Woman's Club to Raise Funds for
Equipping the School Grounds


Woman's Club to Raise Funds for
Equipping the School Grounds
The educational committee of the
Woman's Club is getting up an enter
tainment, the proceeds from which
are to be used to purchase play ap-
paratus for equipping the school
grounds of Ocala, so necessary for
the proper physical development of
our school children.
Throughout the country physical
directors are advocating that scien-
tific methods and means be used for
the attainment of that physical de-
velopment so essential to the highest
mental development. This is being
emphasized more than ever before in
public addresses and many magazine
articles. In the city of Asheville
$1,000 has been spent on such a play
ground, and especially during the
summer months the grounds are
crowded from morning until night. A
supervisor is in constant attendance
and directs the children in the proper
use of the apparatus, which consists
of swings, giant strides, horizontal
and parallel bars, see-saws, merry
go-rounds, slides, a swimming pool,
croquet and tennis sets and many
other pieces found beneficial in the
physical training of the young. The
improvement in the children has been
wonderful, according to the super
visor in charge Strength, agility,
health and as a consequence of these,
more active mentality is very notice
able.
Many Florida cities are .equipping
Fairgrounds. Why should Ocala not
be up and doing along similar lines
The Woman's Club is attempting
beginning at least. A delightful pro-
gram, which will be published later,
has been arranged for Monday eve
ming, April 1st, at the Temple theater.
Come out every one and help in this
splendid work.

meeting 1T 2.30 Tuesday afternoon at
the aldermen's rooms for that purpose
The ballots from Ward two were the
first to be examined as the result of
the voting in that ward was very close.
Only two defective ballots were found,
one being marked with the cross sig
nifying the party. on the back instead
of at the top. This happened by the
paper being folded when the mark was
made On the other one the voter had
written his name. Both of these bal
lots were Republican ballots and the
ward officers had decided that they
were defective. Both parties sustained
the decision of the ward committee
and thus the vote of Ward two was
not changed.
The votes for the head of the ticket
were then counted as in all other other
cases the plurality was too great to
admit of any change in the result. The

LACK Two VOTES
Action Hung Up on La
Toilette in Wisconsin
Assembly

Madison, Wis. March 5-A round
robin was circulated tonight in the
state Assembly for the signature of
those who wish their condemnation of
Senator La Toilette to go on record in
case it is impossible to reach Il formal
vote.
A gentlemen's agreement by men,
bers of the State Assembly to shun
technicality and proceed to vote tonight
on the resolution condemning Senator
La Toilette was shattered in the first
half hour of the session. The break
came when Speaker Whittet ruled that
40 minutes of debate was all that could
be allowed. At this Assemblyman
Evjus, La Toilette floor leader, said
that if gag laws" were to be enforced
he would not be bound by the agree
ment to vote nor would be cast his
ballot. A motion to raise the call show
ed that the loyalists lacked two votes
,of enough to impose their program on
the Assembly.
This halted all business for the time
being. Knitting bags and newspapers
came out i'll the galleries and pipes on
the floor while both sides settled down
to wait for the possible arrival of more
members reported nearing the city on
night trains.
