Capt H. C. Dozier, who reached the
city yesterday, from one of the big
army hospitals in the north, has Sc
cured his discharge and will at once
resume the practice of his profession.
DR.. Dozier did not know until a few
days before starting for home that
he could obtain discharge, and he as
well as his friends are feeling good
over the fact that he will not have to
return to the service during this war
at least. He was around town this
morning meeting and receiving the
of his friends. DIR.
Dozier was present at the Temple last
hight when the government films IL
Illustrative of hospital and vocational
work were run. and explained the
latter to the audience These two films
were interesting, and the doctors ex-
plantations made them more so. 1t is
truly a noble work that our govern
nent is doing for those who have
suffered in its service.

Ocala people, among whom Ray Bull

little boy, was one of the Stars
carrier boys, and very faithful one.
He was catcher on Charlie Hunters
famous baseball team. and when he
became old enough to go into business
entered the service of the Southern
Express Company, with which he was
engaged when war began. In August,
1917, Ray left the express company
to enlist in Company A, with which
he went to Camp Wheeler. After
training a few months he was trans
ferred to another command, which
was sent to the northwest and was
preparing to embark for Siberia when
the armistice was signed. Private
Bullock had become Sergeant Bullock,
and held that rank when discharged.
He promptly resumed his position
with the express company. of which
he is a trusted and efficient employee.
He and his fiarce have the best wishes
of their Ocala friends.
