Kaiser'S Troops Have LOST Not Less
Than Twenty-Five Thousand
German Attack Liegc Renewed Last Night and
This Morning Was Repulsed With Awful
Slaughter and Have Withdrawn From
Field To Await Arrival of
Heavy Artillery.

Brussels, Aug. Late this after
noon the general in command of the
German forces before Liege sent a
flag of truce to the Belgian command
er and asked for an armistice to bury
the dead on the field of battle.
The German losses in the attacks
on the Belgian forts already total
over $4,000 men.
So serious are the German losses
that it is believed that no further at
tacks will be made until heavier ar
tillery is Brought forward to batter
down the Belgian forts.
II is probable that the Belgian
army will retire to the second line Of
defence at Namur in order to form a
junction with the French army now
advancing to aid the Belgisns.

Four car loads Of equipment az the
marines formerly stationed at She
Pensacola navy yard were shipped
yesterday to the Philadelphia yard,
where the regiment will be sent from
Vera Cruz. This shows that the men
will not be returned to the local navy
yard. The equipment was left here
when the men were ordered to Vera

when the department announced that
all marines would be returned to the
stations from which they were taken
it was thought the regiment would
come to Pensacola.

Because Of its peculiar power Of alb

Before thoroughly dry, annoint face aqd

The favorite way is TO use before "

and washing II off in the morning with
warm water. All druggists have this

DO JUSTICE TO COMMUNITY
BY SETTLING INDEBTEDNESS
Editor Pensacola Journal.

Editor Pensacola Journal.
| believe If every resident of Pensa-
cola, man, woman and child would
on a certain day do justice to their
own pride and to the community in
general by paying what they owe, it
would relieve the terrible financial
tension and start us on the road to
prosperity. Realizing that for many
it would be impossible to do this, I
would ask that all pay as much as
they can, making it an obligation on
specified day,
Our president has named October 4th
as the day of general prayer for peace.
Why not make the following day.
October 5th, obligation Day. and
by honestly paying our debts show
that we are striving to observe that
our prayer be heard? Why not make
the sacrifice OF that proposed little
trip, that social entertainment you
were intending TO give and so one till
you are honorably free from money
obligations?
/ have known many towns, but I
have never known one so cursed with
the habit of irresponsiblity regarding
debt. 1t is noticeable among our
young, even to the children. Small
amounts are borrowed and the pay
ment carelessly or altogether forgot
ten. Then unreasonable Indignation
shown if reminded of the obligation.
These are strong words but are not
written to offend. We are all prone
to error and habit is a tyrant and
a fault recognized is a fault half
cured.
We are passing through strenuous
times owing to outside disturbances.
Our merchants are pressed almost 20
the breaking point. The fan season
is here and they must have new
stocks; how are they to get them if
we do not come forward and pay for
the old ones we have had enc hefle-
fit of? Buy on credit? Yes. If they
can; but that is the trouble With the
conditions. Everything is on The
credit system.
There can be no real and lasting
prosperity on such a basis. No town,
no state, no nation can enjoy contiuu-
ed prosperity without honestly paying
it's debts.

by a plus or minus sign, accord
