The purpose IS TO bring into exist
ence a body of sober thought as to the
business management OF the water
ways, not regarding them as bludgeons
to be swung over the heads of the
railroads, but regarding them as a
physical asset of the United States
an essential part of the three fold
transportation system-an economic
loss if unutilized, and an enormous
pCtential economic gain when utilized
in a practical manner.
1t will be the purpose to bring out
that such utilization will require the
handling of the waterways of the
country from a non-political. non-par-
tisan standpoint, and in a manner
which will treat the waterways as a
unit of transportation, provide fol
their development and use and main
terance.
In other words, to handle the water
ways as transportation companies
handle the railroads. A brief review OF
the present methods of handling the
waterways will be given, also a plan
suggested. the purpose of which viii

Dear Mrs. Thompson am young
raan and l want to join a military
company, but I have a dreadful feeling
OF fear every time I think we might
be called away to war. Do you think
l am a coward? A. H. B.
Courage is indeed a queer thing
Many q good general has turned
deadly sick in the midst of battle,
though possessed of the finest physi-
cal courage. You never can tell. The
weak often appear strong and the
strong weak when confronted by
danger. That you think you lack
courage is nothing to be ashamed Of
1t will probably be there when the
times to show it arrives.
Dear Mrs. Thompson want to let
a certain party know something about
another one. Do you think it would
be right for me to send letter with
no name signed? ALLEN.
To send an anonymous letter in
which you make serious charges
against any one without giving them
an opportunity for replying is one of
the most cowardly actions Of which
any one is capable. If you have good
grounds for what you allege, why
don't you sign your name and give
Your address? And instead of bring
ing vague charges without proof, you
should give some evidence in support
of them. In that way a full investiga-
ton can be made.

You should tell this jealous young
lady that while you are civil to all
l5dies who patronize the place of bust
ness where you are employed. your
love and affection are for her and her
alone. Tell her that no lady with
whom you have ever converted is half
so charming as she is, and that she is
the one girl in the world for you.
Probably after this the fierce fires of

on being civil to customers as be-
fore.

EILEEN.
Certainly you should speak to him
when you meet just as before In ask
ing you to be his wife he has paid you
the greatest compliment man can pay
to woman, and the fact that YOU had
to refuse his offer should make you
more kindly disposed to him than be-
fore. To pass him on the street as if
he were a stranger is both unworthy
of you and unjust and unkind to him.

PHONES ON BLINK
AS DEAR OLD LADY
MENDS HER SOCKS

Subscribers on a certain line of
a rural telephone company at Mil

what IL was that made something
go wrong with their telephones every
Tuesday and Thursday.
After the thing had gone on for
several weeks, with the line In per-
feet working order i've days out Of
each week, the perplexed wire chief
sent a lineman out one Tuesday with
instructions 10 call the exchange
from each telephone in the trouble
zone.
At the fourth house he found a
farmers wife sitting beside her
phone mending socks with the tele-
phone receiver inside of a sock. She
exiained that she had lost her gourd
and found the receiver q good CUB
stitute. She was very methodical,
and always darned socks on Tues
day and Thursday. which accounted
for the regularity with which the
phone wen. out Of commission.

SATURDAY AFTERNOON
IN AND AROUND PENSACOLA.

Saturday afternoon is proving more

relaxation in Pensacola, and if society

or at the San Carlos hotel, there are
any number of other informal after
noon teas elsewhere, that form of hos
pitality being of growing popularity in

Today will be no exception to the
rule, and the golf and tennis matches
at the Country club will serve as
added inducements.

LADIES SHOULD RECEIVE
EVERY POSSIBLE AID,

Apropos to the fine work which is
being accomplished through their eff
forts, the ladies of the Relief Assoc
citation are attracting much favorable
attention as a charity organization,
and are deserving of the good will
and help of everyone. Their recent
concert, while a success, will not mean
that they can go on indefinitely help

funds on hand, and Pensacola should
look well out for one of her best and
worthiest bodies of philanthropical
workers.

CUMMING, GA, July 20, 1912.
Mr.. Editor, Dear Sir:
| see in the last issue of your paper
an article headed Joint Speaking" at
Blue Ridge, Ca, copied from the Ma
rietta Daily Herald.
l am not surprised that no name ap-
pears to this article. If the author of
it will sign his name to it, or give me
his name, l will pay him my respects,
and have, from disinterested parties, a
true and correct report of the speaking
above referred to, published. The
article published is so absurdly false
and ridiculous that it is not entitled to
notice, unless the author will make his
name known.
The intelligent voters of the Blue
Ridge Circuit will not be deceived by
any such cheap, clap-trap publications.
Respectfully,

Discussed Issues of Cam

Court House.

Col. H. L. Patterson, candidate for
Judge of the Blue Ridge circuit, spoke
at the Court House here on Monday
night. There was large crowd of in
terested voters present and the crowd
was in jolly good humor.
Col. C. H. Griffin presided over the
meeting and Col. Patterson was intro
duced by Mr.. Lindley Camp. Col.
Patterson was greeted with burst of
applause and a call to "pull off your
coat" He complied with the good ma
tured command and many of those in
the court room did likewise.
Col. Patterson said that he and Judge
Morris were good friends and that
there was no personal animosity in his
views as expressed in his speeches.
He merely wanted to explain his views
on the conduct of court and state how
he would have handled some cases
differently from the manner in which
they were handled by Judge Morris.
Supporters of the Colonel are claim
ing that his speech on Monday night
made him many friends among those
who were still undecided.
