WHITE WAY IS
NOW ASSURED
FOR LAKELAND
THE CITY COUNCIL LAST NIGHT
AGREED TO COOPERATE
IN PROJECT
Current Will Be Furnished and Sys.
ton Accepted as Part Of City
Lighting Plan

Last night witnessed the culmina.
tion Of one Of the most important
movements ever attempted to adver.
tise Lakeland and place Il on the
map as city Of metropolitan pre-
tensions, when the City Council, by
unanimous consent, granted the Pc
tition OF the governors Of the Board
of Trade, and agreed to furnish free
current for the White Way, to stand
the cost Of installing the posts, etc.,
along the line of the city property,
and to accept and maintain the
White Way as part Of the street
lighting system of the city.
The carrying of this project to a
successful Issue Is a distinct triumph
for the Lakeland Board of Trade and
more particularly for the energetic
and untiring secretary, Mr.. A. j.
lIolworthy. With the corporation
Of the active members of the Board,
he has worked faithfully and through
manifold discoura 'cmcnts to bring
about this splendid Improvement for
Lakeland, and he and the Board Of
trade generally arc receiving many
con %ratulations on the successful
way in which the matter has been
handled.
The plans for the White Way take
in all TIE blocks on kentucky ave-
nue. between Pine street and Main.
and on Main street between MaSsa.
chUsctts and Florida avenues. There
Will be five posts to each block, each
post bearing five LARGE Globes. On the
blocks specified Secretary llolworthy
has contracts covering the installa-
tion on all but two pieces of prop
rrty. 1t is likely that the owners
Of these will fall l1sso line. Several
property owners on Pine street have
significd wish that the system be
also extended along that street.
Mr.. II d. Mendenhall. in his dual
capacity as a member of the Council
and President of the Board of Trade,
has also rendered excellent service on
behalf OF the White Way project; but
its adoption last niaht by the City
Council was due principally to the
LOGICAL and persuasive arguments OF
Councilman N. A. higgins, to whom
the Board of Trade feels deeply
grateful fer his assistance.

MR., 0'HERN PASSED
AWAY LAST NIGHT

Last night at sos, Mr.. j. D.
O'Ilern passed away after a wtk' s
illness, and today the whole town
mourns for this popular, whole
souled gentleman, who numbered his
friends by his acquaintance and who
probably enjoyed a greater acquaint-
ance over South Florida than any
other one man. The funeral services
were conducted this afternoon at the
family residence, at which time a
large number of sorrowing friends
gathered to pay their last respects.
Mr.. O'IIern was stricken with
hemorrhage of the brain which
caused paralysis, on last Thursday,
and had he lived until today he
would have been Ill just a week.
Truly his passing proves that "ln the
midst of life we are in DEATH" for a
more robust person could hardly
have been found and 1t was deep
shock to his many friends when it
became known that human aid could
not avail.
Mr.. O'Hern was one of the most
capable travelling statesmen on the
road, acting in this capacity for a
number OF years for Snow & Bryan,
of Tampa. He was gentleman held
in highest esteem by all who knew
him, and just on the eve Of his last
illness was persuaded by his friends
to become a candidate for mayor Of
the city. He was a member of the
First Methodist church and a gen.
tleman of high character, and In his
passing his bereaved widow and lit
tie son have the deepest sympathy Of
a host of friends both here and else
where.
The body will be shipped to ST.
Augustine tonight, accompanied by
the family and number of friends,
where interment will be made to-
morrow.
