Walter E. Flanders punched the

9:36 April 2, according to the Punch,
the house organ of the Chalmers and
Maxwell factory, just received by r.

It was the first vacation taken by
the well known factory chief since

any man VIII has produced over 300,-
600 of one kind of car is entitled to
knock of a few days every threG
years.
Mr.. Flanders mysteriously refuses
to indicate in feet or inches whether
perch or porpoise was his baited prey.
The important thing. however, COM
ments the house organ, is the Allan
tic tan which tints his features with
every Indication of a renewed energy
and recharged vitality. There is clear
ly indicated an enlarged capacity for
tireless energy and quickened desire
to excel in production, sales and every
branch Of his life work-the manufac-

GRANDMA USED SAGE
TEA TO DARKEN HAIR
She mixed Sulphur with il to
Restore Color, Gloss,
Youthfulness.

Common garden sage brewed into q
heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn
gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully
dark and luxuriant. Just few applica-
tions will prove a revelation if your hair
is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the
Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home,
though, 10 troublesome. An easier way IL
to get a 50-cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound at any drug store
all ready for use. This is the old time
recipe improved by the addition of other
ingredients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair 10 not
sinful, we all desire to retain our youth
full appearance and attractiveness. By
darkeiing your hair with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell,
because it does it SO naturally, SO evenly.
You inst dampen sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time; by
morning all gray hairs have disappeared,
and, after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark,
glossy. soft and luxuriant.
This preparation is delightful toilet
requisite and is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention OF disease.

ENLISTMENT IN THE
NAVY KEEPING UP
Navy Recruiting Station
Ocala. Fla, April p, 1919.

AZ
Ocala, Fla, April 21, 1919.
From the date voluntary enlist
mentss in the regular navy were re-
sumed, Dec. 4, 1918, up to and includ-
ing March 27, 1919, the following
data will be interesting to note:
Total number of me nenlisted in the
regular navy during this time, 1884.
Of this total number enlisted, 12,497
were young men under nineteen years
of age and who have not served in any
branch OF the service; 1109 were men
who had previously served in some of
the military service other that naval
service; 318 wer men who had pre-
viously served in the naval service;
4017 were men nineteen years of age
and over who have never served in
any branch of the military service.
From the above data it will be seen
that the navy is rapidly securing a
large number of men greatly needed
to take the place of men who enlisted
for the duration of the war and will
soon have to be discharged. OF these
men who enlisted for the duration OF
the war, a large percentage will be
men holding advanced ratings, and
these ratings will have TO be filled
largely by the young men coming into
the service. Those young men who
contemplate enlisting should not hes
itate further who those coming in now
will have an advantage over those who
come in later.
Now that hostilities have ceased
the work will not be so strenuous, anc
the duty will be far more pleasant;
the opportunity for diversity of travel
will be greater. Young men desiring
to take advantage of this opportunity
should without delay communicate
with or come TO see me at Room 311
postofice building, 0cala, Fla. We
are also in need of some colored mer
for mess attendants, stewards and
other good jobs. Pay for all range:
from $32.60 up. T. M. Kilgore,
Officer in Charge.

URGES FARMERS
TO COOPERATE
County Agent Points Out Advantages
of Pooling the Crops for
Marketing

Mr.. II. Blackburn, county agent, is
making a plea for cooperation among
the farmers of Marion county in the
matter of producing and marketing
crops. In a talk before the Marion
count agricultural committee Satur-
day afternoon, Mr.. Blackburn offered
to assist the farmers of the county In
the work, saying that he had gained
considerable experience in this IN Ala
bama. He pointed to the advantages
to be gained by a pooling Of products
for shipment. Farmers who have not
enough of a product to ship in car lots
should join hands with other farmers
in his neighborhood in order that car
load shipments might be made. In
this wap the products can be mar
keted to better advantage; and better
prices can be obtained. Mr.. Black
burn said that the farmers should get
together and agree on what crops arU
TO be planted each season, and the
acreage, keeping in mind the market
demands.
Mr.. L. S. Light, present at the
meeting, told of the results obtained
by several farmes in his section of the
county, who had pooled their crops.
He said that cabbage had been raised
and shipped in this way. He urged
the farmers to get together this yeai
on planting sweet potatoes, and on
marketing them, saying that there
will be big demand for sweet pota-
toes properly marketed.
To further assist the farmers Of the
county in marketing, Mr.. Blackburn
asked that the farmers list with him
each week such articles as they might
have for sale. At the end Of each
week he would consolidate these lists
and send them to the state marketing
bureau.

OF the chairman of the literature and
art committee was given.

troduced DR.. Pharr, from the depart
ment of English, University of Flor
ida, who gave a splendid and most
practical talk on the Development OF
Language" His interesting theories
brought out the facts that language
was probably in existence before the
records. He stated three well defined
theories of the origin of language de-
Velopment, namely: from its first be-
ginning at the Tower of Babel; Sec
ond, the invention theory, and, lastly
pure evolutionary theory. Having ex.
planned these theories in a lucid man.
ner, he spoke briefly of the $50 dis
tinct languages spoken by the human
race today, which he reduced to sever
or eight large groups, explaining that
the human language was very prob
ably first spoken as one language, al
spoken originally by one tribe, the
greatest development being made by
contact with other minds, which was
most scientific and in accordance
with recent views.
Those enjoying DIR. Pharr's talk, a:
well as the many other good thing:
which have been brought before the
club members SO advantageously thi:
season have been fortunate indeed.
Mrs. Futch delighted the audience
by giving two songs in fine voice
This was Mrs. Futch's first appear
ance in song at a club meeting anC
she received many warm enconiums.
A recitation entitled "The Ameri
can Flag" was beautifully rendered
by Mrs. Bradford Webb, which wa.
followed by singing the Star SpangleC
Banner, which concluded the pro
gram.

then invited to the attractive tes
table where the hostesses, Mrs. Gerig
Mrs. Chace and Mrs. Harvey Clark
assisted by Misses Conibear, Louise
Booze, Wynona Wetherbee, Annie Da

The Munroe & Chambliss National
Bank had just received that amount
in bright, new banknotes, in sheets of
four, and Messrs. j. NJ. Thomas and
Richard Stroud did not fancy the job
of cutting them apart with scissors,
so they brought them over and had
the job done on the Stars big paper
cutter. They kept a mighty sharp
lookout on the editor and business
manager while the job was in pro-
gress, however.
The two concerts that were given
by the Royal Scotch Highlanders
band yesterday afternoon and eve
ming, proved not only a very attrae-
tive feature for Ocala In a musical
way, but a financial success for the
park committee of the Woman's Club,
under whose auspices they appeared.
This committee received $114.03 as its
share of the money taken in. The
members of the band were delighted
with Ocala and the reception they re-
ceived and the good order among the
listeners. The successful efforts Of
this committee In getting this band
here not only proved a musical treat
but of unusual value as an advertis-
ing feature for this city. We look for
ward to their return IN the fall with
keen interest.

PASSING THE BUCK
TO THE PEOPLE
TeutOn Government Afraid to Take
Responsibility of Accepting
Allied Terms

Berlin, April 22.-(By the Asso-

election is in readiness for an immed-
late plebiscite on peace terms which
can be completed throughout Ger
many in forty-eight hours, according
to information received here. 1t is
declared the cabinet wishes to avoid
the responsibility of either refusing
or accepting the terms and a plebis-
cite is almost certain. 1t is believed
the results will be refusal TO accept
the peace terms because the people
will overlook the correction of such
acts as maintenance of the blockade,
stoppage of food importations and
accompanying evils which may be ex-
pected, in view of their reluctance to
sanction harsh terms.
