MIR. T. w Trox1er is mournfully
exhibiting a pewter half dollar The
bogus coin is so we'll made that the
only way to tell the difference be-
tween it and perfectly good one is
by its ring. 1T claims to be of the
vintage of 1904. The Star first ad-
vised Mr.. Troxler to put the fake
ruble in the contribution box, but he
said, Get thee behind me- etc.
Then it told him to take lit to the
ball park some Thursday afternoon,
when the people of Ocala are rush
ing the ticket seller, but he put this
proposition far from him also. So,
as Mr.. T. does not approve of match
ing coins, the Star does not know
what he will do with the base half
plunk unless he throws it at the
birds, as so many of us do with our
perfectly good money.

In spite of the self-claimed infaH-
ibility of the Associated Press, the In
ternational News Service, since the
war broke out, continues to make
great gains. 1t has decidedly a ma
jority for dts service among FLORIDA
papers. The Jacksonville Metropolis,
which has become a sure enough
metropolitan paper under its new
management, is using the 1nterna-
tional, and the Tampa Times is TAX
ing it for its fine Sunday morning
issue. Nobody disputes that the
Associated Press is good, but judging
by the service it is giving and the
progress it lis making, the Interna-
tional is better

CARPENTERS AND COOKS
Ladies of North Ocala Deserve Great
Praise for their Labors

Editor Star: The building picnic
in North Ocala was a glowing sue
cess. After paTtaking of one of the
best picnic dinners that could be pre-
pared, the ladies joined the men as
carpenters When say carpenters
/ mean they did actual work on the
building, such as carrying lumber
mailing on shingles. sheetfng and
siding. Here / might mention a few
of the female carpenters who did
work on the church: Mrs. J. ID.
Small, Mrs. D. A. Smith, Mrs w. S.
Mead, Mrs. J. G. Smoak, Misses
Eunice F,elts and Mary Ella Bray,
Mrs W. s. Felts, Mrs. NJ. M. Little
and Mrs. J. w. Felts while they
did good work, it was somewhat
amusing to see them at the work
such as saving.
The writer noticed one lady saw
ing a board with seven other ladies
either sitting on it or holding to II
in order to get to nail 1T on the
building first.
Some of them proved to be good
carpenters as we'll as good cooks
Some of the ladies went home with
hands either mashed or full OF
splinters, but nevertheless all were
in good mood and high spirits, only
sorry that the day was over. AT Sis
all left for their homes, wishing that
there would he another day such as
the one just closed.
/ cannot help but make mention
of the chicken. don't think l ever
ate better in my life, and the writer
experience is not limited in that
line.
l will mention the men carpenters
but they don't deserve much, as they
did most of theirs in talking and
wanting to change the plan of the
church They did very we'll before
dinner, but owing to the large
and other good eatings, they were
not in shape to do very much but
rest in the afternoon. Some who
were present were J. ID. McCaskill
w. S. Mead, w. II. McConn, G. ID
Washburn, w. j. Hogan, ]. E
F'rampton, lR C. Doveridge, j. ID
Small, Moffett, Brigance, Robinson

Disposition of the state convicts is
very large problem which has sud
denly come up. The naval stores
operators, who lease most of the
convicts, in consequence of the war,
are not able to pay for the convicts
and some of the smaller firms prob
ably are not able to feed them. A
member of the legislature informs
the Star that at the last session a
bill was passed that would have en-
abled the convicts to be put to work
on the roads by the various coun-
ties, but as soon as the legislature
adjourned the board of state COM
missioners proceeded to make rules
that the counties couldn't comply
with, and then turned the conyicts
over to the naval stores operators,
who found considerable profit in
convict labor at the time This is
quite a grave charge, and one that
it is up to the commissioners to ex-
plain.

curb. When line of cars is stand
ing in close order alongside a side
walk, it is almost impossible for any
of them except those at the ends of
the line to move out Such car
has no room TO either back out or go
ahead. The doctor suggests that
cars be allowed to stop at curbs on
a slant, and if they did so they
would take up very little more street
room than they do now. Also when
the driver of car was ready to
move, he could get out with ease to
himself and no inconvenience to
others. As the Star often sees the
drivers of autos having a hard time
getting their cars out of close
packed line, it thinks DIR. Hood s
suggestion is one well worth con-
sidering.

