Cason and Miss Frances Rig- which was read by the W. C. T. U. President. It was full of good cheer for the W. C. T. U. and assured us of his hearty co-operation in all our efforts to spread the temperance gospel. Miss Sarah Polk gave the object ot the coming together and emphasized the importance of teaching temper- ance in the Sunday School, declarinyg that next to missions, the teaching -cf temperance was the most impor- tunt. We can make the world tem- perance without Christianizing it, but we cannot Christianize it with out first removing intemperance. The paper on Temperance Teaching con- ‘tained some helpful sugge‘suons to teachers and superintendents, for fupressing the subject on the minde of the Sunday School pupils. Mrs. Mayes very ably demonstrated her method of teaching the temperance lesson, or rather one method, using the octopus, or as the Ifttle folks more aptly named it, the “devil fish. She told them we had these devi. tishes all over the country. One iu ten miles of us which was reuchm.._, out its long arms an dtaking in somcl of our men and boys in Lakeland. | Scveral of them immediately sald | “Plant City.” At this poiit in tnc! program others were asked for er-| marks. Mr. Riggins emphesized the tact, whereas, formerly the temper-! avce work was entirely along i | line of reformation, trying to re- claim the drunkard, now it is alon. the line of education trying to save the boy from becoming a drunkard. 1t we can stop the supply of material, the saloons will have to go out o. business. Dr. Nowlin gave us great encoui- agement, assuring us of his heart; co-operation. In the words of tuc| ccuntryman. who was found beatin;{ the snakes in the show, and bLeins | 1cprimanded for it, said, he ‘“‘was’ agin 'em and he hit 'em whenevci | ho had a chance,” Dr. Nowlin als gave us a plan which we will pass on, to stop liquor wen the advertising matter to people, |who fcel insulted on getting il | Piace cach paper they send in a sci- jarate blank envelope, drop it in tic ‘ullme without stmpg, The postohice votifies the liguor man he has sou | mail bere witaout sullicient postac. \llc sends postage thinking, peruas, (he has an order. If he bad to pa, postage on the return of his obnox ious letters, he will probably be more careful to whom he sends it. Rev. Patterson gave us some stari- ling facts concerning parties in ouc: own dry Lakeland Among them was his knowledge of a young boy sent to Plant City to get whiskey for I dislike to lower our standard o: manhood by calling him a man, aid I can't insult the lower animal king dom by calling him a brate—he i- simply unnamable; no name is too rmean for one who would subject a as that. Redgrave also made some splendiu remarks and declared he expected to | fight with us to the finish. Shealy gave us the same assurance. The pastors all declared thmeselves in favor of the Sunday School Tem- perance rally. Every person present | veted for it. It was decided to have cach superintendent take a vote ol Iig Sunday school in regard to it. The time and plans will be arranged for later. Mrs. Turner, in well chos- en words thanked the Methodist peo- rle for the use of the Sunday School room and all present for their words cof encouragement. i sendin;; Rev Rev.

The fact to be most regrette.i was, that nol one superintendent was present. But the W. C. T. U. feels greatly encouraged anyway, as we feel sure their absence was not from lack of sympathy with the cause. MRS. H. B. MORSE.
