Germany's reply, as received by wire wireless less wireless here, is regarded as an' awkward attempt to accept Wilson's terms for an armistice.

The note announces that Germany has agreed that the condition of an armistice should be left to military advisers, and that the actual stan standard dard standard of the-power in the field should form the basis of 'the arrangements. 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.

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.

You were kind enough to wish that 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 here. 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 tion position cf teacher but have been engaged in the very difficult and diplomatic and discriminating position of em employer ployer employer of teachers. We have had num numbers 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 dent "incident in your general policy -of oppo opposition, sition, opposition, antagonism, criticism and gen gen-eral eral gen-eral enmity toward the system in vogue of .public education. - By the way; I have not found a .single man who has children to be educated who is opposing the amend amendment. ment. amendment. I do not say that there are not any but in looking over the list of those who have stood forth as cham champions pions champions of ignorance, I do not know-any of those to have school children. To start with yourself as the great leading apostle of ignorance, you have no children to educate and when you dich have you patronized the schools of a denomination that is not known for its friendliness to public educa education. tion. education. This was strictly your own business and it is not my purpose to even suggest a criticism of your ac action tion action but possibly just this fact will go-a good distance to explain your persistent nagging and faultfinding of the public schools. Then you have a communication from "C" in which he bemoans the fate of the poor tax-payer. Will some of your admirers take the trou trouble ble trouble to find out from you who "C" is and then ask "C" how many school children he has ever had, how many he has now and how many he expects to have? Then you have one from "Cracker" and, by the way, can you not get "Cracker" to write some more? A few articles yke that will help .us along'and be appreciated. Will some one who is interested not take the trouble to find out from you who "Cracker" is, and although I have no means at all of knowing still I should not be surprised if it developed that "Cracker" lived in an elegant home in Ocala and is a large property holder hsre but has no children in school. Then comes "Old Fax and Figures" just like he was running for the leg legislature islature legislature for the steenth time and thought he had found the hobby: that would surely carry him under the wire and land him in the green pastures, and, come to think of it I think he has no. one to attend school. These are just little side lights along the way and do not really have any bearing on the main subject un under der under discussion as to whether the pro proposed posed proposed ten-mill amendment is a good thing or not. They may help some folks to understand why some folks oppose it. In closing your last article you toss me the following bouquet: "Your language is not only plain, Mr. Brin Brin-son; son; Brin-son; it's homely." If you call mine homely what on earth do you call your own profane and slangy effusions with which you adorn your pages ? 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, ventives, preventives, in which case he is f or or-giveable. 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 intelligible unintelligible if they were left out. Now, I have carried on this discus discussion sion discussion in perfect good humor, and the Star's readers can bear witness than T have not called anybody any names nor alluded to anybody's personal af affairs. fairs. affairs. It is, permissible, I think, when a man is running for office, and I know he is a drunkard, a gambler or dead beat, to say so, for such failings will bear directly on his conduct in office.

Arguments for or against it should be judged strictly on their own merits, not on the merits or demerits of those who made them. 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 sidered considered them the greatest of our in institutions stitutions institutions the one we could least spare. It is less the booklearning they teach than the spirit 'of democ democracy racy democracy they inculcate in the young peo-v pie that makes ,them valuable. They are for boys and girls the beginning of the acquaintance with public af affairs fairs affairs that they must more fully learn as men and women. They help cement a community in common interest and are the foundation of more enduring friendships than any other institution. I have never thought it was neces scry to proclaim my belief in the pub public lic public school system any more than I have thought it necessary to go out in the street and wave a flag and yell that I was an American. I don't think the teachers and pupils of the Ocala schools, whom I have taken such pleasure in seeing, and helping whenever I could, believe I am an en enemy emy enemy to public schools, and I don't be believe lieve believe Mr. Brinson thinks so. I hope he will, when he has time to think about it, forgive himself for his ill-natured article as freely as I do. J. H. Benjamin.

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.

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 How Can I Save Sugar on a 21b. Ration?
