\ FOOLISH MEDICAL CENSOR
SHIP

The County Medical Society has
now gone on record as against the
publication of pathological or other
professional matters in the LAY
press" by doctors, either directly or
in inspired articles. 1t deplores
the "self-laudation' Of such methods
and condemns the unfortunate prom
inence" given to physicians whose
names and pictures appear in connec-
ton with newspaper accounts of new
forms OF treatment in which their
personal success is exploited" Doc
tors who receive such advertising are
informed that they lower the tone
of the profession and they are ad-
monished to conform more strictly to
the well known principles of pro
fessional ethics"
That is to say, doctors who have
made discoveries or devised new
methods of treatment which are of
Importance to the public must re-
strict the knowledge of them to 9TH
er doctors and to the few lay readers
OF medical journals. Is the practice
of medicine at this day an occult art
about which nobody must know any
thing but the initiate? What faint is
there in publicity that can affect a
doctors reputation? If a medical the
DRY is sound, public knowledge can
not harm it, and if it is unsound the
best way to discover the fact is
through free discussion
1t would be interesting to know
how much of this antagonism to pro.
fessional advertising comes from
doctors who have no discoveries of
their own to make public, and how
much lis inspired by jealousy, stupid.
ity and incompetence Certainly the
best way to educate the public in
health matters is by giving the ut
most publicity to medical discovery,
while that is likewise the best safe
guard against quackery. If individ-
ual doctors acquire some credit from
the process, must the fact damn
them World

RESENTED N AALL oF FAME'

Florida is soon to be represented in
the statuary hall of fame in the CAPT.
toll building in the city of Washington
by a statue of Dr. John Gorrie, for
mer citizen of Apalachicola.
In modelling his statue the sculptor
had nothing to work from but an old
fashioned daguerreotype. and he was
conscious of the fact that his work
must perforce be a most difficult one.
In modern nomenclature he was up
against it,
Fortunately one day he espied a
gentleman who bore a striking re-
semblance to the daguerreotype. This
gentleman proved to be Mr.. John A.
Jennings of Richland county, South
Carolina Upon a more intimate ac-
quaintance, Mr.. Pillars, the sculptor,
discovered that Mr.. Jennings was the
exact size, weight and build of the
late Dr. Gorrie The looks, contour
and lines of his face harmonized with
those of the daguerreotype in every
particular. The sculptor, upon much
persuasion and insistence, got Mr.
Jennings to consent to sit as a model
for the late DR.. Gorrie. One of the
objections Mr.. Jennings interposed
was the following:
For one thing" he said, che stood
in some fear of the time when his
ghost might meet that of the great in
ventor." Then" he exclaimed, sup
pose that Dr. Gorrie should think that
was impertinent in posing for his
statue! Perhaps he wouldn't think l
looked like him, after all"
But all objections were overruled.
I'D although an exceedingly modest
man Mr.. Jennings was persuaded to
pose for the model. and the statue is
really his that will soon be unveiled
| in Washington, although it will bear
the inscription of Dr. Gorrie's name.
Mr. Jennings is 46 years of age. is
the son Of Mr.. r. H. Jennings, for FIVE
times state treasurer of South Caro-
lima.
Well, what connection has Marion
county with the foregoing?
Mr. Jennings is a brother of Mrs
S. L. Fridy and Mrs. E. D. Rou of
Reddick. They are the wives of two
of the finest and most substantial
business men of that section, and
Mrs. Fridy and Mrs. Rou are two OF
, the most estimable women of our
whole county
They will be delightfully."- interest

monies.

ANpERsoN-coLEMAN WEDDING

Special Cor. Ocala Banner:
Last Tuesday night quite little
romance occurred in the Paisley
neighborhood, which was very much
of surprise to everybody. Mr.. Nor
ris Anderson of Williston and Miss
Lizzie Coleman of Fort White, were
united in the holy bonds of matri-
mony. Miss Coleman had once visit
ed the home of her cousin, Miss Car
yer, and so completely won the heart
of Mr. Anderson that on her second
visit he soon won her for his own.
The bride and groom are quite
youthful, he being II and she 16.
The community was no more shock
ed than were the parents of the
groom and father of the bride.
Mrs Anderson is very lovely girl
a decided blonde, and the groom is
one of the most promising young
men of Williston, being son of one
of our most progressive farmers. We
wish for them life of unclouded hap
piness, and congratulate Mr.. Ander.
son on winning such a beautiful and
highly accomplished bride.

