Flying Start in Third Liberty Loan Now Settled Down to Long Stride With Results
The Baptist Meetings Continue.

|
All the services at the Baptist
church Sunday were well attend
ed. 1t was decided to continue
the special services through an
other week. Rev. j.. H. Benson
will be the preacher in charge,
in the absence of the pastor,
Rev. w. J. Gordon, who goes to
Stafford this morning to attend
the twenty-sixth annual meeting
of the Arizona Baptist conven-
tion, which will be in session at
Stafford from April 18th to April
18th.
Rev. C. A. Woody, D. D., LII.
D., of Portland, Ore, the super
intendent of the Pacific Coast
Division of the American Bap-
tist Home Missionary Society,
was a visitor at Nogales yester-
day, the guest of Pastor Gordon.
1t was anticipated that he would
preach at the meeting last
evening, but he could stay only
between trains, and that treat
was denied the congregation.
Reverend Benson conducted the
service.
Reverends Benson and Gordon
showed the visitor about the
town, and he was impressed
very greatly with the evidences
of growth and culture upon all
sides. He expressedbhimself as
gratified very greatly with the
progress made by the local Bap-
tist church, and it's efficiency in
the erection in so short a time
after organization of so hand
some a house of worship. The
gentleman noted the need Of a
parsonage and he intimated
that the Home Mission Society
will assist in building one if the
congregation will go about it.
The we'll known energy and per-
sistence Of the congregation is a
guaranty that the reverend gen.
tleman will be taken at his word,
and that assures another hand
some residence over on Cavalry
Hill.

 Dear Ma-We1l I am still alive and kicking, taking my three meals reg ular, cleaning up everything set in front Of me. I sent 8 letter to Ida the other day. If you got that it would relieve your mind as I imagine you wouldn't get much information from the government any more than was wounded. My wound is nothing ser ioas but nevertheless rather un- comfortable one. The shrapneI went in my left side and stopped just be- fore it got to my spine, which was lucky thing for me. You may blame it on the ring as unlucky but if you knew what I know. well you would mt have nothing to say. I am able to walk around with crutch and good stiff bandage around me. Tell my father l could just about throw a quart can of milk on the train now.
 We'll wished you could have seen me when got to the hospital, a weeks bead all full of mud and mud all over. Well. I uess I was a sight. didn't know myself in locking glass. I have cleaned up and look like a regular fellow now One thing am having a good rest which doesn't go bad at ali. {
 I don't know when I will get any mail now as I am away from the company but when I do, expect to get a bunch of it. I am in hopes that the letter with the pictures doesn't go astray. I have lost practically all my belongings except a pen I had in my pockets. l have the watch still and guess I will bring it home with me when I come which I expect will be soon.
 The Red Cross is doing wonderful work here, giving cigarettes, candy and gum, besides the many comforts they are able to do for you. I am waiting to get my wound dressed and then am going outside in the sun which is shining for wonder. You see the sun here about as often as the moon fuils.

HOW OCALA SHOULD
TREAT COPPERHEADS

Owing to the remarks made by a
certain citizen, already referred 10 IN
the Star. who designated the Ameri-
can army in France as gang Of
tramps, and manifested great citation
over the report that German guns
were killing French women and chill
dren in Paris, the treatment of cop
perheads has furnished some subject
for discussion among our people. AL
most all say that any such person
should be jailed. and good many
favor the hickory bark tea treatment.
If there was any considerable num-
Der of copperheads in Ocala, the Star
would lead a crusade against them
would lead it with a gun if necessary.
There are, however, comparatively
few of the reptiles in this community,
and they are almost harmless. They
are all politically and socially dead,
and one is physically dead, but is too
internally stingy to pay an under
taker to bury him.
AS for the man who made the latest
outbreak, the Star isn't sure but
what he is more entitled to pity than
censure. He may have brooded over
his fancied wrongs until he is at
least partly irresponsible. 1t is diff
cult for us to believe that a man who
has children of his own can be in his
sober senses if he is glad to know
that women and children, even in an
enemy country, are being murdered
without a chance either of defense OF
escape. It's our opinion that If any
legal proceedings are taken against
him it should be in the form of a
commission to inquire into his sanity
and if such commission decides that
| he should not be sent to a lunatic asy-
lum, then loyal men and women should
strictly ignore him. If he can have
no communication except with other
lcopperheads, he will be darned lone.

There is manifest in some quarters
an impotence because the auditors
report on city finances has not been
published, coupled with the insinua-
ton that it would have been had not
something been wrong. The auditors
report was made at the last meeting
of the council and referred to the
proper committee, which will report
or it tonight. This is all right and
regular, as any person acquainted
with the usual procedure should
know. We think the auditors report
should be printed and it probably
will, but it is very lengthy one-it
will take up several newspaper col
umns, and the city papers don't
think it should be required of them to
print it for nothing. And the council
may think it an useless expenditure
to print it, when it is on file at the
clerks office. any any citizen can see
it. When it is printed. if it is print
ed, it's the Stars opinion that the
people who are so anxiously hoping
for evidence of incompetence and dis
honesty in the city government will
be sadly disappointed.

Four years ago, the Mexicans tore
down the statue of Washington In
Mexico City, and Americans generally
denounced the meanness and childish
ness of the Mexicans. Now, a member
of the Senate has introduced bill
into Congress to the effect that the
statue of Frederick the Great in
Washington be pulled down and melt
ed into ammunition. Americans
should not initiate the childishness of
Mexicans. Frederick the Great was a
friend to America, and his statue
should stand. not only as a tribute to
his friendship but as a proof that our
own nation is intelligent and broad
minded. Pulling down statue of
George III. and melting it into bull
lets during the revolutigh was both
sensible and timely, but strafng a
man who lived century or more ago
for what his descendants are doing
now is as silly as strafing the people
of today for what their ancestors did
far back in the dim past.

Va, caused by pneumonia.
Mr.. Engleby and his family lived in
Ocala several years and were active

Roanoke to attend the funeral.
