The Ocala evening star. [volume] (Ocala, Fla.) 1895-1943, 1920-11-26

Here's hoping squaw winter will meet
an early demise.
Our city's niftiest young man says
ga fellow doesn't always have to turn
a corner to find trouble"
Why is it the big fine cars have
dogs in 'em as rule, and the little old
Fords have healthy children?
! Our oldest inhabitant says: There's
nc use in the world trying to tell the
young sprouts of today anything. It's
Just like pouring water off a ducks
tback-in one ear and out of the
other"
There are scads of 0cala's best bus
iness men who went barefooted and
defed the elements of all seasons
when they were boys. who now have
sons and grandsome who limp around
| tcwn in Percival shoes that pinch their
feet, being built for style only.
Little Miss Sugar Shortage says
"There is no harm in gaining weight
SO long as you do not accumulate fat
above the ears"
Watch the man play golf. If he
plays good game only when he is
/ in the lead, he is not the man to put
UP business fight if things went
against him for a while A fact true
as gospel preaching.
You are entitled to your suspicious
of the person who dot not take hand
in civic affairs. Likely as not he is
'<pinched" somewhere to keep silent

There are several street crossings
i in our town that in rainy weather it

i One reason some people go to
church regularly is because "they
just dearly love" to have their virtues
sitting in the front row with their
faces all shined, whether they behave
like the devil at home or in business
all the week or not.
No town is better or bigger than
it's board of trade. ocalans need to
cooperate in more ways than merely
J giving dollar now and then.
We read that a silk worm has been
developed that will do twice the work
of the old fashioned and well known
worn. Here's hoping that the new
, worms will become so plentiful as to
make cotton stockings fashionable.
Every town has its bad boy, and
some run into the plural. But no boy
will long continue bad if he has the
, right kind of mother. In other words,
| as soon as boy becomes old enough
to understand that his mother has the
cid time religion, he's anchored. And
she can send that boy to college even
without fear of his returning home a
little infidel.
We all remember when it was the
dog or horse that was considered q
fellows best friend. Now it is the
faithful old fiivver that shares its
{ last drink of gasoline with him.

The Gainesville Sun had a leading
: editorial recently headed Protect the
Squirrels" Ocala has protected her
squirrels for number of years and
we believe in doing it yet, although in
some sections of the city they have
become almost as much of a nuisance
as rats. They rob the fruit trees and
