tinguish the blaze and begin to pre-
pare the trestle.

WANT SUNDAY TRAIN.

Ocala Star: Quite a number OF
people have suggested to the star
recently the advisability OF the AT
lantic Coast Line adding Sunday
service to the Ocala-Lakeland sched-
ule, which now runs only six days
in the week. II Is a very paying
train, there being considerable
number of passengers in and out OF
Ocala on it every day, and those
familiar with conditions along the
line say it would be better patron
lied on Sunday than any other day.
The Star recommends the Coast
Line officials to look into the mat
ter and see If it will not pay 70
run the train on Sundays.
