The Citrus County Fair he'ld at Le-canto for two days, was the most successful this county has ever had. The attendance was good, though rain the second day kept many people away. The exhibits in every department were fine.

Some beautiful knitted work attracted special attention in the fancy work display. Tiie school exhibits deserved special notice, particularly the domestic science display. Several kinds of "war breads" and "meat substitute" dishes were exhibited in attractive form. The girls' canning club exhibit was varied and of fine quality. The three highest averages were made by Irene Levins of Citronelle, Agnes Williams of Red Level, and Leona Martin of Red Level.

Sold by drusreists and dealers. Tampa, Florida Coo ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 18. (Special) A p1cture of Kaiser William will be- displayed conspicuously on Central avenue this week and while it will attract a lot of attention there will not be apy effort to tear it down lor the picture' is -to be used in the campaign' to raise money for the Red Cross.

It probably will be the first time that the kaiser's picture has used to further' the campaign against the Germans. The idea of using the kaiser's picture in this way was suggested by Paul who has been a hard worker for the Red Cross. A huge picture of Wilhelm will be hung from the third floor of the Central National Bank building. The will be blocked off in squares, each square to represent a certain number of new members in the Red Cross Society. When that number, of members has been secured a block I painted out and when the 5.000 new members have been secured the picture of the kaiser will have bren c.li painted out.

The people can tell, by a glance at the picture, just how muca money is needed to wipe out the kaiser and that will be the slogan of the campaign here that is to last until Christmas. Several hundred new members Niave already been secured and it is believed that St. Petersburg will easily raise its qu'ta as the are expected to join here. The committees solicit'" mcminia vere hard at work today. Making City t-iai Spotless St.

Petersburg is to have a white city hall, as the present barnlike structure is to be painted or covered with stucco. Bids for both will be received by the commissioners December 28. Extensive changes are to be made in the interior to provide two large auditoriums in which the state societies can hold their meetings. The county guard will also have its armory there. Civic Improvements Contracts totaling $63,313 were awarded to the Cal F.

Thomas Company, by the commissioners of St. Petersburg, at a meeting held Saturday night, the work to include construction of a seawall' on the south side, construction of a pier and pavilion ut the foot of Third avenue south and the erection of a Cameron tank for sewerage disposal. The other bidder was the J. B. McCrary Company, of Atlanta.

The contract is subject to the sale of bonds within fourteen days, to raise the money to pay for the work. The city sold $60,000 of its $180,000 of a recent issue of bonds but this money is to be used to buy -waterfront property and improve the city hall. Increased pay for firemen and policemen was provided for by the commissioners at the instance of Mayor Al Lang, who said the men could not live on their present pay. They money to meet the increased expense is to be taken from a fund appropriated to open the new fire station on Ninth street. This station will not be opened as men cannot be secured on account of the war.

Improvements in the city hall were ordered delayed, on request of the Red Cross, Society, to allow the holding of a society circus in the large auditorium. Instead of renting homes here for the winter many of the newcomers St. Petersburg are buying them so as to be certain to have places to stay when they come back. Local dealers reported four residences sold in one day all of them being bouses of considerable size. PORT TAMPA CITY PORT TAMPA CITY, Dec.
