If Lakeland turns down the propo-
sition today for a modern city hospi-
tai after the site has been donated by
a philanthropic, public-spirited lady,
we ought to keep the fact a dead Sc
cret among ourselves if possible, and
not let it get out. That would be
one instance in which the virtue of
publicity would fail and news of the
defeat would make outsiders doubt
if Lakeland were really as enterpris-
ing and up-to-date as she professed
to be.
