A SCHOOL LETTER TO THE
PEOPLE OF MARION COUNTY
OcaIa Fla. Oct.

Ocala, t1la., Ocf- a., 1914
To the People Interested in Eda-
cation: Our new school year Is
upon US. No greater responsibility
can be assumed than that OF training
and educating the youth of land
AT no time In the history OF Mar
ion county has she put forth the
amount OF energy and money in
school equipment that she has done
and Is doing this year. BY the close
OF this calendar year we shall have
paid for school buildings about
$4,000. We have been as careful
az possible in the selection OF our
teaching force and ask for them the
cordial support OF the patrons and
school public generally.
Owing To the difficulty of the ex-
amdnations, the shortness Of terms
and the uncertainty of tenure in their.
positions and the unpleasantness or
dealing with certain kinds OF crit
teal patrons, there lis a general scar
city OF teachers throughout the state
and It Us a hard matter to fill all of
the places of the county with quail
fed teachers.
We are entering upon bigger
things educatfonal1y than have been
known before. In Ocala we have
just finished probably the most com
plete high school building in the
state and this means that it would be
a good building in any part OF the
United States or anywhere else. We
have a high school faculty that will
compare favorably with that OF any
school in the country We are par
ticularly fortunate in being able to
introduce to the school people of the
county Prof. w H. Cassels as prin-
cipaIl of the Ocala school, or Marion
County High School, as it more
properly is.
II wish to call special attention to
the opening of our county school
dormitory In Oca1a We have con-
verted the old Oca1a high school
building into a comfortable school
home for those of our county adVane-.
ed pupils who may be induced TO
take a real high school course. We
have employed a lady of excellent
qualities and well experienced in this
line, to manage the house and with
the cooperation OF the county and
district authorities and the faculty
of the school, we take pleasure in
urging our people to take advantage
of this opportunity to secure real
high school education ait the very
least possible cost We shall make
for the present the boarding rate
$13 per month and the pupils will be
expected to furnish their own bed
linens, towels. and laundry for their
rooms, and to take care Of their own
rooms under the supervision Of the
matron.
This is done for the purpose Of
putting comfortable and safe board
within the reach of every ambitious
boy or girl who ID reaching out for
real high school education which
viii prepare for life or for a college
career.

county 70 support loyalty their local

there are no illustrations to cut down
the text. Colonel Buckner's article is
a simple, fiat denial of every statement
made by Harper's concerning the du-
Pont Powder Company, and every state
ment is backed up by citation to OH
cial government record.
The article is written without heat
simply, plainly, frankly, effectively. It
does not use the short and ugly word,
but it proves the falsity of Hapgood's
statements.
Hapgod is hopelessly put in the hole,
and this by an article in his own publi-
cation
I know nothing about the particular
conditions of this publication, but as
a general proposition l know that pub
fishers do not publish apologies unless
they know they are in error and unless
a libel suit looms large on the horizon.
In this instance the editor of Harpers
Weekly does not apologize He simply
lifts his coattails and allows himself
to be thoroughly kicked
In all the history Of journalism !
cannot recall an instance Of where a
publisher gives mp his space TO a man
whom he has DETAINED and allows this
man to call him a double, deep-eyed liar
and proves it.
BuclIner Grams an umbrella down
Hapgood's mouth-and raises it. And
the umbrella is the property OF Hap
good.
Hapgood evidently prefers that Col
onel Buckner should prove him liar
in his own publication. rather than that
BuclSner should prove the case in court
with attendant costs and damages fol
lowing, all to be paid for by HarPeT's
Weekly.
This is canny on the part Of Hap
good but If the mau we're the
gentleman he should be, he would
have added a note Of apology on his
own account, acknowledging that he
was in the wrong.
Instead of this, on another page in
ithe same issue. is an editorial item
