invitations to their commencement

There are thirty-four grad lates in
dentistry this year two of whom are
Mr.. Paul c. Gates and Mr.. Benjamin
3. Toddof this city. who will on next
Thursday receive their degrees and
diplomas, both having completed the
prescribed course with merit and
honors.
We are very sorry to learn that DR..
Todd will not return to Ocala to prac-
tice his profession, but expects to To-
cate in Atlanta, where he has an ex-
cellent opening, and we are sure that
he will meet with great success in
the profession that he has chosen. as
he is an exceedingly bright and
splendid young boy He expects to
come home in June to spend a few
days visiting his mother brother and
sister here.
DR.. Todd has formed co-partnership
with DR.. Delos Hill, who is one of At
lanta's leading dentists, and who is a
member of the faculty of the Southern
Dental College. Dr. Todd has also
been appointed to act as demonstrate

each day.
DR.. Gates will also not return home,
but will locate at Macon Ga, with
one of the leading dentists of that at
tractive city, having been offered this
place since last summer. His many
Ocala friends are sorry not to have
him at home, but wish for him the
full measure of success in his new
home.
Both these young men have worked
their way through college, and are
abundantly deserving of every sue
cess that can come to them.

FIRE AT GOLDEN ACRE FARM

Mr.. Chas. f. Schneider, manager of
the Golden Acre Farm" located a
few miles south of the city, said that
another fire occurred there Monday
night. The fire caught in the corn
crib, which is built eight feet from
the ground, so Mr.. Schneider is puz-
zled to know just how it originated
Besides destroying the crib and it's
contents, it burned the tool house and
about $500 worth of tools. There is
an insurance on the dwelling and sta
bles, but unfortunately the insurance
clause did not cover the corn crib
and tool house.
Mr.. Schneider says that it took he
role work to save the other buildings.
but with the assistance of a few
neighbors, attracted by the blaze,
this was accomplished.

ocALA WINS FROM DUNNELLoN
Galloway and keppler Homers for
OcaIa, Help to Win Game

0dllOWdy ana NePPIeF 7omSTS TOT
OcaIa, Help to Win Game
A baseball game that was "a real
game" was played Wednesday after
noon in Dunnellon with the team of
that place and the Ocala team.
Juite a crowd from Ocala, in auto
mobiles, accompanied the team, and
those who went saw the most excit-
ing game that has ever been played
in Dunnellon, as it was no ones
game until the last man was out in
the last half of the ninth inning. Dun
mellon, with two out and two men on
bases-second and third-and two
strikes on the batter, needed two runs
to win the game. Galloway, who
pitched a wonderfully fine article of
ball, struck Tommie Thompson out
for the fourth time, but to make the
game more exciting, Kippler, who
caught a magnificent game, and
whose hit over center fields fence,
scoring two runs ahead of him and
giving Ocala a two run lead, dropped
the ball, and as he had his finger
injured earlier in the game he had it
tied up, and his throw to first hit the
ground about five feet in front of the
base; but Shorty" Mcleod, who play
ed first base par excellence, picked
the ball up for the last out and won
the game for Ocala by score of Z to
6.
Ocala was the first at bat Heidel
hit the first ball pitched, which struck
the corner of the plate and bounded in
the pitchers hands, who threw the
ball to first for an easy out. Harris
cracked out hot liner past third, but
died at second when Roberts bunted
in front of the plate, Vogt making the
third out when he hit TO second and
was thrown out at first.
Dunnellon scored two runs in her
half of the first inning, with the as
sistance of a couple of errors by
Ocala, which were the only ones they
made during the game.
In Ocala's half of the second Gallo
way, whose pitching and batting fea-
tured for Ocala, with one strike, hit a
high fly to left for a homer" and the
first score for Ocala. This gave Dun
Mellon one-run lead, which she kept
until the sixth inning. when Harris,
after getting a hit to left. was sacri-
feed to second and third, and scored
on a hit to right field by Vogt.
Dunnellon, not to be out-done, in
her half of the sixth. with two men on
bases, Metcalf, Dunnellon's best play
er, hit the ball an awful whack, and
it sailed over the center field fence,
giving them a three-run lead.
Ocala in the seventh scored two
runs and in the eighth, like Dunnel-
lon with two men on bases, Keppler
hit the ball for a home run between
center and right field. thus giving
Ocala a two-run lead. and the first
time during the game that she was
in the lead
The best Dunnellon could do was
to make one run in the eighth, and
the game ended in a victory for Ocala
for the second time this year.
