WOMEN
NEAR DEATH
IN POND
Picnic Party at Center Hill Wit
nesses Tragedy Averted by
Wee Heroes.

Heroic work of two little boys,
Mizel and J. C. Williamson, Of 7 Cray
Street. saved their mother Mrs. J. c.
Williamson and a young woman, Miss
Maud stradley, of S22 Simpson Street,
from drowning in Center Hill pond
Wednesday afternoon.
Mrs. Williamson has a class Of lit
tie girls at the Tabernacle Baptist
Church Sunday school, which she had
taken for an outing to Center Hill.
Her sons, ages 13 and IL, respect
lively, were in the party.
Ventured Out Too Far,
Mrs Williamson and Miss strad-
ley went In wading. The water was
muddy and they could not see the
bottom. but the water was so shallow
and the bottom 80 smooth that they
ventured farther from the shore.
though neither OF them could swim.
They were walking several feet apart
when the girls on the bank saw them
go under.
Panic followed The women in the
water fought with desperation OBJ
livious to the fact that opening their
mouths to scream was admitting the
fatal water The girls on the bank
called and shouted, and the two boys
rushed up to see their mother and
Miss Ctradley go down in the throes
of drowning
Boys Fine Swimmers.
AS they stripped part of their
clothes. J. c.. the younger, ex-
claimed:
TN save my mother or die with
her"
Before the boys could reach the
struggling women they had sunk for
the second time. When they came up
they screamed no more, and they
fought with feeble efforts.
The boys had learned to swim in
Piedmont Park lake and they hurried
perts Before the women had gone
down for the third time ]. c. had
grabbed his mother by the hair and
Mizel had taken hold of Miss Strad-
ley.
Made Brave Struggle.
It was soon evident, however. that
all danger was not passed. The wom-
en- were too heavy for the little fell
lows. There were shouts of encour-
agement from the bank. but the odds
were against the victims
The moment the accident occurred
someone had run for Policeman VIII
hanson. He was some distance away
and it had taken some time to reach
him-seconds in reality. but it seemed
hours to the watchers.
As the boys were making for the
shore with their burdens he rushed
up.
He did not stop to remember that
he was a poor swimmer, neither did
he discard any of his clothes, but
plunged in.
Human Life Line Formed.
Another tragedy threatened when
he reached the deep water. Police
man williamson sank as the women
had. When he came up he saw that
it was vain for him to attempt to
render aid. The boys were making
progress toward the shore, so he
struck out for the shallow water.
When he secured a footing he
watched and gave instructions to the
boys. Holding hands, a human life
line was made by the girls and all
pulled ashore.
The boys. were exhausted and the
two women unconscious.
Mrs. Williamson is confined to her
bed, but her condition is reported
not serious. She is merely suffering
from a reaction from the shock. Miss
Stradley is up and all right except for
slightly sore throat.

ONE OF THE clTY's BEST DAYS
WORK

When the city council bought that
piece of property known as "Taylor's
pond," it did, in our judgment, one of
its best days work. If not an eye
sore it has been menace to the
health of the city for long time.
Streets are being gradually made
through it. and in time it will undergo
complete transformation.
In reality, without going into de-
tails, if proper measures are pursued,
and it be permitted to fall under the
skillful manipulation of experienced
landscape gardeners, it can be made
into a beauty spot. The stream run
ming through it can be controlled and
made to add to its charms.
Many city has transformed less
inviting ugly territory into a thing
of beauty"
Serpentine walks, cascades, water
falls, an artificial lake, trysting re-
treats, shrubbery, flower-beds, ETC.,
will transform it into a most delight
full rendezvous for holiday occasions
and quiet Sunday afternoon strolls.
1t can be made so beautiful as to
justify it's being called Little Eden.

DUNN ELLON

Commentator, wherever due is a
motto of the Enterprise-Recorder,
and it is now to the little city of Dun
Mellon, in Marion county, that we ex-
tend our heartiest congratulations
For years and years that little city
has been spoken of as one of the
wettest places in Florida. The phUs-
plate industry has brought number
of people there, and among these were
several who loved everything that
goes to make up what some people
choose to call "big time"
But now things have changed. In
the recent wet and dry election in
Marion county, although the county
voted wet, Dunnellon voted dry, and
that means that Dunnellon will be
dry. We trust that she will be dry
in fact as we'll as in name, and if that
is the case, the money formerly spent
for liquor will be spent in other and
more profitable lines of industry.
There is a bright future for the 1t
tie city, if she only holds fast to hel
crown, because there's money in
phosphate, and it doesn't depend OF
the weather as long as cotton does
with us. We earnestly trust that sucf
will be the case.
Here's to Dunnellon. It is due
