HOBSON HEARD
BY BIG CROWD

Hon. RlcnmOnQ PearSOn hODSOn,
renowned naval hero, chautauqua
celebrite and champion prohibition
leader, was greeted by an audience
that filled the First Methodist church
to overlooking Tuesday night to hear
the distinguished speaker in his lat
est address, THE Challenge of the
Red Flag and the Black Flag
Singing of America" seemed to
lend a cooperative inspiration, fol-
lowed by prayer by Rev. Folsum of
Kathleen, when the speaker was then
introduced by DR.. ]. NJ Goss, pastor
of the First Methodist church.
After complimentary remarks as to
his audience, the city of Lakeland,
Florida at large, and appreciation OF
the kind words of introduction, Capt
Hobson plunged into his subject
holding the attention of his hearers
as he expounded the great truths
concerning alcohol and its destruc-
tive agency upon the human race and
of the fight of the two great forces
for and against it's use in our coun-
try and the world. stating further the
object of his visit here was not to
fight for the eighteenth amendment
for every true American without
doubt will obey, respect and de-
fend it. This has now become
world battle, for the liquor trafiic OF
the whole world is conspiring
against it with 10000 secret agents
at work, their three billion pieces OF
literature distributed last year, their
thirty-two active organizations and
their boast of a billion dollars at
their disposal. operating especially
among the thirty odd million in our
country who know not our constitu-
ton.
Prohibition amendments and other
organized forces against the liquor
traffic are not enough, but the edu-
cation of the deadly alcohol poison
ing is essential and and a knowledge
of it's chemical composition and the
deadly effect upon the human race
and upon the unborn yet to follow.
Tests have been made, experiments
yet in progress and investigations
lead to the awful effect upon the
child and mother by one or the 9TH
er of the parents indulging in the
use of alcoholic drinks. The cause
must be removed through knowledge,
real information and through collect
ing the forces of the many individu-
ais who will not allow the eighteenth
amendment to be made light of in his
or her presence and who will resolve
by the strength of Good to report and
bring to light lawless traffic, the Of
! ficer who fails in his duty and de-
tense and honor of those performing
their duty.
THE state, then the United tates,
and now the world liquor traffic is to
fight, and l call you to the colors,
said the speaker.
A local branch of the American AL
cohol Education Association, an or
ganization designed solely to admin
lister the educational treatment to

LAKELAND FISHERMEN
HAVE LUCKY DAY AT
GULF KING FISHING

The Lakeland fishermen who went
to Tarpon Springs Tuesday are full of
pride and fish, havin gcaught $50
pounds in three hours. Ninety-seven
separate and individual fish were cap
tured, weighing from three and half
to nine and three fourths. Mr.. Lufsey
claims that two of the fish are feed
ing his family and all the neighbors.
Toting home their catch was too much
of task after the strenuous labor
OF landing it, and a fish house iced
and packed most of the fish and
shipped them TO Lakeland.
"Hiker" relates the tale of the out

Very early Tuesday morning a par
