Legionaires Honor Two Ocaia
Women.
Saturday Ocala was indeed feeling
exceedingly proud of herself. The
cause of this unusual elation was the
news that was received in our city at
an early hour on that day, of the cleo
ton of two of our most prominent
ladies to fill state Offices in the auxil-
iary of the American Legion.
Mrs. Harry Dozier was elected to
the very highest Office that can be
held in this organization, that of pres
ident Mrs. Dozier is in every way
fitted to fill this high office. She al
ways presides with great deal of
ease of manner and has a happy
faculty of winning for herself and
her cause many friends. Besides
these qualities, she is an untiring
worker in everything she undertakes.
Under her able leadership the work
of the auxiliary will not lag
Mrs. p G. Murphy, who has al
ready filled the office as state treasur-
er, was reelected to succeed herself,
which in itself is a compliment. She,
too, is a worker of the "A No One"
class.
Ocala is certainly proud OF these two
honors bestowed upon her at the re-
cent meeting held in Palm Beach, and
feels sure that these two officers will
be well taken care of.
From Palm Beach, Mrs Murphy,
in company with Mrs. Wade Dumas,
and her mother, Mrs Charles Dumas,
went on to Miami and other cities
of interest Mrs. Dozier, in company
with Chief Commander Handford Nc

her friends, upon the recent honor be-
slowed upon her.
