PUBLIC SPIRIT SHOWN BY
CHILDREN AND PARENTS

The committee on "Interior Deco
ration and Equipment of the Public
Schools of the Parent-Teacher Asso-
citation, wishes to thank the children
of the school and their parents for the
splendid way in which they have CO.
operated with them in their work
This committee was appointed the
first of March and has not had very
much time in which to work, but feels
like splendid work has been started
In their request for books for the
library in the primary school, over
zoo were given which have been filed
for use by the children. The children
in Mrs. Hensley's division of the
third grade brought the largest num-
ber of books and the committee has
given to this room a book in appre-
citation of their efforts.
This committee wishes to thank
Miss Mary Mcdowell and her mother
for the globe given to the seventh
grade for use in the study of geogra-
ply. This grade is also in great need
of charts for the study of physiology.
If anyone has any they can give, this
grade and the committee will greatly
appreciate them.
Friday morning this committee met
at the primary school to decide which
room had the best collective exhibit of
plants grown by the children at home
and brought to the school on that day.
Seed had been given them by the
teachers the first of March and these
had been taken home by the children,
planted, and attended to by them. Mrs:
Osborne, president of the association,
had offered prize of picture to the
room having the best collective ex-
hibit of these plants. Since the chill
dren had had such a short time in
which to grow these, the results were
very gratifying, and it was hard to
decide which exhibit was the best. The
healthiest plant in the first grade,
Miss Collie Clark teacher, was a be-
gonia grown by j. D. Williams; from
the first grade, Miss Eunice Marsh
teacher, was saliva grown by Peggy
Livingston; from the first grade. Miss
Fannie Clark teacher, a verbena
grown by Foy Tally. In the second
grade, Miss Edith Griffin teacher, the
best plants were nasturtiums grown
byIrene Gilmore; in the second grade,
taught by Miss Lula Griffin. Charles
Blankenship had the best plants. a
box of nasturtiums. In the third grade
taught by Mrs. Hensley, the best
plant was zinnia grown by Howard
Bilbro. In the third grade division
taught by Miss Mabel Meffert, Louis
Marsh had the best plants, pot of
nasturtiums. To each of these chill
dren, in order to encourage them, Mrs.
Osborne gave beautiful little hand
colcred scene.
Miss Lula Griffin's division of the
second grade had the best collective
exhibit of these plants and to this
room was presented beautiful pic
ture of George Washington.

Mcintosh, Fla, May 9th.
Editor Star: How true it is that
'"No man knoweth what a day will
bring forth" We know not today
what is in store for us tomorrow. A
very great and pleasant surprise came
to me last Tuesday. Sitting in the
Munroe & Chambiss Bank, little
lonesome as ! had nothing to do, and
was waiting for the opening session
of the horticultural society. | was
loafng and all others were busy.
Louis ChaZal came to me and said the
Rotary Club wishes you to take lunch
with it today. Not having an idea of
what Rotary luncheon meant, / az
cepted the invitation and Louis said,
81 will be here for you at about l p.
M" and he was there on time Pretty
soon Harry Borland came to me and
said the Rotary Club wishes you to
join it at luncheon today, and | began
to feel especially honored | was bit
surprised when | saw the bunch of
Rotes begin to gather in front of the
hall and it caused be to wonder what
a Rotary lunch meant and before It
was over / learned. | was at social
gathering of boys. No matter if some
heads had been whitened by passing
years, the prayer "Make me a child
again just for tonight" seemed to be
answered during that short hour of
the Rotary luncheon. | assure you it
was a short hour. Aside from the
forgetting of age. which of itself is
good, exceedingly good. there was eve
ry moment something that told of the
unity of purpose in a continuous eff
fort to build up a community feeling,
to work in harmony for the advance
ment and good of the town and not
only the town of Ocala but to aid IN
the making of better world. When
so many of the business men of Ocala
can meet together for a weekly hour
of good fellowship, it means the build
ing up of Ocala, and | hope they will
continue to reach out and when they
find a farmer in Ocala ask him to
spend the hour with them. | am sure
it will make all who may be so favor
ed feel much greater degree of con-
fidence in the business men of Ocala.
They will see for that hour an aban-
donment of selfShness and will go
back to their homes feeling that +he

from all business cares and other
worries cannot be other than benefc-

PROSPECT PLEASES

Editor Star: l feel good over the
prospect of paved streets in Ocala. 1t
is the only way for our citizens TO
make a city of our town. Many Of US
have property to sell and no one 70
buy The main reason is the condi-
tiOn Of our lime streets and no per-
manent remedy for this condition but
to apply the flint chips and asphalt
that will stop the expense of hauling
lime from day to day on the same
streets and will enable the city cour-
Gil to build lime streets that are so
much needed where now there is moth
ing but sand and get no attention.
The asphalt streets will stop the dis
agreeable lime dust where there is so
much travel. | have carefully looked
into the expense of the asphalt pave
ment for the streets named by the
council to be paved and am convinced
that they will be paved as stated.
Therefore to make this short | would
kindly advise my friends to vote for
bonds next Tuesday to pave the
streets designated and in a very few
years we will be so we'll pleased we
will vote more bonds and pave all the
streets. Let's go forward like Or
lando and other towns. -

He will play one of his most success
full compositions, 1.-The Canarie Ca

garded by critics as a masterpiece of

as trying to tell of the songs of birds.
You must hear both to appreciate
