IT WILL BE LIEUT.. BELL

Mr.. Joseph Bell, who retired from

ly rendered his services for army
duty, has been notified of his nomina-
tion by Colonel Blanding for a COM
mission as first lieutenant in the Sec
ond Regiment, and will be assigned to

FRENCH, BRITISH AND
GERMAN AIR FIGHTERS
Judgment Passed on Their Respective
Merits by a TeutOn
General
(Associated Press)

The Hague, Netherlands, July Is.
Observation-Disclosures COM
parisons of British, French and Ger
man methods of air-fghting were
made recently by General Won Hoep-
pner, commander of the German fly
ing forces in an interview with the
Berlin correspondent of the Holland
News Bureau. General Won Hoeppner
admitted that the air forces of the
Entente Allies were superior on the
western front and in the Balkans, but
said that on the eastern front the
German airmen outnumbered their
adversaries. Mere superiority in num-
bers, however, he professed, to be-
lieve, meant nothing when compared
with the quality of machines and of
the men flying them. He added:
"The Frenchman is obviously not to
be placed on par with our airmen
from the point of view of morale, but
it is just in flying the Briton proves
he is of the German race and there
fore has love of fighting. In gen.
eral the Frenchman only attacks
when he feels himself numerically
superior He avoids a fight under
equal conditions. The Briton seeks
the combat. The Frenchman only at
tacks once; if the first attack be un-
successful, he Immediately retires.
The Englishman, on the other hand,
fights till he or his opponent goes
under.
"In their Spad aeroplanes of 200
horsepower, and the British Sopwith
triplanes, they possess splendid ma
chimes which mostly equal our best
machines.
"More important, however, than the
superiority of the machines is that of
the crews. The enemy battle airmen
are just as much up to their job as
ours. That is not so, however, with
the accommodating airmen. In the
case of the French, their training,
which should be of a purely military
character, is mediocre; while with the
British it is even inferior. Here are
to. be found the deeper causes of the
better performances of our iiers.
"To Britishers flying is sport, the
climax whereof is a fight. They seek
the combat regardless Of the question
whether the carrying out of the
charge entrusted to them renders

Fighting for Both the Russians and

Front
ASSOCIATED Press)

Petrograd, July 28-Russia's wom-
ems battalion in action July 25th
near Smorgen took as prisoners Ger
man women, revealing for the first
time the fact that the Germans are
using women as fighters on the east
ern front. Of the 200 composing the
battalion reaching the front, only
fifty remained, according to the stor-
les of ten wounded heroines here.
Twenty were killed, eight taken pris-
orers and the others wounded. They
said the Russian infantry deserted
them. They say they had no fear OF
personal safety, only an unpleasant
sentiment when they saw the first
corpses.

BOARD OF TRADE
Small but Energetic Attendance and
Some Good Work Done
Friday Evening

An important question was taken
up before the Board of Trade at the
regular meeting Friday night-that
was the matter of getting the state
road department to come here and ex-
plain the proposition of getting the
Federal Highway to come by Ocala.
The secretary presented copy of let
ter he had written to Mr.. VIM. F.
Cooke, inviting him to meet with the
board, and reply from Mr.. Cooke,
stating that he would be glad to meet
with US at any time after July 30th.
The meeting was unanimously of the
opinion that we should extend every
courtesy and entertain Mr.. Cooke at
luncheon, auto rides, etc. All men,
bers of the board of trade are re-
quested to join in this matter and
assist in getting rousing meeting on
the evening of August 10th at the
board of trade room.
A committee was named to get up
data, solicit subscriptions, and report
to the board of governors, concerning
the matter of getting up little book
let advertising Ocala.
The board of trade is planning to
place an advertisement in the Auto
mobile Blue Book in next seasons is
sue which goes to press in Septem-
Der. The advertisement planned is an
outline of the state of Florida with
Ocala as the central figure, showing
all the hard roads leading into Ocala
from all parts of the state.

