Germany's reply, as received by wire wireless

attempt to accept Wilson's terms for

NOTE RECEIVED
Washington, Oct. 22. The official
text of Germanys' latest note to the
United States was received by cable,
today at the Swiss legation.
NO ANSWER TODAY
The appearance of the Swiss charge
at the state department with the note'
was delayed several hours as the task
of decoding and translating proved to
be long; and tedious. Considerable
difference of verbiage may be shown.
It is understood the official text will
clear up certain obscure passages in
the wireless version. The indications
were that no announcement of a de decision
cision decision by President Wilson could be
expected before tomorrow. Official
comment continued to be withheld,
awaiting an indication of the presi president's
dent's president's views. Every one expected him
to decide quickly.

Paris, Oct. 22. The German reply
to President Wilson was received too
late for the afternoon papers, but it
was eagerly discussed in official cir circles
cles circles and parliament. As a whole the
note is found to be equivocal, tor tortuous,
tuous, tortuous, and platitudinously phrased to
leave the door open for all sorts of
quibbling. Now is there any evidence
in the reply of a genuine desire to ac accept

BILL OF CIVILIZATION
AGAINST GERMANY
(Manufacturers Record)
What a staggering biil it will be!
It will be a bill for four years, up
to the present time how much longer
no one yet knows of the most fear fearful
ful fearful crimes which the world has ever
known. y
It will be a bill for the millions who
have died in defense of civilization
and for the millions who have been
blinded and maimed and permanently
invalided. j
' It will be a bill for all the agonies
which hundreds of millions have nad
to endure.
It will be a bill for the tears which
have flowed from the eyes of mill millions
ions millions of mothers and wives, sisters
and sweethearts because their loved
ones have had to endure all of the
hardships which the vilest ingenuity
of hell could instigate as they fight
on the side of heaven in the battle
against hell.
It will be a bill for such sorrows as
earth has never known by dishonored
wromanhood which in shame and
i deathless woe cries out to heaven
against the criminals.
It w-ill be a bill for mangled chil
aren ana tor tens oi tnousanas oi
helpless babies done to death by Ger-
many s crimes.
r
It will be a bill not merely for the
tens of billions of money, not merely
for the ships that have been murder murdered,
ed, murdered, for the towns and the countries
that have been ravaged, for the cathe cathedrals
drals cathedrals and churches that have been de
stroyed; these are only a part of the
I material things which must be charg-
ped against Germany in the bill of civ
mzauon against Daroarism.
ilization against barbarism
It will be a bill which no human
vord3 can ever portray, and.no'audi and.no'audi-tor
tor and.no'audi-tor can ever state in figures.
These are some of the items in this J
bill against Germany, the magnitude
of which no expeVt accountant who
ever lived could measure byfJ human
calculations. v
Though the tears can never be wip
ed away, the broken hearts never be
mended, the millions of murdered
brought back to life, the dishonored
womanhood never be restored, the bill
must be summed up in .the most
graphic language knowp to mankind.
It must be written on the pages of
human history with a pen fed by the
blood of millions of' broken, bleeding
heaits. There it will stand forever
as an unpaid debt from which Ger Germany
many Germany can never through eternity be
cleansed.
As well might Judas have sought to
blot out the reality of the betrayal of
his Lord and of the agony of 'the
crossi as for Germany to hope ever to
wipe out the record of its crimes. In
letters of fire, burned into the soul of
every man and women living now, or
in the centuries to come, they will
forever stand. s
Germany will for ten thousand
years be regarded as more -typical of
rotten-heartedness than Judas .and
Nero. -,
Though Germany can never wipe
outthis bill, there is a bill for mater material
ial material things which should represent eve every
ry every dollar spent by America and our
allies in saving civilization from be being
ing being destroyed.
There is a bill for every ship that
has been murdered, for every pounci
of foodstuffs and raw materkils of
which Germany has robbed others.
There is a bill for the disruption
and disorganization of every business
on earth.
There is a bill for every fruit tree
cut down, for every town looted and
burned, for every car and locomotive
stolen. These things must be summed
up and Germany be made to pay to
the uttermost farthing.
To require anything less" of Ger Germany
many Germany would be to condone its crimes,
to become an apologist for them, and
a co-worker with Germany insapping
the wrorld's moral strength.
There is also a bill which can be
paid only by the death-upon the gal gallows
lows gallows of the leading criminals.
Stand by our soldiers in .their
march on to Berlin! where -this bill
must be collected if civilization is to
be saved.

