him from thinking that he is the very

ENJOYABLE FEATURE
SEVERAL SHORT ADDRESSES
DELIVERED AND DANCING
CONCLUDED EVENINGS EN-
TERTAINMENT.

A banquet was rendered the visit
ing bankers in the city last night at
the San Carlos Hotel. The main din
ing room of the hotel was used and
was beautifully decorated for the oc-
casion. Large wreaths of flowers
were hung about the room and fes-
toons Of brightly colored ribbons tied
with garlands of roses carried out
the general decorative scheme. The
lights we're shaded in soft color tones
Of gold and purple, and music was
furnished by the San Carlos orches-
ira.
James Keith, Jr., president of the
Alabama Bankers association, acted
as POSTMASTER.
Colonel w. G. Davis, commander of
Fort Barraneas, made an excellent
address on preparedness, and dig
cussed the question in the light of
history. He stated that in numerical
strength our army is proportionaliy
stronger than any in the world. The
address of Colonel Davis will appear
in full Sunday morning.
After Colonel Davis, r. W.. Good
hart, president of the National Bank
OF Commerce, was called upon, and
responded IN warm welcome to the
bankers, and discussed the convention
IN lighter vein, which proved most
acceptable and pleasing to the guests.
He took occasion to welcome the
guests and in few well chogsn words
offered them the hospitality for which
the Deep Water City is SO Justly
famed. Welcoming them today. ha
did not forget tomorrow, and extend
ed them an invitation to make PEN
sacola their convention city again
next year.
DR.. w. z. Hines, state entomologist
of the University Of Alabama. was
then called upon, and responded in a
short talk On the work of eradication
of the boil weeviI, and the great good
resulting in the campaign for crop
diversifcation. He concluded his re-
marks with tribute to the bankers
OF Alabama, thanking them for their
aid IN the work without which It
would have been impossible.
Following DR.. Hines was general
discussion Of the financial condition
IN New York by w. O. Jones, vice
president of the National Park bank
of that city. He touched briefly on
the federal reserve system.
At this point Mclean Tilton, secre-
tary- treasurer Of the association
was called upon for toast, he re-
sponded briefly and most appropri-
ately.
After the banquet the party danced
on the mezzinine floor until LATE IS

COOPERATIVE Movement Among
Cattle Raisers Is Most important

It is believed that many from West Flor
ida will make the trip to Kentucky and In
diana, which will leave this section about
the middle of July The trip is primarily
for educational purposes, to give West
Florida cattlemen an idea of the breeds of
cattle which will bring the best results.
Cattle raising, with West Florida free of
the cattle tick, promises to make this sec
ton prosperous within the next few wears.
as the counties are well organized to fight
the tick
Along this line, West Florida catt1emen
may be interested in a cooperative move
ment among farmers which is gradually
growing along the simpler lines and with
good results. Farmers are slowly learning
to act together in limited way and thus
increase their profits, for the most impor-
tant problems of the future will undoubt-
edly have to be solved through cooperative
effort
In recent years cooperative livestock
shipping associations have proved quite
successful, as may be Judged from the fact
that the first shipping association was or
ganized in 1908 and today there are 500
such associations in existence, two-hfths
of which are located in Minnesota where
the movement originated This statement
IS based upon the findings of the United
States department of agriculture, which has
recently concluded an investigation of that
branch of the cooperative movement among
farmers. These shipping associations per-
form an important service in sections where
few farmers can ship cattle in carloads in
dividually.
A shipping association is easily formed
since no money is required to handle the
business. All the farmers in a given com
munity have to do is to get together and
agree upon method of handling their cat
tie in carload lots and thus reduce the cost
OF marketing to minimum. 1t is we'll to
adopt simple constitution and bylaws
and sometimes it is advisable to incorporate
the organization. Officers must then be
elected and manager to take charge of the
shipping appointed.

Pensacola Extends Cordial Welcome
To Alabama Bankers Association

Pensacola's extends to the members OF
the Alabama Bankers Association, who
are guests in the city today, the heartiest
of welcomes. While the object of the con-
vention is solely for business reasons, there
will be hours Of leisure that may be spent
in recreation, and The Journal believes
that in no other city could there be found
diversions of just the same character that
may be found here.
The Journal may be pardoned for calling
the attention of the visitors to the city to
the fact that they are our guests at time
when we have, as perhaps never before, at
tracted the public attention, and that the
reasons for this fact are such as to justify
Pensacola in the assumption that he public
gaze is focused upon this city because it IS
becoming one of the South's most impor-
tant commercial centres.
In the hours of leisure enjoyed by the
bankers, there is much of interest to see
The harbor, admitted by naval experts to
be the deepest and best on the Gulf coast,
is also one Of the most beautiful in the
world
The aviation station is unique in that it
i the only naval flying school in the Unit
ed States, and cannot be surpassed in its
interest to those who are alive to the i'm
portance of aerial progress.
The great guns ia Fort Pickens, the
army post at Barrancas, are points of more
than usual interest, and the beauty of the
trip, either by water or automobile, to
these points, cannot be surpassed.
Pensacola is proud of its harbor, proud
of its commercial Importance, proud of its
beautiful environs and proud of the privi-
lege of entertaining at this time men who
are taking a foremost place in the financial
affairs of the South
The Journal hopes that the sessions will
not be such as to preclude many hours of
pleasure, and in extending greeting to the
visiting bankers, feels sure that it voices
the heartfelt welcome of every citizen.

ma Minstrel Maids, a local talent
troupe of forty young women Of this
city, last night put on their famous

Made New Friends

Hon. ]. H. Smithwick of Pensacola,
candidate for congress from the 3rd
Congressional District, motored down
to Crawfordville and other points in
Wakulla county Friday last. He came
for the purpose of meeting the peo-
pie and to tell them that he was a
candidate for that position.
Mr.. Smithwick is good talzer
and made many new friends in Wa
kulla county, who from indications
will give him a handsome vote. This
is the first time he has ever offered
for office-but it seems that he is
the best of the four candidates when
it comes to telling the people who
he is and what he stands for.
Mr.. Smithwick has many friends
in Wakulla county and on this visit
made many new ones. His friends
in this county predict that he will
carry it by a large majority.
In May he viii again visit this
county and will talk to the people
for their needs in congress. A vote
for Smithwick is vote for the peo-
pies interest in the 3rd Congress
ional District of Florida. Lets give
him handsome majority.-W akulla

Women n School Boards

Women n School Boards
Pensacola is wrestling with the
difficulties accompanying an effort on
the part Of its people to have two
ladies become members of the school
board.
There seems no doubt as to the
capability of the ladies suggested
for the positions, and the feeling
that women should be connected with
the school work as members of the
board seems to be practically unani-
nous, but unfortunately, to be a can
dldate one must be a qualified voter,
duly registered in the party Of ones
choice and must have paid the usual
poll taxes.
None of these things can be done
by the Pensacola ladies, for the rea-
son that they cannot, under the pres
ent laws, become qualified voters, in
any party.
To become candidates, they would
have to run on an independent ticket
and, if they should decide to do this,
no member of any political party may
vote for them, since the primary law
binds man to vote only for mem
bers of his own party.
The outcome of the situation at
Pensacola viii be watched with in
terest all over the state, as there is
a constant and increasing demand
that women should have representa-
ton on school boards.
At the present time, the women of
many communities are rendering eff
ficient assistance in projecting school
