nothing but a nervous wreck. Could
not sleep, eat or rest properly, and
felt no desire to live.
Three bottles Of Peruna made
me look. at life in a different light,

MRS. TRAMMELL'S ADORE SIS

Madam President, Ladies of the
Convention, and Visiting Friends:
am very glad of the opportunity
to be present on this occasion and
greet so many friends. 1t is a de-
light to meet with you who come as
representatives of the women Of
Florida whose hearts and talents are
engaged in bringing about better
things for our communities and our
State. i shall enjoy being with you
and knowing those whom have not
before had the pleasure of meeting
! am especially glad that | can be
present when the State Federation
nee is here in Lakeland, my home
II, town-where spent many happy
ieirlhood days, where SO many
friends and friendships were made
auG enjoyed, where | met him who
was to be my life companion, and
where my husband and I launched
our little bark on the blissful sea OF
happy married life; here where
the people have been so kind to us
both, and so loyal to him in his eff
forts and seemingly SO pleased with
any successes of his. My heart
glows with yladness that I am privi-
legged to attend this convention. but

it is as the full cup which runneth
over" because the meeting is in
Lakeland.
Lakeland in her rapid growth. her
fine schools. her splendid churches,
with her most creditable daily news
paper, her civic pride and enthusi-
asm and her magnificent public
spirit is the very embodiment Of that
spirit which actuates our clubwork
endeavors. She may receive our
State Federation within her gates
with much pardonable pride. Six
short years ago when my husbands
election as attorney general took us
to Tallahassee to reside for season
our little city here-though pro-
eressing-could not be compared
with what it Is today. Nestled as il
is among its mirrored like lakes
with a live, progressive citizenship
always alert in every commendable
movement-it is an ideal place for
our Federation to assemble.
I am so glad, too, to attend the
meeting of the State Federation be-
cause of the great work 1t is doing
and the achievements it represents
In the future as in the past, ex-
pect to see much good come from the
efforts of our local clubs and this
Federation. | am happy to be with
you and can assure you of my most
hearty sympathy in your delibera-
tions.

Girls Canning
Club Exhibit
Now On Display

accomplished, even by persons of
limited experience, in the way of the
production of canned and preserved
delicacies made from Florida pro-
ducts, awaits the visitor to the Girls,
Canning Club exhibit, now on dis
play In one of the store rooms of the
klbler Annex. This room has taken
on the appearance of a well stocked
lancy grocery, and both in the oual-
lty of the articles and attractlvepess
OF the packages, the displays will
compare favorably with those made
by the best fancy dealers in the
country.
Ihe room is decorated with the
club colors, yellow and red, and Miss
Verda Thompson, the accomplished
agent for Polk county, to whose ul-
firing and intelligent labors the
magnificent results are due, is in
charge. courteously explainins 10
the admiring visitors the many id
teresting exhibits. Perhaps the
most striking OF these is that of Miss
Floy Brown, of Homeland, who has
" different kinds OF products nut
up in glass, including 81 varieties of
Jellles, besides preserves, sweet
pickles, relishes and other appetiz-
ing dainties. This young lady has
put up this season 1,aOO cans of to-
matoes and $50 cans of guavas, be-
sides great variety of other fruits
and vegetables.
Another splendid exhibit is that
of Misses Myrtle and Vera Hancock,
of Kathleen, who also have a great
variety of products in glass, besides
peaches and tomatoes in tins. Spe-
cial interest attaches to their exhibit
for the reason that these young la
dies planted and raised the fruits
and vegetables shown in their dis
play.
Misses Sarah and Syble Carter, of
Lakeland. also have a fine exhibit,
and they, too, grew the products for
their display.
Other excellent displays are those
of Miss Helen Driggers and Misses
Sallie and Pearl Lowry, of Lakeland
these young ladies having splendid
exhibits of canned tomatoes, guavas
etc.
Lineberger Brothers, proprietors
of the Lakeland Cannery, have fine
display of their products, consisting
of tomatoes, beets, sauerkraut
guavas. corn and tomato soup and
guava jelly.
C. E. Langley, of the Dixie Can
ming and Preserving Co. of Auburn
dale, has a very interesting display
of grapefruit products-grapefrui1
phosphate, sundae, and the grape
fruit canned under their specia
process, which gives it to the con
sumner with all the freshness ant
flavor with which it came from thu
tree. This company is also canning
vegetables of various kinds.
There are also many interesting
individual displays Of jellies, pre-
serves, etc., among them some beau

to be the prettiest ever put on dis
