Lakeland has 3 banks, which are con- servative, yet thoroughly progressive; several miles of brick and asphalt


streets and is about to let the contract for several miles more; also a fine system of sanitary sewerage; an effi- cient light and water plant, municipally owned, and which has lately been im- proved by the expenditure of over $100,- 000, making it one of the best in the state; an ornamental "white way", cov- ering the entire business district, a modern fire-proof hotel, costing nearly $200,000; an auditorium seating 1,700; a new railroad passenger station and freight depot; a city hospital just com- pleted; fine up-to-date business houses, carrying stocks adequate for all the needs of a town much larger; several industrial plants which with the At- lantic Coast Line Railroad shops gives employment to a large number of peo- ple and furnishes a large monthly pay- roll. The water supply is of the best and purest anywhere. Modern sanitary sewerage system assures the health and comfort of the people, and there is no
