ably conducted by the messengers pre-
sided over by George w. Scofeld,
who was honored by reelection as
moderator. The associational sermon
preached by Rev. Stephens from the
theme "The Inner VS.. the Outer Man,
Spirituality VS.. Materialism," set the
keynote for the meeting and was pro-
nounced by many the best sermon ever
preached before the association. Rev.
J. r. Graham of Inverness, also de-
livered d great message in his sermon
on Thursday evening, and in his report
on education.
Two new ministers were welcomed
into the association, Rev. Strickland,
who will fill the position of associa-
tional missionary, and DR.. Moncrief,
from South Carolina, who has taken
charge as pastor at Micanopy, McIn-
tosh and Pennington. AS host of the
association DR.. Moncrief was the soul
Of hospitality and courtesy and in his
speeches on various subjects under dis
cussion made fine impression.
The woman's meeting was the best
ir the history of the work. The at
tendance of delegates enrolled los, be-
side many visitors. The total gifts
for the year amounted to S1005.40.
The women divide their monies be-
tween the twenty benevolencies of
the Woman's Missionary Union of the
South, the largest gifts being to state
missions and the orphans home.
Mrs. E. Van Hood, who has been
associationa1 superintendent for five
years, was radiant with joy over the
wonderful development and consecra-
ton of the women. Mrs. Hood is
ably assisted In the conduct of the
work by Mrs. J. T. Christian of Nc
Intosh, assistant superintendent, and
Mrs. J. T. Rawls of Dunnellon, secre
tary. There are now twenty w. M.
unions in the association, three hav-
ing been organized during the past
year.
Mrs. w. A. Coin, superintendent of
the Young Woman's Auxiliary, made
splendid report of her branch of
work. The papers read and the adj
dresses made by the women were ex-
ceptional1y fine. 1t is wonderful to
hear the f1uency, the clearness and the
beauty of expression that the women
have developed. Mrs. FL. G. Peelman,
state secretary of women's work, was
present and gave many valuable sug-
gestions for future use. To tell of
the whole-hearted hospitality OF the
Pennington community language is
inadequate. The good women led by
Mrs. NJ. C. Gray, whose hospitable
heart has no boundary line, did them
selves proud in spreading a feast fit
for royalty. There was no suggestion
of poverty nor want in all the world
in that board heavily laden with all
the good things that could be men,
toned and it was hard to resist any

The Greek Lady Of the Venus
Statue Could Never Have Batted
1000 as q Beauty II She Had
Worn French Heels.
Look at your little plaster
model of the Venue de Milo or
wonderful figure, and ask your
self If the Greek woman who
posed 1890 years ago for the
statue ever wore high heels.
Anyone who would acquire a
good figure must consider the
foundation, the feet.
During the day your feet are
the most active parts of your
body, and usually have the least
thought and time devoted to their
comfort.
If most girls gave Opo-
third the time to their feet
they do to their faces, their
whole appearance would be
greatly improved.
/, Present-day shoes, with high
heels and pointed toes, are I'M
natural creations, harmful not
only to the feet, but to the health
of the whole body.
If the Venus lady walked about
in such shoes as nine-tenths OF
the women today wear, she could
not have retained her beautiful
| figure.
In a short time she would have
suffered from broken arches and
nervous troubles, and there would
have been a terrible slump not
only In the figure, but in the av-
erage of this woman, who for
1900 years has batted 1000 as
a beauty.
You can learn what the human
feet mean to the human system
by studying your own and those
of baby.
The place across the baby's
toes is the broadcast part Of the
1901. len 10 one, the space
across your toes is not.
The advantage of the compari-
SON Is all in the baby's favor. The
baby's toes are as nature plans
everybody's toes.
Mother Nature wants the
toes to take an important
part I'm the balancing Of the
human body.
But Dame Fashion says
we must bunch the toes up
into a poi .ted mass and prop
the heels up on pieces OF
leather two or three inches
| high.
And most OF us do what Dame
Fashion says.
