Miss Carrie Barco spent Saturday

with her sister, Mrs. C. r. Veal, re-
turning TO Ocala Saturday.
Mr.. Harry Woodward spent SUM-
day night In Ocala, and returned
home Monday.
All signs indicate a bumper potato
crop this season, but we hear moth
ing more about those curing houses,
spoken of last fall.
Our government advocates doing
everything that will help win the war
and we think it would be a good war
measure for every town and city to
suspend for the duration of the war
their ordinances prohibiting the
keeping of pigs, and let every family
that SO desires fatten a hog. Pig
pens can be made more sanitary than
a COW lot or horse stable. and then
when piece of bread finds it's way
to the swill tub it will be like bread
cast upon the waters-gathered up

est.

busy gathering hay and quite lot
is being saved this fine weather.

KEEP THE CHILDREN
IN ANOTHER CORNER

The band leader has complained to
the mayor of the noise made by chill
dren at the Friday night concerts.
The kids romp on the grass around
the bandstand and sometimes make
such a fuss that they annoy the
bandsmen so much that they can
hardly play.
The complaint is an old one. Some
years ago, the people had the children
band -broke-that is. they wouldn't
make much if any noise while the
band played. But those children have
grown some years and inches. and
now there is another set of kids who
just naturally want to romp and
laugh when they get out in the open
air on the grass.
1t is difficult matter to handle. 1t
certainly isn't right to allow the
bandsmen and the people who come to
hear them to be disturbed; also, it
goes against nature to repress the
laugh of a child who isn't old enough
to know the whole world wasn't made
for it, and is inspired to more ex-
luberance by the very music older peo-
pie keep quiet to hear.
The Star recommends a tacit agree
ment among parents to send those OF
their children who want to play over
on the other corners of the court
house square, where there is just as
much grass to play in and where their
noise won't disturb anybody.
We must have the music and we
can't squelch the children.
