Buildings--Florida Theaters--Florida Film industry (Motion pictures) Description The Milane Theatre was built at 203 South Magnolia Avenue, the former location of the Star Theatre, an abandoned movie house. Scroggs and Ewing, architects from Georgia, prepared the plans for the Milane. The name of the new theater was derived from the combination of the Milane Amusement Company president and vice president: Frank L. Miller and Edward F. Lane, respectively. The Milane opened in July of 1923 and seated 823 patrons. In 1933, the Milane was sold to Frank and Stella Evans, investors from Lake Mary, Florida. The new owners renamed their business the Ritz Theater and held the property until the 1990s. However, the Ritz struggled financially in the 1960s and closed in 1978 due to failure to compete with the new multiplex theaters. The building remained vacant until 1984, when it reopened as the Showtime Cantina. The Showtime Cantina closed in 1988 and remained vacant and in decay. In the mid-1990s, Ritz Community Theater Projects, Inc. acquired the property and began rehabilitation in 1998. On May 6, 2000, the theater reopened as the Helen Stairs Theatre in honor of the citizen who led the restoration project, Helen Stairs. The following year, the location was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2008, additional renovations were completed and the theater was renamed the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center in honor of the Wayne Densch Charitable Trust Fund for contributing to the renovations fund.

Title Stage Entrance at the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center Alternative Title Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center Subject Sanford (Fla.) Buildings--Florida Performing Arts--United States Theaters--Florida Theater--21st century Segregation--Florida Description The current stage entrance of the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center, which was formerly the segregated colored entrance at the Milane Theatre and later the Ritz Theater. Originally the Milane Theatre, the building was constructed at 203 South Magnolia Avenue in Sanford, the former location of the Star Theatre, an abandoned movie house. Scroggs and Ewing, architects from Georgia, prepared the plans for the Milane. The name of the new theater was derived from the combination of the presidents of the Milane Amusement Company president and vice president: Frank L. Miller and Edward F. Lane. The Milane opened in July of 1923 and seated 823 patrons. In 1933, the Milane was sold to Frank and Stella Evans, investors from Lake Mary, Florida. The new owners renamed their business the Ritz Theatre and held the property until the 1990s. However, the Ritz struggled financially in the 1960s and closed in 1978 due to failure to compete with the new multiplex theaters. The building remained vacant until 1984, when it reopened as the Showtime Cantina. The Showtime Cantina closed in 1988 and remained vacant and in decay. In the mid-1990s, Ritz Community Theater Projects, Inc. acquired the property and began rehabilitation in 1998. On May 6, 2000, the theater reopened as the Helen Stairs Theatre in honor of the citizen who led the restoration project, Helen Stairs. The following year, the location was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2008, additional renovations were completed at the theater was renamed the Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center in honor of the Wayne Densch Charitable Trust Fund for contributing to the renovations fund.

It was built by the Sanford Novelty Works of which Mr. V. C. Coller is proprietor and was designed by Mr. H. S. Selleck foreman of the wood working department of this firm, and does the designer great credit. Mr. Selleck did the entire wood work doing most of it by hand. It is made of gum finished in mahogany with polished glass windows and brass grill work in front of the ticket window. The inside being finished in panel work setting forth much taster used by the builder. The staining, varnishing and painting is the work of Mr. H. E. Wise the paint foreman of the same firm, and this also does much credit to Mr. Wise. This piece of furniture equals anything that might be built anywhere in this country, and goes up to show that Sanford has as fine a wood worker and finisher that may be found anywhere. We ask that every one that can come and have a look at this piece of work. We congratulate the designer and wish him much success and trust that it may be the means of securing the building of other pieces of furniture of this style and design. The management of the theater extends publicly their thanks to the firm and the workmen connected with this piece if work for the extra efforts put forth as shown by the finished product.---Milane Theater.

The Milane Theatre was built at 203 South Magnolia Avenue in Sanford, the former location of the Star Theatre, an abandoned movie house. Scroggs and Ewing, architects from Georgia, prepared the plans for the Milane. The name of the new theater was derived from the combination of the presidents of the Milane Amusement Company president and vice president: Frank L. Miller and Edward F. Lane. The Milane opened in July of 1923 and seated 823 patrons. In 1933, the Milane was sold to Frank and Stella Evans, investors from Lake Mary, Florida. The new owners renamed their business the Ritz Theater and held the property until the 1990s.

In the mid-1990s, Ritz Community Theater Projects, Inc. acquired the property and began rehabilitation in 1998.

Hays is president. One of the documents which testified as to the national importance of the Greater Movie Season Celebration of last August was an endorsement from President Coolidge, who wrote: "My attention has been called to the fact that you are taking the twenty-ninth anniversary of the moving picture industry as as occasion to inaugurate a Greater Movie Season Campaign. Such a movement to emphasize the desirability of worthy motion pictures will be of real public value. "The progress that has been made in both education and entertainment in this tremendous enterprise is an outstanding achievement of the opening years of this Century. I congratulate you and wish you a continuation of your success." 'MANTRAP' (Advance Notice) Perry Marmont has always wanted to go canoeing in the Canadian woods. Marmont is English, and ever since having been in America, he has heard of the glories of summer camping. But he has never managed to do it. "The first autumn I planned to go," says Marmont, "I was suddenly in the position of finding my vacation canceled. "Then late one February, my boss told me I was at last going to realize my ambition--he was sending me to the Canadian wods. But it was for a snow picture! Everything was white and the thermometer stood at about fifteen below while I was there. "The next summer I didn't get a vacation." At last, however, Marmont has gone canoeing. He is featured in "Mantrap," the picturization by Director Victor Fleming of Sinclair Lewis' latest novel, which the Milane presents on Monday. The story is laid in the Canadian woods. The location where "Mantrap" was actually taken was at Little Bear Lake in the San Bernardino Mountains of Southern California a lake-and-woods country, teeming with rivulets and fish. And Marmont's role made him spend most of his time in a canoe. In fact, even when not acting, he was generally to be seen on the water. "It's almost as good as the North lands," says Marmont, "and at any rate I'll be an expert paddler when I do get to Canada." Clara Bow and Ernest Torrence are also featured in "Mantrap." 'EVE'S LEAVES' (Advance Notice) Hong-Kong has it all over Paris on the matter of creating fashions, according to Leatrice Joy. For heavy silk trousers, such as the Chinese girls wear in her latest starring picture, "Eve's Leaves," have made such a favorable impression on Leatrice that she predicts the adoption of feminine pants as everyday wear by women within a few years. Miss Joy laughs at those who are alarmed at the present drift of women's fashions toward masculinity. "We are only getting back to normalcy," declares this attractive star. "The Chinese have been dressing their women in trousers for centuries, and their ancestors were civilized when America's were cliff-dwellers. We are just catching up with their idea that clothes are primarily for the comfort of the wearer. After wearing a boy's costume for two weeks I realize the advantage men have had over us for so long." In "Eve's Leaves," which shows on the Milane screen Tuesday, Leatrice wears a pair of blue dungarees, a flannel shirt, and "sneakers"--a costume which is quite in harmony with her extreme boy-bob. William Boyd plays opposite the star, while Robert Edeson and Walter Long have also have excellent roles. Elmer Harris wrote the adaption for "Eve's Leaves," which was directed by Paul Sloane. 'RANSON'S FOLLY' (Advance Notice) "Ranson's Folly," billed at the Milane for Thursday, is the first picture Dick Barthelmess has mad eon the Coast in over seven years. "Ranson's Folly" was filmed at the Marshall Neilan Studio under the direction of Sidney Olcott. Colonel George L. Byram, a retired U.S. Army expert, superintended the costume and military detail. In this picture Dick plays the role of Lieutenant Ranson, which was made famous on the stage by Robert Edeson. This is the second Edeson stage play Dick has selected for the screen, the other one being "Classmates." "Ranson's Folly" is an adaptation of the famous story by Richard Harding Davis.

"The Little Irish Girl," at Milane Theater Tuesday. "The Little Irish Girl" is founded on C.D. Lancaster's story, "The Grifters," meaning crooks who are a sort of cross between grifters and lifters. The Irish girl is one whose come-hither looks are exploited by a gang of city grifters who are operating in a small country town. The story is a mystery-comedy of rural wit matched against city slickness. The screen version was written by Darryl Francis Zanuck, and the production was directed by Roy Del Ruth. The cast includes John Harron, Matthew Betz, Lee Moran, Gertrude Claire, Joseph Dowling, Dot Farley and Henry Barrows. THE FIGHTING HEART (Advance Notice) Surrounded by an excellent supporting cast, george O'Brien comes to the Milane's screen Saturday in John Ford's latest picture for William Fox, "The Fighting Heart," based on Larry Evan's story "Once to Every Man." It is one of the finest things this young William Fox player has done on the screen. If Larry Evans were writing a special screen story for George O'Brien, he could not have done better than "Once to Every Man." Besides having pathos, humor and dramatic situations, the story gives O'Brien an opportunity to appear in three distinct phases of life into which he fits admirably. O'Brien appears first as a country boy. He goes to the city and is later seen as a prize fighter. In this phase of the story his remarkable physique and boxing ability show to great advantage. Then he appears as the well groomed habitue of /broadway's gilded palalces. SWEET DADDIES (Advance Notice) Charlie Murray, the famous half of the vaudeville team, Murray and Mack, does another of his inimitable portraits of an Irishman in trouble in M.C. Levee's First National picture, "Sweet Daddies," at the Milane Friday. Charlie has won a solid place in the esteem of movie fans the world over, and it was he, along with Charlie Chaplin, and other celebrities who put the name of Mack Sennett on the film map. Murray has since graduated from that famous comedy lot and is under a long term contract to First National from whom he was loaned to play one of the feature roles in "Sweet Daddies." THE GREATER GLORY (Advance Notice) A side of the war that has been clouded in mystery is brought to the screen for the first time in "The Greater Glory," the colossal screen epic showing at Milane Theater Thursday. The picture was produced by June Mathis, who formerly gave the screen "The Four Horsemen," remembered as a priceless achievement. First NAtional releases "The Greater Glory." That the story of "The Greater Glory," which reveals conditions in Vietnam before, during and after the war, is authentic is revealed in the fact that the picture is an adaptation of the celebrated novel, "Viennese Medley," written by Edith O'Shaughnessy, wife of the American minister at Vienna. The assessed valuation of Seminole County in 1925 was $8,000,000.

The different clubs of the city and many other interesting views are clearly shown, and the value of the film as an advertising medium will be great.

