TRANSFORMING
PENSACOLA ARE
NEW SIDEWALKS
Ten Miles of Walk Have
Already Been Laid
by Contractor.
FEW PEOPLE REALIZE THAT
FROM THREE TO FOUR BLOCKS
A DAY ARE BEING PUT IN, CON-
SUMING DAILY SIX CARS OF
SAND AND GRAVEL.

About the biggest visible public
improvement that Pensacola has ever
undertaken is the sidewalk building
which is now being rapidly pushed by
the WhiddOn Construction Co. Few
people probably realize just how fast
this work is going on, and fewer still
who have not Witnessed it can COM
prehend the transformation that is
taking place.
1t will no doubt be news to many
people to learn that six cars of sand
and gravel are being consumed every
day in this sidewalk building and that
200 lineal feet, or from three TO
four blocks of sidewalk are being
laid before sunset each day in the
week.
Mr. Whiddon yesterday informed a
Journal representative that he had
already laid about seven and one-half
miles of sidewalk out of the 20 miles
which his contract with the city calls
for and that he had put down three
miles additional for private owners
outside of the city contract This
makes a total of ten miles of walk
already laid, and by the time the city
contract is finished the total will
probably amount to no less than SO
miles.
One of the provoking difficulties
which the contractor has encountered
has been a species of vandalism
probably on the part of miscellaneous
boys. which has persisted in writing
names. making scratch marks, and
otherwise defacing the sidewalks be
fore the cement has hardened. II any
Of these boys can be caught they will
no doubt be severely dealt with, a
heavy fine and a sentence in the city
Jail being good punishment for them
Along with the sidewalk improve
ment has come the taking down OF
many of the unsightly fences which
have so long been an eYeSoTe III TIE
city, and lawns are being graded ~
or terraced down, as the case may De-
flush with the sidewalk. making a
beautiful appearance.
MrtrWhiddon's work is. as. 4 whole
far superior TO most of the work That
has ever been done on the sidewalks
of the city and, with frwteXceptionsr
vate property owners IS it is 10 the
public at large.
