10 suggest that in our Judgment 1t
would ~e contrary to sound public
policy to promote the Honorable VIII
liam c. Hook to the Supreme Court
of the United States.
Our reason for this opinion dif-
fers somewhat from those which,
according to the newspapers. have
been chiefly urged upon you. This
reason is because we believe that he
plainly erred in taking jurisdiction OF
the Oklahoma rate case while all the
issues involved therein were chen
pending and undetermined before the
Supreme Court of oklahoma.
In taking such Jurisdiction he not
only violated that comfy which
should be regarded as an obligation
by all courts. but he ignored the de-
cision of the Supreme Court of the
United States In the case of Prentis

What Parks
Do For a City.

This is the season when the city
resident begins to appreciate the parks,
for there fresh air and contentment is
found after the long hot days in the
crowded buildings. This is the season
when band concerts begin and the city
residents have an opportunity for n
few hours recreation. The whole
family may repair to the park in the
evening and feel that those In charge
of the city government are doing their
duty when they provide places of rec
reation and amusement.
Pensacola is not a large city and ii
was late in making a start toward
park development, but Pensa cola is
now in the front ranks and is going
forward in this good work. Just at

Wagging the Ears
An Useful Achievement.

An eminent scientist declares that
all men may learn to wag their ears II
they try long enough.
Who has not known and envied the
boy who could wag his ears?
AS a boyhood hero he Is second to
none--not even to the one who can lay
back his thumbs or wiggle his scalp.
There are few things impossible for
man to accomplish if he Will only set
himself at it seriously enough and keep
at it long enough.
The pity Is that so many of US put
so much enthusiasm and energy into
attempts to wag our ears-or many
other purposes equally .useiass-and
have so little left for efforts toward
useful achievement
Some day, somebody, through mar
velous strength, skill and persistence,
is going to swim the English channel
And lots Of people who think for this
reason we are really progressing.
No doubt, attempts will be kept UP
until, some day, some reckless idiot
actually succeeds in going over Niagara
falls in skiff and coming out alive.
What more will be left for brave men
to aspire to?
Some time seon-but let's hope not
in our own time-women are going TO
succeed in turning themselves into
wasps at the waist and birds at the
top.
Wagging the ears is a tame accom-
plishment beside some others which
the human race has been about long
and seriously.
Individual effort, held straight ahead
by persistence and driven by enthu=
siasm and energy, is a tremendous
force. When millions unite their indt-
vidual forces to one end the result is
irresistible.
Whether our aspiration and striving
be toward something useful to tho
world and ennobling to self. or toward
some such thing as wagging the ears.
we will succeed at it, If We only try
long enough and hard enough.

suffrage states have learned not to
nominate a grossly immoral man. They
saw "the women won't vote for him.
And his name is scratched off the
slate. A certain class of women might
favor that class of men, but pollucu
leaders know that those women are
not in the majority. AS TO the charge
of being snubbed by snobbish women

When a woman goes into an oflce
down town and sees the ceiling fes-
