OUR PRIMARY SCHOOL

A Star reporter attended the exer-
cises this morning at the primary
school and every minute spent there
was most interesting and enjoyable.
There are probably very few in Ocala
who know what splendid primary
school we have and we daresay that
those with children, who should be
most interested, realize the good
training that is being given. The
principal, Miss Nellie Stevens, stands
second to none in the state, for she
has for years been recognized among
the best, and she has able assist
ants. Miss Andrews, Miss Marsh and
Miss Collie Clark teach the first grade,
Miss Fannie Clark (who needs no in
troduction) and Miss Edith Griffin,
are the second grade teachers, and
the third grade is in charge of Miss,
Mabel Meffert, Miss Mary Gale and
Miss Demetrie of Gainesville, who
though teacher for the first year is
doing good work. All these ladies are
most interested in their work, which
is proven by the good results. Miss
Marsh has charge of the music and
the manner in which the little folks
sing testifies that she is well suited
for this line of training. The reporter
was present when the first bell rang,
which summoned the children to line
up and march into the schoouhouse.
This was done in the best of order and
to the beating of drums by two of the
third grade boys the pupils marched
to their classrooms. Twice a week,
Wednesdays and Thursdays, the three
grades ahold their early morning ex-
ercises togetRex in one room and the
exercises held are always the result
of the studies. For instance, this
months lessons are mapped out un-
der loyalty and the exercises this
morning consisted of patriotic songs,
such as america" "Star Spangled
Banner and FLORIDA. My Florida"
To see the bright and enthusiastic
little faces of the children as they
sang every word of the songs intelll-
gently and patriotically was as big a
treat as any one would desire. As the
pupils marched in there were two boys
on the porch above the entrance up.
stairs holding a large American flag
afloat Another effective display wa.
the marching in of two boys with flag:
in the main room, where all were as
sembled for the exercises. These boy.
were met by one young soldier, wht
made a salute to the flag, which wa.
followed by salute by all the pupils.
In conclusion patriotic declaration
was recited by the entire school which
was exceedingly instructive and in
teresting to hear. These exercises d,
not take more than fifteen minute
and besides being enjoyable are mos
beneficial. Our time spent there wa
most pleasant

Washington's birthday was well

going to his competitor who can give
them his time or keep his engage
ments with them. If only we could
realize as a race how much really de-
pends upon our attending strictly to
business we would not be making so
many lamentable excuses and COM
plants.
II we were as prompt and eager
to keep business engagement, no
matter how small or insignificant,
as we are to keep pleasure engage
ment we would not be 50 far behind
the other races who are succeeding
in business.
We can positively saySthat there is
not another race of people that de-
sires more to putronize our Negro
business and professional men, but
become so exasperatingly disguised
at their lack of business promptitude
and faithfulness in making good
in other words Keeping Their Word.
So much valuable, precious time.
so many golden hours are actually
fitted away by us when we really
know better and are actually ashamed
when we come to ourselves and see
whittier we have allowed ourselves
to drift in search of little pleasure.
Let us realize that IL Is not pleasure
that makes a race, but rather IL is
business that will elevate us in the
eyes of the opposite race and cause
the prejudice and hatred to fade
away.
That a man may be fully rounded
out and the better prepared to attend
to business it is necessary for him to
have some pleasure, but not TO the
total and absolute expense of his
business. A business engagement
should he paramount to any and all
social engagements. We would
hardly believe that a young man
would throw up his job to attend a
one night social stand, yet often has
such thing happened. Society has
a tendency to make some men and
women mere flippants, while bust
ness tends to make most men and
women solid, dependable and worth
while.
The sooner we realize that one OF
the main elements in the formation
of character and real business sue
cess is to be man of your word
a man who, when he makes an en-
gagement can be depended upon to
keep it, the sooner our race will rise
to a higher level.

BUSINESS VS..
PLEASURE
IT HERE is nothing which marks

~ HERE is nothing which marks
the progress of a people more
than the character and success
of its business men and women. There
is nothing more helpful to II success
full business man than clean, healthy,
Legitimate pleasure.
Business and pleasure are two
great essentials in life's progress, but
they do not go together. They do
not seem to mix well. When busi-
ness and pleasure run amuck, the
business is completely knocked out
and consequently the pleasure fades
into gloom.
If a careful survey of all the busi-
ness failures were taken we could
safely say that the greater per cent
of the failures could be traced to a
reckless neglect of the business be-
cause of a wantonless, craving desire
for pleasure at the wrong time.
Business is most a peculiar some
thing.
1t is like fairy that must be often
attended, petted and carressed or
else it takes flight and is gone. Busi-
ness brings pleasure, but we are not
aware that pleasure brings business.
Too often we are wont to disregard
or defer important business engage
ments for a few passing moments of
ina ginary pleasure. Society is the
greatest enemy to business that we
can possibly name. Many business
men get the false idea that to be
come a social hero or society leader
among the fair sex, with frequent in
vitations to dine, dance or take
hand at cards means business fame
but he will soon become disilluSloneo
when he finds his clients or patrons
