She also accepted an invita invitation tion invitation to address the Woman's Club of Tallahassee on 'the same subject. In March a circular letter "was is issued sued issued to the presidents of all clubs in the federation. Twenty-four of the one hundred and fifty clubs responded to this letter. k V A second circular letter was issued in October enclosing a questionnaire to which forty clubs replied. "!

Their work corresponds to that of the home dem demonstration onstration demonstration agents but is carried on in cities instead of the country. Many clubs have anticipated this movement of the government and have some months ago appointed chairmen in their clubs to look after the city work of food conservation. ; Another movement which is being stated is to establish in each town a "food facts' library where shall be on file and for public reference all bulletins issued by the United States department of agriculture and other publications bearing on the subject of food.

CONDITIONS AT THE CAMP News that there have been several has caused much uneasiness here, so we are glad to print the following re reassuring assuring reassuring letter from Captain Drake: Editor Star: All going well; no new cases. The case of Smedley ap appears pears appears to be the only one. Tests are being made of every man in the company, so everything will be safe. Should any healthy carriers of contagion develop, they can be takei. care of and the danger be prevented. Should any cases develop I will ad advise vise advise you.

Drake. ,'SO MUCH SMOKE," ETC. : Mr. YLt M.. Hampton is one of Oeala's foremost lawyers. Few men are his equal in putting an argument plainly and convincingly before a jury, and he has the talent rare in a good speaker of v writing as logically as he can talk. In his present argu ment vith the Star, however, he seem? seeking to cloud rather than clear the issue. I The Star,the tother day, advised the voters of the city to put a question, or rather two questions, to the cancu dates for aldermanic offices. The ques tions were simple and direct. 7 It wouldn't have put any Candidate,' but to answer either or both that is if he was, as he should be, looking out for thd interest, of the people. But Mr. Hampton, who is not a can didate, rushes in and insists that tne candidates be not questioned. He doesn't give any reason ; why they" shouldn't be, but seems to be( very anxious to protect them in a matter in wiiicii cava auu cvctjr vire ui mum is probably able to take care of him self. But since he has .butted in, Mi. Hampton should give good reason why-the Star's question shouldn't b put. Instead of that Mr. Hampton drags in much that is irrelevant,' and devotes a lanre proportion, of ihis space to lecturing the Star on its in accuracy. i .' Mr. Hampton needn't worry about the Star's inaccuracy. Its readers, who are about all the people in, town who can read, seem to find it accm ate enough; so far-as that is concern ed Mr. Hampton also finds it accurate on those numerous occasions when it agrees with him. Mr. Hampton says he is "absolutely sure, not one out of a hundred people in the city 'ever heard of the city at torney's letter you refer to, and I do - not believe a single candidate, out: side of those now in office and who seek, to be re-elected, 'ever ..heard of it." .Well, that isn't the Star's fault. It told of the city attorney's opinion in v its report of the meeting of the coun cil at which it was expressed some months ago, and the opinion has been on file in the clerk's office ever since. It is inexcusable in Mr. Hampton as a leading lawyer, also as a prominent citizen, that he is not posted on it, . and his confession on this point shows that he knows as little about city af ..fairs as he accuses the Star of know in g. For that matter, we don't think the people are as forgetful as Mr. Hampton thinks they are. If the '-are. why does he object to the Star in forming them, and why does he sQLdil igently assist in disseminating the in formation. . ... . LIr. Hampton seems to .think that the new charter in some mysterious xfjiy alters the status of the gas com panys franchise; also that the city attorney is not posted on the said charter. For that matter, the fran franchise chise franchise is a contract, and we remind Mr. Hampton of the well-known principle in law that a contract is binding. It would be strange if the city attorney was not familiar with the new char charter, ter, charter, as he helped the council to draw ifr- up, and he informed us so late as day before yesterday that his opinion on the gas company's franchise stood. Anybody can see the probability-f-a conflict of opinion between the inter interests ests interests of the city and the interests of the gas company, in which the gas company would be greatly aided by a council favorable to it, and by a city attorney, elected by such a council. We cannot see our way clear to adopt Mr. Hampton's suggestion, that we confess we jumped on something we didn't know the first thing about. The tenor of Mr. Hampton's remarks show -: that while he undoubtedly delves deep into such questions as he gives his attention to, he is not spe specially cially specially well posted on city affairs in general. i .Hi..,,.,,..,.-1- THE CITY ELECTION The annual city election takes place next Tuesday, and the people of Ocala are rather more than usually! interested m the outcome. The candidates are as follows: For Mayor : J. E. Chace, John D. Robertson. For Councilman at Large: John H. Taylor, A. T. Thomas. . For councilman from First Ward: A; A. Winer.