A VOID IN NATIONAL LIFE

The passing Of Col. Roosevelt
leaves void in the life Of this ma.
ton that cannot be filled-his person.
ality was unique. Our president OF
the Winter Visitors Association has
suggested a memorial service for Mr..
Roosevelt in the room occupied on
Main street, and has appointed com.
mittee to provide for it. So next
Tuesday evening is the time decided
upon, and every one, Of whatever
name or size, is invited to come and
join with us in this service. A pro-
gram will be formulated and be Civ.
en- out later 1t is proposed to have
short talks by several Of the clergy Of
Lakeland and others on the life work
of ex-President Roosevelt, inter.
sperced with music Of some kind.
As this is being done all over the
country We here in Lakeland don't
care to seem remiss in the matter.
