A Surprise Pounding.

Tuesday evening crowd of young
folks met at the home of Mrs. GA. Farris
for the purpose of giving Miss Marion
Galloway, one of the most popular of
the third warders, a surprise pound
ing. This young lady was indeed very
much surprised when about twelve
couples walked in and took possession,
which they did in quick order, but the
surprise was soon over, and Miss Gal
loway soon proved to the crowd that
she was fully capable of playing the
part of hostess, even on short notice,
and soon the congenial crowd of girls
and boys were enjoying themselves in
the numerous games that the young
hostess very readily suggested
At 10 o'clock the guests were invited
into the dining room, to enjoy the va
rious pounds" which were arranged
very daintily on the table, and amid
much laughter and jests the delicious
eatables soon disappeared. A blessing
was then asked for the things eaten
The crowd then adjourned to the par
lor, where singing was enjoyed until a
late hour, and ii was with reluctance
that the happy crowd bade Miss Gal
loway good night, thanking her for the
pleasure of the evening, and congrat-
ulating her on the gracious manner in
which she acted the hostess.
The third warders are noted for their
congeniality. Those present last night
were Misses Marion Galloway, Gertie
Kaiser, Lille Gamble, Rena and Edna
Smith, Meeks and Blanche Ausley. Lii
liam, Ruby and Leila Farr1s and
Messrs. Jim Carlisle. Cleve and Char
lie Williams, Felix Schneider, Flippin,
Jones, Deckle and Cecil Bryant.

present in person to greet the editors,
but the following welcome written
by him on the eve Of his departure
was gracefully delivered by Mr.. Louis
w. Duval of the Ocala bar:
Mr.. President, Ladies and Gentlemen
of the Florida Press Association:
The degree of pleasure afforded the
host at the coming of the guest de-
ponds on various circumstances and
conditions, not the least, if not the
most important, being who the visitor
is. If he is a greeable in his man
ners, entertaining or instructive in
conversation, adapts himself to the
he is usually welcome.
If, in addition, he is one of influence
in the world that surrounds him, espe-
cially for its good; if he be leader in
state or church or society, we feel the
more honored at having him under our
roof or within our gates.
Therefore, ladies and gentlemen. that
you may know our feelings as your
host, l will say that we have no fears
but that you meet every requirement
in the social and intellectual lines and
we greet you as visitors bringing cheer
and warmth TO our hearts and homes.
We are glad to look into your faces
and shake your hands. Come in and
sit down, put your grip in the corner
there-Sally will have dinner ready in
few minutes. Say, as you have come
a long ways and seem tired, come and
let US take a little something to re-
fresh YOU-Sally has some ice cream
for the women editors.
So. my friends, as we are now all
at home and free to speak our senti-
ments. may tell you how much above
the ordinary we feel honored at hav-
ing you meet in this city? As said
