ceive my learned friend nor to asso-

CONVENTION OF UNITED
WAR WORKERS OF
MARION COUNTY

At meeting of the United War
Work campaign committee for Ocala
last evening, final arrangements were
made for the campaign locally, and
the plans for the county convention to
be held in the courthouse in Ocala to-
morrow, Wednesday, afternoon. at
half past one O'Clock. At this conven-
tion it is hoped to have present every
worker and participator in the drive
next week, and to give final instruc-
tions with reference to the work that
is to be done.
The meeting tomorrow will be a
brief one and no worker in the county
should fail to be present to receive
his working material and final in
structions.
Attention was called to the fact that
on account of the increased demands
incident to new conditions which have
arisen since the quota of S170, 800, 000
was adopted for the country, that il
was hoped that each county would GO
over the top by 25 per cent. The
amount now authorized to be raised is
$3.50, 100000
| The drive begins next Monday ano
closes the following Monday. wher
every pledge and donation must be
reported. Judging from the way the
men are working and the interest they
are showing, there is no doubt but
that old Marion county will do hel
part an dthat there will not be {
