On Thanksgiving the local B.
T. Washington and Dorsey high
groups looked pretty" on parade
as they marched to Dorsey Park
for the annual football tryout.
Both bands played well and
showed signs of good training.
But the game was the thing. BY
long shot, Dorsey took the cake
from Washington, to the disap-
pointment of all Washingtonians!
Losing upsets almost everybody
so 1t was with some of the young
folk. Well, you can't win all the
time 49, and it is in losing in your
little battles that you learn to
take it" in the bigger battles of
life. Losing is sign that you are
not quite as good as you thought,
or that you underestimate your
opponent. At any rate, don't run
hot and lose your head. Just keep
cool and pull up for the next
game. If you don't win 'em all
you can be good sport.

FELTON, has applied to the u. S.
Army Engineers at Jacksonville
for permission to build a conSid-

present docks used by the A and

It is not known when the
shrimp beds here would be ex-
hausted. Sometimes the shrimp
have been found one day, and
the next day have disappeared.
But these beds certainly look
as though there would be good
catches to be made in them for
some time, said FELTON, We're
getting enough boats TO fish the
shrimp beds and we will soon
know whether they are as size
able as they now seem.
You can be sure of one thing,
that Key West will be a busy
spot during the next few weeks.
1t is estimated that about S35, 200
a week payroll for the boatmen
will be paid out here. There are
three men aboard each shrimp
boat.
''They will have to live in Key

the shrimp industry. if it pans
out as I expect it to, will be an
