OPPORTUNITY IS
 SUBJECT OF SERMON
 BY REV. BARNWELL
Commencement at Monte vallO Is Featured With Many Happy Events
 Among Students

Montevallo, May 2S.-(Special.)-At the Sunday morning service the Rev. Middle ton s. BarnwelI, of the Church of the Ad- vent. delivered the baccalaureate sermon on the general subject of opportunity" and took for his text thei story of the man who sat outside the beautiful gate of the temple for forty years before he learned that with Gods help he could enter in.
 He then pointed out in a vivid manner the paths that open before the young men and young women of this country, and showed that there is nothing impos- sible for them with the Lord as their helper The passers by had for forty years been casting aims to the cripple and not daring to try to do anything to heal him, but were content to keep him satisfied in his crippled condition. From that he passed to the evils of
 the present time. and showed that no temporal or worldly expedients suffice to guide the world inside the beautiful gate and peace and prosperity; that only by doing the seemingly impossible; only by bringing the power of God to bear on the life that life can ever be anything but a struggle-and awaiting outside the temple of happiness which God would have h. enter.

CANNON .REPUDIATED CATS

If that story Cats told of his
agreement with "Uncle Joe" Cannon
had been true, it would have been a
shameful one for a democrat to tell,
and that it is untrue is another rea-
son for distressing Cats sanity as
well as his veracity. A special from
Washington to the Tampa Tribune
says:
Uncle Joe Cannon, the veteran Illi-
nois congressman today emphatically
knocked into a cooked hat the allega-
tons of Gov. S. J. Cats of Florida,
made a short time ago at st. Angus
tine, that he and Mr.. Cannon had en-
tered into a reciprocal agreement
regarding national legislation, should
the former be elected to the Senate of
the United States"
In his speech Governor Cats re-
ferred to Mr.. Cannon as being one OF
the most influential republicans in
Congress and emphasized the state
ment that the alleged agreement en-
tered into between them for the
handling of congressional business
had already received the sanction of
"Uncle Joe.'
Asked today regarding the matter
Mr.. Cannon said:
81 have no recollection of ever
meeting Mr.. Cats, the governor OF
Florida. But the alleged reciprocal
agreement which he said he has with
me is so absurd as to be a stale joke
l have no understanding with any
real or prospective senator with re-
gard to any reciprocal agreement"
Washingtonians today were dis
cussing the governors statements
with interest, when it became known
that the whole thing was either a
dream or a joke on the part of Gov
ernor Cats. They also were discuss

he had been offeerd $4,000 in cash

BOARD OF TRADE NOTES

Watch Ocala grow! Not in many
in this city as there is at present. In
the business district new buildings
are planned. Handsome residences
are being built and are planned. All
of this is an expression of great con-
fidence in the future. The bank de-
pOsits are the largest in the city's
history. Nothing but national or
world calamity can prevent the
growth of Ocala.
The state Of Florida has a wonder
full future before it. In agriculture
alone a remarkable development is
ahead of US. The record of the past
year is evidence of it. Ocala is locat-
ed centrally in this great state, and
has one of the richest back countries
in Florida. Ocala is the center of a
section that has rich agricultural
lands, minerals and forests. 1t is
making wonderful strides in live

Gerful climate. The county has wealth
in its citrus industry and vegetables,
but does not ned to depend on them.
Ocala need never again suffer the
blow of 1895. In that year the citrus
industry was practically wiped out.
But the growers who had faith have
since proved that protection is not so
much a matter of latitude as of alti-
tude, water and windbreaks, and the
citrus industry of Marion county is
facing a marked pickup.
Il is true that resources of them
selves do not build cities. Men build
cities. But the people of Ocala and

That traffic marker we referred to
the other day, at the corner of North
Main and Washington streets, is at
the corner no longer. It has started
down Washington street, and at its
present rate will be in front of the
postoffice by the end of the week.
Coming up from the union station the
other day we noticed the marker at
North Magnolia and Adams had wan
dered over into the western side of
the street, evidently going to ask the
price of room at the Wisteria. At
that time autoes coming up to the
square had to make a baseball curve
to get by it. One of them may have
knocked it back into the center by
this time. Why doesn't the street de-
partment watch these markers and
keep them in place? They are not only
a nuisance but dangerous when they
get out of place. P. S.-They have
been put right.

TO FRIENDS OF
THE NATIONAL GAME

Do you favor having baseball in
Ocala this summer? If so, be at the
meeting of the Board of Trade tomor-
row night at 8 o'clock. Mr.. c. W
Hunter states that it will take no
great amount of expense to finance
the baseball club. There are only q
few minor repairs needed at Hunter
Park and they will not cost much. Mr.
Hunters idea is that baseball team
should pay for itself, and that il
should be financed through the sale
OF season tickets. If you have some
ideas of your own along this line be
on hand tomorrow night.
