The Tampa Yacht Country club closed one of the most successful its history last night with the election of officers for pi the coming year. J. G. Barkley was named to succeed Guy Nickerson, who has served for the year just closed. Mr.

Nickerson wag voted the thanks of the club for the manner in which he had conducted its business during his administration. He made a number of recommendations which will be of great interest to members if carried out. Among other things' the retiring recommended that the east wall of the dining room be torn away replaced with glass. Such would give a great deal more light and serve as an added attraction. Instillation of a pair of bowling alleys was another recommendation that met with a great deal of favor.

Chief among the recommendations by Mr. Nickerson was the suggestion that the club enter into water game with a vengeance. He called attention to the advantages of water sport and the benefit St. Petersburg derived from the use of her water a front. Mr.

Nickerson suggested the club supply more boats and extend dock facilities to the extent that the Tampa Yacht and Country club would deserve the to forepart of its name and offer attractions to those who enjoy water sports. Mr. Nickerson's suggestion may result in considerable dredging in vicinity of the club to carry out plan which the is expected to eventually result in a yacht basin of considerable size. H. T.

Lykes was re-elected vicepresident; J. F. Weisinger, secretary; Penn Talliferro III was named treasurer to succeed R. J. Binnicker, who refused to accept the place again.

Daily Times Want Ads. Bring Results. 'SHOW ME' FOLKS CAPTURE ROTES HOLD FORTH IN STYLE AT WEEKLY LUNCHEON. Program Was Highly Exhilarating, Particularly When Jesse James Comes from Grave. Missouri--home of mules and men, of bandits and big business, of hogs and homes, of apples and alfalfa and of plug tobacco and plug statesmen -was duly aposthesized by the Missouri members of the Rotary club this noon in the regular weekly luncheon held at the Tampa Bay hotel.

Many of Missouri's best were there, loaded to the brim with statistics about their former state, though not one of them would give a winter in Fiorida tor a thousand springs in Missouri. Not satisfied with the facts and near facts presented, a gentleman who looked much like that well known Missourian, Jesse James, of sainted memory, appeared related a few that didn't sound so good for the state in spite of the opposttion of the Missourians. "Show Me' Anthem. C. D.

Cooley was chairman of the meeting and Dr. L. A. Bize turned the gavel over to him soon after the meeting was called. Several persons with mule heads appeared representing the committee.

From time to time they burst into the national anthem of Missouri, which is as follows: Oh! the Mule stood around With his foot on the ground. The Mule stood around With his foot on the ground. Oh The Mule stood around With his foot on the ground. HEE! HAW! HEE! HAW! MISSOURI! A Tearful Story. Frank Jackson started out to tell of the advantages of his native state but not his stand tears to think overcame of him; the he dear old could state and broke down, J.

N. Bryan filling out his talk. He told more things about the old state than most of his hearers ever knew before and certainly made out a good case. In his talk on "Missouri," Mr. Jackson summed up the greatest features of the state, saying in part, as follows: Leads in Chickens and Mules.

"The state ranks first in the union in the production of poultry and eggs. There are more than 40.000,000 hens of the feathered variety. within the state, and truly some chickens of the other variety. The commercial value of the poultry and egg production of the state for 1916, according to a most reliable estimate, reached the astounding total of nearly one hundred millions of dollars. There were enough, eggs produced in Missouri last year to supply, every man, womand child in union nearly two dozen each.

You will agree this is something to crow over. "In number and quality of mules Missouri stands at the head, the only safe place. A story is told of one Missourian who stood behind the feet of a Missouri mule once plucking a goose. When the mule's artillery went into action, the man and the goose landed on top of a very high haystack nearby. However, as a the man had the goose with him it was very easy for him to get down, and by the way, the down plucked from the fowls of Missouri last year aggregated nearly 1,000,000 pounds with a cash value considerably more than $500,000.

Returning to the subject of mules, there are enough horses and mules in the state of Missouri, so that should every man, woman and child in Florida desire to ride bareback, double like the circus riders, there would be enough SO that they' could all ride at the same time, and when all were mounted there would still be a large number of mounts without riders. Enough Cows for All Morida. Then, telling of its excellent birth rate and low death rate, of the production of apples and the total value of the farm crop of the state of half a. billion dollars; of corn, with one county producing almost as much as all Florida and the state producing only one-fifth less than Argentine; of the corn cobs, or "Missouri meerschaums," manufactured last year to a total. of 28,000,000, leading the world; of the wheat crop, over 000.000 bushels; of the dairy herds, with enough cows to provide for every man, woman and child in Florida, A were they all turned milk maids and wanted to milk at once.

Peaches, with 1,000 carloads annually, watermelons by the trainloads, strawberries, all grow in abundance, the ex-Missourian said; good roads--Missouri is building more roads than any other state in the west; swamp reclamation and drainage, water power development, hydroelectric projects, all abreast of the times. The mineral wealth, the tobacco growing possibilities, with plug tobacco aggregating $35,000,000 and $40,000,000 annually and more than 65,000,000 cigars per year, the hay and forage crops, and "a climate that has enough sunshine for sentiment and snow enough for courage." James N. Bryan spoke St. Louis and Kansas City, telling of its romantic history, of its commercial importance, leading the world in many things and in America in other features, and Kansas City, with its many achievements. Dr.

Berry then gave a few facts about the schools of the state, showing that more than $19,000.000 are invested in educational enterprises in the state, which is among the leaders of the country. Dr. Berry gave the names of some of the famous Missourians, telling how the state led in politics, business and statecraft. Jesse James Appears. As he sat down there were calls of "What about Jesse James?" a celebrity whom the doctor had omitted to mention.

Jesse appeared. At was not the "malig-' nant marty?" then we might well have stood for the wax figgers of the bandit we used 10 see and shudder at in the dime museums. He told a few things about the state that Jackson, Bryan and Dr. Berry had forgotten or suppressed. George Broadhurst is an expert when it comes to disguising a fact in other language.

Float for Carnival. This finished the Missouri program which was voted by all among the best of the state lunches. Dr. Bize brought up the matter of a float for the carnival parades and it was voted to spend $200 with .1. F.

Gastoff for Rotary A letter from Hamilton Horsey, captain of Co. was read thanking the Rotary club for its Christmas gifts. Dr. Bize announced the death of William Chase Temple and the fact that his funeral would be held at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, paying a short tribute to the man who did so much for Tampa. Mr.

Dibble of the Dubuque, Rotary club told few things about the city he hails from, saying that it is one of the great Catholic centers of learning of the middle west. Guests Introduced. Guests were introduced as follows: Keefe. A. N.

Peter O. Knight will appear before the city council tonight and tell his side of the matter that was brought up in the transcript of the testimony, given by J. Henry in the remove Walter Wood as -receiver of the R. D. Wood in Philadelphia several weeks ago, in which Mr.

Henry testified Mr. Knight told him a deal for the Tampa Waterworks Co. could be put through for $3,000. The $3,000 was for an extension of franchise, which a part was to go to Mr. Knight and the rest used to "grease" the councilmen, according to the testimony.
