PENSACOLA VE SsEL
HAS WIRELESS SENT
FOR IMMEDIATE AID
CAPTAIN cooNEY OF THE
SMACK IDA S. BROOKS, SENDS
REQUEST VIA TAMPA FOR
NEEDED ASSISTANCE.

Seven hundred miles away from
Pensacola, and in need of help, was
the reported condition of the fishing
smack Ida S. Brooks, of the Saunders
Fish Company's feet. yesterday, such
request coming via Tampa from the
British steamship Jose de Larrinaga,
from Manchester to Galveston.
According to the position given by
the smacks commander, the vessel is
700 miles from Pensacola, and it is
thought will be rugged up with some
sort of sail, by which the Pensacola
craft can work her way over to the
Florida coast perhaps, and there OBJ
tain the assistance needed. It is be-
lieved the smack had encountered
heavy weather, and is either dismast-
led tirely or stripped of her sails.
She left here about two weeks ago
1t is believed that the Brooks, over
in the western gulf, was met by the
steamship named above, and then was
asked to report position and condition
by wireless to the nearest station
thence by wire to the owners at Pen,
sacola. This wire reached Pensacola
yesterday.
The tug Sea King will shortly reach
Havana, having started for that place
a few days ago. On her return TRIP
she will bring barge or two, but il

4 fine MILITARY
. FUNERAL SERVICE
At Fl. BARRANCAs
IMPRESSIVE SERVICES OVER
REMAINS OF PRIVATE CASSI-
DA OF THE 16sRD COMPANY
FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

A full military funeral service was
conducted over the ramaazs of Private
James K. Cassida, t&1sd Company C.
A. c., Friday afte1zssa by Chaplain
Samuel j. Smith, C. A. c., and was
largely attended by the troops of the
Pensacola defences. Private Cassida
responded to the final call little be-
fore noon Oh the 23rd inst.
The service was very impressive.
The ritual, music and the entire set
ting contributed towards the object
that should ever be uppermost on
such occasions; l. e., the appeal to
the spiritual side of those present.
Chaplain Smith delivered a most i'm
pressive Grafton ''The Spirit of the
True Soldier" in which he showed that
the true soldier should strive to over
come that great enemy, fear,-that, a
true soldier will never make excuses
for carrying out the simplest or the
most daring duty that his profession
requires;-though tenderest ties may
often have to be broken that man who
is not willing to carry out to the full
est measure of his duty is governed
by that monster, fear-and such a
person is not worthy the title of ga
Soldier and a Man"
He said that the dead comrade had
eliminated fear from his life, that the
last talk he had with the deceased he
made most impressive statement: at
is sweet to be here and alive, but I am
not afraid to die in the hope of just
and merciful God"
The remains were taken to Port
land Fla, the home of the dead sol
der.

Developing Standards of
Rural Child Welfare.

The need for developing standards
of rural child welfare, physical stan
dards for children in industry, an6
standards of law for the protection of
all children, is the key note of the
third annual report of the children's
bureau of the United States depart
ment of labor which will be made pub
lie today.
"Three-ffths of the 100000 chill
dren in the United States are rural
children. What are the facts as to
rural child welfare? They are not
known. But it is noteworthy that the
percentage of illiteracy in rural COM
munities, according to the 1910 cen
sus, is double that in cites. Where
the rural child labor is great, the per-
centage of child illiteracy is high. The
juvenile delinquency laws on the
statute books of most of our states
are ineffective over the greater part
of those states because rural proba-
ton officers are lacking; ard the
figures of correctional institutions
show that the country is largely rep
resented.
"Time and money are required to
secure the facts about the physical,
social, and economic conditions sur
rounding rural children, but these con-
ditions must be understood if we are
sure that we are making progress in
securing fair chance for every child.

After quoting the opinion of various
scientists, the report continues: "Ful

"A Merry Christmas to
All Journal Readers

The Journal once more wishes its
readers Merry Christmas. It seems
only few days since that we did the
same thing, but time flies fast with its
joys and sorrows, successes and re-
verses, and the years come and go
almost before we realize it.
Pensacola has much to be thank
full for this Christmas. The year has
seen the community emerge from con-
ditions of depressing business char
acter. That the city has weathered
this financial storm and is today on
footing Is one of the many reasons
why we should be thankful and enjoy
Christmas in the manner that is typi-
cal of the normal Pensacola. It is a
different city, more prosperous city
and each man has more confidence in
his neighbor and feels kindly towards
all those with whom he is acquainted.
But far better still are the pros
poets for 1916, for Pensacola will en-
ter the new year with a bright future
ahead. Christmas one year from to-
day will see a greater advancement
than has ever before been known for
any twelve months.
The Journal therefore. FEELS that it
can today wish its friends a Merry
Christmas IN the full meaning of the
tenn, and it does so heartily and sim
cerely. May you all, each one of you
enjoy the occasion according TO the
Christmas spirit and live to see many
more Christmas anniversaries equally
as happy, if not happier, than this one

set in Indiana when that state was on:
