M. Hetherington, son of the Hetheringtons who have ' made Lakeland famous, has purchased the Dade City Banner and we can ex- pect great things from the young man. He Ras tje correct schooling in newspaper work for the Lakeland Telegram is the work of both Mr. and Mrs. Hetherington, and no small part of its success is due to Mrs. Hetherington." i et . The prestize of unbroken victory and unchecked advance has depart- ed from the German banners, and unless the Kaiser has a trump card up his sleeve to take all his adver- saries’ tricks, his invasion of France has come to a halt that may end in something worse than retreat. German military resources have amazed the world, but with the last reserves of old men and boys called out it is evident that the agony of superlative tension has arrived and in a very short time we will know if Germany is to win or lose in her desperate gamble for success. With the allies being steadily reinforced and at least holding their own, while the Russian advancc is mak- ing its way towards Berlin, the Kaiser would need .to be more than a Napoleon to pluck victory from such heavy odds. 0 The Tarpon Springs Leader states with certainty that Governor Tram- mell has decided to appoint Editor Russell, of the Palatka News, as pro tem senator to succeed Senator Bry- an in the event of the latter’s resig- -~ nation before the November election to take a federal judgeship. But Governor Trammell, who was in Jacksonville Wednesday, informed a Times-Union reporter that he had not considered the appointment of a successor to Senator Bryan and that “he had no man in view to be appointed now or after the gonvral‘ way Cump:m\;’s ugriculturul election.” That is sufficiently defi-3;nd immigration agent. There nite to leave no doubt about the matter. Ot The Orlando Sentinel opines that as Henry Watterson missed it so badly in his estimate of Woodrow Wilson prior to that gentleman's election, he may be equally wrong in his appraisement of Emperor Wil- liam. But the cases are different. Marse Henry Dbelittled President Wilson because the latter hag snub- bed him, and thus wounded him in ‘his most sensitive part. This per- verted his judgment, gave him a grouch, and he was grossly unjust to Mr. Wilson in consequence. But he has no grouch against the Kaiser and he writes of him asfimpartially as GGibbon of a Roman emperor, and with much more data to guide him. ——0 Wars and rumors of wars are not worrying the people of the fine lit- tle West Florida city of Apalachi- cola just now. They are pleasantly excited for a very different reason. Apalachicola is a classic synonym for oysters in the ears of Floridians and the residents of nearby States, and the annual opening of the oys- ter season, the biggest evert in that city, is scheduled for Sept. 22-3-4. This year the celebration will be on an unusually elaborate scale and during the three days there will be a delightfully varied program for the entertainment of the guests. The Telegram acknowledges the re- Apalachicola chamber of commerce to he present on that occasion and Wi ould be mighty glad to min- ith the crowds in attendance, for free oysters in unlimited supply are promised and there is no ani- 1al. roptile, fruit or vegetable we tter than this noble bivalve. ety cx—— 1.25 ‘entity.

One of cur svalcl exchanges refers to Former Gov- ernor Gilchrist as a nonentity be- cause of his inveterate placidity and good humor. As a matter of fact he is a man of superior ability and strong character and there could be no better evidence of it than the ca- reer he has made for himself in Florida. He isn’t going to be Unit- ed States senator, but that doesn't prove him a weakling and non- and neutral commerce are plain. The United States wil adhere rigorously to them. Entirely iriendly intercouse, as far as circumstances permit, will be its rule and its procedure. Stock exchanges have closed —a wise precaution. This country cannot be the dumping ground of the whole body of, securities that war-mad Europe! is anxious to convert into mon- ey. The closing is temporary.| Elsewhere there is no prospect of interference with the orderly processes of American business. Stable conditions are here. All we have to do it to keep them | stable. The administration has decid- ed to .appeal officially to the public to maintain existing sat- isfactory conditions. The pub- lic cannot fail to respond. The only danger is one which it may create itself. Its course is sim- ple. All it has to do is to sit tight, to do nothing to disrupt the fortunate condition in which this country happily finds it- self. \ Donw't rock the boat—that’s the central idea!

Everybody of the many thousands who have inspected the display have mar- velled at the size and beauty of the fruits, which are preserved inlarge glass jars, and the for- age of tremendous growth and undoubted value. The fruits include grapes, strawberries, pears, peaches, lemons, limes, pineapples, tomatoes, and many others. There is the finest kind of corn, tobacco, sweet po- tatoes, watermelbns, pumpkins, etc. And all of it has been ar- O et AUDITORIUM A L NEXT WEEK y: " o The Highest Priced Act That H as Ever Bee) Quartette Singing, Novelties, Witty (‘eonl:eflg s ‘ o offer ever made inthis city ) Join our South Bend Watch Club } on easy terms at the lowest cas?xngr?::z You have always wanted to own a higl: absolutely depend upon f; N - of your friends— 0oy p?"e 'l'sn your opbp:rtunity. ans have just been completed that permit us to sell hi Bend watches on ©asy payments at the cash rock ;(olt:rlt? l;x?::f'e e SgduthRend” Watch - on $1.00 a week terms We pro, to sell th i Vi i |‘n club;mBy c(imbinfi':s: t\;‘:k;\ue: :;lr;h—you will always be proud to hases of sever: Ve STKiTbe: cf “:tcmp;? :g‘g‘;: :leel: It is guaranteed to give absolute cost Shan the cost to sell one watch. msfimhon by both ourselves and Ry v, o 4 elivered t ou will surely like its tri member upon his making tgeefircs build, Sos i grade watch—a watch vou could a walch that would be the envy The Very Best School Supplies -tha!fiescnbos our new stock tq:da T" VYes, complete is the o —not o_nly text books but every little thing” essential to the up-to-date “tool- kit" of the modern student, including _the dependable, The amount each member will pay by— t(h'n:‘:(’; & iplendid chance slip o S 4 in each r er is made for a limited = l e . et e o [ il never b otees vy ey ime only—come in this evening Fgf.':::afi""i;g B st advantage—Lebanon end of a few weoks e ¢ us give you more complete ! | 5 (Pa.)
