FORMER
RESIDENT OF MT. VERNON HAS
PROMINENT PART
In May Festivities at Deland, Fla
q Martha Sanderson Crown-Bearer
to Queen-AIso Executes
lnterpretative Dance

The following, from the society col |
umn of the Sunday Columbus Dis |
patch, will prove of interest to Mt. |
Vernon people, concerning as it does.
a former resident Of this city: !
A Columbus girl, Miss Martha San.
derson, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Herbert e. Sanderson, 23S West
Tenth avenue, served as crown-bearer
to Miss Marie Albritton, queen of the
May festival at Stetson university.
Deland, Fla, last Monday. The San
derson family each year spends the
winter months and part of the spring
in Florida.
The scene of the festival was on
the campus amid the towering pines.
The ground was carpeted with the
multi-colored phlox and in the center
lowered the May pole with its ribbons
of green and white. On the east
| side we're attractive booths covered
with bamboo, green boughs, Spanish
moss and bedecked with flowers. At
the extreme south end stood the
der a canopy of green, with exquisite
white flowers lavishly used through
out. On the west side near the boule
ward was placed piano, Miss Laura
belle Pinkerton playing the accom-
paniments for the songs and dances.
Benches and chairs we're placed on
the north side for the spectators.
The first number WAS a march by
the girls of Stetson academy, who had
sashes of vivid orange and blue over
their white dresses. After they had
taken their places along the side line,
the royal party appeared. The May
queen was arrayed in white and Miss
Sanderson was dressed in floating
robes of palest pink. Miss Hazel Fisk
as the train-bearer, was dressed in g
fluffy gown of white spangled with
silver. Flower girls we're little Miss
and the ladies in waiting were Misses
Nellie Stevens, Vashti Richardson
' Mary Hulley and Mildred Johnson.
The queen ascended her throne ant
received the crown from Miss Fisk,
who then sang with excellent effect
G MAY Morning" This was followe,
v by an interpretative dance by Mis-
T, Martha Sanderson which was charm
ingly and gracefully rendered. Twer
ty-two college girls dressed in flowin
Grecian robes of white with thei
hair bound in classic style with whit
ribbons, floated in on the scene, bow
ed to the queen, and then executed
g most beautiful and fairylike aestheti
dance around the May pole.
Miss Chase danced the Butterfl
dance, delighting the audience wit
s. her grace and deXterity. Then cam
the May pole dance by the 22 girl
and number of beautiful steps wer
gone through. The festival met wit
the entire appreciation of the in
mense crowd present.

PRESIDENTS OF PEACE

The chief characteristic OF all the
really great presidents of the United
States has been patience. eliminating
in quick, decisive action when pa
tience ceases to be virtue.
None of the really great presidents
wanted war, or tried to arouse the
people to a warlike mood.
On the contrary, they exhibited
patience under the most trying cir
cumstances, counseling peace and toll
GRAFTON until the time came when
peace was no longer compatible with
the national honor.
Washington tried to avoid the rev
olution, but circumstances finally
made no other course possible.
Lincoln tried to avoid the Civil war.
Mckinley tried to avoid the war
with Spain.
These presidents were men OF
peace. They we're not agitators
Their voices were not heard in the
market places, sounding the call OF
battle. They symbolized the nations
love Of peace; yet when circumstanc
es forced the issue, they did not
shirk responsibility.
President Wilson, too, Is man Of
peace 'Valor," said the president in
his speech to the Gridiron club, in
February, 1916, Is seif-respecting
Valor is circumspect. Walor strikes
only when it is right 20 strike. Valol
withholds itself from all small impli
cations and entanglements and waits
for the great opportunity when the
sword will flash as if it carried the
light of heaven upon its blade"

A resident of Homer said good

and deposited $3.50 in the treasury.
His offense was that when he came
to Mt. Vernon Saturday he forgot his
failing and drank too heavily, with
tho result that when officer Taylor
found him Saturday night on East
Water street, he lay on the sidewalk
as quietly as only mummy can.
Three other plain ones faced the
