CHAMBER COMMERCE
ACTIVE ALONG
VARIOUS LINES

Several important matters are
keeping the Secretary OF the Cham
Der of Commerce exceedingly busy
these days: First, active steps in
securing the data and cooperation
necessary to secure connection
from Lakeland with Winter Ravens
one hundred mile boat course. Com
petent engineers who know the land
lines and lake levels and others who
have had to do with similar schemes
say that this plan is easily practic-
able, both morally and financially,
and from this on every moment pos
sible will be given to the develop
ment of this proposition, so that by
next season, in addition to our own
many local attractions, we can Of
| fer our tourists and visitors the
charming and delightful opportun-
ity afforded by hundred and thirty
mile boat course through chain of
Polk county's magnificent lakes; a
trip changing every few moments as
another vista opens by passing from
one lake to another. Winter Haven
will doubtless be exceedingly inter
ested in this proposition which will
then extend her own present hun
dred mile course and afford direct
connection by water between the
two towns.
Second: A splendid chance of Sc
curing the next national convention
of the Farmers Educational and Co
operative Union of America If there
is one thing the farmers in this sec
tion are long on, it is opportunity
and. on the other hand if there is
Tone thing they are short on, it is CO.
operation. If the results of such a
meeting only gave us the informa-
ton from successful farmers along
this line it would be a big thing fol
Lakeland and Polk county to have
this convention. but as every section
of the United tSates is said to be
represented in this organization il
would be big thing simply as al
advertisement and a commercial op
portunity.

S Agedahl are in St. Ann hospital for medical at tention. The last three named men were overcome by the smoke while trying to rescue Roen.
 The day shift had set off their last shot and left the mine and the contractors on the night shift. anx- ious to get to their work, failed to wait the necessary length of time for the powder smoke to clear from the top of the raise As they went up the ladder, Roen was overcome by smoke. Those following gave the alarm and while making desperate eG .forts to rescue Roen were themselves
 eeane
 For some reason Roen's hold on tho ladder failed to loosen when he was overcome and. he was clinging to tt- rounds when finally rescued, after ii sg2s too 'ate to heip him. Desperat- ecorts to resuscitate him were made but they were unavailing
