BRAGDON,S SODA FOUNTAIN
New Counter Service Installed and Ex.
quisite Decorations Replace the Old

New cOHater Service Installed and Ex'
quisite Decorations Replace the Old
The many patrons Of Bragdon's soda
fountain will be interested in the exten-
sive improvements the genial proprietor
has made in its equipment and decora-
tions during the winter months, and
when it 10 opened for business this morn
ing, they will have an opportunity to ad-
mire one of the best equipped fountains
on THE Peninsula.
Mr.. Bragdon who enjoys the reputation
of doing anything be undertakes well, has
surpassed all his previous undertakings
in his latest effort to please his patrons.
He has installed the Robert M. Green
& Sons polar counter system with the
'Lotus" draught service, which is por-
ceIain enamel and white marble. All OF
the syrup containers are porcelain with
silver pumps and marble tops, and the
cooling process installed is most complete,
the refrigerators having capacity of
nearly 1000 pounds Of ice. The counter
has been raised seven inches and re-.
duced eight inches in width, and is 20
feet in length.
The large plaster paris background and
canopy has been recoated, and the square
mirror which occupied a place in the
centre, has been replaced with an enor.
nous oval one, while one Of the most
exquisite pieces of marble statuary occu.
pies a conspicuous place in front of the
oval mirror. Two large iardiners adorn
the sides, and the entire manner in which
each piece is placed impresses one with
the idea that Mr.. B. is in no sense an
amateur in the art of decorating.
The whole arrangement is brilliantly
Illuminated with large number of elec-
tic lights, and adds greatly to the appear.
ance of this we'll equipped drug store.
The reputation of the beverages dis
pensed at Bragdon's soda fountain during
the past many years, enjoy such wide
reputation as requires no comment from
the writer, but we are assured that num-
Der Of concoctions will be introduced by
Mr.. H. P. Jones, the capable dispenser.
The public is invited to call in to-day and
inspect the fountain.

WANTED UNDERSTANDING

Editor Pensacola Journal;
1 stated in the outset that the re-
tanning wall question would cause
trouble, and I had a long talk with
the engineer, Mr.. Thornton, and in
sisted that the contract be so worded
that there would be no misunder-
standing. As it stands now the con-
tractor can plead that he is not
Obliged to build the wall, and the
property owner can say that he is not
Obliged to pay if it is built. and |
wanted the matter sifted before any
work was done. After a lot of side
wax is laid il will be a great hard
ship on the owners to have the fill
ln6 washed out, and the walks fall
down, and if the work is done bv or
der Of the city ! believe that the city
WI be liable, so that matter should
be well considered.
Respectfully,

GOOD TO BE DERIVED
FROM TUBERCULOSIS EXHIBIT

Editor Pensacola Journal:
May one who has before gained
recognition therein again trespass upon
the well-read columns of The Journal
this time addressing myself to each
/ citizen individually in the hope that
| some added good may be accom-
| pllShed in the way Of aiding material
! ~ IN the present meritOrious tubercu-
1 losis fight.
The idea as worked out after some
| thought is to have a Fly Week in
| Pensacola This may at first mention
| be regarded with popularity, but really
the suggestion impTesses me as a good
| one, and one in which all may paTticI-
pate.
BY chart, picture and lecture. we
were informed at the late tuberculo-
| sis show that the larvae of flies were
| IN the main deposited in stables,
places Of filth, etc. 1t has occurred to
me that a general and systematic
cleaning UP could be agreed upon,
and by proper cooperation the
death kmell of millions OF disease-car-
rying insects would be made possible.
If it could be worked TO a system,
there could be set aside one whole
week or six days wherein every resi-
dence, place of business, alley, stable
street, square, dock and public build
ing would be given a thorough reno
walton with the one idea paramount
10 get at, ind out and destroy every
known or suspicious breeding place
for flies, mosquitoes. etc, thus de-
stToying the colony OF winged trouble
makers and securing for ourSelf and
neIShbOr a peace from these pests.
Then when all filth would be collect
ed, 1T should be plentifully sprinkIed
with lime and placed in receptacIes
TO await the city scavenger wagons.
As there would indisputably be a great
amount of filth thus accumulated. it
might not be out of place for the mu-
nicipality to cooperate in lively man
her and place several available spare
wagons, to be used in caTting away
the stuff collected The paid drivers
could be furnished with one OrtwO able
bodied prisoners, ibis arrangement to
make the collection and disposition
work less Objectionable and more
thorough. Think of the millions of
insects which would be deprived OF
an otherwise unuseful livelihood il
this matter is worked right.
Pensacola people were exceedingly
fortunate in and I believe generously
appTeciative of the grand tuberculosis
exhibit, and many useful matters
were grasped by white and black of
all classes. The fact that our friend
the common hOUsefiy, was the main
and most dangerous dissemination of
the now more than ever dreaded white
plague was demonstrated TO the very
evident satisfaction of hundreds and
thousands who attended the lectures.
This being the case, these same peO-
pie who were firmly edited in this
respect will undoubtedly lend all en-
crgy possible in the complete exter-
mination of the insects, which is pos
sible. although a task of much mag
niuUdC. if everyone and his neighbOT
and the latteT'S neighbOr so deter
mine. A proclamation from the may
Or's Office would more regularly call at
tentiOn to the proposition, and atten-
ton from state and country would be
CTyStalliZed upon our own city to
await the result of such an expert
