THINGS QUIET

LACK OF WORK CAUSES DIS

.PLoYEs AND CONDITIONS ARE
GROWING GRAVE-oTHER NEWS
OF INTEREST.

A serious condition of affairs is not
only threatened for the navy yard,
but in truth has already arrived, and
numbers of men, many .f whom have
been van attaches for years, have
already received intimation that
there is practically no work to be pro-
cured at the yards. Some are leaving
as a result, and others have already
begun seeking other positions.
A peculiar condition of affairs arises
from the fact that while there is a
SufficienCy of funds at hand, few YES
sells are coming to Pensacola to be re-
paired, with the result that work has
been slack for some time past. What
the final result of the present status
of affairs will be can only be conjec-
tured, OF course. but the general air
which perEade5 the atmosphere at
Warrington at the present time, is to
say the least gloomy
1t is hoped that 1t will soon be pos
sible TO shift matters about in a more
satisfactory manner, and by some
means to throw some of the big work
of the department this way

be laid of in the near future

There are two things that

a thing and then doing it with
might and main. Mere meeting
and passing, reso utions without
action 10 achieve results VIII
prove of no avail. The meeting
together to exchange views Is
necessary, but the adoption of
the most practicable and putting
them into operation is the means
to accomplish the ends. 1t Is
pleasant to note the enthusiasm
that has been shown and is still
prevalent. to adopt new methods
of cultivating the soil. and to
diversity products. But going

is employed the earlier the treas
