City Engineer Crawford has COM
'pleted a map OF the town Of Water
willie. showing all the streets Of the
city, and the country roads. The map
is very complete and is drawn to scale
It has been framed and will be hung in
the engineers Office. It is another con-
tribution which Mr.. Crawford has
made to the valuable maps which are
now in the possession of the city and
which give very comprehensive show
ing of the streets, the fire alarm boxes,
the hydrants, the sewers and other
underground work and in fact about
everything that may be needed in
the work of the city or that will be
useful to future generations Had such
maps been prepared when the present
sewer system was first put in a great
deal of bother and trouble would have
been saved.

FAIRFIELD
Fire Sunday Night at the Home
of Joseph Gilblair on
Summer Street with
Loss of $40O
OTHER LOCAL AND PERSON.
AL MENTION OF THE DAY

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph
Gilblair Of Summer street, was badly
damaged by fire late Sunday night
Fire was discovered about 113O by
Mr.. Gilblair when he traced the smell
OF smoke to the woodshed> of his
home. Mr.. Gilblair and his wife,
both aged about so years. were asleep
IN an upper chamber of the Gilblair
home. Mr.. Gilblair smelled the smoke
and found a brisk blaze in the wood l.
shed. Mrs. Gilblair who is i'll was
carried by her husband from the
burning home and taken under the
care Of neighbor. An alarm was
rung in from Box No. "a. corner of
Main and Pleasant streets. The
airfield Fire Department responded
quickly. Two lines of hose We're laid.
About the only thing the firemen
could do was to prevent the fire from
spreading to the main part of the
house. The shed was completely des-
troyed, and the ell of the house was
badly damaged by water and smoke
The flames spread to the upper part of
the house, and a large quantity OF
water was used in checking the blaze
there. The loss is estimated at a
total of about $500.
The Dial Club was entertained Mon
day afternoon at the home Of Mrs.

aIany Of the teams Of the city were
on wheels Monday and some that came
in from outside found that the wheel
ing was better than the shedding. There
were number of places where the
snow was missing from nearly every
road and in order to handle a fair-sized
load OF the most of the roads wheels
were necessary. If this kind of trav-
cling was very common there would
be demand for some kind of a cart
which could be changed from wheels
to runners as it went along the road,
somewhat after the style of some of
the baby carriages which are now on
the market. Another good snow storm
Is badly needed in this section.

FRIENDS OF HIGH
SCHOOL CAN AID
! THE IN TITUTION
ABOUT ONE HUNDRED DOL -
NEEDED TO PAY OFF INDEBT-
EDNESS INCURRED BY STU.
DENT BODIES.

1t has been determined by the facul-
ty and students of the high school to
afford the patrons and friends of the
school and all public-spirited citizens
of the city an opportunity to contrib
ute something toward the expenses of
student activity in the school. Under
this head might be mentioned ath
letics, publications, etc. During the
past few years there have been from
time to time small accounts made by
different organizations in the high
school that could not be paid at the
time. These little accounts have
gradually accumulated until they ag-
gregate something like one hundred
dollars.
The citizens of Pensacola so far as
is known have not been appealed to
in the past to assist In defraying
these expenses as is done in other
places. The students have endeavored
to raise this money among themselves
and by their own efforts. In this they
have succeeded remarkably well and
with a little assistance on the part of
the public they would be able to close
up the year with clean slate.
To this end four committees, COM
posed of three boys each have been
appointed and authorized by the high
school to call upon the citizens dur
ing Saturday and solicit funds. It is
especially desired by the members of

RECOMMENDS It
TO HIS PATIENTS
Prominent Georgia Physician Now
Gives Master Medicine His
Unqualified Endorse
ment.

DR.. J. 7. Edwards, Of Fayetteville,
Ga, one of the best-known members
of the medical profession in the state
of Georgia, makes a statement that
will undoubtedly produce a profound
impression throughout the South.
I'm my thirty years of active prac-
tice as licensed physician in the
state of Georgia" says DR.. Edwards,
Il have never seen anything to equal
Tanlac as a medicine to produce re-
suits. hear people on all sides
telling of the benefits they have de-
rived from its use.
"Tanlac is simlCy the talk of my
town. / have no hesitancy in recon-
mending the medicine; and as mat
ter of fact, I am prescribing it for
my patients almost every day.
"0nly few days ago a well-known
woman of Fayetteville came to me and
told me about the remarkable relief
her daughter had gained from the
use of this medicine. She said her
daughter had been confined to her
bed for three years with what had
been pronounced pellagra, and that
after using Tanlac for a short time
she was able to be ABOUT and was on
the road to recovery.
But this is only one instance.
People in all walks of life in and
around our little city are giving SIM
liar Endorsements to the medicine.
Seldom day passes that someone
does not come to me and say some
thing about the good results they
are getting from the use of Tanlac.
Several unusual gains in weight
have been reported by some of our
most prominent people, and / have
treated some stubborn cases of indi-
gestion, catarrhal conditions and or
ganic disorders and secured splendid
results with Tanlac."
Commenting upon this statement.
Mr.. G. F. Willis, Southern distribu-
tor of Tanlac, said:
Coming from the high source it
does, and especially from a member
of the medical profession, this
straightforward utterance of DR.. Ed
wards is more than a recommends
ton. 1t is a triumph! Tanlac, Ma
lures great vegetable tonic, correct
rye and system-builder, is truly one
of the greatest discoveries of the de-
cade, and the best evidence of this is
the confidence and high esteem in
which it is held, not only by the great
masses of the people, but by leaders
and public men everywhere. No oAsier
medicine has ever established the
reputation Tanlac has, nor has anv
other received the high Endorsement
of medical men and laity."
Genuine Tanlac is sold only and ex-
in Pensacola by the Crystal
Pharmacy; in Bluff Springs by Rhett
G. Stanton; in Century by the Cen
fury Pharmacy; in Moline by Hall
Mason Drug Company; by Waggen-
efs Pharmacy, Warrington, Fla, and
