! Brand New Dry UunneiIC


| people in the world reside in EDun-
nellon-that from September E We
| became a town OF good schools and
churches, and our motto in H. flu
! ture will be The dryest town b. the
United States, and not the ettest
town in Florida"
Just look at the picture Of our
new school building, which yoI help
ed to start. We expect to fAsh il
before you come again and VI will
show you one of the neatest School
buildings in Florida And n nnel-
lon will soon fill it up, for Re are
going to devote more attention, to
raising children, building I good
homes and making DunnelloR I. the
garden spot of Florida, than 10 de-
voting so much of our time to Telling
and drinking booze, as We have been
justly charged with in the past.
Come back to Dunnellon some
time soon, and We will take pleasure
in driving you over our main Streets,
which are paved and beautifus and
let you feast your eyes on out town
of complete sewer system, brilliant
electric lights, with plenty of tie best
drinking water in the entire state.
Our mutual friend Knight who
was so long the original AMI only
prohibtionist in Dunnellon,I is on
the job night and day, and lis the
happiest man in Marion county, he
having seen the little band OF drys
grow from three at one election up
to sixty-eight, sufficient to throw
DunnellOn in the dry column, and l
think he has a right to be proud and
thankful
We have organized a live board of
trade in Dunnellon, and we mean to
work hard to make Dunnello1i what
it should be-the best town in Flori
da; and with the loyalty of olr citi-
zens, and your help in the Golden
Age, we will do it. / believe that the
same effort put forward to dry the
town will build it up. 1t CAN'T help
building, as we have everything here
to build it out of-land, phosphate,
timber turpentine, water and blucky
citizenship.-Golden Age, Alta nta.
Christy Mathewson-the Man
One of the most interesting public
characters Of the day is Christy
Mathewson, the famous base ball
: ton to every lover of manly sport,
. not only because of his marvellous
: skill, but because of his splendid
! physical condition, which he has
!: maintained during his thirteen
years of strenuous work on the dia-
|. mond.
!. There is reason for the continu-
!: ed proves of Christy Mathewson,
:: while other pitchers endure the
!. strain but few years and pass on
s He is a man of temperate habits. He
{ has full command of his mind and
!. body. He lives a quiet, rational
!. life and observes the simple laws of
: health, with the result that after
!. thirteen years ON the diamond he is
J. still the pink of physical condition.
|: Moreover, he is a man of charac-
!. ter and self-control. 1T is claimed
!. that he never played a game of base
!: ball on Sunday, and declares he new
er will. This is worthy of mention
!. as indicating the strong character OF
Z Mathewson. 1t indicates that in ad-
!: dition to his wonderful aim, his
; keen eye and his alert brain, he is
: a strong, self-reliant man, whom
|; neither adversely nor success is like
I: ly to divert from his chosen course
{: of duty
: Surely the youth of America, as
: we'll as their elders, have a good
: reason to admire Christy Mathew
: son.
