NEW COCOA MAN
IN PENSACOLA
SPEAKS IN FLATTERiNG TERMS
OF DEEP WATER cITY'S PRES
EMIT AND FUTURE-JOURNA
ADVERTISING HELPING HIS
BUSINESS.

A. J. Edmondston, representing Van
Houten and zoon, the makers of Roma
Cocoa, is in Pensacola today and is
delighted with the appearance OF the
city and with the business he is doing
here.
Il hear a great deal about Pensa-
COLA" said Mr. Edmondston to a Jour
nal representative yesterday, land
some OF my friends are talking Of in
vesting in property here. I regard the
city as having a very bright future
and West Florida as a section of great
possibilities"
Mr.. Edn1ondston says that Roma Co
Goa is having a remarkable sale. The
Lewis Bear Company and the WeIles-
Kahn Company are distributors for
this section, and the fine advertising
that The Journal and other papers
have been carrying has created a de-
mand from the public that has made
this popular price cocoa necessary
part of the retailers stock.
The use of cocoa, Mr.. Edmondston
says, is growing ali over the world and
is rapidly taking the place of other
table and refreshment drinks. An at
tractive feature of Roma Cocoa is that
it is imported and is sold at half the
price of domestic cocoa.

ACCIDENT ON
REPAIR TRACK
Martin GilbertSOn Seriously In
iured Under Car While
at Work.

Martin Gilbertson, Of the Great
Northern track repair crew, was very
seriously injured this morning at ten
o'clock, while at work on a car on
the cinder track. The car was lifted
by means of crane, and Gilbertson
was ordered to get under and remove
the centerpin Of the truck, which
he did. While under the car the cable
slipped and Martin was pinned un-
derneath being doubled up with his
face against his legs. Fortunately
the car was instantly raised, which
mo doubt saved the injured man from
immediate death. He was horribly
bruised however, and his condition is
very serious. He did not lose con-
sciousness. He was blind for time,
but soon recovered his sight. He
was taken to the Bethesda hospital
where everything that medical skill
can do is being done. He is resting
easy at this writing and hopes are
entertained for his recovery. His
wife, a daughter Of Hans Brix of
New London, is at the bedside of her
husband.
