junction with II, for the good Of Pen
sacola-
There should be regular monthly
business womens' luncheons at the San
Carlos with short talks by the mem
bers on matters in hand. the result Of
which would not only bring the mem
ner, but would bring a certain amount
of prestige to the club that it would
not receive in any other way.
Club rooms should be secured IN
some Of the public buildings. reading
room and rest room provided, along
with a lunch room for the business
girls who may not possibly have q
great deal Of time at noon.
Lectures should be arranged for, and
also certain facilities for wholesome
amusement.
II there is one thing needed in the
blue-grey life of some of the business
girls who have not yet thoroughly sue
ceeded in the business world, and to
whom the whole endless game still
seems a helpless and wonderful whirl.
it is the chance for healthful amuse-
ment and an utter abandonment OF
self at times.
Show me the anxious face Of a
pinched little colorless girl, and / will
show you one who has not yet learned
that the business girl should get away
from herself entirely out of business
hours, and become an entirely new
creature indeed, during her periods OF
relaxation.
There are men who are able to be
thoroughly business all of the time.
But when a woman, too, commences
to exclude everything else from her
life but business, she Is going to be-
come an extremely queer and unnat-
ural creature, with a bad liver and a
bad atmosphere about her generally,
because the condition of being bust
ness woman in the first place Is an
unnatural one, brought on merely by
certain social conditions.
She needs amusement, then, plenty
Of it, outside Of business hours.
And the Business Woman's Club Is
to see to a plan that she gets it.
This is among the numerous I'M
portant matters in hand.
Some of the business girls may not
have had the advantage of college
training.
These will be benefited by the
courses of lectures in view, for 1t Is
the girl whose mind has been most
thoroughly polished who will sparkle
best in the business world, and who
will make the best financial success.
The moral tone of the club. needless
to say, will be thoroughly In keeping
with the remaining features Of the or
ganization, and the whole splendid ar
rangement, when simmered down to
systematic order of being, will mean
a dignifed body Of some Of the best
known young women Of the city. who
have influence and responsibility in
the worth while circles down town,
and who will be among the women

Among the really 1--we issues Of the
week. or of the past two or three
weeks, in fact, has been the matter Of
organizing the Pensacola Business Wo-
mans Club, and almost everyone has
been more or less interested.
Meetings have taken place, actual
organization has occurred, and the
work of bringing system out Of chaos
Is well in hand.
Miss Ethel Chase, president, In q
hne, well balanced college girl who Is
precisely the right person for the place,
and there are numbers Of the city's
brightest young business women who
are assisting her very materially.
The idea Is to establish a business
woman's club which shall be a factor
in the real growth and progress Of the
city, and which shall also mean Ger
tain advantages to the members i'm
possible at the present time.
Club rooms, lectures. rest and lunch
rooms, etc, are to all come on In good
time, along with the dignifed standing
Of such a club. the members of which
will be associated in almost every
branch Of business in the city.
When the organization has become
strong enough and large enough, 1t will
probably be merged into a Y. w. G. A.
but just now the new club has a sTf-
hcient amount Of business on it's hands
IN merely becoming a club.
II circumstances and possibly per-
sonal inclinations call the girl to the
business world, she should make the
best possible kind Of business woman
in the somewhat transplanted atmoS-
pheFeL which she will find
It Is not the aim of the Business
Woman's Club to make more business
women, particularly, nor to lure the girl
away from the safety of her own home.
But II she has already become initia-
ted into its world by one reason or an
other. it Is one Of the aims OF the club,
at least, to make her a brighter and
better and more valuable business wo-
man than she would otherwise have
been, with more advantages for all
around benent and for general self
advancement.
The average young business woman
sometimes becomes business machine,
instead of the healthy flesh and blood
creature that she really is, which is all
very wrong.
1t will be this i'll, and many others.
which the club will set about to cor
rect. -...
Suggestions.
The Pensacola Business Womans'
Club should be organized from the
first with the idea of becoming one of
the really dignified and actually valu-
able civic organizations Of the city.
It should keep thoroughly abreast
with the mems commercial association,
and should strive to become q worthy
associate Of that organization.
1t should shape great many Of its
plans,~along the same lines laid down
by the mems club. and in time II will
b, strong enough and valuable enough
to work, in many instances. In con-

lions. They should first be cut into
4-foot lengths. Trenches are then sunk
in the cutters at right angles 10 the
road, and the ties or log is placed in
the trench Where the wash is severe,
several logs are placed directly over
each other like the fiashboards in
dam. The top log or tie is placed at
least inches below the gutter in or
der to prevent It from coming in con-
tact with the road drag or road ma
chine in operation. The ties or logs
are placed from 20 to so feet apart,
