paper read by Mr.. H. L. Collins
of the Collins Canning Co., at Rotary
Club meeting, August 10, 1879
Mr.. Chairman and Fellow Rotarians.
There is certainly no subject tina.
we are all more vitality interested in
than this subject that we are to dis
cuss today-that of Industrial Lake
land. To my mind, Lakeland is de-
pendent, or will be in great meas
ure, for her future growth upon in
dustries she is able to secure. In
dustries and factories of various
kinds are as essential to the growth
of this city, as is the air we breath
or the water we drink, for our own
individual development.
A great deal has been said at tho
various meetings have attended
about the tourist and the great bene-
fit he is to Lakeland. I gran: he is
a benefit, but I feel that the average
tourist has been greatly over-esti
mated.
Please understand me, / am not OPP
posed to doing all we can to bring
the tourist here, but I am opposed to
making that one idea paramount A
few days since the Chamber of Com
merce held its meeting as some OF
your gentlemen will recall, and at
that meeting the chairman asked those
present to state in few words what
leach one thought was the greatest
need of Lakeland, or what could be
done to help Lakeland the most. Out
OF the 30 to IS present, II had an
opportunity to speak, and not one Of
the whole II got outside of the tour
ist idea. Not another idea was even
preached until the meeting was about
to adjourn, when Jour good friend
Chase did have another think, and
touched on the idea of factories.
| believe that the bringing here of
permanent residents is of far great
er Importance than the bringing to
Lakeland of a greater or less number
Icf tourists. And to bring and hold
permanent residents we must have
something for them to do. And we
can not give them anything to do, If
we do not have factories and COM
mercial enterprises to employ them.
Practically every city that really
amounts to anything is built up by
factories of some kind. We all know
that. 1t takes no argument to con-
vince you of that fact | am sure.
The idea has been thrown out at
some OF our meetings recently that we
cannot have factories because we have
no raw materials. I grant you we
are not situated as happily as some
ether cities, but I believe we have
enough on which to build a business
