SUGGEST ANOTHER WAY OF
PUTTING PENSACOLA ON MAP

Editor Pensacola Journal.
Doctor Benn wants Pensacola
painted, and put on the map, and is
willing to help do it, but realizes that
something more than 33 feet of water
and mile high climate is needed. His
appeal for factories was UNDECIDED,
forest products are on the blink and
what is to follow?
Kindly let me suggest direct
answer to this direct question.
Last week it was fully proven to
us that Is of this county's boys have

Thousands of acres of high price,
corn belt lands of the north can d.

will more than pay for all fertilizer
used IN making our corn.
A cannery in our county has to ad

by which one good crop will return it

1T WAS easier for Washington to

Federal administration with men who
could lend like flavor to the conduct
Of affairs
Ambitious men looked askance upon
the new government; preferred the
service OF their States. If they wished
political office at all; had to be per-
suaded to take Federal Office, and were
asked to say nothing of the offer and

Fortunately, there were not many Of
fees to be filled. and for these EN-
cient men were found.
The Congress created but three ad-
ministrative departments at the out
set: the Department of State. the De-

also for the appointment of an Attor-

The School AS a
Social Centre.

The School Fair, which was held
1t Bellview Saturday, is q splendid
evidence of what school may stand
for in community. The school house
as centre Of community interest is
filing its rightful place, and in the
rural districts this is especially true
Those who live apart from the ac-
tivities Of q city may consider their
lives bound and narrow, but this need
not be true Of life In the country.
For those who win take It, today
there is wonderful opportunity in the
rural neighborhood. For no longer
is the farmer and his family or the
man who prefers to make his 'home
in the Wilderness" for the very love
Of that wilderness, forced to shut his
ears to the pleasant cali Of the busy
world.
The city is not far today from the
farthest farmyard. There are schools
and more schools each year; there
is the rural delivery, that brings thu
world to the very threshold, through
newspapers and other current litera
sure. There are the agriculture
specialists who travel for the federal
state, county or township, to brini
new methods and inspiration to worl
out the scientific data that any farm
er may have for the asking. Their
are the canning clubs and corn clubs
for the boys and girls, with the visit
Of county and state agents, and Their
is the school. For the school Is tn
centre and circumference, the begin
ming and the end, after all, Of com
munity interest. Or If It Is not, some
thing is wrong with the school Q
the community.
No longer does the Little Re
School House at the crossroads serv
only to teach the athree Rs"-it
the definite place for all neighborhoo
meeting, the focus for young and oil
and its development is just begun.
The possibilities for good in con
munity where the school represent
what the Bellview school represent
to that neighborhood, can hardly
estimated. And The Journal cor
graduates both the school and Il
community.
