Keep Lakeland Beautiful will focus on three areas within the city to improve, beginning with IH Clubhouse, 4523 Canada Road, on May 2. Teams will clean around the facility, walking trail and lake. On May 9, teams will concentrate on cleaning up Huff N Puff Road, picking up trash. The final cleanup campaign will be held on May 16 at Zadie E. Kuehl Memorial Park, 3065 Yukon Dr. A group will clean and update portions of the park. Volunteers can participate one day or all three days. All that’s needed is a pair of gloves.

For those without electricity, irons heated by liquid fuel (gasoline, kerosene, alcohol, etc.) were available. Two of such irons are the 1903 Monitor iron (left )and the Coleman kerosene iron (right; ca. 1930-1932). These irons had an attached cylinder for the liquid fuel that was burned to provide a self-contained, continuous source of heat. These two types of liquid-fuel irons are on display in the kitchen area of the Rachel H. K. Burrow Museum.
