10 feel within our hearts the ioy of
living,
10 have purpose true in every
deed,
To know that to the world our best
we're giving
Without thought of recompense
or NEED;
To see the beauty of the passing
days,
To thrill with gladness in each
bright new dawn,
10 near IN nature all her songs of
praise
Before her gladstone notes are past
and gone;
10 fear not death; with faith to dare
and do;
To conquer every i'll and grief ana
strife;
To live. This is our quest, and this
the answer true,
IF we will come to Me, We may
have life" Selected.
Conservation Day at the Woman's
Club
The regular meeting of the Wom-
ans Club was held Saturday after
noon at the club house, Mrs William
Hooker, acting president, in the chair.
The meeting which was in charge of
the combined committees on parks
and driveways, was opened by sing
ing America, followed by a moment
of silent prayer. A business meeting
preceded an illustrated lecture by DIR.
h. J. Weihe, who during the few
minutes in which he spoke made a
splendid practical talk, taking for his
subject, "Conservation of the Eyes,
and impressed conservation as ma
tional slogan. A quartet from the
Ocaal High School Glee Club, COM
posed of Misses Sara Dehon, Cevie
Roberts, Mabel Lyle and Marguerite
Edwards, with Miss Marguerite Por-
ter as accompanist, gave two delight
full numbers, with a folk dancing in
novation which was most pleasing.
Mrs. L. w. Duval read an interest
ing and instructive paper on conser-
walton, giving many splendid ideas
which we regret our space will not
allow us to reproduce.
A splendid original paper prepared
by the local food administration
was then read. Mrs. Chas. H. Lloyd,
in her usual bright and interesting
manner, opened her remarks byI
saying that when Mrs. Maughs
asked Mr.. Camp to come to the club
and make speech, he fled out of the
door in terror, and said Mrs. Lloyd
would have to make the speech for
him. Mrs. Lloyd said that although
she was one of the incorporators of
the club, in all these years she had
never tried to make speech and
thought she was too old to embark
on a career of oratory now, but she
wanted to assure the club that while
Mr.. Camp was not speaker he was
undoubtedly doer, and while the war
was practically over, the need for
continuing our efforts is just as vital
now as when we were actually en-
gagged in fighting, for the coming
year is not to be an easy one for Am
erica. Mrs. Lloyd said that when the
country was asked to go on fifty
fifty wheat flour and substitute ra-
ton, Marion county agreed to go
without any wheat flour at all if nee
essary, and that Marion county had
used nearly one hundred per cent
substitutes to fifty per cent wheat
-four When we were on the two
pound sugar ration, the reports show
ed that our county did not quite use
IN pounds per capita. She thanked
the women of this county for making
possible these facts.
Mrs. Hooker was next on the pro-
gram with an instructive talk, bring
ing before the club matter Of spec
ial importance in regard to the re-
form school at Mariana, which SUBJ
ject will be taken up at the fedora
ton meeting. The following resolu-
tions were adopted by the Woman's
Club:
"Resolved, That the Woman's Club
of Ocala congratulates the press of
Florida on the splendid fight it is
making for the states unfortunate
boys at Mariana, and because we
realize that what is done should be
constructive and thorough from the
bottom up, and the inside out, we en-
dorse the editorial appearing in the
tampa lilies NOV. 1OCIl, 1910, eutitI-
ed, "A Suggestion for Reform at
Marianna,' as a working basis toward
a practical solution of this most i'm
portant matter.
Further be it resolved, That a
copy of these resolutions be furnish
ed our delegates to the state fedora
ton meeting at Daytona, with in
structions that they lend every eff
fort toward the adoption of these, or
other resolutions of the same import,
by that representative body of wom-
en-"
Mrs. Maughs, as chairman of drive
ways and parks, in her talk advised
all to get together and pull for the
park, and expressed herself as think
ing it advisable to adopt conservation
for all times.
Miss Gladys Martin, who is visiting
her relatives in the city for a few
days, delighted the audience with
her magnificent voice, Miss Irma
