Some items of interest weregivenby various mem - bers. We were glad to have some visiting members with us. Reports were heard from the superintendent present. The chairman of the fair committee reported that the rest ‘tent at the. fair was well occupied and geemed to be appreciated. A ‘considerable amount of literature was distributed, and just here we would like to say that some litera- ture, a satchel and some pillows, which were left in the tent were missing. If any ome knows of the whereabouts of any of these arti- cles the W. C. T. U. would appre. ciate the information. The W.. C. T. U. wishes to thank Mrs Bevis, Miss Gaskins and Dr. Hanna for decorating the car for the parade. Also Mr. Greer for his kindness in carrying out the sawdust and some other things for the tent; and Mrs. Clark for the use of the tent. Miss Verda Wiison, the medal contest superintendent, is arranging for a contest soon. The membership contest came to a close today. The blues won and the reds will entertain next Tues- day afternoon at Mrs. J. W. Turner's, East Orange. The enter- tainment will also include the cele- bration of Willard Memorial day. The next reguar meeting will be on the second Tuesday in April. MRS. H. B. MORSE, Press Superintendent. semble such as is possible only when masters in the art histrionic com.

This minstrel troupe ie composed of for ty men, including the Minstrel Troupe, the University Band, and the Orchestra, each of which is a complete organization in itself. Af. ter months of hard training, and |several performances in the north ern part of Florida, it was decided |by the management to make a tour of the southern part of the State, iand the people of Lakeland may consider themeelves extremely for . tunate to have their town selected as one of the four stops which this minstrel troupe will make on this trip. As a minstrel show this troupe can be compared most favorably with any organization now on the road, and it is to be hoped that no one will miiss this opportunity to see a show composed of the college men of our State University, who have the ability and enerey to put jout such a show.
