Lake Wales, Feb. GA citrus tree

ing at the mammoth grove near here,
it is understood.
The tree is expected to bear four
teen varieties of fruit at one time.
Nature intended the tree to bear
grapefruit, it is said, but a man of
the experiment flair, has grated
the other varieties of citrus fruit
onto it, and now is awaiting the day
when tangarines, kumquats, lines, a
temple orange and many other fruits
of the kind come out in rainbow ar
ray. The tree is growing on the two
acre plot of the grove set aside as a

POLAND FAST BECOMES
SELF SUPPORTING, TO
GO ON OWN HOOK SOON
CBy Associates Press)

Warsaw, Feb. 6.-Poland is grad
ually making her place in the world
as self-supporting nation, accord
ing to recent reports of allied eX-
perts in economies.
Within the last few months the
new republic has made rapid strides
toward Strengthening many difficult
ties, in the opinion of the students
of economics, one of the principal
factors assisting in balance in Po-
lands favor being liquidation of the
Upper Silesian matter which had
been hanging fire for nearly three
years, the settlement giving the
Poles their own coal and from 10,-
100000 to 100000 tons annually
for export.
The population of Poland is ap-
proximately 30,000,000.
While the American relief admin
istration continues to feed some 500,-
900 children in the devastated areas
and some of the crowded industrial
centers, it is planned to abandon
this work altogether in the spring,
as. with good crops another season,
the experts believe the government
and the people will be able to get
along without outside help.
The necessity of buying foreign
exchange for foodstuffs, a situation
which Poland faced from the begin
ming, has almost passed, and agri-
culturists estimate that, with few
exceptions, the country's own prod
ucts will meet the requirements. This
is expected to relieve the constant
drain upon the government treasury
which bought flour and other neces-
sites from America and elsewhere
and sold them at loss to the people.
To assist in meeting current ex-
penses an emergency tax legislation
has been enacted by the diet, from
which a return of something like SO,-
100000 marks is expected. The reg
ular tax assessment has been read
justed with the aim of bringing in a
return which will offset the present
deprecated value of the Polish mark
and the increased cost of govern
ment.

Thousand Men Attended
Service in Afternoon
Hour
NEW RECORD At NIGHT
Over 1900 Crowded Into
Tabernacle to Hear
Great Message

Sunday marked high tide in the
Bob johnson revival services in point
of attendance as we'll as decisions
for Christ. At the special service
Sunday afternoon for men only over
a thousand were in attendance and
there were ten decisions. The big
male chorus was a feature.
Sunday night marked the largest
attendance yet, more than $500 peo-
pie assembling at the tabernacle and
thirty-five decided for Christ. Among
those confessing were men, women
and youn gpeople, boys of ID kneel-
ing beside gray-haired men, and
misses beside their elder sisters. One
boy of IA walked seven miles to at
tend the service in the afternoon and
was converted.
Friends of the Johnson party Wis
tied the tabernacle Sunday from St
Augustine, and at the evening serv-
ice an orchestra of fourteen pieces
added to teh chorus. The choir plat
form was filled to capacity and, as
on every former occasion, the music
was inspirational. Professor Taylor
has developed one of the strongest
singing organizations ever heard in
this state.
A large portion of the running ex'
penses of the campaign were quickly
raised yesterday and those in charge
of the work were much gratified. Or
Sunday, February 10, special col
lection will be taken up for Rev
Johnson.

Fort Lauderdale, Feb. 6.-Interest
centers here today in the preliminary
hearing of charges againS twelve
men and one woman of violation of
the state laws against conducting
confidence games. The hearings
will be held this afternoon when it
is expected that some sensational
evidence will be introduced, showing
that the gang captured here is COM
prised of some of the most notorious
crooks in the country.
The raid was planned and execut-
ed by Deputy Sheriff R. H. Shackel-
ford, from the office of Sheriff R. E.

been sent here by Governor Cary A.
Hardee at the request of merchants

city appealed to Governor Hardee,
stating they were satisfied that a
gang of confidence men was operat-

had been unable to get the local city
and county authorities to rid the city

Governor Hardee advised Sheriff
Merritt of the situation in Broward

Putnam National
Takes Up Issue of
School Warrants

At today's session of the county
school board the Putnam National
Bank agreed to take over the entire
issue of seven per cent time warrants
issued some tine ago for the purpose
of defraying current expenses of the
schools. This will relieve the board
of considerable worry, as the members
haev been facing a deficit that would
mean delay in paying off the teachers.
The board also decided to actively
present the conditions and needs for
the issuance of time warrants for the
construction of the new high school
here and the one at Crescent City. The
people of the county, it was brought
out, do not understand that unless
county high school is constructed
all of those living outside the Palatka
district will have no high school next
year, as the demands on the present
building, which is the sole property
of the Palatka district, are such that
the board will not be able to accept
any OUTSIDE students.

today, kept in national honor, will
mark the beginning of new and bet
ter epoch in human progress" He
