Down in Florida now--where the mellow warmth of Spring is in the air--where golfing is at its best--and the green sward of the fairways and greens are teeming with life--there is a combination in golf--a masterpiece in the realm of ultra-modern golf--a supreme de- light to the golfer--a combination without parallel--the Holly Hill 18-hole golf course of 6,623 yards and the Holly Hill 18-hole MINIATURE golf course at Davenport--Florida's Favored Winter Golf Resort. Eighteen magnificent holes--each one a feature hole--each one having its own peculiar characteristics--no similarity of fairways-- greens, traps or water hazards--each hole a masterpiece. From the time you tee off until you are down on the 18th green, there is an ever-changing panorama of unusually beautiful scenic landscape-- green rolling hills, sapphire lakes, countless verdant orange groves and tall, proud pines. There is a strong fascination in the "Dragon" hole, number two of the course--all others with equal appeal---greens that are not flat, but undulating, fast and sporty--traps that make the game more fascinating and water hazards with a real, sporty touch. Another 18 holes--MINIATURE golf course of 270 yards on the Holly Hill Inn grounds--unique in design and construction-- adapted to the putter, mashie and niblick--beautiful and sporty be- yond conception--you must see and play the miniature course to ap- preciate it--miniature curving traps, well-placed bunkers and water hazard--18 miniature, undulating grass greens--a supreme treat and test of sportsmanship--a rare diversion for the lady and gentleman golfer--circling among orange trees, palms and a sub-tropical variety of foliage and flowers--right at the front door of the Inn. The Holly Hill Inn at Davenport--a rendezvous of refinement and modern appointments--delicious food and pleasing service-- cheerful, sun-filled outside rooms--for rest and quiet--with refined evening diversion--bridge tables with congenial guests--just the place to make your visit a supreme delight. Write or wire for your reservations now. Come and enjoy this rare golf combination. HOLLY HILL INN DAVENPORT, "In the Hills of Orangeland," FLORIDA "Florida's Favored Winter Golf Resort"
