The SAME THING
ONLY MOKE 50
BARlOW'S FATE

The futility Of butting up against
stone wall was again Iorcefully
demonstrated at Barlow ON Thursday
afternoon when the Lakeland Kiwanis
team, far-famed champions, tackled
the Barlow kiwanian aggregation. 1t
was a pleasant tiYeinnmg party with
Doc Miller, OF Southern League repu-
tation, ON the mound for the Barlow
ties. Doc started OFF like a whirlwind
but used bad judgment in wasting all
his steam at the beginning of the con-
test. He lasted only two innings
when the Lakeland ks found his
number, pounding out eight hits for
seven runs. Judge Spessard Holland
stepped into the breach but those i'll
hammered Kis seemed to have no re-
spect Ior' the bench while on the dia-
m0nd.. running up the tally until it
had reached lucky thirteen at the en1
OF the fifth. Bush Lacquer Garner
had day off, playing right field while
Bryan Meharg did the mound work in
good style.
Barlow Kiwanians and their friends
were out in strong array while Lake
land also sent down a gOod-sized dele
CATION to cheer their favorities to
victory. Everybody had a good time.
In all probability the Lakeland XII
wants team will now proceed TO book
Tampa for the next contest, it being
suggested that Thursday of next
week would be as good a time as any
to introduce the Tampa Kiwanians to
Il real ball team. No decision has yet
been reached as to how large the
score will be allowed to run in favor
OF Lakeland.
Here is Yesterdays lineup.

OUR DUTY TO OUR OWN.

That very sensible thinker, Vice
President Coolidge, speaking to Re
publican gathering at Lansing, Michi-
gan, laid down in clear terms the first
law of a nations duty The law is not
different from that of personal duty.
Even the Man of Gailee, preaching
love to all the world said, Thou shalt
love thy neighbor as myself. " "As
myself" lie said. The first duty of
the individual is love of self, in the
highest sense a love of self that will
not suffer one to do wrong So says
MIR Coolidge, with a nation, Its first
duty Is to itself and it's own people
Before we can minister TO other nations,
we must have health and prosperity at
home. This has been, he claims, the
guiding thought Of the present admins
tration, "our own country our own
domestic welfare
MIR. Coolidge pointed out that our re-
fusal to enter the League Of Nations or
to become a party to the Treaty~of
Versailles left US free to manage our
own internal policies and 10 determine
our relations to other nations Wehave
not been forgetful Of our necessary re-
lationship to those other nations, but
neither have we forgotten that our

choice was not a narrow one. Yet
gradually II sinmered down to two,
Caroline Hemingway or Peggy Cur

somebody else !"
Now for Peggy.
If Peggy's soft voice over the tele-
phone carried with ii bit more of
thrill than had GATHERINGS. Jim was
scarcely aware of the fact as her words
struck gradual dismay to his soul.

the admonition of the United States
Treasury department. The department
is moved TO issue this warning because
spectators are now offering more for
the war savings stamps issued in 1918

many people TO believe they would get
a bargain by selling their stamps now
to the spectators. On the contrary,
they would be cheating themselves out

HOW WORLD SALVATION WILL
COME

People who are anxious to have the
United States cancel the debts due this
country are asserting that only the
United States can save the world. 1t
isn't true, but, if it were true. what OF
it. A world that depends upon any one
nation IL not worth saving. The fact
is, however, that the world will begin
