A TIMELY MOVEMENT

There is a movement on foot and
will materialize before the next term
Of school opens to the effect that
children be not allowed TO study at
night, based on these reasons.
1st. Children are not stronger,
physically, than grown people and
grown people do not work day and
night.
End. The health of a great many
children is permanently injured by
too much night study.
3rd. The eyes of a great many
children are forever ruined by per-
sistent night study.
4th. Many children become so un-
willing to go to school because of the
reason if they fail to carry in lessons
prepared, ready to recite, they are
kept after school or lose recess to pay
the penalty.
9Th. The teachers in public
schools by reason of this false system
have ceased to be teachers and are
merely hearers of lessons.
9th. Six hours per day hard work
under a teacher is enough mental
work for any child and the remainder
of the day should be given to recrea-
ton and development of the physical
body. Patron.

MARroN's CROPS ARE THE BEST

The crops around Ocala are so far
ahead of those around Tallahassee as
to make one glad he lives in this sec
ton instead of the "red clay hills of
Leon" In a 35-mile ride around
Tallahassee there were less growing
crops than one can see today at one
sweep of the eye from any elevation
in the Anthony section. The crops of
the West Florida section are very
backward and in that particular sec
ton, where nearly all of the farm
ing is done by negroes, the crops are
scattering and poor and the cultiva-
ton done in a desultory manner.
There was very little except corn and
cotton; only two small fields of tobac-
co was seen and few small patches
of vegetables for market. Certainly,
Marion county is far ahead in farm
ing, both in truck and staple crops,
and the farms look better and are
better cultivated.

DR.. THOMPSON

Word was received here by friends
last night that DIR. John M. Thomp-
son, one of Oeala's oldest and most
respected citizens, died very sudden
ly about L o'clock yesterday after
noon in Jacksonville. The doctor
with Mrs. Thompson were visiting
their son, DR.. T. C. Thompson, and
were expected home tomorrow. The
funeral will be held in Jacksonville
this afternoon at $3.50 o'clock.
DIR. Thompson came to Ocala from
his home in Newberry, S. c., in 1886,
and for many years practiced medi-
cine here. III health during later
years compelled him to reduce his
practice somewhat. He was about go
years of age, and is survived by his
widow and son, DR.. T. C. Thompson,
who have the sympathy of many
friends.
The doctor was a member of sew
eral organizations of the city, each
of which has sent a floral tribute and
will be represented at the funeral
He was a member of Marion-Dunn
Masonic lodge, Fort King Camp No
IA, Woodmen of the World, Concor-
dia lodge No. 1s1, F. u. of A. and

developed at school would be with
them thru life, that we do not eat or

that to help the next generation they
must develop the moral and intel

they have had greater opportunities
than their fathers and mothers so
have they got greater responsible

MR.. ROCKERS REPORT ON
MATTERS AT TALLAHASSEE

City Attorney Frederick r. Hooker
has returned from Tallahassee. Mr..
Hooker says that he amended the city
charter bill, putting on the property
qualification for bond and franchise
elections, and Messrs. Crosby and
Henderson put it through the House
again Saturday in its amended form.
Our representatives also put through
the House Saturday the bill making
the city paving certificates negotia-
bic. Every. local bill is now ready
for the Senate; all of them, includ-
ing those we do not want, are up to
the Senate.
There will be no opposition to the
administrations city bills in the Sen
ate, that we know of, and Senator
Terrell promised Mr.. Hooker as well
as certain citizens of Ocala, that he
would do all he could to pass the city
administrations bills and to defeat
those introduced by Mr.. Camp, sub
hitting all franchises and bond mat
tiers to a vote of the registered voters
of the city, without reference to
property qualifications.

(MARIE BURNETT)
We all know that many thousands
of years ago, prophets foretold the
end of the world. They Tell us that
we may know neither the day nor the
hour when the end shall come. But
they have given US signs by which
we may tell in a general way the
period of time in which the end of
the world will come if we observe
carefully the tendency of the ages.
Some of US profess to disbelieve
them; but remember, whether you
believe them or not, they come from
an infallible source, so please do not
let me see skeptical smiles on your
faces as l tell you when the world
will end. After endless study of the,
question, I am convinced that the
