the Herman Weise place, east Of
town, after shipping his crop, has
decided that California is the place
for him, and last Saturday with his
wife and children he left for that
distant land.
Mayor John T. Hames came up
from Winter Haven last Saturday to
spend the fourth with his family
Miss Gertrude Carter has return
ed home from visiting her friends
at Tampa.
Mr.. Sidney Thompson and Mr.
John Styles of Dunnellon spent Sun
day in town.
Mr.. ]. T. Thompson left for Nc
Intyre, Ga, last Tuesday, after
visit with his daughter, Mrs. j. \.
McAllister.
Mrs. George Spencer made bus
mess trip to Ocala last Tuesday.
And by the way, it reminds me
that little Leo Hames made three of

base five times. Some ball swatting
that
| Mr.. Davis of Orlando was in town
visiting with friends several days
last week.
! Mr.. John Kistner of Gambler spent
several days last week at the Has
KEEL ranch.
Miss Eloise Henry motored up to
/ Belleview last Monday with her
friend, Miss Ball of Tampa, who left
on train No. 3. after spending sew
eral weeks at the Henry home at Ok
1awaha
The Belleview boys crossed bats
with the Oxford Melons last
Thursday afternoon on the BeIleview
grounds They came up from Ok
ford for the expressed purpose of
taking the measure of the Belleview
boys for future reference, and they
/ jotted down in their note books as
they left, Oxford Z, Belleview 5.
And they extended a cordial invita-
tion to come on down to Oxford and
they would do even better than that,
What makes those Oxford boys so
strong and swift is the amount Of
exercise and practice they get in
handling watermelons
One of the regretful affairs at. the
ball game last Saturday was the
spiking of one Of the Belleview boys
by one of the Summerfield runners,
and from the best information that
cowardly trick. This is the second
time that a Symmetrical player has
spiked a Belleview player, and it is
hardly right to inject professional
ism into these local games, which
are held purely for the sport and
pleasure of the community.
Miss Maude Proctor, who has
been visiting in Ocala, came down on
last Friday and was met by her
father and after visiting while
with friends, Mr.. and Miss Proctor
drove homeward.
Mr.. David c. Stanley has grown
small but select crop of broom
corn which he has sold to Mr.. VIM.
H. Mitchell, the artistic iron worker,
: who has a small broom making ma
chine and who will make it UP into
brooms The broom that Mr.. Stan
ley showed US had touch as soft as
velvet.
Some of those Summerfeld girls
at the ball game last Saturday were
; just loaded to the neck with enthus-
iasm for the Summerfie1d boys, to
such an extent that it made me feel
; glad to see the amount of loyalty
! that Charlie Davis has instituted into
some of these staid Symmetrical
. denizens.
) Mr. D. Haskell drove Billy Boy
to Ocala last Thursday
. Mrs Delbert Haskell was in town
) last Monday for the first time since
; her recovery from her recent illness
Mr. Tremere has gotten that two.

his reckoning, on time and calendar
