MRS. McKEAN's JIG SAW PUZZLE
PARTY

The jig saw puzzle craze, that has
taken the north and east by storm,
and that is now becoming quite a
craze in the south, has reached Ocala,
and in this novel and thoroughly de-
lightful manner Mrs. George R Nc
Kean entertained a few of her
friends on Saturday afternoon. There
were three tables, four Lads being
seated al each table and each one
having d different Jig saw puzzle to
put together. 1t was the first time
that some of the ladies had ever seen
these puzzles and they proved TO be
an intensely interesting mode of en-
tertainment, as there is something
truly fascinating in putting together
these queer little puzzles. There was
a picture of Silver Springs, one of the
Methodist church, one of the Baptist
and other local points, each of the
twelve puzzles being different.
Mrs. Mexican was assisted by Mrs
Charles Rheinauer and little Miss
Onie Chazal, who passed the score
cards and helped in other ways, and
also worked one of the puzzles.
Mrs. Mexican entertained her
guests in her large dining room, and
her party was both attractive and de-
Iightful. Her guests were: Mrs. B. !
J. Potter, Mrs Charles Rheinauer, ,
Mrs. D. E. McIver, Mrs. E. L. Carney. !
Mrs. Buena Mimms, Mrs. Clarence
Camp, Mrs. G. S. Scott, Mrs. Van
Hood, Mrs. E. P. Rentz. Mrs. J. w. |
Pearson and Miss Onie ChazaL
Mrs. McIver succeeded in putting |
her puzzle together first and she was
given a lovely little cup and saucer as /
/ prize.
Mrs. Mexican served as a first !
course oyster cocktail and sailed wa
ers, followed by grapefruit salad,
cheese balls, beaten biscuit and cof-
zee.

From an unknown chord hymn.

In the reign of Edens prime;
And its notes still seem to vibrae
In my heart at the present time.
My mind is filled with wonder
Of things not know:
Exactly of how they happened
In the ages of long ago.
Yet in this curious world of mystery
Our friends our heart seem dear;
And as we think Of human affection
We note the dropping of a
Humanity is a thing wonder
And the days and years still fly;
Yet all bound together
By human tie
We are bound in ignorant bondage
But read: The truth shall make Won freei"
Then surely this deliverance
From darkness for you and me.

Our minds endeavor penetrate the reason
or heartthrobs and human pain;
Yet our thoughts become like vapor
And efforts seem in vain.
we toll and live and struggle
For the cause that's right just
Only for defeat conquer
And grind success to dust
Many are born in distress and penury
And poverty-stricken through life they 90.
Finding but few blossoms of comfort
And die in and woe
Friends here is the of comfort
For those who down and OUT"
1t IS the morning Bethlehem
Which will Danish darkness and doubt
Cod gave TO the world a Savior
To help us burdens bear;
And at last to guide to heaven
For there is sorrow there.
So here's happiness to all humanity
In sorrow pain and distress:

He their deeds and lives will bless
Then sing and dream like a dreamer!
In loving Saviors embrace;
For His love ser you shining
Some day you will see His face
Oh hearts, then worry!
