First Lieutenant Levi Alexander is

friends
Lieut.. Alexander won his commits
sion as second lieutenant at Camp

A COMMUNITY CENTER

While we are all anxious to do
something that viii hold before us the
vision of our boys and the noble part
they played in helping to win the
war, we are not all agreed upon the
way we can best show our apprecia-
ton. The part the men of Marion
played was a practical one, and moth
ing but practical token would be
worthy as 4 reminder of their deeds.
Ocala has everything but a commu-
nifty center. Why not build one as =
symbol Of the gratitude which we all
owe to the men that so splendidly rep
resented US in the army and navy of
liberty. If we did this it would serve
all the purposes that a statue could
serve, and at the same time would be
of great value to the county and city
for manv years to come. A bronze
tablet could be placed upon the walls
to tell the story Of noble deeds, and
the names Of all the men who served
in the army and navy would appear
there. The building might be SO ar
ranged that a much needed auditor
ium could occupy the main floor. This
WOutu DC a great DOOH 70 OCdAds WnEFS
there is no public hall suitable for
large meetings. The war has taught
us the vital need Of physical fitness
for the young men and women Of the
nation. At. present there is no place
where the young people Of this city
can enjoy the benefit of physical cul-
ture with proper gymnastic equip
ment. The memorial, hall could have
all this. and a swimming pool might
be included. Every year there is an
increasing number of tourists. who
discover the beauties of Marion, and
this number can be greatly augmented
by the introduction of tourists bu-
reau, which viii not only bring the
tourist to see US, but will make him
feel so much at home that he viii
want to stay. The natural place for
a service of this kind 70 be rendered
would be in the building which had
been erected under the watch word Of
He profits most who serves best" A
thing of beauty is joy forever, and
if to this beauty of art we can add
the practical touch of utility, we
shall have a memorial that will keep
the laurels of men always fresh.

EVERY LITTLE RIOT HAS A
MEANING OF IT'S OWN
Organized Effort Being Made by
Bolsheviki to Overthrow Gov
Visited ON Themselves
{ Associated Press)

Washington, March 12.-Evidence
gathered by the postoffice department
and the department of justice showing
a countrywide radical propaganda
urging overthrow Of the United States
governemtn by violence and the set.
ting up of Bolshevism was put into
the Senate propaganda investigating
committee record yesterday by Major
f. Lowry Humes, counsel for the
committee. The documents include a
memorandum submitted by Solicitor
Lamar, of the postoffice department,
asserting that the /. W. W., social
lists and other radicals in this coun-
try had found a common cause for the
first time in Bolshevism. With the
memorandum were excerpts which
Mr.. Lamar said demonstrated a
bloody revolution and a reign of ter
ror were contemplated.
Mail passing between the Bolshe-
wiki socialists, /. w. w. and anarch-
lists since the armistice was seized by
government authorities.
One of the department of justice
exhibits was an anarchistic poster
which made its appearance recently
throughout New England. 1t was de-
scribed as typical piece of red pro-
paganda. 1t said among other things:
N"Deportation will not stop the
storm from reaching these shores.
The storm is within and very soon will
leap and crash and annihilate you in
blood and fire."
Another piece of propaganda de-
clared every strike is small revo-
luton and a dress rehearsal for the
big one"
Such publications as the Liberator,
the International Socialists Review,
the Red Dawn and the Class Strug-
gle were quoted at from some length
by Major Humes in completing the
record. Handbills said to have been
distributed by the 7. w. w. during the
recent strike in Seattle were among
the exhibits as were recent pamphlets
written by various authors whose
names have been associated with var
ious disturbances in the United States
during the past few years. Upton Sin
clair, Elizabeth Finn and a dozen
others were quoted from.
Among editorials put into the rec
ord was one by Arthur Brisbane in
the Washington Times discussing
photographs of Russian bolshevists
published by the New York Times.

~sIGNs OF THE TIMES"

The inclement weather did not pre-
vent a goodly number from hearing
Rev. Maurice Ruben at the First
Presbyterian church last evening. The
subject discussed was "The Ticking
of Gods Clock, or Some Signs of the
Times" The speaker took for the
basis of his remarks the second chap
ter of Daniel, which he claimed
sketched universal history, under the
four world empires of Babylon Medo-
Persia, Greece and Rome and its sue
cessors. After these have passed
away the fifth world empire will arise
which is the personal reign of Jesus
Christ over the earth. The speaker
held that the world is approaching
this latter time, when the second ad-
vent may be expected. As signs of
this nearness several signs were men
toned, that this is a great travelling
age, an age of great learning, but an
age of social, political and religious
degenartion- The prospect of the
near restoration of the Jews to Pal
estine was held to be the surest sign
that the end of this age is fast ap-
preaching, and the second coming of
the Lord is near.
This evening and tomorrow evening
Mr.. Ruben will speak at the Metho-
dist church. Mrs. Ruben will also have
part on the program. The theme of
these two discourses will be "A Thrill
ing Christian Experience" the story
of their conversion to Christ. and
their experience of His saving power

CARDINAL LOQUE GIVES
IRISH WISE COUNSEL

Dublin, March 12.-Cardinal Logue,
in pastoral letter, says that as any
one of ordinary foresight might have
reap much good from the labor peace
conference.
The cardinal advises the people to
bear the present drastic military code
in Christian spirit, and not to ex-
pose themselves recklessly to severe
punishment by needless assemblies or
other practices, remembering that
turmoil and discord never promote q
god cause.
AS to drilling, he says a learned
judge lately has termed it tomfoolery,
and that young men might practice
the goose-step to the Greek Kalends
Ia day that will never Gomez and it
never would bring them one step
nearer to freedom. 1t may seem a
fine thing to pose as martyrs, but
martyrdom, for even higher and
holier cause, would have little merit
if suffered in spirit of vanity and
display. 80
He solemnly warns the country
against secret SOClGClGS, the past GA-
periences of which in Ireland should
be a sufficient deterrent. Discussing
the movement for secularizing the ma
tional schools, Cardinal Logue says
the moment has been chosen slxilfully
for springing the plot when the means
of resistance is crippled seriously, and
when, in pursuance of policy he
never had ceased to regard as i'll
advised and ruinous, the Irish people
were left almost completely unrepre-
sented in parliament.
Referring to the revolutionary So
cialists, he says there. is reason to fear
that the plague has caught hold of
some of the Irish trade unions. An
alliance has been claimed with the
bolsheviki whose blood-stained career
has shocked the sensibilities of Chris
tendon, reviving in an exaggerated
form the worst horrors of the reign
of terror in the French revolution
"a nice alliance truly for holy Ireland,
the cardinal comments.
