Floridatown, Feb. 13.-Having been
favored with an extension of life to
once more visit this favorite ever
green bluff at the head of Escambia
bay, ! feel an invigorating influence
stirring my rusty pen to write some
moving pictures" of this seeming ap-
proach to the Better Land.
DR.. Oswald had to resort to the
widest scenery in the southern noun

TO write his scientific articles, and a
noted musician Of Pensacola required
the most beautiful flowers to gaze
upon when reaching her heavenly
strains of nightingale melody. So
when am all absorbed in Gods glo-
rious surroundings at Floridatown, I
cannot help resuming the Sage Leaf
lets as ! penned them in days gone
by.
Since my visit here last winter the
postoffice has been re-established and
the steam ferry put in operation
across the Fscambia rivera distance
of three miles, to Ferry Pass.
The "Bay View" hotel improve

and delight. Irrigation" throughout
has broken the menacing drouth of
three long years, and acetyline gas
brightens the well furnished rooms.
The artesian wells have not ceased
to flow, as did the magnetic vein of
hot artesian water tapped at Pensa-
cola many years ago, whose heating
powers discounted those Of the great

wharf, had been spiked by, inserting
two railroad irons, followed by four
sacks of cement.
AS there has been no analysis made
of the flowing water at Floridatown,

Again in 1892, as in 1923, 1t had been a
man rather than a party that had won
the presidential election. The real issue
OF the contest had been the reelection
or rejection OF General Jackson, upon his
record az President and political leader.
Although he took the result as YER

CAMPBELLTON.


Campbellton, Feb. 13.-The pro-
verb falling trees and limbs when
the air Is still Is a sign of rain" must
be true, as the business section of
town had quite a little floSd when
the water tank fell. Being somewhat
dilapidated it could no longer hold up
the weight.
A party of eighteen of Campbell
toms theatergoers autoed to Dothan,
Ala, on the 10th to see the famous
play, safety First" and reported a
very big time.
The children of our school had a
very interesting valentine party at
the school house Friday evening. The
idea of having it originated in Miss
Collins room, but it soon broke out all
over the school. The most interesting
part was the opening of the postof-
flee and delivering out the little
greetings, of which almost every one
received something. Above all the
conduct of the children was perfect
The visitors seemed to have enjoyed
the occasion and they are always well
come to our school.
Mr.. ]. H. Fears, cashier Of the Cen
trail State bank, was in Dothan this
week looking over the plans and speci-
fications for their new bank building
which is to be erected at once.
AS Campbellton has six graded
roads leading out to other surround
ing towns, we had some excitement
about two weeks ago. Actually, an
automobile passed going to Jacob,
Fla, and we are expecting another
one some time in the near future, and
if. it comes by here they might see
Mr.. G. d. Davis for tires.
The celebration of st. Valentines
birthday, given at the beautiful home
Of Mr.. and Mrs. Renfroe under the
auspices of Miss Lucille Collins and
Mrs. Gladys Tucker, Friday night,
February IL, was a great success. Of
course it was well attended. There
being quite a number of pharisees,
sadducees, scribes and preachers. At
ter several interesting games were
played the crowd retired to the artis-
tically decorated dining room, where
refreshments were served, which
were pleasant to both the eye and
taste. When this part of the enter
tainment was over the guests passed
back to the reception room which was
beautifully decorated in the true Saint
Valentine style, and finished the cele-
bration with few very funny games;
which as it seemed all were lost to
the world and led out on a sea of
fun and enjoyment. After about
three and one-ha1f hours of pure and
elevating fun and merriment were
passed off the crowd dispersed. From
all reports this was ore of the best
entertainments given in the town this
winter.

Let's Keep a Register of
Winter Tourists.

The time for the departure Of win
ter tourists for their northern homes
is fast approaching. Pensacola al
ways regrets when the hour comes
for them to leave our city, as
each year the tourists make up an
important part of the life here.
Many will return again next win
ter. Others, in all probability, will
come back to make their permanent
home here in Pensacola, for each
year there Is an increasing number
of winter visitors who give their al
legiance to Florida.
Many from the north have already
found that Pensacola is quite as de-
lightfuT in the summer as it is In
the winter, and others might be con-
WINGED Of this fact, If those who have
found out the summer charm of PEN
sacola would tell them about it.
There should be some record, by the
way, of the visitors who come to Pen
sacola each year. The Journal be-
lieves that reference list Of the
tourists who come to the city would
be of very great value and interest.
The Journal would like to have the
name of every tourist in the city,
whether a member of the Tourist Club
or not, and will be glad to have them
register here, before going north for
the summer.

The Carnival Is Always
With Us.

Pensacola, too, Is merrymaking, in
honor Of the annual visit of Priscus.
Old Pris. and Old Gasp. ought to get
acquainted.-Tampa Tribune.
Joe Hugh Reese has also handed
Pensacola a bouquet regarding its
carnival celebration. The Journal
would express to both the editor Of
The Tribune and Reporter-Star the
heartiest appreciation of their good
words. PenEacola's Mardi Gras car
nival dates are March CT, but these
two papers, nevertheless, are none
too early in extending congratulations
on Pensacola's carnival of mirth.
This city is in gala attire all the
year round. Battleships lie at an
chort in our harbor from years end
to years end, and we OCCASIONALLY
lend them to Tampa and New Orleans
and Mobile, because they are to us
just one of our every day attrac-
tons.
Aerial flights breaking world rec
ords are not confined to any given
dates, but Pensacolians read such
news with interest over the morning
coffee any day in the year.
Carnival queens reign in this city
summer and winter, and visiting
beauties are always with us, as well
as handsome young aviators, dashing
young naval officers, and distinguish J.
ed commanders in army and navy cir
cles.
The skies are always blue here and
the sun is always right, except when
night has fallen and the great white
way shines bright; here great ships
ride at anchor and great ships sail in
cir, and all the world is merry and
all the girls are fair. Each day here
we have with us a carnival of nirth,
but Mardi Gras is coming-the best
on all the earth. We like your Gas
parilla, we think it must be fine, but
for real live celebration-give me
mine.
Don't forget the dates-March CT.
