Some business men, who never
spend penny with their home paper,
and who would never admit they have
any interest in a home paper, will
rush to their local editor for lot of
free publicity and boosting when
there is some free advertising wanted
for Chautauqua or the county fair or
some other public enterprise that will
make them few dollars. The point
of this remark is that no business in
a town but must, to some degree, de-
pend upon the local paper for valu-
able service. and there ought to be a
united and loyal working together by
all for the home town.

The Orlando Reporter-Star says:
'tThe Reporter-Star didn't have to
wait long for verification of its ap-
prehensions that the appointment of
Joe Earman to place on the board
of control was an agregious mistake.
Today's news columns tell of a dis
ruption in the board caused by this
appointment. One of Governor Cats
pointees, H. Clay Armstrong, was
asked for his resignation before he
took his seat as member of the
board, because he stated openly and
boldly that he would never vote for a
whisky dealer to be chairman. The
prompt removal of Armstrong may do
much to hold other members in leash,
and the affairs of the board and the
institutions under it's control may
move along with seeming smoothness,
SO far as the public is informed, but
so long as Earman is member it will
be in the face of strong protest,
though it be silent"

TEMPERANCE NOTES
(By the National Woman's Chris

A TRIBUTE TO DRY TOWNS.

Writing for the Atlantic Monthly,
Ida III. Tarbell tells of her experience
on a Chautauqua circuit in western
Pennsylvania, central Ohio and Michi-
gan.
I'VE came to know almost as soon
as we reached a new place whether the
town was dry or not" she says. "a
town that had been dry over period
of a dozen years had trimness about
the streets and buildings, a look of
freshness and energy about young peo-
pie and old which stood out in almost
incredible contrast to what we found
in the wet town of the same size. We
went to. one town In Ohio which had
been dry for 81 years, so the hotel
keeper told me. He claimed to be a
much-traveled person, and said that In
all the many towns which he had
known intimately, he had never found
one In which there was such fine lot
Of young people as here. In health,
In vigor, in initiative, he believed that
the young men and women, particular
ly OF the working classes, were tremen-
dously ahead of the same group in the
towns where liquor was freely dis
played"

HEALTHY FINANCES

A fellow takes pride in seeing his
own banks prosperous, especially when
he has watched the aforesaid banks
grow from infancy to sturdy manhood
and go through the good times and
the bad of the community that sup
ports them.
The Munroe & Chambliss National
Bank reached "high water mark" at
the close of business on the 9Th of
this month, its deposits and total re-
sources being greater on that day
than at any time in it's history.
Its deposits were S728, O44.59.
Total resources were S812,65O.87.
A year before that time, on the 9Th
of July, 1915, the total deposits of
the bank were s569, 298.O4, showing
an increase for the year in deposits
of $158, 746.55.
The steady and substantial growth
of this bank, both in deposits and in
the confidence of the public, is very
gratifying to the officers and stock
holders and shows healthy condition
of the country contributory to Ocala.
The Star predicts that, with the
big crops of staples and the heavy in
crease in the number of hogs and cat
tie in this section, the bank will reach
its mark of a million dollars in re-
sources within twelve months from
this date, and the deposits will not
fall far short of these round figures.

plaintive little voice: May I please
have some sugar or sunthin' just to
encourage this rice Hitler"

1t looks like Jacksonville is to have

Stars opinion that if the government

have selected a better place. Men
from somewhere up North should be
sent, and our Florida boys should go

The whole truth: The Kansas peni-
Tertiary is Q federal prison and the
United States government sends more
prisoners there than to any other fed
eraI prison because it has plenty OF
spare room for outsiders and because
it is a model of its kind, improving
both the health and the morals of Its
inmates.
