MAKING A DRIVE
FOR A MILLION
Marion County Post No. / of the Am
erican Legion Must Strive to OBJ
tain Full Quota of Members

The American Legion, official or
ganization of the men who were in
service between April 9th and Nov.
11th, 1918, is this month making a
drive for one million members. Flor
ida's quota of this number is 1919.
The quota of the local post has not
been named, but Marion County Post
No. hopes to get as many new MEM
bers as possible. The county organi-
ZatiOn wants every man in the county
who is eligible to become a member.
The American Legion is going to
be very powerful organization. Eve
ry man who is in service should sub
scribe at once for the American Le-
gion Weekly. whether he is a member
of the American Legion or not. If
he is not a member already. he is
sure to become one after reading the
weekly. The three dollars annual
dues of the Marion County Post No.
includes a years subscription to the
weekly. Copies of the state and post
constitution and bylaws of the legion
may be >seen at any time at the Board
of Trade room in Ocala.
Meetings of the post in this county
are held on the first Thursday night
in each month and it is planned to
have several meetings with unusual
features several times during the
year. The objects of the American
Legion are set forth in the preamble
of the state constitution, which is as
fellows: "For God and country we
associate ourselves together for the
following purposes: to uphold and de-
fend the constitution of the United
States of America; to maintain law
and order; to foster and perpetuate
a one hundred per cent Americanism;
to preserve the memories and Incl
dents of our association in the great
war; to inculcate a sence of individual
obligation to the community, state
and nation; to combat the autocracy
of both the classes and the masses; to
make right the master of might; to
promote peace and' good will on
earth; to safeguard and transmit to
posterity the principles of justice,
freedom, and democracy. and conse-
crate and sanctify our comradeship
by our devotion to mutual helpful
ness.
The organization is absolutely nom
partisan. Politics are not allowed in
any form. The legion knows no rank.
Generals and privates have the same
standing in the organization. 1t is
not an organization of officers as
some seem to think.
Members of the Marion County
Post No. l. who have not paid their
annual dues, should do SO at once.
Hand them or mail them to Frank
Churchill, post finance officer, in care
of Ocala National Bank Make checks
payable to Marion County Post No.
1, American Legion" State and ma
tional dues are included in the post
dues, and must be paid into the state
FINANCE officer by October 1st.

HERLONG'S HOGS
Credited to this County Instead
of Alachua

Because Mr. z. C. Herlong lives in
-Micanopy and advertises that postof-
fee, a great many people do not know
that his big herd of Poland China
hogs are all grown on Marion coun-
tvs rich soil. But his farm is in
Marion county and the world should
know it.
Messrs. z. c. Chambliss and ]. NJ.
Thomas took dinner Sunday at McIn-
tosh, at the hospitable home of Mr..
and Mrs. w. M. Gist, and in the aft
ernoon visited the Herlong farm.
They found the hogs numerous and in
such fine condition that notwithstand-
ing all the compliments they had
heard for the farm they were sur.
prised as well as delighted. Messrs.
Chamhliss and Thomas knew that Mr..
Herlong had beaten the Georgia corn
belt with his great SOW, Smooth
Queen, but did not know he had 200
more like her.
On Wednesday, Sept. IL, Mr.. Her
long will hold at the farm a public
sale of breeding pigs. which will be
a splendid chance for those who
grow hogs for market to obtain some
new blood, that will give size, bone
and quality.
No Marion citizen can see these
hogs without having a better opinion
of his home county.
Mr.. Herlong promises a big bar
becue for his visitors on the 18th, and
whether our citizens from this part
of the county buy or not, the trip
will be well worth while.

MAKING PLANS
FOR MOTORCYCLE
A Real Oy-Trip is Promised Motor
lists of Marion County

The Marion county motorcade into
South Florida September 23rd to 26th
promises to be great trip. AS yet it
is not known just how many cars will
be in line. The committee in charge
expects to have some idea of this by
the end of the week. 1t is hoped that
every section of the county will be
represented by one or more cars. The
motorcade is for the purpose of boost
ing Marion county. and of giving to
those who go an opportunity to see
South Florida, the progress being
made there, and of getting in touch
with the people along the route. 1t is
also an opportunity to get away from
business and out into the free air of
the open road.
Plans were being made last week,
looking to a joint motorcade of the
motorists of Lake and Marion county.
The idea of having the two counties
get together made an instant appeal.
committee Saturday night, however,
the proposed trip was discussed from
various angles and it was decided that
it would be best not to attempt joint
motorcade. The committee is of the
opinion that cars from the two coun-
ties would make too large a party and
cne difficult to handle on the road. A
large party would also make it diff
cult to obtain satisfactory accommo-
cations en- route.
Those who fail to go on this trip
will miss a real treat. The weather
each day now is getting more and
more snap into it, and to get out on
the open road promises to have all
the joy possible in it.
Those going are being urged to take
the women of their families along.
The plan is to have five persons in
each seven passenger car and four in
the five passenger cars. 1t has been
suggested by the committee that each
car be a unit in the party and that
the owner of the car have all of his
expenses paid by the others in the
machine with him. Each car, however
may arrange this any way that is
thought best. The finncial end of the
trip, in other words, will be looked
after by each car separately. These
will, however, be conductor in
charge of the entire motorcade, who
will give the necessary directions as
TO the time of starting. length of
stops and such other directions as are
found necessary to keep the party to-
rether and running according to

sons of about one and one-half hours
duration each One half of each les
son period is ordinarily devoted to
theoretical instruction and the other
half to practical work and .demonstra-
ton.
In order to help defray expenses a
fee of 81 is charged each person de-
string to take this course, which re-
quires about two weeks to complete it.
A trained nurse sent from head
quarters in Atlanta will arrive in

into Georgia and the Carolinas and
other South Atlantic states, and
farmers from these states, as well al
some from the Middle Western states,
are moving into Florida. More farm
lands have probably been sold in Mar
ion county this summer than at any
time during the present decade.
There is some hesitancy about
building because of the fact that war
time and pre-war rentals are not
large enough to assure the investor Q
reasonable return on his money. It In
believed, however, that modern bun
galows or apartments are in such de-
mand that higher rentals would be
received for houses and apartments
of attractive and modern design.
There is no hesitancy evident at pres
ent about paying the highest prices
for other things.
