An old friend of ours informs US
that at his place in the country. in one
of his fields. there is dry cistern, so
artfully concealed by nature that
strangers could be in ten feet OF it
and not know it was there. He says
it is big enough to contain an army
sized moonshine still, or enough of
the real stuff to stock an old-time
barroom. If we printed his name and
locality, in less than a week his prem
ises would be raked as tho with a fine
tooth comb. Every thirsty person in
FIVE counties would join in the search.

The Leesburg Commercial saga
ciously discusses the movie censor
ship bill. The Star would favor such
a censorship if it could be sure the
censors would be men and women of
good taste and high character. 1t is
against it because it is practically
certain that the offices would degener-
ate into political jobs. We have a "na-
tional board of censorship" and its
stamp of approval appears on the
most rotten pictures thrown on the
screen.

In his letter TO the Star Friday,
Alderman Thomas said that brick
paving would cost practically $3.50 a
square yard. He probably referred TO
the regular clay brick, such as is now
already down. We have seen samples
of an asphalt brick made in Tampa,
for paving purposes, which we are re-
hably informed can be laid down on
the streets of ocala for from 50 to
$2.O5 yard. But ocala is not able to
pave all its streets with brick even at
that low rate at present. A notable
thing is that, with the exception of
the asphalt, we have all the material
to make this brick right here in Mar
ion county.
