STATE BOARD OF HEALTH
THANKS THE JOURNAL

Editor Pensacola Journal.
The State Board Of Health of Flor
ida values always the assistance and
cooperation which the press of the
state manifests towards health meas
ures and those activities which seek
to enhance and upbuild the health of
the citizenship of Florida. 1t is there
fore a fitting opportunity at this
time for the board to express to The
Journal its appreciation of the edi-
torial in the morning issue of the 9Th
instant, and to express thanks for
the very many attentions which The
Journal has always given to the State
Board of Health in its work.
Without the cooperation of the
press of the state the State Board
of Health and the State Health Off
Ger has always felt that it's efforts
in behalf of the people would have
been exceedingly difficult, and it is a
very rare exception that any unfavor-
able criticism of the methods of the
board have ever been made by those
who seek to direct public opinion in
Florida.
Very truly yours,
JOSEPH Y. PORTER,
State Health Officer.

Does Travel Broaden
the Mind?

Every year hundreds of people
leave home and go out to see the
world. Not to travel these days is
to argue oneself either poor or un-
cultured. A run up, or down, or over
to New York is no longer considered
a remarkable proceeding, no matter
where your home may be. A trip to
Canada Ia scarcely to be commented
upon though the European tour is
NOT popular just now.
But out Of the hundreds of persons
VINO every year leave their abiding
places TO traverse other centres and
circles Of interest, there are hundreds,
also, who come back without seeming
TO have gained any real benefit or any
ideas from the journeying.
Do you know anyone who went
away last summer who can really tell
You anything of what they saw or
what they did? That is, anything of
interest. They can retail idle gossip
Of hotel piazzas; or can give you
some new rules in bridge, perhaps;
but have they gained anything they
might not have had if they had re-
manned at home?
When your friends return from an
outing do they seem really to have
gained stimulus from the pictures
and sculpture, the historic places Wis
tied, or the marvellous scenery? Or
do they regale you with stories of the
styles and the gossip of noted hos
telries.
We talk much of the culture of
travel, but the culture does not seem
particularly noticeable.

negotiate, the Creeks had relied upon
the treaties and Bteadfastly refused to
sell their lands or suffer themselves to
be driven out of the State; and Mr..
Adams had sought BY every means in
his power to protect them. But Cons

extorting from the unwilling chiefs of the

to provide for them

The Man and
- -ass- ~
the Job.

William B. Wilson, secretary of
labor, declares that the governments
new employment bureau is working
satisfactorily. Today there are, in
round numbers, 100000 persons
ten years of age and over engaged IN
ga1nful occupations in the United
States. The wage Garner is in four
cases out of five, man; statistics
show that about every fifth individual
is woman.
The secretary Of labor declares, in
recent signed article: "I do not
believe that the machinery we are
endeavoring to build up will COM
pletely solve the problem of unem-
ployment. But it win reduce that
problem and reduce the number of
unemployed to the minimum, and
when this has been done, when we
have found all the places that are to
be found, and we have filed these
places, then we can proceed to con-
sideration of the causes of the unem-
ployment of those who could not be
provided with gainful occupation"
Even though as yet imperfect,
there is no question as to the value of
the governments big employment
bureau.
Mr.. Wilson says that publicity is
vitality necessary in order to make
the aims of the national bureau sue
cessful.
A supply of application blanks for
use of either an employer reporting
a vacancy or an Individual making
application for work is deposited at
every postofice in the United States.
The application blanks must be filed
out and returned to the postmaster.
The blank will then find its way to
the employment bureau. The appli-
can't will be notified whenever work
of the desired kind is available.
The service Is free, and it is a prac-
teal step in the solving of a problem
which is assuming magnitude. The
system, SO far devised, is far from
perfect But it is at least bringing
together to some extent the manless
job and the jobless man.
In six months the department re-
ceived nearly $4,000 applications for
work, and out of this number 1900
jobs were filed. This is not as effec-
tive as it might be, but it must be
remembered that the bureau is as yet
in its infancy. It is at least begin
ming of movement, which may as
sumo proportions of enormous value
to the country.

FUNDS ARE NEEDED
To MEET EXPENSES
OF THE CARNIVAL
ASSOCIATION HOLDS MEETING
AND HEARS REPORT FROM
THE COMMITTEES ENDEAVOR-
ING TO RAISE FUNDS.

The need of funds to meet the ex-
penses of the Mardi Gras Carnival
was emphasized yesterday afternoon
when the various committees which
had been at work in different sections
of the city reported to the Carnival
Association. The latter is now meet
Ing twice each week in order to
handle all matters arising without de-
lay.
The city has been divided into dis
tricts and members assigned to each
district to raise funds by securing do
nations. Some of these committees
reported that firms and individuals
who would be directly benefited by
the crowds coming to the city for the
big celebration had refused to donate,
while others had given only email
sums and that much money is neces
sary.
The association has economical in
every way possible, but to put on four
parades, two at night and two in the
day time requires considerable go ney.
The members of the association have
not only given their time to this work,
but also have endeavored to raise
funds by various entertainments and
with the Phunmakers' aid have Sc
cured nearly all of the money thus far
used.
Considerable money has been neces-
sary to properly advertise the carni-
val outside the city, for it is realized
that the celebration is given primarily
for the purpose of bringing visitors to
the city and advertising has been a
necessity.
Wire Florida Delegation.
The secretary was authorized to
wire Senators Fletcher and Bryan and
C. E. Dobson in Washington and also
to call on Congressman Wilson, who
is in the city and ask their aid in
keeping at Pensacola all of the de-
stroyers, submarines and flying ma
chimes for Mardi Gras. 1t was re-
ported at the meeting that some of
the destroyers had been ordered to
New Orleans and others were expect
iig to go to Mobile on these dates.
