PARTY FOR
DOLL AND TOY FUND

Hundreds Of children attended the
Halloween party, given last night
for the Doll and Toy Fund.
Under weired yellow lights and the
grimming faces of many pumpkin
colored Jack G, Lanterns which shed
a ghostly brliliancy hobgoblins and
witches gathered last night at the
Armory hall to tell the fate of boys
and girls, and men and maidens, who
wished to test fate and fortune.
On one side of the big hall
stretche the fortune telling booths,
gay without but within holding dark
secrets that only soothsayers know.
Grey moss and plumes of golden rod
were used as an effective decoration
between the booths, and the white
tents with broad yellow banding and
other booths of gay colored fabrics
gave a bizarre aspect to the scene.
The lights of the chandeliers
shone through orange-colored shades
and from each a Jack-O'-Lantern
hung, while hundreds of black cats
and witches peeped out from every
vantage point.
Strings of red-cheeked apples and
red and yellow sugar plums created
great fun, and it was quite an art to
bob" for them but many were adept
enough to catch both apples and
candy from the swinging lines.
Half a dozen big tubs furnished
much fun, and 'bobhing" for apples
proved very popular.
But, perhaps after all, the cen
trail attraction was the old witch,
whose tent was pitched at the west
ern end of the hall. On either side
small pine trees grew, a black cat
stood guard, as black cats always do
when witches lurk about, and over the
campfire hung the witches couldron,
with it's red light and sinister flame.
The old witch told strange fortunes
here and in the booths, too, there

THE CITY HALL BRISK
FOR PAST FEW DAYS
MEN ENGAGED IN ALL KINDS OF
BUSINESS CROWDED INTO
CITY BUILDING TO GET GER
TIFICATE.

Men engaged in all lines of bust
ness were numerous and in much evil
dence in the city building yesterday,
having made the trip there to pay
their license before the hour for clos
ing business today and thus escape
the added penalty which is liable in
case persons are unlicensed when the
inspector comes around after the first
day Of next month. Thousands of
dollars were passed over the counter
in the city treasurer's Office during
the day, the city clerk of course be-
ing the one who takes that title under
the new arrangement.
An average Of about 1000 licenses
are issued, during the year and Mayor
Greenhut said yesterday afternoon
that this years receipts will be very
little under that Of former years,
when business in all departments of
the city of Pensacola was brisk.
There were more than a dozen sa-
looms reported unpaid last evening
when the Office of the clerk closed,
which is taken to mean that the re-
ceipts over the counter today will be
in the rd-brealxing class. Saloons
are charged one Thousand dollars each,
for the privilege of doing business in
the city, and that sum is equalled
when this line of business is permit
ted by the county and state. In all
it costs a saloon man two thousand
dollars to do business now in the city
of Pensacola.
Practically all the insurance COM
panies have paid licenses, and yester-
day afternoon some permits were
mailed to head Offices out Of the city,
one going to Jacksonville, and others
going outside the state. Some Of the
general agencies have been paying
through their local representatives,
and when ten to fifteen companies
have representation in the one local
agency, the check which the local Of
fee hands across the counter to the
clerk swells appreciably the receipts
for that particular day.
Licenses may be paid without the
added penalty until 5 o'clock this aft
ernoon, and the city hall will close at
that hour. Monday morning, if an
offer is made to pay up, it may result
in fifty per cent penalty being add
ed to the usual fee.

FLORIDA WOMAN
DESCRIBES GREAT
NEW YORK PARADE
MEMBER OF STATE PRESS COM

The following interesting account
OF the suffrage parade in New York
city, sent to The Journal by a specta-

Der of the press committee of the
Florida Equal Suffrage Association,
will be read with interest not only by
local sufragists, but throughout the
state, where Miss Anderson is we'll
known:
Saturday afternoon, October %,
witnessed the worlds greatest pa
rade, for $4,000 suffragists came out
of great houses and up from kitchens
to show men that they want the vote.
Social and philanthropic leaders,
saleswomen, actresses, sweatshop
workers, teachers, old women, and
high school girls against a biting
wind all marched along, serious and
intent because they were marching
for purpose. Never again can a
sentiment human being say that the
women of New York do not want
the ballot. History does not record
any cause LOT WHICH 50 many men
have marched in peaceful ranks to
testify their faith. 1t has been esti-
mated that between 100000 and l.
100000 men and women stood on
both sides of the avenue to witness
the spectacle, and generally speaking
it is not too much to say that those
numbers did not stand shivering until
long after the dinner hour, without
at least a modicum of thinking. Their
capacity for prejudice, for incompre-
hension and ridicule must have been
considerably lowered, as thousands OF
the most noted and conscious citizens
of greater New York swept by to the
triumphant crash of many hands
After this overpowering demonstra-
ton suffrage will be forever extract

the columns of thread-bare funny col

Well, it may be easily frightened

AS a rule the part that really needs
renovating most is the lower wall,
where little fingers have unconscious.
ly left smeary marks.
Many good washable papers are on
sale now at the wall paper stores
and departments. These may be
pasted on the lower side walls to a
depth of three feet only, and topped
off with borders that are sold for the
purpose. These borders come in
amusing picture stripes, in an end
less variety of subjects, and in widths
varying from two to eighteen inches.
The most expensive have different
pictures clear around the room, and
the cheaper ones repeat the same
pictures at intervals.
Every possible subject has been
thought of to appeal to the childish
imagine ton or tickle the fresh little
juvenile sense OF humor. There are
borders of the seasons Noah's ark
borders of toys, of ships at sea, OF
Mother Goose pictures, of Dutch
scenes and children and animals full
of action, in silhoutte.
Any of these may be pasted around
the room on level with the childs
eyes, and the wall beneath them may
be freshly calcimined or covered with
glazed paper.
Blackboard paint is sometimes used
below borders. The effort of the
children to copy the pictures on these
blackboards is often the first stel
toward good manual training.
Sometimes narrow wooden mold
ings, or narrow strips of passepart
out paper, are used to divide off the
newly finished lower walls into pane

passing the bands across the picture
border.
