Evening Telegram is its name. NJ.
F. Hetherington, well known to all
Florida as the able and popular edi-
tor OF The Lakeland News, is also in
charge OF The Telegram, and judg-
ing from the initial number, pub

a handsome and excellent addition to
the newspaper list of this state. The
Telegram is a siX-cOlumn, eight
page paper. neatly printed and con-
tanning local and general news at
tractively displayed. A bright and
interesting editorial column will be
maintained, and the presence Of a
considerable number of advertise
ments suggests that the people OF
Lakeland and vicinity are alive to
the fact that advertising is essential
to progress. The compliments and
congratulations Of The Times-Union
are extended to the newcomer. and
long and prosperous career is pre-
dicted.--The Times-Union.

Just q Little Fashion Hint.

A pink satin dress embroidered
with little diamonds and other prec-
ious stones. costing $4,000, will be
worn by Anna Held when she appears
at one of the Atlanta theaters this
week. The talented actress will
wear pink stockings to match also
studded with little diamonds. All
told there are three thousand little
sparkling diamonds in the costume.
While it is true that all is not gold
that glitters. it is true that the dia-
mcads in Miss feld's costume are
genuine.
