FAIR OUTLOOK FOR THE FAIR

4 Star reporter Sunday afternoon
visited the fair grounds, 70 see what
had been done In the way Of prepar-
ing for our annual county exposition
and found the prospects most encour-
aging.
| So far as this scribe can remember,
the grounds have never looked so
neat and clean on the days Innmed-
lately preceding the opening OF a
fair They seem 10 have been gone
over with everything except feather
duster. Whitewash has been applied
az lavishly as at a political lnVestl-
cation. Mending has been done wher.
ever needed. The 'shaky old steps of
the grandstand have been replaced
with new ones, while across the race
track the judges stand has also been
haif-soled and reinforced wherever
needed.
In the middle Of the racetrack
oval space has been polished off 10
serve as a starting ground for the
expected airplanes, and tAe~racetrack
itself has been put In excellent order.
The report has been circulated that
..ere would be no races this year, and
the feathers of the railbirds conse-
quently were droopy, but they may
perk up again, for there are going to
be some fine contests. About dozen
fast horses from other parts are
booked for the races, and several
local equines will also try for first
place under the wire, During our
short visit, a couple of jockeys who
were exercising their horses on the
track, INDUCED in two or three fur
long dashes, which were viewed with
great interest by good-sized crowd
We observed a number of church
members among the spectators and
took their names down, intending to
report them to their pastors-but one
of them stole our notebook
There has also been a doubt about
the exhibits, but Mr.. F. w. Ditto,
superintendent Of the grounds, said
that there were now more applicants
for space than on the first day of the
last fair, and many exhibits already
in place. He expected the stock
show to be particularly good. The
reported noticed with pleasure that
good, heavy brush arbors has been
put over the stock pens that have
hitherto been uncovered.
We understand that the educational
exhibit is going to be something ex-
ira We had message to that effect
Saturday.
There is no doubt that there will
be the best line of amusements ever
shown at any fair here, and the peo-
pie who attend needn't be afraid of a
dull minute from first to last.
The fair begins tomorrow with
"Children's Day." and large pro-
portion of the school children of Mar
ion county, their teachers and par
ents are expected to be present. We
understand the Ocala schools intend
to do themselves proud, and the en-
tire town should be on hand to see
them march to the fair grounds.
Broadway is in very good order, all
things considered, but unless there is
heavy rain the street committee
should have it well sprinkled every
NIGHT

To prevent the attack Of bronchitis

Anuric tablets should be obtained at

Pierce, and, as they flush the bladder
and cleanse the kidneys, they carry
away much of the poisons and the
uric acid.
1t is important that broths, milk,

be given regularly TO strengthen the
system and increase the vital resis-

use Of the Anuric tablets, but in ad-

ERRONEOUS INDIGNATION

In the last few days there has been
widespread indignation caused by the
reports that America would be called
On to feed the Germans and Austrians
this rwinter-the reports being caused
BY the request of the food admins
trati0n that war economy should con-
tinue, as America yet had to help
many hungry nations, coupled with
the appeal of the Germans for
banges in the terms of the armistice
order to prevent famine among
N ir people.
