MEETING OF THE
AMERICAN LEGION

Last night the local post of the
American Legion held it's regular
monthly meeting at the armory. A
large number of the boys were on
hand, several of whom had not ben
to a meeting for some time past. The
post voted to meet bi-monthly instead
of monthly and the meeting nights
were set for the first and third We'd
nesday nights in each month.
The question of whether Marion
County Post No. 27 should hold an
Armistice Day celebration or not was
fully argued and discussed by nearly
every man present. Some felt that
it was not up to the legion to promote
a celebration and others felt that it
was up to somebody and no one else
had taken the job so they thought
the legion should make the start.
After thrashing the matter out on
the floor it was decided to have cele-
bration for the ex-service men and
a committee was appointed to make
plans.
The ladies of the auxiliary served
home made chocolate ice cream, cake
and maccaroons to the post during an
intermission from business.

SCHOOL AMENDMENT
NECESSARY TO STATE

Tampa, Nov. 1.-"I am intensely
interested in the ratification of this
amendment" is the way DIR. A. A.
Murphree, president of the Univers-
ity of Florida, speaks regarding the
school amendment to the state consti-
tuition to be voted on at the general
election Tuesday.
That education in America is not
what it might be, as evidenced by the
illiteracy revealed in the army drafts
during the World War is one oftthe
reasons stressed by President Muir
phree in support of the amendment.
81 have heard business men and
others say" said he, "that reading,
writing, spelling and ciphering are
the only proper objects of education.
In my belief there is long list of
other things that ought to enter into
the education of American children.
The questions of health, citizenship,
vocational education, worthy home
membership, music, drawing, art, ct
cetera, should all be included.
"In the last five years, I am re-
liably informed by the school inspec-
tors of this state, that many of these
most desirable matters in education
are being dropped from the curricu-
lum because of lack of funds. We
are drifting back, it seems, to the
time of 1890 in our educational cur
ricula. To prevent this retrogres-
sion, the ten-mill amendment was
passed by the last legislature and is
now submitted to the voters of the
state.
"When we consider that about one
fourth of the men who were drafted
into the army could not read and
write, we can see the extent to which
popular education has failed in this
country. We are not even teaching
the three RS to all the children.
"No other major eation engaged in
the World War was so low in it's edu.
cational attainments. I am not yet
willing to admit that those nations
love education and the higher things
of life more than our people do.
81 believe that we are now aroused
to our obligations and duties to this
most important matter. I firmly be-
lieve that it will be to the everlasting
benefit of the state of Florida thai
this Amendment pass"