Sit still! it's the Publicity Man talking "The Cave Man" ; At the Milane Tuesday : Sated by luxury and the frivolity of her set, Myra yearns for something different--something new to thrill her. On the wings of a torn hundred dollar bill comes adventure in the rough, grimy person of Mike Smagg, a handsome coal heaver, whom Myra introduces into society. The "haut monde" is fascinated by Mike's "cave-man" manners and Dolly, a haughty little deb, proposes marriage to him. Faster goes the merry wheel of make-believe until smash! Mike is again only a common laborer. But--he grabs Myra in the face of the world and marries her --a"cave-man" to the end. Matt Moore and Marie Prevost head the distinguished cast of Warner Bros. production of "The Cave Man," directed by Lewis Milestone from adaption of Gilette Burgess' story by Darryl Francis Zaneck. As Myra Gaylord, Miss Prevost is seen as one of those dilletante daughters of the too rich and too ridle, whose existence has consisted of a vicarious pursuit of artificial thrills. Her problem has been how to amuse herself and so, at a tender age, she finds her thrill possibilities nearly exhausted. She has tried almost everything but useful, constructive endeavor. Matt Moore plays Mike Smagg, a burly, tobacco-chewing, red-flanneled coal heaver. His manners are those of Hogan's Alley. He has bumped frequently and none to gently up against a rough and ready world since the day he entered it. His motto has come to be, "What I want I take--unless the other guy's a better man than me." This characterization is said to be so refreshingly different from those that Mr. Moore has up to this time portrayed, that his admirers will experience a distinct thrill of pleasure at his versatility. The cast also includes Phyllis Haver as Dolly Van Dream, popular favorite of the exclusive social set of which her mother is the leader. She is one of Myra's ilk and becomes a contender for Smagg's attentions until she finds, by his own confession, that his is not an eccentric socialist from London, but an East Side coal heaver. Her mother is portrayed by Hedda Hopper, an authentic creator of grande dame roles. In the part of the young gentleman of faultless antecedents and many polite accomplishments, the direct antithesis of Mike, the perfect escort, is John Patrick, distinguished for his flaming youth characterizations. Finally, as the sylph-like French maid, there is that slim princess, Myrna Loy. FASHION SHOW A STORM IN "MLLE. MODISTE" _______________________ An unusually picturesque fashion show furnishes one of the most colorful episode in the film version of "Mlle. Modiste," Corinne Griffith's latest First National starring picture, showing at the Milane Wednesday. The revue is called "The Storm." By means of gowns and frocks especially designed for the picture the various elements in an April shower are symbolized. Thus the sun is represented by a mannequin attired in a gown of bright pattern while the clouds are represented by models in gowns of sober coloration. Others in the little fashion show play represent the lightning, the sunbeams and the rainbow. Adrian, noted Parisian designer, created the pageant. Corinne Griffith appears on the scene "after the storm," displaying a number of gorgeous frocks. One in particular, with a black velvet bodice trimmed with white buttons and white monkey fur, is said to be exceptionally attractive. The most beautiful girls in Hollywood were selected as mannequins for this episode. Lilian Knight, who was crowned Miss Los Angeles, in one of the models. This picture is an adaptation of the famous Victor Herbert operetta. Robert Z. Leonard directed. A LITTLE CORNER OF PARIS __________________ Paris was reproduced--or at least a little corner of it--in California, when Edmund Goulding directed his new Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production, "Paris," billed to the Milane for Thursday. Several hundred French girls and men, recruited by the casting office in a canvass of the French population of California, appear in the Apache cafe scenes; many of them could speak no English, and Goulding directed the scenes in French. Actual reproductions were built, from photographs, of "the Brircage" and other famous haunts of the Paris Apaches. In the case of "The Birdcage," which strangers are never allowed to enter, the pictures were obtained by co-operation of the Paris police prefecture. The place is so dangerous that no gendarme ever invades it unaccompanied.

Little Miss Moran is only sixteen years old. After playing in one or two pictures abroad she made her American screen debut in "Stella Dallas," in which she scored an instantaneous and remarkable success. In "Just Suppose" she appears as a sweet aristocratic child of the South who falls in love with the very handsome and romantic Prince of "Koronia," played by Richard Barthelmess. Others in the cast include Geoffrey Kerr, Henry Vibart, Harry Short, Bijou Fernandez and Prince Rokneddine. HUNTING T.R.'S DOUBLE ________________ Men from many walks of life have been suggested as "living doubles" of Theodore Roosevelt to play the role of the late President in "The Rough Riders," which Paramount is to produce as a super-special this summer. The list includes many humble workmen, as well as men in every professional walk of life, including a former United States Senator. One aspirant is J.A. Nicholas of Los Angeles, a carpenter, who actually was a member of the Rough Riders Regiment in his youth. Frank Hopper of Los Angeles is a book agent. Peter deJesu is a sailor at the Naval Training Station at Newport, Rhode Island. Dr. Judson Moshelle, a physician of Indianapolis, has been suggested, as has Reverend L. William Hones of Roscoe, New York. A sea captain, O.B. Olson, is another who has been put forward. Professor A. S. Eve is a professor of McGill University, Montreal. Ex-Mayor Davis of Woburn, Mass., represents municipal circles, and Edward Gabori is customs inspector at Christobal, Panama Canal Zone. Dr. A. P. Montague of Mercer University, Macon, Ga., has also been put forward. An award of $500 has been offered by Paramount through Herman Hagedorn, Roosevelt's biographer, who is writing the screen story of "The Rough Riders," for the first person who sends in the name and photograph of the man finally adjudged best suited to play the part. WHEN BEERY PARKED _______________ Newspaper-lined vests were popular with Noah Berry at the time he made his first bid for theatrical fame in New York. He also showed a marked liking for fresh air, even to the extent of spending nights on park benches and in less conspicuous spots. It was usually while sleeping that he used the news paper lining. Within a day of his arrival in the big city Noah Berry had pawned everything he owned with the exception of his one suit. It was two years later that he finally got a start on the stage. "And I have been broke many times since," says the now noted screen actor. Berry is now playing what Hollywood critics declare is the greatest role of his career, that of Adjutant Lejaune, "the cruelest beast and bravest soldier" in "Beau Geste," Herbert Brenson's production of P.C. Wren's dramatic mystery-story of the French Foreign Legion. SCREEN NOTES ____________ Studio prop men are supposed to fill in any kind of an emergency during the filming of a motion picture. And they did at the Paramount Long Island studio during the filming of Gilda Gray's first starring picture, "Aloma of the South Seas." A number of scantily clad girls, playing the parts of South Sea Islanders, had to hurry hither and theither serving patrons of a native cafe. They began to pick up splinters in their feet. Prop men carefully picked out each splinter and the feet were treated to a coating of liquid court-plaster. * * * * An entire city built for Zane Grey's "Born to the West," which Paramount is filming on the West Coast, was swept away during a terrific rainstorm in Southern California. * * * * Forty of the prettiest girls in Hollywood were engaged for a garden-party scene in Allan Dwan's next big Paramount picture, "Padlocked." * * * * Fifty-three camels were shipped to Yuma, Arizona, from Los Angeles for use in making Herbert Brenon's "Beau Geste." More than 2000 men were taken to the desert location for battle scenes in his Paramount mystery-romance.

The acts were very clever and made the giving away of the first and second prizes very difficult for the management. Miss Juanita Smith won the first prize of five dollars with a neat little dancing act. Miss Wema Graves won the second prize with a dandy little song, "I've Got the Mumps." Mrs. Gordon entertained very highly with the two songs, "Just a Weary'ng for You," and "Marchetta." The Schuld[?] brothers with a cornet and saxaphone duet, played "Lonesome," and "Yes, We Have No Bananas." The two boys are great.

In 1885, the first Georgetown school was located at the northeast corner of Seventh and Cypress Avenue. It was founded with $100 from the school board. Mr. McLester was the first principal, followed by Mr. Reed and later by Mr. J. N. Crooms, who founded Crooms Academy. Some of the first Sanford businesses owned by black settlers were in Tuckertown, which would later become the business district of Georgetown. In 1887, there were twenty-eight registered voters. Between 1887 and 1923 Georgetown supported five ( Continued on other side) GEORGETOWN: (continued from other side) barbers, a blacksmith, a butcher, a dentist, five dress makers, two draymen, seven farmers, a general store, three dry goods and millinery,five hand laundries, two pharmacists, five postal workers, three realtor, three restaurant owners, five taxi drivers, a theater, undertakers and many churches. Circa 1915, families began to move out of the area for opportunities elsewhere. Family roots were planted and today the properties of many early settlers are still owned by the second and third generations. This community bonded families and persons into building a neighborhood for the future. Georgetown's landmarks include St. James African Methodist Episcopal Church, now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It was designed by Tuskeegee trained builder Prince W. Spears.

The bandstand is on the west side of the park. Lake Eola and the park that surrounds it are one of the unusual features that sets the city of Orlando apart from other places. From its earliest days Downtown Orlando was situated on the west side of the lake. As the town grew into a city, Lake Eola continued to be a focal point for the inhabitants, who used it for bathing, swimming and fishing, while on its shores people picnicked, listened to concerts and religious services. Much of the land around Lake Eola was donated to Orlando by Jacob Summerlin who designated that it be a public park. It has remained one ever since. The rest of the park land was donated by the Musselwhite Family and Mayor Frank Sperry.

Bok, Edward William, 1863-1930 Botanical gardens--Florida--Orlando Bird sanctuaries Carillons--United States Description Booklet about the Bok Tower Gardens published in 1950. Edward Bok retired to the town of Lake Wales, Florida. Bok set out a plan to establish a natural garden and bird sanctuary where people to visit to quietly enjoy nature.He engaged Frederick Law Olmstead, Jr. to design the grounds and asked architect Milton B. Medary to design and build a carillon tower. Lee Lawrie, a noted sculptor from New York, designed the elaborate marble sculpture that adorns the tower. Work was completed in 1928 and, on February 1, 1929, President Calvin Coolidge dedicated the sanctuary. Edward Bok died less than a year later in 1930 and was buried at the foot of the tower. The tower and the carillon housed inside is Bok Tower Gardens' most distinctive feature. The carillon consists of sixty bells, ranging in size from 16 pounds to just under 12 tons. The bells are played like an organ with the keys connected to the clappers of each bell. Bok Tower has had only three regular carillonneurs in its more than 70 years. The sanctuary's first carillonneur was Anton Brees, serving as the only carillonneur from 1928 until 1967. Milford Myhre has been the resident carillonneur since 1968. William De Turk has been the assistant carillonneur since 1993. De Turk is also the librarian of the Anton Brees Carillon Library, which is reportedly the largest and most comprehensive carillon library in the world.

