Probably the best place In the world
in which to make reasonably sane and
serious and usually satisfactory con-
illusions with regard to the general
run of human nature, and the real
calibre of people, is in a community
about the size of Pensacola, a growing,
developing city, where, whether the
acts of citizens count for very much
or for very little, they are remembered,
discussed, picked to pieces, and con-
scientiously criticized for years to fol-
low.
Probably the best way in the world
ifI which to learn to weigh your every
thought and every action, If, especially,
you are in the lime light of politics,
the professions, the business world and
so on, is a community about the size
and variety of Pensacola, where pretty
much everybody knows about every
body else, and is likely to keep fairly
good track Of the general run Of local
affairs.
Every step, too, which your really
worthwhile man or woman takes
which will effect the development of
civic projects should be on so conscien-
tious and careful and we'll considered
Every personal act or personal ex-
ample, you see, is always so ex-
tremely evident in the conspicuous ca
reer OF a worthwhile mamie should
be willing to weigh these, too, If he is
to be the help to his city which he
should be.
One Of the strongest examples, how
ever, of your really worth while citi-
zen, an example that you may see ever
so clearly at one rare time or another
in a city Of Pensacola's size, is the
man who has made the same mistakes
that thousands of others have quietly
done in larger places, but who has had
the benefit of little-town talk, and mar
row gossip and inadequate conception
the man who picks up the fragments
and goes on ahead, stronger and nobleI
and far more superior because of the
refining fire of these certain criticisms
whether warranted or not.
Your really big man is going to be
talked about; going to be discussed

By BONNIE BURNHAM

and going to be kept track Of by me-
dfocre minds who will enjoy rolling his
name about in expectant mouths, eager
for the sweet rare morsel of gossip
which will mean their only intimate
contact with his name.
One of your really worth while men
the kind OF man mean who has mis-
stepped upon problems of life or civic
conditions, or what not-is the man
who is strong enough and fine enough
and able to realize 1t all, to put 1t all
behind him,-and to come back into
his own.
Pensacola has such men.
And broad-minded right-seeing peo-
pie appreciate them.
A Responsibility.
There are always men in any COM
munity who shine out like beacon
| lights in the dim uncertainty of people
who may only follow on.
| They may be criticised, they may
have the rare pleasure of having every
mistake of their lives hauled up with
unerring regularity for grim self-in-
spection, but the fact that they are ac-
tually upon the tongues of people is
| conclusive enough that there are your
strong men Of your developing COM
munity, because they are actually do
| ing something.
Doing something-actually bringing
about results for the Great Deep Wa
ter City Of all our dreams, too, is a
responsibility which rests in the hands
of just this handful of really big men
and there should be no Sinking the
matter, either among those whose
ability and right to rule Is SO self
| evident.
The old blue blood Of Pensacola
and the progressive new blood so late
ly infused, should be represented to-
gether in this great work of city build
| ing before us.
The right men, in short, should be in
| the right place while we're building
Pensacola, with the hearts and hands
and help, the charity and understand
ing and patient tolerance of every true
citizen at their disposal.
