LAKELAND FIRE LOSSES
PROMPTLY MADE GOOD
BY INSURANCE COMP ANIES

About three weeks ago the house
of Commodore Summers, 915 East
Morton street, was damaged by fire.
Prompt action of the fire department
saved the building from entire de-
struction; but it was found that loss
to the amount of $3.50 had been sus-
tanned. Mr.. Summers held a policy
Of insurance in the Connecticut, of
Hartford, on his furniture. and one in
the Glens Falls, Of New York, on his
home, both having been taken out
through the agency of Hetherington
& Holworthy. Within ten days af-
ter the fire a draft covering damages
to the furniture was handed Mr.. Sum
mers by Hetherington and Holworthy.
and today another draft for $3.50 from
the Glens Falls was turned over to
the insured.
Hetherington & Holworthy repre-
sent ten of the strongest and most
reliable insurance companies in the
world-companies that pay their loss
es with promptness and liberality.

LAKELAND WEATHER

If clear skies and delightful
breezes constitute ideal Easter
weather conditions, then Lakeland
can lay claim, along with other
communities in this section OF Flor
ida, to having had the real thing on
Sunday. But rain is badly needed
in South Florida that there would
have been no shedding Of tears had
Jupiter Pluvius turned loose his
reservoir in the clouds and deluged
groves and truck farms. But the
sky remained almost entirely clear
throughout the day and night. The
Easter temperature range was 81
to 81 degrees. Last night the mer-
curry again went down to 67 de-
grees and at noon today recorded
81 degrees, the wind being out of
the east. AS for prospects OF need
ed rain, there is nothing certain.
The terrific storms raging yester-
day and today over the Ohio valley
and the Great Lakes may bring
thundershowers to North Florida
but the forecast for South Florida
says nothing about rain.
