DIR. w. P. WILSON

Genuine and sincere were the ex-
pressions of regret and sorrow when
the news was flashed over town that
the gentle spirit of DR.. w. P. Wilson
had gone out with the tide to that
land from which no traveller returns.
DR.. Wilson was the father of Mrs.
E. L. Carney, a well known resident
of this city, and had made his home
here for many winters. This winter he
had not been in his usual health, al
though he had not been confined to
his bed, and all hoped with returning
spring and warm summer days he
would regain his accustomed health.
This morning DR.. Wilson failing to
arise at his accustomed time, they
thought him sleeping, but on entering
the room the second time they found
that he had passed away in his sleep.
A passing physician was called in and
it was found that he was beyond med
lcal assistance. and had been dead
probably two hours.
DR.. Wilson was a gentle and court
ly gentleman who had endeared him
self to all who knew him. While he
had passed beyond his allotted time of
three score years and ten, the addi-
tional years had not weighed upon
him, as his spirit and mind were
young and active, in all that pertain
ed to the welfare of his fellow men.
His loss will be felt not only in his
| family and immediate circle of friends
but by the community at large.
He leaves to mourn his death three
daughters, Mrs. Scott of Savannah,
Mrs. Mimms of Kentucky and Mrs.
Carney of this city.
McIver & MacKay have prepared
the body for shipment to Kentucky,
where the remains will be placed in
the family burial ground beside those
of his wife, who preceded him some
few years ago.
! The Star extends its sympathy to
the bereaved family, to Mr.. and Mrs.
Carney in this their hour of trial and
sorrow.

Tallahassee, May 22.-State High
way Engineer Cooke got word at six
o'clock last night that SO new trucks,
first of Florida's allotment for road
building purposes from the war de-
partment are now available and ask
ing for shipping instructions. The
trucks will be sent to Jacksonville and
distributed to counties where needed
from there.
This is the first installment of fed
eral aid, but it is not part of the allot-
ment of $2,818,000 which the state
must match. This is supplementary
aid and is sent in advance because the
federal government is confident the
state will meet federal aid. If 1T
should fail Mr.. Cooke is apprehensive
that trucks would be withdrawn for
trucks are sent only to federal aid
states. This is not all that the fed
eral government will furnish in this
way, other trucks, steam shovels,
tents, harness and much other equip
ment being available when needed
The trucks which are now on the way
are estimated as worth $4,000. The
principal item is AZ Nash two-ton

of the more progressive schools Of the
state have already heightened the
term for all grades, and it appears 70
be essential that unless Ocala's
schools are to compare unfavorably
with others Of their rank the high
school department term must -
heightened next year as indicated.
Ocala school have other important
needs which must be supplied some
time in the future, but this report Ia
intended to deal with only such mat
ters as must have immediate atten-
tion, not for the purpose Of improv-
ing the efficiency and comparative
standard of Ocala schools. but 70
maintain their present relative posi-
tion and past standard Of service.
We estimate that this necessary in
crease in salaries and extra four
weeks in the high school department
term, and this additional equipments
will require the expenditure next
year of about $500 for Ocala schools
more than was spent this year. The
levy for school taxes for the vezr
coming to a close was all that the Law
allowed for both the school district
and the county, and the receipts and
expenditures are about equal. Since
this levy was made, however, q con
stitutional amendment has been
adopted which authorizes boards OF
public instruction to add an additional
three-mill school tax which, we are
informed, would barely yield IN taxes
sufficient revenue to meet these IN
creased expenses.
We are not unmindful Of the fact
that we are a committee Of the Mar

It would be proper that we inquiru

be levied throughout the county and
these additional funds cannot iniuru
the country schools. II there should
be any surplus from this additional
millage, the balance could be auDIied
on the county school Indebtedness.
We are confident that there = u.
other means by which these urgent
needs in the Ocala schools can be nro.
