if man is unjustly accused Of being
a Stacker, the best way m the world
to help him clear himself of the
charge is to give the matter publicity.
There are many men who since the
war have left their homes and are now
in other parts of the country or the
world. If their names are published,
it will not be long before their friends
or relatives will know of it, If sucn
a mans name is kept buried in the
files Of the war department, it is
likely TO be some time dug up and the
accusation used against him; mean
while, he is liable TO arrest and i'm
prisonment. If the war department
sends the Star a Stacker list, it will
surely be published, and if any man be
unjustly accused he can have the
Stars by no means weak assistance to
set him right.

HYPNOTKED
THE ENTIRE BUNCH

The Ocala club. gave away several
boxes of fine candy to the ladies but
the gents who had received lemons at
the table were obliged to present the
candy in neat speech and like true
Rotarians they presented the candy.
The bouquet was given to R. ]. Holly
to present to his wife as a recompense
for having to live with such an ugly
husband so long-Sanford Herald.
Bob Holly, like a good sport, tells
the joke on himself. but he overlooked
one very important episode at the
Rote meeting in his town. AS all
Ocala knows, one of our Rotes, Harry
Borland, is a warm wire, and he it was
that awarded the flower presentation
duty to Holly. He also tricked the
entire crowd. including the Orlando
Rotes, into voting for Ocala for the
state capital. While the fun was so
lively that few in the crowd could do
more than watch about half, Harry
arose and said that if the motion just
made had second, he would put it to
vote.
John Taylor, who didn't know what
Harry was driving at, but who well
knew it was always safe to follow
Harry's lead, sang out, 81 second the
motion" Whereupon, Harry put the
motion, and it was carried unanimous.
lily
Not until after this did anybody
have the presence of mind to ASH
what the motion was. Some inquired
of Harry and he promptly replied
"That is the sense of this meeting
''That it is the sense of this meeting
state capital"
Being good sports, the boys accept
ed the joke on themselves.
There's always something sure t.
happen when Harry Borland i!

ENFORCEMENT WILL KILL THEM
(Orlando Reporter-Starl

There is no question but that the en-
forcement Of the Florida Sunday blue
laws impartially 10 make these laws
dead letter and eventually would re-
suit IN their repeal.
In Miami they are going 10 make
the test. 1t all came about because of
Sunday baseball playing. There the
picture shows run the same as they
do on week days. When the picture
shows began TO show Sunday pictures
the same fight was made upon them
So the sheriff said to close the picture
shows he must likewise close all other
places of business, drug stores, res
taurants, cigar stands. garages and
the like. In the course of the opera
ton some of those elamOring for n
closed Sunday were hit when the law
was enforced to the letter, finding
they could not have the law discrimi-
nate in their favor the issue was
finally. dropped and the picture shows
began showing Sunday programs.
Solicitor Pine Of Miami has an
nounced he will close up everything
tight and prosecute every offender of
the law. He said he was uncertain
whether or not the clergy came under
the law. but if so he would apply the
law in their case as he would any
other offender. If juries fail to con-
vict the offenders after prosecution he
will cease to make further arrests, for
arrests without convictions are only
an expense to the people. If the peo-
pie do not want those running their
places of amusement convicted they
are not in sympathy with the law and
further arrests would be folly.
The Sunday blue sky laws are in
direct conflict with the rights granted
the people of the United States by the
constitution, they were run in by SCI
of bigots who would legislate- our re-
iigior for US.
1t is only a few places where they
are enforced to the letter, and but a
matter of time before they are re-
pealed.

The state supreme court has ruled
that the state law prohibiting more
than four quarts of liquor is ones
home has been superseded by the Vol
stead law and consequently is inopera-
tive. 1t is understood, by the lawyers
that the ruling viii pave the way for
action for the return of large guam
titles of liquor which have been seized
in numerous raids since the law was
made. We would give mighty little
for the chances of any man in this
state whose private stock has been
seized since Jan. l, 1919, to recover
any of it.

that the parts for the several states,
