Having visited camps all over the
United States, Mrs. Varney said she
knew that the soldiers moral stand
ards, generally speaking, are very
high.
She then told some astounding facts
concerning the liquor question. Fifty
per cent of the breweries of this coun-
try are owned by Germans. Only the
other day German woman landed at
Key West and went to st. Louis to
look after the business of her brew
cry. And yet some Americans, pa
triotic Americans, are playing into
the hands of the most ominous enemy
in the world today Germany. She
told of how our government has ban
ned the use of alcoholic drinks among
our soldiers and sailors, because Of
their physically injurious effects. De-
scribing laboratory test for accu-
racy and alertness of the human
mind, she showed the terrible effect
Of alcohol on these qualities which are
of absolute necessity in the success
full carrying on of the war. The al
lies, she said, are outstripping the
Huns in the air, and why? Because
the German aviator, who has drunk
beer all his life, lacks alertness and
keenness of mind to act at the criti-
cal moment. The lecture, being chief
ly in the interest of prohibition, was
largely on this subject, and Mrs. Var
ney implored us to lend all possible
aid to our state w. C. T. u. in making
Florida dry in November next.
To give in detail Rev. Varney's ex-
|cellent address would be impossible in
this space, and for the benefit of those
who failed to hear her we would say
they missed one of the finest patriotic
addresses ever delivered in Tarpon
Springs.
At the close of the lecture several
persons signed the total abstinence
pledge and joined the local w. c. T..
u, to get into the race to make AM
erica dry.
The Citizens band furnished splen-
did patriotic music in front of the
church before the lecture and then
came inside to listen to Rev. yarney's
talk.
The meeting was opened by the
singing of America and The Star
Spangled Banner, followed by prayer
by Rev. A. E. Gammage.s

BIGGEST MEETING OF PINEL-
LAS co. BOARD OF TRADE
Continued from page ~

expressed his appreciation of the work
being done by the PinelIas county
board of trade, and said greater
things can be expected from it.
On motion by Mr.. Beekman. of
Tarpon Springs, a resolution was
passed to have Pinellas county renxe-
sented at the Florida state fair at
Jacksonville, and r. B. McMullen, of
Largo was appointed chairman of a
committee to take charge of this mat
ter.
Mr.. Whitman of the Florida Grower
gave very entertaining speech tell
ing war stories in a number of dia-
lects, which pleased the audience.
Dozens of new members were received
and the Pinellas county board of
trade is now stronger than it has been
FOR some time. An invitation was ex-
tended by members from Largo to
have the next meeting held there the
first Monday in October.
A machine for separating scrub pail
metto roofs from the soil was exhibit
ed by the Reolds Farms company, and
nearly all of the visitors inspected it
with great interest. The horse power
of the engine will be increased to en-
able it to go through the heaviest
growths of palmetto.
A complimentary luncheon, with
cigars, was served at noon in honor of
the guests by the Reolds Farms COM
pany, and was enjoyed by all.
Visitors were present from all of
the cities and towns in Pinellas coun-
ty, and it was one of the most repre-
sentative gatherings held in many
months.
A meeting of the county board of
trade booklet committee was held,
having charge. of the publication of
the Pinellas county booklet. of which
100000 copies will be issued, and it is
expected this publication win do much
good in advertising the many oppor-
tunities offered by Pinellas county to
northern people.
All the visitors enjoyed a trip
around Oldsmar. inspecting the many
substantial brick buildings and beau
tiful bungalows, and numerous ex-
pressions of surprise were heard over
the fact that so much progress has
been made here in one year. A vote
OF thanks was given to the Reolds
Farms company for its hospitality.

Patriotic Address by a
State W. c. T. u. Worker


Rev. Mecca Marie Varney, state
w. c. T. U. worker, the mother of a
son in the aviation service in Italy,
and the wife of an army chaplain, de-
livered a most eloquent patriotic adj
dress last evening at Trinity M. E.
church to good-sized audience, her
subject being "Mothers of Soldiers"
Rev. Varney had a modest yet
graceful bearing which at once won
the rapt attention of her hearers, and
throughout the entire duration of hel,
wonderful address they were. held
tense with interest. At times when
she gave some touching point the
house was breathless and the audience

Senator Ebenezer Bacon Hawkins
Dies at the Morgan Park Hospital
The Duluth [Minn.l Herald Has the Following
i Is Article in its Issue Of July S:

He learned civil engineering and rap
idly advanced in the contracting busi-
ness in Pennsylvania previous to
coming to Minnesota, finally becoming
vice president and general manager OF
the Drake-Stratton company. When he
acquired wealth from his iron ore dis
coveries, Mr.. Hawkins purchased a
residence on the st. Lawrence river
near the Thousand Islan6s, and later
became the owner of a winter home
at Tarpon Springs, Fla, which is one
of the handsomest places in that state,
and where he delighted to entertain
his friends. He was an active MEM
Der and director of the Northland
Country club, also member of the
Kitchi Gammi club, the New York
Yacht club, the Rocky Mountain club
of New York and the Century club at
Ogdensburg. He was interested finan-
cially in number of Duluth business
concerns, and was a director of the
Stone 0rdean- Wells company.
Gave Yacht for War Use.
At the beginning of the war with
Germany, Mr.. Hawkins offered to the
government the use of his yacht Itas-
ca II, and it is now in the service at
the Yale naval training station. Had
not death intervencd, lie would proba-
bly, have entered the service of the
war department in some capacity,
having sought a position in which he
might feel that his services We're val
uable to the government in the prose
cution of the war.
Mr.. Hawkins never married, and his
closest relatives are cousins, all of
whom reside in the East, with the ex-
ception of Mrs. Royal D. Alworth, q
whose residence at 2627 East Seventh
street the funeral services were held
at $3.50 this afternoon.
The services were conducted by Rev.
DR.. Brewer of the First Presbyterian
church. The active pail bearers were:
Marshall Alworth, George H. Crosby,
w. P. Mars, P. Mitchell, A. M. CHS

