Both Are Good
In Their Places.

If the same amount of capital now
invested in automobiles right here in
Chipley was invested in some manu-
featuring enterprise, several thousand
dollars-at least five thousand-would
be turned loose among the merchants
and other business men of the town
every week. Ever stop to think o
it? Still we hear lots of automobile
talk but nothing said about starting a
factory.
The above is taken from the Chfpfey
Verdict. a paper which is doing its
best for the upbuilding of Washington
county and West Florida. 1t is worth
considering by the people of every
community where prosperity is ap
parent and many can afford to own
and enjoy automobiles.
To large extent the suggestion is
a good one and might be followed with
profit for there is no question but that
many dollars would be brought to
Florida and this section would be in
an even more prosperous condition if
manufacturing enterprises of the value
of the automobiles owned by the peo
pie of West Florida were being op-
Grated.
Automobiles are great things. It
should be the ambition OF everyone TO
own one for the health and pleasure
I, himself and his family or friends.
To one who can afford a machine they
are sources of pleasure. and unless one
is to enjoy his earnings there is little
use in working to accumulate.
Automobiles have a place in modern
life, and the owning of them is verv
desirable, but in most cases when one
is financially able to afford machine
he is in a position to invest a like
amount in an enterprise which Will
not alone pay dividends, but will afford
employment to other people and will
help develop the country as well.
There are approximately three hun
dred machines in Pensacola, We are
told. Many of them-in fact majority
of them-cost several thousand dollars
each. some few costing less than a
thousand dollars. But using one thou
sand dollars as an average cost price,
it would appear that Pensacolians now
have invested in automobiles at least
three hundred thousand dollars. Not
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1911-12-01

a large sum when the wealth OF the
owners is considered, but sum large
enough If invested in the right kind or
manufacturing industries to give
steany employment tor hundreds or
men and women drawing weekly pay
envelopes amounting to many thou
sands OF dollars.
A canning factory could be organ
lied and operated with much less
capital than rs now invested in auto
mobiles. If such a factory should De
begun in the near future many acres
-ef produces would be planted in the
vicinity of Pensacola and 1t would be
only a short time until the reputation
of the Pensacola district as truck
growing section would be known
throughout the United states.
Pensacola needs a canning factory
a large one It is within reach of our
city if we will unite to grasp the OPP
portunity which viii be of vast benefit
to the city and country jointly. It is
worth going after.

UNION SERVICE

RESENTED, SERVICES AT FIRST
BAPTIST CHURCH YESTERDAY
MORNING WAS A BIG SUCCESS.

With the Protestant churches of the
city of every denomination except the
EpiScopalians, who had already ar
ranged a service for the members of
that denomination, represented, the
Union Thanksgiving Day service al
the First Baptist church yesterday
morning at II o'clock was well at
tended and was the most successful
service of the kind ever held in the
city.
The sermon of Rev. K. /. McIiver
of the Knox Presbyterian church, was
enjoyed and appreciated by the entire
congregation and was considered very
appropriate to the occasion. Mr.. Nc
Iver took for his text the first verse OF
the thirty fourth Psalm: 81 will praise
the Lord at all times,' and the speaker
handled his subject in a charminc
manner his address being interesting
clear and forceful.
The music which was very appro-
pirate, was furnished by a mixed choir
selected from the various churches rep
resented in the service. The choir con
tanned some of the best voices in the
city and all of the selections were ap
propriate to the occasion, so that the
music was one of the best features of
the service.
During the service a collection was
taken and 1t amounted to S2S.73, which
will be donated to the charity hospita'
fund.
The ministers connected with the
Thanksgiving service are of the

Supervised Fairgrounds
At the Public Schools.

AS the boys plays, so the man win
work.
Right play is training for good work.
1t is training to the fnind and heart
as well as the body. II sharpens zests
strengthens purposes and develops en-
durance.
Fortunate is the boy whose play is
properly directed: and fortunate is the
man who can carry the spirit of play
into his work.
IF all communities were wise enough
to judiciously supervise the boys at
play, stimulating their sense OF re-
sponsibility TO one another and de-
veloping self condolences and self-trust
there would be far less need Of at
tention to reformatories and reniten-
tiaries.
When properly appealed to. the boy
has high sense of honor and right.
There is stricter justice melted out on
many a play ground than in many a
court of law.
Cleveland has demonstrated in sew
eral years experience the practicability
and high benefits of an official director
of sports; and the incoming admins
tration in that city, with the hearty
cooperation of the school authorities,
promises to open many new public
play grounds where group plan play
will be efficiently supervised.
New York city has long been trying
further step, in turning the play
ground into a Juvenile republic" in
which the boys play the part of citi-
zens, working out a system of self
government themselves. Better order
is said to be maintained than was
ever done by corps of policemen.
The boy at play is plastic, and is
the best subject in the world in which
to develop staunch character and
good citizenship. the development of
these qualities should be aided by the
play itself. 1t should be seen to that
the playing is of a nature that elevates.
not lowers, the boy, and brings out
the best that is in him, not the worst.
The best school of good citizenship
ever devised in our time or any other
lies in group play and fair play.
There is a plain duty here which
every community owes to Itself.

HAS A POUCH FOR MESSAGES
California Pigeon Fancler Produces {,
Remarkable Result After Series
of Crossing.

Los Angeles, Cal.-Harry Meinell, a
pigeon fancier of Sawtelle, a suburb
Of this city, has bred carrier pigeon
with a pouch in which to carry mes
sages.
He says 1t has taken him seven
years to accomplish 1t. The bird, he
says, combines the swiftness of the
carrier pigeon with the homing in
stinct Of the homer
He got the idea in crossing various
breeds Of pigeons and studying the re.
suits. The pouter pigeon when cross
ed with the carrier showed a marked
pouch on the breast. He recrossed
the birds again and again. each time
the pouch becoming more pronounced.
He will try to perpetuate the breed
from two pigeons with the biggest
pouches.
