President Wilson was admitted down

made by the second liberty loan cam

terday, he is in much better spirits
and believes that the people of the
country will make up during the last
two days before the loan closes, for
all of the seeming indifference shown
prior to yesterday. The whole weight
of the administration is to be thrown
into the race for the final two-day
drive.

met early yesterday morning in Post

Mrs. Edward Badger widow of the
late Col. Edward Badger, of the 4th
Florida regiment of the Civil war,
placed on the fire a fagot from the
famous old oak tree that stood for so
many years on our public square 1t
was under this tree that the people of
this city presented. handsome silk
confederate flag to the Fourth Florida,
which was presented to the regiment
in a beautiful speech by Miss Jeffie

Ben Bell, Misses Jefferson and Daisy
Bell and Mrs. George Blitch.)
Mrs. Green, daughter of Mrs. Bad
ger, at the same time placed fagot
on the fire representing a bond pur-
chased for her by her son, Corp.
Green through his regiment in Wash
ington.
i Fagots were laid On The fire by the
people of the city, who have already
purchased liberty bonds and many
others put on a fagot thereby testify
ing that they expect to purchase one
or more bonds during the present
week
Miss Agnes Burford and Miss Blair
Woodrow representing the Red Cross,
one of the most potent factors in this
war, laid on fagots for this organiza-
tin. They wore a Red Cross costume
and furnished great deal. towards
the beauty of the occasion.
The High School was represented
and while the fagots were being plac-
ed on the bond fire a chorus sang,
very sweetly the beautiful song, Keep
the Home Fires Burning" Miss Mar
guerite Porter directed the singing.
Mr. Donald E. McIver, a member
of the Liberty bond committee made
a .strong speech which aroused a
great deal of enthusiasm and patriotic
shouting and no doubt helped to sell
a big bunch of bonds.
The patriotic meeting closed with
ia splendid and altogether pleasing
speech from Mr.. Raiford Simmons,
one of our new citizens He is big
purchaser of bonds and is going to
show his loyalty by still larger pur-
chase in order to boost Ocala. which
he is learning to love so well.
After Mr.. Simmons speech, which
was entirely impromptu. the chorus
led by Miss Porter sang, Keep the
Home Fires Burning"
Mrs. William Hooker, chairman of
the woman's liberty loan committee
for Marion county and state chairman
of the Woman's committee Council of
National Defense, was in charge of
the program and a great deal of the
credit of this celebration is due her
for it was she who planned the pro-
gram and did everything possible in
carrying it out successfully. She was
very ably assisted by Mrs. w. r.
Gary, president of the Ocala Woman's
club.
1t can well be said that Ocala never
does anything by halves and she quite
surpassed herself in her Liberty

at Hampton institute for the general

sang the bass solos in the elijah"

DIR. Dawson teaches in Harvard uni
versity, leads a choir of forty men and
is chairman Of the musical advisory
board of Boston.
DIR. Dawson said: There Is great
tendency in education not to take
music as seriously as mathematics and
other studies. The benefits Of musical
instruction are quite as great as those
derived from other studies. Mere sing
ing or playing does not constitute mu-
steamship. 1t is necessary to learn the
fundamentals q I'd to acquire the mean-
ing of things. TO have musical intelli,
gence one must begin at the begin
ming.
81 have been greatly impressed with
the singing and music at Hampton in
stitute. The devotion to music is very
strong. I wish to congratulate you on
your music teaching. The plantation
singing is very good. 1t corresponds
with the folk singing Of France and
England. You have the basis for going
forward. All music is derived from the
folk songs. Learn all there is to sing
and to play"
