We can promise this: If they will

to not come to place, as a rule,
merely on invitation. They generally
want site, or bonus, or a liberal
stock subscription. Some of those
we have failed to secure for Lakeland
wanted the citizens to finance their

people who grumble about factories

ATTENTION RAILROAD MEN

The Secretary of the Treasury, VINO
is also Director General OF the Raii-
roads. is asking the cooperation Oh
the people of the country and at THIS
time in the War Savings Campaign
and calls attention to the fact that
the railroad men ought to Literally
respond in their purchases and
pledges in view of the substantial in
crease of wages which has been
made them.
It is refreshing to note that some
Of our local men have practically
volunteered pledges for substantial
ily the entire amount by which their
salary has been increased for the
wear and doubtless, the large majority
Of the men receiving their pay at this
station would do likewise if the mat
ter was brought to them. Many OF
them are, however, hard to reach anc
it will be necessary to get someone
who knows how to reach them TO
give a little time to that work or to
depend on the voluntary subscrip-
tons of the men as above referred to.
Lakeland is $4,000 behind in her
quota of $1SO,OOO and if our railroad
men generally would do like some Of
them have already done, more than
half of this deficit would be met by
this body of workers alone.
This is somebody's job and it is
not too much to say, perhaps, that
it is the job of the man who can do
it best.
