*r2ts0EPEI00IIN00000000000 . LAKELAND w LACONIC T i s r PP PP PREDELE RS b dbEy - In case of fire phone 5000 A —————— Mrs. C. M. Clayton and little daughter left this morning for a visit of a few days with friends at Ocala and Gainesville. p. A. Hochstetter is up from Tam- pa nursing a sprained arm, which he infired while hauling household goods recently in thng city. Rev. D. B. Sweat, pastor of the Methodist church at Manatee, and who formerly resided in Lakeland, pas been mingling with his many friends in this city today and yes- ter He came over to make ar- rungements for the entry ¢ his son, Dan, as a student in the Lakeland pusiness College. Friends of Mr. and Mrs. J . swearingen will be greatly grieved to learn of the death of Mrs. Swear- ¢ which occurred in Pittsburg ntly . Mrs. Swearingen had peen suffering from cancer for a long time and her death was caused by that ailment. The Swearingens have property here and have been regular winter residects for several years. Rev. J. Edgar Wilson, editor of the Florida Christian Advocate, has returned from Gainesville, where on Sunday he filled the pulpit of the First Methodist church. Mr. Wilson astor of that church for four and was greatly beloved in Gainesville, and his occasional vis- jts to that city aré attended with much pleasure both on his part and that of his host of friends there. wa years, At the meeting of the Governors the Chamber of Commerce last t, a resolution was adopted en- ng the Lakeland Business Col- and urging members of the or- lization to lend this woFthy in! stitution their support and influence. It was also decided to offer a hand- some gold medal to the pupil making the best record in the Music Depart- ment of the College. The board feels that the upbuilding of this institu- tion would be of great advantage to Lakeland, and is desirous of aiding its success in every way possible. of When J. C. Swindell and A. J. Holworthy arrive at the respective destinations for which they left to- day—the former for Chattanooga to attend the Dixie Highway Associa- tion, and the latter for Montgomery, to he present at the meeting of the Southern Secretaries’ Association— they will have some fine advertis- ing for Lakeland in the shape of quantities of superb grapefruit, which they will distribute to those attending these distinguished gath- erings, They arranged to have sev- eral boxes shipped to reach these places at the time of their arrival, and we predict Lakeland grapefruit wil make a hit at these conventions. Mr. H. C. Stevens received noti- fication this morning from A. C. L. headquarters that he had been giv- en the High Springs watch inspec- tion territory, which embraces a wide area, Mr. Stevens now in- spects watches for all of the Lake- land district and part of the Jack- sonville, Gainesville and Waycros districts. The territory covered in- cludes Lakeland and all towns south to Fort Myers, Lake City, High Springs, Gainesville, Ocala, Palatka, Leesburg, Sanford, Homosassa, Brooksville and other smaller towns. The inspection work is done by Mr. 1. V. Stevens, who is an expert in this work and also a most genial and popular gentleman. The work, however, takes him from Lakeland a great part of the time, which his friends very much regret. NOTICE Complaints about parties digging near the lakes for bait have been made to the City authorities. Thi e e e et N ASEBALL GAMES ME T0 B * DISCONTINED Secretary and Treasurer Joseph Le of the Lakeland Baseball As- The expenses are heavy and che four games played thus far this season were played at a loss. Mr LeVay states that Lakeland hés a fine team and he re- grets the necessity of discontinuing the games, but the association can't see its way clear to have any more for some time to come.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE DIRECTORS HELD INPORTANT MEETING LAST NIGHT The directors of the newly organ- ized Chamber of Commerce held an important meeting last night, and closed up the affairs of the recent campaign. It was found that the movement had been phenomenally successful, and the organization is |now on a firm financial basis, with about 0 active enthusiastic mem- bers, giving it not only their finan- cial, but their moral, support. After reading the report, the di- rectors expressed their gratification at the splendid resultg secured, and passed a unanimous resolution of thanks to Mr. Don Farnsworth for the effective aid he had rendered in bringing about the reorganization on such satisfactory basis. Mr. J. L. Skipper was elected a member of the board of directors, vice P. E. Chunn, removed. For chairman of the membership council, one of the most important positions connected with the oreani- zation’s workings, Mr. E. H. Youngs was nominated. For vi chairman, Mr. J. C. Owens was nominated. The Board felt that they had selected strong and efficient men for these responsible positions, and believe these selections will be en- dorsed by the membership council. Heads of bureaus were appointed as follows: Civie and Traflic Burean-—B. F. Wilson . Commercial and Industrial--M. A. Smith. Publicity and Conventions— W, S. Moore. Rural Affairs—J. C. Swindell, This completes the working force of the Chamber of Commerce, and it is believed that it will prove an ex- ceptionally strong one, and that the crganization has entered upon anp era of activity and usefulness that will make it felt in its effects on this city's growth and progress in an un- mistakable way. —e Clayton Smith.
