A PLEA FOR MORE FLAGSTo one who has been living near a large cantonment

or naval base or even one of at one of our large citieswhere war is constantly before our eyes, in throngs ofsoldiers in khaki, or sailors in navy blue, in the countlessbanners flung abroad from house and shops service flags,Red Cross flags, the colors of the allies, and the stars andstripes, Winter Park presents a serene and peaceful airthat seems to set her far apart from wars and rumors ofwars.

To the superficial observer, Winter Park resemblesone of "the fortunate isles, deep meadowed, happy, fair inorchard lawns" unruffled in her serenity, and peace.But underneath its calm exterior, in spite of the dearth ofmartial array there is a storng clear flame of patriotismburning at the hearts of its citizens. Witness the splendiddrives recently of the Liberty Bonds, Red Gross, Y. M. C.A. and Y. W. C. A., the latter exceeding the quota for theentire county. The loyal work of the surgical dressingsforce is most commendable and another unit has just beenestablished for this branch of the Red Cross at the CountryClub. Winter Park is well represented in war work, incamp and fort, in trench and "hut," at home and over seas.

We want more flags in Winter Park to express andsymbolize oue patriotism. Every house should display the-colors, every shop should have its flag.

One of our citizens has given a new flag to the townand the board of trade is giving a service flag. RollinsCollege is flying service ilags for its alumni its fraternityand the college itself.

Show your loyalty to your country by displaying itscolors at your home and place <>f business.

WANTED—A COMPLETE FILE OF THE "POST."It has been suggested that the Library should have a

complete file of the "Winter Park Post" for reference. Hasany one saved copies of the Post from its beginning?

MRS. WHiPPLE ASKSFOR ITALY

W A R

The following letter from Mrs.Henry H. Whipple widow o£ the lateBishop Whipple of Minnesota, will beof general interest to many here.-andin Maitland where she and Bishop

.Whipple lived many years and wherethe Whipple homestead is still one ofthe attractive places of the town.

Mrs. Whipple has been living withher sister, Mrs. Kingsmill Marrs in

-Florence for several years and', "sinceItaly entered the war, she has, beenworking with Miss Rose Cleveland, sister of the late President Cleveland,in caring lor the suffering Italian sol-diers and refugees.

The New York "Times" prints theletter which was written to Dr.'•-flat-tery, rector' of Grace church,"ork as follows:

"F-rom the grim day of that 5mid-summer of 1914, when I consecfatedmyself to the cause, my thoughts -havebeen for the soldiers and their fami-lies. I began with Belgium and Eng-land and then with Italy upon her en-trance into the struggle. I did not gointo hospital work at Rome or Flor-ence, where the numberless flockedto offer their services in the morestimulating atmosphere of town life,but desired to remain in the littletown af Bagnix.di Lucca, knowing thatI could do far more useful work indirect contact with the people, employ-ing them in work for soldiers. '

"I hare been employing a large t>andof poor women, whose husbands andsons are at the front, in war work.Of -course, the expense of lighting,heating, and stocking the workroomshas become a serious matter, as pricesof everything are more than doubled.The refugees from the invaded placeshave inundated us like a tidal waveand the care of them is now added toother burdens. They were obliged toflee in haste and most of them aredestitute of almost everything. Chil-dren in arms are constantly seen with

j nothing but a thin strip of oM shawlto keep them from the biting cold.The difficulties of the food and fuelquestion make the situation a- tragicone. Shoes are like rubies, ljut theyare necessities in this climate.

I am helping to employ €he reifu-gees in my rooms and the work goeson at high pressure for the.-militaryhospital at Lucca. Within four dayswe have finished 500 mattresses forthe wounded soldiers, who are*;!beingrushed in from the fields. - fJesidesthe hospital work the womew-worksteadily in knitting for the s|fdiers,and now- I am trying to suEfcp!ing for the refugee's."

In appealing for help, Mrs.said: "I iknow my countryman wellenough to 'know that could they real-ize one-tenth of these necessities notone hand would; be. witheld. If youwould echo my appeal from this gal-lant, now fighting at white heat forhonor and victory, it might bring mehelp, for which my gratitude wouldbe .eternal."

Dr. iSlattery said that he would wel-come any contributions for Mrs. Whip-pie's work at the Grace Church Rec-tory, S04 Broadway.

OFFICE OF THE DIVISION ATH-LETIC DIRECTOR, 82nd DIVIS-ION, CAMP GORDON, GEORGIA

Camp Gordon, Ga., Jan. 3rd, 1917From—C. A. Boyer, Division Ath-

letic Director.To—Dr. Ben Freer.Subject—Personal correspondence.

Dear Mr. Freer:—"We are now just having our sec-

ond big snow storm ibut work movesalong just the same. In spite of thesnow the men get out and engage inall forms of athletics.

Some Of my work here in ath-letics might be of interest to you andthe boys. I am given entire super-vision over all athletics here in campand when you come to consider thatthere are over forty thousand menhere it is quite a job and responsibil-ity. However I have an able bodyctf assistants and I am glad to reportthat we have been getting along in

great shape. After seven in the mornring the boys engage for about a halfan hour in all kinds of informal gamessuch as prisoners base, swat 'em, tug-of-war, and in fact all the gameswhich we use to play when we werekids. In the afternoon after the cess-ation of military duties, it is not un-usual to see going on at one time, fif-teen or forty foot ball games, and asmany basket ball games, volley ballgames, soccer games, base (ball games.I am also making !boxing and wrest-ling a ibig feature here for I believeit to be one of the greatest assets inthe present' system of modern warfaTe, namely ibayonet fighting. Themen are very enthusiastic over 'both.I nave erected a number af boxingplatforms over the camp and these arein use all the time when the menare off duty. I have a system underway to teach the commissioned ath-letic officers in each Company thatthey in turn may teach their men thevarious blows, blocks and foot work.On New Years morning and afternoon

we had about a dozen good wrestling.nd boxing bouts o'£ four rounds each.

