HOnOred Mrs. Drane

At the conclusion of the evening SER
vice All Saints Episcopal church on
Sunday evening the members Of the
choir repaired to the rectory on in
vitation of Mr.. and Mrs. Curtis,
where, after a few minutes spent in
discussion of plans for special and
Easter music, l. V. Stevens made a
brief and very effective address in
which he paid tribute to the generous
and unselfish devotion to duty of Mrs.
Herbert j. Drane. Mrs. Stevens men
toned that Mrs. Drane is planning an
unusual trip to Washington in the
near future, later sailing for the Pan
anna canal zone with Congressman
Drane for a brief vacation and for an
inspection of the great canal. He said
that the choir wanter their organist
and co-worker to know that her serv.
ices have been appreciated. AS a
slight token of this appreciation, Mrs.
Drane was presented with pretty bar
pin set with pearls and sapphires. It
Was such surprise that the recipient
was almost unequal to the occasion
except to express her thanks and to
assure the choir Of her interest and
her good will in one and all.

lAKELAND,S WEATHER

Florida has again escaped
threatened cold wave. There were
indications late Saturday that this
section of the state would be Wis
tied by a heavy rain, to be followed
by the usual drop in temperature.
Although the cloudy were threat
ening to break loose at any minute
during the afternoon, the rain held
OF and at night the moon shone
from a partly clouded sky which
before midnight cleared entirely.
During the early evening a beauti-
full lunar halo was in evidence but
even this failed to bring the bad
weather. Sunday Was delightful,
the temperature ranging from 50 to
SO degrees. Late in the day the
wind veered to the west and north
west, the mercury during the night
gong down to Sc degrees. The
reading at 2 o'clock this afternoon
was So degrees. According to this
mornings weather report from the
Tampa weather station it will be
continued cloudy tonight and to-
morrow with not much if any
change in temperature. Lakeland
had a light shower this forenoon
and there were indications this af-
ternoon that there might be more
rain. New York safe and New Eng
land are under a blanket of snow
today with the temperature Is

GRAIN PLANS.

Satisfactory progress has BEEN made in the plans
for the cooperative marketing Of grain, the national con.
fefeooe IT Chicago having ratified the plans proposed by
the committee OF II which has been 1t work On the sub.
ject Tor several months. ...
just how effective these plane will be cannot we'll be
estimated until there has been opportunity for further
study, and their full value cannot be known. until they
are subjected to tho test OF actual operation. But the
progress that has beer made lis gratifying in that there
has been developed something concrete which will serve
as y basis for further action, and there lie every reason
for the hope that out OF the efforts now being put forth
will be developed something which will eliminate some
OF the waste whicni now occurs somewhere sbetwcen the
producer and the ultimate consumer, and which Will ea-
able the former to obtain more nearly an adequate re-
ward for his labor. and the latter to purchase tho neccs-
saries OF life at prices more nearly equitable.
One Of the Disadvantages attendant Oh the present
marketing methods Is the tendency that exists to rush
crops onto the market in vast Quantities just At the close
Of harvest. The charge is often made that speculative
interests. knowing that there will be a rush Of crops to
the market in the fall, force prices down at that time,
and force them up again after they have obtained pos
session of most of the marketable grain Of the country.
The market records covering a great number OF years
month by month absolutely disprove this statement. but
the fact remains that the present marketing practices
CAUSE congestion all the way from the farmers field
to the distant flour mill, with resultant Inconvenience
and loss. A great cooperative marketing organization
ought TO be able, among other important services, to re-
lieve this situation.

that the Board. OF Education will not ADOPT this. or any

SOCIALISM AND THE COAL STRIKE.

{ Two OF the important elements involved In the Brit
d ish coal strike are the reluctance Of the miners to accept
reductions from the high wage scales which prevailed
during the war and the determination Of a strong and
j militant element to force upon the country the public
3 ownership and consequent political control OF the mines
in order that losses in operation may be levied against
the general public in tho form Of taxes and the nation
may tlsuA be forced into further public ownership enter
. pEsML
The Socialist plans In this direction are shrewdiy
l0nneeiyed. II wages arc kept up and coal prices are
kept down. the appropriation of the mines by the gov
kennnank is inevitable. Either the owners must sell to the
aUuuneuk for what they can get, or they must abandon
properties which they can nAver hope to make self -sus-
,ksintnE II the government takes over the properties
operates them on the basis Of high wages and low
tcaal prices. which u Of course, what Win be insisted on,

aseIn further pilns up Of deficits, and an accelerat1on of
tthe rafe at which still more properties will pass under
AGovefmnent control.
j In a somewhat lass definitely Organized way We
anhsye the same problem presented in this country. The
jim order to obtain the goods that were so urgently need
led, o1pedients of every kind, including the granting of
government subsidies were employed. The needs which
these plans were developed to meet have passed, bat the
methods appeal strongly to the self interest Of particu-
lar sroupR and because Of this element Of sef interest
the Socialists find much Of their campaign work per
formed for them by others.
The surest way to put an end to this menace is to
cut business 81 every kind loose from governmental
&leaAing str1nGS, let every enterprise stand on it, own
feet. and permit those which are capable Of prospsrins
ito prosper in a measure commensurate With the real
assr,tce which they render.
