In 1913 we sold straw
hats at 1917 prices-pretty
good in view of the war
But we saw what was
coming. Got in our orders
for this Spring early last
Spring - a whole year
ahead. Bought literally.
AS most of our GUS
toners know, our policy is
always to base selling
prices on actual costs.
There you are!
Our this years prices on
straws average an increase
over two years ago, quality
for quality, of just about
half a dollar-and today,
to pay only a half dollar
more than two years ago,
seems to most of us like
saving much money.
Splits, Sennets, Mackin-
avs, Milans, Bangkoks,
Leghorns and Panamas.
So to $1oo-and your
moneyback if you want it.

Once upon time, as all good jokes
start, there was boy named John
Jones, and John was a good boy and
hated all feminine gender, except one
very pretty little girl, and Johns girl
loved him about as much as he loved
her. They must have loved each other
a good deal). So one clear. moonlight
night, John thought he would take his
beloved to church. The carriage was
small and when two sat IN the same
seat it made very close quarters. So
when they started home John realized
how close he was to her and how pref
ty she was, and he wanted to make mp
his mind to ask her to marry him, but
every time he started to a big lump
of air came in his throat. Finally,
after swallowing several Jumps of air
he managed to spring the word. and
she Immediately answered him yes,
and then he became as silent as q
rock and so did she, but after they
had gone few miles longer, she ask
ed, "Why don't you say something ?"
ard then he answered, "I've done said
too much now"

There was young elephant who lived
In town,
And she worked and worked the,
whole year round,
She put her foot In her tent and she
put it out,
But she couldn't find room for her big
old snout.
Sometimes she was all diked out in
laces,
Because she had won In the races;
over her,
And it made her think she had on fur.
She did this and she did that,
But she couldn't learn how to tat.
SO one day this young elephant said,
Il believe will cut off my head"

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Edited by. the SENIOR Glass;
The high school received an unex-
pected gift few days ago. Sidney
Perry presented a very pretty dull
brass bugle to the high school depart
ment, but we all realized that she
really had the military company in
mind. Nevertheless. we appreciated
the gift and shall enjoy hearing it
used as soon as the efficient bugler,"
Wilfred Harold, feels that he can per-
form in public. Sidney is what we
call loyal aumna.
People will soon realize that We
have a high school in Ocala if our
students continue to represent us so
worthily in affairs of public interest.
The programs during the art exhibit
at the Woman's Club were highly
creditable to the performers, many of
whom were high school students.
Among those students who took part
in the programs were Marguerite Ed
wards, Kathleen Leitner, Grace Pal
mer, Catherine Henry. Ullaine Bar
nett, Elizabeth Hooker, Rhoda Thorn
as and Mary Lane.
The 29th of the month will be the
anniversary of the day that our be-
loved Prof. Henderson left to join
the army Y: M. C. A. He is now In
France and altho' he was in the fight
| ing we feel sure that he has done his
bit to the best of his ability. No
doubt he has many lonely moments
and in order TO tighten some of them,
we propose that the day of his de-
parture be commemorated by each of
us sending letter or postcard. How
many are willing to do that? His
address is Sixteenth Sanitary Squad,
American Army P. o. 121, Dion,
France.
Commissioned officers of the battal-
ion do not have to march with the line
any more, but are allowed to come up
at their own pleasure.
The senior privileges have contain
/ ly fed. I'm former years, seniors
were exempted from literary pro-
grams after Christmas, but now even
that privilege is gone. It departed
with the literary society.
Leonard Todd, last years grad
uate, now of Florida University, was

THE PEOPLES OF WESTERN
ASIA
The Armenians

Armenia was the first nation TO en-
brace Christianity as a national re-
ligon. Apostles Thaddeus and Bar
tholomew preached the gospel there.
The Armenian Church has had l37
POutiffs in unbrokeu succession.
whose seat, since 800 with occasional
transfers elsewhere has been at Fitch
miadzin, the Great Monastery in Rus
sian Armenia.
OF the estimated 100000 Ar
meuians Gin 1879 100000 lived in
Turkey, about 100000 in Russian
Armenia, and the remainder were
scattered over the world
In Turkey despite the oppressive
and obstructive rule, the Armenans
have been one OF the principal con
structtye forces
The Syria
Syria occupies a strategic POSITION
in the map OF the old world. being
connecting link, bridge, as it were
between Europe Asia and Africa
Syria is the birthplace OF two Mono
theistic religions Judaism and Chr
,ianity, and is closely related to the
birth and development Of third.
Mohammedanism.
The country has five provinces;
Aleppo, one of whose cities j.
Antioch; Damascus, whose capital by
the same name is reputcd to he the
oldest city in the world; the Lebanon,
famous for its cedar trees. Beirut
whose capital by the same name is the
seaport OF Syria, and Jerusalem.
The Greeks.
The Greeks in Turkey are confined
mostly to the shores of Asia Minor
and the adjacent islands. They are
direct descendants of the Greeks who
held sway in Constantinople until its
capture by the Mohammedans in 1883
They number in Turkey about five
millions, speak Greek and profess
Orthodox Christianity. The Greek
element is one of the most progress
i've elements in Turkey and controls
the finances OF the empire
The Assyrians.
The Assyrian Christians inhabit a
portion of the territory known to
ancient history as Assyria, including
part of NJ esopotamia, Kurdistan and
northwestern Persia, They are also
sometimes designated HISTORIANS
Syrac is their mother tongue They
number about 100000 persons. 1t was
Assyrian missionaries who carried the
gospel of Christ to Arabia, India and
China. The Occident is indebted to
this church for preserving the divine
message and transmitting it to the
modern world.
The Jews.
The historical status of the Jews
and their contributions to the civiliza-
ton are we'll known. A great many
of the inhabitants of Palestine and
Syria are Jewish.

SELL CHILDREN TO SAVE
THEM

Women are selling their chill
dren to save them from starvation
according to q recent report re-
ceived from Persia. The report
follows:
Typhoid and typhus are ter
ribly prevalent. The camels who
bring in our bags of rice kneel
down and eat greedily the raw
grains that leak out of the sacks.
Women who get rice eat some
of it raw. A laborer came in two
days ago and said: Please give
me some rice to chew. I am so
weak. I have had nothing since
last night. I get thirty cents a
day and I have a wife and chill
dren. My wages will only buy a
pound and half of bread. l am
faint with hunger" He got
handful of rice and put some into
his mouth and commenced to
chew while he dug feebly with his
shovel.

when I left Constantinople, owing
to the breaking of diplomatic relations
with Turkey, the work of relief car
ried on by the American Committee
for Armenian and Syrian Relief was
SO thoroughly organized that arrange

that work in every department, even
in the absence of the Embassy and the
United States Consuls at different
points in the country. The work is
now being carried on effectively at all
of the centers under increasing friend
illness on the part of the Turkish Of
