"rHE GIRL LEFT BEHIND ME-"

"A woman fainted'-and the band play
ed on. and the men in khaki marched away.
The woman was carried into the nearest
drug store. Presently she went home7-to
fight it out a1one-without any glory.
Our soldiers wives have always had to
fight it out that way Nevertheless, their
struggle was imposed upon them by the
government, just as surely as their hus
bands joined the colors at the countrys
cali
But the state has never recognized wom-
ans share in mobilization The state makes
no provision for rations for the wives and
children of the soldiers who are left behind,
without means of support And the sol
dier's pay is altogether insufficient for an
average family's needs.
Fortunately, so far in the nations his
tory, state support of those dependent upon
soldiers has been unnecessary. The elders
of families have always managed somehow
ito take care of their own" In the Civil
war this was accepted as patriotic duty,
and the same tradition was maintained in
the Spanish war.
But the tremendous economical pressure
of today, which often makes the work of
two or three persons necessary for the sup
port of one large family, has completely
revolutionized former conditions.
European countries do some things bet
ter than we do. In war times, an allowance
is made for mothers in proportion to the
number of their children, by most nations.
It is not much-but it is not charity
which is substantially what our own gov
eminent compels thousands of American
wives to accept. That is what hurts The
fight of the girl who is left behind is always
IN proportion to the 1egree of her pride.
However the present Mexican trouble
shapes itself, it is bound to boone labora-
tory for the study of greater preparedness.
However congress may act in framing
our military plans for the future, it must
make some provision for the wives and
children of the men at the front-or we will
never have any such thing as adequate pre-

PURE WATER.
paredness

The term pure water is not a satisfac-
tory one because pure water does not exist
IN nature.
Because of its great dissolving power for
eign substances are always present, al
though perhaps unseen.
Because of these various substances a
good drinking water may be bad for the
laundry, or it may corrode pipes. On the
other hand, a good water for boilers may be
dangerous for person to drink
The first characteristic of a water fit to
be used for drinking, for brushing the teeth
or for cooking and the various household
uses is freedom from germs of disease.
Bitter experience has shown that water
may cause typhoid fever by Transporting
the living typhoid fever from some person
sick with the disease to some we'll person.
In this case the. water plays no other part
than that of floating the germs along, I'm
less it be that it keeps them from drying
up. The typhoid germs do not multiply in
water, but, on the contrary, die out little by
little and so gradually lose their power to
do harm
Water that is contaminated with sewage
or other discharges is dangerous to drink.
1t may not always cause sickness, because
the sewage may not always contain germs
from persons sick of typhoid fever and
other water-borne diseases, but it is always
dangerous.
It is not sufficient that a public water
supply be safe to drink It should be clean
SO that the people will enjoy drinking it. In
spite OF warnings, people will enjoy drink
ing water that IS most attractive looking
and palatab1e.

YOUR DUTY TO THE STATE.

With an election so closely contested as
the one from which Florida has just
emerged, it is only natural thatthere should
be some keen disappointments.
But the fact remains that certain candt-
dates ARE elected and that certain other
candidates ARE NOT elected.
No one is interested in losers explana-
ton. The man who cannot stand defeat
should not run; and the days work does
not give us time to listen to the bitter re-
vikings of his partisans. They do no good
to themselves or the rest of the state. To
continue antagonism after man has been
fairly and squarely chosen by a majority
is simply absurd.
Nay, it is worse.
For in speaking against your officers
you are striking at your state and, through
i it, your own interests.

