THE BVENING TELEGRAM LAKELAND, FLA., DEC. 13, 1911 Crusade Against l Vagrancy Lessens Criminal Records Jacksonville, Fla. ,Dec. 12.—The crusade which has been carried on during the past two months in Flor’ ida and Georgia against the vagrant has made itself felt in the criminal statistics of the State, according to the best information that can be gathered. In Jacksonville and Tam- pa arrests for grave offenses have been diminishing each week. Therc has been a disposition on the part of the magistrates to impose maximum sentences upon chronic vagrants rounded up by the police. Those of this ilk who were not caught in the drag net have taken the hint and have sought employment with the many industries of the State where their work has been needed so ur- gently. All industries have felt the bena- ticial effects of the crusade to o more or less slight extent, and lead- irg industrial men declare that ! course followed | by authorities in the cities and small- er towns will go far toward reliev- | irg what has threatened to becom: | .

Fly marks upon the gilt frames of pictures should be rubbed with half a lemon and then polished with a chamois leather. Beneficent Work of Nature.
