- ¥ this section which we believe to be equally well adapted to the culture of 'r:»lury that may be bought at $100 down as a fair basis of calculation that the same money that would es- tablish a mn on a farm in the older States would situate him similarly in Florida; that is, it would purchase him land similarly located as to prox- imity to road or station, and of equal cr greater revenue-producing capac- ity.

SMITH PAYS HIS RESPECTS TO THE KNOCKER | Lakeland, Fla., Nov. 27th, 1911, Evening Telegram, I would like to ask some of the citizens of Lakeland to stop for a mwoment and think, what would be the consequence to Lakeland if every real estate dealer in the city should close his doors and walk out of the Lusiness today. Who would look af- ter the interests of the home-seek- er, who would know where to find him a suitable location, who would know what properties were for sale, who would go to the livery stable and hire a carriage at his own ex- pense and haul them around the coun- try and try to interest them im it? How long would it take a home seek- ¢r to find all of the property that is tor sale, if he had to get his informa- tion from the class of people who live here and stand on the corners of the street and warn these people against the real estate dealers, | |y 1 Indeed, it would surprise you to know who is doin this. There are some people here who are regarded as decent whom we can name, who make it a business to slander every real estate dealer in the city, and ye: pose as decent people. I know one wan who has his property listed with nearly every dealer in the city, and time warns the home- at the same to steer clear of the dealers. ceckers P A+ i < B ENCE OF THE COLLEGE WOMAN In Address Last Night Dr. Snow Fa-| vors Woman's Higher Education. Houston, Tex., Nov. 30.—Saying that each school of higher learning Las its distinctive type of excellence, which to an extent is embodied in each of its graduates, yet that these graduates also have a noticeable re- semblance in their common ideals, Dr. L. F. Snow, of Aurora, N. Y., de- livered an address before the South- ern Educational Association here to- pight on the subject, “The Ethical Significance of the College Woman." The speaker declared that in Am- erica college education for women was not an accident but a result; that the peculiar type of education called collegiate was for women mere- ly the culmination of a process in the development and organization of her powers in her groping, blind effort to adapt herself to the changing con- ditions of our ever increasing com- plicated civilization.” Dwelling upon the expansion of the i1 tellectual horizon for women Dr. Snow said: “However confusing the the higher edacation o} wonten the tendency to accord them | the opportanity for deveicpment has debates | | concerning ! ”“1"""' ”1.‘ hot days of last summer, [ (12808 are the: [ocalitios whird (Uie il s’ tae JOlNc Wt IRt '\"4"1“ il “”l:l..‘:;lxll;i‘m.l\g.l;;l)’:«lul.‘.fuxf?uf“ ; T g ‘ SE S i cet o reeults, wad consequently the | Such tactios are o cowardly »hiul) in i il "‘ e “‘ | nle :.:: it than. when e cussed tomif e L profits ate made. 1““ LI 0 s JCH “'w o1 t enier fnto o at the time Hamed @0 we are soing | mederate wis L gl ”:} WO e mi By SRR SR “vmi » a8 a strange o) ;('»—i in i L e eE ahy Ginoie [ canes the seed of all Kinds ok ail the real citate dealers of ! ‘ i i T o | e ahiaman Lol vertation to goeninate in the soll ‘ Lakelavd ia this underhanded, vnwr '\-( L “j' i l ““i‘_" a [ b wereed and o come to mat ardly way, yeo it has it's effeet, and 1Im.4 ;,'I'r ]' 5 o 'm” "““)'_ i "1-Al i o _ i [ty ot o time when the goil in nive- is injurious to the business of thel’ et aftating t : "m““:‘ Erediny ‘ onths of the entire United States is honest man, who is paying his li-| PLIAL b ; % an tull this {s one ca Lo ciited and unprodactive that there coise and frying o make an houest \y e b Wihard 1 'Ii.'
