SALMON SUPPER

Mr. Walter Ray. than whom no man
likes better to have his friendssaround
him, gave a lucky bunch of said
friends salmon supper at the Union
Station Restaurant Tuesday evening.
The fortunate guests were Rev. w. F..
Creson, Judge w. S. Bullock, DR.. E.
6. Peek and Messrs d. E. McIver, j.
II. Therrell, Mack Taylor, Arthur
Cobb, H. M. Hampton, Roger Dodd,
Harry Borland. w. W. Condor, A. L.
Mckay, Carl Ray and j. H. Benja-
min. Mr.. Ray has friends on both
sides of the continent as well as some
in the middle, and one, living in Seat
tie, away over on the Pacific coast,
sent him some of the biggest, finest
salmon ever caught in that fish
favored region. He turned them over
to Mr.. W. NJ. Davidson of the railroad
restaurant to prepare for the delecta-
tion of his friends, and Shorty" who
takes an artistic as well as a human
interest in such affairs, certainly car
ried out his contract to the nth degree
Mr.. Ray and his guests sat down to
their feast at eight o'clock. The sal
mon, cooked to a turn, made the piece
de resistance and with them went
really, truly corn pone. potatoes, cell
cry. peas, salad and coffee. This was
che first time most of the guests had
ever tasted any but canned salmon,
and while the canned product is a
delicacy it simply isn't in it with the
| fish which, sent catecornered across
the continent, were as fresh as the
hour they We're pulled out of the wa
ter in Puget Sound
The viands disposed of, smokes and
talks followed There was a box of
fine cigars, but it was missing; but
after diligent search it was found on
Harry Borland's lap. This must have
been an oversight, for Harry's dislike
for cigars is well known. DR.. Peek,
the successful candidate for mayor
was called on for speech and hap
PLY responded. Mr.. d. E. McIver was
also called on, and spoke up like a
good old sport. There wasn't any
happier man at the table than Mr.
Mac. Most of the other feasters had
some appropriate words to say, anC
after warm congratulations to MIR
Ray, and sincere hopes he would soor
have some more salmon, they depart
ed, happy and well filed, to theil
homes.

BOARD OF TRADE Will
MEET AND ADJOURN
Trade Body Decides That 1t Will Not
Run in Opposition to the
Minstrel Show

Because of the fact that there will
be minstrel at the theater next
Thursday night, Dee. 22nd, it has been
decided that the Board of Trade will
meet that night at 8 o'clock as sched-
uled and Immediately adjourn the
meeting to Friday night at the same
hour. 1t is because of the frequent
occurrence of other meetings and at
fractions in the city on the regular
meeting night of the Board of Trade,
that the secretary will recommend a
change in the bylaws to provide for
the fixing of the dates of meeting by
the board of governors, with not less
than one meeting every three months.
At the meeting next Friday night,
the members of The Board of Trade
will be asked to discuss plans for 1922
and to consider several amendments to
the constitution and bylaws. Among
the amendments proposed is change
of the name of the organization from
Marion County Board of Trade to the
Marion County Chamber of Commerce.
The change to the title of chamber of
commerce is being made by many
commercial bodies throughout the
country and a number of changes
have recently been made in Florida.
BY far the largest number Of CONNER
cial organizations in the country have
adopted the title chamber of COM
nierce, and this title has become very
generally associated with organiza-
tions doing civic as well as CONNER
cial and Industrial work. The title
board of trade and similar titles are
usually associated with bodies whose
primary object is purely commercial
and therefore is limited in scope.

New York, Dec: 1.-THE secret of
what makes the hot dog wild is out.
New York's frankfurter taste was al
ways strong but recently the police
at Madison Square Garden during the
six-day bicycle race were unable to
understand why certain vendors had
on trouble in disposing of their entire
kennels at 80 cents per dog. The au-
thorities were considering some means
for stopping profteering when one
policeman purchased a round and
upon puncturing 1t, found pure moon
shine Now the police are casting a
mean eye at every hot dog in town.

THREE COMPANIES AZ ONCE
ORAL HYGIENE ADVOCATED
BEFORE THE ROTARY CLUB

Major Harry Butler OF the United
States Pablic Health Service, who is
now making a survey of oral hygiene
among the children of the public
schools in the city, was a guest yes
terday at the regular weekly lunch
con of the ocala RI tary Club. Major
Butler made a most interesting and
instructive address on the Importance
of oral hygiene as means to disease
prevention, saying that the public
schools should be operated on busi-
ness basis and comparing the schools
to stock company in which the
citizens and community are interested
as stock holders. He urged that the
citizens and members of the Rotary
Club in particular take the same in
terest in the schools that they would
in any other institution in which they
make investment.
"The United States Public Health
Service has found that there is a very
definite relationship between the con-
dition of the mouth Of the child and
the efficiency of the child as a stud
ent, said DR.. Butler. at never fails
to be true that the child with a poor
mouth condition is also poor in school
work"
Major Butler stated that a reduc-
tion of the inefhciency of the student
reduces the cost of operating the
schools and he called attention espe-
cially to the number of. children who
are each year repeating grades due to
their poor work He stated that in
Bridgeport, Conn, campaign Of oral
hygiene had reduced the retardation
of the children in the schools of that
city 80 per cent, thus greatly benefit
ing the children and at the same time
reducing the cost of operating the
schools
"The mouth Is the gate by which
the great majority Of diseases enter
the system" said Major Butler. The
officer stated that the introduction Of
physical training at the high school IN
Ocala was a splendid thing. He stated,
however, that while the physical train
ing built up the bodies of the children,
and gave the children greater power
of resistance to disease, it was more
important that the germs which cause
the diseases should be attacked from
the front. He stated that the mouth
is the first line trench of the germs
which enter the system and that the
attack should be made on this first
line line trench, and at the same time
that support should be given this at
tack by the development resulting
from physical training. He advocated
the introduction III the schools Of a
tooth brush drill. The major said that
the drill sounded foolish but that il
was Of great Importance In instruct
| ing children how to use the tooth
brush properly and IN forming habit
Of using a tooth brush. In Cleveland
4 he stated that tooth brush drills were
conducted to the accompaniment OF
music.
