LAWsARE ABUSED,
SAYS.CITY,S MAYOR
Ordinance Regarding Parking of
Machines and Lealxy Autos
To Be Enforced Now

There have been two city ordinance
es pertaining to parking of automo-
biles and allowing the same to re-
main on paved streets in a leaky
condition, badly abused during the
past two weeks, according to reports
of city officials, and some information
was sought by Mayor Evans at the
regular meeting of the council re-
garding the time when the ordinances
were to be strictly enforced. He
stated that this matter had been left
to the Judgment of the police, and
while he found that there mad been no
accidents nor serious collisions, he
believed the time was ripe for the
stopping of this practice. However,
he added that the matter had been
left to the police. Chief of Police
Claud Devore mentioned the fact that
it was difficult thing to bring about
the enforcement of big list of new
at one time. This was accepted as q
verp true statement and it is believed
the police know more about it than
anyone else. But the ordinances will
be brought into play as a protection
for newly paved streets and it is pro-
bable a pumber of arrests will be the
result.
"I am of the opinion that the quick
Ell we get them out of the way of dis
obeying this ordinance the better it
will be for all concerned as well as the
Streets" commented the Mayor,
whereupon he was Informed by the
Chief of Police that this will be done,
and there would be strict enforce
ment henceforth.
There has been but little time given
to the matter of time machins have
been allowed to stand in various
places, especially in the restricted
zone, and there have been some of the
largest assemblages of machines in
the history of the city during the past
month, and these facts add to the diff
ficuIty in pressing the new law to the
letter.
The parking ordinance stands and
will be given trial, it is expected,
a. once, and the matter of leaky cars
which has brought about one arrest
and fine, promises to be more prolific
acng this line in the near future.

MISS PORTER'S PIANO RECITAL

Thursday evening at the Baptist
church Miss Porter received her
friends and aided by her music pupils
entertained them by an exceptionally
splendid program. 1t has been said,
and rightly so. that Ocala holds more
talent unsteady and otherwise than
any city Of its size in the state, and
that the springtime within her Dor
ders could be rightly termed a fes-
tival Of melody
For this special occasion the church
was artistically decorated in white
and green. Easter lilies in the great
est profusion were the only flowers.
They were intertwined with aspar-
agus plumosa and on the altar rails
were lighted candles shedding a soft
glow throughout the auditorium. The
selections for the evenings entertain
ment were confined strictly to the
work of modern composers, and with
few exceptions they are living today
Each number on the program was
beautifully rendered, and if it were
possible special mention would be
made of every one.
Miss Porter exercises a magnetic
influence over her pupils and her ac-
cOmplishments, musically, in this. her
home city, have been marvellous. The
recital of Thursday evening will long
be remembered as one of the happiest
Of recent years. The programs print
| ed on dainty white folders were very
neat and pretty. and each number
was listened to with keen interest
By the large audience. The selections
were as follows:
Agnus Del (Concone): Glee Club.
School March (Streabog): Jessie
Pearl Redding.
Boat Song (Kern): India Smith.
Nalse (Spindler) Martha Preer.
Duet (Lebierre): Webster Gillen
