dence of Misses Walker and Burns

November with his wife to spend the
season, this being, his second visit to

with him, formed warm attachment
for him, for he was a genial, gener-
Gus. well informed gentleman, with
whom it was a pleasure to converse.
His body was embalmed by Under
taker McClelland and, on Tuesday
morning, accompanied by his grief
stricken wife, started on its journey
to Columbus, where it will be in

In few minutes the committee on
resolutions presented the following,
which was adopted:

Misses Sadie and Cecil Card gave
us two songs by their own accompani-
ment which was fine.
Mrs. Safford's reading was very
much enjoyed as all her offerings are.
The Misses Card and Mrs. Foley
gave two musical selections. Lovers
of good music had a treat.
Then out of the cloak room came
an old fashioned couple, an old lady
and old gentleman. The lady's gray
locks, bonnet and dress; the gentle

before us to sing, and they did not
choose any of the silly, tiippant songs
of recent days. They sang Maggie"

could. 1t was a treat to get a glimpse
of the days of long ago, too far back
for most of us to remember. 1t was

two bids and the bidders will agree
to take the bonds instead of cash for

from Lee county and was received
with enthusiasm, which characterized
the meeting throughout. Incidental

NJ. Weeks, at her home on Durrance

ed to wear some symbol representing

noon was made interesting by the
guessing of these. Afterwards social
conversation and readings contribut-
ed by guests sped the hours. Deli
cious refreshments were served con-
sisting of sandwiches, tea. cake, and
grapefruit sticks. This is very
earnest and enthusiastic group OF
women who have thoroughly enjoyed
the study hour each Sunday morning
through the winter. Several of the
members are winter visitors who have
contributed largely to the interest

tensions of time for filing returns

BOARD APPROVES PLAN TO
ENLARGE SCHOOL PLANT
Appropriates $3.50 to be Used by
Trustees in Making Plans for
Bigger Building

At the regular meeting of the
Board of Public instruction Monday,
tentative plans for the improvement
and enlargement of the Punta Gorda
high school building were presented
by the trustees, whose ideas were ap-
appropriated $3.50 to be used for the
purpose of securing plans, sDeciftca-
tions and estimates of cost of the
proposed improvements.
The enlargements and improve
ments contemplated in the plans of
the trustees include an addition
housing an auditorium that will seat
between 700 and 500 people, this to
be on the ground floor; and above
the auditorium a number of class
rooms and a gymnasium. This build
ing would be connected with the pres
ent building. The present auditori-
UNI, which is inadequate and unsafe
in case of fire, would be cut up to
make four new class-rOOms, with a
wide corridor running between the
new rooms and the present class
rooms. The stairways, which are
both too narrow, too steep and a
source of danger in case of fire, would
be remodeled so as to make them
much wider, less steep and reason
ably safe.
The proposed improvements would
put the entire plant practically under
one roof, afford ample facilities for
an up-to-date high school that would
probably take care of all needs for
the next ten years and would give
the town a splendid auditorium, at a
minimum of cost.

of public instruction are published

TOURIST CLUB ENJOYED
FINE PROGRAM TUESDAY
Delightful Program of Musical Num-
bere and Readings Was Enjoyed
by Large Gathering

One of the best all round meetings
of the season was enjoyed by the
tourists at their hall Tuesday even
ing.
Mrs Hancock, president of the
Civic Association, was there and
thanked those who helped build the
board walk out to the bath house last
Saturday. To show the ladies' ap-
preciation of help given by the tour
lists, Mrs Hancock stated that new
bathing suit would be loaned each
helper who wished to take a swim
and initiate the new work. Call at
Mrs. Hancock's residence if you wish
a briny swim before you leave Punta
Gorda Right here we wish to state
that the tourist men were a credit
to the organization, both in num-
Der and work done and the civic
ladies gave us dinner fit for king,
sandwiches, fish, all kinds of delicious
pies, coffee and everything. The
tourist and civic association are work
ing along together so nicely and
agreeably, socially and otherwise
who knows but what some day they
may erect a nice club room together.
However, as Col. Stewart stated it
is something for us to think about
and consider for the future.
Now we must get back to our
Tuesday meeting.
Chairman Dubois announced that
he has twenty-five extra copies of the
directory. Any one wanting one be-
side the one furnished you by the
club can obtain it for the nominal
sum Of ten cents.
The members of the club regret
the death of DR.. Voorhees, which oc-
Cured early Sunday morning. Mrs.
voorhees, left with the remains Tues
day morning for their home, Column
bus, Ohio. The secretary is in in
structed in behalf of the club to send
letter to Mrs. Voorhees, expressing
our sympathy.
The entertainment committee then
offered Loves Old Sweet Song" by
the Glee Club.
Miss Sadie Card gave a reading
Speak up Ike and s'press yourself
which was given as only Miss Sadie
can. Then she gave another piece
because the audience insisted. You
can start laughing when Miss Sadie
begins a funny reading but you can
never quit laughing when she quits
speaking.
Mrs. Roy also gave us a good
laugh when she gave a reading about
Eve and Adam.
Little Miss Marion Harrocks did
