Florida Federation Given the Royal
Palm Park

At a late winter meeting of the
Ocala Woman's Club an interesting
description of the Royal Palm park,
near Miami, was given by member.
That afternoon many club women
heard for the first time that the val
liable tract would most likely become
property of the Florida Federation,
and since then any mention Of the
park has been an item of absorbing
interest to the members, all of whom
will rejoice over the fact that the
House of Representatives has passed
measure to grant to the federation
the land comprising the park and
providing funds for identifying it
and for its maintenance.

Informal rarity for Visitor

Mrs. Sanford Jewett of Lakeland,
who is being warmly welcomed dur
ing her visit to Ocala, her former
home, was the inspiration for a de-
lightful party this afternoon when
Miss Meta Jewett entertained in her
honor, her guests including only
neighbors and a few other special
friends. A tempting refreshment
course was served during the after
noon which was pleasantly spent in a
most informal manner.
Mrs. w. T. Gary and children and
mother, Mrs. w. F. Yocum of Talla-
hassee, will leave tomorrow for Day
tona Beach, where they have taken a
cottage until the first of August.

brief stay.

to the hospital this morning and
operated on for appendicitis. The OPP

the best wishes of her schoolmates
and other friends for a rapid recov-
cry.
Miss Alice Bullock, who has been
in Richmond representing the Flor
ida Division, S. C. ", as sponsor, at

White Springs to visit her uncle, Mr..

are among the most popular of

new happiness have the congratula-
tions of friends.

lovely visitors. Among them were
excellent ikenesses of Misses Alice

Florida representatives, shown many
social courtesies. Rain and windy
