I ought to do What I ought to do By the grace of God. I will do." Are we all living up to that? If not let us get busy and help these youngsters.

And when some gray-haired brother sings the ones I used to know I sorter want to take a hand—l think cf days gone by— "On Jordan's stormy banks I stand and cast a wistful eye!” There's lot's of music in ’em—those dear, sweet hymns of old. With visions bright of lands of light and shining streets of gold; \nd 1 hear 'em ringing—singing where memory dreaming gtands, "From Greeland’s icy mountains to India’s coral strands.” They seem to sing forever of holier, sweeter days. When lillies of the love of God bloom ed white in all the ways; And I want to hear their music from the old-time meetin g rise Till 1 can read my title clear to man sions in the skies ” We never needed singin’ books in them old days—we knew— The words, the tunes of every one— the dear old hymn book through. We didn’t have no trumpets then, no organs built for show. We only sang to praise the Lord, "from whom all blessings flow.” An’ so I love the good old hymns and when my time shall come— Before the light has left me, and my singing lips are dumb — If I can hear ’em sing them, I’ll pass without a sigh To (anaan's fair and happy land, where my posessions lie.’* —Frank L. Stanton. Biliousness and Constipation "For years I was troubled with biliousness and constipation, which made life miserable for me* My appe tite failed me. 1 lost my usual force and vitality.

THE OCALA BANNER ,0U HIKING GLOBS ' IN GREATER NEW YORK They Swing Along Highways and Through Woods in Groups •of Varying Size. New York.—One must walk nowa days to be in the swim. Statistics gleaned from the out-door departments of the newspapers, from the Boy Scout and Campfire Girls’ organizations, from the T. M. C. A. branches and kindred bodies, from scores of amateur athletic clubs and from the leading dealers in sporting goods, indicate that • • j “Best Walkers Make Best Citizens,” Says Mayor of New York. today there are no less than 8,000 hiking clubs in Greater New York, with a total membership of more than a quarter,of a million men and wom en, who are keeping themselves in the pink of condition and experiencing the real joy of living by getting regularly out Into the open country with no oth er means of locomotion than their God given legs. The city of New York has taken offi cial notice of the movement. On three occasions recently Mayor Hylan has congratulated the hoys and girll of the public schools upon their enthusiasm in taking up the new sport of hiking. In bis dedication of the great new pub lic playground In the Bronx the other day Mayor Hylan extolled the athletic tendencies of the boys and girls and impressed upon them that there was no better or more profitable way in which they could pass their vacations and utilize their holidays than by the excursions into field and forest of their walking dubs. He gave the same message to the Amateur Athletic Un n of Brooklyn a few days later, and ,eri a club of East Side b/ys and girls visited him at city hall preparatory t a hike to the tomb of Roosevelt*’ at Oyster Bay he assured them that the hest walkers among them would make the best citizens. Walk and Be Well No less enthusiastic a champion of the walking game is Dr. Royal Copeland, city health commissioner. “The benefit to health and the safe guard to morals to be found in long walks,” said Dr. Copeland in an in terview, “are too apparent to speak of them. If one takes long walks alone It is well, for he walks the road of health, but if he takes long walks in company it is better for he adds the tonic of companionship to his exercise. Walking is the one form of exercise in which there is the minimum risk of overdoing it. In short, I consider walking the most beneficial of all exer cises and it is never out of season.” “Never in my life-time,” said Ed ward R. Wilbur, manager of a nation ally known sporting goods store, “have I known such a demand as now for out door garments and shoes and stock ings and appliances for the tourist’s luncheon box. The rapid spread and tremendous popularity of the walking club Idea has no parallel in our ex perience. “The hiker can make his requisite just what he feels like spending. Real ly, there are only two or three articles indispensable to hiking—thick walking shoes that allow lots of room, thick woolen socks and clothing that will give freedom of limb. He should have a canvas or leather musette bag, su%h as the soldiers used in France. The Cow In the Knapsack “To get the real benefit and Joy out of hiking luncheon should be carried and prepared and eaten in the open. Bread and cheese, a few slices of bacon, some coffee, a can of condensed milk, and a cake of chocolate fur nish high-powered fuel for the hiker and are readily and happily assimi lated even by those who in their pre hiking days were afflicted with di gestive apparatus so feeble as to balk at crackers and milk. Fortunately for the hiker, he cun replenish his simple larder at any cross-roads store and provide himself with the most nutri tious and appetizing food in a form that can be conveniently