A PERSONAL FOREWORD The inspiration for the Sanctuary and the Tower came of that stuff of which dreams are made. The two combined a dream ti carry on the work of my grandfather, who a hundred years ago transformed a grim desert island in the North Sea, ten miles from the Netherlands mainland, into a bower of green verdure and trees to which came the birds which made the island famed. But an inspiration is of little value if it is not carried into realization, and I was fortunate to enlist the deep interest and sympathetic cooperation of two men who are responsible for what the visitor sees: Frederick Law Olmsted for the Sanctuary and Milton B. Medary for the Tower. Naturally, I could not have obtained two men more thoroughly fitted to give me what I wanted to present to the American people for visitation, and what has been so often called "The Taj Mahal of America"--a spot which would reach out in its beauty through the plantings, through the flowers, through the birds, through the superbly beautiful architecture of the Tower, through the music of the bells, to the people and fill their souls with the quiet, the repose, the influence of the beautiful, as they could see and enjoy it in the Sanctuary and through the Tower. An incidentally it gave me a wonderful opportunity to follow and carry out the injunction of my grandmother to her children and grandchildren: "Wherever your lives may be cast, make you the world a bit better or more beautiful because you have lived in it." That is the basis upon which the Sanctuary and the Tower rests. Edward W. Bok Date Copyrighted 1950 Contributor Cook, Thomas Adam and Eve Allen, J. H.

Title The Legend of the Bridal Chamber at Florida's Silver Springs Brochure Alternative Title Legend of the Bridal Chamber Subject Silver Springs (Fla.) Springs--Florida Amusement parks--Florida Description Brochure, produced in 1951, promoting the Silver Springs' attracting "The Bridal Chamber". The brochure also shows a map of Florida showing pre-Interstate highway roads as several other Florida roadside attractions. Silver Springs was originally settled by the Timucuans in the early 1500s. Although they were able to reclaim their territory after Spanish invasion, the Timucuans were ultimately succeeded by other tribes, such as the Seminoles. In the 1850s, Silver Springs began to attract tourists for steamboat rides. The park's popularity skyrocketed when the glass-bottom boat was invented in 1878.

Postcards--Florida Parks--Florida Lakes--Florida Tourism--Florida Description Postcard showing the Orlando skyline in a night scene as seen from the eastern side of Lake Eola Park. Some of the buildings shown are the Angebilt Hotel, the Orange County Courthouse, and the Lake Eola Band Stand. Lake Eola and the park that surrounds it are one of the unusual features that sets the city of Orlando apart from other places. From its earliest days Downtown Orlando was situated on the west side of the lake. As the town grew into a city, Lake Eola continued to be a focal point for the inhabitants, who used it for bathing, swimming and fishing, while on its shores people picnicked, listened to concerts and religious services. Much of the land around Lake Eola was donated to Orlando by Jacob Summerlin who designated that it be a public park. It has remained one ever since. The rest of the park land was donated by the Musselwhite Family and Mayor Frank Sperry. Source Original 5.5 x 3.5 inch color postcard: E. C.

It also shows a map of Florida showing pre-Interstate system roads as several other Florida roadside attractions. Silver Springs was originally settled by the Timucuans in the early 1500s. Although they were able to reclaim their territory after Spanish invasion, the Timucuans were ultimately succeeded by other tribes, such as the Seminoles. In the 1850s, Silver Springs began to attract tourists for steamboat rides. The park's popularity skyrocketed when the glass-bottom boat was invented in 1878.

Hotels--Florida Postcards--Florida Buildings--Florida Tourism--Florida Description Postcard showing the Seminole Hotel which was built in 1886 on the eastern end of New England Avenue, on Lake Osceola in Winter Park, Florida. The hotel, which cost $150,000 to construct, featured a formal dining room that could seat hundreds, sumptuous covered porches, a bowling alley, and 200 guest rooms. The first winter season had more than 2,300 registered guests. The hotel provided a source of employment for many African Americans in Hannibal Square, the historic African-American neighborhood of Winter Park. On September 18, 1902, a fire caused extensive damage and the owners decided to sell the property for residential lots. In 1913, a new Seminole Hotel was built on the western shore of Lake Osceola on the eastern end of Webster Avenue, present-day Kiwi Circle. In 1970, the building sold for $250,000 and was demolished and replaced by residential developments. Source Original 5.5 x 3.5 inch color postcard: E. R.

Santa Claus U.S. Army Air Forces in World War II Christmas--Florida United States. Army Army Description An Army Air Forces menu created for the Christmas of 1943. The cover shows Santa Claus piloting an airplane over an airbase. There are illustrations of a decorated Christmas tree, a palm tree and what appears to be orange trees. The interior has a Christmas note from Hume Peabody, Brigadier General of the U.S. Army who was Commanding General of the Army Air Force Tactical Center. Although Japan and China were already engaged war since 1937, September 1, 1939 is generally considered the beginning date of World War II. It was on this day that Nazi leader Adolf Hitler invaded Poland, inciting France and the United Kingdom to declare war on Germany. Through the course of the war, belligerents were general divided into two groups: the Allied Powers, consisting of the United Kingdom, France, the Soviet Union, China, Poland, Canada, Australia, India, Yugoslavia, Greece, the Netherlands, Belgium, South Africa, New Zealand, Norway, Czechoslovakia, Ethiopia, Brazil, Denmark, Luxembourg, Cuba, Mexico, the Philippines, Mongolia, and Iran; and the Axis Powers, consisting of Germany, Japan, Italy, Hingary, Romania, and Bulgaria. The United States did not join the Allies until the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. War was waged for several years. On May 8, 1945, Germany surrendered to Soviet and Polish troops in response to the capture of Berlin just a few days earlier, in effect ending the war in Europe. The war in the Pacific theater did not end until Japan surrended on August 15, 1945, in response to the atomic attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. World War II transformed the globe's geopolitical context. The United Nations (UN) was established and the United States and Soviet Union emrged as opposing superpowers, setting the stage for the 46-year long Cold War. Much of Europe was left in economic collapse and decolonization began in Asia and Africa. Source Original menu, 1943: Private Collection of Thomas Cook.

Postcards--Florida Hotels--Florida Buildings--Florida Tourism--Florida Description Postcard showing the San Juan de Ulloa Hotel, located at 32 North Orange Avenue in Downtown Orlando, Florida. The building was constructed from 1885 to 1886 by Captain C. E. Pierce at an initial cost of $150,000. The original owner was Henry S. Kedney, who moved from Minnesota to Maitland in 1870 and then to Orlando in 1885. The initial building was a three-story, wood-framed building topped with a dome. In 1887, Harry L. Beeman moved to Orlando and bought the San Juan Hotel. He added two stories and a new addition for $500,000 around 1900. From 1890 to 1900, it also housed the Downtown Orlando Post Office. In 1903, Beeman added a veranda on the north side. In 1914, Henry Green took charge of $20,000 in alterations, including the addition of a laundry room, 12 private baths, and the conversion of the barbershop into a café. In the spring of 1922, Turner Construction Company added an additional eight stories at a cost of $357,000. In May 1928, there was a plan to spend $150,000 to rebuild it along modern lines but it is not known if this was carried out or to what extent. The hotel also housed a series of services for hotel guests and Orlando residents alike. Among these were several restaurants, a barbershop, and a laundry. The San Juan was the main focal point for activity in Orlando in the early years, but the hotel hit hard times in the 1960s and was re-opened as the Grand Central Hotel, which opened on October 6, 1978. The Grand Central served a gay clientele, featuring several themed bars and lounges. In 1979, the hotel was destroyed by fire. The building was eventually demolished in 1981. The current use of site is a business office originally known as the First Union Bank Tower. It is a 16-story, 300,000-square foot building, completed in 1983.

Postcards--Florida Women's clubs Buildings--Florida Description Postcard, posted on February 5, 1909, showing the Rosalind Club located 37 North Orange Avenue in Downtown Orlando, Florida. It was constructed in 1901 in the Neo-Classical Revival style as a reproduction of the Biloxi, Mississippi home of Jefferson Davis, the first and only President of the Confederate States of America. Davis' niece, Lucy Hayes Lawrence, chose the design. The building was moved to Colonial Drive circa 1921 to make room for the Angebilt Hotel. The original owner was the Sorosis Club. In 1903, it became the home of the Rosalind Club, which was founded in 1894 as the Ladies Social Club of Orlando. The Rosalind Club remained there until 1916 when their new building was finished on the shore of Lake Eola, on the street that became Rosalind Avenue. After 1916, the building was used by the Chamber of Commerce and the Rotary Club. It was bought by M. J. Daetwyler and moved to Colonial Drive for use as an apartment house.

Postcards--Florida Courthouses--Florida Buildings--Florida Osceola County (Fla.) Description Postcard showing the Osceola County Courthouse, the oldest courthouse in the State of Florida that is still in use. The land on which the historic building now stands was purchased from the D. B. Stewart family in 1888 for $2,205.32. On June 3, 1889, bids to construct the courthouse and jail were received and the bid in the amount of $23,879.00 from the Pierce-Torrey Investment Company of Orlando was accepted. Actual construction of the building began in July of 1889. In January of 1890, a portion of the tower collapsed when the supporting timbers were removed, causing a temporary setback in construction as well as in finances, but the courthouse was finally completed by May of that year. In 1977, the Osceola County Courthouse was added to the National Historic Register of Historic Places. In 2011, restoration of the building to its original design begun. Although Osceola County has built a new and larger courthouse, the third floor courtroom continues to be used as an active courtroom, allowing Osceola County to continue to claim the honor of having the oldest courthouse still in use in the State of Florida.

Postcards--Florida Parks--Florida Lakes--Florida Buildings--Florida Description Postcard sent in 1943 from Marvin B. Pernick to Marybelle Campbell. The postcard shows the Orlando skyline in a night scene as seen from the eastern side of Lake Eola Park. Some of the buildings shown are the Angebilt Hotel, rhe Orange County Courthouse, and the Lake Eola Band Stand. Lake Eola Park is one of the unusual features that sets the city of Orlando apart from other places. From its earliest days Downtown Orlando was situated on the west side of the lake. As the town grew into a city, Lake Eola continued to be a focal point for the inhabitants, who used it for bathing, swimming and fishing, while on its shores people picnicked, listened to concerts and religious services. Much of the land around Lake Eola was donated to Orlando by Jacob Summerlin who designated that it be a public park. It has remained one ever since. The rest of the park land was donated by the Musselwhite Family and Mayor Frank Sperry.

