(ContributedO
Rev. Dr.. r. A. Hayden, who Is con
Quoting exangelistic services for Rev
J. n. Helm at Pilgrims Rest Baptist
church, fzeached at both services yes
terday. Dr.. Hayden has proven him
self a divine messenger OF Godi
eternal word and is doing . great
work in this city for the upbutlding OF
the kingdom OF Christ.
Yesterday morning he was greeted
bv a good attendance and last night
by crowded house, both white and
coadred residents having assembled
to hear this powerful and fluent
speaker.
His morning subject was The Tai.
ents." In his discourse he featured
the parable Christ spoke of as giving
the talents FIVE to one man, two to an
other and one to the third. He ex-
pressed the valuation of talent as
one thousand dollars in American Gu :.
rency so that those who received the
talents in the scripture had great tai
ents and were expected by the master
to increase them, just as the christian
forces of today are expected to In
crease their talents. He further said
that we are not all given the same
number OF talents but are given &C
cording to our ability.
DR.. Hayden depicted this man as
one who comes into the church and
stays only a little while; soon gets
tired of his labor; does nothing to
increase his talent and thereby loses
the race of eternal happiness in after
life
But those who came forward with
their talents and showed the master
how they had increased them, are
Ikened to the faithful christian who
goes into the church in youth and
STAYS amid trials and tribulations
until warfare of life is ended and who
at the resurrection day will receive

the gladstone message that the ser.
wants received when they had increas.
ed their talents.
In the conclusion Of MS address,
DR.. Hayden SD 1t is high time that
the christians were taking the oppoi.
tunity they had OF increasing their
talents 80 that they could sit In the
portal Of glory and rule over heaven
and the Joys thereof while the unfaith.
full ones are tossed about In despair
and the cries OF the wicked can be
heard In the lake OF fire and brim-
stone.
His subject last night was ''The
Judgment" In this discourse he
said that all the nations shall be gath
cred together before the throne of
God to receive their sentences and
that they shall be divided, the right
eous on the right hand as sheep and
the unrighteous on the left as goats.
Each one is to be judged and given
his decision whether 1t be good or
bad. They that are ungodly will re-
ceive that terrible sentence: Depart
from me, know you not. When /
was thirsty, you gave me no drink.
When l was hungry, you fed me not,
When I was naked, you clothed me
not. When was from under shelter.
Won took me not in. When the church
was struggling you did not help it.
When some one was in distress and
YOUR aid would have 'Afted them up
you didn't do. Now Judgment is
passed upon you, you have been
weighed in the balance and found
wanting"
On Judgment day man can not
hide. His body may have been buried
in the depths Of the sea but at the
Judgment day he must appear befo -e
the throne Of just God to hear his
sentence pronounced.
But the child of God has no fear
He knows that he did all in his power
by the help OF Gods omnipotent pow
er. to win the race of life everlasting
and it is with Joy he hears his sent

ence. Come we blessed OF my father
enter into the joys of heaven that has
been prepared for you from the foun-
dalton Of the world"
After the sermon DR.. Hayden re-
quested that each christian who re-
solved to live better and truer chris
tan life, come forward and lay their
hand on the bible which he opened
and placed on the table. Nearly 200
persons came forward and did so.

 The schools are still closed on ac-

 the school children again are called

The school attendance this year is well up to that of former years while parents state that the teaching is reaching higher state of efficiency than has been reached in some time. That is not saying that some time ago very high standard was necessarily set.
 All the fur buyers say that this is one of the dullest years in many and that market reports are de- pressing reading. On the other hand reports from many outlying sections say that fox and lynx are plentiful. and especially are white fox in abundance. The natives who hope that the little spurt that white fox took on last year would be main tained are doomed to disappoint- ment for the skins are gone way down. When it was pointed out to one fur buyer that the fashion of the hour was reverting to short furs for trimming and that mink were again in high esteem, the buyer de- clared that it would be years before this would affect the price, as mink are held by the millions in storage for a better market and this little stimulus would hardly be felt.

REPORTS SHOW DEMOCRATIC
CLUBS BEING FORMED

Jacksonville, Oct. 27 Reports
have just reached headquarters Of
the State Democratic campaign com
tmittee concerning the rousing Demo-
cratic meeting held last evening at
Trenton. The meeting was held in
the auditorium of the school building
and about $50 Democratic voters
were present
A Democratic club was organized
for the purpose of securing the sup
port for all of the nominees of the
ticket in the general election. Col.
R. w. Davis, Frank Clark, Jr., and
Senator Roland addressed the meet
ing. They were all enthusiastically
Iapplauded and each speaker stressed
the point that it was up to the Dem
ocrats at this time to rally to the
support of tie party which had been
in control in Florida for the past
forty years.
In this precinct the vote in the
primary was 4S for Mr.. Knott and
As for Mr.. Cats. 1t is believed that
Mr.. Knott will make heavy gains in

THE DIFFERENCE

When Sidney j. Cats came to
Lakeland recently several hundred
Knott supporters stood in the park
and listened quietly and respectfully
during his entire speech. In that
speech there were glaring mis-
statements and perversion of the
truth, and Mr.. Knott was abused and
slandered in the most shameful way.
But never once was Mr.. Cats inter
rupted, even by a question. He was
treated as this paper suggested he be
treated, as a guest of the city OF
Lakeland, entitled to a courteous and
respectful hearing in the presenta-
tion of his case.
But when Mr.. Knott-not in
public park, where all had an equal
right, but in a hall hired and paid
for by Mr.. Knots friends -essayed
to speak, he was interrupted by ir-
relevant questions, by jeers and cat
calls, by misconduct and rowdysm
that called the blush of shame to the
cheeks of those citizens of Lakeland
who felt any regard for the reputa.
tion of this city as an orderly, hos
pitable community.
1t is true that most of the disturb
ance was made by people who were
not residents of this county, and we
are glad. indeed, to be able to state
this. The principal disturber was
a notorious Socialist of Tampa, who
had no right to open his mouth in
Democratic meeting, but il is of such
political rag-tag and bob-tail that
Mr.. Cats supporters are largely COM
posed. A gang of hoodlums evident |
ly had been sent up from Tampa fol
disturb and harass Mr.. Knott. and.
If possible, to break up the meeting.
We are glad to know that these, and
not local people, were responsible for
the disgraceful conduct which dis
gusted decent people last night and
which will add many votes to the
big list which will be piled up for
Mr. Knott on November 7th. OF
curse, Lakeland has her proportion {

Of hoodlums, and some of these Joined
in last nights demonstration; but
these poor irresponsibles do not rep
resent Lakeland sentiment, nor the
element which makes Lakeland such
a splendid city.
The difference in the conduct of
the two crowds well illustrates the
difference in the two men who are
Offering for Governor, and the con-
trast that may be anticipated from
their respective administrations. Mr..
Knott, dignified, quiet, clean, court
ly. gentlemanly: Mr.. Cats, coarse,
vulgar, brazen, blatant. The Knott
auditors quiet, respectful, courteous;
the Cats crowd noisy, intolerant,
disorderly. The character of the
man and the kind of crowd he draws
to him is the best guage of what his
administration would be like. There
fore the choice is presented to the
people of this State as to whether
intolerance and lawless-
ness, as represented by Sidney j.
Cats, shall be in the saddle, or
whether peace, order and progress,
as embodied in w. V.Knott, shall
obtain

this section feel that the principles
of Democracy should be upheld in

weeks and workers will be supplied

some telling jokes, others, being more
serious, talking of the future of the

dispersed, each one thanking the
members for an enjoyable evening.
