SHRINE RS NIGHT
ON friday NIGHT
TO BE BIC NIGHT
Shriners of County and
Adjacent Towns Will
Follow the Band

Friday evening will be "Shriners'
night" at the Putnam County Fair
and every Shriner in the county and
the adjoining districts, as we'll as all
visiting Shriners, is expected to gath
er at Shrine hall promptly at
O'Clock. Promptly means exactly on
time, according to the time table of
that organization.
The entire body will then proceed
to march to the fair grounds, headed
by the full band of the Johnnie j.
Jones aggregation. Once there the
grounds will. belong to that Masonic
body, although, of course, there will
be thousand or more of the general
public who will be anxious to see how
the Shriners behave when they de-
sire to "cut up"
1t is expected that the night will be
the banner occasion of the entire
fair. The day, up to 6 in the evening,
will be styled "Colored Peoples day."
and there is expected that a very
large delegation of the colored peo-
pie will take advantage of having a
day all to themselves-although no
white people will be barred from at
tending on Friday. With a "Colored
Peoples day" in the day time, and
"Shriners' night" in the night time,
Friday, December 8, should be a ban
ner day for the first annual Putnam
County Fair.

measure and to that urging pay
ments of state officials on a
moth basis.
The above is but a sample of the
work carried out at a regular meet
ing of the board, yet there are to be
found those who believe the body is
but plaything for this faction or
for that faction. There is a volume
Iof business carried on by the Palatka
Chamber of Commerce which cannot
be told in one brief article; and the
above is merely given in brief form
to partially illustrate the point at is
sue.
The Palatka Chamber of Commerce
is not "a one-man affair" 1t is an
institution which has no faction to
serve; no selfish ends to attain. 1t
is for the good of the whole people
and, therefore, the whole people
should most enthusiastically support
it, buoth by membership and by per-
sonal attendance at each and every
meeting. There is work to be done
by every member-and the opinion
of one man expressed at each meet
ing is equal to that of any other man.
A small cord will not draw ditch
ed car to the highway and start it on
its way, but couple of hundred
cords, twisted into one solid rope will
easily do the work. That is what is
needed now-and sorely needed, it is
true-to put the car of progress on
the surfaced road to Ultimate Sue
cess. There is no one in this city and
county so disloyal as not to be inter
ested in the advancement of his home
locality, even though he has not ex-
pressed himself; and the commercial
body needs every man at every meet
ing.
PALATKA IS STANDING ON
THE UP GRADE. ALL 1T NEEDS
IS A UNITED EFFORT, AN Eff
FORT FREE FROM ALL SELFISH
NESS AND SUPERINTENDENT
TO PUSH A LITTLE HARDER, A
LITTLE LONGER, A LITTLE
STRONGER: THEN THE CITY
REACHES THE TOP AND WILL
STAY WHERE OTHER CITIES IN
THE STATE MAY LOOK UP AT
IT. COOPERATION WILL BRING
ABOUT THE RESULT. THE
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE NEEDS
THAT COOPERATION, AND
NEEDS 1T NOW.

YOUNG LAD IMPROVING

The many friends Of little John
Berry Davis, son of Mr.. and Mrs. w.
Carl Davis, will be pleased to learn
that the cast was removed from his
broken leg late Friday, and there is
every prospect that the lad will soon
be able to get about. The little fell
low has stood the several weeks OF
confinement in fine manly shape, and
is especially pleased that an end OF
his troubles is now in sight.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
NEEDS UNANIMOUS SUPPORT

