OCNLA MEN At
4 JACKSONVILLE OUTING

ON Aug. II Messrs. Walter =. Per-
kinS. Ed Dreyfous, O. c. Schwartz and
y. NJ. Dusky. four Of Ocala's most pop
ular bartenders, went to jacksonville
to attend the annual outing of the
local bartenders' union, which took
place about four miles from Jackson
Vile on the st. Johns river at a beau
tiful spot known a. Seven Oaks.
Messrs. DreyfOus and DuskY went on
to New York after attending the pic
ME, but NesSrs. Perkins and Schwartz
returned TO Ocala, and report a very
enjoyable time. There was somewhere
between two and three thousand people
al the picnic, over half of whom We're
ladies. Tickets were sold at $50 each,
which amount included all expenses
for the day, and boats We're run on a
schedule whereby one could go TO or
from the picnic ground every half-h our
during the day. At the picnic grounds
one could have all the cold beer, soda
water or ice cream one could wish,
and at noon there was plenty of all
kinds of good things to eat, including
plenty Of nicely barbecued meats, all
of which was free.
The bartenders who were present
from Ocala enjoyed themselves SO
much that they are now working to
have a similar affair somewhere near
Ocala. to which all the ladies and
children, as we'll as all the men, Will
be heartily welcomed, and the boys
say that they will make special effort
to make the occasion an enjoyable one
for the ladies. It has not Yet been full
~ decided where the picnic Will be
held, but presumably short distance
down the river from silver Springs.

FATHER JtCKsON's EDICT
AGAINST FEMININE FASHION

When II comes to putting the kibosh
on the pride of the eye and the lust
of the flesh" Atlanta has a minister
who Is right up near the head of the
class-and what is more, he's a Cath
Ollie.
Rev. Father o. y. Jackson, pastor of
St. Anthony's Cathedral-he being the
man in question-has issued an edict,
or announcement, or proclamation, or
whatever you may call it, to the effect
that women attending his church must
have their bodies covered up.
Not partly, but all.
There must be no nudeness Of the
arms; no nudeness Of the neck and
shoulders; no nudeness Of any part or
section whatsoever, save the face.
Nor is that all There must be none
Of that cIinging effect around the legs
and hips, so calculated to divert the
men of the congregation from con
temptation of holy things.
Father Jackson declares that a
peek boo waist or a hObble skirt is
worst than no waist at all, or no skirt
at all.

Since the founding of Atlanta it has

SELWYN r.. ROWE

Quite a shock came to many Of our
citizens today when 1t became known
that Mr. S. E Rowe was dead.
Mr.. Rowe, while able to attend to
business. had not been we'll for some
time, tho neither he nor anyone else
thought he was seriously i'll. \ few
days ago, he was the victim Of an at
tack Of malarial fever, and went TO
the hospital. He seemed 10 BE- doing
well there, and this morning had
about decided to return TO his place Of
business on North Magnolia street. He
sat up in bed and gave some directions
about business matters to his daugh-
ter. Mrs Mary Bogie, drank a glass Of
buttermilk and seemed we'll enough 10
dress and leave his room. He decided
however TO remain in the hospital an
other day. Mrs. Bogie left 10 carry
out his instructions and Mr.. Rowe
after drinking another glass Of milk
lay down. a few minutes later, a
nurse, going into his room, found him
unconscious and unable to breathe
She summoned a physician, but before
the doctor could arrive, Mr.. Rowe had
passed away.
Mr.. Rowe was born at Holden, in
Maine 81 years ago. He came to Flo
rida about thirty years ago and first
settled at Spring Park, after which he
and his family removed to Ocala. and
have been here ever since. Mr. Rowe
followed different lines of business
but for the last few years had conduct
ed a meat and vegetable market, be
side a restaurant. He made himself
an enviable reputation for fair deal
ing, was a kind hearted man, a good
neighbor and a faithful friend.
His relations in Ocala are his wife
Mrs. Jessie y. Rowe, his daughter
Mrs. Mary Bogie, and two grandchild
rem, Miss Ella BOgie and Master Franz
Bogie. In the course Of his long resi-
dence in the county, he made a grea
many friends, all of whom are sincere
lily grieved at his sudden death.
Mr.. Rowe's remains were embalmeC
by McIver & MacKay and held helC
subject to the wishes of his relatives
| 1t is not decided whether intermen
will be made here, or in Boston by tn
side of Mr.. Rowes sister, who dice
some years ago.

SUCCESS AND FAILURE

The following from the September
Cosmopolitan will be interesting to
all and encouraging to many:
There Is that in nature which is
called the law of average. Without a
knowledge of this law, the insurance
companies would be unable to do bus
mess. BY 1t they eliminate chance,
for chance applies only to small num-
bers. Understand the working prin-
ciples Of big things, and there is no
uncertainty. The rest Is detail.
Business in the United States is not
an uncertain proposition, taken as a
whole. When you hear somebody say
that ninety-tive men out OF a hundred
fail in business, put it down on a par
with one of those ancient bromides
about nine men out Of ten in New York
City eventually filling a drunkard's
grave. 1t is what Ed How calls Hook
Work Talk"
Failure is the exception. Men may
die. but very, very seldom do they
join the wn-and- out club.
Failure, like disease, always sends
warnings; it rings it's bell and blows
its whistle. And most men, every
where, are able to side-step, hedge,
counter, duck, climb the fence, raise
an umbrella, and escape the grim
monster of defeat.
Always, of course, granting the die
tum that life is a dangerous business,
and none of us get out of it alive. But
death and failure are not synonymous.
Death is as natural as life, and for all
we know, just as good. Thomas Car
lyle said it was better, but he spoke
while yet alive. The only people who
20 taIy
go to sleep on the track when they
see trouble coming.
Success, of course, is a comparative
proposition. There is no such thing
as an absolute success. Neither should
there be absolute failure.
Last year, in America, there were
$4,000 failures. But just remember
that where $4,000 firms went into
bankruptcy, there were nearly two
million business concerns that didn't.
Also, note this, that of all bank
rupts, ninety per cent are men employ
ing a capital of less than 5000. OF
the 10000 failures in 1911, only 221
had liabilities of over 100000.
Failures can be traced to definite
causes, and almost without exception
moral bankruptcy precedes the finan-
cial smash.
And while we all fail. in certain
things, every day, the man who fails
absolutely is a very. very rare propo-
sition, with something peculiarly alb
normal in his constitution.
The law of average will show that
most of our acts and decisions are
right and proper, and altogether
worthy.
Mentally. the failure is defective;
physically, a wreck; morally, n degen-
crate.
Really, take us as we run, we are
not such a bad lot, after all.
The number of failures seems large
because more publicity is given to
bad news than to good news. Success
and good news are not proclaimed
from the housetops. The happy. eff
ficient, successful people go quietly
about their business, and these are in
the vast majority. Failure is the rare
exception. Man was made for success.
He who has nobly and patiently
worked at a worthy task has already
succeeded. And even Omnipotence
cannot make the past never to have
been. The past is ours. and death can
not rob us of It,
1t Is good to live!
