GROSS AND REV. BRIDGES
RETURNED TO OcALA

A telegram was received from Ar
cadia shortly after noon Monday con-
veying the pleasing information that
the conference appointments had
been made and that DIR. j. NJ. Gross
had been returned to the pastorate of
the First Methodist church in this
city for another year; also that Rev.
F. r. Bridges had also been returned
as presiding elder for the district for
another year. Everyone in Ocala is
very much delighted over these ap-
pointments, and will warmly welcome
these two ministers for another year.
Both DR.. Gross and Rev. Bridges
went to the annual conference this
year with splendid reports. Their re-
turn to Ocala was very much desired
and it is source of much gratifica-
ton to their churches that they were
sent back for another year.

MEETING OF THE BOARD OF
PARDONS

At the last regular meeting of the
state board of pardons, the board
heard, considered and passed upon
ninety-seven applications for pardon.
Fifty-five of these applications were
denied, twenty-five passed for further
investigation and consideration by
the board conditional pardons were
granted to fourteen applicants, prac-
tically all of whom had already served
the larger part of the sentences i'm
posed upon them, and whose applica-
tions were strongly endorsed and
presented commencing features.
Three sentences were committed or
reduced in cases where strong show
ings were made.
In addition to the foregoing a con-
siderable number of applications for
clemency were brought to the boards
attention, but were not passed upon
for the reason that the requirements
of law with respect to making appli-
cations for pardon had not been COM
piled with.

A WARNING

To the Editor Ocala Banner:
If the business men of Ocala have
no more business sagacity and fore
sight than to turn down the PROPOSE
ton made to them by Mr.. C. Carmi-
chael, they will awake some fine morn
ing to find the erection of some big
Wholesale houses at Silver Springs,
and this will bring on more talk.
With freight rates only half as
much from Jacksonville as they are
to Ocala, the owners of these houses
will be in position to undersell our
Ocala merchants, and they will be
compelled to bid a long farewell to
anything like doing wholesale bust
ness in Ocala any more.
Can nothing awake the business
men of Ocala to action?
Shall we wait until we are bound
hand and foot? Have we no Patrick
Henry's left to arouse us to our re-
sponsibilities and our sense of duty
Take heed. Opportunity knocks
but once. -
A WARNING.

A STRONG SERMON

Taking as his theme the attitude Of
Christ toward the customs and relig-
ious institutions of His time, Rev. Roy
B. Bowers, preached, perhaps, the
most interesting sermon of his career
at the Christian church last Sunday.
Rev. Bowers declared that Christ
said, in effect: 81 reject your iron
bound customs, your out-worn insti-
tutions and your priestcraft and rec
ognize no power, no authority, but
that of my Heavenly Father"
The Jews of the poorer classes
were weary and heavy laden with
the triple burden of obeying rigid
customs, supporting an hypocritical
priestcraft and yielding up tribute to
the Roman Empire. Long obedience
to church customs and ceremonials
and high respect for the priests had
made church customs and the priest
craft rulers over the people instead
of being instruments and servants of
God and the people"
Instances were quoted where the
scribes and pharasees attempted to
inveigle Christ into the breaking
some custom or law, that He might
be treated as a criminal. They
brought Him on a Sabbath into the
Temple, where there was man with
a withered arm, asking Him IL IL were
lawful to heal the sick on the Sab
bath. And Christ confounded them
with counter question: what man
among you having sheep TO fall into
a pit on the Sabbath, will not straight
way go and lift him out? How much
more valuable, then, is the life of a
man than that of sheep?" And he
commanded the afflicted man to
stretch out his withered arm, and II
was made whole.
He dwelt on the fact that the Sab
bath was made for man, and not man
for the Sabbath; that Christ's coming
was to free man from useless cere-
monials, enlarge his vision and in
crease his usefulness on earth.
Rev. Bowers drew a strong compar-
ison between this attitude of Christ
and the attitude of socalled Chris
tians of today. rs not a sheep" he
asked, considered more valuable
than man today? 1t certainly seems
SOL
He then quoted an instance OF an

SUGAR HAMMOCK = REVELATION

Mr.. George H. Walker. a representa-
tive of the Southern Settlement and
Development Company, was sent here
to make a personal inspection of the
Sugar Hammock property. and returns
bearing the most extravagant account
of it.
Mr.. David s. Woodrow says that
Mr.. Walker stated that the lands
were a perfect revelation to him. and
nothing that he can say could be too
extravagant.
There may be lands in Florida as
good, but there are none better.

In all the years of the past Ocala
has failed to use the Oklawaha river
and Silver Springs as assets; she has
now awakened to the fact that her
greatest prosperity lies in that direc-
ton and movements are rapidly crys-
TALKING and taking shape that will
largely augment Ocala's future COM
mercial life.
A Carnegie Librarys
Ocala will soon begin the erection
of a Carnegie library. The plans
were drawn by Merton M. Mann, of
Boston, an Ocala boy, and they are
said by connoisseurs in this lie to
be very beautiful.
Amusements.
Another attraction that is one of
Ocala's big assets is her fine theater.
The very finest motion pictures and
the orchestra maintained by the Tenn
pie is said by the travelling public to
be the best in the state. During the
winter season a number of good
theatrical attractions supplement the
photo plays.
Four Banks
Ocala also has three splendid
banks that are in flourishing condi-
ton (and one negro bank mentioned
elsewhere). During the past year the
Commercial bank has been entirely re-
modelled and is now very handsome
bank
Union Depot
The railroad commission a few
weeks ago ordered the erection of an
union depot for Ocala, work on same
to be started not later than next No
vember. Ocala now has a splendid
railroad schedule that is great con-
venience to the travelling public. On
account of her schedules Ocala is the
most desirable place in the interior of
Florida for the travelling mems head
quarters and many are taking advan-
tage of this fact to make this city
their home.
Marion county is already noted all
over the state for her good roads and
nothing has advertised her better
than this important fact.
Paradise for Sportsmen
For the tourists and sportsman
Ocala and Marion county can not be
equaled. The hunting is par excellent,
game being plentiful and the fishing
ing the Ocklawaha, the Withlacoochee
and her other streams and lakes
makes our county paradise for en-
thusiastic disciples of the famous
Walton.
Looking Toward the Future
Ocala's prospects are very bright
along nearly all lines and her citizens
are very hopeful of its future.
Other developers who are now do
ing much to put Ocala on the map are
L. R. Chazal and Sons, who have just
opened up beautiful subdivision to
Ocala known as Wyomina Park. 1t
is located on the Silver Springs hard
road and is beautiful property and
Chazal & Sons are identifying it most
extensively.
A little further east on the same
road, e. L. Wartmann, of Citra, has
opened up another subdivision. He is
doing great deal of work on this
property and it is adding much to the
beauty and value of that section of
the city.

Religious Revival Movement

During the last month there has

vival, particularly among the Sunday
schools. A few weeks ago there were
considerably over one thousand at
tending them. This enthusiasm is en-
tirely a. homegrown product and was
not worked up by outside evangelists.