Senator Hawkins had a host of
friends in Minnesota and throughout
the country. and thcre will be deep
sorrow at his sudden demise.

thrilled through and through.
Rev. Varney told how, at the time
of the United States entry into the
war she and Chaplain Varney offer
ed their services to the country, they
were sent all over the nation to lee
ture in camps and cantonments, but
most especially in pro-German sec
tions. She described experiences they
encountered among these pro-Ger-
mans and something of the work they
had accomplished. She also told many
interesting facts of camp life, and
said "When somebody tells you that
our boys in camp do not live clean
lives, that is German propaganda.

Stricken down by cerebral hem
'orrhage at the Northland Country
club Tuesday afternoon at o'clock,
former Senator E. B. Hawkins died at
the Morgan Park hospital at $50
o'clock yesterday afternoon. He was
unconscious from short time after he
entered the hospital until the end.
With the passing of Senator Hawk
ms Duluth and Minnesota lost a true
and loyal citizen. He came to st. Louis
country thirty years ago, when the
Mesaba range was in its infancy, as a
representative of the contracting firm
of Drake & Stratton. For years he
was actively engaged in stripping
operations on the iron range, and en-
ployed thousands of men. in the ex-
tensive contracts carried out by his
company. During this time he became
personally interested in several prop
critics with the late o. D. Kinney, and
they developed several mines from
which they secured handsome returns.
The Hawkins mine was named after
him. Some time later Mr.. Hawkins
established his headquarters in Du-
luth and made his home here, in latter
years residing at the Kitchi Gammi
club.
Elected to the Senate.
While living at Biwabik, Mr. Hawk
ms was prevailed upon to enter the
political field, and in June, 1898, he
was chosen unanimously as the repub-
lican candidate for state senator from
the. Forty-ninth district, which then
comprised West Duluth and the Mesa
ba range. He was elected in Novem-
ber, his opponent at the polls being
Alfred Merritt, an old and well-known
resident of the district. He served
his term of four years in the senate,
where he soon attained a prominent
standing, and in 1902 was reelected
without opposition. He refused to be
a candidate for third term. But he
did not lose his interest in politics,
and was chosen a delegate to the re-
publican national convention. Suisse
quently he was made the Minnesota
member of the republican committee,
and took a useful and influential part
in that body.
Mr.. Hawkins was a New York state
man by birth, his native town being
ogdensburg, and at the time of his
death he was little over 81 years of
age. He was essentially a self-made
man. At one time he was newsboy
in Pittsburgh, and later a messenger
for the Western Union Telegraph COM
pany. For a time he worked in a
sawmill at Ogdensburg and then en-
tered the employ of Drake &. Stratton.

FLORIDA CITRUS EXCHANGE
PUTS ON ADVERTISING
CAMPAIGN.
Jacksonville, Fla, July 9.

Publisher, The Leader,
Tarpon Springs, Fla
Dear Sir:
We believe you will agree, with us
chat it sa patriotic duty to assist cit
rus fruit growers in getting the best
possible prices for their fruit.
Only in case they are able to sell
their oranges and grapefruit for as
smuch as the costs of production will
she growers find themselves in posi-
tion to pay their debts and keep up
their groves.
And they must secure more than it
has cost them to grow the fruit if
these growers of oranges and grape
fruit are to be able to subscribe for
liberty bonds, to contribute to the Red
Eross, and generally to do their part
an winning the war,
Careful Investigations have shown
that it is very seldom the case that
consumers benefit by low prices in
Florida on citrus fruits. The average
housewife pays just as much for her
oranges or grapefruit then as she does
when growers here are getting good
prices.
1t would seem as if speculative buy
efs are seeking to convey the impress
sion of poor prices for fruit, that they
may buy low and sell high. There ap-
pears to be considerable feeling in
The state that next winters returns
may not be satisfactory. So far as
we were able to learn the facts, there
is little in them to give grounds for
this fear.
That growers may be fully inform
ed, we have persuaded the Florida
Citrus exchange to put on a liberal
advertising campaign in newspapers
of the state. Your order for this bus
iness goes to you herewith, and we are
particularly glad to be. able to send it
at this time as general advertising is
likely to be light for several months
TO come.
The exchange will mail circular let
ters to growers calling attention to
the advertising in the newspapers and
going more into detail with regard to
the facts about market conditions. We
have engaged the services of one of
the most capable newspaper men of
the state to present the conditions as
fhey are found to exist, in series of
news articles, some of which will be
mailed you from time to time.
Any use of these stories by you will
be greatly appreciated by us. We feel
assured that by these various methods
growers can be persuaded not to sell
Eheir fruit for less than it is worth,
even if all of them are unable to see
their way clear to become members of
She exchange. Again thanking you
for the cooperation you have given us
an similar matters heretofore and in
Hhe hope that we may be able to send
you other good business very soon,
we beg to remain,
Very Truly yours,
The Thomas Advertising Service.
