tho gymna STUN classes: and for girls
who cannot afford the merely nominal
gymnasium fee. there arc free classes
under a competent director.
The association further pursucs it's

most needs by doing everything in its
power to increase the efficiency OF the

MOTHERS MEETING

The ". c.. T. u. held a mothers
meeting and silver tea at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. w. T. Gary Tuesday aft
ernoon. It"was delightful and help
fuI gathering of more than fifty wom-
en- besides several children. Refresh
ments were served and all enjoyed the
hot tea and coffee, sandwiches and
cream puffs. A silver offering was
given by the guests to help on the
temperance work in our county.
Then followed the mothers meeting,
which was in charge of Mrs. w. H.
Coleman. She had arranged an ex-
cellent program which was carried out
as follows:- + /.
Song, "When He Cometh.' NJ
Prayer by Mrs. E. Van Hood, which
was a plea for better mothers and
those who do not understand the sac
\redness of their trust, in the care of
children.
Address of welcome by Mrs. T. E.
Bridges.
~ Recitation, Mothers of Men," by
Joaquin Miller and recited by Mrs. B.
H. Seymour.

house." by Mrs. E. P. Cowdrick.
Solo, Anchored" by Mrs. Fred
<Weihe.
Then discussion on the proper
amusements in the home for children
of different ages, which was led by
Mrs. c. J. Barnett. Helpful ideas were
exchanged and yet there were some
knotty problems left unsolved.
Miss Emma Washburn read ex-
tracts from a pamphlet entitled "Save
the Babies, after which she distribut-
ed the leaflets to each one present.
Some teachers present told of the
low standing of pupils who smoke
cigarettes, that they never can keep
up where they should be in their
classes and that other young people
who have become moving picture
iends are always below the standard.
This takes their precious time and
nerve energy.
Mrs. Gary had her table beautifully
decorated with bright flowers and al
together this crowd of ladies enjoyed
an unusually pleasant and profitable
afternoon.

ARE YOU IN FAVOR
OF THIS AMENDMENT?

Editor Star: The city council has
published notice in the newspapers,
that application will be made to the
next legislature to change the exist
ing law so as to allow the city of
Ocala to enter into contracts with it's
own officers.
Here is the proposition as set forth
in the notice: ''To empower said
city to make and enter into contracts
with any of it's own officers until such
time as the census of population of
said city shall show it to contain
more than 10000 inhabitants"
Here is the law now in force on the
subject: "Section 1863 General Stat
utes: 1t shall be unlawful for any
commissioned or other officer of this
state, or for any officer elected or
otherwise of any county or incorporat-
ed town or city therein, to bid or en-
ter into or be IN any way interested
in a contract for the working of any
public road or street, or construction
or building of any bridge or erecting
or building of any house, or for the
performance of any other public work
in which said officer was a party to
the letting, and any person upon con-
viction thereof shall be punished by
fine not exceeding $500 or imprison-
ment not exceeding one year"
Section 347O General Statutes:
No state or county board or municipal
board, or council, shall purchase sup
plies, goods or materials for public
nse, from any firm or corporation in
which any member of such board is
lirectly or Indirectly interested, nor
hall any such board pay for such sup
7lies, goods or materials so purchased
my person violating the provisions
f this section shall be punished by
fne not exceeding $500 or imprison-
nent not exceeding one year; pro
7ided, that any member Of any board
7fOresaid, who shall have recorded
his vote against such illegal pur-
hase, or who shall have been absent
at the taking Of the vote thereon,
The Ocala evening star., 1915-02-10

shall be convicted of violation of
this section"
Please observe that it is not pro-
posed to change merely the law in re-
gard to the buying of supplies for
hidden under section 3470, but the in
tention is to exempt the city of Ocala
from the provisions of section 3468,
and to allow any of the officers to
make any kind of contracts, for public
work or otherwise, with the city.
Let me put to your readers these
questions: Who wants or who has
asked for this amendment? How does
the city council know that it is ap-
proved by the citizens? Why should
Ocala be exempt from the operation of
a general law of the state, wholesome
in character and designed to prevent
graft and corruption in public affairs?
Is there any significance in applying
for such change now, when the city
is about to enter into important con-
tracts, involving the expenditure of
large amounts of money, the proceeds
of bonds recently authorized? Are
you as citizen in favor of an amend
ment by which it is made possible for
the councilmen and other officers to
let contracts to themselves? Do you
not think that before proposing these
and other important changes in our
charter, the voters should be allowed
to express approval of such changes?
Yours truly,
r. L. Anderson.

All the Effectiveness, Not the Effect of CalOme!

Liv-N er-LaX is one of the most important medical discover ies of recent years. For a long time medical experts, realizing the harmful effects of calomel, have been striving to find a liV- CT cleanser that would be just as effective as calomel, and yet be absolutely harmless in it's action. Recently this remedy was ac- tually put forth by L. K. Grigsby in his Liv-Ver-LaX.
 Liv-N Ner-LaX is a harmless veg etable compound, designed sole " for the treatment of liver com plaints. The immediate favor it has met with in thousands of homes is proof positive of it's real value.
 If you feel worn out, tongue coated, and skin salloW, don't de- lay until it becomes dangerous, nip the trouble in the bud with Liv-N er-LaX. Insist on the gen. uine, bearing the signature and likeness of L. K. Grigsby, which is guaranteed to give satisfac- tion or money refunded. For sale by Hesterly Drug Store.
