Relief from Eczema

Don't worry about eczema or other
skin troubles. You can have a clear,
healthy skin by using little zemo,
obtained at any drug store for Csc, or
extra large bottle at $1.00.
Zemo generally removes pimpIes,
blackheads, blotches, eczema and ring
worm and makes the skin clear and
healthy. Zemo Is clean, penetrating,
antiseptic liquid, neither sticky nor
greasy and stains nothing. 1t is easily
applied and costs q mere trifie for each
application. It is always dependable.

NOT FAIR
DEAR MISS IAIpEAX.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
l am high school girl, II, and my
brothers-A, 21, and B, 19-have al
ways shown the most brotherly love
for me. lately has met a certain
girl, II, who has forced her attentions
upon him by writing love letters. A
is soon to leave for the service. He
told b that he could not marry now
as he would have to be the sole sup
port of mother and me after he (A)
leaves. B said that he will help sup
port us after marriage. 1 have not
told B not to marry. as / love him too
much to interfere with his happiness
What shall l do?
SISTER.
Perhaps your brother was Just en-
joying a little "hirtation" with this
girl. and now all of you. by taking
it so seriously, have put the idea of
marriage into his head. OF course
he is too young to marry, but some
day he will want a wife and home of
his own, and you must not take a
selfish attitude about it. A little tact
will help you put over your present
difficulty, but don't drive him to the
very step you don't want him to take
by making it seem too romantic to be
foregone. Your brother owes it to his
mother to think of her now.

DOGS ON THE BATTLEFIELD

ExperimentS made IN Lhe training
of dogs as messengers with the ar
mics in the field have, it Is stated.
given satisfactory results. The dogs
which have proved most receptive
under instruction are chiefly half
bred collies and retrievers. A rather
poor breed of bob-tailed sheepdog
has also done well. All have been
trained to perform their errands dur
ing heavy firing, both rifles and guns.
They can be fired over as easily as
the ordinary sporting dog. and, what
is quite another thing. they will face
fire at close range. Many have shown
amazing skill in getting over. under
and through all sorts of obstacles,
including wire.

Advice to the LoveIorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX

MAKING GOOD
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
A few weeks ago l met girl love
very much. She confessed her love
through letter which she sent me.
Everything was all right till 1 told
my past, which is not good one, but
a year ago l changed and have held
down good position. 1 am well liked
by my employers (who know my
easel.
The young lady says l may see her
once a week and become engaged
when l make good. This will take
a long time, as | am going to college
when l can.
IRVING,
My dear boy. If you want to give
years to study and education and
growth, don't you think a wife would
be pretty serious handicap? Four
years at college-perhaps two years
OF preparation; have you a right to
ask girl to wait so long. Now that
you have torn yourself away from
your former life and have felt the
stirring of ambition, wouldn't it be
better II you devoted yourself to work
Tor awhile? You know you want to
justify your employer, the good friend
who is helping you to live down your
past. Don't be foolish about the girl
Surely you would not want to cut her off
from all her friends and acquaintance
and have her sit waiting for you for
years. Think how you have changed
in the last year. You are going 20
continue growing and developing-do
you want to risk marriage in your
present state? Don't you think you
are likely to grow away from this
girl2 Be friends with her, but don't
try to bind her by any promises and
don't be selfish enough to take her
away from other friendships.

