got their start in a business way by heinz Lightning Rod agents through the east and middle western states twenty and thirty years ago. The lightning rod agent was particularly an American institution, so much so that the adventures and honors of the occupation brouht forth the master play of American rural life The Lightning Conductor" It is on this that the picture has been based and so splendid an artist as Dustin Far rum chosen to lead the vanguard of the stars that appear in the picture. There is humor and pathos and thrills all in the five reels. The picture was taken amidst the most beautiful scenery imaginable and as near the conditions represented in the play and book as it was possible to make them, were fitted around the picture.

It is contrary to the teachings and the spirit of the Christian religion and at variance with all the purposes of enlightened government. It clothes the traffic with the cloak of respect ability and bribes the voter with rev enue We hold now, as in the past, that such traffic cannot be legalized without sin.
 The time has come when the line should be definitely and sharply
 drawn between the supporters and the
 partners of this traffic and those who
 stand for it's abolition. A man cannot,
 as a Christian citizen, sign a petition for a liquor license, rent property to be used for the purposes of the traffic, vote for it or with it, or fail to make his citizenship count as an elector in protest against the traffic's contln- | uance. To do any one of these things is to betray his citizenship, the re- | ligion he professes. and the church

Speaking before two large church audiences here yesterday. J. Frank Hanly, nominee of the prohibition party for the presidency, again set forth the issues on which that party is entering the campaign that ends in November.

 50 speaking, what have you to say of the character of this traffic and of it's effect upon the American people and American institutions?
 It is the most prolific cause o1 insanity, crime and poverty; the most insidious despoiler of legitimate busi- ness; the most corrupt and demoraliZ- ing influence in politics, and the most dangerous enemy to human welfare ir all our civil life.
 Craftsmanship, ecclesiastical ant civil, has denounced it: science has condemned it: business is arraying it. self against it.: politics is struggling to be freed from its grasp; labor | seeks escape from its degrading. mer- ciless bondage, and the embattled na- tions of half world find it a more deadly foe than any they have met on wars red fields.

SEAMAN'S MISSIONS

At the meeting of the Wonlan's
Club Of Jacksonville, Dec. 9th, the
.philanthropicde partment had charge
of the program. Two representatives
of the Seamen's Mission, recently es-
tablished in Jacksonville, were pres
ent and addressed the audience, Arch
bacon Wyllie, and Mr.. Frost, the SUI
perintendent.
Archdeacon Wyllie spoke of the
great need of such an institution in
all seaports, for there is no place for
the seamen to go when on shore ex-
cept to saloons, or the lowest of lodg-
ing houses, which are sometimes even
worse than saloons.
Mr.. Frost won his audience at the
start by appealing to the mother in
stinct in all women. He told them
that during the five months the mis-
sion has been in existence there have

INDUSTRIAL AND SOCIAL CONDITIONS
FLORIDA FEDERATION WOMENS CLUBS

Madam President and Members of
the Florida Federation of Women's
Clubs: 1t is the nature of reforms
to move slowly. A report ON work
accomplished can hardly be expected
of the Department of Industrial and
Social Conditions. We submit, rath-
er, summary of conditions as we
find them in Florida, and some of our
aims.
I'm Florida.
The 1915 legislature passed the bill
to create an industrial school for de-
linquent girls in Florida. The board
of state. institutions is TO locate and
manage this school. The superintend-
ent must be woman who has had
practical experience in this line, or
special training in constructive social
work. There will be maintained a
system of industrial and manual train
ing and such educational and musical
facilities as the managers Shall deem
necessary and advisable" The APP
preparation for building and equipping
the girls school is $4,000. and for
operation and maintenance $1,000 a
year. It is. to be built on the cottage
plan F. F. w. C. has been success
full in obtaining three offers of land
for this institution from which the
board will select a location. Each
site contains one hundred acres. The
Dade County Board of Trade offers a
tract of land near Dade City, in a
beautiful high locality, near the San
Antonio road. Another offer is made
by the Jennings Artesian Land Com

been seventy-five or eighty men visit
ing the mission each month. Mr..
Frost has visited on their ships about
five hundred seamen during this time.
The mission furnishes reading mat
ter, writing materials, and has few
sleeping accommodations.
Gospel meetings are held every
Tuesday evening, and the average at
tendance is about eighty.
Mrs. w. S, Jennings, president of
the Florida Federation, asked that
this be written for the Federation
page, with the suggestion that this
work of assisting Seamen's Missions
in the numerous seaports of Florida
might we'll come to the notice of the
chairmen of industrial and social con-
ditions. The work is supported en-
tire1y by voluntary contributions, and
any assistance the clubs felt like Civ
ing would be most welcome.

pany, in Clay county, near the rail-
way depot at Doctors Inlet. Marion
county offers site just one-half mile
from the Ocala City limits. We are
anxiously awaiting a decision by the
board.
Industrial School for Boys.
An appropriation of $60,000s for
erecting and equipping the necessary
buildings of the school for boys at
Marianna, on the cottage plan, was
made at the last legislature, also a
generous appropriation for operating
and maintaining. Their new superin-
tendent is Mr.. J.. l.. Boone.
Probation Officers, Detention Homes,
Etc.
There is still much to be done for
our boys and girls. Only fourteen
counties have probation officers. Santa
Rosa and Hillsborough counties have
two each. The law permits man or
woman for this office. There is a
woman probation officer in Hills
borough county, also one in Pinellas.
Think of the countless emergencies
where a woman's tact is needed. We
hope to have more soon. Thorough
municipal chaperonage is the crying
need of today. Our stations, streets,
motion picture places, public. dance
halls, ETC., need the surveillance of
women with police authority. We
also need detention homes for the
different counties, or for each three
or four adjoining counties, where d
child may be sent pending an investi-
CATION, or if the offence is too trivial,
or the child too small for sentence to
