APPROPRIATES
FOR ADVERTISING

Secretary Henderson, Of the Pensa-
cola Commercial Association, who is
much interested in the matter of at
tempting to secure legislation to pro-
vide that a city, county or the state
may use money from the general tax
fund for the purpose of advertising, is
in receipt of a letter from the secre-
tary OF the Asheville, N. c., Board of
Trade, telling something of what is
being done by that city along this line.
Speaking of the matter yesterday
afternoon, Mr.. Henderson said:
"Asheville, N. c., has been making
marked advances in the last few years.
According to the last census. the pop
ulation of the city was 1872, over g.
600 less than Pensacola.
Special effort has been made in
that city to secure tourists. 1t is
stated that the tourist crop last year
brought to Asheville large sums of
money.
"One advance Asheville has made
was to have the legislature enact a
law giving to the Asheville city coun-
Gil the right to pay from the general
funds of the city a limited amount of
money for advertising. Much Of this

The idea for having the day so far

to make the necessary preparations
and come to Pensacola at this time.
Speaking of the occasion yesterday
afternoon, Mr.. LiIlard said to repre-

person in Pensacola, to mail at least

cards a person mails the better will be
the results, but I urge everybody to

VOX POPULI.
NO ADDITIONAL TAX FOR
ADVERTISING Is ASKED FOR

Editor Pensacola Journal.
The ''Vox Populi" department of
your issue of September 18th contains
letter from Mr.. ]. N. Andrews en-
titled Taxes and Amendments to the
City Charter"
If Mr.. Andrews in his first para
graph refers to the recent action of the
legislative committee of the Pensacola
Commercial Association in which the
committee declares in favor of legal
izing the payment Of city, county, xor
state moneys for publicity and de-
velopment purposes, wish to say that
Mr.. Andrews is entirely wrong in his
conclusion. He states he wishes to
call the attention of taxpayers to an
effort which is to be made to get au
thority from the legislature to assess
the people for publication purposes.
II now quote part of the news item
as referring to the act of the legisla-
tive committee on this subject. 1T
seems that the laws now enacted do
not make provision to enable the au-
thorities of municipalities and county
commissioners to pay out public
moneys for advertising, and for city
and county development purposes.
TT will not be the purpose to levy
any special tax additional or supple
mental to that now levied, but simply
to authorize limited expenditure for
the purposes named
The purpose of the action Of the
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1912-09-20

committee is solely to make legal
something that is now occasionally
done without adequate authority of
law.
Referring to paragraph two of Mr..
Andrews's letter, he states: There is
a movement on foot to have the city
charter changed. The last time we
had the charter adopted, there was a
pretense of having it published, and
after 1t went back to Tallahassee, there
was joker attached which changed
the charter very materially. We don't
need any more of that kind of charter
work. We need to watch that move
ment very closely
Again, if Mr.. Andrews refers to the
action of the legislative committee of
the Pensacola Commercial Association,
/ wish to state that the very idea of
the action was to prevent the thing
Mr.. Andrews refers to, and 1 again
take occasion to refer to the news
item mentioning the action of the
legislative committee, which 1 quote
in part: THE legislative committee
of the Commercial Association is of
the opinion that, If the city does have
a new charter it should not be pre-
pared in haste, nor should there be
any attempt to have the Legislature
pass the same until the rights of all
interests are thoroughly considered
the charter in all it's details discussed
by the people, and the whole matter
made as an open book to the COM
munity."
/ refer to these matters in this way
because after reading Mr.. Andrews's
letter it suggested to me that in view
of the action of the legislative COM
nnittee of the Commercial Association,
there might be some misunderstanding
as to their purposes
l hope the above will remove any
doubts in the minds of those who may
not have understood the matter fully,
as intended and proposed by the ac-
ton of the legislative committee of
the Pensacola Commercial Association.
Yours truly.

Have Fall Garden
In Vacant Lots.

Perhaps one tenth of the families of
Pensacola have gardens attached TO
their homes, although it is doubtful If
there are so many. And 1t is also with
L. The bounds of reason to say that
nine-tenths of the people of this city
ca have gardens if they choose to
take the trouble to do so.
Nearly every residence lot in the city
is large enough to have some kind of
garden spot space in the rear for at
least small vegetable garden. Then
there are the vacant lots, almost with
out number. many Of which may be Sc
cured for gardening purposes at very
small rental or no rental at all.
Any time along this month is the
right time to plant fall garden. I'm
less one knows by practical experience,
it Is dificult for him to understand
what great variety of excellent vege-
tables can be grown in this climate in
tho late fall and early winter. The
variety may be made almost an endless
one if the fall gardener improvises an
arbor of some kind sufficient to keep
off the early frosts, as well as to tenn
per the rays Of the September sun.
Excellent tomatoes can be grown
here in the fall to ripen about the
Christmas holidays. 1t has been dem
onstratsd by actual experiment. 1t
would also surprise you to know how
easily you can grow radishes and GU
cumbers in the late fall and early win
ter.
Try it.

