Y. M. C. A. WORK
Plans Made for a County Organiza-
ton of this Most Useful and
Helpful Organization

A very interesting session of a
representative group of men from all
over Marion county was held in the
board of trade rooms in Ocala last
Wednesday afternoon.
Mr.. j. H. Taylor, who is chairman
Of the committee for the organization
of county Y M. c. A. presented
plans and details for carrying out
the campaign for the funds for this
organization. o. E. Maple, state Sec
retary, Jacksonville, and S. X. Hunt,
field secretary for central Florida,
were present and explained the nature
and work of county Y. M. c. A.
In view of the Importance of this
movement for the welfare of the boys
and young men of Marion county Mr..
Taylor gives out some interesting in
foramtion concerning the plans of the
county Y. M. c. A. "This phase of
the great organization" says Mr..
Taylor, "is not new but has been in
existence since 1875. The develop
ment has been slower than that along
the lines of city and college organi-
2ation but its method of work in all
these years has been so thoroughly
tried out that it is no longer an ex-
pertinent. In the last three or four
years the spread of the county Y. M.
c. A. has been almost marvellous and
the greatest period of development
has been since war was declared in
1914. At the present time the state
of Maine has undertaken the largest
program of county organization of
any state in the Union. In one large
campaign they are raising $3.50, 900
for the entire state, which includes
funds for local organization in six
teen counties.
Marion county business men are
thinking seriously these days of re-
adjusting" continued Mr.. Taylor
"a 'out our obligations to the boys of
cur various communities. We have
very wisely thought seriously about
material development of our county
and have very patriotically given
generously to the great war move
ments during the past two years but
there is no doubt in the minds of
those who are thinking seriously
about the boy problems of the day
that the time is now come for Us to
make a forward movement for the
welfare of our home boys. This cam
paign in Marion county for funds for
a county Y. NJ. C.. A. is entirely a
home work campaign. The money
will be raised, collected and entirely

will have full authority for the man.

ANOTHER BRANCH OF
AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY

Maxwell Factory Takes the Lead In
Employees Welfare Movement and
Makes Half a Thousand Returned
Returned SOldies Nucleus for So
cial Activities.
Detroit, April 5.-There is a per-
sistent movement among the great
manufacturing plants here to give
more serious attention to the welfare
and congenial surroundings of their
employees.
This is partly as a reward for the
heroic achievements of labor during
eighteen months of war work and
partly to bring employer and en-
pioyee on a more friendly basis. The
Maxwell Motor Co. is taking a very
active interest in this new era of mu-
tual welfare.
"There was a time when the pres
ident of an automobile factory knew
every foreman and many of the men
in his plant. That was about ten
years ago. Today the industry has
swept to such unexpected limits that
ninety per cent on the payroll do not
know the general manager to see
him." This was the statement of w.
Ledyard Mitchell, president of the
Maxwell Motor Co., at a recent gath
ering of employees.
"The Maxwell company is out TO
change these conditions. 1t is our in
tention to bring our great big fac
tory family closer together. We want
the men over In the choking foun-
dries to feel they are good for some
thing besides sweating. We want our
girls and Office employees to come to
work with a smile. We want mutual
satisfaction to exist"
The first move along these lines
came last week when the Maxwell
officials and employees, with their
families made up an immense theater
party. There were no box seats or
evening clothes. All sat together and
in one particular row there were two
high salaried officials, a shop foreman
and a riveter-all accompanied by
their wives.
Captain Frank Tinney's "Atta Boy
was the name of the show. The work
being done by the Maxwell company
is what the army calls morale work
the very department to which Captain
Tinney had been assigned to until re-
Gently.
To encourage the factory officials
in the first step, Captain Tinney and
his oversee veterans put on a spec
ial entertainment for the automobile
workers. Although Tinney's name is
built on a minstrel burnt-cork repu-
tation at the New York Winter Gar
den, he is an effective and convincing
speaker.
He organized his present company

VALUE IS ONLY Sentimental
Mistletoe One Of Most Greatly Ad-
mired Of Evergreen Plants But
Is Practically Worthless.

Perhaps one of our evergreen
plants is more loved and admired
thar the mistletoe, with it's modest
acknowledgment leaves and it's clus-
ters of small white berries. For GEN.
turtles it has been considered an inn
portant feature of the Christmas dec
grafton. Yet, in regard to the real
value Of the plant, the mistletoe is
practically worthless.
1t is a small shrub comprising more
than four hundred known species.
mostly tropical and parasitic. In the
eastern and southern parts Of the
United States the common mistletoe
grows on various species of decidu-
Gus trees. In Europe, it seems to pre-
fer the %apple-tree to any other host.
1t sends it's roots through the bark
OF the tree and draws sustenance
from the sap. However, it is only a
partial parasite, for it has green
caves which enable it to SO some
work in making food for itself.
In soIne species Of mistletoe the
flowers are SNOWY, while those of
other species. are more modest. The
plstllS and stamens do not grow with
in the same flower, or even on the
same plant, but the pistillate flowers
grow on one plant and the staminate
or another.
The berries contain fiat seeds, sur
rounded by d very sticky substance,
from which birdlime may be made.
This birdlime is spread upon places
frequented by birds, to impede their
movements and render them easily
captured. In q similar way it may be
used to snare ground-sauirrels and
other small animals. This is the only
practical use that has ever been made
OF the mistletoe.
Inc plant grows very slowly, and
not until it y four years old does
Il bear its first white, translucent ber-
ries. However, it drains the vital
juices necessary to the growth Of the
tree, and when many punches find
Judgment upon the same tree, they Ill
timately cause its decline and DEATH
