Just for Convenience.

Entirely apart from the many
other advantages of a Person
al Checking Account at the
Bank, the convenience of it is
no small consideration. The
ability to make purchases and
pay bills after banking hours
without the necessity of al
ways having a pocketful of
money is worth a great deal.
With a Check Book in your
pocket, you are taking no risks
of losing money and yet you
always have all of your money
on hand and ready for use.
One is as liable to need money
before nine in the morning or
after three as between those
hours. The Personal Check
Book settles the matter.

States senators and one congress-
man. Ex-Gov. Gilchrist will find an
active enemy in nearly every man who
applied to him for office, and failed
to get it. He will also encounter the
opposition of those ardent prohibi-
tionists, some of whose bills for re-
stricting the liquor traffic were vetoed
by him While governor, 1t was ma
tural that he should have failed to
please every body, nay, that he should
have made enemies, but we think he
made more friends than enemies. At
any rate his administration surprised
all Of those who had previously re-
garded him as having no ability. His
vetoes for which he became noted,
showed that he was more familiar
than many lawyers with the various
requirements of the state constitution.
This was a surprise to friends and
foe alike, not one in ten of whom be-
lieved that Gilchrist had ever read the
constitution. His support in the race
for senator will come chiefly from
what is known as the conservative ele-
ment of the state Democracy and from
those progressive Democrats who, be-
ing opposed to Senator Fletcher, do
not believe that he can be defeated by
Mr.. Stockton. AS matter of course,
the Herald will support ex-Gov. GIL
christ, because, first 1t knows him TO
be man of integrity and ability; and,
second, because Of long established
personal friendship between him and
the publishers. While advocating him,
it will not seek to disparage the high
character of the other candidates, nor
do them any injustice. The whole
situation may be summed up: 1t was
decided by other people several months
ago that Senator Fletcher must be re-.
tired. If this decision is to be car
ried out, there is no reason why he
should not be succeeded by Albert w.

The Better Babies Contests which

Pact that these contests tend towards

important one. The Woman's Home

Better Babies Contests, which are

Wood Block Paving
In Tampa.

Tampa, living OFF and apart from
the world as she does, may be excused
for not keeping abreast with the times
In every particular, but one would ex-
pect a greater Information on the sub
tect OF street paving than our sister
city seems to possess. For example
read what the Times has to say about
wood block paving:
II the Tampa Times editor viii
visit Pensacola we should be pleased
to show him some OF the best paved
streets in the world--and they are
paved with modern creosoted wood
block. Our brick pavements, too. are
just as good as brick pavements any
where, but in no way-either in looks
smoothness, cleanliness, comfort or
durabiiity--do they equal the wood
block-Pensacola Journal.
The Times merely gave our local
experience with wooden blocks hoping
that you might profit by 1t bat IL
you are determined TO go ahead, why
do so. It isn't our funeral-Tampa
Times.
We are from this led to believe that
Tampa's experience with wood block
paving was bad. She either had the
wrong kind of wood block or she al
lowed some rascally contractor to put
one over on her.
It would be interesting to know just
how recent an experience Tampa has
had with wood block, what kind OF
block it was, how much OF it was laid
and what the contract called for.
We will venture to say, without
knowing anything about the facts in
Tampa's case, that Tampa has never
laid a yard Of modern wood block paw
Ing. Had she done SO. she would have
a different story to tell now. We Will
venture to assert also. without know
Ing the facts in the case, that the edi-
tor of the Times never saw a yard OF
wood block paving outside of Tampa

come convinced Of the superiority OF

where we have four different kinds OF
look at the paving there and listen to
what the people tell you. Go to New

francisco. Go to Chicago and visit
the Loop district-the heaviest traffic
section probably IN the world Look
at them. after trying almost every kind
of known paving. pulling 1t up and
putting down wood block in IT'S place.
In all OF these places the people tell
you the same thing and what they saw
constitutes q tribute to the superiority
OF wood block for It's durability, it's
appearance and. what is more import
ant than all else, IT'S lack OF that noise
and wear and tear which wrecks hu-
man nerves, shortens the life of draft
animals and sends vehicles to the shop