There is need in Palatka for de-
cided and decisive stand for the
Chamber of Commerce.
No city lacking such a commercial
body can make Roadway in the same
ratio as a city that is well-equipped
with an active body.
Here and there may be found an
Individual with a personality and an
ability to bring certain lines of pro-
gress into being; but even then his
efforts would be realized to a much
greater extent if the entire people
wer ewith him.
Palatka has an excellent Chamber
of Commerce and there are a large
number of names upon its roster.
There should be double the present
number, as every citizen in the city
and county is interested in the advan-
cement of the entire area.
There is lacking in Palatka that
solid support for the Chamber Of
Commerce which an institution of the
calibre deserves. 1t is not enough
that one pays his subscription
promptly when due-for that is but
one of the needs of the association,
yet one of the points which make it
valuable. What the Palatka Cham
Der of Commerce requires to make it
the magnificent success which is the
goal sought is the moral support of
every member, and the presence of
every member at each meeting.
There is need of a revival in Palat-
ka of that spirit of unanimity along
the lines of business connected with
the Chamber of Commerce, and the
Chamber of Commerce is intimately
connected with every business indus
try of the city and county There
should be a revival at which each
business and private individual in
Palatka should vow that not only
should his name be kept on the roster
of the organization but that there
should be no meeting held in which
he would fail to be present. A sue
cessful revival of that sort would be
wonderful for Palatka and would be
resultant in splendid growth along
all lines.
Sometimes there is to be found one
who, not being thoroughly posted as
to all the. matters handled by the local
commercial b9dy, will question its
work and belittle the motives which
stimulate its undertakings. Such re-
ports could never be circulated by one
who kept in close touch with the or
ganization. To better illustrate the
many matters handled by the Palatka
Chamber of Commerce it might be
well to recite the business Of a meet
ing of the body, and at random the Of
fetal proceedings of the October
meeting are herewith told:
Letters from the secretary of
state, from the state department
board, and from several bodies
urging attendance at Orlando
meetings, were considered; also
a letter from DR.. J. T. Hosey re-
garding bridge tolls.
Reported that of the $1,000

pledged to the Parasite commit
tee 1910 had been collected and
data read regarding the eXpendi-
lures of the same, with an invita-
ton that the improvements made
be examined. Progress reported
on Road No. 3. Advices read
showing that the state road de-
partment was ignoring all de-
mands from this county, and the
matter of urging the adjustment
of that department by legislative
action was taken up.
Discussion of the needs of Pa?
latka for a municipal dock and
warehouses brought out the con-
clusion that both were sadly nee
ded to forward the city's inter
ests, and the committee was in
structed to confer with the city
council and continue to urge ac-
ton upon the part of that body
The good roads committee re-
ported its final decisions on the
proposed roads and the concrete
bridge.
Action was taken to call a
mass meeting to consider the ex-
tension Of the term of the grade
schools, and devise ways and
means to finance the project.
Under the head of new indus
tries a report was read on the
given the Palatka Clay pro-
ducts Company, and the promise
of just taxation for the invest
ment Of the capitalists.
The matter of additional build
ings at the fair grounds was ia
ken up and E. L. Mann's sugges-
ton that help should be extended
in the matter was agreed upon.
The committee seeking to To-
cate capital for a large hotel to
be conducted upon a tourist ba-
sis and one which would induce
greater winter residents list,
made report that it was merely
awaiting replies from letters sent
to a nationally known hotel sys-
TEN.
The Red Cross drive was given
due consideration, and help from
the association was pledged.
The institution of another in
dustry was reported and it was
learned that certain conditions in
machinery shipments were delay
ing the work of the barrel plant.
A committee was named to in
terview the city council and re-
quest a donation of $1,000 and
other concessions for the aid of
the county fair. The donation
and concessions were obtained
through the work Of the Cham
Der of Commerce.
The matter of securing more
equitable tolls on the St. Johns
river bridge was taken up, and a
committee was appointed to con-
fer with the commissioners re-
garding the measure.
The matter of considering the
four amendments to the state
constitution was taken up in a
non-political way, and endorse
ments were given to the school

Treasurer and made off with $1,000 of the municipal funds
Caught and sentenced to four years Imprisonment he
pardoned by Emperor William in 1908 and subsequently Wis

Alliances

Our first President fixed the foreign policy of the United
States clearly and equvocay when ne adjured his fellow
countrymen to enter permanent alliance with any
other power This policy has been reafed by practically
all his 1t reiterated with great positveness
latest national campaign by present president and
confirmed by majority Of the people great to be
beyond the range of comparison"
These the words of wisdom uttered by that great
diplomat George Harvey ambassador to Great Britain no
longer ago that last November Yet two months later
the United States enmeshed despite this sacred mandate
from the people, in two entangng foreign alliances four
power alliance in the Pacific to protect Japan and five
power alliance for the rest of the world
And these entangng alliances have been ahered by that
mpeccable statesman Henry Cabot Lodge, under whose
wise leadership the alliance with late allies re-
ected and the world embracing alliance to
spurned
1t is evident that foreign policy laid down by Washing
ton very sacred thing ark Of the covenant, when
democrat is president and must be preserved for national
saIvationbut under republican president it becomes
thing of shreds and patches-discarded as it were
1t is fearsome thing to contemplate fifty power
alliance to peace but four five alliance
dabbe with disarmament, is pretty nifty And the old
world heaves such sigh Of relief the knowledge that
has been made respectable aganat least until the
fighting begins
