I have been informed that he has been handicapped for teams to carry cn the good work, but it is poor economy not to have sufficient teams to keep his boss and hands busy while he is trying to make our streets something like respectable. Trust to Mr. Bussard and the city of Lakeland will never have to com- plain for want of economy or effi- ciency. Give him swipg enough and he will make our streets what they should be. CITIZEN.

In spite of the unfaverable weath- er a large number were present, ev- eryone in a jolly mood. Many games were played, among which was a forfeit game. When the forfeits were “sold,” Mr. T. L. Walker created quite a little fun by his wit- ty comments on the articles ‘to sell.” As a picnic had been planned, the refreshments consisted of a regula- tion pienic lunch. Those present were Misses Gene- vieve Morrow, Ruby Turner, Lillian Gain, Bertha Hughes, ‘Helen Shaffer, Ellie Kibbler, Kathryn White, May White, Nora Brooks; Messrs.
