DR.. REMBERT SMITHS SER
MON LAST SUNDAY MORNING

DR.. Rembert Smith preached Sun
day morning from prophecy con-
corning Christ in the 9Th verse and
53rd chapter of Isaiah: Because
he had done no violence, neither was
any deceit in his mouth .

Dor and capital which prove the
elemental passions OF man are only

MRS. B. SCHOENTHAL
ENTERS ETERNAL REST

Last Friday afternoon was bright
as day in June yet a feeling of
sadness and longing brooded over
the city, all the stores were closed
and leading merchants gathered
with other friends around the bier
of Mrs Bertha Schoenthal
Just three weeks before that day
her only son died on her 10th birth
day and, after she had seen the deep
peace upon the face Of her boy, :
as she called him, her brave spirit
faltered. She had borne up till then
but soon sank into the coma OF
acute pneumonia and entered into
eternal rest.
She had been the Oldest merchant
in town, milIiner in tie same
building for over so years. She had
sold white wells to happy brides,
dainty baby caps TO proud young
mothers and somber crepe to hide
the sorrowful faces of heart broken
women of all ages. Always Mrs.
Schoenthal was gentle and sympa-
thetic and yet a thorough business
woman. She had come from Bava-
ria in her girlhood and was married
to Mr. j. A. Schoenthal in Baltimore
where he was buried when his wife
was only 25 years old. She was left
with one son and two daughters and
her life was centered in them.
On her business trips to New
York she always stopped in the
"city of monuments" to visit that
one under which her girlish heart
was buried with the dearer one yet
than all other.
When her pastor, Rabbi David
Marx, of Atlanta, stood before the
congregation to conduct her funeral
he read many comforting passages
from the Bible and explained how
in the sadness of bereavement one
could reflect upon the solemn truth
that the end is better than the be-

ginning and the day of death better
than the day of birth.
He paid tribute TO the noble cha<-
acter of Mrs. Schoenthal, to her
steadfast faith in her Heavenly
Father even in deepest sorrow and
trials and reminded his hearers of
the value OF her life as a memory
and the blessing she had been to
her friends and neiehbors.
Many beautiful flowers covered
and surrounded the casket which
was carried to Atlanta for interment
in Oakland Cemetery and was ae-
companied by many friends from
Marietta.
The pall-bearers were Messrs.
Monte Hirsch. George Dewald, Har-
old Hirsch, George Gershon, of At
lanta, and j. P. Cheney r.. A. Fine
and w. F. Roesel, of Marietta.
Mrs. Schoenthal is survived by
her daughters. Miss Pauline Schoen
thai, and Mrs. Fred Banks, her
grandson, Mr. Joseph Banks, of Tex
as, her grand daughters, Mrs. Geor-
gena Thomas, of Atlanta, and Mrs.
Arthur Well, of Richmond Va, her

ON THE WAY TO ARCADIA

The Atlantic Coast Lines special
train to Arcadia, for the accommoda-
ton of teachers on their way to the
state convention at that place, reach
ed OcaIa at about 1850 this morning.
There was rather small crowd on
board, but as it was picking up teach
ers at almost every station it viii
probably be filled when it reaches Ar
cadia.
On board were President Murphree
and Professor McQuarrie of the state
university, State Inspector Shelton
Phillips and other notables. They in
vited the Star man to go with them,
and after he had gone thru the train
and taken look at the bunch of good
looking school marms from Alaehua,
he was sorry he couldn't.
The train was boarded here by
Superintendent Brinson and Professor
Clyatt of this county and Prof. Bar
Der of Tallahassee. A number OF
other Marion teachers are going, but
they went, or will go on other trains.
Our former principal, Mr.. Work
man, is president of the association.

RUSSIA'S REPLY
ASSOCIATED Pressl

London, Dec. 27.1-In speaking to
the press representatives at Petrograd
yesterday, M. Pakrd dvski, the Russian
foreign minister, declared that while
Russia appreciated the good will and
lofty motives of President Wilson, he
said, they had been created by "false
and hypocritical moves of the Berlin
government" Nevertheless, he de-
clared, the allied governments would
reply with all possible fullness. He as
serted they would reiterate that the
war would continue until the ravaged
territories had been restored and un-
til there had been created state OF
affairs in which the existence of small
nations would be assured and. in which
g new world wide conflict would be
impossible.

If they can bush-whack like the Jolo-
amos can, they are going some. These
people are Mohammedans, and think
the sure way to go to heaven is to kill
a Christian. If they can do that they
don't care whether you kill them or
not. That makes them fight like
fury when you get them cornered.
But if you can't get them in a tight
place they run. We have broken their
spirit as far as fighting goes for they
know they can't equal our better
weapons and discipline. We are arm
ed with the Krag carbine and the Off

is the weapon that will stop any man,
Moro or not.

WILLIAM GROIN ON THE
OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD

A friend OF Mr.. VIM. ii. Crom, who
spent number of his boyhood years
in this city, and who is now lieu
tenant in the Philippine constabulary,
received the following, which will be
of interest to all our readers:
Camp Andres, Sulu, Nov. 9, 1916.
Dear Friend: Just got your letter
of September 10th, and was very glad
to hear that you were still alive. It's
been over two years since / heard
fro many one in Ocala. David White,
of Citra, is stationed near here and
we get together once in a while and
compare letters. He hears from
young lady about once in six months,
and that is all the Ocala news we get.
If you want to hear something
about this place, you won't be hard to
please for there is very little to tell.
Just at present I am the only white
man here. 1t consists of long bar
racks built of bamboo, in which
sleeps my company of sixty Filipinos
and Moros, guard house, and my
own quarters, also of bamboo with a
thatched roof. The whole thing is
surrounded by ten-foot barbed wire
fence with sentry by the gate. About
two hundred yards off are the little
shacks where the families of the men
live. The whole thing is in the bend
of a river, the Tubig Putt white
river), where the people battle and
wash their clothes. The country
around is rolling hill country, with
very few trees and much tall grass.
All this IS in the center of the eastern
end of the island of Jolo in the Pro-
vince of Sulu. 1t is one of the most
southern of the Philippine Islands, in
fact, we are only short distance
from Borneo and Celebes. I am deputy
governor and everything else here and
my main job is to keep the Joloano
Moros from going on the warpath and
raising cain. 1t is only just recently
that this district has been quieted

laws out now. They get in rifles and
ammunition from Borneo and Singa.

| have had several pretty good fights
with different bands, and at present
there are only about dozen outlaws
in the district and only three or four
| guns. In addition to the rifles, these
hombres carry a long knife called a
barong that is sure some cutting
weapon. Three or four of the soldiers
have gotten cut at one time or an
other, and they can certainly make
some slashes in you. They also throw
big spears, but don't poison them
