land, both noted as painters. Miss
Reynolds spent her childhood on the
wide, heather-covered Yorkshire moors
and the wild Cornish coast. The pas
sion for space, freedom and the Inn
mensities which she voices in 'Whis-

her early environment.
The book itself is the result of a
winter on the Mediterranean and in
Egypt, but the heroine, who after
thirty years of cramping duties as "a
niece" longs to accomplish something,
can by no means be identified with
the author. Miss Reynolds has accom-
plished a great deal in less than thirty
years. She created stories before she
could read: wrote, acted and produced
plays for home and school before she
reached her teens: published her first
story at sixteen and her first novel,
Red of the Rock at twenty. She
has a decided talent for drawing and

SILVER MEDAL
MUSICAL CONTEST

The musical contest held at the
Methodist church last night was a
great success and drew a big crowd.
Much of the success of this contest
was. due to the persistent and untir-
ing efforts of Mrs. D. "A. Smith, as
musical director of the medal con-
tests. The prizes consisted of four
silver Tyres, one for each of the sue
cessful quartet, namely: Frank
Gates, Harry Cole, w. H. McMahan
and w. A Altman. There will be
other contests soon until there are
enough silver meadls to hold a gold
medal contest. DR.. w. H. Dodge pre-
sented the medal with a fine talk tC
the singers and the crowd. DR.. J
| NJ. Gross was also requested to make
few remarks which he did in, hi:
own masterfu1 way. Altogether thi:
contest will long be remembered a:
one of the most pleasant entertain
ments held in Ocala for many a day.

COMMUNICATION FROM
BLITCHTON AND
FELLOWSHIP CHURCHES

Your joint committee appointed
by associate conference of Fellowship
and Blitchton Baptist churches to
draft resolutions in re the refusal
of the President of Marion County
Fair Association to allow literature
of the w c. T. T. to be distributed
in the Marion County Fair Grounds
enclosure, respectfully submit the
following:
Whereas: The president of the
w. c.. T. U. of the city of Ocala has
made application to the president of
the Marion County Fair Association
for space in the fair grounds, with an
intent to distribute literature well
known to be in the interest of civic
Righteousness, correct moral stand
ards, temperance, and all that con-
tributes to the welfare and fIappi-
ness of home; and
Whereas: The president of the
Marion County Fair Association per-
emptorilly denied the apepaI for
such space to be utilized for such
purpose, assigning as the chief rea-
son: You (the w. G. T. U.) are a
political organization, and
Whereas: We object to, and re-
flute, the imputation that the w. c..
T. U. is a political organization, but
on the contrary, one whose mission
is to labor for the advancement of
all those exalted principles of vir-
tue which adorn humanity and res
cue mankind from the paths of err
ror and intemperance; to mould pub
lie opinion by purifying the public
heart, lending dignity and charac-
ter to individuals, to nations; and to
thwart the tendencies of the age
intemperance and Generalization !;
therefore
Resolved: That the Blitchton and
Fellowship Baptist churches, in Joint
session, condem the directors of the
fair for permitting such action and
usurpation of the president of the
Marion County Fair Association, and
hereby refute his allegation, that the
w. G. T. u. is a political organiza-
tion, and now appeal to the manhood
| of Marion county to come on swift
feet to the rescue of the w. C. T. U.
whenever and wherever their cry is
heard for fair play and a square
deal.
Resolved: That we contend it is
better to have space from which lit
erature of the w. c. T. u. may be
distributed than have the many pages
of the fair premium lists and pro
grams dotted with whiskey advertise
ments, that promote the interests o
saloons, and thus give approval tt
drunkenness, which sears the consci
ence, hardens and corrupts the hear
and depraves and degrades the mind
and thus forever unfits its poor un
happy victim for the discharge of al
the vast solemn duties which clus
ter around the soul of every human
being.
