AN UNIQUE PLAN
TO REDUCE III. c. OF L.

Los Angeles, Calf, June PA
plan to enlist 10000 American Legion
members in Los Angeles in a cam
paign to reduce the high cost of liv-
ing, under the direction of the city
market bureau was recently announc-
ed by Mayor Meredith P. Snyder.
The mayor said he proposed to close
the city's chain of markets to the sale
OF produce which has gone through
the hands of middlemen. Farmers III
surrounding territory, under the pro-
posed system, would be invited to
send their produce direct to the mar
kets and aid furnished them to do so
by the city if necessary.
"The success of this plan would de-
pend upon there being an immediate
sale of the products" the mayor con-
tinued. 'To that end we intend to
lay our plans before the two local
posts of the legion and ask the men,
bers to help secure customers. The
result, l am confident, will be that
the farmers will get much better
prices and the consumers will get
better food at less cost than they do

life which is noble and will leave in
f1uence in the world. Each of the per-
sens mentioned should be pattern in
most respects for the young people of
today. And if we fail to make out of
ourselves what we should we have
absolutely failed in life. We cannot
hope to attain success and prosperity,
in the best sense of the word. Fol-
lowing are words of great consolation
from our much loved pot, Longfel-
low:
"Lives of great men all remind US
We can make our lives sublime,
And, departing. leave behind US
Footprints on the sands of time"

it never dies. Long years after he is
laid away in the tomb his influence is
directing the footsteps of young men
and women. Mans influence not only
dWells upon earth a few years after
he is gone but sometimes it is for
hundreds and thousands of years.
In the narrower range, you will find
the sacred influence of all the good
mothers and fathers of our country
on the children they have left behind
them. 1t were better that a mother
leave upon her son or daughter a
noble and uplifting influence than to
leave them gold and much land. When
you hear boy say that he can not do
that because his mother has asked
him not to do it. you can say that
part of that mothers life is still
watching over that boy.
In the broader range we find the
dominating influence of our literary
men, politicians, military leaders and
noted teachers of the land.
England furnishes a very apt illus
tration of literary magnet. There
is the energetic writer Robert Brown
ing. He was a successful mingler in
society, a pleasing cOnversationalist,
and a prodiguOus writer. He was L
man with a brain full of new ideas.
His aim was to have some message III

Literature tells US of his deep cour-
age and faith and thus his strong op-
timism. During his time there were
formed numerous Browning societies,
which constantly gave him much
praise. This proves that he had a
wonderful influence over many of the
people of his time, not only in his OWL
county, but in other countries. Per-
haps if parts of his work were not so
obscure he would have a great deal
more influence on the world than he
does.
Henry Clay was one of the most in
fiuential politicians in the history of
the United States. He was strong,
daring, impulsive and generous being.
But the most commendable trait of
his character was that of doing what

prising to know that he always car
ried his point.
A representative military leader of
our own United States, who is worthy
of mention, is George Washington.
Few words need to be mentioned of
him because he is so widely known. 1t
seems that nearly all of our children
are told of his extreme honesty and
upright life during his youth. Still
later we read of his excellent record
a. a general in the revolutionary war,
and no one ever loses sight of mis-
courage, faith and perseverance dur
irg the winter of Valley Forge. 1t is
certain that no military commander
ever had more influence over his men.
To give justice to the influential
women of the country it is fitting that
We mention as a representative teach

cease to exist.

