The city affairs OF Ocala are as a
Eute veil attended TO. but there might
- an Improvement in some things.
For instance, hauling gravel and put
ting II on the streets. This Is done by
several small carts, with one man and
one mule to each cart. The gravel Is
hauled out Of the pit near the Catholic
church The carts must go down in
the pit, where they are loaded by the
gravel being shoveIed into them, which
Is slow work. Then, there being only
one mule to each cart. and the ascen,
from the pit quite difficult, the carts
can only carry small quantity at q
time. When a dryer has his cart load
ed, he drives TO the place where the
gravel Is being dumped. digs it out OF
the cart and distributes it on the
street, all tremendously slow. The city
should put a small elevator at the
gravel pit, and buy one or two wagons
constructed for such work. The e1eva-
tor could pull up more gravel out OF
the pit IN two hours than the present
method can take out in day, and one
wagon with one driver and two mules
could carry as much as four carts with
four drivers and four mules car
handle now. The saving in mems
wages and feed for the animals would
soon pay for the expense OF putting In
the new system.

MILO DEYO WILL PLAY
IN OCALA THURSDAY

Arrangements have been completed
by which the above named artist will
appear in recital in connection with
the Ocala Choral Club at the Temple
Theater Thursday, April 18th. Mr.. Deyo
is not a stranger to Ocala music low
ers, and is well known to be one Of the
few pianists of the world. Ocala is
fortunate in securing this artist and
all who possibly can should hear him.
Especial arrangement has been made
by which the Choral Club will give
several choruses from the Rose Maiden
in connection with Mr.. Deyo's recital
on the evening Of April 11th, and on
the the evening OF April 18th Mr.. Deyo
viii give one of the famous mood re-
citals. On this recital. he will intro
duce the hidden moon effect. This eff
feet has been originated by Mr.. Deyo
and is most wonderful in its influence
over the audience.

w. NJ. Toomer of Jacksonville has
withdrawn from the contest in the
second district and entered the con-
gresham at large race. Unless he is
endeavoring to split LEngles vote we
do not know what his object is as he
evidently does not expect to be nomi-
nated.-Leesburg Commercial
The Star would judge by the line OF
conversation handed out by Mr.. Toomer
in his withdrawal of a few weeks, and
his re-entry of a few days, ago. that
somebody or somebodies. considered ii
necessary to project him into the cam
paign to divert few votes from some
body else. Seems to the Star more like
an indication Of panic somewhere than
anything else.

Speculation in mining stocks seems
to have received a recent impetus, and
blocks of gorgeously engraved shares
are being offered to people all thru the
East. Some Ocala people are recip-
tents OF these offers to thrust wealth
upon them, it even being rendered
sometimes in special delivery letters.
II there IS one thing more than an
other that you shouldn't buy unseen 1t
is mining property. Many Of these
gorgeous propositions are based on
nothing more than a shallow hole and
q windlass IN Nevada or some other
western state II you have money to
invest. put 1t in Florida real estate
that you can see before purchasing
and it will never go back on you.

1t is to be feared that the hope of a

have just returned from an extensive
trip through Macedonia and Albania
and have secured irrefutab1e proofs OF
diabolica1 cruelty practiced by Turkish
soldiers upon the unhappy people OF
the two countries. I found condi-
tion of affairs as bad as anything
known under the bloody rule of Abdul
Hamid, Of sinister memory. With a
brief respite OF a few weeks of 1908
when the Committee of Union and
Progress first came into power, the
torturing cruelties of Turkish misrule
which aroused the entire civilized
weird have gone on unchecked"

MARION TEACHERS MEETING

The teachers of Marion county met
at the courthouse Saturday morning.
April s, 1912. in regular session with
quite a number Of Interested visitors
present besides about the usual num-
Der Of teachers. It Is 10 be regretted
that any Of the teachers missed this
meeting. which all considered the most
interesting and profitable one held
this year. Prof. Henry Richards con-
tinued the discussion Of compulsory
education by presenting the difficult
ties TO be met in Florida. He spoke
OF the poverty of some people. and
their ability 10 cIotne and provide
books for their children. and the need
OF the help Of their children in procur-
ing a living; Of the necessity Of main
tanning state reformitory for incor-
rigibiles in case of passage of such
law. He also raised the question
whether the state has power to take
from the parents their absolute control
of their children.
A short discussion followed. in which
Prof. J. J. Beard. who presented the
advantages of the compulsory educa-
ton law at last months meeting,
showed how these difficulties may be
met and how they are met in other
places.
1t was the opinion of those present
that the difficulties in the. way Of
such law in the state Of Florida are
no greater than have been encountered
| in other places; that such a law has
proven to be advanta geous to other
states and other counties and would be
! of the same advantage to our own
| state to have such a law passed. Prof.
| j. H. Workman then gave a fine talk
on needed legislation on teachers ex-
Nominations. 1t is evident to all who
| know about the matter that the ques-
lions used in teachers examinations
| are not fair tests of ones knowledge
or ability to teach. Prof. Workman
/ believes that the cause of this lies in
the fact that the state superintendent
and the members of the state board
of education and often the county
superintendent are not practical school
men who hold certificates themselves.
/ but politicians who know nothing of
school work from experience and who
do not even care much about the sub
! jeet. Prof Workman believes that all
county superintendent should be men
who have had experience as teachers
and who hold state certificates and
that the state board should consist of
/ the pest cOiloS0S anu IldL the super
intendent of education should be a
man of scholarly attachments and
should have personal experience as a
| teacher Prof. Workman's remarks
were heartily endorsed by all present.
Prof. Knock, recently president of a
New Hampshire normal college, then
made a most interesting talk on the
! Friend of Modern Educational
Thought" From beginning to end his
remarks were all most interesting and
those who heard him would have glad
ly listened twice as long. We hope to
have the pleasure to hear him again.
The meeting was then adjourned by
the president to meet in the fall at
the beginning of the next years work.
1t is hoped that a better attendance
may attend them and that meeting
will prove of interest and help to the
teachers

The predicted resignation of Judge
Locke from the federal bench in this
district has caused many specu1ations
as to who will succeed him. If the APP

republican in the state who could fill
the office more ably or be more ac-
ceptabIe to all the people than E. r.
