Interesting Musical Comedy
Offering Has a Very Anus
ing Climax.

With pretty damsels, funny COM
etlians, fine dancers, especially clean
and attractive costumes and tuneful
melodies, the Bartles Musical Comedy
Company, with Miss Myrtle Bartles
and her "Dixie Girls" surpassed all
advance press motives with Meir three
performances at the Odeon yesterday.
This musical show has all the feat
ures that please and none that offend.
The audience is delighted with some
thing or other from the time the cur
tain rises until the close Of the per-
Torrance. Each part seems better
than the. other until the climax Is
reached amid most excruciatingly
amusing comedy mixup. Nothing in
the line Of tabloid has surpassed the
Bartles Musical Comedy Company.
1t is difficult to pick out the stars
Of the performance as each member OF
the company works and works hard
every minute for the success OF the
show. The singing part Of the show
is exceptionally good, and the whirl-
wind tango dancers make. big hit at
every performance. Herman Peter
man, a blackface comedian, is great
and the chorus of six petite and lovely
girls is:one Of the chief features OF the
show. The work on these young lad
les is of superior order, and deserving
of favorable comment. There will be
a change Of performance tomorrow af-
ternoon.

MARKET
FOR ROTTERDAM
PLAN PROPOSED BY CHAMBER
OF COMMERCE WILL HAVE
IMPORTANT BEARING ON AN
OUTLET FOR THE STAPLE.

The chamber of commerce of the
port of Rotterdam has inaugurated
an association for the cotton trade,
called the 'Vereeniging vocr den Kat
oenhandel tie Rotterdam" (Associa-
ton for the Cotton Trade at Rotter-
dam,) composed of the prominent
commercial, banking and transporta-
ton firms of that city and under pat
ronage Of the government, with a
view to further the creation of a
cotton exchange there for spots as
we'll as futures; to compose exchange
terms and to establish a bureau of
arbitration with fibre experts.
The plans will be carried out with
expediency in order that the Rotter-
dam cotton exchange may start its
operations at once.
The chamber of commerce has also
established a "Katoenveem" lection
warehouse) of modern facilities for
cotton. This ''Veem" will be opened
this autumn, and it is plaRned to have
everything in working order before
the termination of the war, so that as
soon as the trade is unhampered
again, every effort will be applied to
revive the cotton market, which has
existed in Rotterdam formerly.
As the factories in Twenthe and
Brabant can be better served from
Rotterdam than from Bremen, the
previous principal source of supply
fo,. 4bosa districts and as itr mora
favorable geographical situation en-
able Rotterdam to serve at cheaper
freights than Bremen, large port Of
Western and Southern Germany, Aus
tria, Switzerland and Belgium-there
is every reason to believe that an i'm
portant part of the cotton trade will
be successfully drawn to Rotterdam.

FAR REACHING WILL
De BENEFITS OF
TWIN TOURS TRIP
BRIDGE AT FERRY PASS WILL
BE BUILT BECAUSE OF ROAD
BOOSTING TOUR WELDING
COUNTRY's INTERESTS.
By W. NJ. HERRIDER.

The ''Twin Trip" to Quincy proved
a most successful one in many re-
spects and its influences for good will
be of lasting quality.
From Jacksonville to Pensacola the
good roads spirit and enthusiasm was
passed along in speech and travel
with thousands as interested speeta-
tors and hundreds who have taken on
additional enthusiasm for good roads
and the early completion of the sold
Spanish Trail"
While the original plan for the trail
did not include an east and west road
into Jacksonville, the influences left
on the footprints of the sand" is
bound to see this accomplished and an
early demonstration of the edo it
now" spirit is looked for with aston
ishing results. The Old Spanish
Trail would really not be complete
did it not reach Jacksonville for it is
recognized the Gateway to Florida"
by the people of the north.
The get-to-gether spirit of the peo-
pie from the east and those from the
west was wonderfully apparent; the
very atmosphere seemed to say let
us clasp hands and pull together, for
our grand cause and complete the
trail that we may be neighbors and
help each other in the upbuilding of
our commonwealth.
Many men of prominence were
there. Men that do big things as well
as those WIZ humbly contribute their
unite yet all on one common plane
for our common cause, to serve the
state and humanity. Good fellowship
was dominating factor at the Quin-
cy meeting and enroute. Old friends
met again, new ones were made and
in all there is greater feeling of
unity for the "Old Spanish Trail" and
the general upbuilding ard develop
ment of Florida.
From Pensacola to Quincy we found
that people in most towns were vital
ly interested and it was their people
and the touring party that profited.
Where there was lack of interest
the people were losers. He who makes
the greatest sacrifice profits most.
Milligan and Harold delegates pilot
ed us for miles. Munson delegates
met the party at Milligan and stayed
with it faithfully until it reached Chu-
muckla Springs. The Chipley delega-
ton met US at Bombay to bid us well
come and was faithful until our :
turn to Chipley. Baker sent eight
delegates to meet US at Crestview anc
pilot US to Baker and Munson. TC
these and others who were prevented
from going, let US give credit.
All along the line there where
speeches were made and where they
were not there was good fellowship
long to be remembered.
The tour has resulted in determi
nation of Pensacola and Milton peo
pie to see that the Escambia river is
bridged at Ferry Pass and to that enc
a joint meeting is called for July 7th
in this city.
Hon. w. A. McRae, commissions
of agriculture, has rendered his serv
ices on this occasion and will give
the people the benefit of a practica
plan to secure this bridge.
Better roads, better schools and tn,
development of agriculture was tn,
key note of the Pensacola speakers
from Milton to Quincy. Yes the in
fluence. of the Erwin Trip" is a last
ing one and it should be repeated a
a future time.

The FIRST Job.

A host of young fellows just out of
school and college are this month for
the first time drawing a regular pay
envelope. No wages earned in later
life, even if much larger, ever looks
quite as good to them as the first Sat
urday night payment. To many it
means financial independence of their
parents of which they have long dream
ed.
The agile fingers Of boy often COM
mand a range of pay quite out of pro-
portion to what he should earn later on.
A fifteen year old youngster feels
mighty proud earning $3.50 6 day fold
ing circulars. He swaggers around in
the loafing places Of the town showing
his roll, and treating the girls. But let
him reflect that if he were to fold
circulars all his life, he would never
get much more than that
Most young men are anxious for big
pay quick. They can not afford to
wait. They want their automobiles
NOW anu GHey uU uOG WANT any Olu-IdSu-
Toned four-cylinder machines, either.
They are looking for short cuts to sue
cess, and are impatient with the hard
The thing for them to consider is
not how much money they are getting
for start, but whether they are in
some place that is educating them for
better things later on.
In many employments requiring the
finer determinations, the new man is
practically useless for a year or two.
He may be paid little something to
encourage him, but he makes more mis-
takes than his wages are worth. But
all the time he is learning things that
may be of great value to him. He
should reflect that business training
must be paid for as well as a scholastic
one. A position in which good pay
can be earned at the start is not apt
to lead to anything much higher. The
size of the salary is a sign that the
work is too easy to learn, and that it
leads to no further advancement
