SPECIAL MEETING OF
THE CITY COUNCIL

The city council met in special ses-
sion Saturday afternoon at o'clock to
elect city manager to take the place
of Mr.. c. j. Ryan, who declined the
position, and to decide about the ex-
tension of water mains and sewers.
Messrs Martin, Pedrick, Henry,
Simmons and Goldmen were present.
Clerk Sistrunk first read the regrets
of Mr.. Ryan on his inability to accept
the position of manager of Ocala and
then read applications for the posi-
tion of manager from Mr.. ]. r. Mar
tin of Ocala, who agreed to serve for
the unexpired term for the sum of
81, and from Mr.. R. J. Brumby Jr.,
of Marietta, Ga, who agreed to serve
for the unexpired term at the rate of
$4,000 year and the use of Ford car.
The application of Mr.. S. H. Christian
was already on file for consideration.
There was much discussion among
the members of the council. Mr.. E. II.
Martin nominated Mr.. ]. R. Martin
for the position of manager. Mr.. Gold
man suggested that the election of a
manager be postponed to later date
in order that a wider field of appli-
cants be found to select from. Mr..
Simmons pointed out the fact that the
situation at the light plant in respect
to the boilers is grave and needs i'm
mediate attention and that any delay
in the selection of a manager and
hence the man to look after this ques-
tion might prove disastrous to the
city.
Mr.. Simmons seemed to think that
Mr.. Brumby would not have sufficient
experience in machinery to take
charge of the light plant. After con-
| siderable discussion pro and con, g
vote was taken. Mr.. Brumby was de-
| clared elected to the position of man
ager of Ocala for the unexpired tern
and is to receive a salary of $4,000
a year and Ford car for his use.
| Mr.. Simmons was instructed to have
Mr. Mckenzie proceed at once with
the work of laying new water main:
between Oklawaha and Fort King ave
nue. at the Ray property and along
the Dixie highway from the Meffert
corner out. Sewers are also to bt
laid at the same time os that these
streets will be ready for the paving

ALBERT is AGGRIEyED

Editor Star: AS one of the music
lovers of 0cala, / wish to enter my
protest against the criticism of the
Frieda Hempel concert on the 9th
inst, contained IN the issue of the
Star of Jan. 18th.
1t is a rare thing for 0cala to be
fortunate enough to hear singers of
world renowned celebrity like Frieda
Hempel, and your write-up is calculat-
ed to hurt our good little city, from a
musical standpoint. Knowing the edi-
tor as well as l do, am charitable
enough to make due allowance for his
lack of knowledge of the subject that
he criticized.
think Hempel's rendition of
Home, Sweet Home" Dixie" and
the "Blue Danube" was everything to
be desired. When you take into consid-
Grafton the two latter were originally
written as instrumental and not vocal
selections, only the ''true artist" could
have rendered them as Hempel did.
1t would have been far better to
have ignored the entire concert, than
to have written what you did.
Yours very truly,
Albert E. Gerig.

TRUANT OFFICER is A
MERE FIGUREHEAD

With the almost universal adoption
of the school-bus begins long period
of restfulness for the country truant
officer whose duty is to check up on
school attendance. Rainy days, long
distances, and muddy roads no longer
make the district school look like a
deserted village.
Used now by more than 10000 con-
solidated schools, the school-bus sys-
tenn is simple and practical one.
More and more, the truant officer of
these consolidated schools is coming
to lead the life of ease.
General use of Dodge Brothers cars
and Graham Brothers trucks with
Dodge Brothers power plant shows
how we'll they are fitted for this serv-
ice, says Mack Taylor, local Dodge
Brothers dealer. The proportion of
Dodge Brothers cars among the 10000
schools is high, and the reason may be
found by taking particular instances
where they are used.
By reason of their reliability and
economical operation, Dodge Brothers
cars and Graham Brothers school bus
are admirably suited to the use OF
country schools

country in the world.
During the trip to the springs, it
was learned that Miss Hempel is an
enthusiastic golfer and although she,
herself, modestly said that she was
only a beginner, her husband later in
formed the party that Miss Hempel
had made the best record for ladies
at Lake Placid, N. Y. Miss Hempel
was driven to the 0cala Country Club,
which she admired very much, and ex-
pressed her regret that time did not
permit her to play there.
Miss Hempel and her entire party
expressed themselves as delighted
with Ocala and 0cala people and
promised to come again If the fates
would permit.
The party left for Orlando on the
southbound limited. They were escort
ed to the station by the ladies who
had been playing the part of hostesses
for Ocala and these ladies had de-
lightful surprise when Miss Hempel
gave them each an autographed pho
tograph of herself.
