ANOTHER FIRST-CLASS
ADVERTISING IDEA
Moving Pictures oi Marion County To
be Shown All Over the United
States by the AIontg0merys

Mr.. \. G. Kent, representative Of
the Montgomery Amusement Co,
appeared before the meeting OF the
board Of governors OF the Board OF
Trade Monday evening with the
proposition OF his company to give
this section some OF the most effica
cious advertising it can have.
Mr.. Kent proposes 10 have pic
lures taken OF the best scenes in
Ocala and surrounding country and
shown TO the people in the moving
picture theaters served by his COM
pany. The film will then become the
property OF the Marion County Board
OF Trade, to use as it sees fit.
The plan met the appreciation of
the governors, who passed a resolu-
ton endorsing it in the strongest
terms.
1t is easy TO see that this form of
advertising is the most effective that
can be designed. All over the
country are people who have heard
of Florida and are anxious to visit
the state. and the indisputable evil
dence Of the camera before their
eyes will confirm them in the belief
Of the attractions and advantages
they hope 10 see.
turned over to the Board of Trade, it
will become a most valuable asset. 1t
can be sent to any point with any
citizen or booster of Ocala who de-
sires 10 use it in illustration, and as
moving picture machines are found
everywhere the material for a most
| convincing lecture on Florida will
always be to hand.
| 1t is Secretary Rooney's desire to
go out through the northwestern
states next year and do missionary
work for this part OF Florida. This
! film would be the most convincing
| testimony he can take to back W
the eloquent talks we all know he
can make. Others Of our promoter:
are willing TO use the film in the
| same way.
The amount to pay for the pic,
lures must be raised by subscription
and number Of our prominent citi-
zens have decided to help on it. Mr.
Ed. Bennett Of the Temple theatel
started the ball to rolling by a cash
subscription Of S25 and an offer tC
give 80 per cent of the receipts FOL
run in Ocala, which will be a bis
help if our people are patriotic anC
turn out we'll to see them.

Charities, High School

Profits From May Day Festival

Splendid progress is being made in
carrying out the plans of the May
Day Music & Flower festival. The
committee have abandoned the idea of
business men having floats in the
parade, excepting those having autos,
who will be urged to put them in
line. An enthusiastic meeting of the
festival committee was held, and it
was decided to urge every owner of
automobiles and motorcycles to join
the parade, even though some of
them do not have the time to decor
ate them. The plan is to demon
strate the number of cars and cycles
that are in the valley. Owners of
cars will be asked to assist in carry
ing the performers who will take
part in the big play at night. There
will be about 140 of these, and in
addition there will be chorus of 16
ladies from Clifton, who will need to
be provided places in the parade.
These ladies will remain over for the
evening performance and their sup
per will be provided by the festival
committee.
One encouraging thing is the hear

merchants in agreeing to decorate
