The fair young representatives ofFrance had the greatest ovation untilthose of America came upon thescene. .Led by a trio, Miss BlairWoodrow as Columbia, marching be-

At 5:30 o'clock eighteen adorablelittle misses marched in twos fromthe north end of the square and stooddirectly in front of the bandstand.They were led by little Miss MaryFleming Rawl who was dressed as aboy in a gorgeous green kimona andcarrying the Japanese flag.

TROOPS EXPECTED

-- With Russia proving her army canagain strike telling blows the Ententeforces are apparently preparing toresume the offensive on the Westernfront. Notable activity is developingin Belgium. The Germans apprehendthe trend there and extraordinary ef-

forts of her airmen to ascertain whatis going on behind the lines is reflect-ed in official statemnts. Teuton air-men are having little success. Londonreports nine Germans put out of ac-

tion to one Britisher lost. The Prus-sian minister of war believes theBritish blow will come north of Arras,according to a statement made to theReichstag committee yesterday. Inthis connection is noted a British ad-

vance slightly on a six hundred yardfront in local action southwest ofHollebeke.

General Petain is bending every ef-

fort to keep the advantage in posi-

tions the French , now hold. The la-

test effort of the Germans to gaincontrol of a sector in the Aisne re-

gion, not only gained nothing, andbrought heavy losses, but the Frenchin counter attacks took the salientnear Cerny. -

pected to be in camp by July 15th.

PATRIOTIC PAGEANT

Celebration this Fourth of July thePrettiest Ocala Has

Ever-Seen- !

The Ocala Red Cross certainly de-

vised a most patriotic and appropriateway of celebrating the 4th in v thepageant which it gave on the publicsquare Wednesday.,

This fourth has set an epoch in thehistory of America and of the world.It is the first in the era set by Amer-ica abandoning her traditional isola-tion, which would now be selfish, andjoining the democratic nations of theworld in trying to secure the commonright of all men to "life, liberty andpursuit of happiness."

Could a moving picture of Wed-nesday's ceremony be shown in anycommunity in any one . of the strug-gling nations which are our allies, it'would have heartened them to seehow tlys typical American townchose from among its fairest girlsand prettiest little ones to most ap-

propriately express its sympathy forthem and its own devotion to the com-mon cause.

The square was thronged late Wed-

nesday afternoon. Not only wasOcala out in force, but hundreds ofcountry people came in to attend theexercises. At 5 o'clock, the membersof the band and the chorus were inthe bandstand, and people weregathered around by the hundreds onthe 'sidewalks and lawn, while thebeautiful new flag of the Ocala highschool on its tall staff floated over all.

The parade formed down on SouthMagnolia street and came marchingaround the sidewalks of the court-house square. . It was made up ofpretty girls, was the prettiest paradeever seen in Ocala, and was as prettyas could be seen anywhere.

First came a bunch of dainty littlemaidens representing Japan, the Sun-

rise Kingdom, which America tempt-ed from its seclusion of a thousandyears and ushered into" the light ofmodern civilization Nippon, the na-

tion which has proclaimed the Mon-

roe doctrine of the Mongolian race.Next came a squad of fair girls,

wearing the garb of Russia mightyRussia, that labored so slowly thruthe years toward the dawn only tostep more quickly than any other na-

tion into daylight.Then the pretty representatives of

Italy, where" democracy was crucifiedand recrucified thru the centuries, op-

pressed from abroad and betrayed athome, but rising at last triumphantas truth in spite of tyranny, supersti-tion and poverty into one of thenoblest of nations, and one nowworthily filling its place, in the far- -flung line that fights - for the rightsof humanity.

The fair young ladies that repre-sented Great Britain marched inthree squads first, for canny Scot-land, which despite its thrifty dispo-sition has created by bravery and de-

votion more romance than even stor-

ied Greece; then Ireland, whose hearthas ever ran away with her head;then sturdy England, within whosebcunds the very cornerstone of con-

stitutional government has been laid.Next came the girls who represent-

ed Belgium, the little hero, who pre-

ferred destruction to submission thetiny stone that ground to powder it-

self yet broke the cog in the Prussianwar machine that has made it limpever since; Belgium the orphan thatthe Allies are bound to cherish tillthey can place her in her home again.

And then France, America's firstally, dnd now her dearest friend, thebravest and most self-sacrifici- ng ofnations, ever ready to draw the swordfor what she thought was right andwithout any idea of reward. America
