$40 Pounds
OF Clothing To
The BelgianS

Lakelands splendid patriotic re-.
Spouse to charity on all occasions was
never better eXemplified than this
past week, when call was issued for
garments for the Belgians.
Lakeland was called on for 2S9
pounds-and today's express carries
to National Headquarters 1920
pounds of the very best garments,
suits, shoes, etc. imaginable! That
is the Lakeland spirit Great credit
lis due Miss Eugenia Bouchard, Chair
man of the Committee in charge of
collecting the garments, as it was
through her untiring energies that
much of the clothing was secured
The clothing sent was all good. There
were IT'S pairs of shoes and many of
them hardly showed the slightest
wear. There were many perfectly
new mems suits, and the entire 5000
pounds showed very little wear.

Mr.. Dear Sir: | received your very
interesting and most welcome letter
a day or two ago and | assure you
that 1t made me feel good just to
know that you were interested in me
to the extent of taking the time to
write real newsy letter i am glad
to know that there are some who in
quire about me, and assure You that
to me my most cherished and valued
asset is my friends; to receive letters
like yours from those upon whom there
rests no obligation to write Is con-
elusive proof of their interest and
friendship. | am pleased to know
that Lakeland has so nobly responded
to the aid of the Liberty Loan, Red
! Cross, and Savings Stamps, the COM
munity is to be commended and es'
pecially are you who assumed the
responsibility of soliciting these
funds. I thoroughly appreciate the
fact that all the patriots are not in
the army, and that without the sup
port. aid and assistance of patriots at
home this army of Uncle Sam could
not be maintained. So all the praise
and glory of war is not due the fight
ing forces.

ALIENS MUST
HAVE PERMITS
a. \
Cannot Leave The Country,
After September Is Ex-
cept By Permission

Washington, Aug. 17.-Freedom of
departure from this country of aliens
by means Of which number Of
dangerous enemy agents, have been
able to escape from the authorities
since the United States entered the
war, will not be permitted, after Sep
signed by President Wilson and an
executive order, both Of which were
made public last night by the state de-
partnent. The proclamation and
executive order puts into effect the
alien control law passed by congress
last May. . - 4
Under the executives order aliens
after September IS, viii be required
to obtain permits before leaving the
United States and additional re-
strtctions will be placed on the en-
try OF aliens into this country. At
tempts to evade the draft, through
leaving the country which officials
believe Will increase with passage OF
the bill extending the draft ages, will
be rendered less, easy Of accomplish
ment by the new restrictions.
Heretofore, American citizens
have been required to make applica-
tons for passports in order to go
abroad and to explain to the salts
faction of the department of state
the necessity Of their trips, while
aliens have been permitted to de-
part freely without making applica-
tions for or explaining their trips"
said an explanatory statement issued
by the state department. -
The new law now places aliens
in this respect on q basis similar to
that OF citizens.
''It is believed that many aliens
have been leaving the United States
as German agents, carrying ipfor-
nation abroad for the use of the en-
envy. The new law is designed 70
prevent the departure of all such
enemies of the United States.'
