81 have heard that Jacksonville is
a real nice little city. but 1 shall have
to judge of that some other time.
From Jacksonville we went to
New York bv boat and both of us
were seasick. We still had some
rice on our hats and we found that
our baggage was all beautifully deco
rated with dainty white shoes and
quantities of beautiful white ribbon
which 1 expect to use for making
girdles.
''But when we arrived at New
YOrk-just think of US being in that
great big New York!-we hardly
knew what to do there were so many
things that we had heard about that
we hardly knew where to begin. We
went to the Waldorf first and decided
we liked the looks of that hotel pref
| ty well SO we settled there and
planned program for the day. Ru5
we finally decided We had just rather
stay with each other, so we didn't
see anything in New York, but it's
nice place, though
The next day we went down to
Buffalo to see the exposition Just
as we got into the grounds We open
ed our umbrellas and were literally
showered with rice that those thought
full friends had put there. We were
quite embarrassed but we headed for
| the Pike to ride on the Senic rail-
way. We were SO fascinated with
! that that we decided to spend all of
our time there. l advise everyone
/ to ride on the Senic railway. 1t is
certainly a grand way to spend ones
honeymoon.
, "Harry's money gave out so he de-
cided he had TO get back home to
work. He wouldn't tell me he did
MT have any money for he was afraid
l might Immediately quit him. We
came back in hurry He wouldn't
even let me bny any fruit on the cars
and he wouldn't let me stop in Jack
sonviile. We just changed cars and
! came straight 10 Ocala, after having
spent a perfectly dear and sweet
, honeymoon and all the money We
we could lay our hands on. Buffalo
must be beautiful city from all
] heard about it. But We saw only
! each orher.''
! After the letters were read a TWEEN
! ty-minute stop-over was given. The
| porters brought around delicious
lunches of salad, crackers, sandwiches
and pickles done up in boxes and all
left the cars and found various coy
: places TO eat the lunch that had been
SO beautifully prepared.

cake was served, after which the
guests were treated to some delight

such a success and they have af-
forded such pleasure and recrea-

the organization will resolve itself
into a permanent society for the
purpose of providing amuse-

pie of this city. The concerts
have been largely attended and
they will be continued until the
end of the season.
At the concert which was
given last Tuesday night a sug-
gestion was made that a Ladies
Auxiliary to the park assocla-
ton be organized and Mrs. John
D. Odeneal was made president
of this society and Mrs. Chas.

is the purpose of this organiza-
tion to assist in raising funds to
defray the expenses of the park
and to further provide for its