I continue in office until I am called
to the other side. This being the
.case please give me something to
work with and do not tie my hands
nor those of the board while we are

I wish to return the good wish by
saying that you are altogether too
i. .
good an editor to be devoting your
abilities to trying to tear to pieces
the educational fabric that the best
and ablest people in the state have
been ; working faithfully upon for
more than forty years.
Your attitude toward the public
school for a long time has been that
of an unfriendly critic. Time and
again you have referred in insulting
and disparaging terms to the' teach teachers
ers teachers as a body" and they have' toiled
patiently on with the exception of
those .who felt that they must take
care of themselves by accepting other
work and larger remuneration.
Since occupying the office of super
intendent I have not been in the posi position

in the very difficult and diplomatic
and discriminating position of em employer

bers numbers of disappointments with them
and some have proven themselves un unworthy
worthy unworthy 'the noble name of teacher,,
but the teachers as a body are worthy
of the respect of the best people of
any community and also worthy of a
decent living wage.
Today we need just twenty white
teachers in Marion county more than
we have. While the condition is acute
on account of war conditions, it has
been growing upon us and the super superintendents
intendents superintendents and board members and
trustees1 those who have the burden
of employing teachers and financing
the schools- have recognized that the
work, was outgrowing the income.
The work of the people connected
with school work has, been all the
time to raise the standard of, the
work and to build up just as strong
body body of teachers as possible.
For. any one to criticise this purpose
would be to brand them as being
either densely ignorant inexcusably
soor a straight out enemy of public
education.
Your opposition to the proposed
ten-mill amendment is only an "inci "incident

go-a good distance to explain your
persistent nagging and faultfinding of

Good night, pleasant dreams.
J. H. Brinson.
In replying to the foregoing, I am
using the first person singular; part partly
ly partly because the little w and e on my
twpewriter are worse worn than the
capital I; partly because Mr. Brinson,
unable to put up a good argument,
has dragged some of my personal af affairs
fairs affairs into the ; controversy.
I am afraid Mr. Brinson wasn't
feeling well when he typed his little
screed. He has departed from the
philosophical calm demanded by his
office and shows evidences of being on
the ragged edge. I think he had been
taking some of them influenza pre preventives,

