PERSONAL HYGIENE.

The State Board of Health, always
solicitous for health conditions in
Florida, is giving some good advice
for summer use.
The dangers of the warm season
affect the digestive system and the
ailmentary canal more generally than
the respitory or the circulatory sys-
tens, although pneumonia is not an
irflequent summer disease. For this
reason everybody should be especial
~ careful with regard to the diet,
both as to eating and drinking.
The FIST and fundamental rule is,
be clean, keep clean, inside and out
side. bath every day is ncccs-
s.ty ujts as much as the daily LreaE-
fast. IN all-over bath in teh morn
ing and sponge bath at night are
none TOO much. The increase of the
visible perspiration leaves unpleas-
ant excret;ons on the skin, which be-
come unhealthfulif not removed fire.
quently and thoroughly. Massage
the skin; keep it lively and glow
ing.
The average person should drink
more in the summer than in the
winter, to supplement natures Ell
lurts to wash the body through the
pores of the skin.
What shoulud be the summer
drink?
Water, ice water if you want il
and don't drink it to excess. Most @.
tie soda fountain beverages are
palatable and harmless, but with the
average person any drink that con
tains a flavor of sweetening is a
thirst producer rather than quench-
CT, SO after all, water, just plain,
clean, cold water is about the best OF
al summer drinks.
The great and only danger from
ice water is its excessive use. To
persons who are overheated or who
work in high temperatures. ice water
IS seriously dangerous. 1t produces
congestion, better known as cramps
in thestomach. Acting on the ner-
vous system, 1t has a tendency to
bling about paralysis. Men working
before the furnaces in rolling mills
or as stokers in the holds of steam
ships, soon learn the danger Of ice
water, although some lose their lives
in learning.

BACKWARD VIEW OF FASHION
Most interecting Way Of Really Get
ting Hold Of the Changes
In Style.

An interesting way Of really getting
hold of the changes of fashion Is to
look back year and see what one
was talking about then. Judged by
that test, one of the most striking
contrasts between last June and this
Is the persistence with which the sub
ject of silk holds the attention today.
Ordinarily, by the first Of June. silk
has practically ceased to demand con.
sideratiun. Even belated buyers
those WON who, in ordering their
wardrobe ever do catch up with
the seasor lnever will-refuse gen.
orally l. excited about silk suits
and IL. when summer is actual
ly preset
But this : these late shoppers
cannot aiford to ignore silk, for II ID
enjoying one of the most enduring
vogues In all its long and checke'ed
career. The woman who thrifty
looks ahead and expects considerable
service out OF her wardrobe Is espe-
cially open to the idea of silk as q
summer fabric. for she reflects COM
placently that the frocks can be car.
ried over for cold weather wear.

The appeal of the School Trustees
IN last nights Telegram should re-
Give the earnest consideration and
.ttention of every voter in this dis
trict and insure his favorable action
at the polls on Saturday next The
school situation has been grievous
one and hard to be borne for a long
time. At least one hundred children
had to be denied admission during
the last school term, and the facili-
ties for handling those admitted were
SO bad that it is best not to furthe:
refer to them in these columns The
School Trustees have splendid fac
ulty engaged for next years WORK
and are entitled to the relief sought
at the hands of the taxpayers. That
there should be the slightest ques-
ton with regard to the outcome OF
the approach eegnlction is a reliec-
ton on Lakeland's progressiveness,
or at least SO far as it concerns those
who are sid to oppose it. Many
cities in Florida, not as large as
Lakeland and with much less pro-
;,ressve spirit in general way, have
bonded for much larger amounts in
order to afford their children the
best educational facilities in their
power. and surely Lakeland is not
going to take q back seat in this re-
spect.
The agreement on which the pro-
posed bond issue and the improve
ments contemplated We're based was
the result of a joint meeting OF the
School Trustees and the Board OF
Trade, and was in no way u compro-
mise but the unanimous expression
of all concerned as being the proper
thing to do The School Trustees,
at that and subsequent meetings
have shown an earnest desire to CO.
operate with a representative body of
citizens in carrying ont the plans,
and the fullest confidence of the tax
payers should be given. with the as
surance that the best interests of the
school district will be served.
The present school building is 10
Gated in Ward 2; the new school
will undoubtedly be built in Ward T.,
and it is the plan. as need arises, to
locate buildings in each OF the other
wards What better plan could be
outlined and carried out at this
time?
The proposed bonds are to run for
40 years, and in retiring them any
paying the interest thereon 1t is not
contemplated that any higher millage
will be necessary; the increased valu-
alton of the property, as the district
grows, being sufficient to meet the
situation.

