ence that 1t IS necessary for cities to
reach a certain point in development
and improvements, such as street paw
ing. sidewalks, new hotels, advertis-

the benefit therefrom, and as all oI
these things are about seeing their

The Pensacola Investment Co, real
estate and general investments, said:
with the epitome of the principal
steps of progression taken by Pensa-
cola during the past twelve months
before US, We are glad to say that the
of Pensacola has been
greater than the most optimistic
dared hope for at the beginning of
the year 1909.

good Of Pensacola in the coming year

the one we are just completing. The |
progress of the past twelve months |

"The many public improvements, |
street paving, side walks, new hotel |

as these undoubtedly have a great |
tendency to bring new people and ad- |

means progress. Present indications
