would have said if one of those wick
e6 Catholics had arisen and reminded
him that the great majority of the
high school girls were the daughters
of Protestant families. We admit
that high school girls are taught a
whole lot of stuff that is of little or
no use to them, but all we know
seem to be as well on the way to
make as good American women as
their mothers and grandmothers be-
fore them. It's as natural for a high
school girl as for low school girl to
want to wear pretty dresses and have
a good time. But any old citizen of
Ocala who looks back over the sue
cession of high school girls he has
known in twenty years can testify
that the great majority have turned
out well, and are filling lovely and
useful places in life. And we have
no reason to believe that the high
school girls of Ocala's sister towns
are any different.

PROSPERITY IS REAL
Conditions in United States Are
Not Due to the War.
Export of Agricultural and Manufac-
tured Products for Twenty Months
Prove This-Statistics That
Battle Republican Orators.

Uncle Sam would be on easy street
financially and business would be
booming even if there had not been
the stimulus to trade arising out of
the war in Europe said Fred B.
Lynch of Minnesota, in an interview.
Figures show, continued Mr..
Lynch, that within the last 20 months
we have exported $4,000, 100000 OF
agricultural and manufactured prod
ucts, while in the same time the value
OF war munitions exports make a to-
tai Of only $40 100000. These, in
deed, are startling figures, but we
could cut out the value of the exporta

tai coming solels' from the nations in
dustry and natural wealth. Of course
our Republican friends are quick to
say that all this prosperity is due to
the extraordinary conditions in Eu-
rope, but they are appealing to the
credulity of the people and will,
think, make very little Roadway with
those who take the pains to make a
cdreIul investigation.
For a long while the American peo-
pie were told that they could not have
prosperity under Democratic rule.
LOT OF Republican orators made that
statement SO often that no doubt they
got to believing it themselves. In
the face of the cold statistics of to-
DAY the Democrats can get back at
them very neatly, for 1t is a condition
or prosperity and not theory that
now stands revealed where even the
FULLEST man can see it for himself"

Mr.. F. w. Prewitt, who has been
city editor of the Gainesville Sun for
years, has left that position to take
another with the Plant City Courier.
Mr.. Prewitt is an excellent newspaper
man and has done his full share to-
ward making the Sun interesting. His
place on the Sun will be taken by
Oliver j. Farmer, well known to the
people of this section for many years
as editor of the Bronson Times-Dem-
ocrat. Mr.. Farmer headed his editor
ial items on the Bronson paper as One
Farmers "Opinion," and they were
always bright and interesting. For
the last few years he has been a
travelling representative of the Times
Union.

Treatment of Walls,

If holding is liked from which to
hang the pictures that do SO much to
make our rooms homeIike, the best
height for the molding is in line with
the top of the doors. The modern idea
seems to be to bring the window wood
work to the floor by using a paneling
beneath the sill. and to carry the tops
of doors and windows to a fixed line
the molding line. Thus the walls are
divided into rectangular spaces, and
the decorative effect of a good paper
is enhanced. A plain paper has the
dignity of a panel when so used.

THE BEST LAXATIVE

To keep the bowels regular the best
laxative is outdoor exercise. Drink
full glass of water half an hour be-
fore breakfast and eat an abundance
of fruit and vegetables, also establish
regular habit and be sure that your
bowels move once each day. When
a medicine is needed take Chamber
lain's Tablets. They are pleasant to
take and mild and gentle in effect.

President Wilson has made a very
fair proposition to both sides in the
threatened. railroad strike. He says
the employees should have an eight
hour day, and all familiar with the
strain on railroad men must admit he
is right. He wants the men to be
willing to work overtime for regular
time pay, and while this probably
isn't what they should have it would
be better for them to take it than
strike. The president is trying to act
for the food of the whole country and
the conflicting interests had better
agree with him.

Why the Rainbow Is Round.

The rainbow is round, partly be-
cause the way in which light rays
come from the sun makes it round,
and partly, perhaps, because the little
drops of water it shows through are
themselves round. The rainbow really
should be full circle, but we can see
only one bow-shaped half of it which
gives it its name. rainbow.-From

The Issue of smartness

The main trouble with the Repub.
hcan party is that 1T has no princi-
pies and no issues that relate to ac-
tual conditions Of government, and
does not know where to find them.
All the claim it can make to power
is the egotistical assertion that while
there may be no party issue, Repub-
l1cans are ipso facto smarter than
Democrats and so ought to govern.
No opposing party ever overturned a
national administration on such a plat.
form, and we doubt If one ever will.

The esteemed Cats doesn't think
much of high school girls-that is, of
course, with the exception of Ocala
high school girls. Being in Ocala he
was willing to allow that perhaps the
girls here were o. k, but he was sus-
picious of those of Tampa, Jackson
vile, Orlando and other places. Now,
If ne brings up the subject in one of
those other towns he will admit that
its girls are the real thing, but those
of Ocala are not what they should be.

some satisfaction for the devastation
of their native land. German. East

has an area of 34s,OO0 square miles,

 The wheat market showed consider able weakness at the outset, but re- covery soon began that developed later into an important general bulge. Re- ports of serious frost damage in Can ada gave the first upward impetus to prices, but fear of a widespread rail- way strike continued for a while to check buyers. Subsequently sharp gains were scored as a result of cable advices that even if the Dardanelles were immediately opened it would re- quire much time for supplies from Russia to be made available. Great Britain was said to be accepting bids from America with a good deal of freedom.
 Selling pressure by holders of wheat l and by speculative shorts increased on the upturn, and led to something of reaction. Corn swung upward with wheat. Oats derived their strength mainly l from other cereals.

 A number of bewitching women, headed by Miss Murray. are assembled, costumed and disported in such man ner as to make a success of almost any story. The settings are excellent.
 The action was laid at Bath, which was the greatest watering place of English fashion late in the eighteenth century. Lady Julia. the bride of Sir Jasper, is heartbroken over her young husbands attentions to Lady Barbara Flyte. She calls in Kitty Bellairs, who is Lady Barbara's rival as to the reigning beauty of the season, to help the officers of the barracks
 The story is well told in the picture and one that should please all. The Burton Holmes Travelogues will also be shown.
