MR.. GIBSON WRITES
ON THE AVERAGE BOY

Editor Pensacola Journal.
Since my little article, to the girls,
appeared in The Journal last Tuesday,
a number of friends have insisted that
drop a note to the boys and older
boys, so here goes:
At eleven the average boy in Pen
sacola knows everything outside of
home. At 10 to Is he knows that my
old man" and my old woman" (his
parents) are 'old fogIes and moss
backs and should have been dead 20
years ago" At Is he has taken full
charge of everything except himself,
and he let's his mother and sisters do
that. They see all the glory and
promise Of his future, and decide that
his case must be deasr with very eau
tiously and tenderly because ''he
knows" So you see there is not much
use trying to repeat to the boys the
same ''old stale rot that they have
been hearing for the past sixteen thou
sand years.
In the first place the boys and men
must be allowed to stay out all night
and dissipate in any old way that suits
their refined inclinations best. They
are strong and brave. They are grant
ed all the special privileges which are
not becoming to sisters and wives and
mothers and of course they must make
good.
The little fellows who play ball,
slingshots, Rookie and frog-ponds by
day, and at night get in punches on
the corners, "cuss," say cute, smutty
things, puff cigarettes, smoke under
one eye and do all kinds OF ugly mid
,,s- Il
anything. They are just a little afraid
that something might happen If they
go to bed. They are simply smelling
mice. They can't help it. The old
folks needed the spanking for not CIV
ing them lunch to take along.
Now let us approach the young man
who knows whereof he exists, and how
everything else just happened to ap-
pear on the face of the earth. This is
the guy who wears pink socks, deep
cuff pants and hat zigzag over the
back left ear. He eats everything. All
girls look good" to him except the
good girls. He shoots billiards, pool
poker, craps, and wind for pastime,
and borrows money at % per cent in
terest. He knows the character and
nativity of everything except himself
He watches and bets on shapes
chicken fights, races, beer gardens and
baseball returns. He is not at all sur
prised to see that all the girls would
chase their heels and telephones off
to win his admiration and respect.
He stays out all night because it is
dark and he is strong and has special
privileges. He has taught the old folks
that he is not the only one going to
hell Girls If Won find that the tendAr
elements Of your heart move in his
direction, go take carbolic acid. He's
all right and mamma thinks tsRt all

THE RECALL AND THE
AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION
Editor Pensacola Journal.

Editor Pensacola Journal.
The National American Ear Associa-
ton is making some very bold asser-
tons about the recall and that it is
unconstitutional.
Permit me to offer a precedent in
favor of the constitutionality of the re-
call.
1t is the case of Crenshaw VS.. United
States 134 U. S. 103.
James D. Crenshaw, a naval cadet
denied the power of congress to recall
him, for the reason that he held an
office by contract with the Unied
States, and was entitled on graduation
to be a midshipman to serve for life
or during good behavior.
That great southern jurist, Justice
Lamar, delivered the opinion of the
court. 1t is so pat copy a part for
your paper.
TN all these cases there can be no
contract and no irrepealable law, be-
cause they are governmental sub
jects.
They involve public interests, and
legislative acts concerning them are
necessarily public laws.
Every succeeding legislature pos
sesses the same jurisdiction and power
with respect to them as it's predeces-
sor.
The latter have the same power of
repeal and modification which the
former had of enactment.
"A statute under which one takes
Office and which fixes the term of Office
at one year or during good behavior
is the same as one which adds to those
provisions the declaration that the
incumbent shall not be dismissed
therefrom.
Whatever the form Of statute, the
officer under it does not hold by con-
tract.
He enjoys a privilege revocable by
the sovereignty at will; and one leg

The Burglar.

Nc 6NE9t6Fs
It was near midnight's holy hour,
In vain we courted sleep,
The shadows was advancing round
And made our nerves all creep.
When suddenly we heard a sound,
A soft step on the stair,
We gazed into the hall, and 10,
A burglar bold was there.
He acted perfectly at home
And never noticed us,
He went about his business,
Without the slightest fuss.
He must have known he was observed,
Of that we could have vowed
For when he took some of our stuff
We chuckled right out loud.
When ma n-laws false teeth he took,
We smiled chock full of glee,
This burglar was a kind gazabe,
A jolly rogue was he.
And when he took Bills photograph
And dropped it in his sack,
We laughed so loud we could be heard
To Timbuctoo and back.
He carried off our coo-coo clock
nd it neer more will tell
OF our arrival nightly and
Sound our domestic knell.
And when he took our wife's pink hat
We hate from tip to brim,
We felt like getting out of bed
And shaking hands with him.
He took our parrot and we yelled
Aloud in fiendish mirth,
And then. got up and helped him pack
For all that we were worth.
We handed him a good cigar
And made him promise that
Whenever he came round this way
He'd burglarize our fat.

A Good Record.

Ardmore has made a record so lar
during the present sale of Indian
lands of which she may well feel
proud. Police Commissioner Louis
Slaughter stated this morning that,
with all the crowds which have been
here for the past several days at
tending this sale, there has been alb
solutely no disturbance.
When the fact is considered that
there are several thousand out-of-
town people here, strangers from all
over the country, and there has been
nothing to disturb the quiet of the
city. with the one exception of sol
itary Choctaw who managed to find
a crack in the lid and got sleepy
drunk, the record for law abiding
quiet is an exceptional one. 1t is
a record OF which the town as
town, may be proud and it shows fur
ther that the class of people who are
here buying this land belong to that
class who make the most desirable
citizens.
