of the fox trot that any step which

believe a man should consider
his wife In all things that he does.
He should not do anything that he
would not like his wife to do.
He should not say anything that
he would not like his wife to say.
He should not go any place that
would not be proper place for
him to take his wife. And the
wife should abide by the above
rules.
The wife should by rights have
half of everything the husband
earns, no matter what, $3.50 or
share and share alike.
II the husband cannot take care
Of what he earns then he should
hand ii all to the wife, as long as

Editor the Times:
In answer to your question,
Should wife receive money or
wages from her husband?"
In the Bible you will find, For
the cause shall man leave his
father and mother and shall
cleave to his wife. and they twain
shall be one flesh. Wherefore
they are no more twain but one
flesh"
This proves the man and woman
are not two people, but the same
as one. What belongs to him be-
longs to her also. She should not
receive wages from her husband,
but she should have access to the
money the same as he.
In the story of Runaway June"
the bride receives money from her
mother for her expenses of the
trip and after losing 1t, will not
take any from her husband. A
woman should not marry unless
she loves her fiance more than
anyone else in the world. II she
would accept money from her
mother she surely ought to take
1t from her husband.

Address F.ba Times
The Ocala evening star., 1915-04-16

The Times-Union, in arguing
against Secretary Garrison's address
on the need for greater army, makes
the following truthful remark:
"Train men to be fighters and they
are always looking for and expecting
a fight. Get enough people into the
fighting spirit and sooner or later
they will find some way to get up a
fight"
The great trouble about the Times
Union and other peace advocates is
that they invariably forget the other
fellow and his disposition to fight. Tt
is very true that Germany armed and
trained and nursed the fighting spirit
until she came to the point that she
virtually forced fight on Europe.
But so far, Germany has suffered less
than her opponents. IF all her adver-
saries had been as well fixed as Ger
many, there would have been no war.
We prefer our own country's safety
and feelings to those of any other.
War is wrong, but we would rather
our men invaded some other country,
burned its homes, killed its men and
outraged its women than that the men
of some other country wreaked those
wrongs on ours. The truth is that
there is middle course, and that is
what Mr.. Garrison suggests. It is
impossible for America to invade Eu-
rope. 1t is possible for Europe to in
wade America. All sany reasonable
man wants is an army strong enough
to protect the peaceable people till
the peaceable people can get into
shape to protect themselves. We
have not that now-not even fair
beginning of such a necessary pre-
caution. And we are going to need it.

CAUGHT WITH THE sklMMINGs

John Martin, colored, was brought
to Ocala yesterday by Deputy u. s.
Marshal Walter Perry from Sutner
county, for trial before Commissioner
D. s. Williams on a charge of illicit
distilling.
After hearing the testimony Com
missioner Williams placed Martin un-
der a 5000 bond for his appearance at
the January term of the u. S. court to
be held in this city.
Martin was arrested by Sheriff
Coleman near Bushnell last Saturday
while in the act of taking off the last
of batch of skimmings at his repair
shop, where he had been operating
for some time. Martin when arrest
ed was asked what he had been doing,
and admitted that he was "jes bilin'
out some skimmins," so the sheriff
locked him up in the Sumter county
jail.

Dispatches from Tallahassee say
that the prohibitionists will make no
further fight for a statewide amend
ment at this session, but will try to
pass bills working for the more
stringent regulation of saloons. The
saloons are regulated about as much
as is necessary now. The trouble is
that in some places-Ocala, for in
.stance-the regulations are observed,
in some others they are not. One rea-
son-perhaps the greatest one-of.
disss tisfaction with local option is,
that some saloon centers render the
laws passed by the majority in dry
counties almost null and void, while
in their own localities they have ev-
erything their own way.

OCALA IS AWAKE
Determined Work Done to Prevent
County Division

The following work has been done
by the Board of Governors of the Ma
rion County Board of Trade, TO fight
the county division bill IN the legis
lature and save the great northwest
ern corner of Marion that the adher-
ents of the bill propose to cut off, and
with a portion of Alachua and Levy
form a new county to be called Blox
ham county.
Post cards have been purchased,
printed and sent out to each register
ed voter in the county. On this card
was a strong protest to our represen-
tatives against this or any other di-
vision of Marion county. The cards
have only to be signd by the persons
receiving them and mailed. With the
post card is a sealed letter with 2
cent stamp affixed, with strong ap-
peal to the voter to sign the card and
get it in the mail at once, as word
had been received that the bill would
probably be before the committee on
next Monday.
Petitions were printed, bound in
manuscript covers and mailed to each
postmaster in the county and some OF
the places in Alachua and Levy known
to be opposing the county division
These petitions protest in no uncer-
tain language against the division OF
the county and are addressed to the
representatives and senators from this
county. A personal request was writ
sons who did not receive cards sigr
the petitions and get them off to oul
representatives as quickly as possible
Big envelopes were enclosed TO mai
them in, addressed to the representa-,
tives and senator, with first class
postage affixed.
The committee has handled the
matter so that the citizens have only
to sign their names and there is nj
effort, not even stamp to be bought
by them. The object was to get all

While the recent raid of German
airship over northwest Britain did no
material damage, and seems to have
been a vast expenditure of gunpow-
der and gasoline for very little re-
suit, the fact that the Zeppelin flew
across such large territory and es-
capped unscathed, must give the Brit
ish very uncomfortable feeling. If
the Germans really have big Zeppe-
lin fleet, they will be certain to at
tack Britain with it as soon as sum-
mer weather arrives. It stands to
reason that if Zeppelins were of great
military value, they would have been
used more extensively against the
armies of the allies, but so far they
seem to have avoided them. An air
raid over England is not likely to
have any effect on the war, but it may
produce great suffering among non
combatants.
