SRR SRS A good band is a fine advertise- ment for any town, and is, besides, a source of much pleasure and sat- isfaction to the citizens. No one who attended the concert last night can doubt that Lakeland has a splendid prospect of having in a very short * time one of the best bands in the State. The progress made in the short time since organization, as evidenced by last night's perform- ance, is little short of marvelous. WELOAF W8S This paper would advise the peo- ple of Lakeland to do their Christ- mas trading with their home mer- tives, hut because we are convinced that their stocks furnish ample room for selection on the part of the most critical. There are stores in this city (and the advertisements of all cuch are in this paper) whose stocks would do credit to a much larger community, and afford every oppor- tunity for making suitable pur- chases at reasonable prices, There- fore, waiving all sentimental reasons, we counsel our people to trade at home, believing “that it will pay them from a strictly business stand- point.

It is the idea of the directors of the movement that the laymen and mine ister shall spend at least two days in each place visited. One point that is being stressed at state headguarters at this time is the importance of organizing the*move- ment in the small towns of the state, George K. Moody, the executive sec- retary for Florida, has worked ou! a plan under which churches in the smallest hamlets may organize fori the work on an effective and perma- nent basis, “It would be very « said Mr, Moody, "for the small churches to organize men's hrotherhoods and give them something definite to do. Take the male membership and split it into five divisions, about as fol- lows: “Social Service, “*Bible Study. ‘Kvangelism. “*Missions, “Boy's Work, “The social service division should sent out asy,” arrange reading rooms for men and g boys; the boy's work division would arrange mass meetings for the lads and other things to interest them and keep their minds on clean and right living; fon could arrange Bible classes for men in the Sunday-schools and so- cial gatherings for men; the sions division could see to the dis- tribution of missionary literature formulate and every-member canvass in the interest of the cause; work of the evaungelism division to make the Sunday eveun- the churches purely and an appeal to men better lives. On these occas evangelistic to live ious the laymen of the church shonlld Let one read the seripture les another pray, ete Under this division would also come the person al workers class, “1t would he vice, the easiest matter i world for all the small churches | of the state to inaugurate the work | with vast bhenefit to themselves anid | to the comunity at a whole. The| v.lllu of a more direct understanding m personal responsibility will make | itsell felt to the benefit of any com-, { munity.
