VIOLATIONS TO
 BE MADE GOOD
COUNCIL WILL FORGE GERMANY TO MAKE FOOD VIOLATIONS
 OF ARMISTICE

PARIS, Nov. l. (P) After dis cussing several violations of the arm istice provisions by Germany and listening to Germany's explanations, the supreme council of the allies to- day announced that Germany will have to make good these violations. Official notification of this decision has been forwarded to the German government As a result of this, the Germans will be compelled to turn over much rolling stock to the al lies, to replace her sunken ships by other articles of commodity value and be penalized for her failure to effect the withdrawal of German forces from the Baltic provinces of Russia.

FROM A SCIENTIST

A rcent issue of the Monthly Weather Review contains an article by Prof. c. F. Marvin, Chief of the Weather Bureau on Terrestrial Weather and Solar Activities" and MT. Summers submits the following quotation therefrom:
 The atmosphere derives its heat, not directly from the sun except to a small extent, but chiefly from the surface of the earth itself The daily sequence of sunshine and darkness; the varied distribution of clear and clOuded skies; diVersities of surface cover added to contrasts oi land and water areas, including the phenomena of evaporation, con densation and precipitation; the cycle ot the season, and above all the fluctuating but nevertheless perpetual contrasts of surface temperatures, ranging all the way from the heat of the tropics to the intense cold of the polar zones, constitute com plex series of varied and changeable influences seemingly abundantly ade- quate to cause and explain every fea- ture of our weather conditions, how ever changeable we may find them
 Seemingly with little regard for the considerations just mentioned many have sought and still seek to ascribe terrestrial weather-that is to say, all the characteristic features of atmospheric variations minor features of solar activity, as for ex- ample, to the spots and faculae Of the sun or to it's magnetic manifesto

GOns, or to the relatively small and irregular fluctuations in the intensity of it's thermal radiations, or to some Of these yariously in combination, etc.
 Even suppose these solar phe- nomena directly influence terrestrial weather in some way yet to bc prov d, is it not plainly most essential in detecting and analyzing cause and effect relations that We adequately scsregate and make due allowance for the complex phenomena which clearly must result if solar insolation were perfectly constant and if the other manifestations of solar actiy- itg were entirely absent?"
The daily Alaska citizen., 1919-11-02

That the dissemination ol the eN- Icme views held by some persons on the results ot an unusual grouping oI the planets with respect 10 each other and 10 the sun can serve no useful purpose, is the opinion of NJ. l.. Summers, in charge ot the local weather bureau office.
 On the contrary, he says that the publication of such articles as the one that appeared in a recent issue ol Tine Empire, giving a forecast ot dire happenings to Mother Earth from December l1 to 20, arouses un- necessary apprehension, worry and fear in minds ot the superstiuous and ot many of those who have no knowl- edge ot the operations of natural laws relating to weather conditions on the earth

 ABOUT HALLEYS COMEI
 In every community, he said, there are those who seize upon sensational prophetic statements and work them selves into a high state Of nervous excitement ill anticipation ot the luIulImenJ oI the prophecy.
 Iu..y'a comet, few years ago, furnish the basis for much specula- tion d. 10 the effect o1 its tail strik- ius the earth, and not few saw visions of the asphyAiajins of all animal life when tine phenomenon would occur.
 Every now and then some religious fanatic considers it his bounden duty lo cuIighteu hia fellow men that he has figured out from Biblical pro pEecy and historical and current events that the world is due to come to an end on such and such day Instances are on record of persons dI.posing of their poperty and pa uantIy waiting for the coming of the end aa d result of such prophecies. PLANET GROUPING NOT UNUSUAL
 If this unusual grouping of the planets will cuaae such abnormaities in terrestrial weather, why, says MT. Summers, has the world at large been kept in ignorance of it until within d few weeks of the period in which the events ale to occur?
 Astronomy is one of the most eX- act of the sciences, and the date of the conjunction and opposition of the planets in this instance, as in others has been known among astronomers for generations. the same as the dates of ecIip5cs and other events in the life of our solar system. 1t seems strange that under these cir cumstances We should not have been warned until the catacyIsm is al most upon us,

ABOUT SUNSPOTS

That the gTayitatiOnal pull of so many planets in conjunction will pro duce giant sunspot may be true, but it does not necessarily follow that the sunspot will produce the strenuous weather oI which We have been so sensauonally warned, Ter restIial magnetic disturbances and storms are common to sunspOta, and auroras, or northern lights, being an example. But magnetic storms and wind and rain storms are entirely different phenomena.
 When We consider that the earth, said Mr Summers, as viewed by an observer on the sun, would be so small that it would be invisible to the unaided eye, it seems most un- reasonable to think that the sunspot influence on our weather, if it exists to any material extent, should be confined to any particular part of this Gas seen from the sum micro scopic surface, such as California, or Alaska, or Brazil, or Central Europe The simultaneous occurrence of yio- lent wind or rain storms turnout the earth's surface, or even in all regions in the same latitude, would indeed be most extraordinary and d feat of nature that weather records show has not occurred from past sun spot manifestations of great intens- itV

sold in Marion county this summer
than at any time during the present
decade.
There is some hesitancy about
building because Of the fact that war
times and pre-war rentals are not
large enough to assure the investor
of a reasonable return on his money
in view Of the increased cost of ma
terials. 1t is believed, however, that
modern bungalows or apartments are
in such demand that higher rentals
wolld be received for houses and
apartments of attractive and modern
design and conveniences. There is
not hesitancy evident about paying
the highest price for other things.

