organization requiring a knowledge IF
world business. Their microscopic
viewpoint can only focus on the most
picayune details, to the neglect of the
essentials.
THE big point of that we are really
at war entirely escapes them. Accus-
toned to the army post life of peace
times, with the greatest duty of the
commanding officer to see that letters
are written with the margin on the
left of the page correct to the fraction
of an inch, they simply cannot adjust
themselves to the necessity of action

THE selection of this place for "a

connected with its selection ever had

weather reports. Rain every day, de-
pressing and demoralizing. When
speed is the big essential, the boys are

Already he has wasted days in causing
them to return to their barracks to
put one on; NO matter if the scene of
their operations is miles away.
This is the attitude of mind that
you find all through the organization,
and there is a rich field for construc-

up to ridicule such performances"

A commercial organization, to sue

fearless disposition. While there are

WAYS of one mind, the majority rules,
and the board always considers itself
obligated to the membership and will
be guided by 1t.
Regardless of politics, religion, or
financial rank in the community, the
Lakeland Chamber of Commerce
binds together in a common bond the
men Of Lakeland who can and will do
things for the good Of the town. They
are the men, largely, who have In
their hearts and brains visions Of a
better, greater and more beautiful
Lakeland, a Lakeland where the av.
erage standard of citizenship will be
higher, prosperity even greater and
more diversified, and where civic
pride, which is the foundation Of a
city's proper growth. will dwell in
the heart and speak from the lips OF
every citizen, high or low.
Only occasionally do we come face
to face with a knock at the Chamber
Of Commerce, and then It is a real
pleasure to discover that the knocker
seldom knows what he is talking
about, and has never done anything
for that which he is berating, so what
does a knock amount to anyway, ex-
cept as It is so often a boost and an
exposition Of the ignorance of the
knocker. So whenever you hear the
whine Of knocker, smile, attribute
his knocking to a bad stomach, and
forget 1t.

activities during the past year, has
reached out in every direction where
it could be of any possible assistance.

tant destructionist, who continually

destructive citizen, without any sug-
gestion or reason or remedy, will be
asked to give some suggested cure,
showing constructive thought, before
he will be given any credence. The
building Of a community may be Tx
ened somewhat to construction work
of almost any kind. After buildings
are erected, there are those who,
while not having put forth any effort
toward building the structure, are
prone to be very severe in their crit
cism of the work performed by 9th
ers. So also 1t is pregnant exper-
fence on the part Of those who en-
deavor to do something definite for
community betterment, to find the
same type Of people who, while not
lending a hand themselves, take
pleasure somehow in criticizing the
work of others. OF such we should
be as patient with as we can, for they
are no doubt handicapped with some
malady that may disappear as they
are persuaded to become interested
in unselflshly doing for others.
Every citizen of every community
owes his hearty support to his COM
mercial organization. The man who
will not lend his brains, his energy

these are lacking) to the efforts Of his

Here are some of the statistical
epigigrams:

OF coal each day, at the end of the
year the saving would amount to 49,.
100000 tons.
IF every housekeeper during the
six winter months would have saved
one furnace shovelfll of coal a day
1t would amount to 25,0O0,OO0 tons OF
coal.
These savings combined would
amount to 40 million tons, which
would almost wipe out the national
shortage of so million tons.
"The Fuel Administration offers
practical instructions for the eco
nomical use of coal in stoves and
furnaces
ION stoves and fireless cookers
are recommended as coal savers"

material welfare of the country, no
less than its political ideals even

struggle.
DR.. Garfield the president and
those associated with them in the

the use of coal for certain purposes
