Mr. A. K. Hall, advance azent for the Peg O' My Heart Co., ar- rived in Lakeland Saturday evening. In a conversation with Managegr Green, he stated that his show was doing wonderful business through Georgia, which goes to prove that an A No. 1 attraction like the Peg ‘show can draw the people no matter what condition the country is in. The seats are now on sale for this show Saturday, Dec. 26, matinee ang night. The fire alarm sounded a few minutes before four o’clock yester- day morning, a house recently occu- pied by colored people on Magnolia street between Kentucky and Ten- nessee avenues having caught fire. The house was already too far gone to be saved so the fire department played water on the houses adjoin- ing which had caught. The house burned belonged to Mrs. Lusk. Mr. and Mrs. Ferrand, who occupied one of the houses saved, wish to thank the fire department for their splen- did efforts in saving their home.

This includes ‘lectures, papers and addresses by some of the leading educators of this and other States. Within our own border, we have university and college men, high school principals and others, all co- laborers in a common course. Rep- resenting, as they do, the standard of efficiency in education we are glad to have them with us and that they have promised to speak to us during the various sessions of the convention. Education in the home and school, school discipline, some needed reforms ang improved meth- ods in general, will rorm the basis of their remarks. No teacher can well afford to miss a single session, laud patrons and friends of education +will find these meetings of incaleul, able benefit. ‘If the program was complete with these speakers, one would be amply repaid for a trip to Lakeland, but in addition to our home talent (and we refer to Florida teachers as home talent) we have some of the best educators to be found anywhere. Dr. Redway, of New York, and the not- ed author of many books on geogra- phy, will, on Wednesday and Thurs- day of convention week tures. These lectures, author's works, will greatness of the man. Dr, Redway comes to us with an interaational !reputation and the management nat- urally feels elated over having him with us. Dr. Frank Clark, professor at Yale, will address the convention in the classical institute. As teacher of Latin in the great university, he will be eminently qualified to give us the very best in that line. Also Dr. J. W. Withers, of St. Louis, will speak on a subject which, perhaps more than any oth_ er, lies nearest the heart, education in the home and school. ®very pa- tron of the school would do well te attend the convention and especially this lecture. Another subject which concerns mainly the rura] teachers of cur State is that of boys’ corn clubs and girls’ tomato clubs. While just in its infancy at present, this move- ment, launched only a few years give lec- like the reflect the DEC. 18, 1914. back, shows promise becoming state-wide in its scope. Hon. 0. B. Martin, of Washington, D. C., one of the heads of this department, will address the convention on this im- portant subject. All of these men are leaders in their line and no trouble was spared in bringing them here. Ang so on throughout the entire list of speak- ers one has only to g lance through the booklet 2ontaining the program to find that it is replete with good things for teuchers and patrons. With only three days and at a time when we are least busy, the convention sheuld appeal strongiy to our intellectual natures. We turn from the convention side to the other side, which is ours. The railroads have low excursion rates to Lakeland from all points over the State. Teachers and others are go- ing to take advantage of this, which means that more than a thousand Nisitors will be with us on the 29th, 30th and 31st. Takeland in the past has enter- taineq other conventions and done it well. In fact her fame has gone out far and wide as the convention city. During the past she has entertained more conven- tions than any other two cities in the State. The business men, the merchants, real estate men, the Board of Trade, in fact all citizens of the town have felt the responsi- bility and responded nobly. Auto- mobile trips in and around Lake- land, entertainments and banquets have been extra features for the pleasure of our visitors. This convention will bg no excep- tion. The hotels are making prep- arations to handle the largest crowds in their history. Many homeg which heretofore have never taken woomers have kindly consented to help in providing places for the teachers. Our present Lakeland has in the past drawn large dividends from capital invested in looking after and «caring for delegates. The progres- -siveness of our city, the hospitality in our homes, the spirit of our peo- plo have always impressed outsiders, Neither is Lakeland behind in the onward march of education. With pew school buildings, second to none in the State, and an enrollment of .l.'.'()o pupils, she ig a living example of the idea that a town's progres- siveness is measured by her school interests. For three days we will be the cy- nosure of all eyes. May we be equal to the occasion and prove to others that Lakeland, in spite of the war, {ig rapidly forging to the front as l_the best town in the State. of i O ———————_— DISSOLUTION NOTICE Notice is hereby given that the furniture firm of O'Doniel Sons Co. hag been dissolved by mutual consent, O. 0.
