renee.

In many parts of the city yester-
day, and especially in the afternoon,
the white fly pest appeared in
swarms, and the air was thick with
the myriads which came from china
trees and from shrubbery generally
The insects were noticeable all the
more thickly in the afternoon, and
persons who recalled the incident, re-
membered how very thick these in
sects were about nine years ago when
one of the worst storms the city had
experienced in years wrought so much
damage in city and harbor.
They also recollected that, nine
years ago to the day, was the time
when this stormy disturbance made
its appearance and ragged in Pensa,
cola and vicinity, taking a total toll
in the city Of five lives.
To make the comparison all the
more prominent on the imagination
the weather bureau has in observa,
ton another disturbance in the vi
entity of the Yucatan channel, whence
the nine-year- ago storm started.

is CRY HUNDREDS
of CHILDREN TODAY
PRACTICALLY ALL CITY AND
MOST OF COUNTY SCHOOLS
ARE TO BE OPENED AT THE
USUAL HOUR.

Hundreds of children of all ages
and classes will start busy school
year today. This applies to both city
and county, although it was stated by
school officials, possibly a few of the
rural schools will not be opened on
time due to the unconpleted state of
buildings which are now in course of
erection. The time lost, however, will
be made up.
Schools will be convened and or
ganized today. This will perhaps con-
sumo half a day. Children will be
furnished at their respective grades
this morning with a list of the books
and school articles generally which
tnev will need, and by tomorrow, II
is expected, classes will be tentative
ly organized, and the schools will
start in the real serious business of
the new session.
The grammar grades will be taught
for at least three months in the Arm
strong building, on North Palafox
street. This is the structure origi-
nally used by the Classical school.
1t was the intention of the board of
public instruction to house these
grades in the court house annex, it
was asserted, but when it was dis
covered that it would require much
work to put this county building in
at condition for the reception of pu-
pills, that idea was abandoned, and a
price of 500 for the rent of the Clas-
steal building for three months was
authorized by the board. This offer
was accepted, and it is thought the
new building, now in course of erec-
ton, will be ready within that period
to care for the grades thus housed
in the North Palafox street building
| BY noon today, it is expected, hun
dreds of boys and girls will crowd the
supply stores on Palafox street fol
the purchase of books. pencils, sta.
tionery. etc., and busy times are an.
ticpated at all the book stores.

TO USE PRECAUTI0N
STORM OVER CARIBBEAN SEA is
BEasG WATCHER BIZ WEATHER
BUREAU. WHICH HAS ISSUED
USUAL WARNING.

Shipping interests at Pensacola
and generally over the gulf coast
are warned over proceeding south
west for any distance, especially in
waters of the Yucatan channel and
the western Cuban waters. The in
dications are the disturbance is Of
more force than at present conten-
plated, and for that reason all local
shipping should exercise caut;an.
One matter of concern in local
shipping circles is the late departure
of the tug Sea King with loaded
barge in tow. While her destination
is at present out of the path Of the
disturbance, there was no way Of
telling, of course, just what would
happen ii the stormy elements con-
tinued to move northwest as the
warning indicated.
The weather bureau received q
warning message last night, which
was in the shape Of an advisory note

lat POINT OF REBELLION
Jimmy Had Reached the Stage Of Boy
hood When Kissing Became
Rather Tiresome.

Little Jimmy had reached the con-
clusion that everybody in the world
had kissed him or wanted to badly.
He could not help being a boy that
all the ladies wanted to pet and be-
stow their kisses upon. In fact. jim
my longed for the day when he would
have a say so in the matter of being
kissed. One day a famous woman
came to call upon his mother. Jimmy
CHANGED to enter the parlor and was
directed by his mother to come up
and see the noted Mrs. So and SO.
Jimmy knew what was coming, but
he could not prevent the occurrence.
The visitor took him by the hand and
gently gathered him up into her lap,
and as she let him down to the floor
again she graciously bestowed a kiss
upon his pouting lips. Jimmy jumped
away from her and began to rub his
lips in a vicious manner.
What, you are not rubbing my kiss
off, my little man." questioned the
woman. Jimmy was puzzled for a
few moments, then replied:
mo, ma am, I'm just rubbing it in,
and then vanished through the door.

PREVENT WASTE OF MANURE
Little Thought Necessary to Deter
mine Value OF Dairy Herd From
FertiIizlng Standpoint.

In experiments conducted at the
Louisiana station to determine the
amount of manure and urine produced
by the dairy herd of 20 cows in one
year, it was found to be It's tons of
manure and 70 tons of urine. The av-
erage amount of manure produced by
one COW in year was 1880 pounds. a
little less than nine tons, and the aver
age amount Of urine produced by one
COW in a year was 6,s35 pounds, or .
little less than three and half tons.
It takes little thought to see the value
of q cow from the fertilizing stand
point, or to see the profit in preventing
unnecessary waste of manure.

II is rather startling to learn that

in action explodes ten to twelve bales
of cotton every minute.
Approximately a pound of raw cot

accounts for about 100000 bales o.

WHAT TO DO FOR
YOUR ITCHING SKIN

Eczema, ringworm and other Itch
ing, burning skin eruptions are SO
easily made worse by improper treat
ment that one has to be very careful.
There is one method, however, that
you need not hesitate to use, even on
a baby's tender skin-that Is the
resinol treatment. Resinol is the pre-
scription Of a Baltimore doctor, put
up in the form of resinol ointment
and resinol soap. This proved SO re-
markedly successful that thousands Of
other physicians have been prescrib-
ing it constantly for 20 years.
Resinol stops itching instantly, and
almost always heals the eruption
quickly and at little cost. Resinol oint-
ment and resinol soap can be bought
at any druggists and are not at all
expensive. Great for sunburn.-Adv.
