OUR TELEPHONE EXCHANGE

Business took us to Manager Phil
lips office. in charge OF the telephone
exchange. yesterday afternoon Since
our last visit last winter We found
great Improvement. The hello girls
are boxed by themselves. The man
ayers office is across the hallway No
admittage to the hello fairies except
by permission. No conversation or
lettering in their room. They are alb
solute queens OF their realm. The
Ocala office is the equal in all the i'm
proved and latest devices in vogue in
small cities and service equal to the
best, though now and then customers
of ordinary Christian graces get "cuss-
ing" mad at the sweet whispering
hello fairies, all because they. don't
understand the conditions, you know,
l. e., accuse the girls Of not respond
ing with alacrity to their calls. For
instance, yesterday a case in point. A
party had urgent messages to deliver.
She tried all morning. She couldn't
get central, but others could get her.
In her vexation and evaporation, she
vowed, femininity fashion, you know,
that the girls just turned her down
for nothing. Now the case was this,
the rain and the wind had crossed the
wires and be 1t remembered that when
wires are crossed and wet it's enough
to lose the soul Of the manager. 1t is
next to impossible to get the exact To-
cation. In this case they spent a day
ere being able to correct the trouble.
Again, a customer should remember
that their phone carries only ten
volts and the main office 120 volts and
when the latter is turned loose, there
Is something doing. while in the case
Of the individual phone, there is moth
ing doing. Again remember the Ocala
office responds to 5000 calls a day.
Those that do the plugging at the
switchboard are Miss Susie Morris,
long distance hello. The day shifts
are Misses Laddie Moore, Minnie Pc
terson, Jettie McConn and Evola
Strong. The night watch is presided
over by Willie Odom. AS you go along
In life take moment to think of the
other side. The Wildwood line is ex-
pected to reach Ocala Friday and con-
meet up with this city. Line to Lake
Weir Saturday night, connecting with
phones at sBelleview, Summerfield and
Lake Weir. 1t will prove a great con-
venience. The Leesburg and Citra
line is a new enterprise, behind which
are Mr.. Williams OF Citra, the Camps
Of Ocala, with Holder, Woodrow and
Chazal of the same city. This line
will take in Woodmar.

The editor of the Star was made
aware yesterday Of the fact that his
birthday had rolled around again by
his better half presenting him with a
very unique and unusual present. It
was nothing short of good strong
street broom, such as is used daily for
the sweeping Of the streets Of the city.
In this case she combined sentiment
with utility-for the broom is to re-
mind the recipient that the leaves
from the shade trees around the house
must be kept off the grass. More work
for the poor old man.

SPEER'S WELL AIMED SHOT
Saved the Life of q Georgia Chill,
From a Mad Dog

From a Mad Dog
Macon, Ga, May 26.-United States
Judge Emory Speer's habit of carrying
a pistol enabled him to save several
children at whom a large dog, affiict-
ed with rabies, was rushing.
Judge Speer was riding his horse
when he heard the screams Of the chill
dren and saw the dog rushing at the
little ones. He spurred his horse into
a run, quickly reaching the children,
and then without dismounting shot
the dog just as the animal was about
to bite a child. The dog was instant
ly killed, the heavy bullet from an au-
tomato pistol tearing through its
head. But for Judge Speer's skill as
a marksman the little one would have
been bitten.

FINE SHOWING MADE FOR THIRD
DISTRICT.

Tile showing made fer the Third
Congressional District by the recently
taken census is highly gratifying. It
is quite Qikely that no other district in
Georgia shows a larger percentage of
increase of population, eighteen per
cent. A jump from 1860 to $4,000
tells the story of the steady develop
ment that has been going cen in this
section, IA development that wild be
more rapid in the next ten years Aaan
it has bsen in the last ten Unless the
district is cut down in the reaper
tionment that must be made to provide
for the two additional congressman
that seem to be assured for Georgia,
the Third district in 1920 will show a
population, I'M all likelihood, of 275-,
900.
All of this section of Georgia is on
the up grade. No one can question
that And the progressive movement
has hardly yet done more than be-
gun. Every year sees it attaining
greater momentum. We all appre-
ciate that this is true of Sumter coun-
ty, and it is likewise true of the ma,
jority of the other counties of the dis
trict and especially of the southern
tier of them. There is every reason
to feel hopeful of the futur of
Southwest Georgia.

JUDGE LAMAR's APPOINTMENT.

IA chorus of approval goes up from
all parts of the state over the selection
of Judge Jcser'a r. Lamar, of Augusta,
to one of the vacant seats on the Sd
preme Court bench of the United
States. 1t is felt that Georgia has
been signally honored In the selection
OF Judge Lamar said that President
Taft could not have made a wiser
choice. Lawyers throughout tie state
attest the strong legal qualifications OF
Judge Lamar for the position, and with
one voice they accord to him the very
highest qua, tiles of character. 1t is a
pleasure to see I'm appointment that
1lwakens no carping criticism. TIE
commentator from all sources OF
Judge Lamar speaks volumes as to
the wisdom displayed by President
Taft. This and his other judicial APP
Pointments appear to be thoroughly in
keeping with lis declaration th.f in
nk king such selections he would be
governed by but one Thought, the main
tenance of the courts ON tie very
highest pedestal of character ana
ability. He has unquestionably re-
demmed his pledge.

CONGRATULATIONS TO AUGUSTA.

This merry holiday season the cup

has turned down it's own official fig
ares, accepted the local census Of Au-
gusta, and re established it IN its cid
place as the thfrd city of Georgia, dis
placing Macon whose first census re-
ports put 1t above Augusta Then
comes the appointment of one of lis
mest thcnored citizens, Judge Lamar,
as an associate justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States. And nov
comes a discerning outsider and sug-
gests that while things are coming its
way Augusta should put i'm a bid for

WILL STICK TO PASTOR
In SPITE OF DIVORCE
Rev. Bailey Still Remains in
Good Standing.


Atlanta, Ca, December 12.-The
novel sight of a Methodist pastor
whose wife is suing for divorce, and
to whom the court has ordered MIN 10
pay alimony and yet who is occupy
ing the pulpit and is in good standing
with the church, is that occupied by
Rev J. H. Bailey. pastor of the Lin
dale Methodist church i'm the Rome
district of the North Georgia confer
enee.
Various allegations of cruelty are
made in Mrs. Baileys petition, ami
their 10-year-old son takes the side
of the mother.
The suit for divorce has not yet
been tried and the case has only been
gone into to a sufficient extent to en-
able the court to pass upon claim for
alimOny, whic hwas awarded at $40
per months on temporary basis.
Nevertheless the suit was on file
with allegations of mistreatment when
the North Georgia conference met at
Athens. And yet when the name of
the Rev. ]. H. Bailey was called in
conference under the question rela-
tive to the characters of its members,
Presiding Elder John s. Jenkins, CT

swered: Nothing against him"

THE RIGHT SORT OF JAILER.

The jailer over at Columbus set a
much needed example to other jaifars
throughout Georgia. When the mob
clamored for hood, they got it, but i.
was their own blood. "A few shots and
TIE mob melted away. The average
NIB isn't made up of heroes by any
means. It depends on it's numbers
and the general feeling that the offic-
ials are not going to protect a prison

it runs up against a man of a sterner
type. one who really believes taat his
oath of office meant something, it IS
pretty apt to abandon its plans ard
