w. O. w. Spends
Day In Lakeland

State Organizer C. H. Dame, of
the Woodmen of the World, was a
visitor to Lakeland today and was
shown around the city by Mr.. C. F.
Kennedy. Mr.. Dame is originally
from Ocala and is quite a booster
for that town. He explained the
presence in Lakeland of a number
of former Ocala people by declaring
that Ocala believed in good adver-
Using and thought there was no
better way than to send away sam
Piles of their best folks by which the
town could be judged, and who
would also tell the story of Ocala' $
charms. Mr.. Dame said, however.
that Lakeland looked different and
bigger every time he came, which is
quite often. and that everywhere he
went he heard of the splendid type
of citizenship that went to make up
this, one of the best towns in Flor
ida.

privilege of copying the following
extracts from letter received from

"Still another question came up.
Public works were suspended and
thousands of workmen were dis
missed. They went on roaring on
the streets of Cairo and Alexandria
without food, and used every chance
to get food out of the few open
stores by force as the majority have
closed. The government settled this
question by shipping the workmen
in train loads to the country where
they can farm and have something
to eat. We are glad that the condi-
lions are not bad in America as you
stated in your letter
"The worst of all is that the banks
closed suddenly and thus the rich
and poor found themselves once in
life on the same plane. The poor do
not have it and the rich have it but
