BUSY SOCIAL SEASON IN
PROSPECT FOR BELLEvIEW

Belleview, Nov. 23-The social sea-
son is fast crowding the calendar, as
first one date is announced and then
another, covering entertainments of
various kinds for the winter months.
Just now the most talked Of date is
Dec. 9Th. when a sale of fancy articles
and cafeteria supper, with enter
tainment, viii be the program for
that special Friday evening. This af
fair is no last minute idea, having
been carefully discussed and planned
early last spring by the girls of the
Philathea class of the Baptist church,
directed and assisted by their leader,
Mrs. Ishom /. Strong.
At that time a quilt was decided
upon as the proper needlework for
this particular circle and for weeks
the girls met and pieced quilt squares.
These little meetings each week grew
il enthusiasm and it didn't take long
for the girls to realize there was
more than plain sewing talent among
them and they organized for more
work and appointed Miss Minnie Ire
mere as work director, to be assisted
by Miss Hilda Monroe. Now these
two girls are hustlers, which has al
ready been proven by the amount of
finished fancy articles already on
hand. They not only have done their
part but have kept most all the other
members in the notion and furnished
them with work. And the girls have
made such an impression with htei1
good will and determination to sue.

buttons have come in from outside

A solemn pledge, ratified by our
government, that the United States
would side with France, in case of an
unprovoked attack on that nation by
another power, would be among the
strongest guarantees for world peace
and Americas greatest security

the sea.

Christians and pagans, Jews and
Gentiles, Catholics and Protestants,
before denouncing each other should
remember that the Almighty has al
lowed each of their sects to live and
make converts thru hundreds and
thru thousands of years. It would
be strange indeed If in the scores of
centuries since mans first conception
OF religion, soul-saving truth had
been given to only a few of the bill
ions who have lived and died.

The feline is out of the wallet. The
Star has at least emerged from its
low visibility and admitted that its
motive in opposing further operation
OF the O. v. is because when the little
hay burners are tied to the rails near
Silver Springs. Ocala gets more trade,
trade that formerly rode the o. v.
into Palatka to do their trading.
We're pulling on the other end of the
rope. We want them over here

Again the News misrepresents the
Star, and again it evades the ques-
tom. The Star has not opposed fur
Their operation of the o. ", and this
time the News has no excuse for say
ing SO. If Palatka doesn't want help
from Ocala in making the O. v. Q

tioHI after delegation over here to ash
help? But if Palatka thinks she car

her way. Go to it, Friend Query.

- The people of Ocala had come to
the conclusion that John Martin
made good street superintendent
and are noting the censure heaped
upon him with surprise. Luckily for
Mr.. Martin there are many concrete
evidences of his work. That rock
crusher, for instance, moved across
the town, and again set up right be-
side the rock supply, has saved and
will save the city many thousands of
dollars. Solving the Fourth street
problem in the simplest and most eff
ficacious way, sloping the street to its
natural fall, thereby delivering not
only local property holders but the
primary school and all that part OF
town from the marsh that has affiict-
ed it for twenty-five years, is another
proof of his good management. II
street work that he did has worn out
It Is because of the material he had
to work with. That portion OF
Dougherty street, between Oklawahs
! and Adams. where the property own
ers and the Lake Weir Sand Company
helped furnish the material, the only
= piece of street work in which Mr.
Martin had a chance to show what. h.
could do, is fulfilling all that wa

Tongue Glove.

A glove for the tongue has been
newly patented by Galley Guise Of
Riley. Ind. He calls 1t tongue
shield" and 1t is designed to enable
the wearer to escape the unpleasant
ness of castor oil or other bad tasting
medicine.
The contrivance might be said to
have the shape of miniature slip
per without any heel portion. but when
placed over the tongue is inverted.
The tongue Is inserted into the "toe"
part and the back part of the sole"
extends over the top of the tongue to-
ward the throat.
The device is made of thin sheet
rubber. SO as to be liquid proof. and
is so constructed as to fit the tongue
snugly without discomfort. When
medicine is taken 1t passes into the
throat without affecting the sense of
taste. so that all unpleasantness is OBJ
Waited.

SURE ONE SIGN is CORRECT
Worried indianapolis Man 10 Very
Glad to Let Things Remain
on That Basis.

