ganization is headed by Andrew vis-
sochione of the greatest accordion
Dlavers of modern times, and selec
tions on the concern accordion occupj
an important Dlace on the program.
In the hands of this master artist the
accordion becomes a veritable sym
phony orchestra, producing marvel
ous effects.

in the lyecum course at the Temple

most popular attractions. The com
pany is composed of four people, with

accordionists, "heading it. His asso
ciated musicians are artists of ability.

Woman's Club Officers for 1918
The election of officers for the
Woman's Club during 1918 was held
in Tampa yesterday afternoon amid
much excitement. There was consid
erable lobbying done on the floor of
the convention which Mrs. Jennings
severely criticized:
"I would like to ask the local clubs
if there is a private room in the
building where the nominating com
mittee will not be disturbed," said
Mrs. Jennings.
"This committee must not be ham
pered by people who wish to lobby
with its members or to influence them
in their choice. I understand there
has been a great deal of lobbying on
the floor of the convention already
indeed I am told that men have been
taking part in it and this committee
must not be disturbed with such mat
ters. ' .
"Ladies," she added most impres
sively, "it would be a great mistake
to get your federation into politics."
The Florida Federation officers are
as follows:
President, Mrs. Edgar Lewis of
Fort Pierce.
Vice president at large, Mrs. J.W.
Henley, Dade City.'-
Vive president, first section, Mrs.
Elizabeth Skinner, Dunedin.
Vice president second section, Mrs.
J. W. McCollum, Gainesville.
' Vice president, third section, Mrs.
E. H Wilkerson, Panama City.
Vice president, fourth section, Mrs.
M. M. Stanley Daytona.
Vice president, fifth section, Mrs.
A. W. Young, Vero.
Recording secretary, Mrs. C. E.
Hawkins, Brooksville.
Corresponding secretary, Mrs. W.
W. Scott, Fort Pierce. , - :
Treasurer, Miss Bessie Williams,
Crescent City.
Auditor, Mrs. . Ernest Galloway,
Sanford.
Florida director to General Federa
tion, Mrs. W. S. Jennings, Jackson
ville. - ,
This convention was an unusually-
enthusiastic one and was' greatly en
joyed by 222 delegates, as the hostess
club and the citizens of Tampa left
nothing undone" for the pleasure of
the visitors.
The reports showed increased in
terest and progress in every line of
work. .Among the reports the fol
lowing by a well known Gainesville
woman will be of interest:
Mrs. J. W. McCullum, chairman of
industrial and social conditions, gave
an interesting report enlivened by wit
and humor. She spoke of the fact
that although the federation had in
sisted on the cottage plan of building
for the girls 'industrial home at
Ocala, the board had used the insti
tutional plan instead, thus placing
hardened girls in contact with first
offenders. She hoped this might be
changed. She said there are 243 boys,
white and colored, at the boys' indus
trial school at Marianna, with 23
attendants and two teachers, a pro
portion she seemed to thing some
what improper.
Mrs. Jennings made an expert pre
siding officer and holds a warm place
in the hearts of all the women of the
federation.
