THE BAND CONCERT
Ideal Laxative.

The weekly band concert last week
was truly delightful, more so tnan US
ual on account of the perfect weather.
The crowd was much larger than on
the previous Friday night on account
of the more formidable weather.
The children playing about the
court house, the dozens Of autOmo-
biles whizzing around. and the large
crowds on the Ocala House piazza and
in the court house square, listening
to the music, and the splendid music
rendered by our magnificent band all
combined to make the evening a great
treat to our people, and to the many
visitors to the city as well.
The program was an unusually
splendid one, and was as follows:
March, The Crisis"-R. B. Hall
Waltzes, Belle of Seville. B.

was replete with splendid thought and
was expressed in very beautiful Ian

Our new superintendent OF public
instruction, Mr.. j. H. Crimson, was Sc
lected to deliver the diplomas to the
young graduates, which he did in a
very pleasing manner.
Next came the presentation of the
gold medal that is awarded each year
by the board of public instruction to
the pupil in the high school depart
ment making the best scholarship for
the entire term. OF course the pupils
and their friends were greatly inter-
ested in who had won the medal and
were on the qui vive of excitement.
Mr.. L. w. Duval, who is one of our
best known young lawyers and who
makes exceedingly clever speeches,
delivered the medal and did it well, as
he does all things. The remarks he
made were bright and amusing, and
when he announced the winner of the
medal, Mr.. Robert L. Anderson, Jr., it
was met with a most enthusiastic re-
Spouse. Mr.. Anderson's average for
the year was a fraction over 90 per
cent. Miss Mabel Beck of Fellowship
and Miss Helen Brown ran Mr.. An
derson a very close race, and the diff
ference between their averages is only
a hairs breadth, and their friends are
exceedingly proud of them. All three
made averages above So per cent, the
fraction of 1 per cent. deciding the
winner.

the commencement exercises, and did
his duty most gracefully.

The Graduates Given a Supper
After the graduation exercises the
members of the graduating class were
given very lovely supper by Mr.. and
Mrs. Robert L. Anderson, in compli-
ment to their son, who won the schol-
arship medal
The guests were seated at the liable
in the dining room, where the appoint
ments were perfect. In thl, center of
the table was beautiful vase of roses
and at each place was a quotation on
life, being most appropriate to these
young people, who are about to en-
bark on the sea of life.
A twO-course supper, including sal
ad and its Accomplishments, followed
by ice cream and cake, was beautiful
ly served and greatly enjoyed by the
happy class.
AS a souvenir of this memorable Oc-
casiOn each one of the young ladies
was presented a lovely silk sewing bag
and the gentlemen handsome purses.
The supper given by Mr.. and Mrs.
Anderson to the graduates will al
ways be remembered by them as a
happy termination of their graduation
