report In detail:
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1915-07-02
To the Public:

The small compensation paid To-
cal agents by Fire Insurance Com
panies for handling their business
and the requirements of these COM
panies as to the prompt remittance
of balances will not permit of ex-
tended credit to the public and at
the same time allow the industry to
remain on legitimate and profitable
basis to the agents.
Therefore to correct the rapidly
growing tendency towards unlimited
extension of credit, which unfortu-
nately has become quite general in
the insurance business In Pensacola,
we the undersigned local agents have
found it necessary to adopt the FOL
lowing rule with reference to the
payment of premiums, which becomes
effective August 1, 1915, viz:
premium In full on each and every
fire and tornado insurance policy
must be paid in cash before the goth
day of the second month following
the month in which the policy is Is
sued, after which time if the premium
on any policy remains unpaid the
agent writing the same shall have no
further option as to extension of
credit and shall Immediately take up
said policy"
We solicit the cooperation of the
insuring public of Pensacola and sin
cerely trust they will appreciate the
necessity prompting this action and
the spirit in which it is intended.

REHEARSING A
NEW NOVEL PLAY
'THE EMBERS" WILL BE PRO-
DUCED IN PENSACOLA-CAST
WILL BE GUESTS AT THE ISIS
SATURDAY.

F. G. Bryan, president of the Isis
Film Corporation announced last
night to the cast of thirty-six mem
bers now rehearsing 1.-THE Embers,"
that Manager L. G. Dawson had in
vited each and every member in the
cast to little theatrical party on
Saturday afternoon, to witness what
the world terms the most gloriously
diabolical temptress "Theda Bara,'
playing her part in the Devils
Daughter"
Manager Dawson is a strong be-
lever in making Pensacola a movie
town and expresses himself in man
ner that should enthuse others. Mr..
Dawson says that he believes in mo-
ton picture manufacturing in Pensa-
cola, because Pensacola has the nat
ural scenery, and the industry is a
business that will bring more cash
money to Pensacola than any other
six businesses combined.
Every picture theatre on the globe
is a prospective customer and when
you say customer, that means spot
cash money must come to Pensacola
for the product.
President Bryan of Isis Film Cor
poration wrote the scenario "The
Embers," which is being rehearsed
by Pensacolians, much to the salts
faction of the officers on the corpora
ton.
Mr.. Parker, the director in charge
of the play, says the results are very
gratifying. With Mr.. Bryan's assis-
lance and the best efforts on the
part of the cast in "The Embers," he
promises the people of Pensacola
picture that will be credit to all.
! Mr.. Bryan is working overtime
completing the scenario, entitled "Fht
Mistress of Satan," written from hi!
own poem of the same name.
Many people who have read thu
poem, ''The Mistress of Satan" say i
is far stronger than "a Fool Their,
Was" The Isis Film Corporation
will follow "The Mistress of Satan
with sequel story, entitled 'Brough
Back, or Remorse," by the same au
thor.
"Movies for Pensacola" is Manage
IDavison's slogan.

DO YOUR VERY BEST.
Be Earnest and Thorough and You Arc
Bound to Succeed.

Bound to Succeed.
There is a feature Of Dickens char
acter which canno be too often or too
seriously insisted upon, and that is his
intense earnestness and thoroughness
in everything he did. He said to me
more than once:
MY dear boy, do everything at your
best. If you do that neither l nor any
one else can find fault with you, even
If you fail. For myself, l can honestly
say that l have taken as great pains
with the smallest thing l ever did as
with the biggest"
In giving advice to a young author he
said on one occasion:
"If you want your public to believe
in what you write you must believe in
1t yourself. When l am describing a
scene l can as distinctly see what I
am describing as l can see you now. So
real are my characters to me that on
one occasion l had fixed upon the
course which one Of them was to Dur.
sue. The character, however, got hold
of me and made me do exactly the on
posite to what l had intended. but 7
was so sure that he was right and 7
was wrong that l let him have his own
way"
Whatever he did either in work or
ut play he always gave Of his very best.
He hated slackness or half heartedness
IN any shape or form.-Harper's

Verse IA terrific message.
Omri made a name for himself among
the n%eighboring nations, as is evil
denced by the Moabite stone, which is
an ancient inscription concentrating
the victories Of Mesha, king Of Moab.
His reign was marked by great mate
rial progress, but there was a great
decay morally and religiously. Ahab
came into a complicated legacy, and
he made matters worse by his impe-
realistic policies. The Syrians had over-
run the land during the reign Of Omri,
and Benhadad thought he could easily
bring the Israelites into subsection
when Ahab came to the throne. He
acceded to the Syrian up to a certain
point, but when the Syrian demanded
that his servants should be allowed to
go through the capital of Samaria and
seize whatever they desired Ahab en-
phatically refused, being unwilling to
submit to such humiliation. He was
encouraged to take this stand by an
unknown prophet, who also assured
him of victory owe the Syrian army
Xxx, 49,. Would that he had always
taken counsel from the servants of Je-
hovah. But, alas, his hands We're tied
through his marriage with JeZebel, the
daughter Of Ethbaal, king Of Zidon in
Phoenicia. One of her first acts was to
establish a temple to the honor of Baal-
Melkarth, the god Of her native land.
YNl,ic l,oothnn %ornr1o with ifc o1fop, md
priesthood. its splendor and spectacu-
lar display, by contrast belittled the
temple Of Jehovah. Many Israelites
We're led astray. Ahab was so COM
pletely in the hands Of his wife and
was so weak in character that nothing
was said against these encroachments
of heathenism. None Of the religious
leaders seemed to have shown any
courage in this time Of grave crisis and
peril. The tame subservience and the
servile cowardice Of those in power, as
we'll as the reckless self assertion of
Jezebel. We're suddenly and dramatical-
ly exposed. "Elijah the Tishbite." The
name had never been heard Of before,
but henceforth it was never to be for
gotten. Gilead was situated i'm the
highlands on the east Of the Jordan,
where desert and mountain meet. "The
Lord Goa Of Israel" The name of
Jehovah. the God of Israel. had not
been used with such prophetic JUNCTION
and authority for many years. Before
whom l stand" He came as the serv-
ant of the Highest and to do his bid
ding without fear or favor. "Dew nor
rain" The rain falls from November
to Marcel. and for the rest Of the year
