THE CITY WITH A GREAT FUTURE

One Of the most influential and
best informed men in Florida, a man
of affairs and who keeps his ear on
the ground, remarked the other day
that in his opinion LAKELAND will
have a population of over $4,000 in
less than ten years.
Do you know what this means Mr..
Visitor and Investor? 1t means that
LAKELAND city property will adj
vance in value and that now is the
time to buy home or a lot.
LAKELAND is the metropolis Of
Polk County, the County that leads in
phosphate production and CITRUS
FRUITS; the County that can be
easily made to lead in syrup and
sugar production, live stock, dairying
and general farming. WHAT A FU-
TURE HAS LAKELAND! WHAT A
FUTURE HAS POLK COUNTY AND
THE STATE OF FLORIDA.
The legitimate real estate man has
been great factor in the develop
ment of Florida; he is likewise a
strong factor in the upbuilding of
Lakeland.

MAY BAR WOMEN
SHAW OF NEW OR
LEANS DENOUNCES SHAMEFUL
STYLES OF WOMEN, ESPECIAL,
LY IN CHURCH.

"The disgusting" modern attire of
women was made the subject of an
implied threat by the Most Rev. ]. w.
Shaw, Archbishop of New Orleans, to
exclude from the house of God women
who attend church in immodest garb.
His Grace writes in the course of
pastoral letter: THE shocking dis
regard in modern female attire for
the elementary principles Of decency
is simply disgusting. The disgusting
realism of modern fashions is fast
extinguishing in the hearts of all
undetermined men that spirit of rev
erence and chivalry which regarded
women of other days as something
mystic and divine.
ooh, the pity and shame of it, that
so many Of our Catholic women are
the servile imitators of the immodest
fashions. To such an extent have
some of them lost the natural mod
esty of their sex that they hesitate not
to come before the Holy of Holes in
such scant attire as must make the
angels veil their faces with their
wings. We have seriously debated
with ourselves whether or not we are
not bound in conscience to exclude
such women from the house Of God.
