PROPOSAL AS MADE
IN DIPLOMATIC CONTEST

Berlin, Aug. Silvia London)-
The correspondent at Sofia of the
Vossische Zeitung telegraphed today
an outline of the proposal made to
Bulgaria on both sides of the dip
lomatic contest. His dispatch says:
''The conditions which the Quadrup-
lie Entente imposed on Bulgaria in
return for territorial concessions in
Macedonia stipulated that Bulgaria
obligate itself to declare war on
Turkey.
"The central powers and Turkey for
their part, demanded from Bulgaria
in return for cession of portion Of
the Turkish Thrace an extension of
the hitherto existing benevolent neu-
trality. What this consists of had
best be kept silent for the moment.
It will make itself apparent later, as
soon as events on the Danube front
have advanced far enough.

most boats on the coast of England
at that time have returned, but none
had news of the Arabic. He declared
it would be lamentable if the submar-
inc had been lost as nothing would
ever be learned what had happened.
1t would be possible very soon to
tell whether the approximations re-
garding the submarine are correct.
The, official would not say whether
one or more were still out or how long
any one had been away from the base
but it is said suggestively, that they
seldom remain out longer than three
weeks"

pedoing operations in from eight to
fourteen days, and rarely later than

DONATION Or 10
CENTS IS ASKED
OF ALL CITIZENS
Editor Pensacola Journal:

Editor Pensacola Journal:
During my visit to the new hos
pital last week Sister Veronica
deplored the fact that the i'm
mense lawns surrounding the
building would require considera-
bic labor to maintain properly.
There is now on the market a
low priced power lawn mower
which one man could keep the hos
pital lawn in the best condition.
believe the machine would cost
about $40o and require little
attention and with a low cost Of
maintenance.
As a means of securing such
a machine for the hospital, and at
the same time not burden any
particular person with the dona-
ton of large sums, I would sug-
gest that you interest your
readers and the general public
by asking that they donate the
sum of ten cents per person,
which would make such a machine
a very representative present to
the hospital. Should any one de-
sire to donate larger sum, the
excess over ten cents would es-
tablish sinking fund for repairs
and gasoline. BY limiting dona-
tons to ten cents it would appear
that greater interest would be in
vited.
In the hopes that you will be
able to start this movement am
enclosing 30 cents to represent
the three members Of my family.
With best wishes, I beg to re-
main,
Very truly yours,
