neither of the former incumbents
were present when they were elect
ed, one being elected at the Miami
convention of 1905, and the other
at Tallahassee in 1906, when the
elections were changed by the new
constitutions.
with the revision of the consti-
tuition and bylaws, the election of
officers and other appointments to
be considered, Federation politics
will run high at the Lakeland con-
vention, and many club women will
get their first experience in matters
political and their education in this
line will be watched with interest.
1t is thus the women are being
trained to cope politically, and Incl
dentally get ready for suffrage.

Federation WOmenS'
Clubs COnveneS
Here Next Tuesday

The Federation Of Women's Clubs
meets in Lakeland next Tuesday,
Nov. II. and continues four days.
There will be about $50 delegates
present, who will be splendidly en-
tertained by the people Of Lakeland.
A reception, automobile ride and
six mile trip to the Country Club,
where the ladies will be entertained
at luncheon by Mr.. Hallam, will b.
features of the social entertainment
to be rendered the ladies of the Fed
Grafton meeting. The Tampa Tri-
bune has the following to say re-
garding the election of officers at
this meeting:
ut is rumored that Tampa
woman is slated for the Office of
treasurer of the Federation this
year. Tt has been many years since
the club women of Tampa have re-
ceived official recognition at the
hands of the Federation, and that
she should have place this year is
only justice. However, in view of
the fact that Tampa has been in the
Federation for more than ten years.
and that the work of the women of
this city has been conspicuous, it is
meet that this city should have
rightful recognition, but is the office
of treasurer a just reward for the
service rendered by the club women
of Tampa? To Tampa Is due the
school fire protection and fire drill
school law, the first child labor leg
islation, the effort to secure local
option compulsory education law.
This measure was introduced to the
convention of 1907 by Tampa
woman as were the others. Tampa
clubs have worked in season and
out to secure a law for women o..
the school boards, a mothers pen
sion law. in fact, last year hundreds
of letters were sent to the Legisla-
ture for that bill. There Is no
measure that has ever come before
the convention, or which the Fede-
ration has taken up that has not
had the earnest support of Tampa.
Now that the constitution is to be
revised, and four excellent vice
