BEAUTIFUL BACK YARDS
AS WELL AS FRONT YARDS

Editor Pensacol Journal
Duluth. eight years ago. was like
most other cities. II had tin cans
adjoining its back yards. and rubbish
and weeds and brush. very much like
many yards in Pensacola. Duluth is
situated way up in the north part
81 the United States. where they have
six months winter and three months
cold weather. Pensacola is on the
South bound of the United States.
where vegetables grow luxuriantly the
year round.
Duluth decided to make use OF those
back yards and urged her citizens to
take pride in identifying their homes.
And those who did not have back
yards were given the privilege OF cul-
tivating vacant lots Of other people.
and most owners of lots were glad to
have their lots cultivated The re-
suit is Duluth has become a beauti-
full. healthy and enterprising city.
Women and children enjoy cuItivating
gardens, flowers and fruits. It thus
has reduced the cost Of living, added
health to families, and beauty to the
city.
II this can be done way up there
in the f-czen North. what might Pen
sacola DO made into. where vegetation
grows SO iSAg and so easily as IL does

Tohn L. Sullivan Predicts
Era of No Saloons.

The following press dispatch, con-
tanning an interview with John l.
Sullivan Is illuminating:
Boston, March 1S-"The day is COM
ing when there will be no saloons
There has been a great change in the
last thirty years, and q man can't
drink now and get away with it as he
could then"
John L. Sullivan. formerly worlds
champion pugilist, thus spoke. He had
come to town from his farm, near
North Arlington. and was the picture
uf hale and hearty middle age.
~They said, when ! was whooping II
ND. years ago. that / would die in the
gutter. But fooled them. quit
drinking one night. nine years ago the
6th OF next month, and I haven't
touched q drop since. I was drunk
at the time and had a bottle OF wine
before me, when suddenly I made UP
ray mind I was through. and threw 1t
away.
1t may be noted here that the for
raer prize fighter Is not what they call
q '-reformer." but simply a man who
has been through the MILL has seen
the world, and who speaks from ex-
perience as we'll as from observation.

MONDAY. MARCH Is. 1914.
To Bridge the
Escarabia River.

The proposition to bridge the Es-
Gambia river at four different points,
providing the voters in the Ncvem-
Der election approve the project, Is
one which should be thoroughly
studied during the more than seven
months which intervene until election
time.
The estimated cost OF the four
nr1dges-less than $500, o0O-can be
easily borne by Escambia and Santa
Rosa counties, as It will be divided
between the two and the tax rate will
be 20 light az to scarcely be felt
The one thing that West Flor
more people. But those people never
can be secured unless we offer them
adequate road and bridge facilities for
getting In and out OF the communities
In which they want to settle.
Santa Rosa county constitutes q
ANAL empire, and a very rich one
Certain sections OF Santa Rosa county
possess some OF the richest soil in
Florida Every acre OF that soil
ought TO be under cultivation and It
VIII be II additional inducements can
be held out to settlers to locate there
On the other hand, Pensacola as
che metropolis OF West Florida should
be In touch with the entire section by
wagon road as well as railroad. To-
day. no one from Escambia county can
drive through the rest OF West Flor
ida without going up into Alabama to
get across the river. The lack II
bridge facilities is a handicap to the
development OF both Escambia and
Santa Rosa counties.
The Journal invites communications
on this bridge project-either for or
against it We should have 8 full dis
cussion and q thorough understanding
OF the matter before election time.

Teach the Children
Their Responsibility.

Pensacola has an admirable park
system. and has spent much money
and time IN planting and cultvating
these public gardens. But, in spite
OF all efforts, now and then acts of
vandalism and lawlessness are COM
united. usually by the ignorant. or by
chiluren, who do not understand the
obligation that rests upon them to re-
spect the property OF others.
But respect for property rights can
be taught to even the youngest child.
ard IL one OF the first moral ooliga-
ticLs that should be inculcated. It IS
lessen that can be and should be
taught even to the youngest.
A small Pensacola boy, living near
one Of the city squares found it hard
81 learn the difference between mine"
and thine" When he admired a
flower. he saw no reason why he
should not pick it for his mother.
Ee was allowed TO play IN the park.
and he could not understand the re-
Strictions that caused him SO much
trouble and many family reprimands.
At last . policeman was detailed TO
watch the park for while, after GER
tain acts OF lawlessness had been
committed. and the reason for the Of
ficer having been placed there was
explained to the child. he was told

here on the sea shore OF Florida ?
Look around your city and see here
nice vacant lot grown up to brush,
or weeds and adjoining it is an en-
terprising citizen beautifying his yard
only to be fringed by ugly surround
ings and his yard to be reseeded to
/ weeds by bis neighbours unkept lot.
! 1t is surprising how much can be
grown on a lot in Pensacola at small
expense. And it is a shame and dis
grace to Pensacola to ride over the
city and see so many ragged and I'M
kept yards and houses.
The home gardens in Duluth have
drawn children from the streets and
made them enthusiasts for the garden.
1t has drawn men from the saloons
and idle habits and made them home
lovers.
Its Commercial club has discovered
that where beautiful homes are built
and contented people are found, fac
tory pIarts are disposed to locate.
There are enough vacant lots and
idle back yards in Pensacola TO sup
ply its citizens with luscious fruits
and all their garden truck. 1t would
give life and beauty TO our little city
to see no unkept lots and yards in
the city. There are plenty OF poor
people VINO WOUIO SlaGI% take care OF
these lots if given the chance 10 gar
den them for what they can raise
The moral effect on a city is good.
1t develops a talent in children for
gardening. Among / boring people it
lessons the demand for gambling. for
saloons and such resorts. Salaried
men have less trouble TO make ends
meet.
The cultivation Of the back yard
fer profit, has brought ont the front
yards for flowers. and the result is
beautiful front yards must follow IN
the thrift.
Why can't Pensacola start 4 Home
crafters' club and give prizes to the
most successful gardener and thus
give an impetus to building z city
beautiful. not only among the rich,
but the poorest Of the poor? Leave
no ugly or unkept spots IN the city
and how soon you viii find your city
attracting strangers to live among
you, when they see what a beauti-
tul spot in the world Pensacola can
be made
