Albany, n. z, has a historical mu-
scum that contains, among other treas

In Germany, says Cartoons. This in
strument was owned by the first Of the
wandering hungry five bands which
appeared in this country after Marx
and Engels, the industrious collabora-
tors wrote the communist manifesto.
The bass drummer was called Thick
Head" Schultz. According to a music
teacher now living In Albany, who
heard Schultz perform in the sos, he
could play in three different rhythms
at once without making the band mad.
At Troy, ten miles up the Hudson
river from Albany, was one Of those
long, old-fashioned inclosed wooden
bridges, unlighted within, like a tun-
mel. Looking through 1t, as one ap-
preached, one saw a tiny spot Of light
at the far end, as If gazing through
a telescope wrong end to.
One day the hungry brass band start

raising along the road westward.
Schultz had paid the nickel toll when
he happened to look through the long
black space ahead. Then he baked.

How to Braze Metals.

In brazing brass. copper, wrought
iron and steel, clean the metal thor
oughly at and near the joint to be
brazed, by scraping or filing. Be sure
to fit the edges closely together. If
greater strength is required. lap the
edges over each other about a quarter
of an inch. A good plan Is to rivet the
edges together to hold them in place.
Place brazing material along the joint.
Take finely powdered borax, wet 1t
with water and place little along the
seam. Put the article over a charcoal
Are, joint down. Heat 1t slowly and
evenly, holding 1t about an inch above
the charcoal. When the brazing ma
terial Is all melted. rap the part with
a hammer. to induce the material 70
how all through the joint. If the ar
ticle Is brass or copper, 1t should be
plunged into cold water. and II steel
or iron 1t should be allowed to cool
slowly.

MEETING OF TITLE
MEN AT DAYTONA

Editor Star: | know that you know
who comprised the party who pulled
out at o'clock Thursday morning
for Daytona, party composed 80 per
cent. of ladies and all dates kept were
sufficient to cause the car to stop at
the first bay tree and wreaths of vic
tory to be woven for their adornment.
The condition of travel was some
what of a surprise for, with the ex-
ception of around Lake Weir and
Leesburg, the road via Tavares, Mount
Dora, Sanford, Osteen and Smyrna
was good. Our arrival at the Nep-
tune was little late for dinner but
the ladies promptly shed their outer
wraps and started seaward. When
they were again in their right minds
and clothes the real work of the trip
commenced.
The Florida Association of Title
Men had scheduled their eighth an
nual convention for August 18th and
10th and after convention hours the
Neptune (headquarters) was fairly
well filled with the abtsartcing talent
of the state, and, as later happening
will show, Ocala was not taking a
back seat.
Friday morning the convention as
sembled in the chamber of commerce
rooms and took up the serious busi-
ness of the day. Among other wise
conclusions reached was one that
made Ocala the next meeting place of
the association, and, another conclu,
sion, was that an Ocala man was the
'fittenest" one to occupy the Office OF
president of the association for the
coming year. Another one was that
the percentage of white horses in
Marion county must greatly exceed
that of other counties of the state. Ir
fact, Ocala was the hub around which
revolved most of the younger men OF
the convention, and several engage.
ments were made to introduce the
satellites to a bathing place where
a second bath was not required to riC
one of the first.
Saturday morning meant homewarc
bound, with a good breakfast al
Smyrna, lunch at Eustis and a rea
tin can feed and swim at Eastlake
The trip was ended about 10:30 p. m
with the firm resolve to go to some
other convention sometime. R. S. r.

be added TO the business district. And
something will have been added to the
tone of the city. Our business build
iEgs should serve something more
than a mere utilitarian purpose.
A city's appearance is a reflection
OF its citizenship.
The secretary of the Board of
Trade asks, therefore, that the letter
be answered. He wants the members
TO stop and think about the needs of
the city and county and then put
these thoughts on paper Each thing
proposed, in the letter, whether it be
something new or old, will be listed,
and those things proposed by the
largest number will be given a place
and precedence, accordingly, on a pro-
gram for the betterment of Ocala and
Marion county.

RED CROSS SWEATERS
The Women of Poland are Grateful to
Their American Sisters

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 19-Those pret-
ty gay sweaters of lilac and orange
an dpeacock blue which the girls in
your town are wearing these bright
summer days, are serving a far less
ornamental but a far more serious
purpose on the other side of the
world.
Three freight cars full of them
not so bright, not so pretty, perhaps,
hut just as we'll knit and, if anything,
good deal warmer-have arrived at
Warsaw for distribution among the
destitute Polish people east of the
River Bug, the most terribly war
afflicted territory in Poland.
Nose of these sweaters were made
by the hands of southern women,
members of the Red Cross chapters
in the southern division. They were
part of trainload of ninety-six cars,
the rest containing clothing, medicines
and other supplies which the Red
Cross is bringing to the relief of the
suffering Poles.
The sweaters are the most sought
after article of clothing in Poland
just as they are, apparently, in Am
erica. But whereas lover here" they
are worn merely for adornment, cover
there" during the coming winter they
may keep many a Polish woman and
child from freezing to death.

