MOTOR CLUB IS
BOOSTING MARION
Some Valuable Publicity Obtained By
1t for Our County, Particu-
larly Silver Springs

The Marion County Motor Club has
obtained some very valuable publicity
for Ocala and Marion county and for
Silver Springs in particular. The Sep
tember issue Of the American Motor
ist devotes its leading article to Flor
ida. The article is entitled Finding
New Fountain of YOUTH" and de-
scribes a route in the form Of an ir-
regular horseshoe over which tourists
may travel into and out of the state.
Among the illustrations is fine view
of Silver Springs with the caption,
Excursion Crowd at Silver Springs,
the Largest Springs in the World,
Near Ocala, Florida" A second pho
tograph carries the title: ga Beautiful
Drive Near Lakeland, Florida" Some
body erred in this, for the picture is
that Of Lovers Lane on the Silver
Springs road in Ocala. 1t is surpris-
ing, by the way, how many photo
graphs of Marion county scenes are
used to illustrate write-ups of other
parts of Florida. This has been par
ticularly true of agricultural scenes.
The article in the American Motor
ist, by Mr.. Geo. F. Worts, noted short
story writer and novelist, and pub
licity director for the A. A. A. in this
state, in describing the new motor
routes thru Florida, says:
"Near Ocala is situated the largest
springs known in the world-Silver
Springs-fiowing enough water every
twenty-four hours to furnish every
man and woman in the United States
with five gallons. 1t is some spring"
The article knocks in the head the
myth that Florida has no variety of
scenery, and describes the interior Of
the state with its hills and valleys,
lakes and streams, and its highways
with long grades and winding curves.
The publicity department of the Mar
ion County Motor Club claims re-
sponsibility for this as it furnished
information to the A. A. A. in this
connection, pointing out that the open
ing of a central route into and out of
the state will change many precon-
ceived ideas of Florida.
Mr.. C. c. Barnett, manager of the
local motor club, now has desk at
the Chamber of Commerce and as the
season progresses he has an increas-
ing number of calls for road informa-
tion. Mr.. Barnett hopes to make the
club one of the strongest in the state
and is seeking members not only in
Marion county but in adjoining coun-
ties. The A. A A. emblem on auto
mobiles is being seen more and more
ir Florida and the number of cars car.
rying the emblem Of this nationwide
automobile organization will greatly
increase as the tourist season opens
up.

MAKING A MASSIVE
PIECE OF MACHINERY

Hearing that an unusually large
casting had been made yesterday at
the Ocala Iron Works. Star reporter
visited that business institution this
morning. He was met by that clever
young gentleman, Mr. NJ. A. Garrard,
who took him over to the casting de-
partment and introduced him to Mr..
E. D. Cameron, who manipulates huge
ingots of metal like they were play
things. The casting was indeed a
large one. It was a semi-steel thirty
six crusher, for the Crystal River
Rock Company and weighs nearly five
thousand pounds. 1t was snugly
wrapped up in its big bed, about the
size of locomotive tender, sleeping
off the fever caused by its strenuous
existence in the crucible.
This is the largest casting yet made
at the Ocala Iron Works, and would
make any metal working establish
ment in the state sit up and take no.
tice.
The Ocala Iron Works is busy
place, keeping about forty men stead
lily at work and bringing considerable
money into the city. It does work for
the country all round about, and dur
ing the strike repaired couple of the
Seaboard's big locomotives. A large
locomotive belonging to the Martel
Lumber Company is in the shop, with
much other heavy work.

SUMTER'S PROPOSED
GOOD ROADS SYSTEM
Calculating on Plan to Reach Every
Community in the County
(Sumter County Times)

