HERE FROM TORONTO

Mr.. and Mrs. II. n. Hatcn and
their two sons, Raymond and Ed
ward, arrived in Lakeland Thursday
evening from their home in Toronto.
This is their first visit to Florida and
they have come to Lakeland with the
idea of making this city their winter
home. Their first Impressions have
been decidedly favorable because OF
the cordially of the welcome eX-
tended by all whom they have met
and by the beauties of the city and
its surroundings. incidentally, Mr.
Hatch mentioned the fact that on the
trip south the passengers on the train
discussed Orlando and Lakeland more
than any other Florida city as the
most desirable locations for the new
conner.

LAkELANp,s WEATHER

Visitors to Lakeland these early
autumn days think they have come
to Fairyland. Bright skies, gentle,
cool breezes and the glorious set
ting of lakes and hills and orange
groves combine to present some
thing quite unusual to the unini-
tiated and so stories are going
back home of the glad surprise as
a reward of the trip to Lakeland
with footnote something like
this: do pack up, close the
house for the winter and hurry
down here where life is really and
truly worth living But, on the
quiet, we need rain in this Sec
ton of Florida-need it very much
SO should showers come along in
day or two it will be understood
that growers of oranges and grape
fruit and housewives. who have
planted winter flower gardens will
be made happy. Last night the
wind shifted from the east around
to the south, west and finally to
the northwest, causing the mer-
curry to slide down the tube until
60 degrees was registered at day
light. The noon reading in the
Mum Park kiosk was II degrees.
Continued fair weather is on the
program for tonight and tomor-
row.

which Dicky had escaped for a little
while. Mai. Grantland and 1 have
been consulting our watches. and

to get these blossoms home in time

hooves US to hasten. OF course, II

I stopped and looked around. smil-
ing a bit maliciously while the mem
bers OF the little group looked at
their own watches, caught their re-
spective breaths and rushed to the
wagon with the last boughs they
had been gathering. I saw Maj.
Grantland adroitly slip TO Edith's
side and pick up the pile Of blossoms
near her before Dicky. who was still
looking in establishment at his
watch, could forstall him. At the
same instant tucked my hand IN
der my husbands arm.
"Come over here quickly and help
me get my pile up" I commanded
In half-coaxing, half-mandatory,
wifely fashion, but when we were
safely out of earshot OF the others I
dropped the coaxing tone and spoke
as one man or one woman to an
other.
You called me to account the
other day." 1 began, quietly but
measuredly, "and I think I took it
good-naturedly; in fact. I don't mind
telling you that I'm quite grateful
for it. Now it's my turn. and I'm
not going to mince words about it.
I don't think you're playing fair
either with Jim Paige or-Or-Edith
by a performance such as you have
been giving this morning"
Dicky stared at me as II were
some one he had never seen before.
In fact. he never had seen me in just
this mood. Never, in our lives to-
gether, had I openly referred to any
attention he had given another
woman. And then hooking mischief
followed the establishment in his
eyes.
"Still championlng the innocent
and downtrodden, 1 see" he gibed.
But don't you fret your little head.
