TAMPA And ST. PETERSBURG LEAD in
BUILDING DURING MONTH OF OCTOBER
Lakeland Gets Into the Million Dollar Class for the First Ten Months
of the Year-Construcion Increases Throughout State

Church of Christ, Scientist, at cost
of 100000.
Almost two-thirds of the permits
issued in Jacksonville during October
were for dwellings, 81 of the SO per
mits having been for homes to cost
an aggregate of $203,200
Miami Leads
Miamis total for the first ten
months of 1921 is above the $4,000
600 mark, new construction author
lied in October having swelled it to
S4,313, 200. OF the October permits 81
were for dwellings while the largest
project authorized was the private
and maternity ward of the city hos
pital, to cost $4,000. The total for
the year to date is within $240.000 of
the total for all of 1920, which was
the record year.
Orlando during the first ten months
of 1921 was within sight of the total
for all of last year when the aggre-
gate value of permits for the twelve
months was 1854, 712. Permits is
sued in October exceeded those of the
same month last year by $4,000, the
largest proiet being an apartment
house 10 cost $32,OOO. Ihe actual
value of construction in Orlando will
greatly exceed the total value of the
permits issued as statistics in the
city building department show that
on the average the value OF a struc-
ture usually is about three times the
figure stated in the permit. On this
basis, if construction should maintain
the remainder of the year the aver
age during the first ten months, con-
sentative estimates of business
men place the actual value of new
construction here for all of 1921 at
approximately $5,000,000.
Lakeland Passes Million
Lakeland has entered the million
dollar class, permits for October hav-
ing brought the total for the ten
months of the current year to ST.

100000 while for October of that
year permits valued at approximately
$4,000 were issued, as against $780,
$50 for last month. The largest pro-
iect authorized in October was a res
;dence valued in the building permit
at $4,000 but which the owner eX
poets will cost approximately $685.

Jacksonville, Nov 19.-Although
Tampa led eight of the principal
cities of the state during October in
the aggregate value of building per-
mits issued, st. Petersburg was the
leader in new construction inasmuch
as in the former city III of the 367
permits issued were for repairs, much
to buildings damaged by the tropical
storm, while in st. Petersburg no
permits were required for the repair
of such damage. The value of Tam
pas permits was SALT ,42S while those
of st. Petersburg were $414,450, a
difference of only $2,97S.
Jacksonville, which had held first
place in the monthly list for several
months, was displaced by st. Peters
burg and Tampa, dropping to third
place with total of $370,927, with
Miami in striking distance with to-
tai of 1869, 300. The other four cities
and the value of permits issued in
each during October were Orlando,
1S9,375, Lakeland S126,45 Day
tona $685. and Sanford $32,150.
The combined total for the eight cities
was $1,9S5,605.
St. Petersbure's Total
st. Petersburgs total for the ten
months of the current year was 49,
912.145 and permits issued during the
first ten days of November raised that
figure to more than S4,000,000. The
value of permits in October was
greater than that of any single month
in the history of the city except dur
ing the record months of May and
June this year when the figure went
to more than 100000.
Tampas total for the first ten
months was swelled to 1851, 144, an
increase of more than $1,000,000 over
the same period last year. The value
of October permits was almost 300
per cent greater than those of the
same month last year when the to-
tai was only $139,696 The largest
single permit issued during the month
was for construction of the First

McGill University in Montreal,
The pride of Canada, is one hundred
years old. The century during
which it has functioned has seen a
great institution of learning grow
from very small beginning.
Previous to the American Revolu-
ion, Canadians who wanted higher
education came down to the states,
out after the severance of the COL
onies from Mother England, it was
natural that Canadians should wish
to educate their children in their
own schools.
AS result of effort to secure
free schools. the Royal Institute for
the Advancement of Learning was
established and King George the
Third gave directions for the estab-
lishment of schools where children
could obtain. at least, rudimentary
knowledge. These schools were, as a
rule, primitive affairs, housed in
nnc-room structures and presided
The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1921-11-19

over by teachers often far from
competent and always poorly paid.
A comparison of Canada's admir-
able free school system of today,
supplemented by great universities
in each province, shows the tremen-
dous progress of the past century.
The hundred years record of
McGill has Just been issued in an
Illustrated volume written by Cyrus
Macmillan, distinguished Can
adam author, and published by the
John Lane Company of New York.
The Reverend George Jehosaphat
Mountain, McGill's first president,
took office in 1924 while the uni
versity was still but name. The
first years of the new institution
were years of anxiety due to lack of
funds and dissensions. In 184e
there was but $500 available fol

salaries and this was divided
among the Bursar and two Lectur-
ers. The loyalty Of these early
teachers to the struggling uniyer-
sity is almost unbelievable. The
Lecturer in French received the
paltry sum of $13 as his share of
available funds for services from
January l to November 20, 1924.
He managed to exist, thanks to his
COW and his garden.
Real progress began in 1855 when
Sir William Dawson became prln-
cipal. He made a successful APP
peal to the people of Montreal for
funds and the stream thus started
has grown steadily in volume, al
Canada helping, reaching its climax
in the six million dollar drive of
1920. Today, McGill is on solid
! financial basis.
Sir William Osler, whose name
will ever be associated with J0nn
Hopkins University, one of many
distinguished graduates sent ~
McGill to important teaching posi-
tions in the United States.
McGill stands for the best in
Canadian life. Sir Arthur Currie,
its present principal, ranks high in
the hearts of all Canadians rot only
because of his war record as Com
mander in Chief of the Canadian
forces in the war, but for his work
in civil life. A new chancellor has
just been elected. Edward W..
Beatty, president OF Canadian
Pacific Railway Company, the
greatest transportation system in
the world. He is the youngest
railway president and already chan
cellor of Queens University at

INDIAN GRAVE YIELDS
 VARIED COLLECTION OF
 SKULLS AND ARR0WHEAOS

Rockford, April S.-(Special) )-J, L. Palmer, who lives in the western section of this county. near Mount Moriak, plowed into an Indian grave containing skull. bones, pots and beads of all descriptions.
 According to his statement a flint arrow head had penetrated the skull just above the left eye and remained in the back of the head firmly fixed with about half of the point out. As the grave was unearthed on William Wilson's place on the JackNon's trace, the assumption is that the Indian par ticipated in the Creek war.
 Doubtless the assortment will be added to the large display of Indian relics collected by John K. McEwen of Rockford This collection is said to be one of the best in Alabama, and is considered valuable.
 McEwen is one of the prominent merchants of Rockford. and displays his interesting collection of relics in his show windows.
