PREPARING FOR
THE INDUSTRIAL PARADE
1t Promises to be Even Better this
Year than 1t was Last

The industrial parade committee
held a meeting at the Board of Trade
room Monday afternoon for the pur-
pose of selecting a route over which
the parade would travel, and to fix
the date of the parade, and to go over
the list of names who have promised
to have floats in the parade.
A great deal of interest is being
manifested in the parade by the bus
iress men of Ocala and the surround
ing towns in the county, and about
forty floats will be decorated by Ocala
men and one from bennington, one
from Citra, one from Orange Springs,
Fort Mccoy, Summerfield and other
towns in the county will be in the par
ade.
It was decided that the parade
should be started on North Main
street between the postoffice and May
street and go from there to Oklawaha
avenue and out Oklawaha avenue tc
Hazel street, then on Hazel street tC
Fort King avenue, then down Fort
King to Main, on Main to Broadway
then out Broadway to fair grounds.
Ten o'clock Wednesday morning, No.
vember 10Th, was the time named fol
the parade to begin, and committee
was named to have charge of lining
up the parade.
A list of the persons and firms whc
will have floats in the parade will b.
published in the papers every day OF
two and it is hoped that every bust
ness enterprise in Ocala will be rep
resented in the parade as there viii
be great crowd here at the opening
of the fair and this is means of OBJ
tanning publicity for your business a
a very slight outlay. Decorations d.
not cost much and Collier brothers
have full supply for this occasion.

The unwilling ceremonies of the
monument of Mr.. C. D. Clough at the
Lakeland cemetery yesterday after
noon, conducted by Lakeland Camp
No. 70, Woodmen of the World, mark
ed an epoch in the history of Wood
craft.
Promptly at 2:30 large number
of members met at their hall, and
marched to the cemetery. At o'clock
the exercises began by a most beauti-
full and touching address delivered by
that grand master Woodman, C. III.
Dame. From literary standpoint, it
was gem, and from a Woodcraft
view, it embodies all that could be said
for the order, and there were many
tears mingled with the grand ap-
plause that greeted the speaker at his
conclusion.
Mr.. Dame, having made his home
among us, is fast gathering around
him many sincere friends, who es-
TEEN him more the longer they know
him, and he is doing fine work.
Miss Dame delivered in most
touching manner the beautiful poem
"Why Should the Spirit of Mortal be
Proud"
The exercises from the ritual were
carried out in a most creditable man
ner, and the Woodmen tender large
vote of thanks for the able assistance
of the Circle.

MAIDENS AND YOUNG MEN

Consider the young man. He goeth
forth in the Morning and bloweth
himself to Glad Raiment.
And the Pants they are two cubits
from the Ground.
He wrappeth his ankles in sox that
are white as the Lily and as near Silk
as the Bazaars will sell for one quar-
ter of Shekel.
Behold the Shirt. 1t hath Cuffs that
are Soft and that Turneth Back.
And his Necktie Shrieketh like unto
a 42-centimeter Shell.
And his gloves are of the skin of
the Chamois. Yellow are the Gloves
and the Stitching thereof is black.
And he is some Kid.
He weareth a lid of Fuzz and the
Bow thereof is cute and followeth on
behind.
Yea, he looketh like one thousand
shekels, but alas, all is not as it seem
eth.
For, behold, he meeteth at the
apothecary's a Maiden with Eyes like
the Gazelle and with Lashes of Mid
night. And the maiden pretendeth
that she hath but even now asked the
Clerk of the Fountain to mix her a
nut Sundae. But she will suffer the
young man to blow her off to one.
And behold, when the Sundaes are
gone the Way of all Things, the
Young Man tippeth the clerk wink
and passeth out gaily with the Maid
en-.
And the Clerk is on. He knoweth
that the young man is broke.
And will the Young Man slip the
Clerk the Twenty Pence? Yea, even
so, as soon as his fathers Pension
Check arriveth.
Consider the Maiden, Lo, though the
winds blow and Chilleth, she weareth
upon her feet Sandals that are low and
Hose that are silk.
And the neck of her gown existeth
not. Yet she sweareth that she is as
warm as toast.
She goeth forth into the Highways
and she carrieth Party Box.
And therein are many things where
with to Kalsomine her Countenance.
Puffs that are and many pigments,
white as the Lilies of Hebron and red
as the evening skies over Jordan.
She Maketh up where she isteth
and careth not who observeth.
And though her lips become as
Pomegranates, yet she denieth that
there is any color in the stuff.
With gaze of reproof she telleth
thee that it is as camphor ice and
that it tinteth not
And Behold! She putteth it over
upon thee.
She goeth forth at night and she
Tangoeth until the Dawn is on the
Mountains and the Morning Breeze
stirs the cedars, and she is not tired.
But when her Mother beggeth her
to go up into the maket place for a
cubit of calico, Loi she withereth
upon the vine.
Wonderous are the ways of maid
en.-Exchange.
