Under a scare-head on the front
page OF the Marlboro Daily Enter
prise, Of Marlboro, Mass. which reads
Not So Warm in South Say Marlboro
Folks" we find this comment: w. A..
Whitman writes from Pensacola, Fla,
to member Of The Enterprise staff:
Just a word to let you know you can
not have all the cold weather in Mas
sachusetts-o "a below zero here
this morning-coldest in seven years. :,
The Journal is surprised that Mr..
Whitman or anyone else would make
such statement in regard to climatic
conditions in Pensacola. AS matter
Of fact the coolest weather Pensa-
cola experienced this winter was 26
above zero, and it might have been
the intention of Mr.. Whitman to so
report It. Occasionally Pensacola does
have freezing weather, but when the
temperature reaches the freezing point
during the night, by noon of the fol-
lowing day the air is SO pleasant and
the sunshine SO warm that no wraps
are needed. The Journal asks the
Enterprise to kindly make the correc-
ton in regard to Pensacola weather.

Monument Greater
Thai marble Shaft.

The Journal asks pardon for making
a suggestion where one has not been
asked for. but feeling an intense in
terest in the monument which is to be
erected to the Florida Women Of the
confederay. the thought came to us
that something other than a marble
shaft might be better monument to
those noble women whose deeds Of
valor, bravery and saaf-sacrifce were
no less than those Of the men OF the
confederacy.
Il those good women whose memory
the monumsat is to perpetuate could
express = desire The Journal feels
sure that they would with one accord
approve OF the suggestion that The
Journal humbly ofHers to those in
charge OF soliciting funds and who
have the selection Of the style Of
monument.
Instead Of marble OF bronze slab
or statue. would not a hospital for
sufferers from tuberculosis be of vastly
moro benefit? And would not an in
stitution Of this character be in
thorough accord with the self-sacr1-
ncing nature OF tho good women of
these days who cared for the afflicted
Would not an institution which would
restore health and happdneAe to sick
people 1--we always and the benefited
onea live e bless the memory OF Flor
ida's noolesk creatures?
Il Is proposed that the monument
shall cost tea thousand dollars, and II
THE amount were expended for a
binding there would be hundreds Of
othsrs who would bs eager to con-
trioute funds for the equipment. There
are dozens Of land owners IN the state
who would contribute ten. twenty or
forty acres for an institution of this
character and altogether The Journal
feels that instead Of q monument
costing ten thousand dollars an insti-
ton costing fifty thousand dollars
could be easily provided and the funds
for its maintenance would be forth
coming without worry on the part OF
the trustees.
There is not sanitarium for caring
for tubercuiar patients in Florida, and
the other hospitals refuse such pa
tents. Florida sunshine ana health
ful surroundings and baImy climate
are the things that heal this class OF
sufferers, ana The Journal feels that
If a memorial in the form OF an In
stitution of this character could
stand as a monument to the Confed-
crate Women of Florida it would be
fitting land proper.
without wishing to trespass on for
hidden grounds The Journal makes
this suggestion because it believes
that the best that can be given to the
memory Of F1orida's women is some
thing that viii be of benefit to suffer
ing humanity.

Flowers in the Window,
Cheer in the Heart.

Did you ever stop to observe how
the beauty and brightness Of flowers
is lent to the faces of women who
lovingly care for them?
There is a certain relation between
the flowers that grow in the pots in
your own window and your own
spirits
And, whether consciously or not, you
are affected in no small degree by
the blossoms and their state of pros
perity.
If the flowers come out bravely and
bloom as they should you are CORE
spondingly elated. The sight of them
Ttranquilizes the nerves. The odor
soothes the temper. The very pres
ence of the CHEEKY growing things
makes you content with the earth
and your lot upon it. And this is felt
not only by you, but by every man
and woman who grows flowers and
loves them.
Have you not among your acquaint-
ances some kind soul who revels in
her window garden? In the winter it
is filled with bloom, when other VIM
dows stare bleak and bare into the
street In the summer it is twice as
gay; and the woman who tends the
garden spot IS seen perpetually hover
ing over the sweet beds.
Did you ever know such a woman TO
be peevish, pessimistic. or anything
but busy and contented with life?
She herself is a bright flower casting
beauty and cheer into the world.
The secret lies in the fact that we
get out OF life only what we put into
It.
We grow only as we give.
The care Of flowers is good exercise
for the muscles and better still for
the nerves. for it trains to tenderness
of touch; the thought of them is good
occupation for the mind: the love for
them develops and sweetens the spirit.
Love for flowers is sunshine in the
soul.
The heart devoted to flowers is q
flower garden itself. sweetening its
atmosphere with immeasurable in
fiuences Tor good.
