PFNsAcoLA,s SMALL DAMAGE.

AS the reports come in, Pensacola's
storm damage steadily diminishes.
The tug Ce1estine, reported total
wreck. has bsen pulled off the beach and
thoated, practically unhurt.
The smack Osceola, sunk at her moorings
land first thought to represent loss OF
thousands, is damaged only to the extent
rof $500.
The Falk Fish Company, reported wiped
hout with its entire feet destroyed, suffered
tonly to the extent of $500.
And so on-the list could be made inter
minab1e; but enough is known to prove
that The Journals estimate, placing Pen
sacola's loss at $500, 900, which the ca1am-
lity bowler thought too low, must now be
reduced by almost one-half.
When we remember how great Mobiles
shipping loss was, we can, indeed, be
thankful for our matchless harbor in which
the little damage sustained was confined to
small boats. When we read how the rain
storm spread devastation and death in the
interior of Alabama and Georgia, obliter-
ating crops, the people of this region must
regard our experience as mere incident.
Pensacola's damage was on the water
front, and much of that was unnecessary
that is to say, it was damage that might
have been avoided Knowing that tides
had risen eight and half feet, it was mad
ness for people to build houses so close to
the water that fve-foot rise was able to
undermine the foundations and topple
houses over. Boats at anchor rode the
hurricane safely; only boats at piers, or
boats insecurity fastened suffered If the
wharves had been built the height which
twas known to be necessary, their planking
would not have been lifted off and piled on
THE Shore like jackstraws. And so on, all
down the line.
Like pretty nearly every misfortune in
THE world, the storm was blessing. We
suffered, but we are better off today, be-
kcause some unsafe structures were demol-
Eshed, and because we know what safe
port Pensacola is, having passed through
record-breaking hurricane with so little
Aoss.

THE SCRATCH PAD
By THOMAS EWING DABNEY.

Everybody here has taken the
storm very cheerfully. But it remain
ed for Billy Powell to take it poeti-
cally. Billy is only eleven years old,
and his mothers cottage on the sea
was one of the houses that the rising
tide undermined and toppled over into
the mud. Billy, constituting him
self the poet laureate of the beach,
wrote:
I'D rather be in Muscogee,
Happy as bee,
Than to be in Pensacola
Wiped out by the sea-"
We don't blame Billy in the least.
Nor for the sentiment expressed IN
the following quantrain:
I'D rather be in Muscogee,
Lonesome as a hog,
Than to be in Pensacola,
Treated like a dog"
Of course, it all depends on what
kind of treatment the dog gets, AS
we recall the luxury of massage yes
terday, we are inclined to believe that
dog must enjoys it whole lot when
you rub his head, or scratch his ears.
He gets as much bliss out of it as a
man who, after carrying a beard like
spike tooth harrow down Palafox
street, finally sinks into the BARRIERS
chair, under the gentle caress of the
electric fan, and falls off in a dreamy
ecstacy, hlled by the song of the
razor.
It won't be long now before some
congressman, learning that the navy
yard suffered a certain amount of
damage in a record breaking storm,
rises to remark that this is very
unsafe place, True, true, and the
ocean is a dangerous place for ships
at times; but we doubt very seriously
that the government will consider any
plan to move the navy yard to Pixies
Peak.
Not the least of the horrors Of the
storm was that the Greek peanut
merchant on the corner was driven in
doors and we were unable to get cur
nocturnal supply of COOLERS.
Now that Germany is able to bring
war supplies from the United States
via submarine, the hyphens won't talk
so much about the inhumanity Of this
country in selling munitions to bel
ligerents, thereby prolonging the war
We can get along very we'll with
a shortage in skirts, but if railroad
connection hadn't been restored yes
terday and the threatened shortage il
beer had developed, there is no telling
what might have happened.

