TEN NEAR EXHIBITS
MOULD BE BETTER

William Gist of Mcintosh, one of
Marion's leading farmers, and a
director of the Marion Fair Associa-
ton, who was in Ocala Tuesday,
made a timely little spiel to the Star
about the exhibits necessary to OBJ
tain prizes in the corn-selecting con-
test.
The association offers prizes to
farmers and farmers boys who make
exhibits of not less than two dozen
ears of corn. Mr.. Gist says, and the
Star agrees with him, that ten ears
of corn is not only enough, but best
for such an exhibit. His opinion on
this subject is in line with the prac-
tice of the agricultural department.
The Star recommends the directors
to change the exhibits from twenty
four ears to ten. It's true that an
nouncement of the larger number has
been made in the catalogue But the
Ocala papers will give notice of the
change, and there is hardly a farmer
in the county who doesn't read one of
them.

sEABOARD EXCURSIONS

On next Saturday the Seaboard
Air Line will run an excursion to
Fernandina, Pablo Beach and Atlantic
Beach, and the exceptionally attrac-
tive rates from Ocala to all three
points will no doubt be taken advan-
tage of by many of our people to
visit the seashore for a few days. The
rate from Ocala is only $1.50 for the
round trip, and tickets are good for
return on all regular trains the fol-
lowing Tuesday.
On Monday they will sell round
trip tickets with a three-day return
limit for Jacksonville, at $1.50. The
special features of this trip will be
the big labor day doings at Pablo
Beach, and Mr.. John Boisseau, the
local ticket agent, is anticipating a
big crowd from Ocala.

has recovered sufficiently to start
work in an ammunition factory. Mord

Butler, are engaged in Red Cross
work in the trenches and while not
actually on the firing line have writ

encountered by the men doing the
fighting.
Mrs. Buffers youngest brother,
Albert Robson, is a marine on one of
the vessels of the English fleet trying
to force the Dardanelles and at last
accounts was uninjured. The letter to
Mrs. Butler from her sister states:
"Lots of things have happened since
you were here, but l think the most
terrible thing that has come to the
world is this awful war. The last 13
months have been a terrible time for
father and mother. We get letter
from one of the lads most every day,
and Mord, if he lives, will go over to
see you. He is still full of life and
fun in spite of his experience at the
front"

shire, England, Mrs. Butler knows
many families who are represented
in the British regiments fighting
against the Germans. She has NAM

STRIKING AT THE FEE SYSTEM

The Star has received the following
Letter from Mr.. F. A. Wood of st. Pc
tersburg, who will be candidate for
governor in the primary next year:
Editor Star: AS a business man,
resident and taxpayer of the state of
Florida for the past fifteen years 1
have become very much interested in
the abolition of our present fee sys-
tenn as compensation for our county
officials.
ida as a whole agree with me that
our county officers should be placed
upon a salary basis. The question is
how to best accomplish this.
Having been a member of the last
Legislature where the passage of laws
is more or less a matter of compro-
mise among the members and where
so many interests are presented and
lobbied for or against, l have come to
the firm conclusion that it would be
almost impossible to get a piece of
legislation as far reaching as this
would be, enacted at any general ses-
sion of the legislature.
If something be not done between
now and the general election of No
vember, 1916, these county officials
will be elected again for four years,
thus delaying the enactment of any
law that will give us relief.
II HoC 70
undertake the task of travelling over
the state and laying this matter be-
fore the people of every community,
asking them to sign petitions such as
the enclosed, requesting the governor
to call an extra session for the pur-
pose of passing such legislation as
will put these officials upon a salary
basis.
Assuming that you as a citizen are
interested in helping to put our state
on a business basis l would appre-
ciate an expression of your opinion
as to the plan outlined.
Awaiting with interest your reply
l am Very respectfully,
F. A. Wood.
The letter is accompanied by a pc
tition, asking the governor to call an
extra session of the legislature not
later than the last week of April
1916, for the purpose of enacting such
laws as are necessary to place all
county officials on salary basis.
It's the Stars opinion that the fee
system should be abolished and judg-
ing by what it sees in the press the
leading newspapers and most promi-
nent men all over the state are of the
same opinion. The full iniquities OF
the fee system were found out and
abolished in England many years ago
America inherited it from England
and it had more excuse in thinly set
tied counties and states, where it was
practically impossible to pay officers
salaries. Most of our larger and
more progressive states have partly
or entirely abolished the system, and
it is time Florida was following their
example.

"a Mind In the Past"

ANN DULL, aching resentment burn

IN mother as with a voice hoarse
TO her own ears she called to
summon Blair To make his part of the
bargain with the implacable visitor,
who waited for them in the somber
living room upstairs, with the photo
graphs of the guilty thumb prints of
Blair.
No answer was returned to her call
and Mrs. Stanley remembered again
the bitter quarrel she had had with
Blair over Vivian Marston.
With n bitter sigh the realization
came TO her again that all the stern,
persisting ambitions that had embit-
tered her Iife-the desire for the earl
dom and the great diamond for her
most unworthy son-were not worth the
heartache and tragedy that had dark
ened her life.
1t was with a fierce resolve, in a
sudden revulsion of desperation and
despair, that Mrs. Stanley returned to
the living room to tell her strange Wis
itor, Hagar. to do her worst, let the
consequences be what they might.
For herself the austere Mrs. Stanley
resolved to strive no more for the sake
of her dissOlute and desperate son.
Il will make no bargain with this
woman even to save Blair from the
gaIIows,' was her grim thought. ''Nei-
ther she nor the strange girl who was
DIR. Lees ward and whom she now
mothers at Stanley hall shall have so
cial countenance from me-"
But as she aScended the stairs TO
make known her resolve she heard the
slam of door and the sound Of hur-
rying feet from the living room to the
chambers at the back of the house.
She opened the door from the stair
landing 10 the living room. The cen
ter table was overturned. and there
were other signs Of a struggle, but the
room was empty.