Lip[?] has actually taken a vacation arrived at house seven O'clock yesterday morning been to Lake Ivanhoe + at Lake Eola writing now. Lot[?] Love ALice + Lip[?] Description Postcard showing Orange Avenue in Orlando, Florida. The Rutland Building, located at 63 North Orange Avenue, can be seen in the foreground. The original two-story structure was designed by F. Earl Deloe in the Art Moderne-style for Joseph Rutland's menswear store in 1941. In 1952, three additional stories were added. Rutland's closed its downtown store in the late 1960s, but remained open in the Colonial Plaza Shopping Center. Behind Rutland's is the Angebilt Hotel, located at 37 N. Orange. The building was constructed between 1921-1923. Plans to build the hotel were announced in June 1921 and construction cost $1 million. The Angebilt Hotel opened on March 14, 1923. The original owner was Joseph Fenner Ange, who moved to Orlando in 1913 from Martin County, North Carolina. Two months after the building's opening, Ange sold his interest in the hotel. In November 1924, a group of Orlando businessmen purchased the hotel for $1.25 million. Florida's first registered architect, Murray S. King, designed the building in the twentieth century commercial style, complete with eleven stories and 240 hotel rooms. Since its opening, the building has housed the Angebilt Hotel, the Bank of Orange and Trust Company, and the offices for two radio stations including WDBO ("Way Down By Orlando"), which was the first regular radio station in Orlando. As of 2010, it also is occupied by business offices and two restaurants. Across the street is the San Juan de Ulloa Hotel, located at 32 North Orange Avenue in Orlando, Florida. The hotel was constructed from 1885 to 1886 by Captain C. E. Pierce at an initial cost of $150,000. The original owner was Henry S. Kedney, who moved from Minnesota to Maitland in 1870 and then to Orlando in 1885. The initial building was a three-story, wood-framed building topped with a dome. In 1887, Harry L. Beeman moved to Orlando and bought the San Juan Hotel. He added two stories and a new addition for $500,000 around 1900. In 1903, Beeman added a veranda on the north side. In 1914, Henry Green took charge of $20,000 in alterations, including the addition of a laundry room, twelve private baths, and the conversion of the barbershop into a café. In the spring of 1922, Turner Construction Company added an additional eight stories at a cost of $357,000. In May 1928, there was a plan to spend $150,000 to rebuild it along modern lines but it is not known if this was carried out or to what extent. From 1890 to 1900, it housed Orlando's Post Office. The hotel also housed a series of services for hotel guests and Orlando residents alike. Among these were several restaurants, a barbershop, and a laundry. The San Juan was the main focal point for activity in Orlando in the early years. The San Juan hit hard times in the 1960s and was re-opened as the Grand Central Hotel, which opened on October 6, 1978. The Grand Central served a gay clientele, featuring several themed bars and lounges. In 1979, the hotel was destroyed by fire. The building was eventually demolished in 1981. The current use of site is a business office originally known as the First Union Bank Tower. It is a sixteen-story, 300,000-square foot building, completed in 1983.

POLLOK 2519 160 HOPE STREET, GLASGOW, C.2 4th October, 1948 Dear Mr. Harold Esch: I am very interested to hear you are compiling a book on Lawn Bowling for circulation in the United States of America, and I feel sure it will be received with much pleasure by all those who take part in the game in your great Country. During the visit of the British Team (of which I had the honour of being Captain) last year, I was delighted to be informed of the steady growth of the game of Lawn Bowling in America. As I said on many occasions during that memorable Tour, I am confident that before many years have elapsed the Game will be as popular in the United States as it is in the British Isles and the Dominions. My best wishes go with you in the arduous task you have so cheerfully undertaken. Yours sincerely, Ivor B. Thomas President International Bowling Board Milwaukee, Wis. October 20, 1948 My Dear Harold: I am glad you are publishing a new book on Lawn Bowling from the American standpoint. It is very much needed and should be in the hands of every lawn bowler, especially new members. It will greatly promote the game and I wish you abundant success in this labor of love. Sincerely yours, Emmet L. Richardson Honorary Life President ALBA WINTER BOWLING IN ORLANDO The Heart of Florida An invitation to bowlers everywhere to make Orlando their winter headquarters.

Amusement parks--Florida Botanical gardens--Florida--Orlando Flowers--Florida Description Cypress Gardens Booklet from the 1950s that includes information on plants, Cypress Gardens' water-ski show, and motion pictures filmed at Cypress Gardens. Billed as Florida's first commercial tourist theme park, Cypress Gardens opened on January 2, 1936 as a botanical garden planted by Dick Pope Sr. and his wife Julie. Over the years, it became one of the biggest attractions in Florida, known for its water ski shows, lush gardens, and Southern Belles. It became known as the "Water Ski Capital of the World" because many of the sport's landmark firsts and the over 50 world records broken there. Numerous motion pictures were filmed at the Cypress Gardens, including portions of This is Cinerama, the first feature filmed in the wide-screen format, as well as a string of Esther Williams films and television specials in the 1950s and 1960s. In the 1950s, young women dressed in the crinolines reminiscent of the Antebellum South. During the American Civil War Centennial, young men dressed in Confederate uniforms would be photographed with the Southern Belles. With the addition of a custom photography boat named Miss Cover Girl in the early 1960s, the park became a popular site for the filming of television commercials. However, Cypress Gardens closed in 2009. Legoland occupies the former lot. Source Original booklet: Florida Cypress Gardens (Orlando, Florida: Litho U.S.A. Vaughan).

Title Ex President and Mrs. Calvin Coolidge at Dedication of Florida's Big Tree Postcard Alternative Title Calvin Coolidge at Big Tree Park Postcard Subject Longwood (Fla.) Bald cypress Coolidge, Calvin, 1872-1933 Presidents--United States Ex-presidents--United States Cypress Description Postcard showing the Senator, a cypress located at Seminole Big Tree Park. Big Tree Park lies off of U.S. 17-92, south of Sanford in a swampy, mainly undeveloped area. The park's focal points are two ancient and giant bald cypress trees. The largest is known as the Senator; the other is known as the Senator's Brother. The two trees are possibly named in honor of M. O. Overstreet, a Florida state senator who donated the surrounding land to Seminole County in 1951, although they had their current names as early as the 1920s. The trees were a popular tourist attraction from the 1880s onward. In 1929, former President Calvin Coolidge and his wife, who were frequent visitors to Mt. Dora, visited the trees and dedicated them with a bronze plaque. The plaque was stolen in 1945. Both trees are extremely old and their age is typically given at 3,500 years. The Senator was believed to be the largest bald cypress in Florida; however, questions have been raised concerning the definition of "largest." It appears today that the Senator reigns as the cypress with the largest volume, the total amount of wood above ground. The current measurements may make it the largest bald cypress in the United States. As of 2011, the tree's height has been measured around 118 feet tall. It has been said that prior to the 1928 hurricane, it stood as tall as 160 feet. Source Original 3.5 x 5.5 inch black and white postcard: Private Collection of Thomas Cook.

Winter Haven (Fla.) Amusement parks--Florida Water skiing Botanical gardens--Florida--Orlando Flowers--Florida Description Cypress Gardens booklet from the 1950s that includes information on plants, Cypress Gardens' water-ski show, and motion pictures filmed at Cypress Gardens. Billed as Florida's first commercial tourist theme park, Cypress Gardens opened on January 2, 1936 as a botanical garden planted by Dick Pope, Sr. and his wife, Julie. Over the years, it became one of the biggest attractions in Florida, known for its water ski shows, lush gardens, and Southern Belles. It became known as the "Water Ski Capital of the World" because many of the sport's landmark firsts and the over 50 world records broken there. Numerous motion pictures were filmed at the Cypress Gardens, including portions of This is Cinerama, the first feature filmed in the wide-screen format, as well as a string of Esther Williams films and television specials in the 1950s and 1960s. In the 1950s, young women dressed in the crinolines reminiscent of the Antebellum South. During the American Civil War Centennial, young men dressed in Confederate uniforms would be photographed with the Southern Belles. With the addition of a custom photography boat named Miss Cover Girl in the early 1960s, the park became a popular site for the filming of television commercials. Cypress Gardens closed in 2009. Legoland occupies the former lot. Source Original booklet: Private Collection of Thomas Cook.

Postcards--Florida Orange County (Fla.) Clock towers Courthouses--Florida Buildings--Florida Lakes--Florida Description Postcard showing the Victorian-style Orange County Courthouse with Lake Eola in the background. The streets are Main Street (present-day Magnolia Avenue) and Central Avenue (present-day Central Boulevard). The Orange County Courthouse was constructed in 1892 and its cornerstone was laid on January 15, 1892. The architect was A. S. Wagner and the general contractor was the W. C. Green Company of Chicago, Illinois. The red brick, three-story building, which cost $57,000, was built in the Gothic Revival style with a eighty-foot high clock tower. The clock and bell were provided for by W. C. Sherman, a local businessman who raised several thousand dollars for the project. The clock mechanism was manufactured by Dent, London, founded by Edward John Dent, the company which made the Big Ben clock movement in London, England. The bell in the tower weighed 1,500 pounds, was tuned "F", was selected by local musician Harry Newell, and, as of 2011, is on display in the lobby of the Orange County Courthouse. The Orange County Courthouse occupied the building until 1927, when a new primary courthouse was constructed next door. Afterward, it was used for Orange County offices. On July 30, 1957, the building was condemned and then demolished on December 30, 1957. A new Orange County Courthouse Annex building was constructed on the site. In the late 1990s, the Courthouse Annex was demolished and replaced with an urban park called Heritage Square, owned by Orange County. The gray building on the right is the McEwan Clinic, located at 100 East Central Boulevard, which was constructed in 1911. The original owner was Dr. John Singer McEwan. The building was designed to be Orlando's first public hospital. A third story was added circa 1920 to make a total of twenty hospital rooms. Apart from being a hospital and clinic, it was also the Florida Public Service Corporation, later the office of the Florida Gas Company, clothing stores (Artistry), and a 7-Eleven. As of 2011, it is the Central Station Bar. Across the Main Street from the Courthouse is the Orlando Lawn Bowling Clubs grounds. Creator C. T.

The Cher-O-Key ____________________________________________________________________________________________ SPORTS The basketball game between the girls of Cherokee and Memorial resulted in Cherokee, represented by 9-2 winning by a score of 19 to 8. This is the second victory by this same team this year. ____________ The seventh grade girls who play nine square basketball had quite ra hard time to determine the winner. 7-3 finaly [sic] succeeded in defeated all other seventh grade teams. 8-3 was declared winner of the eighth grade. 8-2 and 8-6 came in second in this tournament. In the ninth grade, it was quite difficult to determine the winner. Eliminative tournaments, however, resulted thus: 9-3 third place; 9.1 second; 9-2 first. 9-2 then defeated the winning eighth grade team, won the title of school champions, and repreeented[sic] the school against Memorial where they again met with victory. ____________ 9.4, 8-1 and 7-1 were the winning team in boy's basketball in the respective grades for the season. The ninth grade contest was quite a spirited one. In the finals, nine four, six and three seemed almost equally matched. 9-3 was eliminated first, by receiving defeats from both 9-6 and 9-4. 9-6 then played 9.4, the latter winning. As 9-6 was ahead in the number of victories, they had to play 9-4 again but again were defeated. 9-4 then defeated the 8-1 team. This victory meant that 9-4 boys were the school champions and that they were entitled to represent Cherokee against Memorial- _____________ HUMOR Friend, Drop a tear here for Jack Kline Whose spirit is with The subline.

