NEW CONSTITUTION
FOR The ROTARIANS

Aiming more than score of ma
tions for greater service to them
selves and to the ;ndiv:e4al communi-
ties among theIe as well as to the
world at large is the way the men,
bers of the constitutional convention
committee of Rotary international
call the work they concluded at the
Chicago Beach Hotel, Chicago, ILL.,, at
midnight Sunday. NeyeE2ser 20, when

and of England. s-eie..-i. Scotland,
Canada and Cuba toiled over the va
rious aspects of the "w1ls eases" and
sit is oTdained-s" that go into every
well regulated constitution. And at
the conclusion OF tie work, in shirt
sleeves and with the beaded brows
and ruffled locl.s of the honest work
er they declaf red they had fought a
good fight and had turned out what
they believe will be real constitu-
tion and real set of bylaws that
will serve the international movement
of service for many years to come.
The constitution and bylaws they
have evolved after the week of toll
will be submitted to the individual
Rotary clubs of the world for COM

fore the annual international eonven-

be held this year in Los Angeles.
The meeting of the committee was
an international gathering in every
sense of the world. The Rotary Clubs

CHRISTENSEN HAS
D. Y. IN CHARGE
New Receiver for the Much Battered
Little Railroad Appointed By
Judge Bullock Sunday Night

Sunday night, Circuit Judge Bull
lock appointed Andrew Christensen Of
New York receiver of the Oklawaha
Valley railroad in place of Mr.. II. S.
Cummings of Rodman, who has held
that office for the last four~years.
Mr.. Christensen was going to Pa
latka with his papers to take charge
of the road. but was informed that an
o. v. train with Mr.. Cummings on
board would come to Silver Springs
today, so he will probably meet Mr..
Cummings either in Ocala or at the
springs.
1t will probably be rude jolt to
Mr.. Cummings, after all the trouble
he has been to, in the last few weeks
10 raise money to pay the back taxes
of the road, to have its control taken
out of his hands, and his friends will
sympathize with him.
Mr.. Christensen represents the
owners of the road. In brief inter
view with Star reporter this morn
ing he said that i: was his intention
to keep the road in operation and
eventually to turn it over to the
owners in better shape than it has
been in for years. To that end, he de-
sires the cooperation of Ocala and
Palatka, and the communities along
the line.
The o. v. owes the Seaboard $1,000
for track rent, and the Seaboard will
not allow it to use its track into
Ocala until the money is paid. 1t is
hoped that this will soon be arranged,
meantime the o. V. trains will come
to Silver Springs.
The Star hopes Ocala will give the
little road as much business as possi-
| BILE, for if it can be kept in operation
| for a few years increasing population
along the line will make it an impor-
tant and paying part of the state
railroad system.

COLORED MAN ON THE
NEW YORK COUNCIL
ASSOCIATED Press1

New York, Nov. 2S.-From cattle
boy to city solon and newspaper pub
lisher-traveling altogether "on his
own"-this epitomizes the career of
John w. Harris, the only negro men,
ber-elect of the New York board of
aldermen, which will be seated Janu-
airy 1st.
Born in Topeka, Kansas, and reared
il the saddle on large cattle ranch,
Harris easily felt the urge for higher
things. The little circumstance of
being broke did not prevent him from
coming east. He worked his way.
Upon his arrival, he also found ways
and means of working his way thru
Harvard University, being graduated
in 1907 and attending Harvard law
school for two years.
Encouraged by the managing edi-
tor of Boston newspaper for which
he had written special articles, Har-
ris determined to abandon the law
for journalism, and at the instigation
| of Booker T. Washington, came to
New York to start a newspaper for
his own race. He founded and now
is editor and owner of the New York
News, a paper confined largely to
colored people, but covering the local
field.
Two years ago he determined to
seek Office as alderman from the Har-
lem "black belt" He was elected and
his work for the interests of his COM
munity earned him reelection at the
recent municipal election.

E. w. Davis, counsel for the defense,
requested the court to make the noon
recess as long as possible in order to
allow Miss Clark time to rest as she

mean she would go on the stand this
afternoon in her own defense and Mr..

BIGGEST THIS YEAR
Orlando Mans Comment on the Mar
ion County Fair
(Orlando Reporter-Star)

''The biggest thing pulled off so far
this year." said Mr.. G. E. Howard,
secretary of the Sub-Tropical Mid
Winter Fair, "is the final guarantee
that Marion county will show with US
N the February fair, thus making
our fve-county fair six-county fair"
Mr.. Howard has been working with
the officials of the Marion County Fair
ever since he had them visit our fair
last February, visiting Ocala last
spring for this purpose and again
this week when he attended the Mar
ion County Fair.
There is no question but Marion
county has the best county fair in the
state and this year was no exception,
said Mr.. Howard. Of course, their
stock show is always fine for they
have some of the best registered stock
in the south.
And their agricultural department
is of the very finest, and so are all
other features. 1t will add material
ly to our fair to have those splendid
exhibits set up in our buildings and
elaborate arrangements will be made
to accommodate them.
Mr.. Howard found the officials of
the Marion fair a fine set of up-to-
date gentlemen. He had meeting
with them Friday, Messrs. ]. c.
Johnson, president; j. A. Talton, vice
president; E. C. Bennett, secretary
and treasurer, and County Agent K.
C. Moore. manager, and at that meet
ing they made the final plans to be-
come identified with our fair.
This is a distinctive advantage and
insures us that though it was thought
we had reached the zenith of success
ir the last fair, the coming fair will
beat them all, according to Mr.. How
ard.
