NOTES AND MORTGAGE
FIRST N. T. CHURCH
BURNED LAST NIGHT

Last night was one long to be re-
membered by the membership of the
First Methodist church for it was the
occasion of the burning Of the notes
and mortgages of the church, which
has been freed from debt for the first
time in its history. The members
felt that with such loan off their
shoulders, they should commemorate
the occasion in fitting manner, and
therefore prepared an interesting pro-
gram, which was held on the lawn of
the church. Between 200 and 800 per-
sons attended this celebration. and all
declared it one Of the most pleasant
evenings they had ever enjoyed.
The program opened by the crowd
singing "True Hearted, Whole Heart
ed" after which the 23rd Psalm was
repeated in concert. Prayer was Of
fered by Mr.. A. G. Shaffer, followed
by a vocal solo rendered by Miss An
ME Laurie Warning.
Short talks were given by Rev. l..
d. Lowe Rev. j. Edgar Wilson and
Rev. j. D. Major relative to the re.
lief the congregation felt over the
load which had been lifted from their
shoulders; future plans for enlarge
ment along all lines of endeavor, and
generally commencing the congrega-
ton for their ever-ready and helpful
aid when necessity had arisen.
/ Vocal solos by Miss Ellen Hodges
and Mr.. G. H. King added to the
pleasure of the occasion. The pro.
gram closed with the burning of the
notes and mortgages by Miss Sarah

WORK PROGRESSING
NICELY On NEW
AVIATION FIELD

Lieut.. George Haldeman is up from
Arcadia today looking after the work
on the new landing field which is be-
ing put in shape on the Tampa road
just west of town.
This field is the one originally
suggested by the Chamber Of Com
merce when the matter of an aviation
field first came up, but. though 1t was
pronounced a good site for a field by
the officers to whom 1t was shown,
nothing ever came Of the inspection
and it was supposed there was some
objection to 1t. It appears, however.
that Lieut.. Haldeman never heard OF
this field until recently, and as soor
as he did he was enthusiastic as to
its adaptability, and steps were at
once taken by citizens and the city
authorities to get 1t into shape. A
crew of about rs men are at work
on the field, under the supervision Of
Mr.. J. L. Wilkinson, and Lieut.
Haldeman is confident that it will be
rated by the government as first
class field which will bring many
fers to this city.
The field is rectangular in form ex-
tending along the asphalt road 1900
feet, and being about 1000 feet in
width. This will make it easy for
ships of any kind and any number OF
them to land.
Mr.. G.. G. Rogan is taking up a
subscription to defray the expenses
Of work on the field and as this Ia
proposition that will be of much
value to Lakeland, 1t is certain thai
his requests for contributions will
meet with liberal response.