- For Councilman from Second Ward: J. J. Gerig, E A. Osborne. For Councilman from Third Ward: D. E.. Mclver, Charles W. Hunter. For, Councilman from Fourth Ward: G. A. Nash, F. G. B. Weihe, J. W. Johnson. We do not think there is any ques question tion question about who is the most suitable man for mayor. We do not see why any man who cares for Ocala should want the rule of petty, tyranny that marked Mr. Robertson's administra tion resumed. While he was mayor, he seemed to think that he was the little lord goddlemitey of Ocala, and to op pose him in any way was sacrilege. He tried to make it unpleasant not orily for officials but for private citi zens who opposed him. That he was always honest, that he sometimes showed considerable public spirit, we are only too glad to admit, but he does not possess any more, if as much of those qualities than his op opponent, ponent, opponent, while in his toleration of the opinions of others he is so far Dr. Chace's inferior that there is no com comparison. parison. comparison. Dr. Chace has come very near mak ing an ideal mayor. He. has worked steadily with the council, v and with our leading citizens for the im provement (. of the city. "r When he found himself in the minority (which was seldom), he has yielded grace fully. He has never persecuted, abus ed or threatened any man who dis agreed with him. Under his adminis administration tration administration the city has had for the first time, in years 'a mayor who adequate- y and dignifiedly represented it at all public occasions. More than all,? there is no question of 7. his loyalty. He faithfully and without wavering has supported the government in all its policies and has liberally contributed j to every one of the great undertak ings to lessen the horrors of war for bur soldiers. In the 'days of war that are ahead, it will be best for Ocala, n6t only in its interior affairs, but be before fore before the state and nation that it has a man for mayor of whose loyajty there Clfi ibe no doubt7 :77;- 77:--7; W- In the matter of aldermen, the Star iPhotr distressed over who is elected orSdef eated. We are pretty well ac acquainted quainted acquainted with all the candidates, and it is our opinion that they stack up a good" average. We would prefer that the 'present incumbents be elected, be because cause because they have been for two or three years each connected with the present work of improvement, and we believe it will be to the interest of the city 'for them to be allowed to finish the job. There is, xt course,? some dissatisfaction with them, but there was a great deal "of dissatis dissatisfaction faction dissatisfaction with .their precedecessors, and if their opponents; ere elected, there will he dissatisfaction 'with them. The Star prefers Mr. John Taylor for alderman at large, because it be believes lieves believes he is particularly well adapted forlthe work the city is now engaged in. The cijty owes much of the success of its electric plant to his business sagacity when he served as alderman beforehand it is hardly necessary to remind our citizens that all attempts to alter the policy he followed result resulted ed resulted in muddles that made great fric friction tion friction and cost the city much money. His opponent, Mr. A. T. Thomas, is, howeverra very capable and public spirited man. If he is elected, we have no doubt, that he will do his best for thd city, and that it will be a very good best too. For second ward alderman, we pre prefer fer prefer J. J. Gerig. Mr. Gerig has been a citien of Ocala for v almost thirty years ; he has been one o our best resident of ; Ocala for almost ) thirty council; hone of the complaints made, against him will stand the test of publicity, and the people of Ocala will never be able to find any better man to represent them on their council. Mr. Gerig's opponent,Mr. Osborne, has not been in our city many years, but we were glad to have him when he came; he, too, is of the highest type of citizenry, and there will be'no heartburnings if he is elected. s Messrs. Don Mclver and C. W. Hunter are the third ward's candi candidates. dates. candidates. Mr. Mclver is an old citizen, he knows Ocala like a book and has serv served ed served faithfully and long on the counciL Of the two we think he is. the bettei man. We have a strong liking for Charlie Hunter, but we can't help re remembering membering remembering that if his ambitious plans for the city during his previous ser service vice service on the council had been carried out, the town would now be carrying another $150,000 of indebtedness in addition to the load it is stagger staggering ing staggering under. He represented the second ward two years, and then the second ward shoved the steam roller over him. However, Charlie has lots of good ideas, and if he is elected, and his associates curb his ambition, ha will probably do some good and not very much harm. In the fourth ward, it will be dif difficult ficult difficult to choose between G. A. Nash and F. G. B. Weihe, both veteran coun coun-cilmen cilmen coun-cilmen and good citizens. As we like them both, we "are not going to tell which one we will vote for. We can get along mighty well with either. SEVERAL MORE OCALA BOYS IN SERVICE Another instalment of Oeala's young men has volunteered and is on its way to the front. George Davis, Wayae Ten Eyck and Lee Sharp left for Jacksonville Friday evening, thV first to try, for the army and the second for the quar quartermaster's termaster's quartermaster's department. George Davis was a member '.. of Company A and went with the com company pany company to Black Point last year. The physicians, on account of his eyes, sent him home, bui he is in hope his eyes will pass this time. 7 Charles Simpson, twice refused be because cause because of lack of weight, leaves today to try again, intending if accepted to enlist in the engineers.

