HE oUTDID HIMSELF
Following the Example of Herod, Dr.
Montgomery has Out-MOntgOm-
eryed DR.. Montgomery

DR.. Montgomery of Micanopy is in
our county jail again.
The number of times Doc has been
in our jail is a compliment to that
structure. He seems to have posi-
tive affection for it.
He will probably remain there for
some time now.
We don't know but what all the
trouble should be blamed on Lou
Green. Lou is Docs official guardian.
The other day he took his family and
wen on a vacation. The agreement
was that Doc wouldn't come to town
without LOUIS consent. We suppose
a little bird whispered to Doc that
Lou was gone. Doc has also an af-
fection for Ocala, and we suppose he
came to the logical conclusion thai
being Lou wasn't here, he couldn't ask
permission, so he would come over
and get another. No matter what his
theory was, he was prompt with prac-
tice. He put his usual armament in
his car and statred for 0cala, indulg-
ing his playful disposition as he came
along. Several people held up by
him phoned to 0cala. and the police
prepared to give him hospitabls re-
ception.
However, about AZ miles moth Of
Ocala, Doc had car trouble, which
brought him to halt. He didn't care
to bother with the car, and thinking
he had found a good place to spend
the night, and being Of a sociable dis
position, he tried to add to the gener-
al satisfaction of the world by caus-
ing everybody to stop and stay with
him.
After awhile somebody got a phone
message thru from Kendrick to Sher-
iff Galloway. and that cavalier at
once mounted his fiery Ford. and with
Deputy Perkins set forth to queli this
incipient insuTrection. They found
Doc blocking the traffic a little this
side of Kendrick. Several carloads Of
people were nearby. patiently waiting
to be shot. Doc was half-shot, MAX
ing steady calls on a bottle Of moon
shine. When the sheriff arrived, Doc
held him up also. The sheriff lined
his gunsights on him and was about
to shoot, when he made out that Doe
had nothing but bottle in his hand.
He made himself known to MontgCm-
cry, who apologized and offered the
sheriff a drink. The big sheriff was
rather wrathy tho; he handcuffed Doc
and told the weary walters to go on
their way. He found a fine double
barreled shotgun loaded with No.
buckshot, and new Colts automatic,
caliber .38. and plenty ammunition
for both in the car.
The sheriff brought Montgomery to
jail, and it win probably go hard with
poor Doc. There is half a dozen
charges against hirn, and he stands q
good chance Of going TO the~peniten-
tiary. If he does. he win arrive too
alte for Cats to pardon him out.
Doc didn't show much repentance
on his way to town, cussing the sher-
iff for about one million different
things. Mr.. Galloway paid no at
tention to him.

BAND WILL TAKE A REST
Concerts Will be Discontinued for a
Few Weeks

Having finished the three months
series of concerts, the Ocala band will
rest up for few weeks. In the mean
time we intend to get some new music
worked up and have the instruments
repaired, many of them being badly
in need of it.
We take this opportunity to ex-
press our sincere appreciation of the
efforts of the Board of Trade and the
committee appointed by it, and to
each and every one that has given
support to the band.
Also the band members unite in ex-
pressing appreciation to Mrs. Sarah
Jane Manly, whose work and untir-
ing efforts have made our little band
possible. Band Members.

have failed to pay. at least on or be-
fore the second Saturday in the month
preceding the day of such election,
his poll taxes for the two years next
preceding the year in which such cleo
ton shall be held; Provided, that no
person shall be prevented from voting
on account of not having so paid a
| poll tax for any years which shall not
have been lawfully assessable against
him by reason of his not having been
of age, ETC., etc.
Ordinarily, there is one other quail
| fication prerequisite for voting,
and that is the payment of poll taxes
The law requires that poll taxes be
paid for the two years previous to
the election, if legally due. As women
have not been permitted to vote
therefore, the presumption is that
they will not be required to pay poll
taxes this year, as none was legally
due from them.

complished for them by anyone else.