CHEROKEE GIRLS WIN The basketball game between the girls of Cherokee and Memoral[sic] resnlted[sic] in Cherokee, represented by 9-2, winning by a score of 19 to 8. This is the second victory by this same team this year. They were also volleyball champions at Cherokee and in the Chero-Memo basketball game. The line-up of Cherokee girls was as follows: Forward Evedna Murrah Forward Mildred Wade Guard Virginia Bogenrief Guard Irene Caldwell Running Center Helen Arendt Jumping Center Barbara Parker Cherokee boys seem to have a hard time defeating the Memorial team, and Memorial girls seem to have a hard time defeating the Cherokee team.

We hoped that certain evidences of carlessness[sic], in the form of pencil markind[sic] on the walls, eraser dust on the building, scratching on the desks, etc., would decrease; but they seem to re-ppeare[sic] as steadily as removed. We are fortunate to possess one of the most modern and up-to-date buildings in the state of Florida but we soon will not be able to make this boast if the present rate of vandalism continues. Since we have such a modern building, visitors from all sections of the country are constantly stopping to inspect it and we do not want them to carry away an unfavorable impression of Cherokee. Each of us as a student Cherokee has a definite feeling of pride wheu[sic] we compare this building with others of the city and state. Let us keep this pride intact for ourselves aud[sic] for future stndents of Cherokee by preserving the equitment[sic] place at our disposal.

Vol.1, No. 7 March 8, 1929 One Cent CHEROKEE WINS HONORS Cherokee returned with flying colors from the school exhibits at the Central Florida Exposition. The school distinguished itself by winning 100 ribbons, a notable honor in itself, and additional honors came, however, when the school was presented five dollars for having the best all-round art exhibit on display. The ribbons won by the various department of the school were as follows. In athletics, the boys took eight first places and one third; girls took five first places and one third, In manual arts, three first ribbons and two second, In practical arts, five first places and four second. In home economics, eight first and seven second places. In the printing department, two first places, Cherokee was judged to have the best printing exhibit of any school. In the art department twenty eight first places and twenty six second. 9-5 AND 9-3 DEBATE An interesting match of wits between 9-5 and 9-3 debating teams took place at Auditorium period Wednesday, March 6. The weighty question under discussion was "Resolved that the cafeteria is more important to the school than the library." The affirmative was upheld by Shan Kazarosian, Creola Keith and Sammie Bethea of 9-3; the negative by Ed Blankner, Clinton Minter and Gloria White of 9-5. The judges decided by a 2 to 1 vote in favor of the library. NEW PICTURE FILE IN LIBRARY Some valuable new additions have been made in our library. Mrs Meyer has recently completed a new file, which consists of collection of pictures. The pictures include prints of the masterpieces of paintings from all countries, pictures of historical scenes, of American and British authors, of homes, of famous men, of musicians. etc. These pictures will be invaluable as illustrative material in many departments. They can be removed from the file by teachers only. The Cher-O-Key ______________________________________________________________________________ SPORTS Mr. Meyer appeared on the auditorium program Wednesday, February 27, for the major purpose of showing the students the new General Sports Trophy. This trophy will be presented to the junior high school in Orlando which, at the end of the school year, has won the greatest number of interschool contests. It is thus an award to the school who excells in skill and in strengh in the major sports. The trophy will be presented for the first time at the end of the year, and will be awarded for the next ten years. The trophy is in the shape of a shield, fashioned of bronze with a background of walnut, and having large copper plates which illustrate the major sports of basketball, baseball tennis, swimming, soccer and volleyball. There are also ten smaller plates whereon may be engraved each year for ten years the name of the junior high school winning the trophy. _____________ The first interschool contest of the year will be a doubleheader basketball game between Memorial and Cherokee on March 15. Both boys and girls' teams will play at this time. The teams can do better playing with our support. Let's be there in a body, root for our team and have eye on that trophy. _____________ March 15 is the date Come early, and don't be late. Memorial vs. Cherokee A fast game is what you'll see. Team! Cherokee is counting on you. _____________ Your presence at the Cherokee Memorial game will boost our team to victory. HUMOR Harry Price: What did I learn in school to-day, Miss Wayland? Miss Wayland: Why do you ask, Наггу? Harry: They'll want to know at home. ___________ Miss Brown: Why did George Washington throw the dollar across the Potomac River, Robert? Robert Lanter: To teach his Scotch soldiers to swim. ___________ Mrs. Meyer: Margaret, how could you tell Hazel she is stupid? Go tell her you are sorry, Margaret Russell: Please, Hazel, I am sorry you are stupid. ___________ Bee careful You never hear the bee complain, Nor hear it weep and wail, But if it wish it can unfold, A very painful tail.---Goblin. ___________ It Just Can't Be! A Scotchman was leaving on a business trip, and he called back as he was leaving. "Goodbye all, and dinna forget to tak'little Donal's glasses off when he isna lookin, at anything."---FX. ___________ Exacting Lady: "I want you to send me over a ton of coal that hasn't any ash or clinkers—and without that sulphurous smell." Coal Dealer: Lady, you don't want a ton of coal. You want to get connected with a gas meter.”---Ex. ___________ It will be appreciated if students who have suitable pictures will bring them to the librarian, who will mount them and place them on file. In this way the file can be made more nearly complete. There are also newspaper racks and shelves for professional Magazines which are recent acquisitions to the library. HI-Y-ENTERTAINS The Hi-Y club of Cherokee put on a very clever and impressive program in auditorium on February 27. Several successive tableaux were shown purporting to portray the relation that should exist between father and son. Burwell Howard acted as interlocutor. The Hi-y club is composed of many outstanding boys in the school, the aims of the club being to create friendship among students, to build leadership and character and to maintain a clean Christian spirit. The club under the leadership of Mr. Thompson is doing very illuminative work.

The vernal equinox, which marks the beginning of spring, falls on the twenty-first, and the month is thus partly winter and spring. How many of us in Florida would agree that March is partly a winter month? There have been a number of superstititions connected with March, quite without foundation. One, which is still quoted, concerns the weather. "If March comes in like a lion," the saying is, “it will go out like a lamb; If, on the other hind, the first dry on March is balmy and "lamblike," the last day is certain to be stormy. An other old saying declares that the last three days are borrowed from April, while a third calls the first three "blind day" and declares them to be unlucky. It is not so very long ago that farmers held so firmly to this belief that they would not plant seeds on those days. The special gem of the month is the bloodstone, and the special flower, the violet. CALENDAR OF EVENTS March 7–8 Operetta, "The Wishing Well". Memorial Junior High Auditorium. 8:00 P. M.

EXCHANGE The staff of the "Cher-O-Key" has long wished to pay tribute to the "Memorial Echo,” published by students of the Memorial Junior High School. We appreciate also the publicity it has given to activities at Cherokee. The "Cher-O-Key" also exchanges with the Ocala Junior High School, whose students publish a live page mimeographed paper. We like the cuts and cartoons which adorn every page. We have enjoyed looking over "The Pennant”, published by the Lebanon, Indiana, high school. “The Pennant" is a full sized newspaper with one section devoted to junior high school THE LIMERICK Thelma Jones, of section 7-2, won the limerick contest sponsored by the "Cher-O-Key" and will receive a copy of each issue free. The winning limerick goes thus: We should take the Cher-O-Key; This paper is the school's, you see. It I must support And be a good sport Then the greatest paper will be from Cherokee. The Cher-O-Key ___________________________________________________________________________ CLUB NEWS The "Know Orlando" club, sponsored by Miss Graham, held a very interesting meeting on Friday, March 1.

"Rastus, Ise gwin to tell yo de fragments ob ny min”. Ise been thinkin ober dis here question ob slavery what de Marsa's done been conversation and aw thinks aw sides wid de Union. Aw don believe de states has de right to disjine." Rastus, who had been standing in the background, then spoke up. "Mose, nigger, you am entirely wrong. Ise sided wid disjining from de Union as ma Marsa done done and aw thinks if anybody done go and do de right thing Old Marse sho will do it. If dese here states what am hot wid de questions wants to disjine, and, nigger, I disjine wid im for I sides wid ma master”. “Rastus, Iubs my massa, but dis here nigger sides for a good Union. I has been under Marsa as slave for years, - well, dat is since I was a boy, and Ise tired of bein bossed aгound, I wants to be free to do what I wants, and lib like I wants to Rastus than said: “Mose, we two niggers am growing old an grey. We aint gwine to last much longer but I tells you what we'll do." Instead of continuing the argument the two negroes fell two their knees. "Mose, you can lead in prayar and ask the dear Lawd to help and forgive dese two sinful niggers." Rastus began; "Dear Lawd, what done gone and delivered us out of de land of Canaan and de land of de Jordan, Help dese two niggers what am hot on de question of slavery. Settle our mistaken minds. Amen." Just then from out of the distance came the sound of the supper gong ringing. Rastus jumped up on his old weak legs and shouted: "Yan can dan argue all yo wants to, nigger, Aw guess you wins for when aw hears dat peal from de distance I gets awful greeable. ________ 1,632 students attended the University of Florida summer school last summer.

The three candidates who were introduced in auditorium on Wednesday, Feb. 6, were of equal merit and consequently competion and excitement ran high throughout the day. The candidates were each announced by a student sponsor. Betty Meyer introduced Betty Trimble, Sammie Bethea introduced Richard Lawson, and Bob Gisler told us of Joe Bird's particular merits. Each gave a short speech, urging the votes of the students for one particular person. Balloting revealed that Joe Bird, of section 8-5, was the choice of the students. Everyone feels that the students have selected wisely and that Joe will live up to the standard set by the past presidents. 7-1 Entertains Section 7 report a very interesting program for February 5. The committee who gave the program were Myer Sigal, chairman, Richard Ezzard and Robert Gisler. The first number on the program was “La Cinder", a selection on the piano by Beulah Laverty, “The Novelty Waltz," a piano solo was given by Fred Mauer. The last number was a one act play given by Myer Sigal and Richard Ezzard. Bobby Denney: No girl ever made a fool out of me. Roland Parker; Well, who did then? Miss Freeman Visits school Through the courtesy of the Orlando, Ice Dealers Association, Cherokee students were fortunate in hearing Miss Freeman speak last week on the subject "Refrigeration." In her talk, she pointed out the benefits of a good ice-box and how food is affected when kept in a poor one. Some of the point which Miss Freeman stressed in her lecture were that a refrigerator should have good circulation, that food could not be preserved at a temperature over 60 degrees fahrenheit, that an ice box should be washed with cold water rather that warm, and that food should never be set out of the ice box very long. In the course of her lecture she pointed out that foods having a smell, such as cheese, should be kept on the top shelf of the ice box, so as not to transfer it to the other foods. This information was gladly received and greatly enjoyed by the students and teachers. Mr. Westover Enjoyed The students had a great time while Mr. Westower entertained with some very clever stunts and tricks in auditorium, Wednesday, February 6, Mr. Westower came to Cherokee last year and is a great favorite with everyone Cherokee is eagerly anticipating his next visit. Pictures of Mount Vernon and Washington, D.C. adorn the bulletin board in honor of our famous presidents, Washington and Lincoln, whose birthdays are this month. This was a project of the Student Council of last semester. The Cher-O-Key _______________________________________________________ SPORTS Girls and boys alike are preparing for their basketball tournaments.

