GUSTAvUS SCHEWE
ENTIRELY GONE
Ferryman at Cedar Landing Missing
For Two Weeks and Boat Found
Fifty Miles Down Stream
From His Home

The sheriff's office has received a
report of the mysterious disappear
ance of Gustavus Schewe from his
home at Cedar Landing east of Orange
Springs about ten days ago. Investi-
cation has not produced any informa-
ton as to his whereabouts nor the
manner in which he disappeared.
Neighbors have not seen him for near
ly two weeks.
Schewe is about twenty-three years
old and has resided in the Cedar
Landing section about two years. So
far as known he has no enemies who
might seek his destruction.
Cedar Landing on the Oklawaha
river east of Orange Springs has long
since been abandoned as public fer
ry, but Schewe has been operating a
private ferry at that point for over a
year. His fiatboat was found on the
St. Johns river near Palatka some
days ago, which leads to the belief
that he may have attempted to cross
the river and fell overheard. How
ever, not the least clue has been found
up to this time to indicate when or
IN what manner Shewe disappeared.

CREAMERY KEEPS THE
COIN IN CIRCULATION
Record of a Day and a Week in Our
New and FlOurishing Industry

Editor Star: l was at the creamery
office at closing time Friday, Feb. "a,
and found that forty-four patrons had
sold milk there that day. For this
they will receive $144. The force at
the creamery for same date receive
S23.7O. This makes a daily pay roll
of S167.70, or a weekly pay roll of
S1173.70. How many other enter
prises in Marion county go ahead of
this? This days operations show a
substantial profit. The enterprise is
just a little over a month old. The
first day they received 161 gallons of
milk; yesterday 45O gallons. By June
it will likely reach 1000 gallons day.
The demand is strong for all products

BASEBALL
q. T. ~

The first 1922 membership of fifty
cents is paid. Dan Whitfield came to
my Office this morning and said that
he would not be able to come out to
the meeting Thursday night but that
he wanted to belong to the association.
Who will be next? Don't forget that
Thursday night meeting. Every base
ball fan in Ocala will be there. Some
fanettes have asked if they can come
to the meeting. Some OF the most en-
thusiastic fans we had last year were
members Of the fair sex and we see
no reason why they would not be
more than welcome at the Thursday
night meeting at the Board of Trade
rooms. Fight o'clock is the hour.
Business is going to pick up and go
wit ha vim from the time the town
clock strikes the first stroke of eight.
Don't be late or you will miss the first
part of the meeting.

OCAlA IS MAKING ITS PLANS
FOR NUMEROUS IMPROVEMENTS
Constant Growth of the City Proven by Steady
Increase i'm Demand for Electric Current

The future of Ocala never appeared
brighter than it does at present. The
growth of the city is shown very con-
clusively by the demand for the en-
largement of public utilities. Recent
developments have shown that the
consumption of the electric current
during 1921 increased over fifty per
cent and the municipal plant must be
enlarged to meet the demands upon it.
The Ocala Telephone Company has
found it necessary to install an en-
tirely new switchboard in order to
meet the demand for new phones. The
new switchboard will be of the most
modern type. 1t will be automatic and
designed to meet the growth of the
city.
Ocala is faced with housing short
age and shortage of store rooms. A
new high school building will have to
be erected at once to accommodate the
increased number Of students. Addi
tional property for the city schools
has just been purchased An extension
and enlargement of the water system
has become necessary.
There has undoubtedly been an in
crease in the population of Ocala since
the census was taken in 1920. The
value of new buildings erected during
the past twelve months and now under
construction is estimated to exceed
100000. This does not include the
several handsome buildings that will
replace those destroyed by the recent
fire in the business center of the city.
The new city manager is at work on
plans for extensive street paving, the
enlargement of the light and water
plant and system and other municipal
improvements.
The records of the Marion County
Board of Trade, which after March
will be known as the Marion County
Chamber of Commerce, show that
during the past year an increased
number of people in other states have
made inquiry concerning Ocala and
Marion county.
The growth of the residential sec
tion of the city eastward will soon
make necessary an extension of public
utilities and improvements in that di-
rection.
The business district is spreading
out from the center in every direction.
Taller buildings are beginning to
appear.

SPRING is HERE

One of Ocala's fashion leaders is
dolled up in his Easter best today. His
straw hat and summer suit are caus-
ing quite a lot of comment from his
more conservative friends. A cold
wave has been predicted for Florida
during the next few days and if that
cold wave does not yet lost in transit
the laugh will be on the straw hat
Certainly the present temperature is
suggestive of summer clothes and
bathing suits. The E. G. Jordan Com
pany has felt the impulse of spring
and has whole window full of f1ashy
bath suits that are catching the eye Of
those who are anticipating an early
swim.

AL. G.. FIELD MINSTRELS
PLEASE GRAND PATRONS

Eddie Conrad made his first appear
ance in Wilkes-Barre since assuming
the ownership of the AL G. Field Min
strels, following the death of the
founder of that wonderful band of en-
tertainers, and presented most de-
lightful program to a capacity house
at the Grand last night. The show
proved as complete and as good in ev-
cry way as it was under the former
management.
That the audience was we'll pleased
with the entertainment was indicated
by the prolonged rounds of applause
which followed the rendition of each
number. William Church and Jack
Richards, each possessing a wonder
fully sweet voice which seems to grow
sweeter with time took the house by
storm with their songs in the first
number of the evening. Otis Elwood
followed with a yodeling song which
was equally we'll received.
Bert Swor, with a lot of new jokes
which he put over in an exceptionally
graceful manner, was the center of
attraction in the circle. Nick Hufford
and Rody Cordan are close rivals
however, as funmakers.
The dancing of a quartet as well
as that of William and Lee Dorar
was of such a nature as to demand a
response to several encores. Doni
Mack scored heavily with his imper.
sonation of graceful, prepossessing
feminine dancer.
Bert Swor and Johnny Healey were
the principals in a laughing court
scene featuring the second part. Bert
Swor's monelogue on timely topics Of
the day was received with one con
tinuous laugh. A quartet of saxa
phones furnished music quite out o1
the ordinary but the grand climax
came with the singing of Wyoming
by Church and Richards. This mum
ber was so well received that the pai
was compelled to repeat several times
