spicuous by its non-passage, will be
presented and favorabIy acted upon
The Journal believes that the mem

council would probably have acted
upon the ordinance at any time in

the non-passage of the measure is
probably due more to the forgetful-

moss covered, are chronicled the pass

sacola spirit Pensacola cherishes
dearly its past. Pensacola played an
Important role in the early history OF
the country, and St Michael's is the
resting place OF many of those who
fought and struggled that Pensacola
might live.
Now, the cemetery has gone to de
cay. Dense underground covers the
tombs of early Pensacolians. Weeds
and rank grass cover unmarked
graves Mounds that indicate the
resting place of men and women, are
leveled with the rains of decades, AMI
there Is naught to distinguish them
from the paths and carriage ways.
By all means improve St M1chaeI's
cemetery. Every citizen should give
his mite proudly toward beautifying
this landmark The dead deserve
homage at the hands of the living
Whether it il of your flesh and blood

are yours to honor.
