living and dead of its Confederate
soldiers. The state pays out the
handsome total of $3.50, 900 per
annum in ex-Confederate pensions.
The per capita payment to ex-
Confederate pensioners averages
1922, a larger per capita average
than any other southern state. In
addition to this benefaction, the
state maintains homes for Exon
federates. Throughout the state
handsome Confederate monuments
have been erected by public and
private means.
A Confederate reunion amid such
environments appeals to the whole
south. Being the first reunion held
in the state, it is the first oppor-
tunity that the veterans and their
friends have had to see Florida at
a nominal cost. Railroads have
granted a rate of one cent a mile
on account of the reunion, and in
terest is keen in the meeting in all
southern centers. An attendance
of from 100000 to 10000 is con-
fidently anticipated by the Jack
sonville Reunion Association.
Arrangements are being made
on a most elaborate scale to enter
tain the visitors. A camp will be
located in one of Jacksonville
beautiful public parks for the en-
tertainment of 5000 veterans at
the expense of the city. These old
men belong to the class who are
not financially able to bear their
own expenses while attending the
reunion. They come largely from
the Confederate Soldiers Homes
of the southern states.
Three parades will be given
through the streets of Jacksonville
during the reunion. The Sons of
Confederate Veterans, who hold
their reunion here May 5-s in
elusive, will be in parade May g.

TONFEDERATE vet
} Grams throughout the
south are preparing
for their Oath annual
march to the city that was
fortunate in securing their
reunion. This year they
meet at Jacksonville, the
wonderfully enterprising
metropolis Of Florida. The
veterans and their descend
ants are looking forward
to this reunion with in
creased interest, because it
is their first visit in a body
to Florida. Every other
southern state has enter
tanned the Confederate vet
erans, some of them as
many as three times. Flor
ida has long nursed an am
bition to entertain them,
and last year at Chatta-
nooga Jacksonville won the
fight for the reunion of this
year after a sharp contest
with other enterprising
cities.
The entire state entered
actively into the contest at
Chattanooga, and the re-
union is regarded as an
honor to Florida. Cover
nor Park Trammell, one of
the youngest chief execu-
tives of the country, as
well as one of the most accom-
plished, said recently in a signed
statement that he esteemed it one
of the most pleasing and gratifying
events of his administration of the
Office of governor of Florida to bid
the veterans of the Confederacy,
from all sections, welcome "as the
guests of the warm hearted people
of this great state.

May z, when the Confederate vet
Grams will pass in review.
Confident of its ability to handle
a Confederate reunion in all of its
various details, Jacksonville, a
city with a skyline, water front
and spirit that does things, ex-
tends cordial welcome to the ex-
Confederates and their descendants
to enjoy Florida hospitality and
see the states many wonders,
promising that everything possible
viii be done to make their visit
pleasant and instructive. The
broad St. Johns river, the Atlantic
ocean, Florida forests and flowers,
a modern, progressive city, and a
citizenship typical of the New
South, but loyal to the ideals of the
old, are a few of the attractions
that the visitor will enjoy.
Florida realizes that the gray
line grows thinner each year; that
the time is fast approaching when
the survivors who passed through
the storm of lead and fame at
Gettysburg, or engaged in the
death grapple at Chickamauga, and
a hundred other battlefelds, will be
summoned to their last reunion. As
the line marches on Jacksonville
for its Oath annual reunion, it will
be given royal welcome and the
people of the whole state will salute
with love and reverence the sur
vivors of one of the greatest armies
the world ever saw. -
