According to my way of seeing it, we need at least two more build- ings equally distributed over the city. We should lay aside all per- sonal feeling, if we have any, in the matter, and take in consideration the welfare of the children, no mat- - !ter how high or low their station in life may be. I hardly think you can find a city anywhere that puts one thousand children on omne school yard, and then think of the size of this one. I had a talk with our superintend- ent and he says he could handle the schoo] to a better advantage separat- cd, which we will all have to admit, if we will only sound onrselves.

Now, as to the school, I truly hope you will use all your influence in the future as you have in the past to get these good people united on this all important question. 1 understand that all look forward to an unusually large immi- e SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One year ....-........-$5.00 Rix months ............ 2.80 Three monthe . 1.26 Delivered anywhete within the limits of the City of Lakeland for 10 cents a week, PFrom the same: office is issued THE LAKELAND NEWS a weekly newspaper giving o Te- sume of local matters, crop condi- tlons, county affairs, etc. Sent snywhere for $1.00 per year. e e Well, well—Ed Lambright is away up in Baltimore, and still the Tri- bune comes out regularly and even the editorial page is as good as usual.
