SOUTH'S GREATEST AUTO SHOW
OPENS TOMORROW IN
ATLANTA, GA

Next Saturday, February 18th,
marks the opening of what is said
to be the third show in the United
States of natural Importance, being
the premier automotive event of this
entire section, the second annual
Great Southern Automobile Show, in
Atlanta. This event ranks in impor-
tance to the South with the New York
and Chicago shows in their respec-
tive sections; and from every stand
point will compare favorably with
these two great national shows
1t is announced that there will be
more than eighty separate and dis
tnict exhibits, including more than 200
passenger car type models, all of the
leading trucks and tractors, and an
extensive display of automotive equip
ment. There will be in excess of 40,-
900 square feet of space utilized for
exhibition purposes, and the great
municipal auditorium of Atlanta, will
be fttingly decorated for the event.
The show is sponsored by the At
lanta Automobile Association, an exc
cutive committee from this organi-
zation having been appointed last Oc
tober to arrange for the exhibition.
This committee with various assist
ants has been working out the plans
during the past three months, and an
exhibition of tremendous proportions
has been developed.
Through a series of letters, direct
by mail solicitation, and newspaper
publicity more than $50 dealers in
the South have been urged to attend
the show. The effort in this connec-
tion has met with most encouraging
response, hundreds of dealers having
signifed their intention to attend. In
terest in the event also extends to
the many thousands of persons in
this section who are interested in mo-
toring; and a representative attend
ance is expected from the general
public.
Mr.. ]. H. Spencer, of the local Buick
dealers organization states that it is
his opinion that 1922 promises to be
one of the most progressive and pros
porous yeras experienced in the indus
try, with certain and gradual up
ward trend in all other lines of busi-
ness. The wide-awake automotive
dealer is preparing for a very busy
season ahead, and attendance at this
show will be an inspiration to the man
who takes advantage of the oppor-
tunity it affords for personal contact
with many prominent men of the in
dustry who will be present.

MARION TAKES MANY BLUE
RIBBONS At TAMPA FAIR

makes me feel good to "blaze it" that
Marion county beats Canada in show
ing corn and pumpkins and it has been
truthfully said that any man,woman,
girl or boy who does not like pump
kin pie will bear watching.
In sweet and Irish potatoes Marion
county's exhibits are not second to
any at the fair.
The live stock horses, cattle and
hogs shown are fine and would do
credit to any of our Western states.
The poultry shows are fine as could
be shown anywhere for no state can
produce finer lot of poultry than is
shown here from Florida.
The Florida publicity car" is locat-
ed beside the Canadian building and
the Silver Springs, natures most beau
tiful scenery is drawing crowds of
tourists.

Marion County Bright Prospects and Advantages
Over Other Sections of the State Pointed
Out In Comprehensive Manner

of the northern winters become per-
manent residents and thus it is that
the city, while essentially southern,
is permeated with the best blood of
many states, condition which makes
for cosmopilitanism and for the in
fusion of the enterprise and energy
for which the city has become far
famed. With Ocala as the hub" one
may travel in any direction through
out the county and glimpse the un-
rivaled conditions for which Marion is
noted. She can boast Of being one Of
the richest agricultural, fruit growing,
phosphate producing, and naval stores
shipping sections of the sunny South
land and the finest stock-raising coul-
ty in all Florida.
"All the cereals, corn, beans, on :.
ETC., grow abundantly; potatoes, swee.
and Irish, are produced prolifically;
| it is the paradise of the melon and
cantaloupe grower many hundreds Of
these luscious edibles being shipped
every season; it is the home of hcrti-
culture, the orange grove having
again assumed its pleasant and profit
able sway; peaches, pears, and maay
citrus and other fruits thrive prodi-
giously in any portion of Marion's
/ soil.
"Close by Ocala are found stock
farms which have few or no peers
throughout the entire country; many
of them noted as the breeding homes
of the finest blooded stock in the
South. No cattle owner in Marion
county need fear for the lack of neces-
sary conditions for the successful
breeding and raising of his stock; the
food required for the cattle is bount-
] eously prevalent Neither need the
fear of disastrous droughts such as
in the western cattle sections be an.
ticipated, for everywhere in Marion
county are rivers, springs and clear
lakes yielding an inexhaus.ible quality
of the finest water. Moreover, in
most parts of this entire section the
purest artesian water is available with
in easy reach of the surface.
Marion county is noted the coun-
try over for its practically unlimited
deposits of phosphate, quality which
has no peer Continuous streams of
heavily laden freight trains depart
from the phosphate producing sections

ed upon waiting vessels for transport
to all the marts of the world.
''The county is honey-combed with
actively producing turpentine stills,
another condition which tends to de-
monstrate the extent to which Marion
county is blessed, both by the natural
conditions existing and also by the

We have been informed that the
proposition to build a new Presbyte-

While not the largest, it is the rich

name of mammoth and splendid

It is printed on very heavy calender
Cd uaper and contains very nearly
eight hundred pages.
Mr. Anderson, of this city, contribut-
Cd the following article and it is one
Of the few contributions of the kind
the book contains.
It is almost altogether biographical
and the pictures of the famous men
are from the hands of the most ex-

fine as steel engravings.
Mr.. Anderson says:
among all the splendid counties
Of the state of Florida there is not
one more royalty endowed by nature
and Typographical position than is
the county of Marion, the back bone of
the state.
Marion county may be termed THE
Ridge" of the peninsular section of
the state, from the fact that its rivers
on one hand empty into the Atlantic
ocean, and on the other, empty into
the Gulf of Mexico. Both in summer
and in winter the temperature is
modified by the breezes, fresh from
the great bodies of water which tend
to make the climate one OF her most
priceless assets, a climate acclaimed
by both visitors and residents alike
as being soft, invigorating and de-
lightful.
Upon the map of Florida one finds
Marion county situated midway be.
tween the city of Jacksonville on
the northeast and Tampa on the
southwest, just in the center of the
region of which the Atlantic ocean
and the Gulf of Mexico form the nat
ural boundaries.
In the center of the county, which
itself is the center of the state, one
finds the prosperous city of Ocala, the
