LENTEN SEASON
AND SOMETHING
OF FEAST DAYS
PRACTICAL CESSATION FROM
SOCIAL FUNCTIONS AND PRAc-
rlcALLX. NO FORMAL AFFAIRS
WILL BE GIVEN FOR FORTY
DAYS.

Lenton season is being strictly OBJ
served in Pensacola, and the practical
cessation from all social functions, ana
the absence of formal affairs, will lead
one who gives the subject a thought
into better ways Of living For the
next forty days. or less when this is
read, all social affairs will be declared
off. and so understood, although in
formal teas may be INDUCED in for the
pleasure of visitors
At this time Of the year, writes one
who has studied the subject, some of
the society women devote the hours
formerly spent at social functions to
sewing bees are not out of place.
Lent is determined by the moon
Easter day is the first Sunday after
the full moon on March 81. Sunday is
four days later and April 4, therefore
will be Easter.
Having determined Easter, Ash We'd
nesday occurred just forty-six days
earlier, six Sundays or forty week days
or February IT.
Easter has not occurred on the earii-
est possible date, March %, since about
1913, and does not occur on that date
in this century, but in 1913 it occurred
on the next earliest date which was
March %.
Next year Easter will be April 90,
which Is said to oe practically the
latest date on which 1t can occur.
There are eighteen special feast days
in Lent, which all good people strictly
observe. The names of each of them
and the date on which they will re-
spectively occur, are shown on the
Lent calendar to be as follows:

SPEAKS MONDAY
ON SOCIALISM
DAVID eoLDsTElN WILL DELIVER
ADDRESS ON SOCIALISM" uN-
DER AUSPICES or KNIGHTS OF
COLUMBUS.

The Pensacola council OF the Knights
Of Columbus has completed arrange
ments for the free lecture on Christi-
anity versus Socialism, which is to
be given by Mr.. David GoTdstein of
Boston on Monday night in the opera
house. Mr.. Goldstein is a trade union
ist. having played an active part in the
Cigar Makers International Union, in
which he proudly boasts that he holds
a 25-year- old card.
AS a delegate to the Massachusetts,
State Convention Of the American Fed
Grafton of LaDor he was instrumental
in having the first positive pronounce
ment passed by the State Convention of
trade unions against the propaganda
of Socialism within the trade union
movement, and the socialist attempt
from without to destroy the legitimate
unions of labor by the organization of
the Industrial Workers of the World.
There is no doubt that Mr.. Goldstein
knows his subject and knows how to
tell others what he knows. In a good.
clear, capable manner he presents his
reasons why the American people
should take decided stand against
socialism.

INTERESTING STORY BY GIRL
Says That Children May Assist Par.
ents by Giving Them Benefit Of
Education Received.

A very interesting story appeared
in the County Agent recently, written
by little girl eleven years old, who
is her fathers right hand man when
ii comes to keeping books. Mr.. Vaplon
of the Colorado Agricultural college
hopes that inasmuch as all children
are expected to keep records, many
will develop into home bookkeepers.
This little girl. Hazel Kent, says:
bookkeeping is the most important
part OF any business; farming is a
business just the same as banking,
hence 1t Is just as necessary for a
farmer to keep a record of his &C.
counts as II is for any other man, this
is period of investment in all lines
of business; why cannot the farmer
keep up with the times and put his
business where 1t justly belongs and
run the farm with some system OF
bookkeeping, so he can know at the
end of day, or month, or year, that
the farm is on paying basis; let
the daughter, or daughters, keep the
books for the home and family ac.
counts, and the son, or sons, keep the
books for the farm. II we children
would help our parents in this way
we could give them the benefit of our
education which they are making o
sacrifice to give us. Your banker
would be glad to help you get started
with your books and would take an
interest in you. l know you would

FOUNDATION FOR GOOD ROAD
Firet Thing Road Builder Should
Strive For ls to Have Ground
work Good and Solid.

tBy f. w. HOUSE, Colorado Agricultural
College.)
The good roads movement in Colo
RADIO seems now to have acquired full
swing and the next ten years will see
most of our important roads surfaced
with gravel. 1t is important that this
gravel be placed upon a good founda-
ton or 1t will be mixed with the clay
and lost.
Some time ago an important road
was being surfaced and those In
charge we're blowing up the old road,
which was very hard, the Jumps were
being broken as much as possible,
then the road was given a light roll
ing, wet thoroughly and the gravel
then spread and rolled. When asked
why they we're putting the gravel on
the soft mud foundation, the reply
came 80 that II will knit we'll with
the clay" This is exactly what should
be guarded against as much as posi-
BILE and is the very thing road builders
should seek to avoid.
Let US remember that gravel will
knit or mix with the clay below in
spite of all we can do, but the harder
the clay foundation surface is and the
fiimer II Is compacted, the longer will
the gravel stay on top and give a
smooth wearing surface and the long
er the road will last.
All authorities are agreed on this
point, and the first thing that road
builder should strive for is to have his
earth foundation solid and hard and
the drainage so fixed that 1t will re-
main so.
