Park-Wood Lumber Co. Holdings
To Be Made Into Crossties;
Ball Team Returns Home

(Ed. Note: This is another of
those stories from a copy of The
Port St. Joe News of August 27,
1926, several issues of which were
loaned to us by Postmaster H. A.
-Drake.) '
It is reported that the entire tim-
ber holdings of the Park-Wood
Lumber Co. will be manufactured
into..crossties'. It is the intention
to let this operation to contract on
a basis of the delivery of 2000 ties
per day, which would necessitate
the employment of about 250 men.
Basing the output on 2000 ties
per day would. in case all of the
timber was made into crossties,
take at least foui years to exhaust
it. With the employment of 250(
men on this proposition, it would
mean a weekly payroll of around
$10,000 and would be quite an ad-
dcition to the business life of Port
St. Joe.
St. Joe Wins, Ties and Loses'
The Port St. Joe ball club re-
turned Saturday from Louisville,
Ala., where they. indulged in a
four-gainme series with the Louis-
ville team.
,St. Joe copped the first game 5
to 2 wit-h McKeithenot themo'ulon.
The second game, won by Louis-
ville -2 to 0, was ta pitcher's battle
between Drake and King, each giv-
ing up only one hit.
The last two games were played

Grand Ole Opry Troupe

To Appear At State Fair

Grandstand entertainment at the
Florida State Fair on seven of the
eleven night programs, Febrnary 4
to 15,'will revolve around the zany
caprices of Whitey Ford, the laugA-
provoking Duke of Paduka of radio,
fame and his troupe of entertain-
ers from the Grand Ole Opry.

nessee, will come the rotund Duke
and such nationally famous radio
stars as Wally Ford with his Oak
Ridge Quartet, Annie Lou an d
Danny, the Georgia Clodchoppers,

guitar twangers and vocalists.
Dates set for the WSM Grand
Ole Opry troupe are February 4, 5,
6, 10, 11, 12 and 13. The programs
will be presented from the stage
in front of the grandstand on the

mented by vaudeville, circus, and

MARCH OF DIMES COLLECTION
TO BE TAKEN UP AT THEATER

No regular collections will hbe
taken up at the Port theater this
year during the March of Dimes,
but girls will take u.p a collection
each night from, 6 to 8:30 in the
theater lobby. Be generous.

Called Here By Sister's Illness
'Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Thurman of
Jackson, Miss., are here to be at
the bedside of the latter's sister,
Mrs. C. M. Warner, who recently
underwent an operation at the mu-
nicipal hospital.

Patient At Hospital '
Mrs. John Gilbert is a patient at
the local 'hospital this week.


We Want All the News,

But Let's Co-operate


The editor of The Star appreci-
ates beyond measure the fact
that our readers are continually
turning in news items of church
and club activities, personals,
birthday parties, and so on. In
fact, with our nose to the grind-
stone all the time, if it wasn't
for this interest taken by our
loyal readers The Star would be
sadly lacking in these items that
go to make up a readable paper
more than anything, else.
But we would like those who
send in items to get first names
or initials. Instead of writing
"Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Smith and Mrs.
Johnson," make it "Mrs. George
Jones, Mrs. A. B. Smith and Mrs.
Gladys Johnson." It sure would
be a great help to us. We know
'most everybody's name in town,
but occasionally we get the
wrong initials on the right per-
son, and vice versa. And that
makes someone going some place
or doing something when in re-
ality perhaps they had not gone
any place or were not present at
some shindig where they were
reported to be.
We'll sure appreciate it, and
we (know our readers will give us
this co-operation.

Our Country Right or Wrong


THE SHAME OF FLORIDA
The shame of Florida is its forest lire
record. Almost one-third of Florida's forest
lands are under protection against fires. A
greater proportion of our forest land is un-
protected than in any other southern state.
The effectiveness of fire prevention on our
lands which are protected must be improved.
The last year for which complete figures are
available shows that only one other state had
more fires on protected lands than Florida. We
burned a greater proportion of our protected
lands than any .other state, with the sole ex-
ception of North Dakota, which is scarcely to
be classified as a forested state in the first
place.
Almost alj. criterion, Florida stands at
thC oitujim, or0 i.use to the bottom, o{ all the
states with respect to control of forests fires.
The responsibility for this condition is to be
laid on the doorstep of our citizens as a whole.
Fire prevention agencies, public and private,
have been waging an uphill battle against pub-
lic indifference, .
Thi., indifference is an invitation to disaster.
This indifference is robbing our state of in-
dustries it needs, of jobs it must have. By
"Keeping Florida Green," we invite industries
which-need wood as their raw materials.

LET YOUR DIMES SPEAK
The annual March of Dime-s campaign is
well underway in Gulf county, and the United
States, and will serve as a means of collecting
funds for the purpose of fighting infantile
paralysis.
This cause receives great emphasis in con-

nection with the late President Franklin D.
Roosevelt, a sufferer from the disease, whose
birthday occurs on January 30. Because of
the great popularity of Mr. Roosevelt, the
campaign for funds to fight infantile paralysis
has been an outstanding success in the past.
It should not be overlooked by the people of
Gulf county, however, that there is much yet
'to be done in connection with the fight on
this terrible disease. Research, the care of vic-
tims, and some succor to people afflicted, arc
the prime objectives of the experts who di-
rect the war. Even here in our own county, a
number of victims have been given wonderful
aid, and the cause should be interesting to all
of us. We should not hesitate to make as lib-
eral a contribution as our means will permit
to further the fight which must go on relent-
lesslv. aggressi:vely.

GAS TAX FOR ROADS
County commissioners, in session at Jack-
sonville recently, adopted a resolution advo-
cating a reallocation of the' gasoline tax reve-
nue so that it will go only to road purposes.
This is in line with a general trend throughout
the country, based on the fundamental prin-
ciple that a tax contributed by users of the
roads should be spent on roads.
The commissioners suggested that one cent
of the gasoline tax be allocated to counties for
use in road construction and improvement. At
present the seven cents gasoline tax is divided,
four cents to the state road department,- two
cents to the retirement of county>road bonded
indebtedness, one cent equally divided between
the general fund and an emergency fund for
the schools, to be spent if needed.
The commisnsioners hold that sice this half
cent is not used altogether for schools, and the
general fund does not need its half cent, this
one cent be allotted to the counties entirely ,A
for highway purposes. That makes sound
sense. -Tampa Tribune.

Help prevent forest fires. Be sure that your
match is out before throwing it away. And
don't throw, away burning cigars or cigarets.