IN MY STEPS
Essay by Miss Estelle McAteer,
Graduating Class 1920,
Ocala High School

There is in the present generation,
as has been in all past generations, a
lack of emphasis laid on the impor-
tance of personal influence, as it di-
rects the affairs and the lives of men.
However, this has not been altogether
overlooked. In the works of many of
our great man and teachers we find
this one factor stressed. No matter
what kind of story you read, you find
the influence of it's characters. wheth-
er for good or for bad.
You ask why we should put so
much stress on personal influence.
There are many answers to be given.
1t is a factor which dominates the
whole world. wherever there are two
OF more persons associated together.
In reality, it is a great tie which
binds the whole world for better or
for worse. We also find it the most
important element in all society from
the family UP to the nation. It has
been the personal influence of our
great -indirectly-which has
caused the downfall as we'll as the
rise of all mighty nations. This is
one reason why we should make such
a careful study of it, because of it's
vast Importance in the direction of
affairs, as we'll as its effect on indi-
Viduals.
In this enormous world for indi-
viduals we find the good and the evil
influence. No matter how good or
bad a person is and no matter how
young or small, he has an influence
upon the world-directly or Indirect
ly. You may take the worst kind of
person, as the murderer. We know
that he is making a sufficient amount
of impression upon the lives of other
men and boys because there continues
to be murderers on a larger scale
than ever before, 1t seems horrible
to think that some low, degenerate
life should leave black spots of i'm
preston upon the young generation
just coming up. However, it is neces-
sarily true that he is consciously or
unconsciously stamping an influence
of degradation upon the life of some
manly boy who might make a great
character. If these things were not
true there would cease to be such a
vast number of catastrophes.
But there are, on the other hand,
the men and women who stand for the
highest ideals and morals in life. It
is obliged to be true that they are ex-
erting a wide influence over our land.
II it were not true, the evil alone
would rule the world This is the
reason why we see so much unrest
and degeneracy on earth today. The
good is some times unequally balanc-
ed with the evil.
1t is surprising to note the signitl
cant influence of the ordinary. A per-
son must not, of necessity, be ex-
traordinarily bad or extremely ia
nous and great to exert an influence.
You see the babe in the cradle, the
rowdy youngster on the sandpile and
you have to smile. 1t seems that their
presence and life itself feels US with
love and inspiration. Many bright
faced child has softened the heart Of
an Indifferent and merciless charac-
ter. You find that many of our great
poets have been inspired and uplifted
by the peaceful. happy and cheerful
song of some child by the way. Their
faith and hope is invariably renewed
and they have more strength to keep

trying voyage around the world
The world made much of the four hundredth
anniversary of Columbus great discovery. Only
Chile will celebrate this anniversary OF Magellan
Ye: it may be fairly asked: Was not Magel-
Ians achievement the greatest? And II 1T was,
is not Magellan the greatest Of navigators?
To be sure as John Fiske very properly
points out Magellan's voyage has not the unique
historic position of the first voyage of Columbus,
(which brought together two streams of human
life that had been disjonted since the glacial
period"
Columbus sailed to reach the "Spice islands"
and mistakenly believed to his dying day that he
had succeeded Magellan succeeded in doing what
Columbus attempted
Before Magellan met his death in the Philip
pines he had, the first of men, completed the
circle of the EARTH for before setting out on his
VOYAGE to the west he had visited the Far East
in the service of the Portuguese, and had passed
the meridian to which he attained n his last
VOYAGE While he did not live to finish his career
In triumph on the ship which finally reached
Spain after an absence of few days under three
years, he had in his two voyages, one to the east
and the other to the west, made the circuit of the
globe.
So Magean's voyage, considered from the
viewpoint of its scientific results, of voyage of
exploration and of test of courage and endur-
ence seems the greatest achievement in ocean
navigation of all history.
It is fitting that the Chileans should celebrate
this anniversary of this great navigator. Portugal,
his native land, and Spain, under whose flag he
made the great voyage, have been invited to par
ticipate in the celebration
There will be ceremonies both at Punta Arenas
and at the Chilean capital Santiago bronze
statue of Magellan will be set up. Punta Arenas

rather dreary place. inside the wide arm of the

The life of Fernao Magazines, to give him his
Portuguese name, has been as neglected as that of
Columbus has been exploited. Yet of all the
explorers of his time his career offers the least
donht and his voyage was the most carefully
