C.. E. CARAT
Writes Mr.. Drane
OF War Situation

Friends of Mr.. c. E. CARAT, one
of the pioneer residents of Lakeland,
will be much interested in the fol-
lowing letter from him to Mr.. H.
j. Drane, which We have been given
the privilege of publishing. When
the first news came that England
would be involved in war, Mr.. Gar
raft, like the loyal and gallant gen.
tleman he is, promptly left for his
native country, to place his life and
services at her disposal. This mes
sage from him will be of interest to
a large number of our readers:
16 Rawlinson Road, Oxford,
Sept. 5tn, 1914.
Dear Drane-Just few lines to
say that we are in London at the
present time and we'll. Also you
need have little fear that / shall fin
ally land in the army, unless the
Germans absolutely rout our troops
out Of France or drive the Russians
back, and even then they have our
navy to reckon with before they
land their troops in this country and
attempt to treat us as they did the
plucky little BeEians. BY which I
mean that men of MY age are not
wanted on the continent. Kitchen
er's first army of one hundred thou
sand recruits included only unmar-
ried men between is and 80. His
second call allowed married men to
enlist but not over 35, and regulars
who have seen service, up to AS.
Still there are jobs at home in TAX
ing the place of those who have
gone to the front--special constables,
coast guard, etc. | had Job las,
week which may make You smile
looking after Boy Scouts who dis
tributed leaflets and books on re-
cruiting and the cause of the war,
ETC., at the Guild Hall. Thousands
and thousands lined the streets un-
able to get in. heard Asquith and
Bonar Law speak; Balfour and
Churchill also said few words. 1t
seems possible that a battle may be
fought this week that will dwarf
all former contests as regards loss
of life, the result of which will go
far towards settling the length of
the war. l am not over sanguine,
though fully believe that we shall
win out in the end.
Our kind regards to Mrs. Drane
and your family.
Sincerely yours,
C. EUSTACE GARRATT.

DR.. COnibear Tells
Illinois People OF
Conditions Here

DR.. w. H. Conibeer, who recent
ly returned from Illinois, in writing
to Mis- old home paper, says:
Leaving Cincinnati at s a. M. on
the list, l had delightful trip
crossing the Cumberland anC Smokey
ranges of mountains in daylight
after the whole distance had been
covered with refreshing rains which
prevented dust. l arrived in Lake
land in heavy shower that we run
into about 10 miles up the track on
the ed.
II found the family all well and
full of sympathy for me for having
suffered so much with heat while in
Illinois, as they had very nice wealth
err all the time 4 had been gone; 92
was the hottest. They had timely
rains during my absence and all ma
ture looked fresh and beautiful.
Although Henry and my man
had cut the grass and beggar weed
in the grove and filled our barns
with very fine hay, it now looks as
if we will have to NOW it again next
month. They also had the corn fod-
der cared for and put away and
most of the corn cribbed, so that
we are in pretty good shape to be-
gin our fall planting which we eA.
pect to do next week with Irish po-
tatoes, following with Strawberries,
tomatoes, cabbage. lettuce, ETC., all
of which we expect to be ready for
use by Christmas or before.
1--WE are having some very fin.
rains that are wetting up the sub
soil which will insure the finishing
up the citrus fruit crop and put the
ground in fine shape for the winter
vegetable crops. The winters are
usually dry here and if the sub-soil
is we'll saturated at this time it gives
up it's moisture about as the crops
need it,"

In Society
Engagement of
Miss Frances Bond

|
Announced
IN the Tampa Tribune this morn
ing appears the followinr Announce
lhent OF the engagement of a former
Lakeland girl, Miss Frances Bond.
winch will be of much interest to
friends here:
An interesting event and one
mat presages a still more interest
ing ohe' was the reception given
yesterday afternoon by Miss Doris
Knight and Mrs. Eugene Wall
Knight at the home of the latter on
North Jefferson street.
AS the guests arrived they were
greeted by Mrs. j. W. Bradley and
Mrs. Joe Henderson. In the receiv-
Ing line were Mrs. Knight. Miss
Knight and Miss Frances Bond.
MRS. Knight was handsomely gowned
IN basque dress of black satin,
with black maline overskirt over
yellow satin. Miss knight wore one
Of the new style basque frocks, with
the bodice of black velvet and the
skirt of white net over white satin.
Miss Bond wore charming dress of
yellow crepe meteor with pearl trim
mings. Mrs. Henderson's dress was
OF pink, the basque being of satin
and the skirt of brocade satin. Mrs.
Bradley wore a gown of all white,
with trimmings of Chantilly lace.
In the library punch was served
by Mrs. A. R. Bond, assisted by
Miss Mary Louise Knight and Mrs.
Elsie Knight.
AT the dining room door were
Mrs. Edgar Wall and Mrs. c. l..
knight and serving the refreshments
were Misses Harriette Larner, Bar
bara Parkhill and Ruth Nelson. Al
though the decorations of the din
ing room betokened nuptial event,
it was not until the guests received
their refreshments that the secret
of the afternoon was told. Each
plate bore heart-shaped cake sur
mounted with cupid and the ice
cream was in the mold of turtle
doves. Besides this there was a card
decorated with a cupid and an en-
gagement ring and bearing the
names of Frances Louise Bond and
James Augustus Mckay, and the
date, Oct. %, 1914.
THE prevailing note of the dec
orations was yellow, making a per-
feet harmony with the tint of the
interior of the charming little bun
galow. Goldenrod was used in guam
titles and was the only flower with
the exception of the large chrysan-
themums, which were carried by
those in the receiving line. Over the
serving table in the dining room was
the chandelier, which was mass of
goldenrod and hanging in festoons
from this were many little cupids,
while the centerpiece was formed of
a statuette of the god of love, sur
rounded by a large band of gold, the
effect of the whole being softened
with sprays of asparagus fern.
THE announcement of this en-
gagement is one of particular inter
est, as both the bride and groom
elect are among the most popular
of the younger set, and
their marriage, just month hence.
will be one of the most interesting
events of the fall.
