Real Vaiun CT Christmas.

l. : T-iItiVc'T small matter
whether men find life easy or hard,
writes Hamilton Wright Mabie in the
December Circle Magazine; it is a
great matter whether they find it
worth while. Men cannot be happy
by filling their pockets and stOmachs;
that is the way to make them COM
Portable. To make them happy you
must fill their minds and hearts. The
Roman emperor, with an ineXhaust-
able cup of pleasure held at the lips
poor, unhappy, disillusiOned, com
pared with the Greek slave, Epictetus,
who knew by what scale of values to
/ test life. 1t is an old story that
things cannot bring men JOY; it was
preached long before pulpits were
made; but it has never been more OBJ
viously and dramatically set forth
than in the columns of the newspa-
pers during the past five years.
Now this is precisely what the
Christmas story does; it makes IL e
spiritual value of life clear; it brings
into human life the presence and
power of a divine idea of life; it sets
up a standard of activity which eX-
pels from the field the whole brood OF
aims, impulses, affections, and en-
terprises which destroy the unity OF
the great brotherhood OF humanity; il
confirms and gives authority to the
aspirations which are the very soul OF
life: it touches the facts of life with
the beauty of transcendent poetry
On the lowest places in the hardest
conditions, it makes life bearable: OF
the highest plane, in the happiest
conditions, it makes life a radiant
prophecy. Apart entirely from it
historical value and aside from the
authority with which, for a host o
men and women, it is clothed, Christ
mas has a value beyond computation
because it reinfOrces the altruiStiC
and idealistic view of life.

IMPROVEMENTS
Meeting at Washington.

ment Of the meeting to be held be-
fore the Board of Engineers, at Wash

ment of st Andrews Bay, until January

The Senators are exceedingly
anxious that at that time there be a
good attendance of those interested
including as many citizens from St
Andrews Bay as can attend, together
with the production of such facts in
connection with the Importance OF
the project as will convince the Board
of the necessity of immediate action.
Senator Milton says:

/ for St Andrews Bay, ard with prop
er showing before the Board, we will
! be able to secure favorable recon-
mendation, and with such recon-
nendatiOn, Congress would doubtless

The Senator, with everyone else in
! terested, feels that it is of vital i'm
portance that we make such a show
ing in numbers and facts before the
Board as will convince them of the
merit Of the project and result in al
immediate vote of approval upOr
their part. 1t is very important thai

In the opinion of the Punta Gorda
Herald, "FlOrida's greatest need to-
day is not immigration or good roads
so much as it is the adequate prOtec-
ton of human life and property
through the repression OF crime"
The appalling frequency of murders
in this state it attributes to the un-
certainty of detection, the uncer-
tainty of conviction and the uncer-
tainty punishment. In the opinion
of the Times Union the second cause
hangs on the third and the first is to
some degree an effect of it likewise.
How can law officers be expected to
be Jealous in the detection of crimi-
mails, and juries to preserve the honor

locality and it is always much prefer
able that all trees upon any given
street or block should Dc of the same
variety. The basis of all decoration
is the unit repeated many times, and
this IAN be controlled if the planting
of trees be placed in the hands OF
competent men working under regu-
lations to be adopted by the city
fathers.
The cOmmitte urges the residents
along any given street to meet to
gether and agree upon one variety
of tree to be planted the full leghth
of that street. Uniformity without
rigidity in tree planting will add much
to the beauty and comfort ofthe street
and home.
In this climate the best season fdi
planting hardy shade trees is during
the winter months, while early
spring is best for planting the
camphOr.
. ne space w lliCu NilOulU Dt ltlA ne
tween the trees as well as the distance
from the sidewalk line varies with the
different varieties, but these matters
will undoubtedly be regulated by the
city fathers in order to insure uni
formity.
Trees when planted should be en-
closed to the height of six feet with
a suitable guard or wire screen made
of wire netting which is an ineXpen-
sive but entirely effective device for
protecting the trees against horses
and many insects.
1t is important that the trees should

obtained by piercing the earth in

SUGGESTIONS as What 10 Plant.


