Slagle on South Florida avenue has been awarded to Marshall & Sanders, who will soon begin work thereon. Mr. Slagle left last night for Salem, Ohio, prep. atory to closing up his affairs and returning here to make this his per- manent home. PLAY LAST NIGHT WAS A DECIDED SUCCESS If Lakeland theater-goers had any misgivings as to the ability of the Shakespearian players appearing at the Auditorium last night, these were quickly dispelled at the very introduction of the play, for one could not but recognize that real artists were depicting the various characters in that grand production, “The Merchant of Venice."” Not only was each performer all that could be desired, but every de- tail of costume, scemery, etc., was carried out to the minutest detail, making one almost imagine they were in Venice. Speaking of the scenery and costumes, they were in- deed handsome, the men in velvet and satin attire and the women in their lovely gowns adding much to the success of the play. Mr. D'Oize, as Shylock, portrayed this difficult character with the skill of a real artist, while he was splen- didly supported by Miss Flagg in the role of Portia. Each of the per- formers did well and should they | return at a later date to give Ham. | 1et, as they now contemplate doing, they will be greeted with a crowded | house. | MISS RETNOLDS TALKS | INTERESTINGLY OF COM- i ING SEASON'S STYLES i Rl | Miss Minnie Reyunolds many !1’1‘1«:nvlh and patrons will be glad to | ! learn that she is in her “shop” | again, after several weeks spent in | the eastern markets. Speaking of the coming season, | Miss Reynolds is very enthusiastic, | claiming that the goods shown in : the east are smarter and more pleas- : ing to the eye than ever before. Her purchases include all the new au. thentic styles that dame fashion has | decreed for coming season both in ‘millinery and dress fabrics. | Hats for early wear will be | small, sailor effect, poke effect, | turned to the back, also hats with coft erown seem to be the prefer- ence. Plushes, velours and velvets are the most promising fabries for | shapes. Miss Reynolds has brought on | smart tailored hats from the most | exclusive makers in the country, ! among these, Castle, Rhodes, Fisk, and Elzee stand out prominently. Miss Reynolds has secured the services of Miss Sadie Davis of Bal- timore, who will have charge of her trimming room. Miss Davis is now |ln New York collecting all that is new in millinery. Speaking of dress materials, most fabrics have a clinging effect. Brocades, silk ratine, crepe de chene, crepe meteors and fancy crepes of all kinds are shown extensively. 1163 PRIVATE SCHOOL TO OPEN school reopens Monday, Sept. 8.

If the game had been continued it would have no doubt gome into extra innings, as both pitchers were going good, and the players on both teams were playing perfect ball Al- though Shaw, pitching for the visi- tors, was hit lightly, Wallace, pitching for Lakeland, kept his hits well scattered, and was very strong in the pinches. The score was as follows: HRE Lakeland ... 00000000—4 0 2 Plant City... 00000000—6 0 1 LABOR DAY COMMITTEE THANKS THOSE WHO ASSISTED The following resolution was passed by the committee who was in charge of Lakeland’s very success- ful Labor Day celebration.
