PRESENTATION OF
A NOVEL PLAN
For the Better Development of State
and County VIII be Offered to
the Board of Trade

A novel plan for the development
OF the county will be presented at the
regular meeting of the Marion County
Board OF Trade, tomorrow night. at
O'Clock. The plan is based on the fact
that the best publicity for any commu-
nifty is to be obtained by making i'm
provements that viii provide news
copy for the newspapers and maga-
zlres- The most successful advertis-
ing that is being done today, whether
of commodity or of a community, is
being done after the thing to be ad-
vertlsed has been put in condition to
get the best results. All defects must
be reduced to an absolute minimum
and the good qualities nuts be en-
hanced so as to provide the most eff
fective and the greatest number of
talking points. The plan which will
be presented tomorrow night to the
members of the Board of Trade will
seek to remedy one of the>most SER
icus shortcomings of the county. This
shortcoming seriously offsets the won
derful attractions and advantages of
this section of the state and which
ought not to exist in county which is
in fact the best all-around agricultural
county in Florida.
Other important matters will come
before tomorrow nights meeting This
is the first meeting TO be held follow
ing the election Of new officers for
1920. There will be some important
committee reports, and the announce
ment of new committees. The men,
bers will be asked to decide whether
they favor the national highway sys-
tom which would provide highways In
every state, to be controlled and
maintained by the federal govern
ment.

A POLITICAL CONVERSION

Editor Star: A few months ago a
newspaper in West Florida published
statement that q certain Florida
politician was delousing himself-not
literally, of course, but figuratively
or, rather politically speaking. While
religiously he does not believe in the
use of much water IN a mere matter
of ceremony, in this case it was con-
cluded that sprinkling was too home
opathic, and he had himself immersed
in a political dipping vat (also
figure of speech) for the eradication
of certain feline tendencies acquired
by contact and association.
An Ocala man assures me that the
treatment was entirely successful,
that there remain no traces OF hypoc-
risy, demagogism or nepotism; IN
fact, he was practically immune to the
latter malady anyway. as ne had no
sons or sons-in-law. He 10 giving his
support to said politician for Office,
because the politician dearly loves the
people or loves the dear people. for
got which; anyway it is so. because
the politician personally told him SO.
Verify this mans faith exceeds that
Of pharisees and scribes. and has be-
come as that of little child.

thing about you may shatter. you may

FLIERS HAVE FITTED

After a three-days' visit to Ocala,
pleasant both to them and the peo-
pie they met, the aviators of Wrig-
ley's flying circus departed today,
winging their way to Palatka, where
Mr. Hammond preceded them yester-
day.
A great many people went out to
the Anthony Farms yesterday, to see
the flyers go up and return. A num-
Der went up, among them Misses An
ME Benton Fuller and Majorie Howell
and Messrs. F. E. Harris and F. E.
Harris Jr.. Harry Shaw. Whit Pal
mer. N. P. Preer. f. T. Adams and
Harley Marsh. Mr. Bruce Meffert and
perhaps some others few this morn
ing. All who took the trip enjoyed it
very much and are anxious to go
again. The aviators looped the dread
ed loop with them all, but they report
it rather an enjoyable experience.
Some of them came over Ocala and
the others went birdhunting. 1t is re-
ported that every hawk in the vicinity
of the Anthony Farms has been scar
ed plumb out of the county.
The Wrigley pilots and mechanic
ians are an extra-intelligent and clev-
er set of young men. and Ocala will be
glad to see them again.

J. B. HAYES

We deeply regret to chronicle the
death of one of our esteemed citizens,
Mr.. J. B. Hayes of the firm of Hayes
& Guynn, who passed away at the
Marion County Hospital this morning.
He had been sick for about twelve
days with a deep cold and fever,
which developed into pneumonia.
Mr.. Hayes was born in Pelham, Ga,
in 1883 of a fine old Georgia family.
He came to Florida some fifteen years
ago, living first in Jacksonville,
where he met and married Miss jamie
Guynn. From this happy union was
born one little girl, Mary Lena, who
was the idol of her fond father.
Twelve years ago Mr.. Hayes came to
Ocala and was for some time manager
of one of the departments of the Fl. b.
Masters store.
In 1908 he embarked in business
for himself with his brother-in-law,
Mr.. J. ] .Guynn, and the firm has had
fine success from the beginning. owing
to the upright dealing and honest con-
duct of its affairs
In character Mr.. Hayes was above
reproach. He was a devoted husband
and father, kind neighbor, good
citizen and a man most loved by those
who knew him best. He had but re-
Gently purchased a commodious home
on Fort King avenue. and as far as
human reason could reckon bid fair
to have long, happy and prosperous
life. but the All Wise Father has de-
creed that he come up higher, and he
has gone to tha reward of all good
men.
His grief stricken young widow and
little daughter have the tender SYM
pathy of large circle of friends.
The funeral services will be held at
the residence tomorrow at p. m
McIver & MacKay have charge of the
arrangements.

ENGLISH SENTIMENT
TOWARD AMERICA
Special Correspondence of the New
York Times

Special Correspondence of the New
York Times
London, Feb. 81 met the prime
minister, Mr.. David Lloyd George,
casually in Downing street today. He
Was coming out from luncheon and
asked him what he thought of Lord
Grey's letter. He replied:
81 might have hopes. from the Eu-
ropean standpoint. as to what America
might see her way to do, especially in
view of the value of time, but could
never put myself in the position of ad-
vising her about her business.
"Lord Grey's letter was a different
matter. 1t was in the nature of re-
port to the British public on what he
had observed during his stay in Am
erica and to give them a clearer un-
derstanding of conditions over there.
"I will tell you what I feel about
American" continued the prime min
lister. "She came into the war at a
time when the need for her coming
was most urgent. Her coming was
like an avalache. The world has never
seen anything like it. Her great army
of all ranks gave service that no
man would in 1917 have believed DOS
sible. The effort of her navy was be-
ycnd praise. The president and the
whole administration at Washington,
and every branch of American CO.
operation everywhere worked closely
and effectively with the European eff
fcrt against Germany. And, finally,
the great American people put every
ounce of their invincible might into
the war 5000 miles AWAY war on
issues at first strange to them and Of
fering no direct or immediate menace
to their interests.
"And now can only say that /
trust them. trust their fairness and
their sound judgment. And whether
they come in or stand aloof, even If
they never gave anything more than
they have already given, they would
leave Great Britain and the whole of
Europe under debt of gratitude thar
can never be repaid"
When Mr.. Lloyd George had finish
ed his remarks he said:
"I am not being interviewed. / am
simply telling you my personal feel
ings."
