This IS conmendable and all hard

AT THE BAPTIST CHURCH

In very few towns in this or any
other state is the spirit of Christian
fellowship between churches of differ
ent denominations more pronounced
than in Ocala, and that spirit was very
much in evidence last night when every
church in the city closed its doors for
the purpose of attending in a body the
Baptist church, attesting thereby their
appreciation of Rev. /. D. Chapman
both as a man and minister of the gos-
pei, it being his farewell sermon be-
fore leaving TO take up work in Green
vile, S. c.
Mr.. Chapman took for his text the
words of Paul to Timothy when he
said Remember Jesus" During his
short discourse he dwelt but little on
his own personal work or the fact that
this was his farewell to his people, but
urged on all present to take the advice
of Paul and remember Jesus
Rev. w. II. Coleman of the Christian
church took part in the exercises and
at the close of the sermon spoke a few
words of farewell, voicing the senti-
ments of the people at the loss to the
church and the city of Rev. Chapman
and commencing him TO the people
among whom he was about to live.
Rev. ]. 3. Ley, pastor of the Metho-
dist church, also spoke most eloquent
ly along the same line
Mr.. Chapman has endeared himself to
the whole community. During the
seven months of his pastorate there
have been forty-five additions to the
membership, an increase of twenty Ave
per cent per annum, and during that
time he has raised for church lot, con-
vention, missions, etc, about $4,000,
this amount being outside the amount
for current expenses. He has also be-
come personally acquainted with his
people by visiting every member whose
name is on the church books, some of
them. where comfort or consola ton
was needed, he has visited many times,
and his attachment for his people is
so strong that only a plain duty to
himself and family permits him to
sever his connection with the church.

4 NOBLE CITIZEN
(Dunnellon Advocated

Marion county has never been rep
resented in a county office by a citizen
of this part of the county, matter
how able a candidate may have offer
ed himself This fact naturally
brought our people to a pitch where
they agitated county division, as they
had a right to feel that taxation
without representation" was contrary
TO square deal. and being filled with
the patriotic spirit of our forefathers,
the kick for county division followed.
There is scarcely a man in this part
of the county but who feels a feeling
in his heart that Judge William NJ.
Gober should be elected TO the office
of county Judge
Gober is the best qualified of the
two candidates beyond any doubt. He
is able and efficient, and we who
know him as he is not known by
strangers. know that justice without
fear or favor. will emanate from an
administration by him. Though Judge
Gober is a resident and citizen of Ocala,
his friends in this end of the county
know him best and call to the voters
in all parts to lend their best efforts
and show the west end your heart is

officers.

Judge Gober has been the most
maligned man in the present county
ca mpaign. SIanderous lies have been
circulated by those who have no re-

Gober has only mildly refuted these
malicious statements as falsehOods,

A PROPHETIC STORY

The Star will begin in a few days
the publica alton of Morgan Robertson's
story The Wreck of the Titan" 1t is
wonderfully prophetic piece of fiction
written fourteen years ago and then
published in book form, of the wreck
of the Titan, the worlds largest and
most palatial vessel.
The Titan, supposed to be unsinka-
BILE and indestructible, is wrecked by
an iceberg along the northern lane
route of the Atlantic. The wreck oc-
ours in about the same place that the
Titanic disaster occurred, and there
are not sufficient lifeboats and RATS to
take off the wrecked passengers and
the greater part of 1000 souls aboard
the Titan are lost.
There are many other remarkable
and startling condolences between the
wreck of the Titan, the largest steam
ship of the world of fiction, and the
wreck of the Titanic, the largest
steamship of the material world.
This story will attract universal in
terest at this time when the Titanic
disaster is uppermost in the mind of
the entire world.
Aside from it's remarkable prophetic
character. the story has considerable
merit and interest, and will be enjoy
ed by fiction lovers generally.

About two years ago. the physicians
of this city instructed the newspapers
to refrain from mentioning their
names in connection with professional
affafrs-that is. in giving an account
of the sickness, accident or death OF
any person, TO say nothing Of the
physician or physicians in charge of
the case.
These instructions were based on the
principle that physician should not
advertise. and that to mention him in
connection with a case was a form of
advertising The idea was strictly
ethical: and the Star thinks it is almost
too ethical to be practical from
newspaper standpoint.
Nearly all the physicians of Ocala
are men of long residence and estab-
1ished reputation. 1t is very little ad-
vertising to any one of them to say he
is connected with a case, but it is very
Interesting and important news to the
friends Of the patient. particularly If
they live at distance, to know who is
in charge of it.
| The Star respectfully recommends
the Ocala physicians to call in their
| instructions on this point 1t will
promise to confine mention of their
| connection with case to the simple
announcement of their names. 1t
would be glad to give them any free
advertising it could. as it knows they
all do a great deal of work that is un-
| paid for; but it doesn't think on the
one hand that they need it, and on the
other hand it knows it's readers are in
terested from a news standpoint.
As long the Star may not mention
the names of local physicians, it will
not give the names Of the occasional
specialists who come here to perform
difficult operations. 1t is really adver-
Using for them, and besides some of
our Oca1a men have as difficult opera
| tions to their credit any performed
| by the specialists; and if the world is
not to be told about their work, it will
mot be told about the work Of anyone
else, SO far this paper is concerned.

There are some good men running
for the office of congressman at large.
but Claude LEngle is the only one who
has ever sacrificed his private interests
TO any great extent for the public
good. Twice has he almost bankrupt
ed himself rather than abstain from
telling what he believed to be the truth
about public affairs. That he has been
truthful as well as brave proves itself
like a problem in Euclid. If the stories
he has been printing about public mat