BUILD sILos AND RAISE CATTLE

Late reports from the country show that
the storm damage to early planted corn is
merely nominal, and that a great per
centage of the late planted corn could be
saved as si1age. The farmers, however,
are not equipped to save it in this way.
They have neither the silos nor the cattle.
Thus is illustrated West F1orida's great
need of cattle. In dairy and stock farming,
provision is made to handle practically the
entire acreage, except that which is de
devoted to pasture, through the silo
Silos give the cheapest the best, the
easiest-to-handle roughage, They also save
crops, which are damaged by storm
drought, or rain.

BACK YARDS AND PUBLIC HEALTH

What about your back yard? It's condi-
ftion generally is good index to the physi-
bcal condition of the owner If it is clean
and in sanitary condition, the house
Eholder likely gives some attention to the
rules of personal hygiene, and, therefore, is
most likely in good health.
Check up on your back yard now
Is it as clean and we'll kept as you can
make it, or is it Uttered with trash, cans,
ldndling, and other rubbish?
Is the garbage and waste properly COW
cred and free from flies?
Is the stable and clubhouse ly-beeding
center for the neighborhood?
You have work ahead of you for your
health's sake and for the sake of decencv
if any of these conditions exist.
1t is a privilege to have back ward. even
small one. There are thousands of
jewellers in cities where land is sold by the
square foot, who yearns for little space
to call their own. Those who are so fortu-
nate as to have back yards should care for
them and make the best use of them.
II there are children in the family the
back yard should be their play ground A
doll house, turning pole, swing or a tent
will provide almost unlimited entertain
ment and help to keep children off the
streets.

OUR LATIN-AMERIcAN POLICY.

OJR LAI1N-AMEK1OAN PO1lOIs
However the warlike may deplore peace
between the United States and Mexico,
they must at least acknowledge that Presi-
dent Wilson's course is in keeping with the
ideals of Americanism, which have never
countenanced an attack on a weaker
country.
The United States has always been
ready to fight stronger nation-witness
the war of 1912; witness our victory over
the Barbary pirates when we dared what
the greatest nations of Europe were afraid
to venture; witness the war with Spain, a
country that was thought to outclass us
witness the ultimatum to England in the
Venezuela business
Down in Mexico President Wilson faced
an aggravating problem. Americans had
suffered nameless indignities; the flag had
been fouted; our property, public and
private, seized our soldiers attacked The
casus belli was overwhelming. But Mexico
is an inferior foe; her people, hard working,
downtrodden, hungry, had been inhamed
by INSCRIPTIONS politicians against their
neighbors, who were trying to help them.
Must I slaughter these innocent and
unfortunate peop1e?" President Wilson
''or is Our friendship great-hearted enough
to endure few hysterical blows in order
to persuade Mexico of our true intentions
and thereby accomplish the greater good
which otherwise would be lostp
That he embraced the latter alternative
we may we'll be thankful.
In addition to keeping us out of war this
course has been the greatest object lesson
in history, proving the purity of Our inten-
tons towards Latin-America.
AS the United States is the most powerful
government on this hemisphere, it is only
logical that the weaker Latin-Americar
countries should took with distrust upon
our designs. : With all Europe land
grabbing, what reason is there to believe
the United States is any different? Did moi
the Monroe doctrine warn other nations of
merely because we wanted Latin-Americs
for ourselves? And so the half-baked aoi
tator used to hire hall every now and ther
and bally-hoo about the Colossus of the
! North, and his illiterate audience, full o
| pulque, and liking a hullabaloo generally
would shout: Death to the Gringo p AnC
SO anti-Americanisn waxed strong in TIL
land
The United States, however, has con
WINGED Latin-America that it doesn'
nurture felonious designs. For many year
to come there will, of course, be antagonist
to this country, but President Wilson, b.
his patience, kindness and far sightedness
has won over the responsible officials o
our neighbor states. Even Carranza mus
understand now, for at last he seems to b
making heroic efforts to do the only thin
we were at all interested in, namely: Put
ting an end to bandit incursions int
American territory.
The better feeling between the Unite,
States and Latin-America will mean NOR
every day. Already there are not enoug
ships to carry the trade between North an
South America; and an economic and dir
uomatic alliance, founded on mutual hell
fulnesS, between our two great continent
will make this quarter of the world absc
lutely impregnable.
