R01AR|ANS WILL BACK
CHAUTAUQUA, AND
FAVOR GOLF COURSE

Lakeland Rotarians pledged them
selves to support five-day Chautau-
qua. to be put on early in April by
the Redpath Chautauqua Bureau. a
committee being appointed to insure
the sale OF the necessary number of
season tickets and to generally boost
the proposition. The Redpath Bureau
is the largest and strongest in the
country, and Mr.. G. Rucker Adams,
who has been conducting the Lake
land Chautauqua for number Of
years, turned his interests over to the
Redpath people this year owing to
his inability to get down here at this
time. Some time ago Mr.. Adams
sustained an accident or injury and is
now at a hospital in Cincinnati where
he recently underwent an operation.
He will come down to Lakeland as
soon as he is able to travel, and it
is understood will superintend the
Chautauqua in which he retains an
interest.
The rehearsals of the Kirmess were
reported as going fine, and those who
have been watching the progress of
the proposition say it will be the
most beautiful spectacle ever present
ed in Lakeland.
The matter OF golf course near
the city came up for discussion be-
ing presented by Mr.. Beamish of New
York. Rotarian j. E. Melton stated
that he would donate land for suit
able course. and others pledged them
selves to support the project.
Rotarians were urged to get behind
the movement to raise funds for the
band concerts which have been a
source of so much pleasure to every
body, and committees were appointed
to solicit for this purpose.
A rare treat was afforded the men,
hers when the program committee
presented Madame Ribekova the no
ted singer with Vessella's Band, who
sang FLORIDA Nights" exquisitely to
the enthusiastic enjoyment of all
present. The following is the text o.

Sweet with the breath Of orange trees
Kissed by the warmth of noon.
Whispering palms and fragrant pines,
Lulling your heart to rest,
After the day the cool night comes.
Florida nights are best.
Florida nights are lovers nights,
Nature is all atune,
Mocking birds sing their mating song
Under the southern moon,
After the sun has dipped from sight,
Into the golden west,
Tho you may search the whole world

goes on. government grows more in

For instance, it takes two days or
dinarily to send a letter the same dis
lance that a person travels in one
day.
The person travels under private
corporation rule, while the mails are
under what we call public service.
1t is well known that telephone and
telegraph service de~teriorated under
so-called government operation.

regulations and not subject to compe-

hustle to hold their jobs upon merit.

ENDORSING
AN INDUSTRY

What's a fellow to think? In face
of knowledge that Chambers of Com.
merce in large cities get behind new
industries, giving building sites anC
helping in every way to get a pay
roll started, the man at the head OF
Reno's Chamber of Commerce told
Winnemucca business men recently
it is absolutely against practice for
prise which has stock for sale. His
reasons seemed obvious and were &C
cepted as final.
Now comes an automobile as
sembling' company to Reno and puts
on a stock-selling campaign. In half
page advertisements stock subscrip-
tons are invited and an endorsement
by the Reno Chamber of Commerce
is published in the ad, signed by this
same man whose statement here had
an effect of temporarily stopping an
enterprise which might mean another
payroll for W~innemucca.
What's a fellow to think when he
has heard Los Angeles never turned
down but one manufacturing enter
prise, because there was stock for
sale? 1t might be interesting to learn
whether Reno offered any induce
ments to the man wanting to start
business here at that time.
Luckily, Winnemucca is geographi-
cally so situated the prospects of the
plant could not be taken from here.
But supposing we had duplicated Los
Angeles experience and because our
Chamber refused to get behind a pos
sible industry, to the extent of in
vestigating it worth, had lost a mil
%lion-dollar payroll. We might then be
willing to follow Los Angeles ex-
ample in sitting up and taking no
tice thereafter.
Don't jump at the conclusion this
newspaper is advising purchase of
any stock. The Silver State may take
a stand against Indicating of all
sorts, in nea future, that will be
drastic and in such language none
will misunderstood. But we do say
investigate, when Winnemucca's wei
fare Is concerned, whether it be in
dividually or through the Chamber
of Commerce.
These things mean more business
for Winnemucca, and more business
means more money for all of us, and
that's what most of us are after.
