place to stay. I walked over there and
looked as wise as could, because this
was the home Of a doctor. met Mn.
Ponder, who is indeed a refined cul-
tured young woman, but has a queenly
bearing. 1 thought that il was neees-
sary for her to know that / was i'm
portant and that had been to college,
50 I Just threw out a few jaw break
ers at her. Saying, DOctoratus, said
ibustus givertum merus a plaeitom to
staytoh." She looked at me for a few
minutes, and told me to come in, and
make myself at home, and the next
thing saw her with a Dictionary try

was impossible.
They have a lovely home, and il
would be of interest to you to know
that DIT. Ponder is one of the leading
physicians Of Florida, and he went over
in France to help to save all Europe
and America at the same time. He
answered the call of President Wood
row Wilson to cure the sick here and
went to help to whip the Huns and he
was successful, and now he is right
back on the job. That man can just
smile and cut you wide open and put
YOU together again, and do il with as
much ease and grace as he can sit
down and eat a good chicken dinner.
Well got my stopping place, and
was with good people, and enjoyed it
to the highest. 1 have met many
friends of Joseph S. McLane, and be-

Calanthe. She is an educated woman,
cultured and refined, but am not able
to tell you all the good that she is do
ing for herself and race, and am not
going to try this time. You must not
expect me to tell it all.
Col. W. W. Andrews is one of the
finest men i have ever met, and then
he is doing something for our people
am delighted to have had the pleas
ure of meeting him. 1 tell you they
have made it 50, that in this state If

Pythians. / don't blame them myself
Man should be a man, and we are now
at the place where we must make mel
and not things.
They have had great time here al
the week, and wish you could have
been here on the closing day wher
they had that big street parade, bands