There are very few young men of the military age left in Ocala, and those few : are either exempt or are busy closing up their affairs before they are" called by the draft. ANOTHER LETTER FROM MR. HAMPTON Editor Star: In your issue of Dec. 7th, you propound two questions, which you asked me to answer. I take pleasure in answering them. First you ask: "Isn't the franchise the gas company now operates under, in consequence of the higher price of everything, more favorable than it might have reason to hope for if it had to be renewed year after next?' j Moot court' cases and hypothetical cases are ; often discussed in law schools and debating societies, but rarely ever in business life, and I am sorry that I haven't the time to enter into a debate involving only a hypo hypothetical thetical hypothetical s case, but my time is mostly taken up in matters of importance, but I woulduggest that you send the question with a copy of the franchise td the law, department of the Univer University sity University of Florida at Gainesville, with a request that they made a special order for it, for as I understand they are hard up for subjects up there any way, understand there Is no debat debating ing debating society here that could take it up. I am sure the discussion will be inter interesting, esting, interesting, and both of us would profit by it, so we will go up to Gainesville when they pull it off. Second-, you ask: "And if it had some ground to work on to carry its franchise on to 1929,. wouldn't it be considerable help to it to have in pow power er power a council disposed to be just to it?" This question is a little bit, confus confused ed confused it Seems to me, and it may be that I do not entirely understand it, but il I understand it clearly, you ask, would the gas company not fare bet better ter better to have a council that will deal justly' with it, than one that would deal unjustly. It seems to me tha this needs no reply. Certainly justice is better than injustice, even 1 though administered by a city council. 77;; (It is evident that Mr. Hampton is more than a little bit confused, for he has not quoted our question correctly, having left out an important part, and so his argument is based on a false conclusion. Editor). Do I understand from your question that it is the purpose of the candi candidates dates candidates to deal unjustly with the gas. company if elected? If so, as a1 public spirited citizen, you ought to name them, because they certainly are un unfit fit unfit for office if they would violate their oaths, and this they must do if they would deal unjustly with the gas com company. pany. company. Therefore, it seems to me that if, you are advised of anything along this line you ought to make it known to the people, because I do not believe any good citizen would vote for a man who desires to go into office with the avowed purpose of injuring some one. Yours very truly, H. M. Hampton. . If Mr. Hampton will make arrange arrangements ments arrangements to have the debate pulled off, and will take us to Gainesville at the time in his handsome car, we will take pleasure in t adopting his suggestion. He knows we haven't the carfare to Gainesville ;7 also that we are al always ways always glad to ride with him and for forget get forget politics in discussing poetry, liter literature ature literature and art. ; 7 1 ; . 1 : 7 It would not be proper for us to pick out any particular candidates to propound the proposed question to. Our proposition was that it should be asked of all. and we do not see how it 'could be made more fairly. In ad- I 1 1 1 FLORIDA vance of their action or assertion, we do not know what any of them are go going ing going to do, therefore we advise the vot voters ers voters to exercise their rights to ques question tion question all. ? We suggest to Mr. Hampton that-if he knows of any of the candidates that object to being quizzed about their in intended tended intended policy toward the electric and gas plants, that he furnish 4 the Star with their names and the Star in re turn will advise the people not to ques tion them.

