DR.. STACY RECEIVES NEW CAR

DR.. c. |, Stacey, pastor of the First
Presbyterian church, is the happy
possessor of a beautiful Overland
Sedan car, the gift of members of his
congregation. A winter visitor to
Lakeland started the fund for the
new car by giving five hundred doll
lars, and the rest was promptly forth
coming. This is substantial token
of the esteem and affection with
which the pastor and his family are
regarded by his people here. The
car was presented informally and DR..
Stacy is already riding around in it.

BAY FISHING BY PARTY
FROM CITY OF LAKELAND

Yesterday morning P. +. VanDIu
sen, of Michigan. R. l.. Cannon, of New
York, W. H, Bishop. of Illinois. Frank
Brock, of Georgia, Hiker, of Indiana,
with Uncle Wess McRae acting as
pulled out of Lakeland for Hillsbor-
ough Bay in search of big fish.
Arriving at the proper time and
place. we placed ourselves under the
command of Captain Warner, the ex-
pert navigator. who very soon landed
us at the fishing grounds.
When men go in search of the tinny
tribe very soon they become very ex-
cited and a spirit of rivalry soon de-
velops this trait is also common
among women) and they at times use
language that is very expressive.
The anchor had just hit the bottom
when Uncle Van and Hiker were at it
teeth and toe nails. The man from
Michigan landed the most fish (by
one), the Indianian the greater num-
her of pounds. 1t was mick and
tuck between the Illinoisian and
Georgian.
The most fun came when the New
Yorker and Uncle Wess got down to
business, the former was rather han
dicapped as he, had often fished but
had never caught a fish The latter
is a past master at the sport. When
the New Yorker hooked a big Spanish
mackerel, the fun began. He was sit
ting down, but the terrific jerk
brought him to his feet, he braced
his feet and held on. Uncle Wess
laughed so hard that he almost fell
Oft his box into the bay. The New
Yorker held on and by good manage
ment and some very expressive Ian
guage that was suitable for the occa-
sion, landed the mackerel over Uncle
Wess's head. Wess laughted all the
way home. Finally the New Yorker
came back with, You can laugh all
you please, but | landed 100 per cent
more fish in number and weight than
you and l am an amateur and you
past master. .... VI
Hiker had the honor of catching the
largest mackerel of the season in
Hillsborough Bay up to date, accord
ing to the captain.
We pulled out for home with 60 fish
II of which were mackerel; total
weight 100 pounds. There was plenty
of sport, fun and exercise for the day
and we wish Mr.. Editor that YOU
would take a day off and try fishing
on the bay.

Famous Author Is in Wrangell Gathering Data for New Book

Dr. Young himself counts With Muir in Alaska" his best book. Embodying as 1t does a friendship with one of the great men of the earth, the story is one ot absorb ing interest and beauty. Against the background of thrilling adven- ture, wonderful description and the experience that came to the two on their mountain climbing and their voyages into uucharted waters, stands out the character of Muir, great in his knowledge ot natural laws, exulting in the glory and the beauty of it all and never forget. ting the Power to Whom thanks for it was due,- man who could stoop to be thrilled by a tiny flower in his path though the tow ering peaks and the awful glaciers were calling him.
 pr. Young took part in three stampedes. The Klondike Clan, novel, tells of the stirring times when the rush to the Yukon gold mines was on. It is illustrated with interesting pictures and con- tains some wonderful descriptions ot the North. It is a story that is worth reading-and re-reading.
 Adventures in Alaska is ser ies of personal experiences. The author, bent on his mission of es- tablishing churches in the new con- munities, was ever Tn the front ranks of those who were able to press forward and he gives us of hIs store of memories stories that prove that underneath the greed and the lawlessness there was a vast amount of goodness and un- selfshness. His keen delight in mushing over the snowy distances with his dogs and the description

It is an established fact that a man who has lived in Alaska for a time is not satisfied to remain away if be leaves. There may be advantages elsewhere, - bigger business. keener competition, more life, greater conveniences; there may be lights and music and laugh. ter or whatever a man may crave and hold worth while, for time. but now and then comes the long, ing for the vast solitudes, the rug ged mountains, the sting of ice and snow, the swish of tapping waters, the tang of the sea-and he who may, comes back.
 s. Hall Young came to Wrangell, Alaska, in 1878 when he was just out of college, to do missionary work. He remained here for ten years. He went back to the States but the North called him again and again and as a result of his travels and his work in the Territory. With Muir in Alaska .' The Klondike Clan" and Adventures in Alaska" were written. After years spent in the States, far from the scene of activities and experi- ences that form his most precious memories, he has returned again to Wrangell where he lived and loved and ministered to his brown sheep as he affectionately calls the Indians who comprised his flock.
 His books are especially inter esting to the people of this locality because they know him best and because the folks and the scenes of which be writes so entertainingly are familiar to many; but they are decidedly interesting, too, to the chechako and to the dweller in the States who has still to see the great land of the North.

vXIE make good paints like this-to save w you money; and we've put 72 years experience into them.
 We use pure PIONEER WHITE LEAD, pure linseed oil, zinc and color in scientifically exact proportions.
 The lead base is made SO fine that it will pass through a silk screen with 10000 meshes to the square inch. That means covering capacity and ease of spread.
 A special device super-purifes the lead, making it "Whiter" so Fuller paints are exceptionally clear-toned. All ingredients are thoroughly mixed in specially designed machines, so the paint is always uniform and smooth.
 The result on the house is beautiful, elastic, tough, protective coating that stays, if properly applied, five or more years, keeping the wood like new.

How We Build
 the Structure of Good Paint

Some people figure paint economy as Cost per gallon" That is wrong. For "cheap" paint doesn't cover so much surface-you buy more gallons. "Cheap" paint is harder to spread and you have more labor cost. So the "cheap" paint on the house costs just as much as the best of paint.
 Don't allow surfaces to rot-it costs less to paint them.
 "Cheap" paint on the average starts cracking in twelve months, while the best paint stays intact from five to ten times longer, if properly applied. Figure the cost per year of service and decide which paint you want to use.
 We spend more to make paints for your economy. Be sure you get them when you paint.
