Automatically he hung the receiver on

BOAT RIDE AND PICNIC
ENJOYED BY MANY

At four o'clock yesterday a bright
sun greeted the gay crowd of pic
nickers which gathered at the club
rooms of the B. and P W. Club to en-
joy boat ride and picnic down Silver
Syringe run. Beside a number of
private automobiles. Taylor Brothers
big truck was used to convey the
crowd to the springs, where the swift
Silver Springs was in readiness to
take them down the river.
After all the goods things to eat
and the picnickers had been safely
slowed away on board the pleasure
boat started on it's way down the run
to Grahamville. Diversions were
many, but most of the passengers pre-
ferred to JUS look. The clear, pellucid
depths of the winding river, bordered
with tropical growth, trees, vines and
flowers and studded with water lilies
and hyacinths, holds ones interest
with it's ever changing curves and
scenery which strangers rave over and
home folk take for granted but never
tire of.
After pleasant run to Grahamville
where the boat tied up, the passengers
went ashore and the well filled bas-
kets were passed to the picnickers,
and they spread their lunch on the
green under the shade of spreading
trees or on board the boat and en-
joyed the feast which had been pre-
pared, ending with ice cream cones
and watermelons.
And then the homeward bound trip
began, as big round, yellow moon
turned the clear depths of the river
to molten silver that ran between tall,
dark banks and then disappeared just
around the corner. And what always
goes with moonlight land water
music, was furnished by groups of
singers on board. Miss Catherine
Pyles with her ukelele and endless rep
etoire of songs was the leading spirit
in the musical line and gave pleasure
and entertainment to all on board.
Upon arrival at the dock the appre-
lciative ones gathered around and gave
three cheers to Miss Margaret Taylor,
who by her excellent management
and hard work made this afternoon
and evening of enjoyment and pleas
ure possible, after which the crowd
left for home.

PYTHIAN PICNIC
IN ONE OF FLORIDA'S
PRETTIEST PLACES

Few places in Florida are possessed
of as much natural beauty as the
Wekiwa Blue Springs, at Juliet, in
Marion county, twenty miles south
west of Ocala.
The springs make a large pool of
beautifully clear water, lying in nat
ural saucer, the sides of which are
covered with forest. Most of this
forest is composed of large hardwood
trees, which except at high noon cast
their shade to and partly over the wa
tiers of the springs. To the east and
south this forest thickens into swamp,
and almost south there is break in
the rim of the saucer, thru which the
water of the springs start in their
rush to join the Withlacoochee river
six miles away.
Wekiwa in the Indian tongue (not
the Seminole, but the Indian who was
here when DeSoto rode thru, means
tho perfectly clear has, owing to its
depth and rapidity of current, blue
sheen when viewed from a little dis
lance.
Blue Springs is to sDunnellon what
Silver Springs is to Ocala, being
about the same distance from the
town and offering almost the same
bathing facilities. 1t has, however,
hardly half the volume of water of
Silver Springs and does not rise in
such a deep cavity in the earth. The
water in the two springs is about the
same, their watermarks rise and fall
spontaneously, and there is reason to
believe they have underground con-
nection. A good many Ocala people
now visit Blue Springs, and the num-
Der will greatly increase when the
roads are improved enough to make
the trip a short one.
Blue Springs was partly improved
before anything had been done for
Silver Springs, except to build some
ugly warehouses and wharves.
Fifty years ago, little river steam
ers would occasionally leave Cedar
Keys on calm days, push themselves
with their sternwheels across the
blight formed by an indentation of the
gulf in the coast line and up the
Withlacoochee river and Blue Springs
run to Blue Springs, whereSthere was
dock, warehouse and big country
store, which they kept supplied with
goods. These trips were of irregular

were cooked in record time and with
record success.
Altho all had plenty, many going
for second helping, there was
enough and then some. The last the
reporter saw of the table, the bunch
of colored boys who had helped were
standing at the end of it, before
them a mountain of fish, which they
were rapidly digging down to a small
hill.
There was no hurry to start home
after supper. The people enjoyed a
social mixing and chatted pleasantly.
Ocala and Dunnellon people are well
there being many from
each town who have gone to the other.
About eight o'clock, however. the
crowd began to thin out. A big
powerboat, loaded with happy young
folk, sputtered and barked, and then
raced away down the run toward
Dunnellon, with a 'bone in her teeth
and foaming wake" Auto after
auto climbed the rim of the saucer
and shone it's lights homeward.
The Star reporter was not able to
count up the Ocalans present They
mixed up so in the crowd and were
never in one place more than a min
ute, except when eating. at which time
the reporter was feeding himself

top of the world.
One of the best things about the fish
was that they were all caught, pre-
pared and served by the hands of the
knightly brethren. No silver hook
used. Messrs. J. O. Edison, Gus Gal
liant, Randolph Chalker and Will
Coins caught the fish the day before
in the Withlacoochee river, between
Dunnellon and Camps dam, with rod
and ree-quite piscatorial feat,
when it comes to catching enough to
feed hundred and fifty people. One
hundred and thirty-five black bass
were caught, about fifteen of which
weighed not less than 7a pounds
each. The catch totalled $50 pounds
These were cleaned and put on ice to
await cooking. This operation was
also performed under the supervision
of Mr.. Edison. The fish were carried
to the springs and cooked close to the
supper tables. Mr.. Edison used big
iron pot over an open wood fire. Into
this pot. which was half-full of boiling
lard the fish were lowered a dozen or
so at time in q big steel basket. 1t
took but few minutes to fry each
batch, a deep brown ON the outside
and sweet, white meat on the inside.
Beside the pot, a couple of large fry
ing pans were kept going. The fish