MEYER, J. E. XKAVANAUGH , Proprietor, Jianajrt-t WACAHOOTA The largest private dwelling house in England we know. : It Is Wentworth Wentworth-Woodhouse, Woodhouse, Wentworth-Woodhouse, the seat of Earl Fitzwil Fitzwil-Iiam, Iiam, Fitzwil-Iiam, in Yorkshire. The oldest inhab inhabited ited inhabited house is said to be the so-called "Jew's house," in Lincoln, of the Nor Norman man Norman period, about eight hundred years old. But which and where is the- most curious habitation in these islands? asks a writer in London Answers. u Many tourists who know Conway will no doubt at once declare for the miniature house to be found in that town on. the quay, and actually built beneath the srim. ancient walls of Ed ward I's massive castle. It thus forms j an extraordinary contrast with that i great fortress, for it is "the smallest house in Great Britain," as the notice- : board on its very miniature frontage declares. The people of Conway seem to be rather more proud of .the, fame this lit little tle little slip of a house brings the town than of the greater fame brought by the big bigger ger bigger building, and picture-postcard ven ders do a large trade in cards of it. Between Gravesend and the village of Chalk, and situated in a curious po position, sition, position, with the Thames on one side and the Thames and Medway canal on the other, is an old cottage that is half a Doat. it nas stooa mere certauuy since the time of Charles Dickens, who lived in the neighborhood and may well have had it in mind when he in invented vented invented Peggotty's boathouse on Yar Yarmouth mouth Yarmouth sands ; in "David Copperfield." This, is almost such another, and is formed from one of the boats of the old wooden man-o'-war Wellington, ; sold out of the servce in 1822. The boat, upside down, forms both roof and up upper per upper floor of the cottage. A whimsical freak house of consider able size and great Interest is that known as the "Tripod house," standing In the village of Goodrich, on the River Wye. It was built in 1636 by Rev. Thomas Swift, vicar of Goodrich and grandfather of the famous Dean Swift. His idea was to thus typify the trinity, and to do so he designed and built the house on this curious plan a central hall, with three wings branching from It at equal distances. The unfortunate vicar and builder of this quaint house was a devoted royal royalist, ist, royalist, and as such his odd dwelling was pillaged no fewer than twenty times by the soldiers of the parliament, who also stole all his cattle and farm stock. He did not live to see the restoration of Charles H, dying, as he did, in 1656. Our next example an eccentric dwelling house is to be found In a very different part of the country away in Lincolnshire, near Horncastle. From its fancied resemblance to a teapot it Is locally known as "Teapot Hali." It was built, according to, tradition, by a retired captain of one of the old "tea clippers," as the fast sailing ships In the China trade used to be called. A very fine and particularly striking residence is that known a3 'The Grange," Leominster, V Herefordshire, and it. has an astonishing history, hav having ing having once been the town hall and But Butter ter Butter Cross.; Built In 1633 from designs by the famous Herefordshire architect, John Abel, wo .worked, chiefly In tim timber, ber, timber, it Is a structure entirely of elabor rately marked wood, and formerly Stood in the center of the town.

V Some Idea of the tremendous ad advance vance advance in the price ofvessel property and the fabuloui prices now being paid or vessels that can be bought is hown In theale of the Boston steam steamer er steamer Tidewater, which has changed owo' rshlp .after running in the coal-carrying trade to this port for fess than five months, says the Boston Globe. The fclg collier cost to build about $570,000, atnd was sold for more than $2,600,000, a profit of more than $2,000,000. The Tidewater was built at the New "York Shipbuilding company's yard,' Camden, N. J., and was completed arly ihe present year. The vessel is; constructed of steel.

It is of importance to Inquire Into the attitude taken by the southern Indians of Mexico toward the official Spanish civilization, says the New Re Republic public Republic If It Is difficult for an out outsider sider outsider only slightly acquainted with the southern Indians to understand the reasons for their marked hatred of the Spaniards . it seems self self-evident evident self-evident of anyone who has spent any time with them. To the southern In Indians, dians, Indians, the Spaniard and his successor, the Spanish-speaking Mexican, is the cruel alien conqueror. They feel that they are Indians and that Mexico is an Indian country. For instance, one of the common objections to Madero encountered in Oaxaca was that h$ was not an Indian and that the presi president dent president of Mexico should be an" Indian. This attltrde is significant, and it Is not strange to find even a northern Indlan"ike H ierta proudly exclaim exclaiming: ing: exclaiming: "Yo so Indlano." Carranza's lack of popularity In the south Is not so much due to the fact that southern Mexico is the home of Diaz as to tha act tiat Carranza is not aa Indian.

