PLEASING NEWS FOR MOTORISTS

At this time, when so much is said
about high prices and profteering, it
is indeed relief to read the news
about tire prices being reduced. Tires
are now sold by the larger manufac-
rurers at less than ever. Tire prices
are not only back to pre- war basis,
but have gone beyond that, and are
cheaper than they ever were sold.
1t is also u well known fact that
tires are built better today than ever,
because the older tire factories have
improved upon their manufacturing
methods.
There are great many "Gyp'' tires
on the market, but the continued re-
duction in the price of standard tires
will have a tendency to eliminate
some of the makers of these Gyp
tires because the margin between the
price of a standard tire and Gyp is
not great enough to cause people to
gamble on this class of merchandise
A Gyp tire is one made by an ire
sponsible factory, and if guaranteed
at all, the guarantee is only as good
as the factory making it.

consumption of gas has been steady

Every housewife knows the many

CIGAR BUSINESS
BECOMING GREAT
LOCAL INDUSTRY
One Company Manufactures Over
Million Cigars In a Single
Year

The cigar manufacturing business
is an industry in Lakeland that de-
serves the support of the merchants
and buying public. A very large per
cent of the sales of Lakeland cigars
are to surrounding towns, which
means that this is outside money that
is being brought into local channels
of trade.
B. F. Fitzgerald, manager for the
Mi Principe Cigar Company says his
company alone manufactured over
three-fourths million cigars last year
and that the other factories in the
city, the ]. E. Bass company and the
A. H. T. company made a similar
amount or more. Mr.. Fitzgerald said
We worked ten cigar workers last
year and distributed a pay roll of
SIG, 900. Our sales for 1920 ran over
$45 900, of which amount $4,000 was
/ brought in from outside sources.
| feel sure that the other two cigar fac
tories of the city employed equally as
many or more each, making about
thirty-five cigar workers employed in
Lakeland during 1920. OF these some
have bought homes ranging in price
from $2500 to $500. Don't you thing
il would pay the merchants of Lake
land to boost cigars manufactured al
home, and wouldn't it pay the con-
sumers to demand a Lakeland made
cigar? | believe you will agree that
it would"

HAPPINESS.

Happiness and love are the choicest
prizes in the game of life, but you can't
secure these prizes by any artificial
means. They will only lead you on a
wild goose chase and never be at
tanned. Modesty, simplicity, sweet
ness, sentiment, and sense are genuine
qualities that will make you attrac-
tive, admirable and happy.
The world is full of new-fashioned,
slangy, dance, fancy, foolish girls who
married for style, stunts and society,
and their married life is failure, worry
and regret. They do not realize, poor
things, until it is too late, that money
and luxury are not enough to bring
happiness. When this truth comes
home TO them. there is nothing left but
disillusion, heartache and sorrow.

GIRLS, DON'T
VAMP YOUR
TIME AWAY
BY Lewis Kennedy.

TT is not my intention to pen the de-
tails of feminine popularity, but
it is my aim to impress you with
the fact that modesty and simplicity
are indispensable fundamentals to the
girl, who must avoid the reefs of dis
appointment and enjoy the blessings
reserved for true womanhoOd.
1t is obvious, the average girl is in
clined to exhibit herself like a filly ;
she likes to display feathers and frills,
and CAB about duds, good times and
society. Sooner or later her esthetic
nature is stunted and she falls an easy
prey TO the smOoth-tongued libertine.
Unfortunately, this type of girls can
only contribute to the moral, mental
and physical inefficiency of the race.
They deserve pity, if not the contempt
of every right thinking man.
1t is sad to see II girl existing for no
other purpose but to be vain, dash
ing, powder and paint vamping crea-
ture. Evidently she is victim of men
tai imbecility, and by right of the law
of attraction she is entitled to place
among those who existed in n state of
periodic gloom and depression. We
extend to her our sympathy while we
ignore her ignorance.
Don't deceive yourself; no normal
man with sound judgment, sense and
good taste cares about your fluff,
paint, feathers and frills; but we GER
tainly appreciate, respect and admire
q, int
and simple girls. They are like flow
ers among weeds. They are the pride
of our race.
You cannot afford to be mere tin
cessfully keep pace with the prograss
and evolution of an advancing civiliZa-
tion. You are product by law and
not by chance; to live n sane, rational
and useful life is the aim of your be-
ing. Are you not aware of the fact
that - per cent of the frivolous, aim
less, drifting useless, goOd-time element
are just about as energetic and pro-
pressive as piece of garbage thrown
into metropolitan ash can? If not,
you are still in your morbid sleep.
Wake up; be the ideal girl that you
promised your mother you would be
some day. Conventionalism will only
sap your vitality, wrech your nerves
and ruin your health. Free yourself
from the thraldom of artificiality and
vain glory be your true natural self
Stop drifting with the crowd and blaze
trail of your own.

%HuAra Fox pnoonc71orS

No one who attended the show

Night Horseman' at the Strand
Theater yesterday can complain that
there was any lack of action, OF
thrills, of stirring entertainment;
and for, those who like a touch of
he~art-reaching romance Tom Mix
supplied that. too. This picture. di-
rected by Lynn F. Reynolds. is so
good and so fast that at it's close
one feels G. yearning for more.
The picture, produced by Fox, is
intensely human and the character
contrasts have been finely and deep
ly drawn. Each character stands
out like a b~as-ralief. Take Buck,
for instance. Buck is the ranch
foreman. He is in love with Kate,
but he is not so dumb as not to
know that Kate loves Whistling
Dan (Tom Mix, and that she will
wait for him to return when the
wild geese come back in the autumn
And when Dan does return, Buck
seeks him to bring him back to the
Cumberland ranch where Kate, with
her Dad, awaits him. Buck finds that
Dams ungoyernable temper has led
him into a row in which lie has shot
the town bully. And he comes upon
Dan nursing the very man he shot.
Dan tells Buck he'll come to the
Cumberland ranch later. Buck de-
cides there is only one way to get
Dan back. He takes it-takes' a
chance with death. He calls Dan a
low hound and slaps him in the face.
Then he gailopS away to the ranch,
knowing that Dan will follow to kill
him. And when Dan arrives Buck
lets Kate get between him and Dams
ready gun. But he accomplishes his
purpose.
Some folks contend that such
men as Buck come only from h
wild and woody west. Wherever
they hail from, such men are rare
