COLLECTING POLL TAXES. Mr. . M. Lanier, county tax col- leetor, is in Lakeland today and to- morrow for the purpose of collecting poll taxes. Those who have not paid their poll tax should see Mr. Lanier, red, white and blue, the school and with Mr. Wilder in Tampa for sev-|visitors assembled on the campus to witness the flag-raising. An enthusiastic young American, arrayed in the national colors, pulled |the string, and amid rousing cheers, ithe beautiful, silken folds were flung to the breeze.