When Wallace o. Lee, chairman Of
the publicity committee for the Gypsy
Smith revival arrangements, ordered
the big sign on the front Of the wood
en- tabernacle opposite the city hall.
he told the sign man to spell It
"Gipsy."
After It was painted and set up.
somebody told Wallace that he was
all wrong-that the first syllable
should have been spelled with a ~
instead Of an "i." So when Wallace
the other day ordered 1852 signs boost
ing the campaign. to be sent to evan
gelistic churches In the county, he
told the sign man to spell 1t Gypsy"
Then various ministers worried Mr..
Lee by calling him up and saying that
although they were glad to get the
sign. and SO on. still-well, what they
were trying to hint politely was that
what Wallace didn't know about SPELL
ing would have filled a bigger book
than the unabridged.
So the harassed booster dug out a
dictionary and 10. 1t said that the
word. as common noun at least,
may be spelled either way without en-
dangering the peace and dignity Of
the state.
And then along comes q letter from
the evangelist himself and his sigma
ture read "Gipsy Smith,"
Well, anyway. one sign is right

maxim corky" a pseudonym.

Maxim Gorky," who was reported
to be on his way to England on a
visit to Fl. G. Wells. but is still held
up by the Bolshevist authorities on the
frontier, is Alexei Pyeshkof. the poet
and chronicler of pariahs and vaga-
bonds of Russian society.
"Gorky" means "bitter." The full
name, Maxim Gorky," may, perhaps,
be read to mean "the bitterest of the
bitter" The pseudonym effectively
symbolizes Pyeshkofs attitude to-
ward life, for his fiction Is distilled es-
sence of the disappointed.
He was not at first a Bolshevik. and
he seems only to have Joined the Boil
shevist ranks under pressure. Given
his choice between low diet and high
office. he preferred the latter which
is one. happily, that does not require
him to take any active part In the per
petration Of atrocities.-Living Age.

The Forest

No. 2. By Peter Gardner.
The Forest
Trees start from seeds which are
in cone. The cone is burned up
ward on the branch and a flower
drops the liquid in the cracks until
they are completely filled then it
burns down and drops off. Each seed
has wing and it is blown around by
the wind. Only a few seeds find a
suitable place to grow. A tree under
three feet is called a Seeding. A
tree is composed of three different
parts which are roots, trunk and
crown, the crown being the most i'm
portant part because it digests the
food and breaks the carbonic. acid
gas.
A trees growth in diameter is
caused by thick fluid called cam
blum layer. Each year layer of
wood is formed by the cambium lay
er; thus trees age is ascertained.
In case of drought trees age can
not be found accurately.
The height of a tree is due to the
bud on top of the tree. Every year
the bud sends up a sprout and at the
end of the year there is bud on
this sprout. The cambium layer de-
velops each joint yearly.
A knot in log is caused by nat
ural pruning which is due to sunlight
being shut out from branch which
dies and is covered by the cambium
layer. Trees are used for lumber
and fuel and they afford good camp
ing places and living places for wild
animals.
The enemies of the forest are: fire,
wind, lightning, and fungi. Fire is
the worst enemy and its causes are
| lightning, campfires, sparks from To-
comotives and sawmills and careless
smokers.
Patrollmen, lookout stations and
watch towers are provided for the
protection of the forests. Every
patrollman has a telephone with
which he can call help to put out 9
fire.
| If it is necessary to light a match
| in the forest it should always be
broken, because if it is too hot tt
break it is too hot to throw into the
debris of the forest.
The three different kinds of fires
are: ground, surface and crown. The
crown fire is the most destructive
but the ground fire is hardest to .ex.
tinguish. Tool boxes are provided
for fire-fghting. If a surface fire is
found get green branches from a tree
or sacks from a tool box and wet
them if possible. Strike the fire but
never strike straight down, but strike
inward so the sparks will not spread.
If there is water close fill a water
bag from the tool box and pour the
water ON the Goals at the edge of the
fire instead of on the flames. A
ground fire may be extinguished by
digging trench around the fire.
Crown fires are nearly always started
from sparks from surface or ground
fire.
Fire lines are cut to check crown
firing, but this should only be done
by experienced men. To back-fire
you start fire on line and leave it
burn toward the other fire.