TEACHERS MEETING
AT FELLOWSHIP

The last meeting for the present
school year was held Saturday at Eel
lowship and from every standpoint it
was a splendid success.
The president of the association not
being present, nor the secretary, Sup
erintendent Brinson presided and Miss
Doke of the Ocala high school served
as secretary.
The first on the program was talk
by Mrs. William Hooker, and she held
the audience for quite good talk in
length in the closest attention. The
talk or address was full of informa-
tion and patriotic sentiment and prac-
tical suggestions as to the part that
the schools could play in the financing
of the war and other activities.
Then r. L. Turner spoke on "The
development of patriots through the
Schools" and brought forward the
pedagogical and psychological sides
of the topic and gave very full and
inspiring treatment of the subject.
Then one of those old-fashioned
Fellowship dinners was served and
there was no camouiaging about it.
1t was the real thing and heartily en-
joyed.
When the dinner and social hour
was over the crowd was called to-
gether to enjoy the address of Mr.. L.
w. Duval. He entered into quite a
full discussion of the history of the
development of the present state OF
the German mind and the conditions
leading up to the present war and the
impossibility of the United States re.
naming out and preserving SEM
blance of respectability. 1t was his
torical and full of information and in
spirational and just such an address
as we would expect from the talented
speaker.
Following Mr.. Duval Mr.. L. r. Cha
zal of Ocala made short but intense
ly patriotic address that received the
very closest attention.
The writer has never attended just
such an occasion before and all the
people, from the old ones down to the
youngest children, seemed to appre-
ciate the Importance and solemnity OF
the subject and the occasion and the
speakers received absolutely perfect
attention.
The association adjourned to meet
in Ocala on the Saturday following
the county board meeting in October
The address of welcome was made
in a short speech by Mr.. S. ]. Nc.
Gully, who before the converting OF
the association informed the writer
that six members of his family haC
been handed their diplomas of gradu
alton from the Fellowship school. A
remarkable record this is.

FORCE To THE LIMIT
AGAINST FORCE
BUT FORCE OF RIGHT SHALL CONQUER MIGHT,
SAID PRESIDENT WILSON At BALTIMORE
(Associated Press)

Baltimore, April president Viii
son, at a great Liberty Loan celebra-
tion here last night, gave Americas
answer to the German drive on the
western battlefront, to the renewed
propaganda for German-made peace,
and to all proposals to end the war
before Germany is awakened from
her dream of world domination.
The presidents answer was, Force,
force to the utmost, force without
stint or limit, righteous and triumph
ant force, which shall make right the
law of the world and cast every selfish
dominion down in dust"
After reviewing briefly the evidence
that Germany seeks peace that would
give her world dominion, the presi-
dent declared:
81 accept the challenge, know you
accept it. 1t will appear in the utter
sacrifice we shall give to redeem the
world and make it fit for free men
like ourselves to live in"
Warning that new triumph fol
Germany means ruin for the ideals
America has won and is living for,
the president reiterated that he was
willing to discuss any fair, just, hon
est peace, sincerely proposed.
"But the answer" he said, "when
/ proposed such a peace, came from
German commanders in Russia, and |
cannot mistake the meaning of the
answer.
"They are enjoying in Russia a
cheap triumph in which no brave or
gallant nation can long take pride.
A great people, helpless by their own
act, lies for time at their mercy.
Their fair professions are forgotten.
They nowhere set up justice, but
everywhere impose power and exploit
everything for their own use and ag-
grandizement and peoples of con-
quered provinces are invited to be
free under their dominion.
"Are we not justified in believing
they would do the same things at the
western front if they were not face
to face with armies whom their
countless divisions cannot overcome ?"
Former Governor Goldsborough, re-
publican, in introducing the president
declared that this is no time to criti-
cize the government but time for
everybody to get behind the flag.
The presidents audience was plain
ly with him in his denunciation OF
Germany's military masters. It ap-
plauded the declaration that he was
ready at any time to discuss just
peace, sincerely proposed, and when
the president declared that he accept
ed Germany's challenge, and that
force must decide the issue, the audi
ence arose. and cheered for several
minutes.
At the conclusion of the address
subscriptions opened for Liberty
Bonds. The Savings Bank of Balti.
more Immediately took a million dol
lars worth. Other large amounts
were subscribed.

