WANT To SAVE
GEORGIA PARK
CITIZENS ASK THAT PALAFoX
STREET &c EXTENDEDkRoUND
THE SQUARE INSTEAD OF
THROUGH IT-PETITIoN, AL
REACY LARGELY SIGNED, is
6EING CIRCULATED.

AS the City Beautiful idea has
grown upon the public, more and more
people are realizing the value o. parks,
rot only as a matter of comfort and
pleasure for the city's own people, but
as an advertisement as well.
Years ago, when what is now
known as Georgia Square was away
out in the woods north Of the city,
the wagon road TO the north ran
through the square and, by long Gus
tom, has continued TO be the road
used until this tine. It has, however,
never been officially opened through
the square and now that the street
paving on North Palafox is 20 be ex-
tended. many property owners want
the street to be properly laid out
around the square. Just as 1t now runs
around Lee square. With that idea
in view, the following petition, already
Signed by several hundred people, is
being circulated:
An important Matter.
To the Honorable, the Board Of Bond
Trustees of Pensacola, Fla.
The undersigned petitioners are in

The Dutch neck and the evening gown
too often expose the discolorations and
blemishes Of high collars or the effects
of tan and freckles. It is easy to over
come these conditions and make the neck
beautiful and white and soft and smooth
to remove, in other words, every blenl-
ism and to make the Dutch collar as at
tractive as 1t is comfortable. This pre-
scrtption can also be used on the shoul-
ders. and it is marvelously effective to
beautify the hands and arms

having, as is also the case with Lee
Square, streets on all four sides OF II.
Permanently to pen a paved street
through il not only takes a part of the
square for a purpose for which it was
not dedicated to the public and In
effect destroys the remainder as a
park, and turns it into front yards
for the citizens living on the east
and west sides Of the square as laid
off, but also permanently destroys the
symmetry and beauty OF the plan Of
Palafox street for 1t may be safely
assumed that paved way ia intendedI
to be permanent and not merely tenn
porary.
Your honorable body cannot be I'M
mindful Of the fact that one OF the
chief beauties Of Garden and Palafox
streets, which arrests the attention and
provokes the admiration OF citizens
and strangers alike, is the central park
with paved ways on each side. On the
two streets mentioned you have, so
far, rigidly adhered to that idea, and
il would now, in our humble opinion,
be exceedingly unfortunate for the
sake Of a relatively trifling saving, TO
spoil the symmetry of the plan and in
fact destroy as a park what naturally
is, and in the future could be, and
ought to be made, one of the most
attractive public SQUARES Of the city.
1t is true that the hard road part OF
Palafox street has been made to run
through Georgia Square, but It has all
along been supposed that that ar
rangement was a mere temporary
makeshift and would not be adhered
to in any scheme of permanent i'm
provement. We regard It as of prime
importance that the public squares,
as laid down upon the maps, be pre-
served intact not only because Of the
beauty Of the plan, but as convenient
places of public resort for the citi-
zens Of the town.
We now, therefore, respectfully re
tition your honorable body in the pAv-
ing Of Palafox street TO have the work
so done that the paved ways shall
run on the east and west sides OF
Georgia Square, thereby preserving It
as a public park.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: Please tell
me how to furnish my daughters bed

me soon, as want the room to sur
prise her when she gets home in
August
MOTHER.
I wish you had told me what kind
of furniture you have in the room.
If you are getting new furniture, try
to get the white enameled kind,
which is always suitable and pretty
for q girls room. If you cannot get
that, have some very light wood.
If the room is already furnished
with a dark wood, have the draperies
and rugs as light as possible.
With white furniture, get lawn
with pink flowers on a white back
ground. You can get this in the
dress goods section of a store cheap
er than in the upholstery department.
Make curtains Of this for the win
dows, finishing edges Of curtains with
ruffles of the same goods, or coarse
white lace Also make draperies for
the dresser and commodet Cf you
have one) or table to match the cur
tains-
Now, make spread for the bed,
with a fiat center and ruffles for
sides and foot Of bed. Pillow shams
to match. You might also make a
pretty rufTle cushion of the same
goods, for one Of the chairs.
Have rag rugs. with some pink in,
for the floor.
If the furniture Of the room is
dark. have the curtains and draperies
white with pink edging, or tie them
back with wide rink ribbon.
II you are going to have the room
re-papered, get white paper with a
wide satin stripe, or with vines of
delicate pink flowers, and a border
containing pink flowers.
With a little thought and trouble
you can develop 3 room that will he