BOARD OF TRADE
NOTES.

mas addressed a letter TO the mem berS
to find out what are considered the
most pressing needs of the city and
county. 1t is letter that should be
answered. Having gotten the Judge
ments of all, the secretary's purpose
is to prepare a program of work based
on these judgments, a program that
will be a crystalization of the
thought, sentiment and patriotism of
the membership.
To have a successful Board of
Trade, to build a better community,
the members of the organization and
the citizens of the community must
think progress. Men build towns and
cities. All natural resources and ad-
vantages are nothing unless men
make use of them. Some of the
greatest cities have been built on
sand. Others have been built on
swamp land. They were built by men
who possessed imagination and de-
termination.
Mahogany furniture is not made in
Grand Rapids, Mich, because mahog-
any grows there. Orange marmalade
Is not made in Dundee, Scotland, be-
cause oranges grow there. Mrs. Kidd's
"Pin Money" pickles could have been
made in Ocala as we'll as in Richmond,
Va, had Mrs. Kidd happened to live
in Ocala.
Mountain Lake, in Polk county, is d
beautiful place, because a group of
men with Imagination bought some
/ lands that had been known to no one
but cattle men, and employed Fred
erick Olmstead, one of the greatest
landscape gardeners in the United
States to beautify them.
: No community can progress unless
the citizenship cultivates a real and
uEselfish interest. Weeds grow rank
: in the city that cares nothing for
cleanliness and beauty. The difference
between good architecture and bad, in
homes and public buildings, is diff
ference not so much of cost as of
knowing what good architecture is or
of employing someone that does.
$&&
The secretary's purpose is TO get
the members of the Board of Trade to
thinking about the things that make
for betterment, and having thought
about them, to work them out with
tie same spirit that actuated the peo-
pie of Ocala and Marion county in
their work during the world war.
There must be a community spirit.
1t is not necessary that all think
alike, nor is it necessary that all do
the same thing, but it is necessary
that eevry one have a desire to do
something to build a better place in
which to live. 1t is not necessary
that all agree, but the spirit must be
the same for all.
The merchant who builds better
store front is helping TO build the
community. If the street front is q
good piece of architecture, if it pos.
sesses beauty and is a work of art
the merchant is adding to his business
not only, but is actually adding some.

PRESIDENT PLEADS
FOR EARLY PEACE
Says that World Unrest Cannot Cease
Until Agreement is Accepted by
the United States
ASSOCIATED Pressl

Washington, Aug. 19-In a 2000-
word statement at the opening of the
conference at the White House today,
President Wilson told the foreign
committee of the Senate that he could
see no reasonable objection to inter
PIetations that did not form part of
the formal ratification of the peace
treaty.
If interpretations were a part of
formal ratification, the president said,
long delays would follow as other gov
ernments would have to accept the
language of the Senate as the Ian
guage of the treaty before ratifca-
ton would be complete. He said that
Article 10 was not obscure if read in
connection with the whole document,
and that an affirmative vote of the
United States would be necessary in
any question affecting it.
Under Article 16, the president
said, questions affecting individual
members of the league alone were
left to their own settlement, such as
tariffs, immigration, etc. He said the
Monroe Doctrine would in no way be
impaired or interfered with by the
league of nations
WORLD is WAITING
Mr.. Wilson pleaded for early rati-
f'cation to settle the world unrest.
All members of the foreign COM
mittee attended the conference. The
president received the senators in the
east room and invited them to lunch,
continuing the conference after noon.
BRITISH AND AMERICAN BUILT
The president said the plan for the
league was built up from a plan drawn
by a British committee, including
the ideas of General Smuts and his
own ideas. He said his own private
lc-draft of the original plan was not
submitted to the American peace mis-
sion and he had seen Secretary Lans-
lng's proposals only informally.
President Wilson declared he sug-
gested that the United States not par
tIcipate in the German indemnity, as
he wished this nation to gain the
moral asset, but said he did not refer
10 pre-war claims such as the sinking
of the Lusitania.
The president said the league coun-
Gil would have nothing to do with de-
Gliding whether the United States had
fulfilled its obligations in case of
withdrawal.
