Authentic information was given to
The Journals representatives that the
road would be extended to Lynn
Haven within a short time. Only q
narrow arm of the bay separates
Southport from Lynn Haven and ar
rsngements have already been made
for the bridging of the bay, putting
Lynn Haven on a direct line which
connects with the trains from the
north.
The Steamer Tarpon which has a
weekly schedule from Mobile and Pen
sacola touches at Lynn Haven, giving
that city a remarkably low freight
rate, as we'll as affording the tourists
from the north an opportunity of TAX
ing sea voyage by going to Pensa-
cola and taking the Tarpon for Lynn
Haven, which is a very delightful ride,
especially to those who have never
had the opportunity of taking a gulf
trip.
Work on the roadbed for the electric
railway to extend from Lynn Haven to
the Atlanta, Dothan and Gulf railway
has already begun. This will give the
people of Lynn Haven the advantages
Of that road which connects with the
Central of Georgia and the Atlantic
Coast line roads at Dothan. This cleo
trio road will be extended from Lynn
Haven through a rich undeveloped ter
rttory which will soon be put on the
market ready for the truckers and
fruit growers. It will touch all OF
the principal points on the bay and
will be a factor in the upbuilding OF
not alone Lynn Haven but the entire
bay country.
There is some prospects Of an alto
gether new road having its terminus
at Lynn Haven, though the promoters
Of the proposed road have not giver
out their plans yet. In the meantime
the Lynn Haven Board of Trade is
leaving no stones unturned to get new
railroads and industries of every ma
ture which will tend to upbuild the
newest and largest city Of the county

Social and Religious Life
of Lynn Haven, Florida

That Lynn Haven has taken a per
manent place on the map Of Florida, is
conceded by all Many have written
of its charming location on beautiful
st. Andrews Bay, Of it's salubrious eli
mate, its commercial advantages, the
pleasures Of fishing, boating and bath
ing in the bay, its prospects as a
Haven of Refuge for the many In the
north, who quail before the rigors OF a
northern winter, and other phases of
interest: but the social and religious
life of the Magic City have been home
what overlooked.
The writer arrived here November
4th, 1911. Since that date, she has been
more or less identified with the life Of
the town.
The first purely social organization
was The Ohio Association, and being a
Buckeye" she thoroughly enjoyed the
friendship and intercourse found In
these gatherings. A little later a Lit
erary Society was started, to keep in
touch with current events, and to
study some of the great authors. A
Methodist Episcopal Ladies' Aid So
ciety was organized with FIVE members
and now numbers over fifty. There is
another Ladies' Aid Society, under the
auspices Of the Baptist denomination.

They are always ready and willing to
assist on any occasion. The Methodist

given several musical and literary en-
tertainments, which have been well re-

been given by the Lynn Haven Band
and the Ladies' Circle.

LYNN HAVEN
IS SOON To BE
INCORPORATED

So much time has been taken up in
building houses and arranging to take
care Of the newcomers that Lynn
Haven has neglected to have the town
Incorporate and city government es-
tablished. though no Ill effects have re-
suited from a lack Of city government,
But all cities must become incorpo-
rated sooner or later II they improve.
and Lynn Haven IS now laying her
plans to ask for a charter under which
it can operate.
BY the time the municipal Is es-
tablished. however. the builders of the
city will have done a vast amount of
Improvement which usually devolves
upon the city fathers, such as putting
in sewerage systems, electric lights
and water plants and similar improve
ments. All of these thinks Senator
Lynn and his associates are now
working on, and just as soon as a
municipal government is established
the water and light plants will either
be turned over to It or viii be operated
as private corporations, whichever the
city may desire.
These are real advantages for the
prospective settler to take into con-
his future home. When one moves to
Lynn Haven he Will know that electric
lights, artesian water and sanitary
sewerage are things which will come
TO him not in the distant future but
within a year, work on which has al
ready begun.

and they have so far succeeded much
beyond their expectations.
For the summer or winter tourist
and visitor, lynn Haven already pre-
sents many attractions. the bay affords
opportunity for boating, fishing and
hunting, as well as salt water bathing,
while the woods and fields are bright
with wild flowers every month in the
year.
To the man in the north, roasted by
its heats in summer, or CONCEALED by
its intense cold in winter, we can say
and say truly, come to Lynn Haven,
see its beauties, enjoy its cool and de-
hcious summers, and mild and COM
Portable winters. Where in summer one
can work out Of doors every day in
the sun without discomfort or danger
Of heat prostratiOu, where each day
the cool winds from the gulf make life
enjoyable; where IN winter, IL is sci
dom that the thermometer reaches as
low as 80. and where in every month
of the year one can have fresh veg
cables on the table, picked from the
garden on that day.

