THE OLD SOLDIERS!

Our ranks are growing thinner. every
year,
And death Is still winner. every year.
Yet we still must stick together
Like the toughest sort of leather
And in any kind of weather. every year.
Dur comrades have departed. every year.
And leave us broken hearted. every year.
But their spirits fondly greet us
And constantly entreat us
To come that they may meet US. every
year.
Our steps are growing slower. every year.
Pale death Is still a mower. every year.
Yet we faced him In the battle
Amid the muskets' rattle.
Defying showers OF metal. every year.
We are growing old and lonely. every
year.
We have recollection only, every year.
And we bled for this grand nation
On many field and station
And with any kind OF ration. every year.
Many people may forget us. every year.
And our enemies may fret us. every year,
But while onward we are drifting
Our souls with hopes are lifting
To heavenly scenes still shifting. every
year.
The Stars and Stripes grow brighter. ev.
cry year.
with labor burdens lighter. every year,
BY blood Of soldier sages
Along the rolling ages
On freemen's holy pages. every year.
In the May time Of the flowers. every
year.
We have lived In golden hours. every
year,
And our deeds be sung in story
Through the future growing hoary
With a blaze OF living glory. every year!

900 pieces of mail year go out of the
bureau, this is hardly possible. In

employees properly to handle the
business. these including doctors. law
ysrs, expert accountants and other

Every pension check now issues
from this central office. and is received
when due, instead of many days there
after. as formerly when pension agen-
cies were distributed over the coun-

have been introduced. has greatly re-
duced the clerical help required. and
the force OF the office is gradually be-
ing cut down.
Still, to handle some 7S5.000 indt-
vidual pension accounts and to provide
for regular payments thereon is no
email task. even though the total now
is being decreased from year to year
by death. The appropriation for the

FLORIDA LEADS
IN PHOSPHATE

Phosphorus, one of the most i'm
portant elements required by plants,
is obtained from phosphate rock,
which is mined at many places in the
United States and in foreign coun-
tries. Florida supplies most of the
product of the United States, and its
output exceeded that of any foreign
country. The normal annual output
of Florida in recent years has been
valued at between 100000 and
$1O,0OO,O0O.
A most interesting question is the
mode OF origin of the rock. Exami-
nation Of samples dredged from the
bottom of the sea show that there are
now accommodating in the Florida
Straits and elsewhere nodules of
phosphate of lime which are identical
in composition with the pure phos-
phate rock of commerce.
The process of formation of these
phosphate nodules is not thoroughly
understood, but is believed to be in
some manner connected with living
organisms that swarm in sea water
in countless numbers. These marine
organisms appear to have been espec-
tally abundant long ago when the
peninsula of Florida was completely
submerged beneath the sea and the
waves from the Atlantic rolled unim-
paired into the Gulf of Mexico for
the sands which were then deposited
on the bottom of the sea and have
since been converted into dry land
contain many nodules of phosphate
rock that are in all respects similar
to those being formed today. These
phosphate sands contain in most
places too little phosphate to be OF
commercial value, but they are believ-
ed to be the source from which the
important deposits of Florida phos-
phate rock have been derived.
\ During the later stages of the &C.
emulation of these sands, Florida
was inhabited by some very large ami.

STATE DIVISION
IS NOT FAVORED
SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL.

Bombay, CWest) Florida, July Is
Estate separation" was informally
discussed by directors Of the West
Florida Chamber of Commerce at
their monthly meeting, comment and
suggestions from South Florida news
pepers being presented by the secre-
tary. President B. H. Lindsey, who
first lead a fight for state separation
in the Florida legislature, expressed
the opinion that only the creation of
a new state of West Florida would be
acceptable to the citizens of this sec
ton of the state.
1t was generally agreed that any
movement looking to annexation to
Alabama would not be favored, while
it was thought that movement for
separation on the part Of South Flor
ida would find many supporters in
West Florida, would realize that the
only common point of interest be-
tween these widely separated sections
of the state is that of policies.
IF such separation were to be
brought about, the dividing line prob
ably would be asked for at the Suwan-
nee river, it was agreed during the
discussion. Creation of North and
South Florida, as suggested by some
of the peninsular papers it was not
thought would be favored in West
Florida The discussion was purely
informal and gave no expression OF
what action would be taken by the
West Florida Chamber of Commerce
as a body in event the question IS m
troduced at the next session Of the
legislature, which it is believed viii
be done by South Florida lawmakers

NERVES?-VANITY!

She settled herself three times, hunched
up her right shoulder, took off her right
glove and patted her hair, pulled the back
of her sailor collar into shape, shrugged up
her left shoulder, pulled off her left glove
and patted her hair, pushed her hat little
more to one side, and put on both gloves,
patted her hair and crossed her right ankle
over her left, squared both shoulders and
patted her hair, settled herself in a new
position and pulled her coat down at the
waist, patted her hair, surveyed her nose in
the tiny glass at the bottom of her bag, and
patted her hair, pulled her hat wee bit
more to one side, and reversed her ankles,
then began at the top of her program and
