The Star hopes that one Of the
things the city government will do
this year will be to make the rail-
streets their tracks run over in the
city. Ocala has the worst railroad
crossings of any city in the state
There is no need for it; there is law
to make the roads put and keep the
crossings in order if the council has
backbone to apply it. Gainesville
has done so-Ocala can do likewise.

Will Sina His Swan Sono,

Cambridge North Star: It will be a.
case Of one too many trips for Pitcher
Eberhart If the independent republi-
cans can get the opposition candidates
to substitute sense for personal ambi-
ton. And, judging from the temper
of the delegates to the Minneapolis
convention last week, 1t will be made
quite disagreeable for the anti Eber-
hart candidates to insist upon dividing
the field and thereby perpetuating the
machine in power.
What answer can any of the candi-
dates for governor give the committee
If asked whether or not they approve
of the plan and also If they will sub
NIT their claims to the convention,
! providing the convention is not
stacked, and that the people have a
fair chance to participate in the pri-
maries and conventions which will Sc
lect the delegates to the state conven-
ton?
For either Iverson, Peterson, Lee or
Elwell to refuse to cooperate in the
work of elimination would certainly be
suicidal.
The North Star predicts that all the
anti-administration candidates will
agree to submit to the will of the CON
vention, n that the issue will be
thereby narrowed down to a fight be-
tween the people and the politicians.
When such a. contest is Waged, only
one result a occur-the governor
will be sent singing back to Mankato.

within every American mill and

process of evolution which is produc-
ing amazing results in a higher and
yet higher effectiveness. I have with
me a report made by an engineer Of
an American shop to the statesmen Of
the company with which he Is allied
showing the improvements in their
methods Of manufacture in the last
six months of 1918. The works had
doing well in a competitive business,
but the new spirit OF efficiency had
gotten into them and the results
were amazing. Accuracy took the
place OF Ignorance; precision displac-
ed the rule Of thumb This process
improved itself to where tWenty-eight
times more work vas done than be-
fore.
Il am thankful to say, there has
come also another and a greater fac
tor thar any mere mechanical
thing. This is the growing apprecia-
ton Of the value of men and women in
industry. This is the wisdom which
teaches us that the human side Of our
factories is more valuable than the
mechanical or the material side. This
new light shows to us clearly that in
the responsiveness of human beings to
leadership lies an opportunity for pro-
duction at low cost, with comfort to
the worker and increased income also,
which will lead US to industrial vic
tories greater than any we have ever
achieved.
THE improvement Of our methods
and the higher valuation put upon the
great human factor in our work have
already begun to show in the increase
in Il competing power abroad as
well as in great advances at home.

Thus the milling industry will in

young men shall be enabled to learn
all that is now known of it's technic

to deal scientifically with the new

need similar. endowments, and in time
will receive them. '... .- "a
The visible and tangible defect in
our present educational system is that
it sends too many young people out
into. the world with a mental equip
