Another Voyage to Furthest
South

ciated Press)-More than three weeks
elapsed between the death of Sir
Ernest Shackleton, the British ex-
plorer, and the announcement to the
world made yesterday when the body

due to series of wireless mishaps.
Shackleton died on board the steam
ship Quest on which he was making
another Antarctic voyage, while an
chored off South Georgia Island, jan
uary 5th. He was in good health the
day before. At $3.50 p. m. he felt

preparing remedies when the explorer
died without uttering another word.
He had heart trouble.

NEED COUNTY ENUMERATORS
ASSOCIATED Press)

Tallahassee, Jan. 28.-Commission-
er of Agriculture w. A. McRae has
issued a request that the commission
ers of counties in this state who have
not yet appointed an enumerator for
industrial statistics compiled by the
agricultural department biennially, do
so at once in order that their coun-
ties may be represented in the figures.
Mr.. McRae explains that every two
years the department makes an emu
meration of agricultural, horticultur-
al, livestock and manufacturing indus
tries in Florida, and that the county
commissioners should appoint an emu
merator for the work in their respec-
tive counties. The statistics are to be
compiled at the end of this year.
Fifty-one counties have not yet
named anyone to do the work, Mr.. Nc
Rae said.
"Some counties have trouble in Sc
curing competent men who will do the
work for the enumeration for the
salary which it carries" Mr.. McRae
said Each county should make ar
rangements that will induce compe-
tent enumerator to take up the work
"These statistics are called for by
prospective immigrants and investors
more often than any other printed
matter gotten out by the state. Youl
county is not treated fairly when il
is left out of report. 1t is to b
hoped that the public spirited mer
will take up this matter in each coun
ty and secure an enumerator for thi.
year."

Mrs. w. T. Gary has been notified
of her appointment to the responsible
position of state treasurer for the
State Federation of Woman's Clubs.
Mrs. Gary's appointment comes from
the executive board to fill the vacancy
caused by the resignation Of Mrs.
Stanley of Daytona, who has been
in i'll health for some time. This is to
be considered quite an honor for an
Ocala woman. Mrs. Gary has already
refused several chairmanships as the
work would necessitate her leaving
her home to give it the proper atten-
tion. The Office of treasurer does not
necessitate Mrs. Gary leaving the city
at frequent intervals.

The 1922 baseball team is sending
out its S. o. S., even before it is Or
ganized, but this distress signal is not
for money. How about few jobs for
ball players? Ocala has built herself
a reputation for having live base
ball organization and there are three
applications at hand already from
boys who want to play on our team
this year, provided they can get work
enough to do in Ocala to keep soul and
body together during the summer.
Mr.. Branch has letter from an old
friend of his who is good pitcher.
This man, P. c. Bean, wants job in
Ocala, so that he can pitch for US.
Charlie White, of Plant City, and the
South Florida League, wants to play
here this summer and all he wants is
job. Then there is a red-headed
out-felder I've forgotten his name)
that played for Palatka last summer,
who wants to come here and all he
wants is work.
How about jobs Do you know of
any? Let DIR. Harry Walters or the
writer know if you do and we will try
to get these ball players here. It
would be nice to have enough local
ball players to be Independent of all
outside help.
Our old friend, Glover Denham,
says he will be able to play some this
summer and you all know that lad
can connect with the pill when he
sings the hickory. How about it,
boys Do you want team this year? :?

OCALA DEFEATED CONCORDIA

Saturday evening, the Ocala girls
beat the Concordia girls, % to 8, in
a hotly contested game of basketball,
in spite of the almost freezing tenn
perature. Goncordia's guards were
both good players and so also were its
centsrs. Ocala's forwards both play
ed a good game and divided the hon
ors about even. The game was slower
than usual because of the numerous
tie balls called and the stope caused
thereby. Many times the ball would
be broken from the tie just as the
whistle blew but it had to come back
and be thrown up. This took up time
and kept the score lower than it
would otherwise have been. The at
tendance was small but probably as
large as could be expected on such a
cold night.

Mining Congress 18th
Anniversary Oct. GA

Cleveland, O., April l3-The Amer
lean Mining Congress. representing
mining interests of the country, will
annual convention here October 3 to
IA. 1t will also celebrate a growth of
mineral production in the United
States indicated by a value of S6.701.-
100000 in 1920, compared with a value
of S646,992,5S2 in 1897 according to
figures of the Congress. Canada, Mex
leo and several South American coun-
tries have been invited to participate
in an elaborate exposition of mines
and mining equipment to be held in
the Public Hall, which was recently
completed here at an approximate
cost of 100000.
Delegations from all the important
mining states are expected to attend.
Thirty-nine states and territories
Chicago last October.
Officials of the Congress expressed
a hope that 1922, Hike 1897, will bring
a revival of the mining industry. In
support of that hope they asserted
that demand for production of all
kinds is increasing and that a number
of the large western copper mines
have resumed operation.
In detailing the development of the
mining industry since the formation
of the Congress. officials of the organ
ization cited an increase in the out
put of coal mined in America from
17S,776,070 tons in 1897 to 69.55S,000
tons in 1920. Copper figures given
were 220,571 tons for 1897 and 539.759
for 1920.
"Cne of the most noticeable changes
during the last % years." says a state
ment issued by the Congress, has
been the expansion of American in
terests overseas. The international
aspect of the convention and exposi-
ton will be in keeping with this
change, and will indicate the oppor-
tunities which are presented not only
for the investment of American CAPT.
tai in mining properties in all parts
of the world but Of steady increase in
the utilization of American mine
equipment and machinery in foreign
markets"
