Florida Councils Growing
(Special to The Bulletin.)
South Jacksonville, Fla.—State
Deputy L. A. Usina of Florida reports
that the Knights of Columbus in that
state have shown a substantial in
crease since the first of July. The
Councils showing the largest indi

Miami, St. Petersburg/ Lakeland and
San Antonio, in the order given
above, but on a percentage basis
they are as fololws; Lakeland, an in
crease of 15 per cent; St. Petersburg,
11 per cent; Miami and San Antonio
each ten per cent. A new Council
has been approved for Fort Myers,
with a Charter membership of sixty
odd. The State Deputy has applica
tions on file for three or four addi
tional new councils. The above

quite rapidly.

of Florida was held in South Jack
sonville on Sunday, December 6,

of the year were formulated and ex
