elected. They are: President, w. w.
Chase; vice president M. F. Hether.

ELKS BUY FLAG
TO FLY IN PARK;
KILLER DONATES FLAG
TO THE ORDER

Comment has been made recently
on the fact that there was no munich
pal or public flag flying from the large
pole or staff in the Park, and at their
meeting last night the Elks took the
matter and decided to puprchase
suitable flag for this purpose. The
money was promptly raised by the
members of the Order, and due to
their efforts, fine new flag will soon
be flying it's folds in the Park.
Meanwhile, already handsome
flag is in service there, attached to
which is the Honor Flag won by the
city in the Third Liberty Loan Drive.
This was made possible through the
liberality of Mr.. A. B. Kibler, who
when approached for a contribution
by the Elks' Committee this morn
ing, donated fine flag he owned, Civ
Ing it outright to the Elks, who will
keep this for their own patriotic uses,
and give the new flag to the city
when it arrives. Meantime, they are
letting it wave in the Park, and Com
missioner O'Steen has agreed to de-
tail some person connected with the
city to attend to raising and lower
ing the flag at the proper hours.

annual MEETING
COLLINS CANNING CO.
SHOWS ENTERPRISE
IN FL0URISH|NC
CONDITION

The annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Collins Canning Com
pany Of Lakeland was held yesterday
afternoon in their Office at the new
plant. There was a good turn out
considering it was election day.
Those present were highly elated over
the, reports of the progress of the
company and the general appearance
of the plant. A sight worth seeing
was over thirty thousand quart bot
ties of their celebrated Southland
Clarified Grapefruit Juice in tier af-
ter tier across their building ready
for labelling and putting into cases
preparatory for shipping to all parts
of the U. s.
1t must be borne in mind that this
grapefruit juice is the OILY juice Oh
the market today, and in fact this
stock contained here in Lakeland Is
all the juice obtainable to supply the
demands of the entire country for this
season. Every plant in the State that
has attempted to manufacture this
juice has fallen down and the Col
Inns plant is atone in the field, with
a juice that meets the approval of all,
as is evidenced by the orders coming
in from all directions.
The following were elected as the
Board of Directors for the ensuing
year:
II. l.. Collins,
\ C. W. Howard,
j.. F. Wilson,
J. K. Melton.
l.. B. Skinner.
1t was unanimously decided to in
crease the capital stock to 100000
and to make large additions to the
building and plant.

HAYS MAKES PLEA FOR
REPUBLICAN CONGRESS

Will II. Hays, chairman of the re-
publican national committee. in a
statement issued here today. urged
election of republicans to Congress
for immediate preparation for re-
construction following the war
Republicans cried aloud in vain for
preparedness for war the state
ment said, in part. Republicans now
demand that the nation instantly pre-
pare for peace. The next Congress
will bear the great burden to that
end.
Let nothing remain undone which
can honestly be performed to make
republican success certain.
The country'S war load is great
Let us hitch up both great political
horses to pull it. And let US bring to
the great problems of reconstruction
the brain and heart of the republican
party
Immediate preparation for recon
struction problems Mr.. Hays said, is
one of three propositions that repub-
1icans have voiced repeatedly since
last March, The other propositions he
described as ito win the war now"
and for q peace with victory only"
adding that these remain paramount
The other proposition, he said, be-
comes more significant daily, for the
next Congress will be Il reconstruct
