Mr.. T. n. Wicker, mayor of Cole
man and justice of the peace of the
Coleman district, is visiting in Ocala
and is the guest of his sister, Mrs.
Walters. Mr. Wicker is one of the
big cabbage growers, and this is one
of the off years for this usually prof.
table crop. But he says you cannot
always get all the coons up the same
tree, and if every year was a record
breaking one the cabbage growers
would become so rich that they would
all buy automobiles and quit plant
ing. Mr. Wicker says that a bill has
been introduced in the legislature
making the county seat elections
the same as other elections, and I'M
der that arrangement the county seat
question of Sumter will soon come to
conclusion. The longest pole will
get the persimmOn.

On that blessed morning when Jesus
was born,
The glad tidings were brought to
the earth
BY the beautiful angel whose pleasure
To herald our Savior's birth.
And bright was the light of the BEAU
tiful star
That guided the wise men on their
journey afar
To the wonderful babe who in a man
ger lay,
And brought JOY to the hearts of many
that day.
He was a glorious gift from God to
this world,
And his banner of victory now let us
unfurl,
For is he not victor DER death and the
grave?
And by his precious blood now thous-
ands are saved.
On Christmas we welcome the day of
There's gladness and joy in all parts
of the earth.
He came as a blessing to the children
of men,
And when he arose from the dead he
blessed them again.
For, then, to us he promised new life,
After our battles are DER and we have
finished the strife.
Had he not risen our hopes would be
DER,
For the portals of death would open
no more.
But Christ has arisen; go tell it
around,
Let earth and heaven with the glad
tidings resound-
Our Prince, our Savior, has gone up
in the sky,
Where his children shall meet him in
the sweet bye and bye.
SO ring the bells joyfully,
And swell the glad day;
Strew bright flowers all around,
For Christ has arisen today!
Twas in the happy spring time,
When the flowers were in bloom
That our blessed Savior rose
Quit the grave with all it's gloom.
And if we only trust him,
We shall never go astray;
But we shall arise, as he arose,
On the resurrection day.
And have flowers not arisen
Out of the dark, cold ground?
And life and warmth and sunshine
And welcome they have found.
So ring the bells our joyfully,
And swell the gladstone day;
Strew bright flowers all around,
For Christ has risen today.
Let our hearts be ever thankful
And joyous as we sing;
And thank our Great Creator,
For our Lord, our risen King.

WE SHALL MEET AGAIN, LITTLE
PLAYMATE

CA bouquet of white carnations, ly-
ing on the small casket of George
Hendree Harrison, Jr,, bore a tiny
card, with the name of a dear little
friend, and these pathetic words,
1--WE shall meet again, little play
mate.'O
These are jewels in memory's casket,
That shine with radiance fair,
And the faces of loved ones bereft us,
Are enshrined forevermore there.
There's another small casket dream
of,
"As white as the driven SHOWS,
And the treasure lying within it
Is pure as the heart of a rose"
The flowers around and above it,
Are offerings for purity meet,
And the fragrance from waxen petals
Brings Surcease of sorrOw-sWeet.
On the many hearts that are aching
And longing, both early and late,
Breaks the light of beautiful prom
Use:
1--WE shall meet again, little play
mate"
In the morning, the noon or the night,
Be the time long or short that we
wait,
In the purpling dawn of an Easter
morn,
1--WE shall meet again, little play
mate"
1--WE shall meet again, little play
mate"
For the morning draweth nigh
And the light of this glorious message
Is red in the eastern sky.
