Rome, April 5.--The chief material
In the Roosevelt Vatican

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

ORMOND is FIVE miles north Of
Daytona, located on the western
bank of the Halifax River. The To-
cation of the town permits of good
drainage and perfect sanitation; the
elevation is superb and ideal for
winter homes. A wide bridge con-
meets Ormond with Ormond Beach.
Many fine residences are main
tanned on either side of the river,
most of them embellished with sub
tropical fora and shrubbery, besides
thrifty orange and other citrus fruit
trees.
The town is very cosmopolitan,
has an excellent graded school. sew.
eral churches, a fine public library,
up-to-date places of business and
comfortable and convenient hotels
and boarding houses.
Ormond has many of the Florida
att1s -tions-fne fruit, good fishing,
excellent automobilins, safe boating,
salubrious climate and pleasant
walks and drives.
AT Ormond Beach is located the
large Hotel Ormond, and its lesser
sister, Breton Inn. The former &C.
cupies a position overlooking the
Halifax River, while the latter has as
| its outlook the magnificent beach and
the broad Atlantic.
The walks in all directions are
particularly attractive, and the ar
bors, shady and inviting spots and
romantic hooks are crowded with
rustic seats which are mute invita-
tions to enter into the enjoyment
thereof.
Besides the broad, smooth ocean
beach there are many drives for car
riage or automobile-longd drives and
short drives; drives through groves
of golden oranges; drives through
dense tropical forests to Spanish
ruins; drives to the ancient Cause
way built by the slaves of planters
of long ago, and drives to the planta-
tons of hospitable settlers, whose
places are replete with the interest
of Southern fruits and flowers.
One of these interesting planta.
tons is Number Nine, located on the
peninsula, FIVE miles north of the
Hotel Ormond. Here you see a fine
orange grove, together with great va
rieties of other sub-tropical fruit:
and flowers.
Five miles further on you come te
