The local team wili have charge of the floor work. —— Miss Pauline Nesbitt left last night for her home in Milledgeville, Ga., after a delightful month's visit in Lakeland, the attractive guest of her aunt, Mrs. J. M. Holland, and | sister, Mrs. H. M. Richards. Miss Nesbitt, visits Lakeland au frequent intervals and is always given a most | cordial welcome by her many | friends. . Mr. and Mrs. R. H. Rutherford have returned from a trip of severai weeks, a portion: af"which was spent in Atlanta, but the greater part in Tennessee. They report a very pleasant time, and business condi- tions generally good in the sections they visited, owing ‘to bountiful crops and good prices. Like all the summer wanderers, however, they declare themselves happy to be ian Lakeland again. Mr. F. M. Thomas of the Florida Publicity Service, was over last ev- ening from Winter Haven in his big “Lozier 8ix,” the car which will be used in his northern trip to adver- tise Florida. Mr. Thomas expects ; to start on this trlp in a couple of weeks. The scheme has attracted much attention, and will doubtless | bring much desirable publicity to the communities and sectiors repre-j’ sented. i Rain having fallen almost con-i tinuously today, it is impossible to | know at this writing whether it will be possible for Lakeland ana St. Petersburg to play this after- noon; however, if rain prevents the game, a double header will be played tomorrow afternoon between the same teams beginning at 2:15. Ev- erybody be on hand to root for Lakeland. H. S. Moreland, consulting en- gineer, from Lakeland, who recent- 1y visited Massachusetts to inspect the sand-oil road of the Cupe Cod country, was in Clearwater today, and leaves tonight for Tampa. ‘‘Just lhave to be there,” he said to the Sun man, “Because I am to be mar- ied this .evening.”’—Clearwater un.—The Telegram has been un- pble to get in communication with Ir. Moreland today and is there- ore unable to give the name of the bride. We have been asked by resident nglishmen to make an appeal to all patives of that country or others ho may fee] disposed, for contribu- ions of tobacco, pipes, cigarettes, te., for the British soldiers now ghting in France. We may not pprove of the use of tobacco in the bstract, but to these soldiers facing eath daily and enduring great ardships, it is said to be the great- 8t source of comfort’.

Bolton’s Mother I’ Against Shipping Immature Fruit —_— W. H. Mouser, sales manager for Chase & Co., the large packers and shippers of Florida oranges, grape- fruit and vegetables, has just re- turned from a nine weeks’ trip, dur- ing which time he visited the prin- cipal markets throughout the Unitea States and Canada, from the Pacific to the Atlantic. Mr. Mouser states that because of unsettled business conditions throughout the country, it is unsafe to anticipate high prices, but that from information secured during his trip, he believes it will be possible by wide and intelligent distribution jto market the Florida orange and | grapefruit crops with good results to the growers. He states that there is in Califor- nia vet to be shipped from 2,: 3,000 cars of late oranges, which is equivalent to about 1,000,000 boxes, and that the California oronges, al- though of good quality, are now sell- ing throughout the country at very reasonable prices—in fact, at low prices as compared with previous seasons. Mr. Mouser advises agninst the shipment of green or immature or- anges or grapefruit. With 2,500 to 3,000 cars of late oranges yet to be shipped out of California, as com- pared with only 1,000 cars of late oranges shipped*from California af- ter Aug. 15 (a month earlier) last year, it will be a mistake for Flor- ida growers to ship their cranges or grapefruit which are green or im- matu.e. It is absolutely necessary to create from the beginning of our season, a heavy consumptive demand for both Florida oranges and grapefruit. By giving the consumers good cating stock from the start, a heavy con- sumptive demand will resvit; other- wise, consumers will show preference for the late California oranges which of course are fully colored, possess good eating qualities and are obtain- able at reasonable prices. Chase & Co. have established sev- eral additional branch offices and are now represented vy experienced, competent and reliable [ruit and produce salesmen in about 100 dif- ferent markets throughout the Unit- ed States and Canada.

