur
prsing Fact.

Prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture)
In building a road liberal allowance
should be made for future increase in
.raffic, says the bureau of public roads
Of the United States Department of
Agriculture. A traffic count conducted
by the bureau in cooperation with
Tennessee officials on a number of
roads in Dawson county, in which
Nashville is located, show surprising
facts when compared with a similar
count in 1916. During this period au.
tomObile registrations have doubled,
while the number of motor vehicles or
the roads is five times as great as in
1916. In 1916 hOrse-drawn and motor.
vehicle traffic were almost equal in
volume. In 1921 horse-drawn traffic
had increased only slightly in volume
and constituted 10 per cent of the
traffic, motor vehicles constituting 81
per cent.
Observations in this and other coun.
tries lead to the conclusion that vol
| ume of traffic may increase in much
greater proportion than the number of
motor vehicles and will also depend
to a large degree on the condition of
improvement Of the road and on the
economic conditions in the adjacent
| territory.

SEEN THROUGH ENGLISH EYES
Traveller Declares American Women
Splendidly Domesticated and
Versatile to a High Degree.

An entertaining way for the Ameri-
can woman TO see herself as she is
seen is to follow the comments made
by the Manchester Guardians CORE
spondent in America, Muriel Harris:
In her home the American woman is
domestic almost in the German sense.
There Is no handing over the kitchen
entirely to the cook, for instance.
There Is no hard-and-fast line which
leaves this to the maid and that to
the mistress. Domestic crises are
more frequent even than in England,
but when they occur it is no special
tragedy, because the mistress of the
house is practically always able to fill
in the gap without shaking the founda-
tons of the household. American
women can nearly all OF them cook
and sew and do anything In the house
from managing the furnace to seeing
that the electric fuses are in order.
In our sense, she is far more domes-
ticated and less we'll educated than is
the European girl. The rather casual
education of the girl gives full play to
any versatility she may have, and
WI
flashes in her, as also unexpected fail
ures To the foreigner, it is odd to see
her scrubbing her own sink-a very
nice white sink, by the way-and at
tending assiduously lectures on French
all with the same enthusiasm. 1t
completely dispels the idea of the
luXury-loving, restless woman that in
Europe she is commonly regarded as
being.
