OF VITAL INTEREST TO ocALA

The following letter has been re-
ceived by the secretary of the board
of trade, and should have immediate
attention by every merchant of this
city. This is a matter of Importance
and it is imperative that we have rep
resentative men at this conference to
take care of our interest: The letter
is as follows:
Board of Trade, Ocala, Fla:
Gentlemen: The commissioners
have just returned from Washington,
where they had a conference with
railroad commissioners from all the
states, and with Director General of
Railroads McAdoo and his advisers,
with reference to his recent order No.
%, advancing freight rates, which
purports to make an advance of %
per cent, but which in reality makes
an advance of from 25 to 400 per
cent.
In order to secure necessary modi-
fications we must act quickly, and de-
sire conference in the board of
trade rooms, Jacksonville, at 10 a. m.
Thursday, June 18th, with two or
three representative citizens of your
section who have comprehensive
knowledge of commercial conditions,
agriculture and horticulture.
The director general has designated
Judge Prouty of his advisory board
to receive, hear and report on modi-
fications to be presented through state
railroad commissions.
This is an important matter, and
the attendance of representative men
from your section is imperative, as
the order takes effect June 25th.
Yours very truly,

SPECIALIZED CLERKS
URGENTLY NEEDED

Washington, June 11.-Expert c1er-
ical work has more important place
in the governments war organiza-
tion than most people realize. We all
know that the war can not be won in
the trenches alone; that an effective
establishment at home is vital to the
success of the biggest job ever un-
dertaken by any nation; but the full
extent to which the specialized clerk
is needed is perhaps not generally uil
derstood. And it is in this class of
work that women have the best op-
portunity to be of real service to the
government at this time.
In the national capital alone the
civilian force increased from 10000
to nearly $4,000 during the first year
of our participation in the war; Nine
tenths of the new employees are
clerks of one kind or another, and
fully three-fourths of them are wom-
en-. $4,000 stenographers and typists
are at work constantly In the govern
ment offices at Washington on the
tons of correspondence made neces-
sary by war preparations on a scale
such as the world has never before
known.
General clerks. that is, those with
out a specialize. are not difficult to OBJ
tain even under present conditions,
but the United States Civil Service
Commission, charged with the duty
of recruiting the civil service to meet
war needs, is experiencing difficulty in
obtaining sufficient number of appli-
cations for many clerical positions
which require special training or ex-
perience. There is an urgent call for
applicants for the positions of steno-
grapher, typewriter, bookkeeper and
typewriter, clerk and bookkeeper, cost
accountant, accounting and statistical
clerk, statistician, clerk qualified in
accounting, clerk qualified in business
administration, index and catalogue
clerk, and assistant to business man.

A STATEMENT BY
THE OCALA TRUSTEES

That part of the minutes of the
board of public instruction relating to
the visit of the Ocala trustees is
probably not explicit enough to be
quite clear.
The Ocala trustees, accompanied
by Prof Cassels, asked for a continu-
alton of music in the schools, as the
try-out last year had proved most
successful. They also requested an
increase of salary for the primary
and grade teachers who have taught
several years with satisfactory re-
suits.
The county board admitted the
worthiness of these requests, but de-
clared it was absolutely financially
unable to make further appropria-
tions. The secretary suggested the
temporary discontinuance of the do
mestic science department, and the
trustees were assured if they agreed
upon this, for temporary relief, they
would be allowed the same budget as
last year, with the privilege of re-
arranging it to admit the proposed
increase in salaries.
1t was not a question of substitut-
ing music for domestic science, for
the domestic science department costs
twice as much as music under the
special arrangement for half the time
of the latter teacher.
The trustees then met, and after
careful planning and reapportioning,
found they could make the increase in
salaries, and also continue the music.
If it had been necessary to import a
teacher of public school music, and
pay her for full time, this would not
have been possible, but there was the
opportunity to secure the services of
a resident teacher, who has private
class to supplement her salary, and
the trustees believe that the patrons
viii agree that music will be of more
benefit and pleasure to the whole
school than any other thing that
might be had for the amount of mon
ey expended. 1t extends throughout
the primary school, including the
teachers, through all the grades and
high school, with glee club and chorus
work, and includes both girls and
boys.
When domestic science was put in
the school, it was made an elective
Subject, with the consequence that the
girls have never taken advantage of
it to the extent of the full time of the
teacher When it is reinstated, this
board of trustees will certainly rec
ommend that it be made compulsory
in certain grades. The trustees and
the county board realize the value of
this department ,and also the justice
and necessity for better salaries, If
our schools are not to be subjected to
the necessity of taking the leftover
teachers from other counties that can
afford to be Discriminating, but our
income for the maintenance of the
schools is no greater than it was sew
eral years ago, when the cost of liv-
ing was about half what it is now.
The trustees hope the patrons win
understand that they are IN the posi-
tion of being allowed very little dis
cretion in the matter of the schools
that it is question Of keeping the

EXPERIENCES OF A NEGRO
SOLDIER IN FRANCE
Stanford Herald)

Wednesday night at the colored
high school a vast audience of col
ored people and several white listen
ed with interest to the talk of Pri-
vate Thompson, a colored soldier of
the 18th artillery who has seen ac-
tive service in France and who is now
only home temporarily on invalided
furlough.
Private Thompson's home is in
Daytona and at the first call volun-
teered and within short time found
himself in France, having gone across
several months ago on the PresidenI
Lincoln, which has since been sunk by
submarine. He came to Sanford at
the request of Prof. Crooms, who had
heard him in Daytona and his mission
was truly one of patriotism TO tell his
people first hand of conditions as they
really are.
He had story to tell and told it
well. He is not an orator, but bet
ter still he is a soldier of experience,
imbued with the idea Of Americanism
and in his own words denounces any
one W no attempts to thwart the al
lied cause or disparage the aims of
our government. He urged his hear
ers to report white or black who tried
to scatter German propaganda and in
answer to a question from the audi
ence as to what should be done with
those guilty of such work replied,
Hanging is an honor to them; they
ought to be burned"
Private Thompson claimed no glory
for himself nor for any individual. He
spoke merely as a loyal American
who had been in the trenches for
many days fighting to uphold his flag
and his country's honor. He paid q
glowing tribute to the American Red
Cross, telling his hearers that the big
Red Cross looked for khaki uniforms,
not faces, and that the treatment for
white and black soldiers was Just
alike. He urged colored people and,
in fact, all present, to throw aside
their ideas about this or that and get
down to business. "What you give to
the Red Cross" remarked this SOL
der, "is the best gift you ever made. /"
In concluding his speech he told his
hearers that he was going back to the
front and that if he was killed there
he would die with the satisfaction of
knowing that he had died fighting un-
der the American flag.

against almost overwhelming odds.
They wish to state that every effort
is being made to engage a science
teacher who will be able to conduct a
few classes of domestic science, for
any girls who would be able to COM
plete the course this year, and thai
there will be lessons and demonstra-
tions throughout the year by govern
ment workers and volunteers.
1t is probably not out of place to
state that the high school was last
year reinstated on the list of the
Southern Association of Accredited
High Schools, and was off of it but
one year, and that because Of the
qualification that provides that Is
per cent of the high school teachers
must have degrees from some college
of certain rating. That year the high
school enrolment exceeded all ex-
pectations, and extra teachers had to
be provided. It was a case of emerg-
ency, and the principal did the best
he could under the circumstances.
In consideration of these problems
and conditions, and because Marion
county does not wish to go over the
top in all else and leave her schools
in the trenches, we hope the citizens
