While putting the finishing touches on the chimney the hoisting rope broke and left him without any means to descend. Life guns finally shot him a hoisting rope which he grasped. He was almost frozen when he descended. * * * A community corncrib, large enough to hold all the corn that can be ofier . and, will be erected in Neligh, Ne braska, if the plans of business men of that city carry.

FAME OF MEMPHIS BEING SPREAD THROUGHOUT FLORIDA BY ESTABLISHMENT OF CHAIN OF PIGGLY WIGGLY STORES BY TRI STATE PIGGLY WIGGLY CO. LOCAL FLORIDA AND GEORGIA CC. “PJggly Wiggly” Will Have a Home 3n Ocala What’s in a name? Piggly Wiggly j came to town in Orlando, Miami and [ Tampa to demonstrate there is money j in a name. She is not yet registered in Ocala but the local bankers and business men who organized the Tri-State Pig gly Company state that with a little co-operaticn of Ocala families it will be possible to open a store shortly. Piggly Wiggly was born in Memphis in 1916, the child of much business i today. Today marks anew era in the gro cery business with Piggly Wiggly's debut all over the nation. Get your pocketbooks ready, ladies; she is go ing to save you money every day. We speak of ‘she’’ because the work will be for the (women —more spending money tor your allowance. Does not this mean good business? One is forc ed to believe Mr. Saunders who origin ated “Piggly Wiggly,” that he had some advice of some "smart woman to so understand the means of reach # ing a. great end. Just to think of two clerks serving from 100 to, 4000 people a day. And how is it clone please? When you go through the drill the way will be simple. Every purchaser becomes her own clerk. They pass '.hr igh o rarastile each is loan ee] a basket. Every article is plainly marked with a price. The shelves are arranged aml standard brands of goods -are placed together. Why, what has seemed so intricate at first is now co simple and satisfactory. Yen take what you want, place it in your basket and the clerk sums the Y as you pass out, places your purchases in a sack for your conveni ence and returns your basket to its place for the next shopper, while you leave the cash in his charge. Saving three cents cn a pound of cohee dees not seem worth while, but on three pounds you have 9 cents, and then three, cents on most thing you need each day will certainly figure to your own advantage. The grocery supply is complete, j Tri-State Piggly Wiggly Company ■ wiJI put in a store in Ocala as soon ! as capital is raised by local co-oper | aticn to about one-half of the amount needed to operate a store. The growth | of this cash in of unique self-service | stores has been exceedingly rapid, j they having spread over the entire i country in the last few years. WATERSCN’S PULITZER PRIZE WINNING EDITORIAL Since the death of Henry Wat tersen, many papers have been re producing his famous editorial, writ ten on April 7, 1917. It was printed in the Louisville Courier-Journal and was accorded the Pulitzer prize as be ing the best editorial of the year. The title of the editorial was “Vae Victus” (Woe to the Vanquished) and the gifted editor, whose pen has been stilled forever, wrote as follows: “There are times when feeling must be sent to the rear; when duty must toe the line; when the aversion brave men have for fighting must yield to the adjouration, ‘Give me liberty, or give, me death!’ That time is now upon us. “Unless Patrick Henry was wrong —unless Washington and the men of the Revolution were wrong, that time is upon as. it is a lie to pretend that the world is better than it was; that men the truer, wiser; that war is es capable, that peace may be had for the planning and the asking. The situa tion which without any act of curs rises before us is as evident as that which rose before the Colonists in America when a mad English claim ing to rule without accountability, asserted the right divine of Kings and seDt an army to enforce it. A mad German Emperor, claiming partner ship with God, again elevates the stan dard or right divine, and bids the world to worship or die. “From the beginning, the issue was not less ours than of the countries first engaged. Each may have bad ends of its own to serve. Nor were these ends precisely alike. At least France —to whom we owe all that we have of sovereignty and freedom, and Belgium, the little David of Nations —fought to resist invasion; wanton cruel invasion; to avert slavery piti less slavery. Yet, whatever the ani mating purpose—whatever the selfish interests of England or Russia and Italy—the Kaiser scheme of world conquest justified it. “First of all on bended knee we should pray God to forgive us. Then erect as men, Christian men, soldierly men. to the flag and the fray—where ever they lead us—over the ocean— through Fianers —across the low countries to Kohn, Bonn and Koblens —tumbling the fortress of Entrenbret- THE OCALA BANNER tin into the Rhine as we pass and damming the mouth of the Mozelle with the debris of the ruin we make it —then, on to Berlin, the Black Horse Cavalry sweeping the wihelmstrasse like lava down the mountainside, the Junker and the saber rattler flying before us, the tunes being ‘Dixie’ and ‘Yankee Doodle,’ the cry being ‘Hail, the French Republic—Hail, the Re publica of Russia —welcome the Com monwealth of the Vaterland —no peace with the Kaiser —no parley with Auto cracy, Absolutism and the divine right of Kings—to hell with the Hapsburgs and the Hohenzollerns!” WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN FOR SENATOR The announcement that Mr. Bryan will be a candidate for the United States Senate against Senator Park Trammell,''no doubt will give the lat ter gentleman some concern though no one seriously believes that he can defeat Mr. Trammell. It would be political blindness, how ever, to say that he will not be an imposing figure in the campaign. Mr. Bryan is a mighty campaigner and will call to himself a strong following. If elected too, he would put Florida on the map in the matter of states man ship. The senators who have been in tbe habit of riding rough shod over the southern senators would find a thorny path in trying to walk over Mr. Bryan. The cross of gold and the crown of thorns might be the decorations he would place on some of these men who have been too much in evidence in the senate. What ever else may be said of Mr. Bryan, he is fearless. But Senator Trammell will most likely succeed himself. He will have to do some good campaigning, but he can do it. Mr. Bryan will find Sena tor Trammell as capable of defending his honors as any man he ever cam paigned against. Trammell is a na tural campaigner. Both gentlemen are for that matter, and Florida has promise of an interesting campaign. —Orlando Reporter Star. GOOD WORK IN A GOCD CAUSE Many unique schemes to help the jobless in various communities of late have been brought to the attention of President Harding's conference on Unemployment, but nene more novel than Philadelphia’s—“ Join the Drexel Biddle Eible Class and get a job.” The Bible Class meets every Sun day in the parish house of Holy Trinity church. An employment bu reau which functions remarkably well, according to figures furnished, is run by John A. Hawkey and Robert Bethel in conjunction with the class. Hawkey is a former pugilist and was bayonet instructor for the marines during the war. In the service he met Major Anthony J. Drexel Biddle, one of the foremost amateur exponents of the fistic art in the United States, who has taken on many a professional prizefighter in his day. But he gives up his Sundays to the service of the church. A veteran of the war. Major Biddle co-operates with the American Legion in placing applicants for jobs. He has the promise of a long list of Philadel phia firms that they will give any man ! employment if sent with the Drexel Biddle endorsement. Proof of the extraordinary success j of the scheme is that the Bible class ! has placed 271 applicants in jobs out of 299, and the good work is still go ing on. “I take off my hat to the Drexel Biddle Bible Class,” said Colonel Ar thur Woods, chairman ,of the Emer gency Committee of the conference, today. “They are certainly living up to their slogan. If a job isn’t worth praying for, it isn’t worth having.' THE RENEWAL OF LIFE Hon. Chauneey Deprew at the age of 87 tells how he reached such an age still feeling varite and youthful: “I am an optomist. My mother and my grandfather died in their old age worrying about things that never happened. I decided that I would not Number One Why number one? That’s our Telephone Number.

BRYAN STILL THE SUBJECT OF COMMENT However lightly the junior senator may consider the threatened candi dacy of Mr. Bryan, the national press evidentlly is of an opposite opinion. In this connection we' quote from the Baltimore Sun: “Mr. Bryan, if Washingt:n rumors be true, is willing to be senator if he cannot president. There may be a considerable difference between being a senator and being right, but still, e ven with the mixed society which the senate represents, it is a forum which has its compensations and pleasures. It is rarely a stepping-stone into the executive chair of the nation, but it provides publicity for the ambitious, and to a man of Mr. Bryan’s oratorical resources, it would offer daily and de lightful opportunities for holding the center of the stage. ‘lf the Commoner puts Senator Trammell out of business, Florida will at least have the distinction of oc cupying a large place on the political map. And some of the elder states men in the senate may find things not quite so comfortable for them as they have been accustomed to find them in the past.—Tampa Citizen.
