The house was almosl entirely re- modeled, and has been treated to a coat of paint, which has made it a thing of beauty and that it will be a joy forever-—or until the club is able to build a more commodious home— we have no doubt. On the rear of the club house a porch was built (s\'ur!m»kin;: the lake, and on one enq of this is a {room built for the purpose of hold- |ing the club’'s library. To pay for the expense thereby incurred, the ladies will call on the people of the city tomorrow and that everybody will be wearing a tag and the ladies each a smile, we feel quite sure.

The circumstances surrounding the death of Miss Wheeler ware very sad. She was teaching school there and about two weeks ago came here for medical treatment. Dr. Groover 'advised her mnot to return to her work, but to go to Griffin where she ‘could be with relatives and receive medical attention, her parents hav- ing recently moved to Sanibel is- Jand. Not realizing the seriousness of her condition, Miss Wheeler re- turned to Auburndale and continued teaching. She grew worse and Tues- day afternoon Dr. Groover was called to her bedside, but she was then in a dying condition and passeq away before a trained nurse could be ob- tained. The parents were notified when her condition grew so much worse but they were unable to reach her bedside until after she had passeq away. Miss Wheeler was a sweet, Chris- 'tian girl, beloved by a wide circle of friends, having been reareq since in- fancy near Griffin, where all who Jknew her loved her for her many admirable traits of character. The bereaved family have the sympathy of their many friends in their great bereavement.
