has been possible to prepare such an

There is on display in the Main
street window of the Chamber of
Commerce Office the model of South
College grounds and buildings which
created such a sensation at the recent
annual Methodist conference in Or
lando.
This model has been brought from
Orlando by F. H. Trimble who is the
architect for the board of trustees of
Southern College and who has
planned the buildings that are to be
erected here in Lakeland. 1t was
from these plans and drawings that
H. Bierce of Tampa made the model.
1t is interesting to note that so far
as known, this is the first model of
the kind ever made in Florida, In
-cidentally also the smallest scale
model that Mr.. Bierce has ever COM
pleted. His experience covers many
years of such work in the largest
museums in the north, including the
famous Metropolitan Museum of Art
in New York City. The material
from which the model was construct
ed, is strong fibre and will stand
considerable handling although the
model is not to be touched by those
inspecting it and, in fact, is protected
by wooden screen.
1t is so comprehensive and true to
type that it covers every detail of the
project even to the undulations of the
sloping grounds on the north of Lake
Hollingsworth so generously provided
by the people of Lakeland and other
friends of the institution. In order
to secure this accuracy Mr.. Trimble
had careful typographical survey
