deliver four lectures on the general
theme, The City Pastor and His
Problems. The selection of DR..
Nowlin to discuss this very impor-
tant theme is due to the fact that he
has been pastor of some of the larg-
est city churches in the south;
churches which have had their prob
lens, which have solved them and
succeeded in spite of them.
"Dr. Nowlin has accepted the in
yitation, and will spend part of his
vacation in August delivering these
lectures. Only short while ago, DR..
Nowlin was invited to Louisville,

Building Up of the Sunday School. I

Association will be that to take place
on Wednesday, March %, at Oeala,
attendance. In connection with this
meeting, the Polk County Good Road
Association is DESTROYS of making ar
ran gements to take on this trip a
limited number of taxpayers who are
still undivided whether Polk county
ought to bond for a system of good
roads at this time. The trip will be
made from Lakeland on the 21st and
proceed over the notorious Lough-
man Hills which have done so much
to advertise bad roads in Polk coun-
ty and through Kissimmee and Or
lando over Orange county brick and
Lake county asphalt roads and an
opportunity will be offered to actu-
ally see these roads and ascertain
the opinion of the people as to the
wisdom of the taxpayers in that
county in bonding for the purpose
of building them. The secretary of
the Chamber of Commerce will be
glad to hear at once from bona fide
seekers after this information who
will 90 on the trip which will be
orranped without cost to them

will go on to the State Good Roads

BOND ELECTION
FOR Good ROADS
TO Be HELD
EARLY IN MAY

The county commissioners held a
special meeting on Saturday, at
which time a full report was present
ed byt he Jaudon Engineering Com
pany, who have charge of the pre-
liminary survey of the roads to be
built under the proposed bond issue.
The engineers also presented a com
plete estimate of the work which for
asphalt or similar construction
would require about $i.4OO,000
The commissioners considered the
cutting off about 81 miles of roads
which had been included after their
first outline map, and representatives
of some of these sections stron ly
opposed this action which the com
missioners finally agreed to defer I'M
til bids shall have been received.
1t is the present purpose of the
commissioners to limit the construc-
ton, so far as they possibly can, to
a total cost of not to exceed ST.