March 15 Basket Hall Final (Double-Header) April 5 Annual TrackMeet May 17 Baseball Final _________________________________ Indian Summer A silken curtain skies, And half conceals from pensive eyes The bronzing tokens of the tall; A calmness broods upon the hills, And summer's parting dream distils A charm of silence over all. The stacks of corn, in brown array, Stand waiting through the tranquil day, Like tattered wigwams on the plain; The tribes that find a shelter there Are phantom peoples, forms of air, And ghosts of vanishing joy pain. At evening when the crimson crest Of sunset passes down the West, I hear the whispering host returning On far off-fields, by elm and oak. I see the lights, I smell the smoke, --- The Camp-fires of the Past are burning. _____________________________ HUMOR Miss Graham: Do you think it is correct to say, "He summers in the country?" Howard Davis: Why not? You can say, “He falls in the mud" or "he springs in the water." _______________________________ History teacher: What is meant by the “Spoils System?" Paul Dowd: Well, Jackson gave his friends positions and it spoiled them. ________________________________ The class composition was on "Kings" and this is what one boy wrote: The most powerful king on earth is Wor-king, the laziest, Shir-king, one of the worst kings is Smo-king; the wittiest, Jok-king; the quietest, Thin-king; the thirstiest, Drin-king, the silliest, Win-king, and the noisiest, Tal-king ________________________________ Mr. Thompson: How did that aviator get killed? Mr. Meyer. He had a sudden sinking spell. Who’s Who Contest Section 8-I held a "who's who’ contest in home rome recently. Sally Fletcher, Gladys Cassel and Howard Davis took the lead. The winners in this contest have been placed on an attractive poster, which is on the bulletin board near the front entrance. The poster was made by Athlone Williams. _________________________________ �The Cher-O-Key _______________________________________________________ CLUB NEWS Students made their selection for second semester clubs Tuesday and attended the club of their choice Fliday.

The Cher-O-Kay is sponsoring a contest. This is absolutely something new in the line of a contest at Cherokee, The idea originated with the journalism club when the members were madely writing verse—or worse—to fill up the columns of the paper. Limerick writing became the rage in one short period. The club wants the students to join in the spirit of the hour. The person writing the best limerick involving the idea of Cherokee and "The Cher-O-Key" will receive an issue of every Cher-C-Key free until June. The contest is on. Limericks may be submitted to room to; for a period of one week, ending Friday, March 1st. The winner will be announced in the next issue of the Cher-O-Key. We submit the following limerick as an example of our art: We now have a president Bird; They say he's the very “last word" He's short but he's smart, Campaigns with art, He's Cherokee's president the third. ___________ EDITORIAL BOARD Editor-in-chief Ruth Wetherington Associate Editor Robert Cox News Editors Jean Pettay Takoohy Topakian Society Editor Martha Ruth Rathburn Literary Editor Robert Boggs Sport Editor Charles Rinehart Joke Editor Richard Marriman Circulation Donald Young Faculty Sponsor Miss Henderson Exchange Editor Bob Williams ___________________________________ EDITORIALS It has been brought to the attention of the administrative board at Cherokee that students have become careless in their use of the property of other people. This building, and its equipment, which is a monument to education in our city, has been given to all of us, not to any one of us. Nor is it ours alone, but it also belongs in part to the students who will follow us when we are in higher Institutions of learning. Will our future citizens at Cherokee wish to enter a defaced building, whose walls have been marted with pencils, whose exterior still bears the sign of dusty erasers, and whose desks are scratched and marred? These questions we should consider seriously when we feel inclined to make numerous little destructions that seem a part of our nature. Decidely we have the most beautiful building in the city. Let us strive to keep it “The School Beautiful" in its picturesque setting "The City Beautiful" ___________ Many interesting exhibits have been put on by the schools of Orlando at the Fair Grounds, Let s visit these on our holiday Friday The new staff of the "Cher-o-key" will be announced in the next edition.

Student Council Visits Auditorium The Student Council of Cherokee recently paid a visit to the oriando Municipal Auditorium at the invita. tion of Parson Webb. The council was shown the diferent parts of the organ there. The group was first taken down to the cellor where they were shown the motors that furush the power for the organ. Next they visited the rooms upstairs where the pipes of the organ are situated. Some of the pipes were larger and taller than a man and some as small as a little finger. The organ was played while the Council was in the small space around the pipes. Mr. Webb told the group that this is one of the largest and finest organs in this part of the South. It was pur. chased by the city of Orlando for $40, 000. The Council agrees that it is a wonderful organ and wishes that the whole school might see it. 7-3 Gives Program Section 7-3 presented an interesting auditorium program, Wednesday, Jan. uary 23--"The Family Album".

Editorial Board Editor-in-chief Ruth Wetherington Associate Editor Robert Cox News Editors Jean Pettay Takoohy Topakian Society Editor Martha Ruth Rathburn Literary Editor Robert Boggs Feature Editor Carolyn McKinnon Sport Editor Charles Rinehart Joke Editor Richard Marriman Circulation Donald Young Faculty Sponsor Miss Henderson Exchange Editor Bob Williams Editorials Students, what does a new semester mean to you? Merely that half a year is over and the thoughts that examinations are things of the past? Or does it also imply a new beginning a time when we should reflect upon our past weaknesses and then turn with courage and determination toward the future? In the most real sense, the “New Year” for Cherokee began Monday, January 28, we should be grateful for what the coming semester has in store for us, for many good things have been coming our way—a new curtain for the auditorium, a projection lantern for our very own use, new books for the library, awards and prizes of major and minor significance. Shall we live up to the opportunities thus afforded us? This is what the new semester spells most distinctly— opportunity. Let us then, with firm resolution, seek to strive and do and know, “forgeting the things which are behind and reaching unto those things which are before. The Mythology Club, of which Mr. Lewis is sponsor, has been reading old Greek and Latin stories and are now reading Scandinavian tales. Calendar Of Events Auditorium Feb. 6th, Section o-4, sponsoring Mr. Westover. 100 Books Rebound The Bookbinding Department of Cherokee Junior High School has recently returned to the Library over ico volumes of books which have been re-bound this year and made as good as new. In addition to the rebinding the department is equipped to label with gold letters these books so that a complete and usable book is put back on the shelves in place of those badly worn or completely dilapidated. Splendid board back magazine covers with leather laces are made in the binding also. It is estimated that the work of the department including the bindery of the yearly issues several of the best magazines saves the school several hundred dollars each year in addition to the educational and vocational training afforded scores of boys and girls of the community. Our Junior High Schools are among the few of the state to offer such a course and we feel particularly proud of the splendid record established by the high grade work produced. Miss Bernice C. Datson who has had special training in Colorado State Teacher's college under one of the greatest authorities in the country in this line of work has charge of the Cherokee Bindery Department. The librarian, Mrs. Meyer, especially appreciates the work of this book bindery since it enables her to keep the shelves meat and attractive with well bound books at all times. Club News Expression Club Gives Plays The Expression Club has had many good plays this year. “His Methodist Foot", and “Kill or Cure”, “The Unexpected Guest,” and “That Troublesome xmas Gift" are some that have been given. At a recent meeting of the club, a play called “Swimming Pool" was given, the cast being entirely of boy. The characters were: The Kid, Sammie Bethea; the Englishman, Harry Price; the Nut, virgil Bankston; the man, Allen Hage; the Sheriff, Jim Siemons. The play centered around the theme of hobo experiences, which were quite diversified. including both robberies and love at fairs. This was voted by the club as one of the best plays of the year. Art Class Completes Calendar The special art class, under the direction of Miss Margaret F. S. Glace, has this week completed a project in the nature of a Cherokee calendar for 1929.

Cherokee was handicapped in that three of her team were ineligible and she played six men against Memorial's nine. However, the game was played in good spirit between the two schools, and Cherokee commends the spirit of her team. Christmas Eve (Continued from page three) again, I'll stay here. Billie. All right.

The great musical event of the season will be staged tonight. Students have heard “Once in a Blue Moon" discussed so much that they will not want to miss the chance of seeing it. Those who have witnessed preliminary performances bear reports of a delightful entertainment, brim full of comedy, sparkling with romance, tingling with mystery, which is interspersed with brilliant choruses and solos. The setting is said to be both gorgeous and picturesque. [Illegible] ters around the theme of a young man, George Taylor, who substitutes for a college friend of his at a week-end party. While there, he falls in love with Silvia, his chum's boyhood sweetheart. One night during a dance a robery [sic] takes place. Suspicion turned on George who is forced to disclose his identity. Things look dark for him until—well, the end is too good to disclose. Come and see it. The all-star cast including such celebrities as Emily Hopkins, Mary Terhune, RobertaBarnett, Bina Joe Pickron, Jack Ferrell, [sic] Christmas Seal Campaign All over the United States there is being conducted the annual Christmas Seal Campaign, by the Red Cross. Last year Cherokee won the prize for selling the most seals of any school in Orange County. Students are hard at work again this year and Cherokee hopes to win again. The prize this time will be something amounting to sixty dollars, or perhaps that amount in cash, instead of the usual prize of a pair of scales.

Faith serene and invincible. Every worthwhile human achievement since has been in some measure based upon Faith. The professional man, the captain of finance and industry, the artist,the craftsman at his task --all need Faith to carry on successfully. Thus the true spirit of the Christmas Season is evidenced best by the expression of Faith in our fellow-men, and in the worthwhile things which have helped in our development. Merry Christmas (Edna Yacobian,7-7) “Merry Christmas, everybody!"

This is a question that challenges thought and has long been a topic of discussion by some of the leading educators of our land. In this issue, we offer you the literary efforts of some of our seventh grade students. Read them and decide this question for yourself. Surely you will agree with us that we have some potential authors, at least. A Prayer (Gloria white, 9-5 ) Lord, let me be a little kinder, Let me be a little blinder To the faults of my fellow students. Let me praise a little more. Let me be, when I am weary Just a little bit more cheery, Let me serve a little better Dear old Cherokee. When temptation bid me waver Let me strive a little harder To be all that I should be. Let me think more of my neighbor And a little less of me. Be merry, folks, ‘cause Christmas comes But only once a year, And when it comes it brings us all Gladness, joy and cheer."