to dictate any measures to them, let
US examine the results: AS far as
could be judged from the expressions
in the newspapers the advocates of
good roads seem to have joined forces
with those in favor of the abolition of
the convict lease system and public
sentiment seemed to crystalize in
favor of this means of establishing
good roads without increasing taxes.
In view of this general understanding
let us investigate what happened. We
relinquished $250,000 a year that we
were getting from the convicts and
without any public discussion we
launched upon the program of pur-
chasing and developing very large
state prison farm, with the result
that not taking into account the en-
hanced value of labor, we have prob
ably lost over a million dollars from
the hire of state convicts, and if un-
derstand the treasurer's reports, we
have probably spent over S500,0O0 in
connection with this farming enter
prise during the last four or five
years, and are probably spending
money on it now at the rate of ever
$1,000 a day, taking into account a
reasonable value for the service of
the convicts.
do not believe that there are a
hundred democrats in Marion county
who would have been in favor of the
abolition of the convict lease system
under these circumstances. The con-
victs are not being used on good
roads as we were promised. Taxes
have been greatly augmented, and il
am to judge of public sentiment,
will say that any legislator from
Marion county who voted in favor OF
this program, knowingly violated the
wishes of his constituents. These are
war times and vital national interests
are pressing US on every hand. / dc
not want to bore you or your readers
but | may have more to say TO Illus
trate not the need of new laws and
new issues, but the amendment anC
the repeal of lot of existing laws tc
the end that we may conserve oul
state resources as we are commended
| to do in our households.
Yours very truly,
! William Hooker.

NONE KILLED
TRIVIAL MATTERS
SHOULD BE TABOOED
Ocala, April 9th, 1918.


Editor Star: At time when this
nation is engaged in the most terrible
war that the world has ever witness
ed, and at time when it is apparent
that every resource of this vast repub-
lie must be taxed to the limit, and at
a time when every industry and every
vehicle of commerce in the civilized
world is being pushed to the highest
efficiency in the prosecution of this
world war, many of us look with spe-
cial regret upon the necessity for the
discussion of petty political questions
concerning our state. Almost every
voter is loathe to turn his attention
even for a moment, from the battle
fields of Europe and the work that he
may have in hand, to consider any
state issues, in view of the burdens
imposed upon US as party to this
great conflict. The hope was enter
tanned that our last, legislature would
evince some disposition to curtail ex-
penses in order that our citizens
might more easily respond to the
needs of the nation, but as the legis-
lature assumed a contrary course in
the face of our entry into this war
and as the primary now approaches,
feel it to be the duty of every citizen
to vote for no candidate for legisla-
tive Office who is not pledged to re.
trench in the matter of expense IN the
administration of state affairs.
Under the primary system we have
devoted too much attention to men anc
too little attention to measures ano
questions of policy. It is true thai
the ensuing primary promises to en-.
| tertain US with the "pros" and "cons'
of the woman suffrage question, the
"Catts" and "anti-Catts" question
and with debates on the "no-fence
law" and senators are to be weighed
! by the scale of the hog. But as we
are in the midst of war and conserva
| ton is acknowledged to be duty per
sonal to everyone of US, and few car
| be found to acknowledge that it ha!
been practiced by the Florida legisla
ture, it seems to me that this is tn.
time for every voter to demand tina
the candidate of his choice commi
himself in opposition to any expens'
not absolutely necessary to the ad
ministration of our state affairs, ant
pledge himself to vote in favor of tn
repeal and amendment of all existing
laws so far as may be necessary Il
carry this purpose into effect.
1t has seldom occurred under tn
! urinary system that we (the demo
| cratic voters), could give any rea
expression upon questions of policy
and merely to illustrate the vice
which follow from the lack of part,
platform we. might cite you to tn
laws which have been enacted for tn

protection of our hard surfaced road
ways. For some eight or ten years
our citizens have manifested the
greatest interest in hard roads, have
met, "resoluted" and passed various
and sundry laws giving extraordinary
powers and laying heavy taxes to ac-
complish the building of such roads.
For five or six years public sentiment,
SO far as one can judge without a
platform, has been unanimously in
favor of such improvements; and yet
we have no effective statute to pro-
tect any such road from demolition
by heavy teams, trucks or other
means. If man has vehicle with
smooth tires) it may fairly be said
that he is at liberty to destroy all the
hard surfaced roads in the state. He
may take heavy wagons or ten-ton
trucks over such roads practically at
pleasure if they have smooth tires,
and even corrugated tires are per-
mitted if of a certain width.
This only illustrates that the we'll
known views of majority of our
citizens have had no influence on the
Legislature, in the absence of party
platform. A cardinal illustration of
the same point is to be found upon
reference to the recent laws about
state convicts and the prison farm
and the legislation with respect to
these matters since 1911 has in my
view cost the state over million
dollars. Relying on the primary sys-
tenn and having no party platform
and being relegated merely to the
choice of the men and with no power