This statement invites veriflcatiou.
An institution which must not be
overlooked is the admirably equipped
Photographic establishment Of Capt.
T. w. Ryding, from whom the photo
graphs for the cuts in this article were
obtained. He is an artist OF long ex-
perience, having maintained studio
in Ohio for twenty five yeats before
coming here. He has a valuable PROP
erty here, including a new house of at
tractive Design and all the improve
ments, situated in the center OF four
town lots. with studio adjoining, which
has equipment of modern skyhght,

All the means Of transportation,
electric lighting, school buildings, fire
protection, etc, are not yet fully in
stalled in this municipality, but q
power building is erected and vigor-
Gus measures are under way for school
privileges, which, with other progress
sive betterments sure to come in
little time, will add to the towns at
tractiveness and desirability as a place
Of residence and for business purposes.
AS to the healthfulness of the re-
gion and the city in particular. the
death rate is less than one person per
month in a population of 1000. and
this is saying a whole lot when the
fact that nearly or quite one-half OF
the population Is composed OF people
who are living on borrowed time
past the three score-and-ten mile
stone, and not a few coming here in
valided. This testimony Is strength
ened when one talks with the two un-
dertakers, who say that except for
other business here they would starve.
The desirability of Lynn Haven as a
health resort is receiving the atten-
ton Of prominent physicians and
nurses, who are considering the estab-
lishment Of a sanitarium here, with
hospital attached, for the benefit and
convenience of the whole surrounding
territory. Many notable recoveries
from illness are proclaimed here and
can be proved.
One year hence the writer Will be
glad to be called upon again to record
the progress Of this growing city an
ticipating that a forward stride can
then be recorded which will attract the
admiring attention of the nation.

dies Of the G. A R are the oldest, each
of which has a large membership.
Camp Merrill Sons of Veterans has re-
Gently been organized. Steps have
been taken to institute a Masonic and
also an Odd Fellows Lodge.
OF our Union Sunday School, we
can speak in the highest terms An
average attendance of one hundred
twenty i've, including all ages and all
denominations. working in perfect har-
mony, is not always found in q town
Of this size.
The Methodist Episcopal Church is
fully organized, and a nice church ed
iflce is nearing completion. The Bap-
fist Church organized, and has work
ing Ladies' Aid. The ladies of the
Disciples Church organized a Mission
airy Society. The Presbyterians have
held services, but, so far, have not
perfected an organization. An effort is
being made to organize a church for
colored people.
The people, generally, are very So
ciable, remarkably so. when you con-
slider that they are gathered, here,
from every state in the Union, and
several Provinces It would be diff
cult to find a more cosmopolitan ag-
gregation: still they are always friend
" and social. The writer feels that
she is in a position to know whereof
she speaks; as she is identified with a
number Of the different organizations
Of the town; and no social hour ever
drags. They are always filed with
friendly intercourse, which never de-
sends to the level Of gossip. And not
only socially, but mentally as well.
Lynn Havenites are above the average.
No AT Home" or social gathering is
ever regarded as something to be en-
dured; but is always anticipated with
pleasure as well as enjoyed to the
full.
Long life and happiness to the noble
pioneers of Lynn Haven.

Lynn Haven
Situated on Beautiful St. AndreOUs Bay, Florida

has been Incorporated to make II OF
great commercial value to this whole
section. Orange growing is another
industry which is worthy Of considera'
ton in connection with the production
of figs, pecan nuts and vegetables.
There is no doubt but that all these
marketable products can be raised
here in paving quantities when ship
ping facilities which are being pro-
NOTED give the necessary outlet Rail
reads are pushing towards the bay for
the sure passenger Tra1dc already
manifested, and that lends confidence
to the claim that refrigerator service
will accompany II for the transporta-
ton Of crops. The dairy business is
another certain monsy-making enter
prise If properly handled, as an abund-
ance Of forage crops can be readily
produced at small cost. The small out
lay necessary for housing stock, a
financial drawback in the north, will
offset the cost of ice in that line.

northerner. There was considerable

Small tracts Of truck lands may be
obtained just outside of Lynn Haven
proper, and eventually Lynn Haven
will be noted as a vegetable market,
for the lands lavishly respond to the
gardeners industry. Truck farming
today is one of the most profitable
businesses in which man may engage.
At the time Florida produce is at it's
best there is no other section of the
