A Wish.

Do YOU wish the world were better Let me tell
you what TO do
Set watch upon your actions, keep them always
straight and true
Rid your mind OF selfish motives let your thoughts
be true and high.
You can make little Eden of the sphere you oc-
cupy.
Do you wish the world were happy Then remem-
Der day by day
lust to scatter deeds OF kindness as you pass along
the way
For the pleasure OF the many may be ottimes traced
TO one,
As the hand that plants the acorns shelters armies
from the sun.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox,

Dr. William Jensen, the chiroprac-
tor, who was so successful in his
practice at 'Ocala and Umatilla dur
ing the first half of the present year,
and who has been at Camp Custer for
the past three months, has returned
to 0cala DR.. Jensen has been grant
ed an honorable surgical discharge on
account of valvular heart trouble, and
feeling that Florida offered him a
better chance for health than else
where, is planning to take up his
practice again. His friends and pa
tients are urging him to stay in
Ocala, while the Umatilla people are
urging him to comeato them, so there
seems no way to please all concerned
but to compromise, and this he has
decided to do, by locating in Eustis,
and going from there to his Umatilla
patients, as well as coming to Ocala
on certain days of the week. DIR.
Jenson's friends trust that his health
will improve and that he will find
himself in much better physical con-
dition when he has thoroughly rested
from the strenuousness of camp life.
