ADMIRAL HARRIE WEBSTER
LECTURES ON SAMOA
Speaks NJ Art Club of Richmond, Tell
Ing OF Wreck of yaudalia and OF
Home OF Stevenson.

Admiral Webster In q lecture yes
tcrday afternoon at the Art Club Of
Richmond gave a most interesting de-
scription of the Island of Samoa. The
admiral was in a position to. speak
most wildly of this noted island in tho
Pacific. he having been on tho vandalia
when it was shipwrecked In tho harbor
Of Samoa. and in consequence having
spent considerable length of time on
tho island. Many Of the pictures IL
Illustrating the lecture had been pho
tographcd by Admiral Webster him
self
The first slides shown, wcre OF 'thc
ships which were wrecked In the cy-
clone-thc VandaIia and the English
and German ships. Two. of these pic
lures were reproductions OF paintings
BY an English artist on shipboard: one
showing the English and American
ships plunging in the storm, and the
othe" the English sailors cheering the
Nandalia as they passed between It
and the reef.
THE noolcst savage in the South
Sea Islands, was tho designation
given by Admiral Webster 10 "Matafa'
whose portrait bore out the title
Matafa presented tho appearance OF
bronze statue, and it was easy to
realize that he and the other Samoan
athletes shown could have formed the
chain from shore TO ship to rescue
the sailors The admiral said that
Matafa refused TO accept any payment
for the services OF himself and his
men. but that the navy had fitted out
a whale ship and sent it to him as 4
present.
A number OF types OF Samoan girls
and women were shown, among the
most interesting of which we're the
village maids ,.,-
Views were given of tho bread tree,
that mainstay OF the Swiss Family
Robinson, and the speaker told OF hav-
Ing eaten bread made from the fruit
LuXuriant glades Of palms bananas
and coconut trees led to Samoan VIII
lagos with the quaint thatch-roofed
houses. 4 native buryins ground was
seen. each grave a stone sarcophaEus
OF primitive form.
The grave OF Robert Louis Steven
son Was made after the native manner
and marked with bronze Plate bear
ing his famous epitaph. The house
in which stevenson lived and died ex-
cited much interest. as did a photo
graph OF Stevenson. with one OF his
Samoan friends Admiral Webster
pointed ont the room which Stevenson
used a. study, and said that on it's
walls hung n copy OF the Declaration
Of Independence.
The admiral is a favoritc at the Art
Club and his delightful lecture was
received with enthusiasm. Miss NJ e.

Mr.. and Mrs. C. Groves received q
letter from their son Armour, written
in a hospital in San Francisco on May
18th in which he stated that on that
day he was to go onto the operating
table for the third time. Armour
left here last winter and enlisted in
the regular army. He was sent to
the Mexican border, and while doing
guard duty one stormy night he calght
q severe cold, which settled in his ear
causing a gathering. He was kept in
the emergency hospital for some days
with his head packed in ice and was
then sent to the hospital at San Fran
cisco. Two operations wereaperform-
ed, in one of which a piece of bone
was removed from in front of the ear.
Since the last operation DR.. Leighton
received q letter from the hospital
surgeon stating that the last opera
ton was made necessary by the devel-
opment Of blood poisoning. In this
operation a portion Of the bone back
Of the ear was removed, and the letter
stated that the chance Of recovery
were very poor.
The Groves family have certainly
done their duty in the service of their
country. The father served In the
regular army, Armour has sacrificed
his health and perhaps his life and
Charlie q younger brother, enrolled in
the national guard here but was re-
jected on account Of physical disabili-
ty. There will be no lack Of sympa-
thy for the family, but sympathy is
but q slight reward for Inc sacrifice
that they nave made.

Shell Shock and the Way IL Hits and

Afflicts Its Victims.
To the medical profession modern war
has brought a new disease, known as
shell shock or shock SHE'LL as the
British war Office officially calls it.
To understand its cause and action
we must take our place in the trenches
with a company on the first line. An
attack is simmering and the constant
preliminary bOmbard ment of heavy and
light artillery is on.
Shells, shrapnel. high explosives are
r rained on them and on the trench with
it's narrow communication TO the sup
ports in the rear until there is a con-
slant din of tremendous explosions and
the air is filled with noxious gas. Time
has come to seek cover and the soldier
ducks his steel helmeted head into his
underground dugout, crowds down with
his mates and waits for the storm to
blow over. Hours pass, days pass, some
preliminary bomba rdments lasting four
or five days. and food, water. patience
+ and nerves are exhausted By the awful
din, the nOisome air and the crowded
Win SAShLo va
nearby men .disemboweled or otherwise
wounded unto death.
5 Then it is that minds go awry. Shell
shock attacks the veterans as well as
the recruits. The poor lads with neu-
rasthenic tendencies, with poor nervous
reserve or with histories of sapping
excuses and habits, begin to expert
ence an ever growing fear. Their limbs
start to tremble their hearing becomes
affected. they cannot talk or see, and
when they can be rescued in a lull they
have become jibbering or silent, trem-
bling human animals, almost literally
| scared to death.
Scientifically, the disease may be di-
vfded into two classes. One Is the
pseudo shell shock following the course
| outlined in men of unstable nervous
equilibrium. deprived of food and made
to fear for their lives: and the second
class is true shell shock occurring In
men who really sustain blows of falling
sand bags and planks or are buried In
| the upheavaI OF earth following shell
| explosion Unfortunately the false d.
| vision comprises over 95 per cent OF
the total number reported, and they
| offer the poorest hope of recovery o.
| the proper martial spirit which the sol
der should have. The true cases gen
orally recover within fortnight. They
| may, however. slip on then into the
| pseudo class and become unfit for &C
| tive military duty.-Dr Kellogg Speed

In his office at the courthouse Tues
day, Judge Smith joined the hands of
Mr.. Peter Burschell and Mrs. Diana
Staff in matrimony.
Mr.. Burschell and his bride are
both from Stanton, Pa, where they
were childhood friends. They came
here about the same time, some six
or seven years ago, Mr.. Burschell be-
ing one of the good citizens who set
TO work to improve the country
around Summerfeld, where he has
made good home. Mrs. Staff made
her home in Ocala, where she soon
found many friends. For the past
three or four years she has been with
the telephone company, having charge
of the night shift. She has been a
very accommodating and efficient
operator and by her skill and tact has
won the good will and confidence of
many who never saw her, but appre-
ciated her prompt and cheerful an
swers to their calls.
Mrs. Burschell will remain on duty
at the telephone Office for a few
nights, until her successor has learn
ed her duties, and will then go to her
new home near Summerfield; where
the Star and her other friends hope
she and her husband will have long
and prosperous existence.