Sumter County will vote at the gen.
eral election in November on the is
suing of road bonds for $6O5, 900. The
election was ordered by the board of
county commissioners at a recess
meeting held Tuesday as a result of
the great mass meeting, called by the
Sumter County Chamber of Commerce
at the court house here last Friday.
calling on the commissioners to order
such an election. This may be termed
the issue which shall complete the
comprehensive road building scheme
of Sumter county. which began two
years ago with an issue of $3.50, 900,
followed by an election a month ago
for $135,000. totaling $885,O00 al
ready voted. The late election further
stirred the sentiment for hard roads
which resulted Friday in the most
representative and largest gathering
of citizens ever in the court house with
one aim and determination--more
good roads.
Mr.. F. L. Rutland of Sumterville,
president of the Sumter County
Chamber of Commerce, presided, and
Mr.. Woods, secretary of the same
body, acted as scribe. Judge McCol-
lum asked for distinct expression
upon the question, "Do you want 10
build more roads NOW?" Excepting
five persons. the whole assembly stood
up promptly, showing unanimity and
determination. After many speeches,
all void of disharmony, the following
committee On roads, ETC., was neni-
mated by the respective communities:
Oxford, II. o. Collier; Wildwood. G.
D. Bridges; Coleman, B. H. Bridges;
Sumterville and Panasoffkee, G. NJ.
King; Bay Hill, ]. H. Shelton; Center
Hill, Ernest McCutcheon; Webster,
Commissioner R. S. Hays; Linden, C.
L. Eaddy; st. Catherine, j. j. Rus
sell. They retired, elected Mr.. Col
lier of Oxford chairman, debated the
issues nearly two hours, and returned,
and Secretary McCollum reported as
follows to the waiting assembly, only
two votes being recorded against the
report, which was as follows:
"Weeds Landing on the Withla-
coochee river, west to Bushnell, and
from Center Hill southeast to Sloan
Ridge, Lake county line, total 16h
miles, 1880
"To aid Linden on ten miles already
bonded, $4,000.
"Center Hill southeast to Lake
county line. $4,000, AZ miles.
"Oxford to Rutland bridge, west, on
Withlacoochee river. 16 miles, $112,-
900.
"Wildwood, west to junction with
Oxford and Rutland road, seven miles,
s49, 900.
Coleman, east, six miles, to juno
ton of Wildwood and Leesburg road,
s42, 700.
"Sumterville northwest. to outlet
from Lake Panasofkee, eight miles,
s5e, 900.
"Webster east six miles to Mabel,
$4,000.
"St. Catherine. to aid already bond
ed road and build to Bushnell, 7h
miles, s51, 900.
"Total new roads, 81k miles, which
added to the 40 miles completed north
ard south, and II miles recently bond
ed, will give Sumter county about 1872
miles of hard road, reaching every
town and village"

FELLOWSHIP

ellOWSnlp, SepC. ZS.-1ne farmers
are all busy in our burg. Some are
gathering corn, some cutting hay,
some planting fall vegetables for
market, some planting the home gar
dens and some are sitting around
whiting on a stick talking politics
and hard times So all are busy.
Well, Editor Benjamin, I'm sorry
you didn't come over the Ocala and
Blitcthon road when you made your
trip to Gainesville, so you could SYM
pathize a little with US poor mortals
about road. This part of the county
has often been boosted for its fertile
lands and hospitable people. If any
one doubts this statement let them
get out among the people of Fellow
ship and Blitchton and see what a
wonderful crop the farmers have made
of corn, peanuts, sweet potatoes,
sugar cane, ETC., also hogs and fat cat
tie, and l don't believe a farmer in
either of the two districts owes dol
lar to any one, and yet we are isolated
when it comes to good road. One
of my neighbors told me a short while
ago that their family paid $500 taxes
annually and they live about Is miles
from Ocala and have only 210 yards
of good road between their place and
Ocala and that is all they get out of
this amount Of taxes. as their children
are out of school. I understand the
Florida Land Co. and Paisley Land Co.
are opening up two sections of land
a little north of here preparatory to
bringing in new settlers and will sell
forty acres to each settler to induce
the settlers to come in. They pro-
pose to build a substantial hard road
from road No. near Williston out to
this land, so Mr.. Editor, you can
read between the lines what this
lmeans-more trade for Williston and
Gainesville that Ocala would get if
we had a decent road. If this county
division ever comes up watch how the
vote will go next time. Our people
have had the patience Of Job, but
their patience will be exhausted some
thine.

General Sir Charles Harrington, COM
mander in chief of the British forces
in the Dardanelles area, plans to
leave this afternoon for a conference
with Mustapha Kemal Pasha, probab-

The British are confident that if the

the firing Of shots at Chanak, or other
points along the Dardanelles, all i'm

ben avoided. This is the period of
time estimated to be required for Cen
