Wisconsin People Entertained By Park Hotel

	On Thursay evening, January 24, 1918 the Park Hotel tendered an
oyster dinner to all Wisconsin people living in Haines City, Dundee and Lake 
Hamilton, and all visitors from Wisconsin.
	The supper was enjoyed by everyone for which we can vouch, as we 
observed that nearly everyone had a second helping.
	The music rendered was fine and we were agreeably surprised to learn 
that "Silver Threads Among the Gold" was composed by a Wisconsin man.
	After the supper, O.T. Huie was voted president for the coming year 
and Mrs. G.W. Brown, secretary. The balance of the evening was devoted to 
general discussion of the respective merits of Florida and Wisconsin.  This 
discussion was punctuated by much laughter, as each one gave his experiences 
in Florida, and reminded Rev. Gutteridge of a store to the effect that 
someone entering Heaven observed in ____ containing many people. Upon 
inquiring he found that the ____ was for the particular use of all ____ 
coming from Florida.  Being somewhat surprised at this he inquired why they 
had to use a cage and was informed "that was the only way they had of keeping 
them there."
	Fleas and red bugs reminded H.W. Russell of the shortest poem on 
record, "Adam had-em".
	J. H. Yale stated that Wisconsin had a drawback greather than Florida 
ever had ... LaFollett.
	Florida climate has California outpassed by many points if the 
expression we heard prove anything.
	J. H. Yale and J. L. Moore, both of Wisconsin, discovered that the 
Fox River has two branches ... Upper Fox River and Lower Fox River.
	Several of the ladies proved their loyalty to Uncle Sam by bringing 
their _____.
	That the evening was enjoyed by everyone is proven by their barely 
leaving before the lights were cut-off. _____  ______ place of the next 
annual meeting will be announced later by the president and secretary.
	Wisconsin people present at supper and the place of their birth.
 Nearly all of these are now residents of Haines City, Dundee and Lake 
Hamilton.