giveable. or-giveable.
He is also inaccurate, for he speaks
of my three-column article. Mr. Brin Brinson
son Brinson wrote forty per cent of that ar article
ticle article himself. Mr. Brinson is great
on forty per cent. That's how much
he wants your taxes increased.
I have no desire to "tear to pieces
the educational fabric," nor have I
tried to do so. I should like to see
some changes made in it, and I do not
see why as a citizen and a, journalist
I shouldn't be allowed to express my
opinion. There has been no complaint
of. my criticisms except from Mr.
Brinson and an element among "the
educational autocracy" that thinks
nobody outside their own little circle
has any right to an opinion on school
affairs. '.
Neither have I referred in "insult "insulting
ing "insulting and disparaging terms" to the
teachers. I have criticised what I con-i
sidered the faults in their system, I
have said that they had no right to
special privileges and that they were
no" worse off than people1 in other call callings.
ings. callings. Isn't all this true ?
Perhaps some of Mr. Brinson'a
soreness is explained in the paragraph
! where he says that for anyone to
criticise the work of the people con connected
nected connected with school work was to brand
them either with being ignorant or
enemies of public education.
I have not thought so in fact, I
have always thought and always sajd
that our county school board and
county teachers were doing good
work, and I have not blamed them
for the faults of the state system,
and I do not see why Mr. Brinson
takes such a load upon his own shoul
ders. Perhaps it was the spif pre
ventive that was working on him just
then.
I have given my reason for oppos
ing the ten-mill amendment because
it was unnecessary, unjust and un-.
patriotic taxation. I have no "gen "general
eral "general policy of opposition, antagonism
and general enmity toward the sys system
tem system in vogue of public education," and
I hope Mr. Brinson will not repeat
his assertion to that effect, for it
isn't true.
I do not know who Mr. Brinson has
consulted about the amendment. Some
fifty or more citizens of different
parts of the county, all patrons of
the public school, have" informed me
that they approved of the Star's
stand on the question. In this as in
other things, I always consult people
who are interested.
I don't know whether the title
"apostle of ignorance" fits me or not.
I would rather wear it than the one
due Mr. Brinson, which is "the apostle
of unnecessary taxation." My friends
shall judge and if they think I de deserve
serve deserve the dunce's cap I will wear it
with good humor.
I am sorry, however, to see Mr.
Brinson drag my personal affairs
into this controversy sorry for him.
It is more like Catts than Brinson,
and in my iong acquaintance with
Mr. Brinson I had begun to believe
that intolerance was foreign to his
make-up. But since he thought he
must bring up a personal matter,
why didn't he tell all the truth, in instead
stead instead of half of it. We all know what
the old proverb says of half the
truth.
Mr. Brinson says to you, in mean meaning,
ing, meaning, if not in words: "Benjamin sent
his son to a private school because he
opposes public schools; he sent him to
a Catholic school because he prefers
the Catholic church to a Protestant
church; therefore, you ought to vote
for the ten-mill amendment."
How do you intelligent voters like
such an appeal to your prejudices?
Isn't such an argument purely and
entirely camouflage? Will the fact
that I sent my boy to a private school
make it any easier for you to pay that
ten-mill tax?
Don't you think that a citizen has a
right to send his children to any
school that he thinks necessary, and
don't you all know that nine-tenths of
the academies, colleges and universi universities
ties universities in the United States are private
schools. Are not Yale and Harvard,
Cornell and Chicago, Leland Stanford,
Tulane, Vanderbilt, Stetson, Columbia
and Southern private schools ?
I did not send my boy to a private
school because I preferred it to a
public school, nor to a Catholic school
because it was a Catholic school. It's