Mary's kneeling by his side, Joseph keeps watch by the doorway, When within three wisemen glide. As the wise men kneel before Him, The Child's blue eyes open wide, And, with a smile of wonderous [sic] beauty He seems to bless those by His side, As upon that Christmas evening, The birth of our Christmas day. The Christ Child will bless us forever, And take our sins away. Mary's Child is gently sleeping In His Fathers home above, But He is a Child no longer, He's the Savior we all love.

A DIALOGUE "Goodness, I, have to take all of my books home this afternoon." "So do I, that horrid Bobby Jones who sits right behind me insisted on tapping lightly on his desk all during study period, and it worried me so that I could not get my mind on my work. "I did succeed in getting my math during study period today but as I was going through the corridors someone bumped against me so hard, that I drop ped my paper. Before I could pick it up, it had been trampled on by a dozen people." "Such people who always interfere with the right of others are not generally liked, are they?" No, nobody admires them or even thinks them smart. they only get themselves in had with the entire school. were these students talking about you? THE FRENCH CONVERSATION CLUB The French conversation club is get¬ting an introduction to the French language and learning a number of French phi aces in common use JACK KLINE HAS A BIRTHDAY PARTY Jack Kline has had a birthday—and a party! And such a party as you have never seen! You see, it was giv¬en to him by Student Council, and that organization has a way of doing things to perfection. So, of course, Jack Kline's birthday could not be passed by lightly. He was successfully trans-ported to Olivia Park under the camo¬flage of a weiner roast. Imagine Jack's surprise when he found out `twas all for him. Imagine his eyes growing round with wonder when a big brown frosted birthday cake was brought forth. But the wonder grew when he tried to cut the cake, for somehow it prooved too much of a struggle for Jack's delicate physique. After tug¬ging determinedly for a while, Jack grew snspicious. He scraped off the luscious looking icing and found—a wooden cake! Then, 'tis said, that Howard Davis made a grab for some of the icing, and discovered it was soap suds flavored with chocolate. After a good laugh at the joke, the Council brough forth a real birthday cake, and Jack's birthday was celedrated in an honest-to-goodnese way. MEMORIAL PRESENTS PLAY The music department of Memoral presented a one-act muscial comedy, "The Family Physician," in our audi-torium on November 17.

Once three fair Indian maidens, Daughters of Chief Watosa, Wandered from their tribal village, Wandered far into the fores:. So 7-5-)wandered, gathering flowers, Laughing gaily as they wandered, Miles away from their dominion, All unheeding of the disforest. Suddenly from behind a boulder Rushed three hears, huge. ferocious, While with screams loud and piercing Fled the maidens with their flowers. Then the maidens swiftly fleeing Saw a rock before them towering. Quickly climbed they to its summit; But the bears climbed, never pausing. In despair the maidens halted, Watched the bears come ever closer, Fell upon their knees in terror, And t he spirits heard them pleading t' When the bears neared the summit, Then the spirits showed t•wir power—Made the rocks swell, grow hher Till they towered o'er the tree tops. Then the three bears in their climbing Weaker grew, their ever weaker, Till exhausted by their struggle Fell they on the rocks beneath them So the maids with great rejoicing Made long ropes from their flowers. Holding to them, reached earth safely, Hastened to their tribal village.

Vol. I, No. 1 November 9, 1928 One Cent Mr. Grover Addresses Student Body. Mr. Grover, Professor of books at Rollins college, returned to Cherokee Wednesday, Nov. 7, to address the subject of "Education." Mr. Grover was warmly received by the students as an old friend, for he addressed us last year on the subject of "Books." In speaking of the importance of education to the success of the individual, Mr. Grover cited Herbert Hoo¬ver as an example. "Eighty per cent of the names in "Who's Who" have a college education," he said. "Every day in high school is worth $25 to each pupil, while a college education adds $55 a day to a person's value." Mr. Grover then traced the growth of public school education in America, and pointed out its tendencies. A very interesting feature was a copy of an old New England primer and horn book used in the earliest American schools. Percentages for First Period High. Grades for the first six weeks of the school year have been averaged together and the following results were obtained: A's 8%, B's 28%, C's 39%, D's 14%, E's 5%. It will be noticed that more pupils received A's than E's. More pupils received B's than D's. Fewer people got C's than they ordinarily do. Usually the percentage of C's is about 44 %. This shows that a healthy condition exists, for most of the pupils are working hard Journalism Club Reads Rare Papers Jean Pettay, of section 9-2, recently brought several old papers to school which were of great interest to the Journalism Club. One was published at the time of Lincoln's death and gave a vivid account of the assassination. This edition also contains news of the Civil War. Another is the New York Herald for April 25, 1856. This issue contains a variety of news, ranging from "most horrible murders" to "great balloon ascensions." A most interesting copy is the Saturday Evening Post for June 16, 18¬28. It is in the form of a paper instead of a magazine. The print is very fine. A rather interesting and amusing part of the Post is a collection of very dry jokes relating to the experiences of theEarl of Marlborough. In 1828, it seems to take two paragraphs to tell what could be told in two lines in 1928. 7-1 Wins P T A Attendance Picture Section 7-I has for two consecutive months received the picture offered by the P T A to the section having the largest percentage of parents present at the monthly meeting of this organization. The seventh grade this year seems to be taking the lead in nearly all of our school activities. We wonder if the eight and ninth grades are going to accept the challenge offered by Cherokee's newest class? EDITORIAL BOARD Editor-in-chief Ruth Wetherington Associate Editor Robert Cox News Editors Jean Pettay Takoohy Topakian Society Editor Martha Ruth Rathburn Literary Editor Robert Boggs Feature Editor Carolyn McKinnon Sport Editor Charles Rinehart Joke Editor Richard Marriman Circulation Donald Young Faculty Sponsor Miss Henderson EDITORIAL The editorial staff of the Cher-O-Key salutes the student body. We since the opening of school. Billy greet you confidently- confident that our undertaking will meet with your approval and confident that you give us your hearty support. We offer no, apologies for beginning on a small scale, for we believe that our modest beginning of today will culminate in a tomorrow full of glorious achievements on the part of Cherokee’s journalist. In compiling this and future editions, the staff has but one object in mind- to give wholesome publicity to Cherokee. To accomplish this objective, to give her the most complete and adequate publicity, we solicit the aid of the entire student body. We urge a continuance of your reputed spirit of co-operation. Boost your paper, boost your school, and let us all strive to make Cherokee’s newest enterprise a complete and notable success. AN APPRECIATION The staff of the Cher-O-Key wish to take this method of thanking the printing department and typing club for their splendid co-operation in making our journalistic venture possible. While the paper largely represents the efforts of the journalism club we wish the student body to know the share that these two departments are taking in our publication. We sincerely appreciate their support and willing aid. CALENDAR OF EVENTS Monday, Nov. 12: Armistice day. Holiday. Wednesday, Nov. 14: Auditorium program sponsored by section 7-7. Wednesday, Nov. 21: Auditorium program with section 7-2 in charge. MERIT LIST FLUCTUATES IN NUMBERS WEEKLY Merit cards have rivaled the Wall Street stock markets in fluctuation since the opening of school. Billy Tyree was the first student at Cherokee to receive a merit card this year. A week later, Ruth Wetherington received the second. Since that time, the awards have been steadily increasing in numbers. These cards are given weekly to some students who have attained a high excellence in scholarship. The following students have received merit cards during the week of Oct. 15-19: Dorothy Cuthberson, Mary Terhune, Ormond Powers (2), Billy Berst. Week of Oct. 22-26: Barbara Parker, Esther Hadeck (2). Helen Arendt, Roberta Barnett, Virginia Copeland, Effie Mc Gormack (2), Clifford Haughton, Billy Tyree, Irvin Marchand, Edna Parker, Newelle Clark, Howard Davis, Winifred Berst, Sara Harell, Harriet Ravencroft, Cecil Keith, Edna Hinchey, Maxine Fugate, Shan Kazarosian. On Wednesday, Oct. 31, there was an unusual situation; there were no merit cards for the preceding week. ROBERTA BARNETT SUBMITS BEST ESSAY Last week the Florida State Dental Association offered a prize of five dollars and a second prize of two dollars and a half to the ninth graders who were able to write the best compositions on the subject, "The Teeth in Relation to General Health." In Cherokee, the ninth grade students wrote their compositions under the direction of Mrs. Benton and Miss Mitchell, the English teachers. Roberta Barnett, of section 9-2, wrote the composition which was chosen to represent Cherokee; it was sent to the contest headquarters at Miami. NEWS ITEMS Ruth Wetherington of 9-3 and Shahan Kazarosian of 9-3 have made our art poster in the auditorium this year Due to the fact that Harold Hughston captain of the sergeants, has moved from Orlando, it was necessary for the council to eiect a new one. Sammie Bethea was chosen by a unanimous vote. The enrollment of the school year of 1928 has already increased from 450 in September to 495 at the present date. New pupils are entering almost daily and there is little doubt but that Cherokee will soon have as many as last year. Many of the sections are completely filled now. Cherokee has already prepared a series of auditorium programs for the year, so we are assured of having some that are interesting, entertaining, and spicy. Good ones have already been put on by sections 9-1, 8-6, 7-1, and 9-6. The Girl's Glee Clud has also lent its aid, by presenting a one-act musical comedy. SOCIETY AT CHEROKEE The fall season has been a very busy social time for the Cherokee students. Nearly every section has already engaged in some sort of social activity during the past seven weeks. Parties have been enjoyed by twelve sections, and there have been nearly an equal number of picnics. Olivia Park seems to have taken precedence over other places as a picnicking ground, and the Hallowe'en note has been dominant at the parties. The faculty have also had their share in social activities. Besides being privileged to act as sponsors at the student socials, they have had three distinct affairs of their own. Toward the end of September, Mr. and Mrs. G. S. Thompson entertained the Cherokee teachers at a picnic at Olivia Park. Miss DeLaney and Mr. and Mrs. Park were special guests at this time. The Cherokee faculty bridge club has held two meetings thus far. NEW RULING HOLDS STUDENTS IN CHECK. A new ruling, recently passed by the Board of Education, has resolved that students be excused from schools only on account of illness or for other serious matters. This ruling was passed pecause it has been increasingly noticed by the teaching force that the schools are endangered by the constant calls from different outside sources that students be excused from their classes. This, it was decided, is seriously damaging to the school system, in that interferes with systematic classroom procedure. The new ruleing purposes-to check these too frequent outside calls. SPORTS Due to the absence of the coach the major sport for boys, which is soccer, has been delayed. However, every section has organized a team. A tournament is now being conducted. It is an elimination contest. The loosers will play all other loosers and the winners all other winners. New Rules Regulate Eligibility for Sports. In keeping with some of the fundamental assumptions relative to sportmanship training and after several years of experimentation, the physical training teachers of both Junior High Schools and the Director of the schools have arrived at the following regulations: Eligibility: all pupils earning a mark of C— or above in all regular four or five hour courses and Health shall be eligble to compete in the inter-class tournaments and inter-school contests. Ineligibility: Pupils falling below the standard set above shall remain in-eligible to compete in such contests for a period of six weeks following the declaration of such ineligibility. Mrs. Harrell, president of the P.T A., recently awarded section 9-I the prize for getting 100% of their parents to join the P.T.A. The prize was a wall flower vase. Billy Davis, President of 9-I recived in the behalf of the class. The entire school is glad to see Mrs. Meyer back again, after her illness of last week. Humor Startling discoveries brought to light as a result of recent tests: A fish can swim in water because he holds his breath. A pirate is a free government where the people make their own laws. A smuggler is a government where the king rules. Before a person can become a resident of the United States, he first has to become civilized. Cherokee Observes Temperance Twenty states celebrated temperance day on October 31, carrying out the mandatory state law that the schools observe this subject. Mr. A. M. Meyer was the speaker at the Cherokee observance. He stated that temperance in a special phase of citizenship. The school is the big business of America. One million teachers and z8 million students are engaged in the schools. This means that one fourth of our population is engaged in teaching or learning. The aim of the schools is to teach students to be citizens and not subjects. To do this, they must master temperence. "The student who is unable to control his thinking or acting", he said, "is intemperate. Citizens who are temperate are builders rather than destroyers of character." "What to do with your nickle?" Buy two apples in the lunch room for two cents each. Then spend the other penny for a "Cher-O-Key." Gertrude Ginsberg left us last week to take up her residence in New York City.