MURDER OF FORM
Err OCALA MAN

Last Sunday night in Jacksonville
DR.. J. Fl. Pittmann, formerly of this
city, and his wife and daughter came
very near to being shot to death by
Joe Hunter West, one of the best
known young men of Jacksonville
and warm friend of DR.. Pittm2nn.
The young man gained an entrance
to the Pittmann home and without
warning began shooting up the house
and firing at DR.. Pittmann and his
family. The shots drew many to the
scene and the young man was finally
overpowered and put in Jail. He la.
ter tried to kill the jailer by hitting
him over the head with bottle. The
next day young West was released on
bond and that night again went 20
the home of DR.. Pittmann and again
began shooting up things but fortu-
nately this time DIR. Pittmann and
family were away from home. West
was again overpowered and put in
Jail again, where he will be kept for
safe keeping. DR.. Pittmann is at a
loss to understand these attacks on
him as he considered West one of
his best friends.
1t is said that young West is labor
ing under the delusion that some one
is trying to poison him in order to
secure the fortune left hm by his
father, the late Eugene E. West.

If our people generally knew that

hogs are residents and products of
Marion county, and also knew what
they are and how they look, they
would beign to make a noise about
it.
Saw them this week and it was
just like going to the Illinois State
Fair.
If you want to put confidence into
Banner readers, get them to attend
the public sale of hogs at the Her
long Farm, just south of Micanopy
on September II, next Wednesday.
1t will do them good to see the sight
whether they want to buy pig or

AIRPLANE WRECKED
AND BURNED HERE

The Curtiss government airplane
in commands of Lieut.. Paul HaffneT
and Lieut.. l.. B. Cundiff, of CarlstrOm
field burned to ashes on the landing
field at the golf links in this city at
an early hour Monday afternoon. The
plane arrived in the city Monday
morning and was starting back to
Arcadia when the accident occurred.
Just as the machine was in the act
of taking off and when only a few
feet in the air il hit a tree and fell
to the ground and was soon in ashes.
Liuet Cundif had no difficulty in
getting out of the machine, but the
pilot, Lieut.. Haffner, was badly burn
ed although not seriously, but had it
not been for the quickness and c0ur
age of Lieut. Cundiff in pulling hiTa
from the Burning machine he would
have. probably been terribly burned
and possibly fatally. He is now at
the hospital. Lieut. Haffner is a
stranger in 0cala, but Lieut.. Cundin
is well known in OcaEa. The accident
that destroyed this machine is very
greatly regretted by everyone here,
but the friends of these two young
lieuteuants are delighted that they
ESCAPED without fatal injuries.

MORE HOUSES ARE
NEEDED in OCALA

The housing problem in ocala has
reached an acute stage. It has be-
come increasingly difficult to find
residence properties in this city. The
problem affects not only those from
the outside seeking homes for the
winter, but the year round population
of the. city. Either new houses or
apartments must be built immediate.
ly or there must be considerable rem
ovating or old properties. The de-
mand is for houses of moderate size
and of desirable appearance and con-
venience.
In order that as close an estimate
as possibly may be had Of the city's
facilities for taking care of it's pres,
ent population and of the new peo-
pie that are daily moving into the
city and of the winter visitors that
are expected to flow into Florida this
winter in numbers greater than ever
before, the secretary Of the board Of
trade desires to compile a list of all
residence properties, apartments and
rooms that are for rent. Owners OF
properties and private families hav>
ing rooms or suites Of rooms for rent
are urgently requested to send to the
board of trade list of the same. The
secretary of the board of trade asks
property owners and private families
please to furnish him in writing a. list
of these houses, apartments and
rooms. Please give the street and
house number in your communication
to the secretary. Give a full descrip-
tiOn of the house, apartment or room
whether furnished or unfurnished,
and their desirability and convenien-
ces. State the number and kind of
rooms. If you have rooms or suites
of rooms, state whether you take ta-
bic boarders also or whether table
board can be obtained near by. Give
the rent asked by the month or week
and any. condition under which the
properties or rooms may be rented.
All of this information will be plac>
ed on file in the board of trade room
in the Ocala House block for the con-
venience of all concerned. People
have been coming to Florida all sum-
mer and from now on it is expected
that the number of visitors and home
seekers will increase. The housing
problem is one affecting not only
Ocala, but the entire state and the
United States as well. Government
experts have estimated that shortage
OF houses in the country TO be from
five hundred thousand to a million.
The high cost of building materials.
of coal, and of living in general are
causing many to look TO the south and
especially to Florida for homes. In
the middle west farm lands are sell
ing from three to six hundred dollars
an acre. Midlle western farmers are
moving into Georgia and the Caro-
linas and other south Atlantic states
and farmers from these states as,
well as some from the middle wes-
tern states, are moving into Florida.
More farm lands have probably been

EVERY HOUSE In KEY WEST
INJURED BY RECENT STORM

Key West, Sept. 10.-Not a house
in this city escaped injury in the hur-
ricane that swept over Key West
last night Three hundred and twen-
ty houses, most Of them frame build
ings, were practically razed. Two
church edifices were wrecked.
In the main part of the city FIVE re-
tail store buildings were tipped over
as though part Of a card pack.
Plate glass windows in many store
buildings were blown in by the force
Of the wind and stocks of goods ruin
ed by the water. So far as is known
there was no loss of life in the city
proper, nor is there any report OF
persons seriously injured despite the
flying debris, but the steamer Gram
pus, with a crew Of fourteen men,
sank in the harbor.
The federal building was badly
damaged by the storm.
Conservative estimates place the
property loss at not less than two
million dollars.
The storm has abated, but the wind
still is brisk There is little news
from the islands between here and
the mainland. Unverified reports say
Big Pine Key was swept clean by the
storm with some loss of life.
