Vile highway between Waycross and

the dread of motorists using that
route.

that an official OF one of the loca !
concerns yesterday made the trip
from Waycross to Jacksonville in
two hours and fifteen minutes. The
distance is shade over seventy
miles.
The one bad place in the road now
is between Callahan and IIilliard, Fla,
where, because Of work on tho main
highway, there is a dctour through a
swamp. In wet weather the detour
is difficult TO run over. but within the
last few days it is said to have been
improved considerably and the mo-
torisL who made the fast Waycrosa-

CITY c. E. UNION
ELECTS OFFICERS
FOR COMING YEAR
Miss Helen Stacy As President Sue
ceeds David Watt Castles
Fine Report Given

The city Christian Endeavor Union
held an interesting meeting at the
First Christian Church Sunday even
ing, at which time the following Off
GERS were elected for the new year:
President, Miss Helen Stacy; vice
presidents, Miss Gertrude Redgrave,
Fred Sandh and Miss Mary Weaver;
secretary-treasurer, Miss Myrtle Case.
This was the first meeting of the
city union since April. when Dixie
Endeavor Day was observed. All the
societies were well represented and
an excellent program was. enjoyed.
The report on what the Lakeland
Union has accomplished in it's short
life was interesting and encouraging.
This union was formed only after the
delegates had returned from the con-
vention in Gainesville in 1921, and
has grown steadily since, that time.
This success is thought to be due in
large measure to the untiring eff
/ forts of the popular and efficient re-
firing president David Watt Castles,
under whom the union has forged
ahead and accomplished more than
]
had hoped for. 1t was only the feel
ing that, after his unceasing work of
the last year, he should lie relieved
OF the cares and responsibilities OF
the Office, that induced the members
to allow him to retire.
In the newly elected president, Miss
Helen Stacy, it is felt that a worthy
successor has been found, and that
with the cooperation of the various
societies and the earnest effort of ev-
cry Endeayorer, the Lakeland union
is expected to go on to greater prog
ress in the year to come.
The program of Sunday nights
meeting was as follows
Topic of meeting "Earnestness"

Song No. 81, followed by sentence

that the quarrel is with organized

the governments own statistics which
show that it costs not less than 1900,

thankfully to the fact that the sio.l0
meeting was opened with prayer and
that it was in a spirit of prayerful-
ness and of sincerity that the men
now out are striving to attain victory
for better citizenship. He paid a
warm tribute to President Jewell, a
Florida cracker" who, he said, Is
standing on principle and will ever
remain true to his fellows. In con-
clusion he wished to sound this clar-
ion call: Fear God and keep His
commandments for this is the whole
duty of man." And to this he added
That ye love one another as l have
loved you" Until men were able
to put aside greed and selfishness he
said there could be no lasting peace,
no trust, no harmony.
Both orators received a tremendous
ovation by the appreciative audience.
Before calling on Rev. L. G. Bost-
wick to make the closing prayer Chair
man Clark asked the public for a
continuance Of their good will and
their cooperation, stating that the
moral assistance of the people of
Lakeland in the present struggle is
greatly priced and appreciated.
