HERE TONIGHT | EVANGELIST WILLIS PREACH- ES OPENING SERMON AT | BAPTIST IN MORNING | | | Evangelist Bishop J. Willis of | Sumter, S. C., will preach the much enjoyed by alli pening sermon of the scheduled | choma. ‘wo weeks’ revival at the. First Baptist Church tomorrow morn- jing at 11 o'clock, according to the pastor. Rev. James S. Day. The final preliminary prayer service wes held last night in the {auditorium of the church at which time Mr. Willis stressed the im- sportan>e of every member being present at each service. It was j pointed out by the evangelist that “a real work of grace, a genuine revival, is not something that is worked up by human efforts but is the result of our meeting cer- tain condition laid down in the Word of God.” Mr. Cowell, who is in charge of the music, urged all the choir members to be in their places promptly at 11 o’clock tomorrow morning. An invitation was ex- tended to the other singers of the community to become a part of the choir on week nights. Pastor Day said concerning Mr. Willis, “I believe we have with us for this meeting a man who is go- ing to lead us to a great victory in one of ‘the most far-reaching !campaigns our church and_ this city has ever known.” = Mr. Willis comes to Key West as a seasoned evangelist with a record of upward of a hundred successful campaigns behind him, it is said. Before his conversion rearly 13 years ago, he was en- gaged in the clothing business in Sumter, S. C. Consequent upon his conversicn he felt called to the i gospel ministry and forthwith clos- ed his store and went to the Moody Bible Institute, Chicago, to prepare himself for his life work.

Key West parents were thrown into a panic last week when their, youngsters came home from! school with unsigned notes, bear- ing the tidings that their children prese the victims of ‘‘tracoma,” al very contagious disease of the. eyelids. Regardiess of where the Te-| sponsibility may rest for this! scare, the fact remains that those| responsible not only displayed a pitiful ignorance of the symptoms! of this dreaded disease, but they were also ignorant of the correct| spelling of this medical term. Feeling very much concerned about my child, who, witn scores: of others, was “excluded from school,” I took her to Miami where she was examined by Dr.; B. L. Whitten and his ociate, Dr. M. P. DeBoe, eye specialists of note. The following certificate was issued and signed by Dr. Whit- ten: “To Whom It May Concern: “This is to certify that I have examined Florence Boza for tra- choma and find no evidence of} this disease. I do, however, find alow grade conjunctivi © for| which I am giving her a prescrip-! tion. gned) “B. L. WHITTEN, 5 Asked if conjunctiviti: rious, Dr. Whitten replied. cidedly not.” Other questions and answers ex- changed were: “What is conjunctivitis what causes it?” “It is an irritation of the con- juntiva, or mucous membrane of the eyelids, caused by a minute insect.” “Is it contagious?” “Not necessarily so.” “Is it hard to cure?” “Tt requires simple sistent treatment.” “Need the treatment be admin- istered by a doctor?” “With the two prescriptions I am giving you, so simple that any drug store in the world can fill it. you can cure it at home in a few weeks by simply following direc- tions.” With a smile, Dr. Whitten end- ed the consulation with, “I wouldn’t worry about the child’s eyes, I have the same thing my-! self.” I have in my possession a card from the FERA clinic advising me. to report to the clinie for instruc- tions to treat and cure the case of, trachoma in my family. In ex- change for this card, I offer the clinic a medical authority’s defini- tion of conjunctivitis, as given above. They will do well to add this informaton to their nomen- clature of diseases. To anxious parents, who wish to eure their children of conjunc- tivitis, I offer, free of charge. prescriptions given me by Dr. Whitten. In my many travels in Latin America, where numerous Asiatics reside, I have seen some cases of trachoma so pitiful and hopeless that blindness was fast setting in. We are striving to build up Key. West and to attract visitors to ou~ beautiful city. Wi'l such unfoynd- ed and ignorant propaganda help? J. A. BOZA, se- “De- and but per- Key West, Fla., 1401 Qlivia street, Feb. 28, 1936. !

He has fished in all parts of | the world, including the coast of Africa, India, California, Mexico, Cuba, Boca Grande other places, and declares that he has found more variety of fish, j more comfortable living quarters, and more real atmosphere at Pi- rates Cove, than any other place he has fished. He had an interesting experience H the other day, while fishing with: Capt. Nickle, on the “Admiral.” A line was thrown out for grunts in 18 feet of water, and a bone- fish brought in on cut bait from mullet. Mr. Phelps declares this has never been heard of before, as bonefish are always taken with hermit crabs. Mr, Phelps is also a well known hunter. It was after a return trip from Africa that he fished for! marlin in Cuba and found himself on the Mora Castle, returning to New York. He has many harrow-} ing tales to tell of that terrible digaster, but one of real interest to fishermen, Before leaving the harbor, he took from a refrigerator cut fish, and fished. from the promenade deck fcr tarpon, hooked eight and lended two, in the two hours be-| fore sailing. Mr. Peh'ps expects to return with some of his fishing friends latent in the season.
