DELIGHTFUL AUTO TRIP

Mr.. and Mrs. John Dozier and their
daughter, Mrs. Sylvan McElroy OF
Orlando, returned yesterday morning
from a most delightful weeks trip in
their Maxwell car to the east coast
visiting Fort Pierce, Palm Beach, Mi
ami and Cocoanut Grove and all the
places of interest between. They were
joined by Mrs. A. J. Beck at Fort
Lauderdale.
Mr.. Dozier says he has never taken
a more enjoyable trip or through a
more beautiful country. Coming back
he made the distance from Miami to
Orlando in one day. His entire ex-
pense for the operation of the car
for the 841 miles travelled, with three
passengers all the time and four
part of the time, was $11.40. The
gasoline consumed was SO gallons, al
an average price of 30c. per gallon
and the average mileage was % miles
per gallon for the entire trip.

NOTICE TO MEMBERS
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

The members of the Presbyterian
church and others who are in the
habit of worshiping there are re-
quested to be present at the prayer
meeting tonight at 1870 O'Clock for
the purpose of considering some feat
ures of the food conservation cam
paign of the administration and to
concert some. measures by which we
may furnish the administration the
information which it desires. This
is not an official matter, but we seek
to cooperate in as far as possible il.
measures which have been adopted
for the saving of food and furnishing
food to the suffering people of Eu-
rope. 1t has been well said: every
flag that flies opposite the German
one is by proxy las yeti the Ameri-
can flag, and the armies fighting in
our defense cannot be maintained
through this winter unless there is
food enough for them and for THEN
women and children at home There
can only be food enough if America
provides it. And American can only
provide it by the personal service and
patriotic cooperation of US all"
America has not as yet realized what
| it is going to mean to be at war with
the Teutonic Allies. It is the part of
wisdom to begin to understand, and
make ready.
| The government desires to know in
how far the people are voluntarily
complying with their recommends
tions. 1t is very little thing that
we furnish it the information in order
that it may know how much food may
be exported. 1t is desired that at
least a representative of every fam
lily that worships with us be present
! tonight. The whole matter will be
explained at that meeting.
| John R. Herndon, Pastor.

My Friends
1t becomes my privilege as well as
pleasure, in the absence Of your Ma
yor, to act in his stead in the exer
cises of the hour, and l am remind
ed that in all the ages, and in all the
countries of the world, men have
gathered around their camp-fres to
defend human liberty and human
right; so we are gathered here from
almost every state in the Union to
pledge once again our loyalty and our
devotion to our glorious country, and
it's cause of noble freedom; the spirit
of courage and of unity of which this
camp fire is an emblem.
I hold In my hand a small bit Of
wood taken from an historic tree
known as the Ben Hur Beech" I'M
der which Gen. Lew Wallace sat when
writing the major portion of his eel
ebrated work, ben Hur." In adding
this to your camp fire, am confident
that 1t will perform its function OF
both light and heat in due proportion
to its size, and In like manner, I am
assured that you, as very small unit
in this great country of ours. will dc
your duty, and do it well.
| You will, of course recall the char
] lot race in the book referred to, con
ceived under spreading branches Of
the tree of which that fagot was 6
part, and of how Ben Hur reached
the goal first; just so, my fellow citi
zens at this time, acting as your rep
resentative | pledge you unfalterine
allegiance and support to that states
man and scholar, Woodrow Wilson
who occupies place in your hearts
and minds coordinate with tn,
thoughts OF the great and only Georg'
Washington, knowing full well tina
you will uphold his hands in thi
struggle for the freedom of the wor1t
and that when the goal shall havt
been reached, your ship of state undo
his guidance and with the help of tn
God of all nations, will crooss the lin
between the goal posts hand in hant
and shoulder to shoulder with tn
ships of state of your allies, thereb,
insuring that kind of peace which vii
endure for all time. I thank you.

MR.. ID. w. TOMPKINS
WILL DEAL IN MOTORS

Mr.. D. W. Tompkins some months
ago saw the finish of a livery barn
as business proposition, and imme-
diately began to prospect for new
line to take the place of his horses
and carriages which were occupying
his stables at the corner of Fort King
avenue and South Magnolia street.
He was not long in decided that the
logical business to enter at this day
and time was the automobile line, and
as consequence he is now in it good
and proper. having taken the local
agency for three popular makes of
cars, the Hudson, Dodge and Chevro-
let.
Mr.. M. L. Reynolds has charge Of
the sales for the Chevrolet, while Mr..
Mack Taylor is handling the Hudson
and Dodge. Both these gentlemen
have had experience in the game,
and being acquainted with every fea-
ture of the machines which they are
handling are bound to make a big
thing out of it for the owner of the
garage.
Mr.. Tompkins, while he has aban-
doned the livery business, is still in
the livestock trade, and expects to
have at all times goodly herd of
mules and horses on hand for his pat
rons.
The stalls have been removed from
the former stable property and the
entire floor space, over $500 square
feet, is to be used as show room for
automobiles. When the whole room
has been reprinted and the floor
lowered to the street level, as is at
present intended, it will be an ideal
place for the display of cars.
Mr.. Tompkins and a crew of men
went to Palatka last evening to I'M
load car of Chevrolets, and he is
expecting to have them in his new
place by tomorrow evening. He al
ready has a number of autos of the
two other makes he is representing on
the floor for demonstration pur-
poses.
The Star wishes Mr.. Tompkins and
his associates. every success in the
venture. @

JOSEPH SHUFORD

The funeral of Mr.. Joseph Shuford,
who died at the Camp dam on the
Withlacoochee river yesterday, will
be held this afternoon at 4 o'clock
from the McIver & MacKay chapel.
Rev. J. II. Gross of the Methodist
church, viii oficiate, and interment
viii be in Greenwood cemetery.
M. Shuford went to the Withla-
coochee dam last Tuesday to spend a
short time with his only son, Mr.. J.
F. Shuford, who is employed in the
power plant at that place. He SEEM
ed in excellent health and was ap-
parently enjoying his visit. Some
time during Tuesday forenoon he was
missed, and a search resulted in the
finding Of his body in very shallow
water near the plant. An examining
physician says that he does not be-
lieve that he was drowned, but rather
that he had a sudden heart attack,
and fell into the water where his
body was found.
Mr.. Shuford came to Ocala in
1881 from Missouri, and has lived
here continuously since that time.
About five years ago when he decid-
ed to retire from active work at his
trade as mason he built a comfort
able home on the Silver Springs
boulevard, where he spent his time
raising truck and poultry in a small
way merely as pastime. "Uncle
Joe," the name by which his friends
always greeted him, was a most con.
genial man and made friends of ev.
eryone. He was n years old.
