I really believe that I could parse a sentence, if occasion re required, quired, required, and as for adjectives, why I am chock full of them. This summer school is a bigger thing than the average Floridian real izes, and when one takes into consid eration that there were six summer normal schools conducted in the state this year, with close to fifteen hun hundred dred hundred students, all anxious to improve themselves in different lines of studies, it can be appreciated that the student body of Florida is advancing with rapid strides. This Gainesville Uni University versity University is a great proposition, and of it I will have more to say later on. I also diversified the monotony by rflaking a trip to Live Oak, and watch watching ing watching the postmasters of the state go thru the agonies of holding a con convention. vention. convention. I'll tell you all about this too, when I get some time. But what immediately concerns me most is to find upon my return practically a de deserted serted deserted village, and at night it is so lonesome that I can go out and carve great hunks of lonesomeness out of the black night air. I miss Mrs. Millsom's cheerful face, and hear that she is having a good time in Connecticut.

Mr. M. G. Bateman and son, James Means have gone to Calhoun, Ga., for a month's stay. The Boys' Club has had a fine ten nis court built in the town square and there are some very close games (when it does not rain) every after noon. The club consists of eight members, Mr. William Christian pres ident, Mr. Joshua Gist vice president and manager and Mr. Claude Sander3 secretary and treasurer. Quite an interesting dance was giv en at Gist's hall by- the young men on Friday night which was very much enjoyed, eight couples participating. Music was furnished from Gaines ville. Mr. W. Hamilton and family have moved from the Christian hill into town, occupying the home recently vacated by the Larrains. Mr. Ed Hopkins of Tallahassee spent a few days with his cousins, the Norsworths, leaving for his home Tuesday morning. His friends were glad to see him looking so well and have him with them even for so short a time. On Tuesday afternoon Mrs. W. R Dedman gave a farewell party and handkerchief shower in honor of Miss Annette Gist, who left Thursday, the 12th, for San Francisco, and will sai from there the 25th for Japan. The guests, fifteen in number, were high highly ly highly entertained by a floral contest. Each question when answered repre sented a flower. The booby prize, J bottle of catsup, was won by Mrs Joseph I. Gist that she might "catch up." The refreshments consisted o: ice tea and appetizing sandwiches such as only Mrs. Dedman is known tc make. Each guest was presented with a bunch of forget-me-nots. Upon leaving each one pledged their word they had had a most enjoyable aft emoon. Mr. Boulware and son Robert, who have been sick for several weeks with fever are convalescent. THE CLERK GUARANTEED IT "A customer came into my store the other day and said to one of my clerks, 'have you anything that will cure di diarrhoea?' arrhoea?' diarrhoea?' and my clerk went and got him a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and said to him, 'if this does not cure you, I will not charge you a cent for it., So he took it home and came back in a day or two and said he was cured," writes J.

Foggs house is closed, and learn that she is enjoying herself in a part of Gorgia, where watermelon and chicken and all kinds of good things grow twelve months in the year. I also miss the imposing height of Mr. Sam Millican from the streets. And one face that I do sincerely miss and will always remember, is good old Uncle JohnIIaf ner, who ended his earthly career by haneincr himself. Poor Uncle John meant well by all the world, and gave every one a square deal, but they took advantage of the old gentleman's big heartedness" and handed him the short end of the stick, and it broke his heart. Oak Knoll aJso appears deseKed and Mr. and Mrs. Adam Hafner are enjoying the hospitalities of Centra Pennsylvania. Another face that I do not miss is that of big, good natured John Lyles He has not gone, but has added to, and now it is Mr. and Mrs. John Lyles. One face that I miss and it pains me not to see it, is that of Mrs. Ella Lyles Fant, who has lain so long in the hospital at Ocala, and who is mak ing such a brave struggle to gain her health and get on her feet once more, Another face that I missed by being away, was Fisk Bryant, who during my absence made a trip to Belleview fiom Missouri bringing a brand new bride with him, showing her off to his i home folks, and then flitting away to his western home, leaving people to wonder at what a fine big man he had grown to be. I will never forget the trip that I made down on the Caloosa Caloosa-ha ha Caloosa-ha tehee river on a steam boat that was run by gasoline, and that carried fish for a living, and of which Fisk was the captain, and I was a passeng passenger, er, passenger, going up into the Everglades near Lake Okeechobee. We meet people we know all over the world. Good luck to you Fisk. I need some dress making, and up upon on upon inquiring about Mrs. John T. Hames, learned that she has hied her herself self herself away to her old home in South Carolina. The first night that I was home I looked very expectantly to see Freeman Hames smiling visage ap appear pear appear at the doorway to fill his regular appointment, pumping the piano-player, for our evening entertainment, and when he did not appear, I wondered why and was told that he had gone out into the world to carve his own path to fame and fortune, and that he was up in Virginia, making good money, and I know that he will do well where where-ever ever where-ever he goes. Thi3 leaving home habit among our young people is growing contagious, for the last person whom I ever sus suspected pected suspected of leaving home and traveling far, was Bennie Shedd, and now he is up by the salt water in South Carolina. And Folke Sjoberg going in the oppo opposite site opposite direction is having a good time in Chicago. I also miss Mrs. James J. Nelson, who is sojourning along the beautiful historical Hudson river in New York state, while Mrs. Ruth Perry Nelson is at her old home on Long Island Sound in Connecticut. When I went away I left Dad Hardi Hardi-son son Hardi-son laying sick at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Pratt, and nursed carefully by Mrs. Northy, and now I find him back in his own home, over in Hardison's addition to Belleview, hale and hearty, while Mrs. Northy is in Atlanta, and Mrs. Pratt is just re recovering covering recovering from a severe illness, brought on by the long siege of day and night nursing. I also miss the cheerful personality of jolly Mrs. Hopkins who is dividing her time between Bridgeport, Conn., and points on the Hudson river. Mrs. Bohanon, who could hardlj Y. wait to tell roe that she had lought he James Collins place, just north of .-. the depot, by jimminy, and that Delle- i view was her home now and for ever more, and the farm life for me. j M After all this absence and coming''-' back to this deserted town, perso'i after person plied me with the ques- tion, "would I soon be writing for the "' Star again?" And that good old ally' and faithful supporter of the Star, Mr. J '. Isaac Nichols, was one of the first to greet me and press $2 into my hand for a continuation of the Star, and to express his pleasure at my being home once more. It is friendship like thi3 that counts and that makes life worth the living an?is what makes the world go 'round. Another thing to add to my utter bewilderment and astonishment when asked whose furniture was being shipped away, Prof. A. B. Connor ap peared upon the scene pompous and dignified as ever and informed me it was his furniture that he was mov moving ing moving to Inverness, where he had accept accepted ed accepted the principalship of the largest school in Citrus county, with a good faculty of teachers under him, and with Mrs. Connor as assistant to the principal. The world do move! And Prof. Connor is one of the movers, and we will watch him with interest as he climbs the ladder to fame and for tune in the school world of Florida. In changing from the busy turmoil of school life at Gainesville back to the quiet monotony of home life in Belle Belleview, view, Belleview, which is to be compared to jump ing into a cool pool of water on a hot day, and to take the edge off, and let myself down easy to the regular rou routine tine routine of a hum-drum existence, I picked out the biggest, fattest, jolliest girl in the whole school and brought her home with me, and when Miss Olive Smith of Bartow left me at the depot last Monday afternoon and waved au revoir, I said good bye to school life J and resigned myself to my fate.