carried. “No single development in the prob lem of food transportation for the hunter, fisherman, hiker and all lovers of the out-of-doors can compare with the gift bestowed by the man who first found the way to make con densed milk, thereby putting a dairy in every man’s knapsack. Before long there will be a national association of hikers, and Gail Borden will be its pa- Ton saint. Such an association could do much to encourage the spread of the most beneficial and universal of all outdoor pastimes, map out interesting toutes, secure the establishment of shelters, rest-stations, and camp xites at suitable locations, and insure the rights of pedestrians on country roads.” A BIT OF FLORIDA HISTORY , j Hard upon the heels of the peace terms signed at Fort Dade in 1837 by General Jessup on the part of the United States, came an influx of im migration. This was the first peace i treaty with the Seminoles and it open ed the territory from Fort King (Ocala) to Fort Brooke (Tampa) and ! settlements sprang up on the red hills about Fort Dade and the lower j levils and richer lands about Pasco, both in the present county of Pasco. As originally parceled all of this J region was in Alachua county. In 11846 the legislature created Benton | county and with a county seat not now known, its name being designat ; ed in susequent act of the same ses | sion as “Chuckachattee.” the exact lo ication of which has disappeared from j history as well as geography, though I Fred Cubberly, an authority on Flor ida history, has stated that he has seen the town located on at least one old map of the state and thinks it was near the present town of Ista chatta in the northeast corner of Her nando county, though admitting it may have been near where Brooks -1 *ille is located. ; These Indian names, sometimes ! with striking similarity, are frequent- j |ly confused in usage. For instance, j ! an atlas published in 1882 locates the i town of Choeoehattee about five miles j ! southeast of Brooksville, which is near the center of Hernando county. This may be the same town desig nated in the act setting up a seat of justice, the names differing only in the first syllable. This would har monize with Mr. Cubberly’s admis sion that the original seat of justice might have been near Brooksville. As just stated. Hernando county was originally called Benton county in honor of Missiuri’s famous senator. Thomas H. Benton, whose daughter Jessie became the wife of John Char les Fremont, the “Pathfinder.’’ A legislative act passed December 24, ISofi, changed the name Benton to Hernando through political jealousy, it is alleged. On June 2, 1887, the carving-up pro cess began on Hernando when Pasco was taken from it. Citrus county was also carved from it, as the original northern boundary as established by the legislative act was the Withla coochee river to its junction with the Little Withlachoochee, then fallow ing the latter stream south to the present south line of Pasco county.— I Agnew Welsh in Miami Metropolis. INCREDIBLE. AFTER ALL There was a report last Thursday i that Gov. Allen of Kansas had up held the Attorney General of his j state in ruling that William Allen White violated the law in making public his 49-per-cent, sympathy with the striking shopmen. The World commented editorially on the affair, and there has been no denial of the incident or the conditions that led to Nevertheless, it seems only fair to Kansas and to Gov. Allen to state ; that there must have been some mis take, that the thing couldn't have hap pened. It might have happened in Soviet Russia but it couldn't have happened iD Logan County, W. Va. The expression of 49-per-cent, sympa thy with an industrial group could not be judged illegal or dangerous in any community of which the government remains 49 per cent. sane. The gov ernment of Kansas has always stood , for progressive legislation, even for ! radical experiment. That it should without warning favor a form of coer cion and censorship more mediaeval than the dark ages is utterly beyond belief. Gov. Allen established the Indus trial Court, it is true, but when he was last in New York his conversa tion was fairly rational, at that. Who will believe that he has gone complete ly mad and the entire state govern ment with him? —World. RAILROADS PROFITS WERE DOUB LED IN PAST YEAR Operating income, or profit, of the large railroads has increased almost 100 per cent over last year, it is re vealed by reports filed with the In terstate Commerce Commission. This information becomes public at the time wheh "hundreds of thousands of railroad workers have been forced to strike for living wage. The reports show that 136 of the leading roads in May, 1922, had a net operating income of $46,967,700 as against $29,393,000 for the same month last year. This result was achieved in face of a heavy curtailment of coal shipments resulting from the miners’ strike. The operating revenues of these roads increased under the same com parison one-tenth of 1 per cent, while the net operating expenses decreased 6 1-2 per cent. # DODGE TRUCK A 1921* model Dodge Business Car, with express body, first class mechani cal condition.