Richard Bolton, whose rel-l atives live in 1Ireland, has received a letter from his mother, from which We are permitted to make some ex- tracts that will be interesting to our readers as throwing some side- lights on the European war. Mr. Bolton has a brother on the firing line, an officer in the English army, of whose movements or fate he has no definite knowledge. He has just secured his address and written him, and though the direc- tions seem vague, the letter will probably find the soldier if he be alive. His address is given as “A. -+ commanding V section, Head- quarters No. Il Base, British Expe- ditionary Forces, France." With all “France” as his address it looks uncertain that a tiny letter will find him, though doubtless it will. Mr. Bolton's mother's lotter fol- lows: My Darling Boy: May and I were very glad to get your kind jetter and to know you are thinking of and praying for our brave men at the front. I am sending you Mrs. Bol- b ton's letter, dated Aug. 30. Since | then the Germans got near Paris, but the troops are all doing grand service, and we hear the Russians : sent a lot of troops through by, Scotland and England across to France, to make up numbers, as we | have ten Germans for one of the al- | lied troops. Oh, it makes me shml-l der to read the awful, cruel way the Germans treat the women and ! children. They went into one fight with Belgian women in iront, and | in another case took all the clothes' off a number of girls and degraded | them in the open square, Here we are fairly safe only for spies, and any day an air ship may throw bombs. Orders are in yester- day's papers that bright 'ights unl piers and shops are not to be Iet' shine now so as to show from above, | and we hear all people along the coast, Kingstown and Daltrey, are tc be ready to leave any time to allow of the protection of troops.

T. Eddins Wedded To Miss Nezzie Cason Last night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. K. McRae, Miss Cason of this city, and Mr. \W. 1. Eddins of Chesterfield, S. C., were united in the holy bonds of matri- & Nezzie mony, Rev. Funderburck, pastor of the Baptist church of Chesterfield, officiating . The lower floor of this spacious home was a bower of ferus, palms and cut flowers, and over the door- ways and windows festoons of trail- ing vines were graccfully arranged, the arch of pink vine under which the couple made their vows, complet- ing the beautiful scene. Promptly at 8:30 the bridal party descended the stairway to the strains of Men- dellshon’s wedding march, played by Mrs. T. I. Woods. First came the two attendants, Miss Mary Mec- Rae ang Mrs. Ruth Haile, a sister of the bride, followed by the bride and groom. The bride was dressed in a blue cloth coat suit, cape cffect, hat and shoes to match, while the groom was attired in conventional black. After the wedding, the guests, of whom there were over one hundred, were served with delicious refresh- ments of ice cream and cake. Sev- eral vocal selections by Mrs. O. T. Cason added to the pleasure of the occasion . The bride has been living here for the past year and is beloved by all who know her for her many lowlyI traits of character. The groom is the tax collector of his home county and a gentleman of fine characteristics. The happy couple left on the night train for Washington, D. C., where they will spend two weeks, after which they will make their home in Chesterfield, S. C. Strong-Miller Nuptials Miss Ethel Clare Miller, postmis- tress of Clay Center, and Mr. Wil- ber M. Strong, a former employe of the Peninsular Telephone Co. of Jacksonville, were married at Dade City Sept. The happy couple left on the night train for Jack- sonville where they will reside for the present. Their many friends here wish them all kinds of good luck. 9¢ e —————————————————————— governess (German) for a great many years, Last week a policeman called and asked to see her. Mrs. J. said, ““Oh, surely, you don't want her, or doubt her! She has been with us 30 years.” He said: I must—I can't go away.” The governess heard and said, “Oh, by all means * let him look through my things.” He did so and then said: ‘“Now, give me the keys of your boxes,” and she did so. Nothing was found, but he just felt the bottom of her bhox and a spring opened. He found letters 'und drawings of the coast to Grey- stones—some say also a bomb ready . She had becn giving information all these years and living as*a friend. I am not in love with Mr. Red- mond.
