HAYNES .Whereas, 1t is with profound re- gret that we record the death of our late hrother, P. B. Haynes, who de- parted this life on March 27, 1915, ‘and, - Whereas, Werealize keenly the loss we have sustained, yet we bow in humble submission to the will of the Supreme Architect of the uni- verse whose wisdom is perfect and whose love passeth all understand- ing. In the fraternity Brother Haynes was ‘a conscientious, tireless worker and in the community a model citi- zen. Resolved, therefore, that in his death Lakeland Lodge No. 91, F. & A. M., has suffered a distinct loss and to his family do we extend our deepest sympathy and condol- ence, and Be it further resolved that a copy of these resolutions be spread upon our book of minutes and a page therein dedicated to his memor that one copy be farnished the pre of the city of Lakeland, and one <copy given to his family in token of the sincere affection and high teem in which we held our friend and brother w D.

Few knew that Jess was coming, and he had no idea that he would arrive, {but twenty-six and a dark shadow reads winner in the dream book. Jess had no chance to dream the night before, but he practiced all inizh!. and satisfied some of the eternal weakness for ‘“‘chicken." A Real Bar, Not a Saloon “None of the end men sprang the 11m|e airy persifiage about the show in the show will acquiesence that it was about the best bar that Lake- land Elks have been up against since Polk county, changed from pork. Charley, Lord, Baltimore, Mayor, tenor and tinner, Hupmobile, Barr put the show on. He's mayor of Au- burndale, but Fred and Cliff say this should not be mentioned as a liabil- ity, especially when Earl May lives in the same town, and shirked when he was ordered to come down and be bottle holder. Earl was late and is expected next week. Fred held the tice of the eccentric dances and al- together songs were rehearsed. “But in spite of the liability of Mayor Barr the show was something that tickled even Harry Hunt, and Tucker Savage was heard to emit a squak or two from the galyery. Nobody saw Kenmeth McKay smile, but, it is alleged, on good authority, that he did. “Everybody starred, and playing favorites is impossible. The esprit de corps would be a valuable asset to many of the big league ball clubs training here, and the individual play was of that class which taxes the effervescent vocabulary of even the love-sick office cub. “The audience was unusually re- sponsive, and there is a ready wel- come to the good fellows from Lake- land, and the good fellow from Au- burndale to return whenever they can NOTICE The annual stockholders’ meeting of Chautanqua Auditorium Associa- tion will be held at the offices of the company on Wednesday the 12th of May, 1915, at 10 o'clock a. m.

BRYAN ARCHITECT Room 8 Elliston Building i P. 0. Box 605 | Lakeland, Florida | Daily Thought Ninetenths of the good that is dome | in the world is the result not o. laws, however wise, or of resolutions how- ever strong, but of the personal influ- ence of individual men and women.— 8ir Samuel Chiznolm bottle the night before while prac- and build cities. Tt is far better to spend some money on projects that do not meet with unanimous approv- al than to stay expenditures and thrust the dagger of false economy into the heart of progress. Lake- land is growing, and everything that is growing—be it animal or corpora- tion—demands nourishment, and dollars are the Mellin’s Food of mu- nicipal development. A wise paragrapher has said, “If you buy out of town, and we buy out of town, and all our neighbors buy out of town, what in thunder will become of our town? Ever think of ite” Many a Lakeland woman has helped and is today continuing to help cut down her husband’s income by buying her millinery, gowns and other dry goods in Tampa and north- ern cities, simply to show her friends at social gatherings the trade mark of some milliner or modiste of those cities or, at most, to save a few pen- nies on the difference in cost. This policy, however, is suicidal and does not help to make friends and patrons for her husband in a busines and professional way. Wise is the wom- an who not only preaches but prag- tices the thrifty principle of patron- izing home merchants. It brings re- turns on “hubby's” income in many ways. Let's quit thinking that we can do better away from home and start giving our business men the patronage so that they, in turn, can help build us up. Let's be Rotarians in every sense of the word. jboing up against the bar, but those Now Is the time for the farmer to get ready to take care of his sur- plus products. If one girl in this county last year could put up and profitably market over 3,000 cans of tomatoes, that farmer who hesitates before such a task is not in these days fit to be a farmer, because his energy and ability along this line of conservation means the difference between profit and loss. There ought to be 500,000 cans of tomatoes put up in this vicinity this season, which, if canned properly, will keep out that many cans of imported |goods and enable the grower out of |the profits of this year’s crop alone to buy a new horse and wagon, to put up & new barn, to improve his house, or to give himself and fam- {ily one or more or many ;thlnxs they have been hoping for f;enr after | year. .

Instead of asking, ‘“What 'is the "Board of Trade domng?” put it this {way: “What am I doing. to work | with the other members of the Roard for the good o f Lakeland?” {GEORGIANS TESTIFY TO MAYR'S REMEDY ' {Lives Redeemed and Fortunes in Health Are Recovered Most of the problems \_of health originate in the stomach. Most of these ailments can be cured. Thou- sands of people right in the State of Florida are needlessly suffering from stomach troubles, while thou- sands of others have found health by the use of Mayr's Wonderful Rem- edy. The first dose of this remark- able remedy is proof. Here are the words of two Georgians who have used it: B. DUNCAN, 136 W. Peachtree St., Atlanta, Ga.—*“I took one bot- tle of Mayr's Wonderful Remedy and it did me so much good T must continue the treatment.” SALISTA THOMAS, 55 La France St., Atlanta, Ga.—*T have taken your remedy for five weeks. T feel like T hardly known my strength— my appetite is fine.” Mayr's Wonderful Remedy gives permanent results for stomach, liv- er and intestinal ailments. Eat as much and whatever you like. No more distress after eating, pressure | of gas in the stomach and nrnunll: "BULD ADOmoN An addition is being built to the Cumberland Presbyterian church, to accommodate the needs of the grow- ing congregation. The addition is being_ placed at the rear of the pres- ent structure, facing Lemon street, and will be 36x22 feet. This will provide four Sunday school rooms, which in addition to the two now in use will give the church six Sunday school rooms. Work on this improvement is al- ready under way, and the money has all been subscribed. The Telegram is pleased to note this evidence of | the life and activity of the Cumber- land / Presbyterian organization, which embraces some of Lakeland's very best citizenship. Thid church has a most energetic and able pas- tor in Rev. Callahan and since his | astorate new life has been injected into the church as shown in the manner in which it is now branch- ing out.