THE WAY TO BRING PEACE TO
MEXICO

The New York Sun says that there
seems to be one clear way of ending
the present trouble in Mexico 1t
would be costly. but infinitely less
costly than Intervention and wholly
humane. The idea is suggested by the
eagerness with which the inhabitants
of Ojinaga have taken advantage of
the hospitality accorded to refugees
by this country and have crossed the
Rio Grande in their thousands for the
sake of a square meal at the expense
of Uncle Sam. All that is required is
an extention of this plan. On the
United States side of the Mexican
border erect huge out of door kitchens
prepared to cook New England boil
ed dinner on a gigantic scale. Then
wait for a favoring breeze and start
up the fires. The delicate aroma of
the cooking waited over the border
to the nostrels of the starving com
batants will prove irresistible. They
will abandon their blood lust, rush
for the Rio Grande and unite in a
love feast as the guest OF Uncle Sam.
This pacific nostrum is offered gratis
to the consideration of the Secretary
of State, with the added suggestion
that Mr.. Andrew Carnegie be prevail
ed upon to finance the boiled dinner

An item sent out from Orlando
says: The banana peel is fresh in the
mind of Mr.. S. J. Sigh and especial
ly that particular one on which he set
his heel in Jacksonville some two
weeks ago while coming out of the
Board of Trade building, and fell to
the walk, breaking his right leg.
Since that time he has lain in the
hospital, with the broken member en-
cased in plaster of paris, and suffer
ing no little amount of pain He is
again able to hobble about, but says
that the bandage cannot be removed
for about two weeks yet. And all be-
cause some unthoughtful person
threw the peel upon the sidewalk in
stead Of into the trash bin.

GOLF NOTES

On the notice board of a Liverpool

pears the following verses typewrit-
ten on the club note paper:
Swat the ball and walk a mile.
Swat the ball. It's worth your while.
Walk mile and swat the ball.
Walk some more. Nor is that all.
Swat the ball and wall, what theag
Swat the ball and walk again.
After that you walk and-what?
Once again the ball you swat.
Swat the ball and walk still more.
Keep on swatting as before.
When as far as this you've got,
Swat and walk, then walk and swat.

do it.
Commissioners Resolution
To the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, Washington, D. c.:
The Board of commissioners of
Marion county in session today re-
solved to enter its strongest protest
against the application of the new
express vegetable tariff. 1t will put
the majority of our producers and
shippers out of business. We urge a
continuation of the old rates. The
damage to Florida will be fearful

The following resolutions were

Whereas, We are advised that on
Feb. 1st, 1914, the Southern Ex-
press Company has put into effect a
tariff on vegetables that is so excess
sive that it will be prohibitive; and.
Whereas, Such action on the part
of q common carrier is not in har-

said rates show conclusively that the

Whereas, We believe this question

Commission should handle at once in
the interest of the people, as it APP

Is Golf a Pudding Gamer

If it ever takes place, one OF the
country clubs adjacent to Philadei-
phia will be the scene of novel con-
test which has been talked about. A
man who knows baseball, but never
played golf. was talking to profess
sional golfer, and remarked that the
latter's pet game was at best only a,
piddling sort of affair.
Well" said the golfer. "I'll wager
You that l can play around this IS
hole course in fewer strokes than you
con throw the ball, and you needn't
bother to put it in the cups. bat
throw as far as you can every time"
Instantly the bet was made. and
then the baseball enthusiast began to
figure. The golfer could do the
course in seventy-two strokes. To
equal that the other would have 20
make seventy-two throws of an aver
age length of two hundred and fifty
feet, the course being six thousand
yards. For an ordinary man this
would be an impossible task To
throw a golf ball two hundred and If
ty feet once might be done, but Il
would require an arm like Chief Ben
der's to do it seventy-two times in
uccession.-Philadelph Ledger.
AT the Ocala Country Club yester-
day afternoon the ladies held a handi-
cap flag tournament. the trophy for
the game being a golf club, presented
