TENS OF THOUSANDS
OF WINTER TOURISTS
Will Be In Florida This Winter And
The Vanguard OF This Mighty
Host Is On The Way

Jacksonville, Oct. 10.-Railroad and
hotel men here today declared that
signs as unerring as the migration of
geese southwark indicated the tourist
season is near at hand.
The coolest morning since last win
ter is here today. There were snow
fiurries yesterday in Nashville, Tenn,
with a temperature of 46 degrees.
Trains bound for st. Petersburg and
other points in South Florida the last
few days have been carrying extra
Pullman cars to accommodate the
traffic. Gasoline filling stations on
the main highways into the state are
reporting more automobiles with L.
cense tags of other states bound south
than ever before at this time of year.
One feature which attracted atten-
tion was a press dispatch from Chi
cago in the morning papers reporting
a two cents per gallon cut in the price
of gasoline in that city. This is taken
to mean that the storing of automo-
biles for the winter is already under
way.
TEMPERATURE TOPPLED
The weather bureau said that PEN
sacola was the coolest city in the
state last night with so degrees.
Gainesville and Tallahassee each re-
ported 81 degrees and Jacksonville 60
degrees. Somewhat cooler tonight is
the forecast.

Mayor Hefner, he said that he was
not familiar with the law on the sub.

The Kiwanis Club Of Ardmore is the
youngest of Ar1more's civic clubs
It is composed largely Of the younger
business men.
The last year has been a very sue
ccssful one with T. b. Orr as pres +.
dent The meetings have been inter.
es'iNg and the attendance good.
Most OF the year has been srent IN
cementng the friendships SO that the
club viii staud on os trm and solid

the city.
The club has been q he front i0
al Of tha different appeals made to Arl-
more citizens for help and it has
shown IN every way that it wants to
support all the good causes confront
ing Ardmore citizens.
Their activity connection with
the Christmas funds was particularly
noticeable and the Klwanians take the
credit Of having raised more money for
the Salvation Army Christmas tree
than any other club in town.
E. II. Royer was elected president at
the annual meeting and 1922 starts off
with every indication that it will be
the best year OF the klwanis Clubs
work so far.
Municipal Play Ground
The first project attended to viii
be the establishing of the municipal
playground for boys and girls for
which the Kiwanis Club will make it.
self responsible. A block of land has
already been secured for this purpose.
It adjoins the TO ball park, and the
plans are being effected for the install
lation of this splend work.
Mr. Royer is examining play ground
devices and a full set of the very best
equipment for play ground will be
installed. AS soon as n good rainfall
mo stems the ground enough To put
il in working condition the ground
chosen for the site will be levelled and
all the boys and girls will be invited
to be ) guests Of The kiwanis Club at
the opening o. the nark.
That the Kiwan ans have adopte ;
this particular piece Of work for their
chief undertaking for 1922, does not
mean that they will not carry cr other
lines of endeavor. They are plan
ming some special programs for their

secretary, they have every reason to
believe that the Tuesday noon meet.

source of inspiration to the men Of
Ardmore who have resolved to sail the
season of 1922 with the Kiwanis flag
at their masthead.
