H The “Recessional” (Rudyard Kip- ling) as a chorus by the audience, {followed a few well chosen remarks with which Mrs. Geo. M. Wright, las president of the Woman’s Club, opened the meeting. An instrumen- | | tal duet, “Napoli” (Henry Parker) |was well executed by Mesdames Webb and Petermann, who always delight their hearers by the splendid technique and interpretation of good music. Dr. W. K. Piner was then presented and in a forceful manner portrayed the great blessing now being enjoyed by the American peo- ple in holding to peace amidst these trying situations. He voiced the minds of many loyal Americans in his thanks to God for the present ruler in the White House, and rec- ommended the following of his ad- monitions that the American people rd well their utterances and hold to neutrality in the present crisis. Picturing the awful wreck of the Lusitania and the loss of life thereby | entailed, he gave good reason for the ! cautious proceedings, in that this was as nothing in comparison with the greater loss entailed should we be drawn into a national conflict With calm wording and deliberate utterance each point was well drawn | ented, as Dr. W. K. Piner is so well able to dc. He closed with the remarks that this is not a time for elaborate speech but, with finger tips on lips, words should be care- fully weighed and educational ef- forts made that all may be well in - formed in the greater benefits of our national peace A vocal duet, “Whispering hope” (Hawthorn) was rendered by Misses | Lillian and Catherine Kaufmann, (with Miss Irene Kaufmann at the piano, and the program closed with “‘America” by the audience. 1t was much regretted that many of the representative citizens, of Lakeland were not sufficiently in- terested in the Woman’s Club and its effort in behalf of the peace move- ment to be present. and pre 80 | MR. R. W. HARDAKER DIED THIS MORNING AFTER A YEAR'S ILLNESS Mr. R, W. Hardaker passed aw: this morning at 7:30, after an ill- ness covering a period of over a year, !during which time he suffered from a severe throat trouble. | Mr. Hardaker was 42 years of age ‘at the time of his death and had been living in this section for many years, being the son of Mr. Robert | Hardaker, of Galloway. He was a man of fine character and respected by all who knew him. He leaves a devoted wife and one son, Maxie. The funeral will be conducted to- morrow morning, interment being !made in the Galloway cemetery. The sympathy of the community goes out to the bereaved family in their great sorrow. e Mrs. L. W. Parker reached the bedside of her husband, the I demented shoe salesman yester- dav afternoon, and although he 'failed to recognize her for about twenty minutes, he finally did, and her coming has greatly im- proved his condition. His f:\lh- er states, however, that it will probably be a vear before he re- "nnm his mental faculties. They expect to return to Iexington, Kv., with him tomorrow night.

In this delay it is obvious to all that saving of her men and material re- sources she has, as always, been making ready for the end. The proposed practice of Britain has been imperial aggrandisement of both territory and commerce. If the British army and navy might have been kept preserved until the Euro- pean armies have practically deci- mated each other then Britain could and would have lived up to its old traditions and directed the division of the spoils of war with especial taking of the lion’s share of ev available asset. The most procrasti- nating and dillatory, increasing of General French’s army and the idling of her North Sea fleet, are all unmistakable proofs of that policy. The French and Belgians long ago realized the fact and kicked vicious- Iy during last fall and are still do- ing the “maud” mule act because of English apathy. If “Brittania rules the waves” not a Cadaver, Ka is and the best of the s navy was bottled up in the Baltic and Hilliogoland was guarded by British ships there needs to be German cruisers to get to and suc- cessfully bombard and escape from the British coast. and Britain must confess her Dreadnaughts and cruis- ers, ete., obsolete or imcapably manned in the face of the facts that both German cruisers and subma- rines have made and continue to maintain as their favorite stalking grounds for both British commerce in sight of the Irish and English coast.

By every civilizing influence this war ought to have been prevented. By every sane impulse, by every pa- triotic sense of duty to ourselves, and by every hope for the continu- ance of civilization the United States must, and will, be kept out of it. President Wilson has for ten months been continually pleading with Ameircans to ‘“come home,” to “stay home.” Surely the American people cannot but love him, for the stand he took and has maintained in both the Kuropean and Mexican troubles.

To sell stock in a sure thing must one emigrate? The Germans, the most proeressive, richest per capita people, keep their investments at home. Witness the last domestic loan.
