There are numerous reasons why
Pensacola Is admirably situated for

TUESDAY. OCTOBER 3. 1911
Beginning of
The School Year.

The school season in Pensacola be-
gan yesterday and the largest enroll
ment Of pupils in the history Of the
city was the result. The school author
tiles also are in better position to
carry on the school work than ever
before in the history of the city.
There is more to the school course
than the mere reciting of lessons out
Of the textbooks, and it is within the
power of the parents of the children
to materially help the school teachers
in their arduous undertaking to train
the young winds of the future fathers
and mothers of Pensacola.
When teachers fail to do their work
properly they ought to be criticised
and ought to be reported to those Of
ficials they are responsible to, but the
parents have duty to perform which
Is equally as important and unless the
parents do their full duty they are in
no position to know whether the
teachers are satisfactorily carrying on
the work they are supposed to do.
The school period of a child's life to
a large extent maps out for 1T the
course it will follow in later years,
and everything should be done by
parents, teachers and school officials
TO make the training as complete as
possible. The training does not stop
when the daily lessons are taught and
explained to the pupils. Far from it
the discipline, and the general con-
duct, the physical, mental and moral
training are all necessary to teach the
children to become the men and women
that they should be to perpetuate a
strong and manly citizenship.
Some parents feel that when they
have supplied their most precious pos
sessions with few school books they
have done their whole duty. They
seldom visit the schoolrooms where
their children live nine months in the
year and they know little Of the
teachers who have their children IN
charge. This should not be the case.
Teachers and parents should work to-
gether and IL this is done the teachers
win do better work for all concerned.
The school period Is an important
period in the life Of the boys and girls
and there cannot be a great school
system complete in every detail with
out a hearty cooperation between
khose in charge and the mothers and
thers of our city. The authorities
ase done their best in the way Of
pviding new and repairing old build
ugs and securing the best teachers
NTH the funds available and it remains
.for the parents to do their part.

advised that the price asked by Mr..
Keynton was more than the present

his sewer had no 'Y" branches, hence
it was rejected. The clerk was in

A petition from the Central Trades
Council in regard to the enforcement

A communication from J. J. Bowes,
ST., stating that his sidewalk at the
corner Of Romano and Florida Blanca
streets was being undermined as re-
suit Of some other work which had
been done by the city, was read and
referred to the street superintendent
with instructions TO relieve the situa-
ton.
The city engineer furnished the
board with the estimated cost OF the
building Of the boulevard along the
bayshore in the eastern part OF the
city. He estimates the total cost as

sled. The chairman stated In this
connection that the work Of hardening
streets leading to the proposed boule-
wards was being carried on at present.
The application Of Victor Hoist, Jr.,
for a position in the sewer department
was received and fled.
Reports,
The monthly report Of the street su-
perintendent, showing the amount OF
work done and the parts Of the city in
which it had been done. was received
and filed.
The report of the building inspector
showed that during the past month
permits for buildings within the fire
limits to the amount Of S4212S.50 had
been issued and for $17,021 outside Of
the fire limits, making a total OF $6s,-
1880.
The plumbing inspectors report
showed that during the month thirty
seven permits had been issued for
plumbing work and that ten sewer in
spections had been made. The in
spector also reported that he had in
spected all the school buildings in the
city and that the superintendent Of
public instruction had agreed to have
all OF the sanitary connections IN first
class condition before the opening Of
school yesterday.
After approving the bills and pay
rolls for the month, the meeting ad-
tourned.
Chairman Blocker and Messrs.
Mayes, Higgins and Roch were present.

away the school may be located here
convinced that the purpose Of the
school could be better served here
than elsewhere
The forts guarding the harbor and
the bodies Of water close by would
give the birdmen ample opportunity to
make all of the practical tests that
could be desired and the smooth, large
tracts Of land near the city would
make admirable sites for the school.
The school viii have six machines
in the feet which is to be brought
south and it would be of especial ad-
vantage to this city II it should be
chosen as a site for the school. AS an
advertising feature It would help i'm
mensely and tho number of persons
connected with the school would be an
addition which the city would be glad
to welcome.
Leaving out the selfish motive
which would make US want the school,
Pensacola is the best place in the
south for the government to get the
most out of the school, and when 1t is
brought to their attention we feel that
Pensacola can get it.
This, like other things, requires some
effort on the part OF our citizens. 1t
is the work of the Commercial Asso-
citation and the time for action is to-
day. VIII we do it?

FROM THE GULF
TO THE LAKES
(DeSoto County News.)

Frank L. Mayes may not become
governor Of congressman at large
However, he is by all odds, the first
citizen of Pensacola, If not of West
Florida
AS editor and owner of the Pensa-
cola Journal, he is welding a wide
influence. He is the biggest booster
and man in the city, with all due
regards to w. A. Blount, the leader
of the Florida bar.
Mr.. Mayes has recently headed a
party who made the trip in auto from
Pensacola to Chicago. They were on
the road twelve days. He writes in
terestingly of the trip and of the roads
over which he travelled.
This event is an illustration of the
popular movement for good roads.
The people are coming to Florida.
They are not all coming by railroad.
Many hundreds and thousands would
come and remain all the winter If we
had good roads.
All this movement points to the
growing demand for hard-surface
roads. We must have a system, fos-
tered by Uncle Sam, the state, the
county and the district.
We must pull together. 1t is expen-
stve for the county to build roads
without plan and by pieces.
The News believes that the agita-
ton will discover better methods, bet
ter road material and a grand system
Of good roads.
DeSoto county, although far to the
south, must and will find a way to
be connected with the good roads
system.
In less than a decade our people will
be hauling over and using hard-sur-
face roads. We have the best road
material in Florida A visit to the
mari beds owned by the county will
prove this statement.
