MRS. C. L. ANDERSON'S
FATHER, MAJOR IZLAR, IS DEAD

Mrs. c. l.. Anderson has the deep
est sympathy of her Lakeland friends
in the death of her father, Major L.
lar. of Ocala, which occurred Friday.
or his death the Ocala Banner says
Tie sadness which has come to the
melancholy family circle, caused by
the death Friday afternoon, is shared
by the whole community, in which
he as lived for the past fifteen years,
and who SO endeared himself to all
VINO knew this kindly, Christian gem
tleman.
Ii death were an earthly status,
heartaches might never end But
such is not the case, and such was
not the majors berief. He believed
nj the fullness of life hereafter, in
the eternity and goodness of God. He
loved his flowers, his sunshine, his
stars; his seasons came and went
like good molly fr1enos. IL was the
gentleness of his nature that brought
loving inquiries of his welfare from
day to day through his long illness.
With Major Izlar the fitful fever
OF life is over. He sleeps in the land
where all is peace. His soul at last
rejoices in realms where there is
neither sickness nor sorrow, and
where death is no more.
Major Izlar is survived by his Wild
ow and four children, Mrs. s. C.
Buist of Blackville, s. c.; DR.. A. L.
Iylar of this city; Mrs. Clifford An
derson of Lakeland, and Mr.. valmore

LAKELAND TO GET
$50 Of IHf GUNS
NOW STORED At
TALLAHASSEE

This morning distinguished party
oreakfasted in Lakeland, and as a re.
suit OF this meeting. it was decided
that $50 of the guns now stored in
Tallahassee for Home Guard use
should be stored in Tampa and the
ether $50 be stored in Lakeland.
Composing the party were Governor
Sidney ]. Cats, Attorney General Van
{. Swearengen, Commissioner of Agri.
culture w. A. McRae, State Comptrol.
Ter Ernest Amos; State Treasurer
Luning; State EngineerEllis, ex-May.
or c. T. Frecker, of Tampa, Senator
Doyle Carlton, w. G. Brorein w, F.
Stovall. E. D. Lambright, DR.. A. C.
Hamblin, Henry E. Snow, Sheriff A.
j. White and Capt. Elmer Webb, OF
Tampa, and Senator o. M. Eaton, OF
Lakeland. The party were guests OF
Mr.. Frecker at breakfast at the Co.
lonial Cafe, and during the breakfast,
the subject of vital Importance to this
section, the distribution of the 500
guns, was brought up.
After considerable discussion, Gov.
ernor Cats stated that he would leave
the distribution of the guns up to
Congressman Drane and appointed a
committee composed of Senator Eaton,
Col. w. F. Stovall and Senator Doyle
Carlton to wait upon Mr.. Drane and
secure his ideas in the matter. Mr.
Drane positively refused to have any,
thing to do with the distribution of the
guns, and it was finally decided to
leave the matter in the hands of the
committee. with the result that $50
of the guns will be stored in Tampa
and $50 in Lakeland.
The Governor and his party of State
officials, were enroute to Fort Myers,
from which place they will leave on
an inspection trip of the Everglades.
The Tampa party motored up in cars,
to interview Gov. Cats about the
guns, leaving soon after the break
fast for Tampa.
While Senator Eaton felt that per-
haps he might get half of the guns, he
found that this was impossible, and
was able to secure $50, which with
the guns the Commissioners will buy,
will fit out the Home Guards of the
county very nicely with sufficient
equipment.

STATE REALTORS
TO MEET next
IN LAKELAND

The next State meeting of the Flor
ida Realtors Association will be held
in the City of Lakeland on Oct. 3rd
and 4th, 1918.
The membership Of this organiza-
tion increased over 100 per cent dur
ing the past year and with the work
accomplished stands fair 60 increase
still more rapidly in the future. Ar
rangements for increase of member
ship were made at the meeting just
held at st. Augustine and though
only 35 attended the meeting It that
place, still this was the largest meet
ing 80 far held.
The one subject of greatest inter-
est before the meeting was the dis.
cussion of the Torrens System Of
Land Registration and it was the
concensus Of opinion that legisla-
tion to this effect should be stimulat-
ed as much as possible.
Other matters Of interest were the
discussion Of advanced prices of all
building material. There is no doubt
but that lumber and other building
material are now as low as they will
81 for many years to come and that
they will steadily advance whether
the war ends now or continues for
some time.
At the next meeting to be held in
Us keland it is the object of the AS
sociation to have a full exhibition of
al realty papers necessary for tho
proper conduct of business in this
line and it will no doube be the most
interesting and instructive meeting
for all realtors.