1t is the intention of those of our
citizens most interested in band af-
fairs land who, incidentally speak
ing do most of the paying for the
concerts) to ask the police commit
tee of the council to have precau-
fions taken to remove danger of
ladies being run over while cross
ing from the Ocala House to the
court house; also, to induce thought
less autoists from cranking up, blow
ing their horns or joyriding with
cutouts open while the band is play
ing IF auto drivers would stop to
think of it, it is a sign of mighty
poor raising to run a machine toot-
ing or hell-popping thru a crowd
that is trying to hear music. The
police committee has the power to
stop this nuisance, and it will be shy
of backbone if it doesn't use its au-
thority.

UTILIZING ONE OF THE
STATES GREAT ASSETS

Realizing that the peanut is one
of Florida's greatest assets and its
possibilities in a commercial way
are almost boundless, the citizens of
Reddick are organizing a stock COM
pany to manufacture all sorts of
foods from it, Mr.. S. &C. Mayo is at
the head of the proposed factory and
already has nearly enough subscrfb-
ed to go ahead with the enterprise.
A meeting of the citizens of Red
dick and others interested has been
called for Saturday, the 9Th. When
this venture gets under way it will
be in position to use all the peanuts
that can be raised in this section of
Florida, which will prove a great
boon to every farmer, as peanuts
are very prolific crop.

A Star reporter had a pleasant
ride Wednesday with Mr.. B. III. Sey-
mour thru steadily growing North
Ocala. There is lots of desirable
property out there, and people buy
ing and planning new homes all
around. Mr.. Seymour intends to
soon open an SO-foot street across
from Anthony to the Kendrick road.
lit will be regular boulevard, with
row of shade trees on each side.
Mr.. Seymour will give away house
as prize with his present sale of
lots. 1t is a handsome little house
in a fine location. With its new
church and schoolhouse, and many
private residences, North Ocala is
going right ahead.

The czar of Russia has changed
the name Of his capital city from st.
Petersburg to Petrograd. Both mean
practically the same thing, but the
Durg in ST. Petersburg was German,
while grad i'm Petrograd is Slavonic.
We congratulate Nick on his good
sense and advise the people of the
Sunshine City down on the Pinellas
peninsula to follow his example
Petrograd is ever so much more
handy name than st. Petersburg.

SITTING ON THE
DO NOTHING STOOL

Orlando Reporter Star: Railroad
commissioners are elected for four
year terms, and the people might as
we'll make the best of it. The way
to do this is to insist that action be
had on the various matters that are
brought before the commissioners.
They are not altogether to blame for
the failure to correct rate abuses.
be omni-present, but they should
give prompt action when inequali-
ties are brought TO their attention.
Again we refer to the rate on paw
ing brick There is no chance for
the commission not to be aware OF
this gigantic outrage in the form OF
an excessive rate exacted for trans
porting this commodity. Yet nothing
is done. and Florida will within a
few years turn millions of dollars
into the railroad Golfers for this
item alone. If the railroad commits
sion did nothing else but secure an
ad judication of this rate it would be
worth the money which the taxpay-
ers give up for a four-year term OF
the full commission and its retinue
of engineer, attorney, secretary and
stenographers. If liz did nothing but
put the long and short haul act into
effect it would earn its pay, but il
seems to have taken it's seat on the
stool of do nothing, which is mighty
pleasing to the railroads.

Grated pile may the dove of peace

The county school board did very
well Tuesday. selling $4,000 of Citra
school bonds at .95. Considering the
fact that the bond market is fatter
than it has been for a generation
this was mighty good. Bonds of
some big cities and corporations are
going begging now, but it is likely
that those of small towns and school
districts are the safest there can be.

If Vice-President Marshall is cor

1915 as in 1912, democracy's strong

10 support him in 1916 as it was in
1912.
