f.. T. Soars-Real estate conditions
in Salt Lake are exceptionally fine.
The outlook was never better. The mar

during the last thirty days than for
many months, at least with US. Farm
lands and acreage tracts both close in

selling faster than during any other

LAKELAND HIGH SCHOOL
HAD A FLAG BEFORE

Editor Evening Telegram:
To judge from an article in the
Lakeland Telegram of the Goth inst.
one would suppose that the raising
OF flag on the dome Of the Lake
land High School was an innovation
AS q matter Of fact. 1t will be re-
membered that only few years ago,
when that excellent principal. Pro.
fessor T. b. Kirk. was at the head OF
the school there was similar occur
renee
Most appropriately. on Washing
toms birthday. after the rendering Of
a fine program Of patriotic songs and
speeches from a stage Respondent in
red. white and blue, the school and
visitors assembled on the campus to
witness the flag-raising.
An enthusiastic young American.
arrayed in the national colors. pulled
the string, and amid rousing cheers.
the beautiful, silken folds were flung
to the breeze.
So it will be seen that even be.
fore this eventful year of nineteen
twelve the sparks of patriotism were
lit in the breasts of the pupils of our
ever progressive and progressing
Lakeland school.
