w. c. T. l.. Meet

The November meeting of the w.
G. T. y. was held Tuesday even
ing, Nov. Z, at the home of Mrs.
Vida Mcdaniel. After the regu-
lar opening exercises the president
Mrs. Amy Gray called for report of
the 49th annual convention of the
church, Findlay, O. An extended re-
port was given by Mary e. Dye, a
brief account of which is given here.
Mrs Florence Richard, president Of
the Ohio w. C. r. u, presided.
Mayor Rodenbaugh told the visi-
tors they could have found no drier
town in the state in which to hold
their convention. With a popula-
tion of $4,000. only Il men had
signed the Wine and beer petition.
When Dr.. Swinehart, pastor of the
church. suggested that the conyen-
tion take a straw vote and report it
to the Cincinnati Enquirer. he was
loudly applauded. Among the
speakers who addressed the CON
vention was Clifford Gordon of Mel
bourne, Australia In part, he de-
scribed prohibition in America as
"The miracle of the goth century"
and told an audience that crowded
the church the results of his 5
months survey of conditions in this
country. He said: Your law is
the greatest piece of humanitarian
legislation put across in the history
of government. Let no man or set
of men rob you Of that prohibition
clause. He said the Australian
newspapers have been carrying
stories on "the failure of prohibi-
tion in America, how the dry laws
were put across when the people
were asleep; how private houses
had become private stills; flourish
ing cities had lost their prosperity
streets. These stories had created
such obstacles to the work of pro-
hibition in his country that it was
necessary that some one come to
this continent and obtain the true
facts to carry back to the Austral-
ians. A fair comparison he said
would be to compare prohibition
with the time when . there were
700, 900 open saloons in America
and the breweries were running full
steam ahead He said after having
been in New York "a days Il have
yet to see a drunken man, smell a
liquor breath or hear the word
prohibition" He had heard that
people were being poisoned to
death because prohibition kept
them from getting good alcohol. Il
went to the health department Of
New York City to get figures I dis
covered that in 1916 there were 687
deaths from alcoholic poisoning,
contrasted with 119 in 1921.
The elimination of the Keeley In
| stitutes in America was regarded
by Mr.. Gordon as one of the great
est indications of the sHccess OF
prohibition. He went to Indian
apolis to visit the workhouse. He
found the doors padlocked and the
institution not operating. He
found the same state of affairs in
other cities, and at Dallas, Tex, he
could not find the jail. These are
some of the reasons he gave why
prohibition is a success in the
United States.
Mrs. Margaret Tysinger gave ar
interesting report of the house
to house work she had done al
Deavertown.
The meeting adjourned to meet

HERALD HARD HIT

The Democratic landslide last
week shook the Herald building so
hard that the west end wall of the
building almost gave way, and it
was necessary to employ force of
workmen to rebuild it. While
about it they had better strengthen
the balance of the Building, or it
will never stand the big Democrat
ic landslide which is sure to come in
two years.

Ate Christmas Dinner
We ate our Christmas dinner in
the shade near the tent while camp
ing there but 1t was hard to realize it
was Christmas day.
From Tarpon Springs we camped at
Largo for a few days and from this
camp we visited Clear Water and In
dian Rock beaches both beautiful
beaches but still showing the ravages
Of the terrible storm which visited
the whole west coast of Florida last
October. We also drove to st. Peters
burg from Largo and found ii TO be
indeed the Sunshine City as we had
seen it called 80 many times on the
way south. | believe I should have
named ii the Out Doors City as even
the shops and a part Of the postoffice
were open onto the pavement and
spot and nook. A park was used en-
tirely for out OF door games and the
people seemed TO be availing them
selves OF the opportunity. We also
visited Sarasota for few days which
is noted for its beautiful beach, Pal
metto and Brandentown we also found
interesting and all of OF them grow
ing as the result Of Northern capitol
being invested there. After camping
at Palmetto for a few days, we came
back to Tampa for mail and a rest
before crossing the state TO the east
coast. We camped one night at Win
ter Haven going there by way of
Plant City where we saw them pack
ing strawberries for the northern
markets, through Barlow, the City OF
Oaks, and by Lake Wales near which
is thirty thousand acres of Citrus
groves and the most prosperous and
fertile looking section we have seen.
A MilIionaires Playground
The section between Dundee and
Winter Haven is called the Million
aires Playground, we felt is was
rightly named from the beautiful win
ter homes, little lakes and wonderful
golf links that we passed, ii was a
veritable garden spot too beautiful to
describe.
After leaving these beautiful places
we crossed to the east coast of which
| will tell you later If have the
chance, but a camp ground is not a
place where one can very readily col

ing, laughing, singing and joking that
goes with camp life. we still feel 1t is
the only way to see and know the
country you are passing through as
It really is.

November is the very rainest month
of all the rainy season. This season
is supposed to commence in Septem-
Der and end with November here with
faint repetition of itself in April
and May. The rest of the time We are
as burned and parched as any des-
ert, the baked clay of the streets
being cracked open at intervals from
very dryness. 1t has never been our
misfortune. before this trip, to travel
at the close of a rainy season, and
had anyone told us how the trails
were, we would not have believed it
possible to get over them. Indeed for
two weeks-in the first part of Novem-
ber-they were impossible, and all
means OF communication with the
outside world was cut off for us. "See-
ing is believing, trite truth
might be applied to two things in this
cOnnectiOn,-the violence of a tropi-
cal storm, and the depth of the mud
through which our mules wallowed,
stumbled and plunged. We had at
least dozen typical storms this rainy
season, storms in which rivers of wa
ter ran in various directions ten min
utes after the rain commenced, and
which tore up trees and carried off
whole sides OF mountains in land slid
es before their fury abated. No won
der that land slides occur-the only
wonder is that there are not more of
them, that any of the overhanging
sides of these mountains continue to
cling in place during such storms. But
when some hundred tons of pure
mountain slips down over the narrow
mule trail, clinging to the slippery
side of the mountain, travel is COM
pletely at a staDd-still. Just at coffee
moving time, too. Coffee commences
to pour out of this region in a steady,
irresistible stream in October, and
nothing short of mountain landslide
can stop it.
Many Coffee Cargo Mules
The coffee cargo mules are every
where. The trains are alive with
them. One must either meet them or
pass them constantly, and in so many
places either meeting or passing is
an imposibility. Fortunately these
mule-drivers. as someone has said,
seem to depend more upon their
raucous voices for driving their ami
mails than upon the sticks and stones
they continually throw at them. or
the long raw-hide that they admin
lister to the legs CT any poor animal
that the driver happens to overtake.
One hears the long-drawn out call OF
the drivers, their sharp yells, and