nobody's business but my own, but I
have no objection to telling about it.
To begin with, my boy began his
studies in Miss Sharpe's kindergarten
(Mr. Brinson didn't tell you that) and
Miss Sharpe, as most people in Ocala
know, is a very strict .Protestant.
Then he went for two terms to the
Ocala public school Mr. Brinson
isn't telling you that, either. And, if
I had been situated as the average
citizen is situated, he would have
continued to go there. I was not so
situated, as most of my friends know
Mr. Brinson, as well as any of
fhem. It became necessary for me to
choose between sending the little
boy to a boarding school where he
would be under control of his
teachers twenty-four hours a day, or
letting him run loose on the streets
during a large proportion of his wak waking
ing waking hours. So I sent him to a board
ing school, and it is no 'fault of mine
that the Protestants did not have one
available. For that matter, at that
time, the great Mr. Catts had not
come among us to sow strife and
reap public office, Protestants and
Catholics were living in peace, and it
was nothing unusual for Protestant
children to go to Catholic schools. The
school my boy went to--St. Joseph's
Academy near Mandarin, in Duval
county was one of high reputation
and many Protestant boys have been
taught there in fact, I first heard of
it because a Protestant recommended
it to me. My son went to this school
six years and the sisters in charge
took good care of him. They gave
him a home as well as a school, treat
ed him as a little brother -as well as a
pupil and I will always be grateful
to them for what they did for him.
When he graduated there, he might
have gone to the Ocala high school if
he had wanted to. He preferred to go
to St. Leo College and I acceded to
his wishes. St. Leo is also a good
school and 'enabled him to finish his
education in much less time than any
high school could. Now, if Mr. Brin Brinson
son Brinson or anyone else can make any
political capital out of the manner in
which I have educated my son, he is
welcome to it.
The appeal to religious prejudice
is small business. Neither the Cath
olic church nor any Protestant church
has any influence on my views of
public ipolicy. Everybody in Ocala
knows that Mr. Brinson as well as
anybody. The men who founded the
American government intended it to
be strictly secular, and I have" always
followed their lead.
Mr. Brinson and myself have been
together a good deal in the last ten
years and have talked with great
freedom on public matters. The idea
that I opposed public schools never
entered his head until I began to op oppose
pose oppose that precious ten-mill amend amendment.
ment. amendment. "C." is a man who knows more in
ten minutes about property and tax taxation
ation taxation in Marion county than Mr.
Brinson knows in half a day. He
pays considerably more toward the
support of the schools than Mr. Brin Brinson
son Brinson does. He has no children neither
did George Washington, who made
more splash in history than Mr. Brin
son and Teddy Roosevelt put together.
"Cracker" can take care of himself.
He has brought up almost as many
children as did the patriarch Jacob,
and' is now engaged in looking after
his grandchildren. If we are to de decide
cide decide the ten-mill amendment on the
basis of children, why not refer it to
a well-known colored citizen in the
third ward, who has nine.
It is easier to abuse "Fax and
Figgers" than answer him. Every
taxpayer knows that the taxes have
increased, just as he says they have.
Mr. Brinson is entirely right in
saying his article is just little side
lights along the way, and does (not
have any bearing on the-subject under
discussion. The trouble about his
sidelights is that they are shaded
with green glass. He will find they
have hindered more than helped him.
My language is whatever my read readers
ers readers may choose to call it. I have
never allowed any profane language
to go into the paper, unless it was
part of a court record. As for slang,
Mr. Brinson, I presume, is well enough
postedto know that the English
language is so largely made up of
slang expressions that it would be un unintelligible

