AGreat Pacinst on Premature Peace.

There is In the world to-day no

Mr. WELLS Is convinced that the only
chance for the ultimate triumph Of
pacifism upon earth lies In the prose-

WELLS to be the duty of every rcifst
In Europe to give his life and an that

forever to the Prussian doctrine that

mental and military efficiency atones
for a multitude Of heinous sins.
1t would be advisable for the well
intentioned pacifists Of this country to
ponder the woyds Of this lover Of
peace, whose intellectual endowments
they must acknowledge and whose en-
thuslasm for n world free from war is
as great us their own. Mr.. WELLS

GOLF CLUB PROSPECTS
LOOK GOOD; COURSE
GETTING IN Fine SHAPE

work on the new Lakeland Golf
Club course at Scott Lake is being
rapidly pushed forward and within
80 days the club officials promise a
golf course of which Lakeland may
be proud. The club house is now
Under construction, and will be ready
for occupancy by the middle of next
month. Plans are being laid for a
suitable house warming at that time.
With the arrival of Professional
Bob" McNulty, the work of building
the putting greens is going ahead
under his personal supervision. also
the getting of the fair green in
shape. A big 5-ton roller has been
procured and will Immediately be set
to work at rolling the fair greens
This, following the soaking rain of
the past two days, should go a long
way toward producing as fine a fair
green as there is in the State.
OF the nine holes ready for play,
all but one have a splendid growth of
grass on them already, and this one,
the eighth hole, has been tcpdressed
with a fine black soil, fortified and
seeded again. Putting greens have
been marked off and will be top
dressed, fortified, and reseeded at
once and water will be piped to the
putting green's
The grounds around the club
house are being cleared of all brush
fright down to shore of the lake, and
, d landscape gardener is preparing a
plan for identifying this part of the
grounds which will give setting
which will take advantage of the
natural beauty of the location.
In speaking of the course Bob"
McNulty, the club professional said,
The layout of the Lakeland course
is one of the prettiest | have ever
, seen, and should go far toward, MAX
ing Lakeland one of the most pCpu :
lar winter resorts in Florida The
natural rolling country is ideal for
golf course and the ability to get
such uick growth of grass will
make the getting of the course in
shape a much simpler proposition
than we have in the north When |
see the results procured from such a
small expenditure of money | am as
tonished.
Tourists used to the fiat, uninter-
esting courses to be found in the
South, will find this course ideal,
and Lakeland will soon find its golf
course attracting large crowds of en-
thusiastic golfers from all over the
country"
Mr.. McNulty has made arrange
ments with the Lakeland Book Store
to display his line of golf accessories
and already has discovered several

game.
