"A SUGGESTION FOR
CONTINUING THE CHRISTMAS
SPIRIT THROUGH YEAR

Editor Pensacola Journal,
Now that Christmas has come and
gone, let us pause for a moments re-
hect1on. As usual much good has
been done, many hearts have been
made happy, the burden of many a one
has been lifted, and we emerge with
a larger vision and lighter hearts.
Such is the spirit OF Christmas, that
blessed season that comes to us once
q year.
One Is struck upon reading the ac-
counts OF the dispensing Of mans
generosity by such expressions as
This is true religion" This is applied
Christianity Il contributed this year.
but next year viii double my sub
scription."
But why wait until next Christmas /?
Now that we have grasped the idea
aud see what a blessing it is to be able
to do something, why not carry with
us throughout all the year that Christ
mas spirit that brings to us so much
genuine happiness at this season?
Are We going to apply our Chris
t1anity' only one day out Of 365? Let
the citizens of Pensacola try the ex-
pertinent of carrying the spirit of this
blessed season into their every dav
lives throughout the year, and the re-
suit would be marvellous. and when we
come to celebrate Christmas of 1914 it
will be with deeper meaning. and d
broader vision than we have ever had
before.
The opportunity is ours, win we
grasp it7

MRS. SHEAR DISCUSSES THE

Editor Pensacola. Journal:
While in Grand Rapids, Mich, some
years ego, I was asked where L was

was very much surprised to hear the
inquiry, Where is PensacoIa?'
That time is past. People have
learned where we are, but there are
other things they would like to know.
they are asking, What is Pensacola ?''
and the answers vary with the point
OF view. The real-and the unreal
estate boomers say: 1--WE have the
finest location on the gulf. miles OF
side walk and pavement. fine city wa
ter, grand harbor, boating, surf bath
ing, etc. All OF which is true, But
when the homeseeker comes along. he
is apt to ask: Is Pensacola a good
moral town? VIII my boys and girls
be surrounded by good infiuences?''
Then, if he is told the truth, ne win
hear something like this: "No, I cant
call Pensacola good moral town It's

Messing such a disgusting sight Every
man who votes to retain the saloon

such exhibitions and that he will be

throughout the United States. in the
hope that If the girl is suffering from
aphasia the sight OF her brothers pic

A reward of $1,000 has been offered
for information leading to the discov-
cry of the missing girl, and arrange
ments are being made to have her pho

moving picture shows throughout the
These moves were decided upon after
a search Of nearly two weeks had been
unproductive of a single new clue to
her whereabouts.
These are two reasons for our do

to stimulate the search for Jess. and

days, said that the hunt for his sis

still While he felt fairly sure that
she had been in PhiladetDhia the night
after she left home. he was equally
