Woman's Club Meeting

The club rooms had received more
than usual attention at the meeting
on Wednesday y afternoon, large
ported plants and ferns and lovely
roses in silver vases Frightening the
assembly room, and a gorgeous col
lection of bronze chrysanthemums
forming the centerpiece of the tea
table, attractively spread in the tea
room. A letter Of appreciation from
the Christian Church for the use of
the club room during the remodelling
Of their building was read; also an
appeal from the postmaster, Mr.. w.
A. Adams, to cooperate with the
postoffice authorities to mail Christ
mas packages early and refrain from
mailing anything between IL o'clock

such arrangement. This led to the
appointment of a Resolution Com
mittee with Mrs. Womble chairman,
with the purpose of exercising some
influence to prevent such deplor-
able loss to the community. Mrs. R.

Asa Knight Shows
Faith in Ben Hill

Asa Knight, formerly we'll known
jitney driver in the city, but for the
past two years resident of New
Smyrna, Fla, spent last week in the
city and invested some of his Florida
profits in Ben Hill county farm,
four miles east of the city and resi-
dence property in the city, stating
that he will want to live here, after
he gets rid of his Florida investments
and finds this the best time to invest
in BenHill county property. Another
farm of 100 acres, has also been con-
tracted for, subject to perfected the
title. This is the spirit for our tenn
porary absentees to take and it is
thought that others of our absent
friends will invest their profits in
Ben Hill county.

First Methodists to Observe
Golden Rule Sunday

The members and friends of the
First Methodist Church are asked to
observe international Golden Rule
Sunday for the benefit of the $4,000
orphans in the Near East. The plan
to be followed here is to prepare a
very simple inexpensive dinner for
next Sunday, December 9Th, and give
the difference between the cost of
this and the usual big dinner. In ac-
tual money this will cost nothing, yet
it is a simple sacrifice that will do all
of US much good and will make a
wonderful impression for good upon
all who may be in our homes on that
day.
We of America have rescued these
orphans and cared for $4,000 of them
until now. We will stand by and
be glad to do it to see these, our
wards, safely through to maturity.

Resolutions to DIR. r. M. Ware

1t is we'll KIN n fact, that among
the splendid institutions of our city,
there is none of which we are more
justly proud than the Fitzgerald Hos
pital. We consider this one of the
chief attractions to which we can
point with pride when offering in
ducements to prospective citizens.
We are also quite sure that among
our splendid citizery there. is no class
which we can trust as our most
efficient physicians and surgeons.
We like to tell our friends about the
excellent service rendered at our hos
pital, and the splendid work done by
our doctors at that institution. In
fact, we might repeat, that Fitzgerald
has nothing else that fills us with so
much pride, and for this reason, we,
the Woman's Club, wish to foster this
institution and we are very Jealous
of it's welfare.
We feel very deeply concerned
over the information that DIR. R. M.
Ware, one of our leading surgeons,
is seriously considering moving to
Florida, and we feel constrained to
take some action to prevent this loss
to our city.
Therefore, we, the committee ap-
pointed by the Woman's Club, beg to
offer the following resolutions:
LIST. That we wish to express to
DR.. Ware our appreciation of his true
worth as friend, and as a citizen,
but more of all we would assure him
of our appreciation of his efficient
medical services in our town, county
and state.
End. That we desire to convey to
DR.. Ware how very much we deplore
the fact that he is considering leav-
ing Fitzgerald and removing from
our midst his splendid family.
3rd. That, since we believe Fitz-
gerald cannot afford to loose such a
useful citizen and his estimable FAM
lily, we beg, in behalf of our city that
he will no longer consider leaving but
will continue to make Fitzgerald his
home.

Fitzgerald, Ga.

The Reaper of Death has once
more visited our midst, and George
Whitman, Grand Army Veteran Lead
er, is with US no more.
No one man in Fitzgerald has done
more to inculcate good will and
brotherly love than G. E. Whitman.
We will miss him from our already
depleted ranks, but destiny points to
the fact that we too, will soon join
him in that unexplored and unknown
land.
We recommend that copy of this
resolution be published in our city
papers and copy be placed on file
in our book of records.

Tampa, Fla, Dec. Wind dashed
and rain soaked Tampa and other
cities along the west coast of Florida
tonight were shaking off the effects
of 52-mile wind and rain storm
which swept this section early today.
The weather bureau here described
the storm as "phenonmnap and the
worst winter season blast in So years.
A 20-mile wind and a drizzle of
rain were sweeping Tampa's streets
and out in the gulf steamers were re-
porting to local wireless stations that
stiff breezes were causing a high
running sea.
The toll from the storm in Tampa
stood tonight at five known dead,
four missing and 10 seriously injured
in hospitals. All of the dead, missing
and injured were said to be negroes.
The total amount of damage to
property along the west coast could
not be estimated early tonight, Off
Gals said. Conservative citizens said
it would reach we'll into million
dollars.
Communications with all impor-
tant points had been established
by night. Lakeland, Clearwater, St.
Petersburg, Bradenton, Sebring,
Avon Park, Sarasota, Fort Myers and
other cities reported damage by wind.
C. C. Commander, general mana
ger of the Florida Citrus Exchange,
reported that the citrus crop as a
whole suffered little damage. This
statement, he said, was based on re-
ports received from Polk, Manatee
and Volusia counties. Other sections
have not yet been heard from.

Mackmen:s Flop
Due to Deader
Ball, Says Harris

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. s.
The less lively major league ball
may have played a part in the
: downfall OF the Athletics, in the
opinion of BuclHy Harris, Wash
ington manager.
"The Athletics he said, chad
habit Of getting their runs in
big clusters. They got as high
as 13 in one inning. They were
winning most Of their games
that way but the lively ball was
a helping factor. With some OF
the jack rabbit tendencies Of the
ball removed, the Mackmen
haven't been punching their tai
lies so numerOusly or eff.
GENTLY"
Harris looks for a return to
the normal batting standards OF
the pre-Ruthian era, when il was
a distinction to be a 800 hitter.
