COLORED PEOPLE HONOR
THEIR SELECTED MEN
, The Metropolitan theater was
crowded last night with colored peo
pie, bent on doing honor to the young
men of their race who are to leave
Monday and Tuesday for the training
camp at Camp Devens, Mass.
Dr. R. R. Williams acted as master
of ceremonies., On the platform were
a number of the ministers and lead
ing colored citizens of the town. -The
good will and interest of the white
people was expressed by Mayor Chace
Messrs. J. J. Gerig, Don Mclver and
two members of the Star staff. The
music managed by A. St. George
Richardson, and voiced by a carefully
selected choir of young women and
girls, was inspiring and worth going
a long ways to hear.
The evening passed in listening to
speeches and the music It was a very
impressive occasion, made the more
so by the presence of a number of the
young men who were to .leave next
week. 'v. v
Speeches were made by George Giles
Richardson, Mobley and Butterfiela,
Mayor Chace, Messrs. Gerig, Mclver
and Leavengood. The meeting opened
with prayer by Rev. Pickens and was
closed by singing "Columbia, the Gem
of the Ocean" and prayer by Rev.
Manywether.
Noticeable among the audience were
many women and girls whose insig
nia testified that they were earnest
and diligent in Red Cross work.
The colored selects will leave Mon Monday
day Monday and Tuesday, on the A. C. L.
trains, leaving here at 1:15 p. m. Of
course their own people will give them
a great sendoff, and the Star thinks
that any white person who takes an
interest in anyone of the boys should
be present to bid him godspeed. Some
of their blood will probably be spilled
for us stay-at-homes before another

CARD FROM MR. CLEMENT
It has been brought to the notice of
the writer that there has been a. recent
report in circulation that he has been
guilty of unpatriotic expressions
while discussing the war situation,
even to the point of being pro-German
in his utterances.
If I had been accused of being a
murderer the accusation could not
have been more misplaced, as I believe
I am safe in saying that there has
been no human being on the Ameri American
can American cpntinent that has been a more
constant cusser,of Prussian militar militarism
ism militarism since the summer of 1914 than I
have, and there is no other person in
this country possibly that has less
cause to utter one single intentional
speech detrimental to the welfare of
the country than I.
The writer, as some of my friends
will probably remember, advocated
war the day that the Lusitania was
sunk, and the sending of one million
men across just as soon as possible.
I have responded to. the country's
call for money and at present prob
ably hold more Liberty Bonds than
the average person in this town, or
other town of its size.
The writer comes from English English-Scotch,
Scotch, English-Scotch, more remote French, descent,
whose ancestors landed in this coun country
try country from England more than two
hundred years ago, and I may say,
with not a blot on their record to
date, the books being open still in
Charleston, S. C. The family is rep represented
resented represented at present by six near rela
tives in the army of this country, all
officers.
I can assure my acquaintances and
the people at large, that in the many
discussions tht I have taken pleasure
in on tne streets regarding the mom
entous question, if I have said one
word in any of them that could be
construed in any way as disloyal to
this country, God knows the writer's
intentions could not have been further
removed from such an act. i
As it worries the writer to believe
that there can be people in this town,
where he has lived for so many years,
that could believe that he intentional intentionally
ly intentionally said these things. I wnnM hecr fht.
these people broach the subject to him I
on the streets, and I am sure he will I
be able to explain the matter to their i
satisfaction. E. W. Clement.

SUPERINTEDENT BRINSON
DEFENDS THE SCHOOLS
Editor Star: You surely have it in
for the poor school teacher. What has
he done to you? I fear you did not
come m contact with him enough
when you were a boy up in those fine
old north Georgia hills.
You write so much that I heartily
agree with that I enjoy your editorials
and read every word of them and ac according
cording according to my view you are generally
right.
However, when you essay to stray
off into school matters you generally
get badly lost.
On numerous occasions you have
referred in a severe manner to the
courses of study followed by the
schools. It is possible that we hav
some superfluous material in L our
school curriculum but do you really
think you are qualified to present a
better collection of materials for in information
formation information and mental and moral de development?
velopment? development? These are matters of
growth and are gradually modified, by
those who can do so constructively
and not destructively.
So much for that. But a short while
ago the Star referred to the teachers
as a "privileged class" in attempting
to criticise the course of study. Yes,
indeed, they are a privileged class.
Privileged to put years of hard work
into preparation for training you
children and saving them from ig ignorance
norance ignorance and depravity, privileged to
pass most rigid examinations and
conform to most exacting conditions,
privileged to toil diligently with ob obstreperous
streperous obstreperous young America and to
meet in a diplomatic manner the
whims and in many cases the unreas unreasonable
onable unreasonable and unreasoning notions of old
America, and all this in many cases at
less compensation than the common commonest
est commonest kind of labor receives. Yes, sir,
they are "privileged."
The latest 'opportunity that has
presented itself upon which you could
harpoon the teacher is the Sears bill
providing for military training for
high school students. I have not read
the bill and am not in position to ex express
press express my approval or disapproval
upon it as a whole and it may be that
it does not go far enough, but it
should be discussed upon its merits
and not upon the fact that Mr. Sears
was connected with public school work
prior to running for and being elected
to Congress.
Quoting from your issue of yester yesterday