All the cars were paid for when they
were seized. All the canned goods
in the city likewise were confiscated

At FL Paso there is a motorcycle
company, consisting of three men and
one machine gun with each cycle. Sup

equipped with train wheels to be used

People who reside in El Paso and

STORY OF THE
MEXICAN TRAP
. : . = . . Ii : ANAAAA

F. R. LeBaron, formerly of PEN
sacola, where he has many relatives
and friends, has told the St. Peters
burg Times an interesting story of
how Captain Boyd was tricked into
the Greaser trap. Mr.. LeBaron is
just back from trip to Texas:
To see the people of Ell Paso move
about person would not think that
they are in the midst Of what prom
Uses to be hot war, he said.
There were 1000 of the regular
United States troops there when Mr..
LeBaron left Tuesday night. Of that
number 400 were acting as police in
the city and 1000 doing guard duty
around the city.
The news of the movement of the
troops there, the plans and military
activities is not permitted to be sent
out. General Bell, who is in COM
mand there, has put on the strictest
censorship.
An explanation of incidents leading
up to tie Carrizal attack and the
death of General Boyd as told to Mr..
LeBaron by soldier who formerly
was stationed at Fort Dade on Tam
! pa bay, is related by Mr.. LeBaron
as follows: A Mexican came to Per
shing with a story of the death and
burial of Villa, telling him that he
could show him the place where the
body was buried. Pershing cautioned
Boyd to beware of a trap, but sent
him to investigate. Boyd went and
the trouble which brought the crisis
to a head resulted.
The soldier who told Mr.. LeBaron
this story was with Pershing at the
time of the Columbus raid and went
with him into Mexico at that time,
having been there since, until few
days ago, when he came to Ell Paso
on a ten-day furlough to rest.
Mr.. LeBaron was told of the con-
fiscation of 739 automobiles by the
American governments and also every
motorcycle in the city. The autos
were new ones, but the announcement
was made that if others were needed

Hon. Editor of The Journal: In
reading your very esteemed paper
find that you are not disposed to be
unfair to the negro as a soldier, and
especially those that recently died on
Mexican soil in the defense of the
flag of our grand republic.
In reading the southern papers in
our present conflict, I am more than
compelled to say to my race, Go for
ward and answer every call in sus-
tenance to the flag of our country.
Let me say to the public at large
/ believe that the American nation
is proud of such negroes as those that
died a week or more ago of General
Pershing's Army.

cREArEsT BUSINESS OF ALL

S. w. Hiatt, farm demonstration for Is
Gambia county, in an interview with The
Journal, recently called attention to the
fact that at all the great conventions the
chief topic is agriculture and the farmer.
Mr.. Hiatt was correct in his estimate OF
the important place that agriculture is TAX
ing in the South, and most particularly in
Florida, which is destined to become the
great farming center of the United States.
The importance of farming, and most es-
pecially diversified farming, cannot be over
estimated, and that it is taking precedence
over other interests is evidenced in the fore
most place given it on every program where
men are met together to discuss CONNER
cial values or financial potentialities.
When the bankers association met in
Pensacola, the value of agriculture was one
of the chief topics for discussion on their
program, and when the Cotton Seed Crush
ers' Association met here agriculture was
again one of the foremost subjects.
The value of agriculture is unquestioned
by anyone familiar with the processes of
commercial life, and the man of business
quite as much as the man of agriculture, is
today taking a very active part in the agri-
cultural development of the community, in
which he is interested. This is because the
business man realizes, as perhaps even the
farmer cannot, how dependent upon the ag-
ricultural interests are the business inter
ests of the country-in fact, that the two
are practically synonymous
The farmers of West Florida are eyi-
dencing as never before their faith in the
agricultural future of the state, and es-
pecially this section.
The farmers of Escambia county can do
a very large part in development work by
lending their efforts to make success Of
the Escambia county fair in the fall There
is nothing of greater importance in adver-
Using this section than the annual fair The
farmers and business men of West Florida
and especially of Escambia county, must
work together if the county is to take its
rightfu1 place in the development of Flor
ida. At the fair the business interests and
the farming interests come into close and
vital contact, which makes for the advan-
tage of both.
Let the farmers of Escambia county,
then, make every effort to have the exhibits
at the fair this year representative of the
best that this country can produce, in this
way lending their aid to a movement for
more farms and better farming in this sec
tion of the state.
