TO former Congressman Joshua W. Miles the Mary

Revenue is read with pleasure by his many friends I'm
tnls county and elsewhere. Mr. Miles has been an
important factor in the Wilson administration start
ing with the Presidents nomination in Baltimore
There Is every reason why Mr. Miles should have this
nonor conferred upon him. He is a hard-workng

much sought after. His political career so far as

TO TEMPORARY QUARTERS

At a Injecting of the directors of

terday afternoon it was unanimously
voted to move temporarily into the
brick building owned by Mr.. Walter
Ray and built and operated by the
Central National Bank of Ocala,
which institution liquidated several
years ago.
The Commercial Bank will move
into the front of this building, TAX
ing necessary furniture with them.
There is a splendid fire and burglar
proof vault in the building and the
banks steel currency safe will be
placed in this vault This move will
enable the Commercial Bank to have
plenty Of room to handle its bust
ness without budding into one cor
ner of it's own building while the
same is being remodeled. 1t will also
enable the contractors to complete
their W rk at least thirty days earlier
| than they could while working
around and among the banks force
and furniture.
The changing and remodeling Of
| the Commercial Banks offices,
vaults, floors and walls will be SO
complete that it would be very diff
cult to carry on the work with the
bank doing business in the building
at the same time.
Thefbank was very fortunate in Sc
curing such satisfactory temporary
quarters. Mr.. w. w. Condor will
move his Office, temporarily, into ne