SUICIDE OF A YOUNG SOLDIER .r (Gainesville Sun) I Oneiof the saddest cases coming to light recently in connection with thb war and enlistment of young Ameri Americans cans Americans to fight against the German war lordp is that of Berry Cason of Cross City, t son of Will Cason and grandsoR of tHarley J. Cason, who was a mem member ber member of Company L, 124th regimenu, stationed at Camp Wheeler, whose death occurred at his own hands at Cross City yesterday morning having blown his brains out with a pistol.' Young Cason was allowed a three three-day day three-day furlough home from the Macon camp ; while convalescent from measles, which he contracted at the camp, and from which, indirectly, so many deafhs have occurred at Camp Wheeler. His .furlough f ending, he started back to the cantonment, but on reaching Newberry, where he had to .change trains, his condition became worse and becoming unconscious, he was "set back home by friends at that place. '-'- :f:'r"V ,-r Medical aid was' summoned as soon as the sick boy reached home, and physicians found him suffering from acute bronchopneumonia, contracted asan aftermath -of measles, Di. Will Will-liams, liams, Will-liams, Uie attending physician, dis discharged charged discharged him as cured after several weeks' s severe illness,' and it is pre presumed sumed presumed young Cason notified some of his comrades at the Macon camp of his : convalescence from this latter se serious rious serious illness, and of his intention qf returning to hi duties. " -But day before yesterday as he and his family were making preparations for his trip in return, he received an anonymeus letter, presumably from one of hiSj fellow-soldiers, stating that he had best not -return to camp, as he was posted as a deserter, and conse consequently quently consequently had been blacklisted by mem members bers members of his company. ; Young Cason, naturally, turned this letter over to his father, and the lat latter ter latter straightway became busy getting affidavits from the attending physician and others to the effect that Berry had been sick aind unable to return, and de detailing tailing detailing the case as it had happened.

III CLUB M HOME Edited by Caroline 'Editor Star: Our fair is over, and I am "winner again" as 1 have been for the past three years of all first premiums .which was offered by the Fair Association, coming under the head of Domestic Science. ? Now, it may interest some canning club girl to know how I have been able to do this. ... Any little girl can do the same as I have done. For I am only a little girl, and I suppose I'm doomed to never be anything, but just a "little girl." For I overheard the other day a cer certain tain certain lady telling my mother "to never under any circumstances allow me to grow up." ... But never mind, I like it Being u little girl. - But I'm getting away from what I started out to say the reason I have been able to accomplish what I have First: I have natural taste and love for the work, in' fact I love all the sciences so far as l have studied them. I am getting a foundation in my own home, anjcklater on in college, I mean to make a special study of Home Eco Eco-nomice nomice Eco-nomice and Domestic Science. I have loved it .ever since I was a tiny tot, not tall enough to reach the top of the stove, I used to beg mother for small pieces of dough, that I might have the joy of cooking biscuits myself. Second: I say second, not because my mother comes second, for "my mother is second to none. But this, if a girl had a dozen mothers to teach her,' if she did not love the work and did not try to apply herself very lit little tle little would she accomplish. I have a mother who likes to teach her erirls how to do thin es and. who never as yet refused material for me to work with, and one who never tires of telling me how things are done. r j t many a time wnen i was oniy a uuie tot I would ask her if I might make cookies, or a cake like some she had made, she would never refuse me, per haps she might be sewing at the time. She would tell me what the recipe called for, and maybe my little feet would patter back? and fourth from kitchen to sewing room a half dozen times before. I would get the recipe stirred up, for fear I would leave something out. 7 When later on I asked that she write down with pencil some recipes for me, (for no cook book contained as fine recipes as those contained in, mother's head.) 'V? -:'v '';. : I would tack these recipes up and sometimes the pantry door would be covered with little slips of paper, but I didn't mind, I was learning to cook. Our Demonstration Agent told you I worked with my mother, and well right she say this, else I would not have known what I do about cooking:, pickling; preserving, jelly making, etc. I have worked with my mother.. I have not merely stood and looked on while my mother did the work. v ; ' I have worked at other times while my mother sat in a chair and gave instructions. s I have also worked when she .was not any where near, and now my mother says, she is being well, well repaid for her, trouble in teaching me. In that she can sit with, and enjoy her company, while I prepare dthner for same, and says she is not the least bit nervous when escorting friends to one of my dinners for she knows ev everything's erything's everything's O. K. r f Now please don't think I am brag bragging, ging, bragging, when I say this, I do not mean it that way. But I do want you girls to know that I can "CAN" and pre preserve serve preserve and jake pickles and cook a dinner (fit for a king, so Papa says) without my mother's help.1 help.1-. . help.1-. I work with my mother, and also work without myjmother. But there is lots ?and lots more for me to learn. There is. a great deal more that my mother can teach me. I have just be begun gun begun to learn.