All participants were .professionalsprior to their entry in the army. Wehad about ten thousand spectators atthese events. We also had 'big trackand field meets all over the camp.Inter Regimental meets. These werealso run off with success and with alarge attendance.

Our out door basket ball courts areto lighted with electricity. We haveabout three hundred basket ball teamshere. These are all in leagues witheight teams to the league.

This Camp is well organized andconditions here are very good. It islocated about fourteen miles outsideof Atlanta. The men here are quartered in barracks, well heated.

It is a great sight to see these menland. All walks of life are represent-ed and a man in this work has agreat chance to toe able to foe a greatjudge of human nature.

jI have the use of a horse at my

disposal which enables me to getaround every day and see just whatis being done and to make suchchanges as I think are for the best.

I love this work and I expect tomake it my permanent work afterthe war is over if I come out aliveand in good condition. I am also ingood condition myself physically.

The Y. M. C. A. is doing a greatwork for the men. They furnish freewriting material, reading matter, a.piano, victrola, moving pictures and'other forms of amusements.

I would be glad to have you remem-ber me to all my friends. With bestwishes to Mrs. Freer and yourself Ibeg to remain, '

Cordially yours,CLARENCE A. BOYER,"

WINTER PARK MAN WILL PLANTCASTOR BEANS

In speaking of the castor ;bean con-vention recently held at Tampa Dr.Ben Freer says he hopes Florida maybecome a great centre for this indus-try as, in writing to New York deal-ers, for quotations, he finds the pricesfor Castor Oil almost prohibitive, as'it is all imported from Europe. It isinteresting to know that Prof. W. O.Rencher of Rollins College is {alreadyplanning to plant 9 1-2 acres'and nodoubt others will realize the opportun-ities to become producers of the Cas-tor bean.

HUNDREDS TAKE CIVIL SERVICEEXAMINATIONS ,

The civil service examination con-ducted at the Central School audi-torium Saturday to supply clerks forthe .various branches of the government's war work was the largest everheld in the state, in point of the number of persons taking it, according toFrank A. Keene, secretary of th© local civil service board.

Two hundred and twenty-five per-sons, one hundred and fifty of whomwere Miamians, took the examinationsand fifty school teachers, not permanent residents of this city, and twentyfive tourists stopping at various hotelsand apartment house>s, also appliedand participated."

Mr. Keene was aided by half adozen assistants, all of whom hadtheir hands full, having to -look overtwenty-two hundred sheets of paper.Mr. Keene and one of Ms assistantsworked all night Saturday and a largepart of yesterday and last night, get-ting the papers ready to send toWashington.

The examination papers will not begraded by the -civil service authori-ties at Washington until March 1, andthen t^ie applicants will b& notifiedif they passed. The applicants willbe permitted to name the date onwhich they will report for duty. Itis presumed that the school teacherswill not report until the pre'sentschool term closes.—Miami Herald.

KNITTING

Except for a very heavy wind andrain of a half hour's duration, WinterPark was. not affected by the tornado;that struck Irer neighboring communi-ty—Apopka. This first tornado tomake its appearance in Orange Coun-ty seemed to have had all the ear-marks of a genuine Kansas "twister"with the usual number of freakishincidents.

That no life was lost is remarkableand although we deplore the estimat-ed loss of $125,000 in property werejoice that death at least was cheatedand that no lives were sacrificed.

Mrs. N. A. Follett invited a numberof ladies to her tome, Wolverstone,on Saturday to meet Mrs. WilliamLivingston of Calgary, Alberta, who isvisiting her sister, Mrs. R. P. Foley.

Th-e ladies were invited1 to bring•their war knitting with them. Knit-ting is a feature-of most social af-fairs nowadays when no one is sup-posed to be idle at any time.

, Castor oil is the only lubricant found satisfact-ory ifor airplane lubrication. It is the only lu-bricant that will flow at high altitudes. Unlessthe United States can secure its quota of castor

! oil. the 22,000 airplanes now under constructionwill avail us nothing; they cannot ascend with-

j out lubrication. The a irplane is the eye of themodern fighting machine; it is the most vitalfactor in present-day fighting methods. The

t success of American arms in this war will de-| pend primarily upon our ability to mobilize andI completely equip a monster fleet of superior7 aircraft.| Florida must necessarily play an importantI part in supplying castor oil for airplane lubri-•l cation, as this State is one of the few localities

where conditions both as to soil and climate aresuitable for the success ful •cultivation of castorbeans. To supply your government with its

f necessary quota of castor oil it will require the.A..immediate planting of thousands and thousands

of acres to this crop. You c§n render real service by planting castor beans.

To facilitate this work and make it possiblefor Florida farmers and growers to enlist theiracreage with the least delay and without con-fusion, the government has ajwarded contracts toone or two individuals w ho will make sub-con-tracts, supply seed, furnish instructions for cul-tivation and agree to purchase the entire cropwhen harvested, paying a remunerative price atthe growers' shipping point.

Such a contract has been awarded to D.

.v the women prevailed, on the. townauthorities to establish a sanctuary atDun&din, and I believe many othertowns will follow our example."

The Fortnightly Club met at "Bon-nie Burn" Dr. and Mrs. Switzer's at-tractive home, on Ivionaay evening. Alarge number of people enjoyed hear-ing Mr. Arthur Ranous sing in his in-comparable manner, a program ofsongs ranging from grave to gay andcovering various schools of composi-tion.
