In the absence of the pres- ident, Vice President G. E. South- ard occupied the chair. The chief topic of interest was the approach- ing convention of the State Educa- tional Association and their enter- tainment here. Prof. Jones advises toons of Spanish moss. The recep- | Yorell, Misses Mary Groover, Vera |'D3t he expects about 800 teachers tion hall and parlor were in green and pink, the lights being prettily shaded in pink, casting a soft glow over the prettily gowned guests. Receiving on the front porth were Miss Cardwell and Mrs. Barnwell Fuller. Mrs. T. L. Cardwell pre- sided over the punch bowl, serving each guest with a glass of the re- freshing beverage as they arrived. Receiving in the reception hall were Miss Groover, Mrs. Catherine Card- well and Mrs. R. R. Sullivan. Appropriate music to the occasion was given on the victrola during the afternoon, which was much en oyed. Miss Rose Marie Smith, of Plant City, a gifted elocutionist, gave a reading which was splendidly ren- dered and enthusiastically received by the appreciative guests. After the reading, the gucsts were given slips of paper on which they were to make as many words as possible out of the names of the bride and groom-to-be, five minutes being the time given in which to form the words. Miss Margaret Southard was the winner of the prize, having 83 words on her list. The most important and most in- teresting part of ecvery shower is when the gifts are bestowed upon the bride-to-be, and as little Ruth Bryan and Dorothy Cardwell, dressed in pretty white dresses and pink ribbons, came into the parlor carrying a pink and white basket filled with mysterious packages, the asgembly settled down to enjoy a de- lightful half hour inspecting the many beautiful gifts of linen on which so much handwork had been wrought. Seldom has a bride eve. been remembered so lavishly as was Miss Groover, which is a pretty tes- timonial of the popularity of this charming girl. After the lovely array of gifts had been passed around and duly admired, a delicious luncheon was served, the hostess being assisted in serving by the girls who are to be Miss Groover's bridesmaids, Misses Vera McRae, Ruth Skipper and Ma- rie Smith, of Plant City. Miseg Cardwell’s guests on this oc- |, casion were Miss Groover, Mrs. W. R. Groover, Mrs. J. L. Skipper, Mrs. R. R. Sullivan, Mrs. T. L. Cardwell, Mrs. Barnwell Fuller, Mrs. E. L. Cordery, Mrs. Paul O’Doniel, Mrs. LAKELAND, MODEL HOST Lakeland did herself proud in her entertainment of the old Confeder- ate soldiers last week. Not a single detail was lacking that could cen- tribute to the comfort and entertain- ment of her guests during their three days’ stay within her, gates. The city authorities, the members of the Lakeland camp U. C. V., the ladies of Lakeland chapter U. D. C., the Sons of Veterang and the citizens generally, devoted them- selves to the comfort and pleasure of the veterans with a whole-souled hospitality that warmed the hearts of the ‘“old boys in gray” to the core, and the remembrance of which will remain with them until they “cross over the river to rest umder the shade of the trees.” McRae, Ruth Skipper, Rose Marie Smith, Hazel Williams, Mabel Drane, Heloise Bowyer, Leona Hayes, Hel- en Conibear, Margaret Southard, Laura Southard, Frances Wilkie, Julia Etta Patterson, Corinne Pat- terson, Ruth Bryan and Dorothy Cardwell W. C. T. U. Reception To the Teachers The reception given by the Wiom- an’s Christian Temperance Union, to the teachers, at the residence of Mr. Guy Toph, was a very enjoy- able affair. The teachers appre- ciate being drawn together in this social way and the parent who is ac- quainted with his child's teacher hag the advantage over those who are-not, in that there can be more perfect co-operation. More than fifty attended the reception. The program was short but interesting. Mrs. Peterman gave an enjoyable piano solo. Mrs. Wilson made a welcome speech, responded to by Prof. Jones. Rev. Patterson gave some interesting thoughts on ‘“Why Teach Temperance in the Public Schools.” A song, ‘A Saloonless Nation in 1920,” was sweetly sung by Gladys Turner and Helen Shaffer, accompanied by Mrs. Peterman. A very instructive talk on ‘“How to Teach Temperance” was made Mrs. Dr. Hanna. A game of feath- er blowing wag indulged in by the yvounger teachers. Divided names were then passed around and part- ners were hunted up for an ‘“egg contest,” beginning with the ques- tion “How should these questions be answered.” “Eggsactly.” Prof. Jones and Dr. Hanna will pass to the next g rade as they made 95 per cent as did several other couples. After this the refreshment commit- tee showed work well donc in the delicious chocolate, peanut butter sandwiches and home-made cake served. Miss Branner favored us with a splendid piano selection. We were very sorry none of the school board could be present. The W. C. T. U. wishes to thank Mr. and Mrs. Toph for their kind hospital- fity in opening their lovely home to us.

As a place of meeting the fine Auditorium could not have been improved; the receptions and the auto rides about the city and sub- urbs were greatly enjoyed by all, and the parade and review of th. 1,200 children of the city by the veterang was a scene never to be forgotten by those who witrressed it. The decoration of public buildings and private residenceg and the hand- some arch of “Welcome” spanning by | to attend and these will all have to be accommodated with board and lodging and such other entertain- ment as we may be able to offer. It should be distinctly understood that these teachers all pay their own ex- penges and our people who are able (to take care of any of them should at once get in touch with the secre- tary of the Board of Trade, with in- formation as to the kind of accom- modation they will be able to fur- nish, if rooms ,at what price; if board, the rate per diem or meal; if room and board, the same. These people will be here three days and disperse -several thousand dollars. Lakeland people who desire to profit by the convention must get busy and say what they can do in the matter so that Prof. Jones may have the information promptly for hig sylla- bus which must soon go to press. ‘This is no donation proposition, but strictly business. If you want any of it, please say so promptly. At Bartow yesterday the jury in the case of the State vs. George T. Spear returned a verdict of acquittal Yor the defendant. This case grew out of a personal Wdifficulty between Spear and T. L. Cardwell, about three months ago, in which Cardwell was wounded by the discharge of a pistol in the hands of Spear, the trouble taking iplace on the second floor of the Dickson building. The defendant was ably represent- ed by Rogers & Spencer of Lakelana, the prosecution being conducted by John W. Burton, district attorney, assisted by Judge Boswell, of Bar- tow. Lakeland And Her People Can’t Be Excelled, Says Vet W. A. Turkette, of Citronelle, writing to the Inverness Chronicle, hag the following to gay of the re- union and the treatment the Veter- ans received here: Being a participant of the gen- erous hospitality shown the U. C. V., at Lakeland, at the annual re- unions given in the various parts of our State, I wish to add my testi- mony to that of the many good ex- pressions which have already gone forth to the public as well as to the old soldiers who were not able to attend the reunion at Lakeland, so they may see or get a glimpse of the many good things they missed by mot attending. 1 believe your columns In the Chronicle are open to sprcad the good news and good deeds of all our Kentucky avenue, were exceedlngly'people in Florida, regardless of what handsome. And, last, but by means least, of the proceedings by the Evening Telegram was a source of much sat- isfaction to the veterans and their friends, and sustained the well- earned reputation of that excellent paper as being the best daily in the no, the full daily reports section of the State. Hence, I am taking the liberty to give a brief statement, since I saw Lakeland and her people, this being my fi rst trip that far south.