his tribe thinks the entire world is

made up of teachers and the upper
grades of their scholars." Now, really,
do. you not regard this as an entirely
gratutious and erroneous expression?
Think it over.
I am not sure that Mr. Sears ever
taught (I rather think he did) but he
was county superintendent for quite a
number of years of Osceola county
and had sufficient ability and political
sagacity to run for Congress from
that district and to be elected and so
far as I know has filled ; the place
quite acceptably. This, however, is
outside the merits of his bill for mili military
tary military training in the public schools of
the country at large.
Granting that his bill falls far
short of the necessities of the day,
does that warrant a slurring refer reference
ence reference to the great body of men and
women throughout the world who are
ever marching forward, upholding the
torch of intelligence and illuminating
not only the dark corners of the earth
but who are the very beacon lights
for the hopes of humanity?
Because an ignorant, careless or
criminal lawyer makes a bungling
mess of some case or betrays some
trust do you belittle and lambast the
entire great strong-minded and in
many cases big-hearted legal profes profession?
sion? profession? j
Because some ignorant, careless or
criminal doctor makes some miserable
blunder that costs a human life and is
possibly arraigned in the courts and
possibly convicted, do you make uni
versal condemnation of the noble pro
fession that stands by your couch and
strains its entire mental fibre to res
cue you front the gaping jaws of the
great divide?
It is really nauseating to note the
rather patronizing remarks of certain
of the press in referring to Mr. Wil Wilson
son Wilson and many others of our foremost
men in public, political and business
positions who were formerly engaged
in educational work. These men in
many instances had held most impor
tant administrative positions handling
the affairs of plants representing the
investment of millions of dollars and

Now, Mr. Editor, do not understand

probably no profession that is so crit critical
ical critical of its own members as that' of
the educational profession and they
are just common flesh and blood the
same as other people and open to the
searchlight of observation and pub

and of a character helpful to the cren-

Personally I asree with vou in vour

of a military caste in this country but
for the general qualities of physical
fitness, promptness, respect for and

Editor Jones of the Arcadia, News

says he doesn't see why Catts or anti-

Catts should be an issue in the com

ing campaign. We do not see any
reason why it should be, either, but

it is : '

The churches of the United States,

under the extraordinary war condi

tions of 1917 were prosperous, but

the net .increase m church members
was only 573,295, less than in 1916

by 183,329.
It seems to the Star that' the' musi

cians of this tdwn aire not up to the

mark in patriotism. If they were they

would go to Ben Borden and offer to

scheduled for April 6.

Elsewhere our long-time and valued
friend, Mr. J. H. Brinson, comity sirp-

enntendent of education, comes down
on us like a thousand of brick because
of our criticisms of the school system.

We ll attend to his case tomorrow.

The question of raising the rates
for electric current is going to come
trprin the council soon," and is bound to
cause considerable discussion among

our people.
'' For the last three years Ocala has
enjoyed the lowest rate for current in
the state outside Jacksonville, and one

of the lowest in the world. The pro

position to raise the rate is going to
be quite unpopular. It is going to be

very unpopular with the Star. We

user electricity to drive our typeset

ting machine, our presses, paper
cutter and other apparatus, beside
having to pay a big bill for lights,

and when we look forward to an in increase
crease increase of 25 per cent or more on this,
it gives us a pain.

At the same time we fully realize

that it is bad business and injustice
to sell current. even to our own citi citizens
zens citizens at a loss. If the electric plant

doesn't pay expenses, the deficit must

be. made up out of the property own owners
ers owners and those who pay license for
carrying on business, and that isn't a

falf deal at all, especially when we
consider that of the users of current
perhaps a majority do not own tax taxable
able taxable property.

