WHITE PASSED AWAY LAST NIGHT Mrs. C. C. White died last night 4t 11:30 at her home on E. Orange street after an illness of ten days of lagrippe. Seriously ill from the very first, and being in a rundown condition anyway, she was unable to withstand the ravages of the dis. ease, and, although given every med- ical attention, she passed away surrounded by her devoted loved ones. Mrs. White had been a resident of Lakeland for twenty vears and was loved and admired by a large circle cf friends, who knew and ap preciated aer at her fuil worth. Mrs. White was a woman who deserved great credit. Left a widow when her children were mere infants, she reared a family of six children to young manhood and womanhood by her own efforts, and they are among the most respected members of Lake - land’s citizenship. Mrs. White was a devout Christian, a member of the First Methodist church, and was be loved by 21l who had the pleasure of her acquaintance. Besides her children, Mrs. Swin=|_ Jewell dell, Mrs. Everett, Miss White and three sons, Messrs. Dosia, Landy and Cecil, Mrs. vived by her sisters, Mrs. W. McRae, Misg Sallie Timmons other relatives.

Jackson at lovely " Thursday in honor of Mi othy Harrison of Knoxville, Tenn. The house was decorated with flaming ndsturtiums and exquisite roses. The incoming guests dis- ac. birthday, was much in evidence in the signs of hatchets, cherried, red, white and blue colors. Somehow these colors give a fillip to gay fes- tivities and so it was here. What is a prettier nm than a bevy of sweet, pretty girls? Mrs. Jackson was assisted by Mrs. Roscoe Skipper who served punch. The merry girls found “500” the game of the hour and played it with much fun and inter-] est; there were three tables and not | a moment wasted until it was found three had highest score, Miss Mil- dred Hampton securing the prize, u kewpie, and Miss Helen Conibear the consolation, a hatchet, that was really a fan. The guest prize was one of those lovely Florida scenes which no doubt Miss Harrison will enjoy still more later on. The dainty, delightful refresh - ments carried out the color scheme | and souvenir hatchets were thruft ti tkrough the napkins, thus the feapt was doubly inviting tn that it was good to eat and good to look at. Mrs. Jackson dispensed the hos- ! pitality of her home in so gracious 1a manner that the merry “buds” Illngered loath to leave and stayed so late they had the beautiful sunset scene on Lake Morton to put away in their memories with the rest of a charming time. Those present were Miss Harri- son, honoree, Gladys Wilson, Gene. vieve Morrow, Margaret McCul- lough, Mildred Youngs, Mildred Hampton, Helen Conibear, Marga- | ret Southard, Laura ‘Southard, Olive Woods, Mary Gropver, Gladys Lov- ell, Annie C.

Miss Swindell Entertained The most interesting social that has been given by the Philathea| class of the First Baptist church wag a colonial party held last even- ing at the home of Miss Jewell Swindell. The home was very beautifully decorated with the na- tional colors. Many of the guests were dressed in colonial style and did justice to the ones they repre- sented. It was quite a task to de- cide to which the honor was due, but finally Miss Essie Tillis (Mar.|February 21 tha Washington), Mr. Barnes (Christopher Columbus), and Mr. Gra English (John Alden), were chosen.

Arriving in this city the Lakeland people were in doubt ag to whether there would be a pa- rade because of the downfall of rain and received word that the program would be carried out only after the parade had started.

Here again they had trouble, for on. of the wheels went into deep sand and only the hardest kind of work got it out an hour later. “By that time the parade had passed up Franklin street. In front of the Elks’ club house they deter- mined to start out on their own hook. The charming Lakeland girls took their prages on the float, the Lakeland band lined up in front and the Lakeland Elks brought up the rear. Off they started and, stepping to the lively tunes of the band, the girls riding on the float as though being out in the rain was an everyday thing to them and pay - ing no attention to the elements as they threw oranges and strawberries to the throng along the sidewalks. “Finally they came up to the main parade going in the opposite direc- tion. When their own place in the line came along they swung in and the people gave them an extra cheer for their fine work.