against it should be judged strictly
on their own merits, not on the merits

The Star has been with the people
of Marion county almost a quarter of
a century, and they ought to know
where it stands in regard to public
schools. I myself have always con considered

Long, Long Ago, Last Year
I used to think it mattered
Long, long ago, last year,
Whether winds blew cold or warmly,
Whether skies were dark or clear;
I used to sigh for sunshine
. When clouds hung heavily,
But I do not mind the weather
Since my dear lad crossed the sea.
I used to seek for pleasure
Those long twelve months ago;
How eagerly I followed it
And hurried two and fro!
Thev used to seem important thangs,
The game, the play, the dance;
But I'm done with foolish idling
Since my dear lad went to France.
I used to pray for many gifts
Long, long ago, last year,
For empty things like wealth and
fame,
For comforts counted dear;
But now just one prayer from my
heart
Goes up unceasingly:
"O God, give peace with honor,
And my dear lad back to me!"

Mollie come through the old-fashioned
garden and seated herself beside
her aunt.
"In all this town of curious crea creatures,"

"Poor, handsome Homer," laughed
Mollie. "Aunt Martha, I have a wick wicked,

lady. Won't you at least introduce me
to the considerate man who thought thoughtfully

non-marriageable intentions?'
"Mollie!" her aunt exclaimed, "are

So It seemed. Mollie smiled her
prettiest when the Interestingly aloof
one was presented. Mr. Vane was
courtesy Itself. Mollie decided that he
had both studied and traveled, which
was true. But when the young lady
visitor from the city again met the
"one good-looking man," a brief bow
was his only salutation.
She saw him occasionally from her
retreat, as he passed her aunt's home
in his car. Mollie loved automoblllng.
She could fancy delightful rides about
this beautiful country. And the girl
was lonely In her self-appointed exile.
Never had she imagined days could
contain such long-drawn hours.
Aunt Martha, doing her best with
village guests, was discouraged. Mol Mollie
lie Mollie longed to be flying along a wide
road, the sweet air blowing in her face,
In her heart a spirit of adventure. Any
presentable 'driver would answer the
purpose, she told herself.
Farther down rippled the waters of
a lake. Mollie wanted to travel down
those rippling waters in a motorboat
now resting against the shore. This
boat, she learned, "was also the prop property
erty property of the selfish Homer." Selfish?
Mollie wondered
"Devoted to his invalid mother for a
lifetime, denying himself that broader
living which a nature such as his must
crave. Suddenly a smile curved the
girl's lips. Why not for just one after afternoon
noon afternoon give him a holiday? Other men
had sought the privilege of her com companionship;
panionship; companionship; why should not this man
find it amusing also? The -gift, she
realized, would have to be forcibly be bestowed.
stowed. bestowed. Mollie walked up the hill
that began at her aunt's very doorway.
Not long since the object of her
thoughts had dashed up this way In
his car. Usually he' returned in a
short time down the hill.
"TJp looking over one of his farms,
was the way her aunt explained these
errands.
True to her expectations, as she
paused In the center of the dusty road,'
the car came on again, seeming to slip
oyer the top of the hill. Its occupant
raised his hat, while Mollie put forth
a detaining hand.
. "Please, she said sweetly, "if you
are going down wont you carry me?
It is a long way to walk.
Homer Vane quickly restrained his
glance of amazement. "With pleas pleasure,"
ure," pleasure," he agreed, and assisted her into
the car.
"From here," said Mollie, disap disappointedly,
pointedly, disappointedly, "one cannot get a view of
the lake. I hoped to see it, but cannot
climb so high."
"I would be delighted to drive you to
a good view point," he suggested, and
at her quick nod of acceptance, the
car swung about for the upward trip.
He was agreeable and easy to talk
to, this unusual man. Mollie had not
expected such easy victory over his
reserve. From the lake view they rode
on through glorious country, and his
laugh rang out at the girl's Ingenuous
remarks. Frankly she confessed her
stratagem.
"I was lonely," she said, "and I
did want a ride. You were such a dif difficult
ficult difficult person, Mr. Vane. Of course,
Aunt told me that your time was too
fully occupied to waste entertaining
young women, still she hesitated.
"My mother," he murmured, "is de dependent
pendent dependent upon my care."
Mollie laughed softly. fThere are
two of us, then," she said, and held out
a hand with a sparkling ring. "That
is my sign of devotion to one subject,
yet, why shun other companionship, or
forego simple pleasures which make
time pass happily?"
"Would you like a lake ride tomor tomorrow?"
row?" tomorrow?" he asked.
"I must go back to the city," she
said, disconsolately, "to be, married."
Homer Vane appeared disconsolate
also as he drove Mollie to the station.
"We will go over the old hill once
more," he said, and sighed.
At the lake view, he stopped the
car's engine and bent to gaze Into Mol Mol-lie's
lie's Mol-lie's face. "Remember what you said
about my obstacle?" he asked. "Well,
it's gone. Mother is going to marry
her old widower neighbor. She told
me today. But that can't help me
now."
Suddenly Mollie's eyes were shining.
From her pocket she drew a letter.
-"The man I was engaged to," she said,
"writes today to release me. We were
both too young when It happened. He
realized my Indifference when I came
away. He, too, has changed and so"
"So the last obstacle Is removed,"
the man cried, and Mollie smiled Into
his radiant eyes. 4

A man may build a palace, but he

accomplish this.
GOOD TURNS BY SCOUTS.
Freshmen were met at all incoming
trains by scouts in Ann Arbor and
given proper direction.
The odd jobs and the difficult tasks
in a town naturally fall to the scouts.
In Grand Rapids, Mich the scouts car carried
ried carried sewing machines to the different
homes where Red Cross meetings were
being held.
Scouts in Johnstown, Pa., built a
mailbox wheel for the convenience of
the local mailman. It had about ten
boxes on it.
High Notes.
New York's most valuable place of
amusement is the Metropolitan opera
house officially rated as worth $3,-375.000.
