The regular monthly meeting of
the board of directors of the Palatka
Building and Loan association was
held at the Hotel James last evening
at 7 O'Clock with President Wagner

funds accumulated.

resignation as director because he is
planning to move from Palatka to

to accept his resignation with keen
regrets and to express to Mr.. Shep-
pard the best wishes of the associa-

CELLAR CHAMPS
ARE NEMESIS Of
n. \. OUTFITS
IBy Associated Press)

New York, Sept. 6.-Double-bar-
relied disaster at the hands of the
Boston clubs, tailenders in both
leagues, left the pennant prospects
of the New York clubs in a preca-
rious condition today.
The Red Sox, a jinx most of the
season to the Yankees, jolted the
American league champions from
the lead with a double defeat, 4 to 8,
and 6 to 5, while St. Louis nosed out
Cleveland, 10 to 9. The Braves gave
the Giants twin trouncing by scores
of so and 412, and as Pittsburg
crushed the st. Louis Cardinals, Ito,
New York's lead over the Pirates was
cut to four and a half games.
Yankee discards helped the Red
Sox to make it II victories out of IS
games with the Yankees this season.
Johnny MitchelPs home run in the
first and Del Pratt's circuit clout
in the second were blows that spell
ed defeat for Higgins two pitching
aces, Bob Shawkey and Joe Bush.
Ken Williams helped tht Browns to
regain the lead by walloping out his
34th homer with the bases full, tying
Rogers Horsby for the major league
smuggling lead. George Sisler slam
med out two hits, bringing his streak
of consecutive hitting to So games,
five behind Ty Cobb's American
league record, made in 1911, and nine
back of Willie keeler's old National
league mark, made when he was with
Baltimore in 1897.
Pitching weakness that has become
chronic with the Giants and failure
to solve Frank Miller and Rube Mar
guard were the principal factors in
their double setback. Ryan was

secretary also called the directors
attention TO the wonderful proper
tions to which the Building and Loan
association of the United States have
grown. He stated that the actual
assets of the 5000 building and loan
associations equal the paid-up cap
itaI of all the banks and trust COM
panies, and also equal to 40 per cent
of all the money in circulation in the
United States. Fifty-one per cent of
the enormous assets of three billion
dollars are held by three states, name
ly, Pennsylvania, Ohio and New
Jersey. This is probably due to the
fact that the building and loan. idea
had it's inception in Philadelphia and
gradually spread outward from that
point. The secretary said that while
the people of Florida have been rath-
err slow to take advantage of the
wonderful possibilities of the build
ing and loan idea as to thrift and
home building, at the same time the
growth is steadily increasing and
that undoubtedly as soon as they be-
come more familiar with the safety
ard horne building features the
growth will ,be more rapid.
The directors expressed themselves
as being very we'll pleased with the
growth of the association during the
four short months of its existence,
and said they believed that the Pa
latka Building and Loan association
would soon be considered one of the
greatest assets to the city of Palatka.
The affairs Of the association are
growing to such a degree that the di-
rectors are casting about to find a
location on the street floor of the
downtown section, in order that the
office shall be more accessible. The
directors voted to loan money to help
in the erection of two more homes
in the downtown section of Palatha.