good work has been due to the secre-
tary Of the Asheville Board of Trade,
Mr.. N. Buckner. A recent letter from
him to the Pensacola Commercial AS
ISOLATION gives further evidence OF the
advances made in that city. He writes
in part as follows:
" I am glad to see the splendid prog
ress Pensacola is making in increasing
its streets, paving, mileage, and other
municipal improvements.
1--WE have just closed a FIVE day
campaign and raised $4,000 per year
for three years for advertising and de-
veloping Asheville. This is in addition
to the $4,000 received from the tax
fund of the city, which was created by
direct vote Of the people.
81 want to thank you for the in
formation relative to the Pensacola
white way cost of poles and lights.
We have an overhead Illumination,
with 5000 or 5000 incandescent lights,
and are now, figuring on using posts
to supplant the present method Of illu-
mination.'

Seventy-five per cent of the business
men in this country declare that the
chief educational need of their en-
ployes is a better knowledge of Eng
lish, including spelling, grammar and
punctuation and the use of words in
general.
Stenographers crowd to answer an
advertisement announcing a position
paying 81 a week, because they are not
qualified to demand higher wages.
Thousands of stenographers and type
writer's trained in the art of making
pot hooks" and tapping the typed
keys are eking out an existence on
meager wages.
These statements have direct bear
ing upon the proposition that The
Journal is offering you, the New
Websterian 1912 Dictionary, Illustrated,
and give reason for the popularity of
the distribution.
Get out of the 81 class.
Or, if you are not so poorly paid as
that, at least become busy and take
advantage of the opportunity which is

Six coupons clipped from consecu-

what you have regarded as misfortune
when it was only your own ignorance
weighing upon you and the limitations
of your vocabulary binding you down.
Good authority as to the need of edu-
cation is Director Edward Rynearson
of the Pittsburg High School. When
reorganizing the commercial depart
ment of high schools and inaugurating
the night school system, he wrote to
most of the representative business
men of Pittsburg, asking them to CO.
operate by suggestions as to what sub
jects of instruction should be given the
greatest attention. This is what he
reports:
"Of those replying, IS per cent con-
slider English (including spelling) es
sential So per cent bookkeeping, SIS
per cent penmanship, % per cent
shorthand" ETC., showing that the Ia
mentable lack of English was consid-
cred to be deserving of first atten-
ton.
Asked what defects they notice most
frequently among their employees the
great majority replied that they de-
sired: Better training in spelling,
grammar and punctuation"

The most surprising thing about the
doings and actions of the suffragettes
in some of the foreign countries, no.
tably England, is that some of their
leaders, who may have sufficient infiu-
ence, do not cause the militant ones
to stop their foolish antics before they
still further disgrace their cause.
Most of the actions of these militant
suffragettes are merely ridiculous,
foolish. silly and absurd. Still some
OF them are wantonly criminal.
Recently they tore down the nations

The Mastery
Of the Moods.

Have you ever noticed that il, in a
sour mood, you chance to glance at the
photograph of a friend, it seems to
frown back at you?
If you think of some grievance
against that particular friend, the face
on the card seems to harden with your
thought. And if you turn to pleasant
memories and kindly feelings, the pic
tured face softens to your mood.
1t is not idle fancy, but psychology.
a science in which the ablest minds
find deep interest.
Imagination, maybe.
But nine tenths of the things of this
life are colored by imagination; and
wise and happy is he who colors them
brightly instead of darkly.
If by imagination merely we can
turn even the fixed expression of a
photograph to a frown or a smile. as
we will, what fools we are ever to see
frown on living, mobile face that
does actually respond to our own
moods.
Thoughts are often hard and green
and tough, till the warm sunshine of
the heart ripens them.
A pleasant smile on the face of a
friend is about the easiest thing in
the world to create. and about the
sweetest.
A genial mood is like the sunshine
that brightens and sweetens and ripens
all it falls upon.
Not mere fancy. but the subtlest Of
all science.

Cottonseed was mostly a waste
product a few years ago. Some of it
was used as fertilizer and a little was
fed to cattle. But .cottonseed added
s127, 100000 to the value of the cotton
crop during the year ending August
81. The lint alone was worth $780,
100000, making the aggregate crop
value close to a billion. The smaller
crop of the previous year was worth
more money but the biggest crop ever
picked had far less effect in depressing
the price than might have been ex-
pected. The boil weevil was greatly
reduced all over the cotton belt.
