WILDCATS WILL PLAY
WITH JACKSONVILLE

The Wildcats, Ocala's crack bas-
ketball team, have arranged for two
games with Jacksonville in the next
two months. The first game will be
in Ocala Jan. 29, and the second in
Jacksonville Feb. 26. If only one
game goes to each team, a date for a
deciding game will be made later.
On account of the long trip and
heavy expense of bringing the jack
sonville team here, and the usually
small Ocala crowds, the Wildcats feel
it will be necessary for them to
charge so and 25 cents admission to
the game. The Star hopes our people
will turn out in number and help
swell the receipts. The Wildcats are
making splendid record this season
and deserve all the credit our people
can give them.

HOLIDAY TRADE

Ocala did good business all the
week, particularly on the 23rd and
Oath. On those days the streets were
lively, and at some hours they were
crowded. Many people came in on
the trains, and many more in autoes,
buggies and carriages.
At 9 o'clock Friday night, Star
reporter made the rounds of the bus
mess center. He found all the stores
either crowded, or with the clerks
resting between rushes, for trade gen.
orally goes in batches-a store will
be crowded one minute, half full or
empty the next and crowded again the
next. The merchants all said that
trade was good. 1t wasn't as good,
of course, as in the times when phos-
phate mines and turpentine farms
were running full time, but it was
good, nevertheless.

CIVIC CHRISTMAS
TREE A SUCCESS
CHILDREN AND OLDER FOLKS
TURNED OUT BY HUNDREDS
TO MEET SANTA CLAUS

Ocala scored another public sue
cess Christmas Eve night in the civic
Christmas tree celebration.
BY 1880 p. m, the northeast quar-
ter of the public square was throng-
ed with children out for good time,
and older folks to enjoy themselves
in seeing the children happy.
The Christmas tree, a husky young
pine, stood right at the southeast
corner of the courthouse square. 1t
was firmly moored in place by strong
guys, that gave it balancing pulls
from several directions. 1t was strung
with electric wires, and at the proper
moment the current was turned on,
causing scores of tiny red and blue
bulbs to gleam in the foliage, while
above all flashed out big, bright
Star of Bethlehem, below which shone
the word Love" in radiant letters.
Fixing the tree in place and ar
ranging the electric display was the
work of Mr.. Caldwell, superintendent
of the city plant, an adept in cleo
tricity and an enthusiast in anything
that will make children happy.
Led by their fairy godmother,
Mrs. Charles Wesley Hunter, the chill
dren were grouped around the tree,
while choir of many young voices,
accompanied by Miss Mary Gates
with piano set at the Ocala House
corner, rendered several appropriate
pieces of music. Suddenly, coming
from the north, in cleaning auto,
Santa Claus appeared among his vo-
taries. He was a lively and benevol-
ent old boy, and was very real indeed
to all the children who happily be-
lieve in the beneficient legend.
St. Nick made pleasant and elo-
quent speech, after which the COM
mittee appointed to help him rapidly
emptied the auto of the packages
with which it was heaped high. Not
withstanding the hundreds present,
there was enough and to spare.
The presents distributed, Santa
waved his hand, and in his uptodate,
gasoline sleigh on wheels, flashed
away to make other children happy
all over this broad land, the only
great nation except China to be at
peace on Christmas, 1915. Immed-
lately after the crowds dispersed. 1t
took lot of work to make the event
a success, and the hands for the un-
dertaking were rather too few. But
all who helped may rejoice themselves
in the remembrance that they made
Christmas more real for many chill
dren than they could have by any
other method.

ALL DEPENDED ON
A BLIND AMERICAN
Nobody Else to Take Charge of
Panic-Stricken Nish
ASSOCIATED Press)

New York, Dec. 25.-Douglass NJ.
Dold, an American surrendered Nish,
Serbia, to the Bulgarians after the
Serbians had retreated, according to
the story he told upon arriving here
after spending several months in Ser
bia Dold and his brother, Donald,
left here in June as members of an
automobile squad sent to aid the Ser
bians. Douglass Dold, who was in
charge of the expedition, was stricken
blind at Nish as the result of hard
ships, over-work and privations-
Douglass said that when he realized
Nish would be captured, one Serbian
regiment mutinied, killed it's colonel
and looted houses. After this regi-
ment left, the Bishop of Nish was
asked by the people to induce Dold
tt surrender the city. He agreed, and
met the Bulgarians. They protected
the city and stores until the Germans
arrived. The Germans were worse
than the Serbians about looting, he
said.