The following are some timely and
good suggestions by civic Lacquer
regarding tree planting in Pensa
cola:
The tree planting committee of the
Civic League desires the united eff
forts of the property owners and citi-
zeus generally of Pensacola in the
supplying and planting of apprOpri-
ate shade trees over the entire resi-
dence section of this beautifully To-
Gated city. God has blessed us with
an ideal location and it is possible to
make this beautiful city within a
few years if we will be united in the
purpose of planting permanent shade
trees. They increase the value of
property by adding beauty and com
fort to The streets protecting the
cooling and purifying the air in sum-
mer and cOunteracting the unnatural
conditions of city life.
Trees for general street planting
should be nursery grown, as they are
accustomed to being transplanted and
have we'll developed and compact
root systems and symmetrical tops.
Only few trees are recommends q
for permanent planting in this 10
cality on account of the long sum
mers and equinoctial gales that oc-
casiOndlly visit US. The following
varieties have been tiled and are
recommended by the committee.
The Live Oak-Slow of growth but
beautiful and long-lived, free from
insects and with tap roots which in
sures protection in case of high
winds
The Hard Shell Pecan-A very
hardy tree, beautiful shade, symme-
trical form and with tap roots extern
ping deep into the earth, insuring
safety. As an avenue and shade tree
the pecan is without asuperior
The Magnol.a-The grandest broad
leaved evergreen of the southern
forest and especially suited for aven-
ue planting.
The Water Oak-A beautiful tree Of
rapid growth but subject to insects
and with surface roots.
The Camphor-An evergreen tree
of handsome compact growth and 3
/ fast grower on moist, we'll drained
/ land.
The Carolina Poplar-a very rapid
growing tree well adapted 10 moist
soils and especially sea shore loca-
tiOns and where quick-groWing tree
is required.
/ The SycamOre-A stately tree with
white bark. of rapid growth and well
suited for planting in suburban loca-
tons.
The Sweet Gun'-A rapid growing
native tree.
1t is important that the selections
b of trees be made suitable for this
Panama City pilot. (Panama City, Washington County, Fla.) 1907-19??, 1908-12-24
Mr. Lurton please take Notice.


Mr. Lurton's claims that the l.. &
n. r. r. is treating the st Andrews
Bay people fairly, and that shipments
consigned to this point are sent by
that company by way of COttondale,
does not seem to conform with facts.
On Dec. 9th F. A. Witherill had
shipped from Cos Cob, Conn.,, a
launch wheel, for which the bill of
lading reads "F. A. Witherill, Pana-
ma City, Fla, Clyde Line to Jackson
vile, and via Cottondale, Fla" Mr..
Witherill this week received notice
from the agent of the L. & n. r. r.
at Pensacola that this shipment was
there, subject to storage if not taken
away, and calling upon him to call
and get the same.
Here was a shipment plainly mark
ed and billed, taken by the l.. & n.
r. r. III miles past the junction
point of the a. * st A. b. r. r. where
it should have been delivered as CON
signed, and the consignee notified
that he will have to go or send 12O
miles from destination of shipment
to get the same.
Another striking instance of the
methods of this company comes to
light this week showing how our
people are treated. Rev. f. F.. Sim
mons shipped some goods from Ros-
coe, 5. D., to Panama City They
left the initial point by the st Paul
line, and by them was delivered to the
Wabash, which took the shipment to
st Louis and delivered the same
there to the l.. x y. r. Il.
The latter refused to forward the
same without prepayment of charges.
though the goods were worth MANY
times the freight. The consignee was
not notified how much these charges
were, but has to ascertain that, and
forward such charges to the l.. & n.
Il. r. at st Louis before his goods
will be forwarded. In the meantime
the shipment lies in warehouse sub
ject to attack from rats and vermin.
and the consignee is in great stress
for want of his goods.
These are not exceptional cases.
They are just two that have come to
the knowledge of the PILOT within
the past week. Such instances are
occurring right along. 1t was lust
such acts of tyranny upon the part of
king that caused an insulted. in
dignant, outraged people to rise up
in arms and free themselves from
Englands shackles. Is it then to be
wondered at that the people of Ala
bama and West Florida refuse to
listen TO the cry of the wolf, for fair
play, until some evidence is shown
that they will hereafter be treated
like men?
