to have my transmission bands re-
lined and new brake shoes put on, and
as the mechanic was putting on the
left wheel. he noticed II needed new
kew and in doing so broke out the
slot in the rear wheel shaft Well,
was up against 1t for ten days, as we
had to send to Detroit for this shaft
as il was 60-inch, for in the North II
is So inches. Yes, just ten DAYS to
get 1t from Detroit, Mich, to Cleve-
aDd-only 10 miles. We are fixed VI
and running as good as ever. | have
also read Mr.. H. l.. Collins write-ur
on Lakeland in which he states We
need more industries. He is right OF
this subject because | realized thif
on going around Cleveland in our car
People would ask us il they could gel

noon blew down telegraph wires and
so completely demoralized wire traf-
tic that no messages could be sent or
received by the local Office of the

day afternoon until o'clock this af-
ternoon. Tampa had no line out ex-
cept via Waycross. Night messages
for Lakeland were delivered this af.

has not been rectitied. The extent o.
the damage or any details pertaining
thereto were unobtainable this after

The dispatches today tell rs that
the present postmaster of Lakeland
has been renominated. This, Of
course, has been expected as there
was no opposition to Mr. Cresap. He
las made an ideal postmaster, oblig-
ing and considerate at all times, and
yet adhering strictly to the regula'
tions. He has a splendid organiza-
ton, and the service is very satisfac-
tory to the public, so far as this pa
per can learn. The Evening Tele-
gram has considerable dealings with
the postotfice and has gained some
insight into its workings, which ap,
near to us to be highly efficient.

The Rotary Club has taken up the
matter of an Associated Charities for
Lakeland, and committee from the
Club will confer with the merchants
and outline a plan for the movement
The gentlemen named to take up this
initial work are Messrs. W. W.
Chase, Frank H. Thompson and
Egbert Lusk for the Club, and Messrs
j. G. Owens and H. l.. Swatts for
the citizens. The great demand for
labor has made very little charity
work necessary in Lakeland, but there
is always some poverty and distress
and with the advent of the winter
season, it is thought desirable to pro
vide such an organization.

sTEFANsoN'S EXPLORATIONS

Vilhjalmur Stefanson, discoVerer OF
the "blond Eskimos' has spent over
FIVE years exploring and studying
barren Arctic wastes for the Canadi-
an government.
A new continent of large island
vas found by Stefanson on the trip
lust closed. The new land is north
of Prince Patrick Island and was
found in 1914.
Illness FASTENED the end Of the ex-
petition. Reports received from
Stefanson in 1917 said he hoped to
make further explorations in 1918
and 1919 and end his travels in 1870.
Instead of going northward, however,
Stefanson spent most Of the 1918
summer in a hospital at Fort Yukon,
Alaska, Just inside the Arctic Circle,
recovering from an attack OF typhiid
which brought him inland from the
Arctic in March 1918.
| Stefanson last saw the outside
world when he sailed from Victoria,
B. c., June II, 1913 at the head OF an
eXpedition in search of new lands
which had been reported to have been
seen far to the north of any explored
ara. He also intended to study the
topography and ocean currents of the
north and gather fora and fauna.
One of his original party was Cap
tain Robert Bartlett, who had been
Rear Admiral r. e. Peary's Arctic
sailing master. Another was Dr.. II
M. Anderson, with whom Stefansor
had studied at the University OF
Iowa About score of the men who
left with Stefanson have died fron
various causes, among them suicide
exposure and disease.
When the expedition left, it wat
aboard the Karluuk, an old steam
whaler. On its arrival at Nome
Alaska, Stefanson bought othe
boats and sent DR.. Anderson and
number of the party to the Corona
ton Gulf country to study the lant
and the natives. The main expedi
ton continued north in search of nev
shores
After the Karluk, carrying Stefan
son, rounded Point Barrow, up at tn
Corner of the continent II wa
gripped by the ice and apparently
frozen in for the winter. Stefango
and four companions went ashore +
hunt. When they returned the Kai
LUX had been carried away by
storm
Stefanson, believing the me
aboard, under Captain Bartlett, wer
7afe, dismissed the loss of the Karlu
as on incident and set out eastwar
afoot. The Karluk, it was learne
: later, was carried westward by tn
ice and crushed by the foes east Q
Wrangell Island, which is north @
western Siberia. The men took t
the ice and several we're never see
again Pressing eastward, Stefanso

derson party and in the summer G

What Fashion DEGREES for Spring Wear


Skirts cling to the form and are
made of little material, while sleeves,
on the contrary, have widened to vast
proportions. The latter, in any length
from half to full, flutter gracefully
about in many strange new ways,
with never an idea Of meeting and
fitting the wrists as they have done
In times past.
There is visible movement toward
making the fronts of dresses plain,
the backs bouffant, garnished and
sticking out. The sash that swathes
the form from the bust to line be-
low the hip is as prominent this year
as 1t was last, with the difference
that at present it is loose and vague
at the back, the butterfly bow form
ing the hustle line.
A decidedly new note among the
Paris showings is the long, loose coat.
All of the couturies are making this
coat to be worn with light summer
dresses. The results are so nightly
attractive that it needs but a turn of
the wheel to doom the knitted
sweater.
Perrysburg journal. (Perrysburg, Wood Co., O. [Ohio]) 186?-1965, 1918-03-28

This charming outfit has several
interesting features. The chechered
scarf and pockets and the blouse of
silk jersey, fashioned somewhat on
the Russian blouse effect, are sure to
please. 1t is very likely to be popu-
lar this spring and summer.
Afternoon and evening frocks have
necks that are round and low, the col
lars sometimes falling about the
shoulders. The line is simply COM
Portable one for warm weather, and
from general view one would never
guess that these bodices We're intend
ed for evening. Nothing is cut square
or pointed-the effect must be round
or even straight across the bust.
The newest among the new hats
show.7a an infinitesimal quantity of
trimming. Perhaps the war is re-
sponsible for this dearth, but, war or
no war, the toque is finished and COM
plete in its very baroness, and it
shows an elegance and simplicity of
which an over -garnished chapeau
could not be accused.

are most interesting. Everything
about them shows real regard for a
