Wednesday Concert at the Woman's
Club Delightful Event

OAGO S(d8Htt0t 6WWnh
One of the very pleasantest of the
social affairs ever given by any of the
committees of the woman's club was
the musical tea on Wednesday after
noon which was given by the health
Mrs. H. c.. Dozier, chair
man. This tea was given for the
benefit of the clubs memorial avenue
and park and over twenty dollars was
netted from this event.
The first number on the program
was a solo by Miss Music Bullock,
who on this occasion added to the
Iaurels she has already won in OcaIa
by her sweet singing. Following Miss
BulIock's solo Mrs. Philip G. Murphy
sang a solo. This was her first APP
pearance in Ocala, and those who
heard her on Wednesday hope very
soon that they may again have the
opportunity to listen to her. Mrs.
Murphy has just recently moved to
OcaIa. She has an exceedingly sweet
voice, and she is quite an
to the musical circles Of
Ocala.
Mrs. L. G. Ketchum, who on many
previous occasions has sung at the
club. again gave of her talents for this
rendering sweet solo with
auto harp accompaniment, and also
singing a duet, Annie Laurie" with
Mrs. Murphy.
Miss Bullock ad Mrs. Murphy sang
a duet, their voices harmonizing most
perfectly.
The last number on the program
were several songs and dances by lit
tie Lucie Johnson of Palatka. This
dainty little tot in her pink frock and
hat was too adorable for words. and
just to look at her was treat, and
when she sang her little songs in her
clear, childish voice and in a most de-
mure and unconscious manner, the au-
diece simply wanted to pick her up
and kiss her.
After the musical numbers the
health committee served the most de-
licious of sandwiches and hot tea, and
many of the ladies remained and en-
joyed game of auction, and others

Several gentlemen were present to
enjoy this tea. and the members of
the club hope for larger number Of
gentlemen at their next silver tea.
Delightful "At Home" at BeIIeview
One of the most enjoyable and best
ordered of the many events which
have marked the long and useful life
Of the Belleview Workers took the
form of an "At Home" in the Bush
Memorial Library. Belleview, Thurs
day afternoon, March 4.
That coy little stone structure was
beflowered for the occasion with ros-
es. yellow jessamine and peach and
pear blossoms in sufficient quantities
to remind the folks from the frozen
north land this winter that terms ap-
plies more fifty than ever before, SO
continuous and sever have been the
snow and ice), that Florida really is
4 Land of Flowers" and there was
Just enough of formal program not
to be boring. 1t was made up of a
tuneful song by Mrs Earl Davenport.
d reading by Miss Powers, a recitation
by little Miss Van Horn, and reminis-
cences by Mrs Bush, widow of the
-cnor of the library These reminis-
cences, read from old prints of TWEEN
ty years and more ago, brought smiles
to many and served to show how
has progressed, also how
the Belleview Workers have served
the community and added to its well
fare in their more than thirty years
existence.
For instance, not everyone knows,
and other have forgotten that the
town hall was almost completely fur
nished by the public spirited ladies
who compose the Workers. and that
without these furnishings few of the
many social events which occur in the
hall would be possible.

nit the Workers to give further evi-
dence of their thoughtful and helpful
spirit by forwarding generous help
ing of the dainties to each OF the
sick beds in Belleview.