more was read, and is published be-
low.
The attendance was fairly good,
although the conditions of business
generally, owing to the war, are
somewhat depressed and good many
of the young men, the doctors and
others have joined the colors, who
heretofore have been live members in
the board of trade work.
Chance for a Broom Factory
The following interesting letter
was read:
Ollie Mordis, Ocala, Fla:
Let's see if you and can get few
business men to join in establishing
a broom factory, and several farmers
to grow broom corn for us. Now is
the time. Broom corn will be worth
good money for several years and we
can grow two crops year in Florida.
Some progressive locality can take
this US and be the broom corn dis
trict, as some are now potato, celery
or strawberry districts. Broom corn
/ is the best of all. | don't care whree;
it depends upon the business men and
farmers, in the support they tender
and the acreage they propose. I'd be
glad to hear from business men who
might be Interested and farmers who
have or would plant broom corn
Some men and some community may
profit by my experience, some COM
munity showing the most display of
interest. Respectfully,

London for the first time mention

the Germans have been recording for
several days past. London reported
the Germans showing considerable

BELL HAD EARLY STRUGGLES
inventor of Telephone Experienced
Common Fate Of Pioneers in
His Early Manhood.

Next to the reaping machine. which
drove famine from the world, Amer
ica's greatest gift to modern civili-
cation has been the telephone. The
name of its inventor, DR.. Alexander
Graham Bell, will live down the ages
after all but two or three present-day
Americans have been forgotten.
Unlike most famous inventors. Doc
tor Bell did not spring from ObSCurity
and poverty. His father was Il scholar
and scientist of note, and young Bell
received a ripe education. But he did
not escape the common fate of inven-
tors and pioneers. His struggles with
poverty came in early manhood in
stead of in bOyhOod. And they were
struggles as trying and as prOtracted
as fall TO the lot of few men. At one
time, while fighting to establish his
ridiculed TOY" as an article of genu-
inc use, he was reduced to the eX-
tremity of borrowing occasional half
dollars for a meal, sharing this lot
with his dynamic colleague, Theodore
y. Vail.
The world first learned Of the tele-
phone at the Centennial exposition at
Philadelphia in 1876. On January 20
of that year Il young college professor
of Salem, Mass, Alexander Graham
Bell, had executed specifications and
a claim for an invention embOdying an
Improvement in tclegraphy, which i'll
reality was telephone, and on Febru-
airy If his application for the Amer
lean patent was filed at Washington.
The first telephone message of
which there is record was this: Mr.,
Watson, come here, L want YOU Ii
was sent on March 10, 1876, by the i'll
veutOr from the top floor of Boston
boarding house TO u colleague, Thomas
y. Watson, in Il room below. Watson
heard every word and rushed 10 ap'
prise Bell of the fact. Almost 40 years
later, on January l., 1913, Doctor Bel
sent this same message to Mr.. Wat
son, only this time Bell was in New
York and Watson in San Francisco.

HOLD CONFERENCE.

The third quarterly conference OF
the Algiers Methodist church was
held Friday night, August II, with
DIR. w. w Holmes, the presiding
elder in the chair. The report made
by the pastor, DR.. c. c. Weir, wa
TO the effect that a large number
of new members have been received
and that the little chapel in when
his congregation has been working
since the September storm in 1912
is entirely inadequate for the pres
ent demand.
A committee was appointed TO

which exist. in order to match the pic
ture formed as an image in the mind
of the home-builder.
One of the styles which have been
established in bungalow design, ana
one which makes a strong appeal to
great many people, is the rustic type.
This type embodies the infusion or the
architecture of nature into the archl-
lecture of man. II implies the use or
some natural building material applied
in such a way that the suggestion OF
the big Out-of-dOOrs surrounds the
home. The purpose is absolutely de-
feated If such house is built on
narrow lot. A wide lot upon which
sufficient time and effort have been
spent TO adapt it to the house Is neces-
sary for the full realization of the adj
vantages Of this design. Shrubs, vines
trees and flower beds must be placed
with care and selected with pur'
nose to harmonic with the color
scheme of the bungalow. The rustic
bungalow is seen in its most appro
