A VALUED GIFT
TO THE LIBRARY

DIR. D. NJ. Smith has presented to
the Ocala public library large num-
Der of valuable books, which were the
property of his lamented wife. Mrs.
Smith took a wholehearted interest
IN the library, giving it many hours
of efficient work almost every week
while she was well enough to do so,
and it seemed TO the doctor that the
best disposal he could make of her
books was to donate them to the in
stitution to which she was so devoted.
Mrs. Smiths tastes ran to solid
reading, and her books were not only
valuable but many of them outside
the realm of ordinary literature. With
them go the bookcases, handsome and
convenient receptacles of glass and
polished wood. They are a great ac-
eession to the library.
The library association, to show its
appreciation of DIR. Smiths gift, and
to perpetuate Mrs. Smiths memory
will have her name inscribed on g
heavy metal plate, which shall be sci
in a suitable place in the collection
TO let all who come after the present
generation know when they consult
the books who first it was that CLEAN.

there were other distressing kidney
disorders. The different medicines ]
took didn't help me and when friend

did. After taking this medicine, the

The appointment of a superintend-
ent for the Mariana school has final
y been made, and the public is assur-
ed that the appointment "has nothing
to do with politics." which is con-
fession from the thickheads at ITALIA
hassee that there are some things to
be considered in the state of Florida
beside their own personal and politi-
cal welfare. The appointee is a Capt.
McClane, of Ocala, of whom we know
nothing except that he is military
man and physician. The fact that
the Ocala Star speaks well of hin.,
and that we know the Star to be a
true friend of reform at the industrial
school, gives US ground for hope that
the institution will not again be cited
as disgrace and shame to the state.

If women are going to invade the
business world in full force, the able
bodied boys and young men who are
planning for their life work should
get out m the open and leave the sun
proof and easy jobs to the females.
Boys should enter only on work that
requires strong muscles as well as
strong mental powers. They should
prepare to manage the farms and
handle the machinery. 1t makes a
herman tired to see a husky boy
jerking soda or measuring off dry
goods when he should be driving a
tractor on a farm or managing q

ocALA PIE REMAINS NORMAL

In these columns the other day ap-
peared a wall about the rapid decrease
in quantity of the great American
dessert, the pie, which was becoming
the little end of nothing whitfield
down to point, while the price there
of was skyrocketing. Upon this ar
ticle fell the eye of Charlie Hunter,
who conducts a plant for the manu-
facture of braces for the inner human,
corner Osceola and Broadway. Charlie
dispenses pie along with steak. eggs,
oysters, doughnuts, ct cetera, and as
he had not joined the movement TO
pervert pie into platinum he naturally
felt aggrieved, so he called up the
Star and voiced his discomfort.
Articles in this part of the paper
generally refer TO great world issues
and not to local affairs Papers of ma
tional fame, notably the Tampa Tri-
bune, have enlightened us as to the
excessive price of pie, pearls and po-
tatoes in other cities, states and ma.
tions. Here in Ocala one can yet eal
within his income, provided he has in.
come enough. At any rate, Charlie
Hunter will sell you a thick piece Oh
pie for thin dime, and you had bet.
ter get it while the getting is good.

After commenting favorably on the
appointment of DIR. McClane, the
Tampa Tribune says, and we think it
is right:
"The Tribune believed, however, as
it has said before, that the solution
of the problem will not be attained
until the institution is removed from
the place where it got its bad name,
and it placed with the other. charity
and correctional institutions of Flor
ida under one non-partisan. non

It is mooted question as to how
far lawyer should go in the defense
of client. Some maintain that law
yer has no right to take the case of
man he knows to be guilty; others
think that no matter how culpable
a criminal may be it is the duty of
his attorney TO clear him if possible.
It seems to the Star there is a middle
course. No matter how guilty man
may be, he is entitled to defense, but
we think that when a lawyer delib-
erately tries to cheat justice he shares
in his clients crime.