Postcards--Florida Elks, Benevolent and Protective Order of Postcards--Florida Community centers--Florida Buildings--Florida Courthouses--Florida Description Postcard posted February of 1919 that shows Central Avenue (now Central Boulevard) at the corner of Court Avenue. Pictured is the Elks Club, as well as the intersection of Central and Orange Avenue. The Orlando Lodge of the Elks was founded on June 28, 1907. The Lodge rented space, first from the Odd Fellows and later the YMCA, prior to purchasing the land at Court Street and Central Boulevard for $1,250. The building was constructed circa 1910 by the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks and cost $8,500 to build. It was made in the Modern Eclectic style with Bungalow elements. Orange County eventually bought the property and demolished the building in 1955, at the same time the 1892 Orange County Courthouse was being torn down in preparation of the building of the Courthouse Annex building. The ground where the Elks Building once stood was turned into a parking lot for the Courthouse. The Elks Club moved to 409 East Central Boulevard and remained there until a fire destroyed their lodge in 1969. Afterward, the Elks moved to 12 North Primrose Avenue. The parking lot was eventually redeveloped into Heritage Square after the demolition of the Orange County Courthouse Annex in the late 1990s. Heritage Square opened in 2000.

Bok, Edward William, 1863-1930 Postcards--Florida Botanical gardens--Florida--Orlando Bird sanctuaries Carillons--United States Description Postcard sent in 1938 showing the Magnificent Singing Tower at the Bok Tower Gardens, located at 1151 Tower Boulevard in Lake Wales, Florida. Edward Bok retired to the town of Lake Wales, located south of Orlando. Bok set out a plan to establish a natural garden and bird sanctuary where people to visit to quietly enjoy nature. He engaged Frederick Law Olmstead, Jr. to design the grounds and asked architect Milton B. Medary to design and build a carillon tower. Lee Lawrie, a noted sculptor from New York, designed the elaborate marble sculpture that adorns the tower. Work was completed in 1928, and on February 1, 1929, President Calvin Coolidge dedicated the Sanctuary. Edward Bok died less than a year later in 1930 and was buried at the foot of the tower. The tower and the carillon housed inside is Bok Tower Gardens' most distinctive feature.The carillon consists of sixty bells, ranging in size from sixteen pounds to just under twelve tons. The bells are played like an organ with the keys connected to the clappers of each bell. Bok Tower has had only three regular carillonneurs in its more than seventy years. The Sanctuary's first carillonneur was Anton Brees, serving as the only carillonneur from 1928 until 1967. Milford Myhre has been the resident carillonneur since 1968. William De Turk has been the assistant carillonneur since 1993. De Turk is also the librarian of the Anton Brees Carillon Library, which is reportedly the largest and most comprehensive carillon library in the world. Creator Barnhill, E. G. C. T.

Title Bird's Eye View Showing Elks Club, Court House and Eola Lake Postcard Alternative Title Elks Club, Court House and Eola Lake Postcard Subject Orlando (Fla.) Postcards--Florida Orange County (Fla.) Clock towers Business districts Courthouses--Florida Buildings--Florida Elks, Benevolent and Protective Order of Lakes--Florida Description Postcard showing the Victorian-style Orange County Courthouse with Lake Eola in the background. The streets are Main Street (present-day Magnolia Avenue) and Central Avenue (present-day Central Boulevard). The Orange County Courthouse was constructed in 1892 and its cornerstone was laid on January 15, 1892. The architect was A. S. Wagner and the general contractor was the W. C. Green Company of Chicago, Illinois. The red brick, three-story building, which cost $57,000, was built in the Gothic Revival style with a 80-foot high clock tower. The clock and bell were provided for by W. C. Sherman, a local businessman who raised several thousand dollars for the project. The clock mechanism was manufactured by Dent, London, founded by Edward John Dent, the company which made the Big Ben clock movement in London, England. The bell in the tower weighed 1,500 pounds, was tuned "F", was selected by local musician Harry Newell, and as of 2011, is on display in the lobby of the Orange County Courthouse. The Orange County Courthouse occupied the building until 1927, when a new primary courthouse was constructed next door. Afterward, it was used for Orange County offices. On July 30, 1957, the building was condemned and then demolished on December 30, 1957. A new Orange County Courthouse Annex building was constructed on the site. In the late 1990s, the Courthouse Annex was demolished and replaced with an urban park called Heritage Square, owned by Orange County. The gray building on the right is the McEwan Clinic, located at 100 East Central Boulevard, which was constructed in 1911. The original owner was Dr. John Singer McEwan. The building was designed to be Orlando's first public hospital. A third story was added circa 1920 to make a total of twenty hospital rooms. Apart from being a hospital and clinic, it was also the Florida Public Service Corporation, later the office of the Florida Gas Company, clothing stores (Artistry), and a 7-Eleven. As of 2011, it is the Central Station Bar. Across the Main Street from the Courthouse is the Orlando Lawn Bowling Clubs grounds. Source Original 5.5 x 3.5 inch color postcard: C. T.

Buildings--Florida Library Buildings--United States Postcards--Florida--Orlando Libraries--Florida Orlando (Fla.) Description Postcard showing Albertson Public Library, formerly located at 101 East Central Boulevard in Orlando, Florida. Construction began in 1922 and the library opened in May of 1923. The City of Orlando had the library built after Colonel Charles Lewis Albertson donated his personal 12,000 to 15,000 volume book collection to the city. His condition was that the city build a home for his books. His collection was estimated at the time to be worth $100,000. The architect was well-known Murray S. King. The library was built in the Neo-Classical Revival style and took up about half the city block between Rosalind Avenue and Magnolia Avenue. The other half was occupied by the grounds of the Orlando Lawn Bowling Club. The building had two stories with a partially sunken first floor. It was Orlando's first regular public library. When the library opened, it had 21,000 volumes, and by the year's end it had increased to over 30,000. The Albertson Public Library was demolished in 1965 and the Orlando Public Library was built on the same lot in 1966.

Postcards--Florida Business districts Courthouses--Florida Buildings--Florida Elks, Benevolent and Protective Order of Description Postcard showing Central Avenue (now Central Boulevard) at the corner of Court Avenue in Orlando, Florida. It shows the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks Club, as well as the intersection of Central and Orange Avenue. The Elks Club building was constructed circa 1910 and demolished circa 1955. The cost of construction was $8,500 and the architecture was designed in the Modern Eclectic style with Bungalow elements. The Orlando Lodge of the Elks was founded on June 28, 1907. The Lodge rented space, first from the Odd Fellows and later the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) prior to purchasing the land at Court Street and Central Boulevard for $1,250. Orange County eventually bought the property and demolished the building at the same time that the 1892 Orange County Courthouse was being torn down in preparation of the building of the Courthouse Annex building. The ground where the Elks Building once stood was turned into a parking lot for the Courthouse. The Elks moved to 409 East Central Boulevard and remained there until a fire destroyed the lodge in 1969. Afterward, the Elks moved to 12 North Primrose Avenue. The parking lot was eventually redeveloped into Heritage Square after the demolition of the Orange County Courthouse Annex in the late 1990s. Heritage Square opened in 2000.

Title Sanford Baseball Collection Description Sanford entered the world of professional baseball in 1919 with the formation of the Class D Florida State League. In its inaugural season, the Celeryfeds won the first half pennant, finishing in a tie with Orlando for the best overall record. Although the league folded in 1928, it was revived in 1936, and once again included a team from Sanford called the Lookouts, which was part of the Senators family of clubs. This struggling team finally turned around when they acquired former Major League star, Dale Alexander, as manager and first baseman in 1939. In over 80 years of Florida State League history, no team has ever matched their .737 winning percentage that season. The next season, the Sanford Seminoles emerged as the city's baseball team.

Located less than a mile from Historic Downtown Sanford, Sanford Memorial Stadium now stands next to the original site, which was built in 1926. Many Major League stars have played in the stadium including Babe Ruth, Jackie Robinson, Willie Mays, Tim Raines, and David Eckstein. Sanford Stadium is the location where Jackie Robinson first took to the field in 1946 to play baseball as a member of a white Class AAA International League Team in Daytona Beach, Florida, which was partnered with the Montreal Royals. By the time Robinson took the field, however, the crowd ended up booing him off before he could play. The police chief had actually threatened to cancel the game if Robinson took the field.

The hotel extended all the way from Firstst Street to Commercial Street and was the center of the city's social and political life. Rates for a room in 1884 ranged from $15 to $20 per week. The 1887 fire came very close to the Sanford House, and it was feared that sparks would add it to the destruction. What saved it were wet blankets which were draped from the roof and windows. The Sanford House Hotel was torn down in May of 1920.

The building pictured behind the companies is believed to be Sanford Fire Department, the city's first fire station. On September 20, 1887, the Great Fire of 1887 broke out and burned for two days, due to the city's lack of adequate fire equipment. The fire destroyed a significant portion of the business district and the City of Sanford responded by increasing its fire protection measures, improving water pressure, and constructing numerous fire hydrants.
