MISS MARIAN RIvEs VICTIM OF
AUTO ACCIDENT.
Others Slightly Injured

Only few friends knew on Sunday
that Miss Marian Rives, had been in
an auto accident near High Springs
late Saturday afternoon, so when on
Monday morning the news was scat
tered that she had been claimed by
death. they were greatly shocked and
grieved.
Many hearts were made sad, for dur
ing the short time she had made this
place her home, she had made, by
her cordial manners, many friends.
She had been staying in the office
OF Drs. Dozier, Walters and Lindner
and only resigned last week to go te
Gainesville to stand the teachers
examination, as she expected to teach
this coming year at Dunnellon. She
always had a smile, for those who
called at the Office and these patients
will sadly miss her.
She was spending the weekend
at Alachua, with her brother. When the
accident occurred, she was riding
with Mrs. McCrayen and little child
and Mr.. Aubrey Logan. The car was
going at a high rate of speed, and
when attempting to pass a truck, the
driver lost control. The car turned
over. No one was seriously hurt ex'
cept Miss Rives, who sustained q
broken neck, shoulder and arm. She
was rushed to the hospital and every
thing possible was done for her. DR..
Dozier and DIR. Walters spent Sunday
in High Springs vainly trying to do
something for the injured girl. She
died shortly after seven o'clock Sun
day night.
With her when death came were
her mother and three sisters, Misses
Dixie, Mary and Ethel Rives, of Ocala
who left by auto on Saturday night to
be with her.
Marian Rives was barely eighteen,
she had a very happy and sunny
manner, and she has left radiance and
sunshine behind to brighten the
dark pathway of her relatives and
friends. She will be greatly missed
by all who knew her, who offer to
the grief stricken family their sim
cere sympathy.
The funeral took place in Alachua
on Tuesday afternoon. at four o'clock,
and never has there been such large
funeral of sorrowing friends.
The flowers, all bright and pretty
just like the bright and pretty girl
entirely hid the grave from view

ed Finish Steer movement. The
reports of officers and reports of COM
mittees also took up portion of this
mornings session
In his address President Shepard
stated the purposes of the Farmers
Union. They are ITO discourage the
credit and mortgage system, he said.
ITO assist our members in buying
and selling, to educate the agricultural
classes in scientific farming, to teach
farmers the classification of crops,
domestic economy and the process of
marketing, to systematic methods
of production and distribution, to
bring farming up to the STANDARD of
other industries and business enter
prises.''
President Shepard struck the key
note of his address when he said:
Equal rights for all and special privi-
lodges to none will bring peace and
happiness to the homes Of American
agriculture"
Miss Carey in her splendid adj
dress. pointed out that the meat and
dairy products, every ounce of which
could be produced in the state. There
has been prejudice against Florida
beef 1t has BEEN absolutely proven
by many a farmer and progressive cat
tie man that Florida beef, finished in
Florida, is the sweetest and most
delicious meat ever served in our
markets. Miss Carey says, but the de-
mand for Florida meat is so small
that it does not pay the farmer to
finish more than few choice animals
here and there. Yet the whole stu
alton can be changed in less than ten
months she says. if every man and
woman in the state would come to-
gether and agree to create a market
for we'll finished Florida beef. Miss
Carey's plan is to have a fenced
ranch in every county where range
steers can be finished properly,
slaughtered under board Of health
inspection in sanitary abatoir and
sold in the local markets or for ex-
port. To get this plan under way
Miss Carey is Organizing a demonstra-
ton herd on her ranch near Miami.
She is asking leading organizations
and prominent men and women
throughout the state to buy steer
at SIS. @The steers will be finished
and marketed by her and each pur-
chaser viii get his or her SIS back
plus fifty per cent Of the profits Of
the sale.
Miss Carey's plan is meeting with
approval wherever she has been in the
state. She will be in Ocala for !
day or two mad hopes to have a num-
Der OF steers purchased here.
