A SUGGESTION

1t is only little over month be-
fore the Florida legislature meets in
regular session in Tallahassee. There
has never been a time in the history
of the state when wise and careful
legislation was so much needed.
Expenditures for some improve
ments are imperative, but the people
are taxed to the limit, and the legis-
lature should strive TO reduce rather
than increase the states expense.
Everything superfuous should BIT cut
off. New laws may be needed, but
much more do we need the repeal of
some we now have.
Marion county and the twentieth
district have a fairly good delega-
tion-Senator Crosby and Represen-
tatives Fort and Folks. We believe
they will do well but they will do bet
ter If they take the people into their
confidence.
We suggest that each of them pub
lish letter stating what measures
he intends to introduce. and what
prospective legislation he intends to
favor or oppose. The Star offers them
space for such publication.

INTERVIEW THE COLLECTOR
BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON

In giving out the dates for the
presence here of Deputy Collector
Shaw, who will help those liable to in
come tax in making out their returns,
the Star erred in saying he would be
here untiP Monday evening.
Mr. Shaw must close his work here
Saturday afternoon, therefore you
have only two days more TO avail
yourself of his advice. He will be in
his Office this afternoon and tomor-
row until $3.50 and Saturday until A
p. m.
Making out income tax returns is
a very difficult job. We have known
many to be sent back three or four
times, so avail yourself of Mr.. Shaw's
services as soon as possible.

Strong protests are being made
against the courts martial of the
United States army and many of
their sentences. Now that the war is
over, it would be very good idea to
give the system an overhauling. 1t is
the sad truth that private soldier
has far less chance for justice in the
American than in the British or
Franch armies. Congressman, IN
stead of making speeches against the
system should take steps to correct it.

expense was the band, which was con-

other expenses.A considerable amount

WELCOME HOME TO SOLDIERS
HOnOred Her Men In Man
ner Most HOspitable.


The Soldiers Welcome Home cele-
bration at Grantsville for the men of
District No 3. which was held on
Thursday of last week, was a sue
cess in every particular, despite the
rather unfavorable weather. The peo-
pie of Grantsville town and District
NA3 were determined to make it
sss, and, naturally, success was
a foregone conclusion. The Arion Band
of Frostburg was engaged for the day
and contributed much toward the sue
cess of the occasion, and Beall's Or
chestra from Frostburg was present
in the evening to provide entertain
ment for the dances and onlookers.
Mrs. Earl Statler, of Friendsville, who
is an accomplished musician, gave her
services during the absence of the
band and while waiting for the arri-
val of the orchestra.
The parade started from the school
grounds, the band taking the lead,
followed by the men of the Third Dis
trict in uniform, and the Woodmen of
the World. Then a pony cart with
diminutive and charming Columbia,
impersonated by little Elizabeth En-
gle, and an imposing and pompous
Uncle Sam by her side, whose illum-
mating smile proved him to be Master
Sammy Winterberg, followed in order.
There was also an automobile in
which rode in state the few remaining
Civil War veterans to whom were
accorded the same honors our younger
soldiers received. All of the pupils of
the school marched two abreast, form
ing pretty part of the parade in
their patriotic colors. Four pretty
girls, dressed in Red Cross uniforms
and bearing a large cross, were also
in line and two small girls on ponies.

And gossip in Washington is that
Mr.. McAdoo and his friends have been
careful to get a good grip on the

influence is reputed to be dominant in
the National Committee organization
and there seems to be no doubt that
Mr., McAdoo's friends have been
posted about in this organization
with considerable forethought. This
is so far true that there is noticeable
GOODNESS on the part of some Demo-
cratic leaders to the plan of the Ma
tional Committee to raise a monster
campaign fund of between $780,
900 and S10,000,000, there being a
suspicion that it is to be used in a
large degree to boost along the polit-
zeal fortunes of the former Secretary
of the Treasury. Attorney General
Palmer's friends are also credited
with much activity, although it is con-
coded that unless the Attorney Gen
eral makes more of a showing in his
alleged war on the high cost of living
than he has up to date, he is likely
to find himself much handicapped.
Altogether the signs are that it will
not be long until the activities in be-
half of each of long list of Demo-
cratic possibilities become plainly dis
cernible.

But the infinite wisdom of God
Interposed, and the form of our loved

Is resting beneath the sod.

And when will the dark shadows flee
And show me the souls that are watt

To summon me over the sea.

Those souls that have so long been
