Marie Jean Paul Roch Yves Gilbert
Motier Lafayette. who was born at
his ancestral home in the Auvergne,
in Central France, Sept. 6. 1757-a
hundred and forty-one years ago to-
day-was largely responsible for the
fact that an American army helped
turn the German tide of invasion of
his native land this summer. Next
to George Washington, to LaFay-
cite is due the credit that the
baby American republic was not
strangled in it's cradle If it had not
been for his example and influence, it
is hardly likely that France would
have declared war on Great Britain
in 1878. France at that time hated
Great Britain with an intensity caus-
ed by centuries of almost constant
war But the king and his nobility
were also very distrustful of repub-
lican Americas well they might
be, for the American revolution in
spired the one which later broke out
most of the members of his court.
However, then as now, bravery and
generosity were foremost among the
traits of the Franch, mobiles and COM
mons, and LaFayette's influence was
the deciding weight in the baalnce.
If France had not aided America, the
revolution would probably have been
a failure and America would have re-
manned colony of Great Britain. It
would have f1ourished, of course, but
it would not have been the mighty
nation it is now. Lafayette was
one of the few unselfish great
men whose lives are recorded in his
tory. He did the best he could for
America, the best he could for
France, and asked no reward from
either.

NEED WOMEN ON RAILROADS
Many Jobs Opened to Them by the
War at Same Salaries Men
Have Been Receiving

The number of railroad jobs that
women are able to hold has increased
tremendously since the war began.
One of the first new jobs for women
was car cleaning, and they have been
engaged in this work in the Boston
yards of the Boston & Albany rail
road for many months.
Now the railroad administration
contemplates the employment of
women almost exclusively as clerks,
accountants, ticket sellers. station
agents, crossing watchmen and car
cleaners, in which jobs they can re-
lease men for the army or for more
important work. To some extent, it is
understood, women will be employed
as track laborers.
Every effort will be made to guard
the safety and health of these women
workers, and it is probable that the
work of the women in industry serv-
ice of the department of labor will be
of great value in solving problems
connected with their employment.
Women will be paid the same as men
for the same work. English and
French railroads were long ago COM
PEELED to hire women for railroad
work on an extensive scale. In France
the women even act as firemen on To-
comotives.
There are training schools for
women ticket agents in several large
cities already, where young women
between the ages of 81 and 35 years
are given two months courses in rail-
road geography and simple account
ing. They are paid $25 month while
learning and afterwards receive from
$50 to 5000 month.

Every time a war breaks out you
hear of soldiers lives being saved by
the Bibles they carry in their pockets
over their hearts. This story is told
with such regularity that it is begin
ming to be suspected that it is a myth,
the average soldier being rather shy
about carrying Bible into battle
anyhow. But the following well au-
thenticated story from Scamp and
Trench" of Camp Wheeler will hardly
have place in religious literature:
3'W. II. Levi, so years of age. negro
Y religious secretary at Camp Wheel
err, was killed by lightning last Fri
day night about 8 o'clock. He had a
Bible in his hand as the bolt struck
him. Levi was from Talladega, Ala,
and had been at Camp Wheeler only
about three weeks. He was preparing
to hold religious service later in the
evening and had gone in the Y tent
near the receiving camp for his Bible
when struck. P. ]. Blackwell, an
other negro Y secretary, who was
standing a few feet away when Levi
was killed did not feel the lightning

CARD FROM Mr.. CAMP
Gives Thanks to Marion County Mer-
chants for their Loyalty to
the Government


Ocala, Fla, Sept. 5, 1913.
To the Marion County Merchants
Association:
Gentlemen: Please accept my
hearty congratulations for your pat
riotic efforts in observing and carry
ing forward the rules and regula-
tions of the county and federal food
administration in the conservation of
food which has been so helpful in the
nations supreme endeavor to supply
our army and navy and the armies and
navies of our allies with food neces-
sary to win the war.
You are urged not to cease your
efforts in well doing but if possible
to increase them now that the harvest
season is at hand. An increased con-
sumption of corn, potatoes, rice,
syrup and other home grown food
stuffs will save just that much wheat,
sugar and fats that may be trans
ported overseas for our soldiers and
to that extent will be Marion county's
contribution in bringing the war to
a speedy and successful termination.
As it is now no longer necessary
for the retail merchants to purchase
substitutes with their wheat flour
from the wholesaler, | want to urge
you to buy your meal and grits from
our own home mills as in this way
not only will our farmers be benefit
ted but the transportation of foreign
meal and pritS into this country will
save room for the transportation of
other things that you cannot purchase
at home.
In the name of the federal and the
county food administration / again
most heartily thank you for your eff
forts, loyalty and patriotism.
Very truly yours,
Clarence Camp,
Marion County Food Administrator.
