!. W|T:RE|NE FUTURE.
Her Wonderful Resources
Will Make Her A Leading
Nation, Says DR.. Martin

DR.. Richard 8. Martin of Chicago,
ex-consul to Mexico, gave very in
teresting lecture Sunday evening q:
the Congregational church, in behalf
Of the educational movement for the
spread of education of the American
type over Mexico. A large crowd lie.
tened with rapt attention to the mes.
sage of DR.. Martin.
His subject was Mexico and the
Mexicans, /as Seen by an American" !"
and when he had finished his address
most Of his hearers had new idea
of what the possibilities of this coun.
try to the south of us has,. and what
it might become If properly neigh.
bored by us.
The speaker told of the geography
Of Mexico. 1t is country with $500
miles Of seacoast, both on the Attain
tic and Pacific oceans. Two great
mountain ranges cross the country,
and the intervening valleys are among
the most beautiful in all the world.
These valleys are very fertile, and to
farming after the fashion of 1000
years ago, this soil yields crops that
really rival those produced by Amer
ican farmers in the Mississippi valley.
Wonderful flowers grow in Mexico,
but all native flowers are without per.
fume. That country has hundreds of
native birds, but not a native bird has
a song that it sings
Then DR.. Martin told Of the history
Of the country, of the real successes
Of the Diaz administration and of the
robbery, as he called it, of half the
territory of that country by the Unit
ed States after. the Mexican war. He
noted that our great western world
cost us only $15 100000.
Dr. Martin described the beautiful
cities of Mexico, and told of the won,
derful future of that country as d
mining center. He said that he be-
lieved that her mines alone would
make her leading nation in the not
far distant future. Gold. silver, lead.
tin, and iron are. there in a wonderful
abundance he said.
Mexico needs first education, then
civilization, and then Christianiza-
tion," said DR.. Martin. Only FIVE per
cent of her people can read. and
progress will not come before they
can read and write. ar
In concluding his address, he ex.
planned his educational work. among
the people and asked for little help
from the people of Mt. Vernon. He
received large collection for the cx-
tension of his plans.

SPECIAL TRIBUTE TO
THE OLD SOLDIERS
Lakeland telegram

The survivors of the Confederate
army are fine set of men. They are
cheerful, well kept, rather prosperous
looking, with bright, clear eyes and
an air of independence and self
reliance that distinguishes them from
the average crowd of men of their
age. They were the salt of the earth
in their day.
Mighty few Confederate soldiers
have ever become paupers, inebriates
or habitual criminals Not only in
Florida, but all over the south, when
it is said of man, "He was a Confed-
crate soldier" picture arises of a
clear-cut, keen-eyed, vigorous man.,
possibly with pointed beard and mus
tache, with plenty of good things
around him. and full-sized, some
times diversified, family, every men,
Der of which holds him in the highest
respect. Visitors from foreign lands
have more than once expressed their
surprise at the quality of the men
marching in the U. G. v. parades.
One circumstance which doubtless
contributed its quota to this result is
the fact that, after the civil war, the
soldiers of the south were thrown en-
tirely upon their own resources. They
had lost all they had in hte war. Theq
could look for no bounties or pensions
from the government. 1t was not
worth while to maintain a lobby in
Washington and indulge in day
dreams of what they would do when
Uncle Sam 1oosed his purse strings.
The only thing before them was to
go to work.
And that is. what they did. They
accepted the disadvantages of the
situation cheerfully. If their sword
was too short, they reached further
with the arm; they looked the whole
world in the face, feeling that they
had fought a good fight and had kept
the faith. But they had not finished
their course, and. accepting the maxim
that he is best served who served
himself, they built character, inte-
gritty, courage and new vigor into
the structure of the south.

A Star reporter visiting the fair
grounds at nine o'clock last evening
found everything in hustle and a
hustle, indicative of lively four
days on that particular spot of real
estate. The greatest activity was
manifest in the agricultural building,
where representatives of a dozen live
communities were busy putting their
exhibits in shape. Ii is evident that
Ii community idea has come to the
Marion County Fair to stay. Con
siderable hustling was also being
done in other places. The Johnny
Jones show people had some of thei1
ready and were rapid
" assembling the others. The amuse-
ment program win probably be much
better than for several years.

NOT ALL CONTROL LOST

(St. Petersburg independently
Other newspapers besides the indie
pendent are trying to awaken par
#ents to the sense of resp possibility for
their children's character and con-
duct. The Jacksonville Times Union
says:
"It's all very well to look after the
girls and young women who get into
the meshes of the law, but at the same
time wouldn't it be a good idea to be-
GIN reform with some parents, those
responsible for permitting their off
spring to roam the streets at night,
attend questionable dances and re-
sorts where mischief and wrongdoing
have their inception?"
To this paragraph the 0cala Star
rather pessimistically retorts:
"A good many of said parents can't
help themselves. 1t is the exceptional
father or mother who can control his
or her children after they pass their
sixteenth birthdays"
Not all parents have lost control of
their children. Some still retain au-
thority, even after the children have
reached sixteen years of age. But
there are altogether too few parents
who have a say as to what the boys
and girls can do.
However, the boy or girl who has
been properly reared-who has been
trained in the right way and to re-
spect parental love, wisdom and au-
thority-is not going wrong, except
in rare instances, after reaching six
teen or even twenty years of age.
The training during the first few
years is what counts for most. Get
the children started right and they
viii grow up to be the right kind of
citizens. IF control and discipline is
exercised during the first ten years
of child's life, if the right principles
are inculcated, there is no reason to
worry about the future of the child.
What the boy or girl learns during
the most impressionable years of life
will last until death comes.

"Never surrender the ball on downs"
This cardinal point of football gen
eralship should always be borne in
mind by the quarterbacks and. cap
tains of every gridiron eleven, writes
Walter Eckersall in the Chicago Trib-
une. Although there are some ex-
ceptions to this rule, it should be
followed closely.
If a team is well within an oppo-
nent's five-yard line and has only
short distance-less than a yard-to
make on fourth down it may be good
football to try for touchdown. I'm
der the same conditions, if it is neces-
sary to make two or more yards for
first down or touchdown, other scoring
tactics should be resorted TO.
Team Strong Near Goal.
An attacking team should ALWAYS
remember that the closer it approaches
an opponents goal the harder it is
to make ground. This statement is
true because the secondary defense is
gradually pulled up TO reinforce The
forward line. The offensive team has
practically two lines of defense to pene-
trate, and under these conditions It
takes a mighty good offense with com
plicated plays to make the required
distance of ten yards in four downs
When a team has made a decided
march towards the opponents goal,
members of that team win feel more
satisfied If a scoring chance is taken.
The field goal kicker should be brought
into commission or long chance taken
of completing forward pass back or