One of the arguments offered for

the present very low rate was that it

was ah excellent advertisement for

Ocala. This argument has its merit

in normal times. It is not of much

effect at present. But Ocala can raise

its rates and yet sell current much

cheaper than the average town.

The following statement will show

Ocala's rates as compared with those

Since few persons' in" the : cities and

everybody to do is to set forward the
hands of the clocks and watches when
they go to bed Saturday night. They
should then forget all about the time

Elsewhere we print a card from
Mr. E. W. Clement, the citizen, who
has been accused lately of making se seditious
ditious seditious remarks. In a personal inter interview
view interview with the Star, Mr. Clement de declares
clares declares that he is as loyal as they

make them, that he has been some somewhat
what somewhat misrepresented and entirely mis

understood. In delving into the mat

ter, the Star finds that Mr. Clement

has been rather careless in his talk,

and said some things that would have
been all right a few years ago but
are mighty precarious now.. On the
other hand, it has found some of his
close friends who vouch for his loyal

ty. So taking the matter up one side
and down another, we recommend that
Mr. Clement 6n the one hand be more
careful, and our people, on the other,
overlook his carelessness. People who

have sons in the army, particularly

those whose sons are on the fighting

line in France, can't be blamed for
being quick to resent anything that
looks like a reflection either on th
boys or the cause they are fighting
for. The incident has been of service
it will, we hope, rid one of our citi

zens of a load of suspicion and hos hostility
tility hostility which he has, perhaps unknow

ingly, been carrying for months; it

may also be a lesson to some of whose

disloyalty there is no doubt.

The Crucifixion
Sunlight upon Judea's hills!
And on the waves of Galilee
On Jordan's stream, and on the rills
That fed the dead and sleeping sea.
Most freshly from the green wood
springs
The light breeze on its scented wings,
And gayly quiver in the sun
The cedar tops of Lebanon!
A few more hours a change hath
come!
-The sky is dark,. without a cloud!
The shouts of wrath and joy are
. dumb
And proud knees unto death are
bowed.
A change is on the hill of death,
Helmeted watchers pant for breath,
And, turn with wild and maniac eyes
From the dark scene of sacrifice!
That Sacrifice! the death of Him
The High and ever Holy One!
Well may the conscious heaven grow
dim,
And blacken the beholding sun.
The wonted light hath fled away,
Night settles on the middle day,
And earthquake from his cavemed
' bed
Is waking with a thrill of dread!
The dead are waking underneath!
Their, prison door is rent va way!
And, ghastly, with the seal of death,
' They wander in the eye of day!
The temple of the cherubim,
The House of God is cold and dim;
A curse is on its trembling walls,
Its mighty veil asunder falls!
Well may the cavern depths of earth
Be shaken, and her mountains nod,
Well may the sheeted dead come forth
To gaze upon a suffering God.
Well may the temple shrine grow
dim, T
When He, the chosen One of heaven,
A sacrifice for guilt is given.
And shall the sinful heart, alone,
Behold unmoved the atoning hour,
When nature trembles on her throne,
And death resigns his iron nnwer?

O, shall the heart whose sinfulness

uave Keennees to Mis sore distress,
And added to His tears of blood
Refuge its trembling gratitude!

Mary McAllister at the Temple
Beautiful little Mary McAllister,
the favorite of the children of Ocala,
will be seen at the Temple today in
"The Kill-Joy," which, is full of
thrills, humor and pathos. There are
no women in this comedy drama, the
characters are all men with the lit little
tle little actress, Mary. That alone makes
the picture unique. ..
The story opens with the, death of
an easterner who is traveling through
the west in a prairie schooner with
his little daughter, Billie, in. search
of health.. He falls over a cliff while
hunting water. A, citizen of Content Contentment,
ment, Contentment, a little colony of woman-haters
nearby, finds the child. The town's
laws provide hanging as the penalty
for bringing a person of the opposite
sex within its borders.
The kind-hearted Contentmentite,
however, decides to secrete the child
in his shack overnight and ride with
her to the next village at dawn. The
other villagers, suspecting something,
peep through the window and see lit little
tle little Billie's blond hair on the pillow of
one of the bunks. Her face is hidden
and they think she is a woman. A
committee is organized to get a rope,
and the others storm the cabin.
Then is when the thrills start, and the
wild and woolly stuff cuts loose.
In this picture little Mary accom accomplishes
plishes accomplishes the feat of driving a tteam of
horses hitched to a heavy wagon
along a narrow way, and James Ful Fulton,
ton, Fulton, who weighs 250 pounds, can ride
a horse like an Indian.

"Young Mother Hubbard" and "In