BOARD OF TRADE MAKES
APPEAL FOR SCHOOL BONDS

No Taxpayer would be guilty OF
such short-sightedness, did he stop
for one moment to realize the loss to
himself in case OF failure to make
these much needed improvements.
Scores of people who are expecting to
locate in Lakeland this fall will turn
aide at once, to say nothing of many
others at present with us who will
undoubtedly leave, should this Bond
Election fail to carry. There would
then be noting for us to do but go
OF in the same old way. using our
washhouses and other unsanitary
buildings, until, perhaps, relief might
come in the translation to some un-
known regions of those back numbers
Who live in every city, more or less,
live, at it seems, for the sole pur-
pose of blocking every progressive
move and all public improvement be-
cause they feel that they may have
tc pay out few more dollars for
taxes. Generally speaking, these
people own most of what they have
today because Of the public improve
ments already made Tin spite of their
opposition to them at the time) and
the progressive spirit carried out,
with much handicap. by those who
have done much towards giving us
the real things we have and which
make US what we are today.
II the taxpayers of this district
fail to carry this Bond Election next
Saturday. it is safe to say, though
wretched to contemplate, that Lake
land will drop a good many notches
from the high point she has attained
IN the onward march of Florida cities
toward the goal Of progress.
No man will yer feel sorry, bur
everyone will feel glad he voted for
this absolutely necessary improve
Eent when next year sees Lakeland
up-to-date on her school facilities as
we'll as in hotel equipment, pavel
streets, sewerage and white way,
none of which are more necessary to
the welfare OF a city than good
schools.
oakland must carry this Bond
Election. II you are crouch. or Il
tight-wad. or an obstructionist, or
some other freak. stay at home, or
leave town next Saturday II you ar"
o live, red-blooded man, with some
loyalty for the town and confidence in
it's future; If you have any regard
for the children who are growing up
here, then get out on Saturday, and
not only vote for the bonds yourself
but see that your neighbor does the
same. A. ]. HOLWORTHY.

which they clearly outclassed their most
bitter rivals. The contest was played
on the fair grounds under weather ron.
ditions that were about as disagreeable
"a It Is possible to have them. Rain In
the early part Of the afternoon left the
grass wet and made the ball hard to
handle, while the cold wind that was
blowing chilled both players and spec.
tators to the bone. However, there was
good attendance of supporters from
both schools present to cheer on their
favorites.
Paris played q steady game, showing
to advantage oil the way except In the
blow-up of the final inning, when Nor
way scored the only runs they were able
to secure. Paris started with one run
in the first, added another 10 the second,
but failed to score In the third or fourth.
After that they scored In every inning to
the end Of the game, having final
count of nine. There was not an inning
during the game but saw some Paris
runner on the bases. On the other hand
Norway went out In order in six OF the
nine innings. They lost q fine oppor-
tunity to score in the second. Nc
Daniels opened with a hit. Shepard
reached first on an error by Brooks.
Haskell struck out, but Thomas drew q
pass, filling the bases with only one
out. Newton then helped his team .
whole lot by catching McDaniels of
third by quick throw to Bartlett. and
Rich closed the inning by striking out.
Norway was not dangerous again until
the ninth, and at that time Paris had
secured such lead that there was little
hope for them.
