VOTE is LIGHT
IN ELECTION ON
100000 BONDS

Lakeland is holding a double cleo
ton on the same issue today. the law
not being clear as to whether bond
elections shall be decided by the vot-
ers in general or by the freeholders
clone.
At the city hall, Mrs. y. S. Ivey,
Miss Clara Tomplinson and T. J. Fra
ley are On one side Of the long table
conducting the electors election,
while on the opposite side the free
holders election is being carried on
BY c. H. Williams. l.. b. Jones, e. l.,
Willoughby ard K. l.. Brown. Proper
~ holders have the rare opportunity
OF voting twice in one day.
The polls opened at 1870, and will
c'ose at shutdown, which is scheduled
to occur at G:15.
The vote is light, less than a hun
bred freeholders having voted at noon,
ard less than 125 on the other side
O. the table. a large number OF
would-be voters failed to get poll tax
receipts for 1921. and were therefore
disqualified.
There has been no pronounced OPP
position to the election. which is on
the 100000 bond issue proposed to
pay off the city's scattered indebted
ness and put municipal buying on a
cash basis for the future.

GOOD CROWDS ATTEND
MYRTLE ST. MEETINGS

Notwithstanding the GOODNESS of the
night, large congregation came to
hear Evangelist VIII Mcleod. The
evangelist was fearless in his denun~
citation of sin and wrong, his words
had a wonderful effect, for. when the
proposition was given to those who
wished to live better and truer life,
to come as a public confession to the
altar, q crowd came out that filled
the altar from one end to the other
and the adjacent front seats. Il was
more like the old-time revival meet
ing than anything we have seen for
sCme time. The tears, the confessions,
and the rejoicing brought back to
some the feeling that old-time Meth
odism was not dead.
These meetings continue every
night (except Saturday, at 1880, and
every afternoon at $3.50. However
cold the day may be the church build
ing will be kept warm.
We regret that these meetings are
being held when certain other meet
ing of useful kind are advertised,
but the Mcleod services had been ar
ranged for for a long time ahead. A
change could not have been made
without seriously mountaineering the
evangelist.

yesterday to take the place of JEFF
