Who does not remember the thrill of having dinner in the great dining room overlooking Lake Osceola in the presence of the distinguished and great?

The meetings and luncheons of the Rollins Alumni Association are held here annually.

JI UST AS the Rollins Tars are speeding it up on Lake Mait- land let's speed up the contributions to the ROLLINS LOYALTY FUND so that we can reach our goal of $6,000 for 1929 by the closing date, . So FAR 153 loyal sons and daughters of Old Rollins have given $1,849.29 toward the goal of $6,000. A little speed and we shall sweep past the markers! Some- thing from Everyone Given Gladly! Make it $2, whatever you will, or what have you! PRESIDENT HAMILTON HOLT Says of the Rollins Loyalty Fund: "College men and women of America consider college edu- cation so necessary to the good of the commonwealth and so prohibitive in price that they are con- tributing to it annually through the Loyalty Fund j ust as they contribute to the church, to the commun- ity chest, and other good causes. "Education is the gift of society; and it is impossible for an individual to gain a college educa- tion without the aid of generations of society who have developed a college plan and educational ideals. "The alumni and former students of long ago adopted this plan. It is true and tried. I feel confident Rollins men and women will find it a very practical means of translating their loyalty into a living endowment."

'Enrich your holiday happiness, by giving to the Rollins Loyalty Fund. 1 Florida IVild Flowers (A popular handbook for flower hunters)

By MARY FRANCES BAKER (Mrs. Thomas R. Baker)

In this delightful book, FLORIDA WILD FLOWERS, Mrs. Baker (wife of the greatly beloved Rollins professor), a botanist of note in the southeastern United States, has accurately dscribed seven hundred of the more common and interesting wild flowers of Florida, and has made their identification very simple. Identification of these flowers has been difficult because heretofore the only sources of in- formation have been ponderous technical manuals of botany.

Florida offers the flower-hunter something new of interest on each day of the year, for Nature works tirelessly there in winter as in summer, transmuting dull earth and air and water into fragrance and color and beauty. In Mrs. Baker's book this fragrance and color is carefully classified, from the great mag- nolia, whose perfumed flowers are larger than one's hand, to the tiny wolffia, smallest of the known plants, whose entire growth floating in the water is smaller than the head of a common pin. Many excellent il- lustrations enhance the value and charm of the work. PRICE $3 PER COPY. Place orders through: ROLLINS COLLEGE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION WINTER PARK, FLORIDA
