QUINCY HAS MODERN,
SANITARY BOTTLING WORKS

The Quincy Coca-Cola Bottling Co.,
which is operated under the capable
management of R. l. Stephens, is per-
haps the most modern and sanitary
bottling works in the state of Florida.
Nothing has been left undone to
make this plant sanitary in every
sense of the word, and it is an insti-
tuition in which Quincy should take
pride.
Domiciled in a handsome brick
building on the A. B. & A. railroad,
the building is as clean as a new
pin from the front to the back.
Before using the bottles are pass
ed through strong solution of
caustic soda and as they pass around
on the carrier the solution is shot up
into the bottle many times. From
this solution they pass into fresh hot
water and are given another thorough

SPECIAL 70 THE JOURNAL

Panama City (West) Florida, June
29.-Giving not only immediate sup
port, but guaranteeing through lead
ing citizens and land owners of this
section permanent support for the
West Florida Chamber of Commerce,
this city is on record as one of the
leading communities in West Florida
for solidifying the business interests
into a working machine for the bet
torment of all West Florida. While
]. NJ. Sapp, secretary Of the local
Board Of Trade, has received several
circular letters from other organiza-
ton of Florida asking the coopera-
ton of the Panama City Board Of
Trade, the members and officers Of
the Board of Trade here have decided
that their interests can best be serv-
ed by working directly with the
West Florida body.

POST OFFICE HAS
MADE CHANGES
NEW MOTOR ROUTE TO START.
MAIL DELIVERY UP THE
SOUND DAILY INSTEAD OF
TRI-WEEKLY, AS HERETOFORE

The new motor route win begin
operating tomorrow, In place of the
old routes one and two, as state
ment from Postmaster Hancock to
the effect that all is ready for the
change insures against delay this
time. w. R. Wright, Jr., will have
charge of the new route, and it will
be a great convenience to those aft
fected by It.
Another change contemplated by
the department to take effect tomor-
row is the mail delivery to up sound
points daily instead of three times
week as heretofore.
Both changes were made with a
view to increasing the efficiency of
the department in handling mail, and
in placing it in the hands Of the pub
lie as soon as possible.
The success of the motor delivery,
officials said, depended largely on
road conditions, and as it is mainly
an experiment, the department will
have ample opportunity to test the
plan.
The mail will be carried by the
'Helmar" instead of the "Ruth," as
heretofore.

A wolf belonging to w. F. Banks,
which he has been keeping penned at
the old stable, broke away some time

OLD SPANISH RAIL.
Panama City (West) Florida, June
29.-Advocating highways 100 feet
in width along all such national
routes as the Old Spanish Trail, the
Dixie and other highways entering
Florida, Mrs. H. Jennings, of Jack
sonville, president of the State Fed
Grafton of Women's Clubs, asked Bay
county women to become leaders in
advocating this public enterprise.
Mrs. Jennings was informed that the
women of Bay county were taking the
lead in the state in public welfare and
that Panama City, st. Andrews and
Lynn Haven clubs were the first in
Florida to be definitely identified with
commercial organization.
"We are placing the names of our
members on the honor rolls of the
West Florida Chamber of Commerce,
we propose to unite with the or
ganization as regular members and
we expect to have women directors
for that organization named in each
of the countless" Mrs. Jennings was
told by the enthusiasts of Bay county.
1t has been proposed that in their
work for and with the West Florida
Chamber of Commerce that woman
/ director be named in each county to
look. after such matters of public
progress as may be Of direct interest
to the women of the counties. This
matter has been favorably considered
by ]. H. Drummond, Of st. Andrews,
director for Bay county, and viii be
brought up for consideration at the
meetoing of the board of directors at
Bombay July 8. It is thought that it
viii be favorably considered.
A plan also is to be proposed at
that meeting whereby the. women
may take regular memberships in the
Chamber of Commerce, receiving a
refund of half the dues to be used for
local work in their own Communities

Lusitania Case is Far From Be
ing Settled After Long
Argument.

United Press Leased Wire Service J
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-The com
ing week is fraught with grave pos
sibilities in the German-American con-
troversy over the sinking Of the Lus1-
tania, according to direct intimatlon
from the state department.
AS defined by an official who has
been one of the presidents chief ad-
visers in all EXCHANGES between the
United States and Germany, the situa-
ton was tonight described as serious.
grave, but not critical.
The gravity of the situation hinges,
it is said, on whether the German for
eign office can be made to realize the
United States means business and has
all along meant business in demanding
German acquiescence in all points or
law and humanity involved In the SUD-
marine attacks.
Inability to force realization OF this
upon German officialdom. high officials
believe is the crIx Of the whole sit
uation. It was admitted the Imperial
government had shown tendency to
st11bborness in refusing to accede in
full to Americas demands after near
lv a. year Of exchanges Of formal
notes and informal conversations.

The German war office this after.
noon announced the capture OF the
village OF Frise, seventy-fve miles

of the river Somme. At the same time
Berlin announced the capture Of near
ly mile of French trenches, north
east of Neuville, and east Of Souchez
and the conquest OF 1000 yards Of
French positions around Frise.
Paris dispatches tonight said the
loss OF F'rise Is admitted at the French
war ONCE. Paris reported the teutons
rushed the French positions on the
Somme on six mile front after a
terrific bombardment that wrecked
many advanced French positions
Early dispatches from Paris tonight
did not confirm the German claim OF
tcapture Of 1900 yards of French
Trenches in the drive toward Souchez.
Paris reported that the French counter
attacked successfully west OF Hill
No. l4O, southeast Of Givenchy, and
reconquered portion of trench TAX
en- by the Germans yesterday. Berlin
admitted the French occupied mine
crater near Neuville, but announced
| the repulse of all other French counter
attacks in this region.
| The official statement issued BY the
French war office tonight. like the
statement issued at Paris this after
noon, made no mention of the German
claim of important gains on the Neu-
vile sector.
..West of Hill No. 14O (southeast OF
Givenchy), we continued to reoccpy
