Gregor, and all railroad traffic was
tied up there for four days.
Mr.. TIL. Schildknecht, accom-
panied by his wife and daughter,
left on Sunday for Milwaukee
where they will spend their vaca-

the German Academy was some
what misleading. He resigned as

main as one of the instructors. He
will return in time for the opening

Another break was caused in the
light service by the burning out of
one of the transformers at the CEN
trial plant last Sunday. This leaves
only two transformers ii working

Monday night and the west line
Tuesday night. A new transform

TWO STEAMERS OFF
FOR THE WAR ZONE
THE GRACIA, CARRYING A PEN
SACOLA-FURNISHED CARGO,
AND THE MERCIAN, THE
"SHOT-UP" VESSEL, LEAVE.

Two steamships left yesterday for
the war zone. These were the Spanish
Sierra liner Gracia, and the other
was the British Leyland liner Mercian.
The Gracia carries a large and val
liable miscellaneous cargo furnished
at Pensacola, and representing about
half a million dollars, and the Mer-
clan, which is the. vessel that had the
hair-breadth escape from a German
submarine, carries from Pensacola a
deckload of timber and lumber, and
supply of bunker coal.
The Mercian, after filling her bunk
ers with a large coal supply, was
shifted from the chutes to the east
side of the wharf, where the timber
and lumber was slowed aboard yes
terday.

PREPAREDNESS NOT M1LITARIsM

Let no one deceive himself as to what
war means, merely because of geograph1-
cal distances, War is not a condition IN
which we can merely encourage soldiers,
whom we admire, but do not know, to hight
battles for us. It's not a condition in which
someone else supplies the money War
means everyone. War is glutton.
The only excuse for war is the fact that
no other method has yet been devised to
defend principles that are necessary for our
existence as a nation. If we fight it must
be with human sacrifice and in human suf-
fering. We cannot and should not fight a
BRIDESMAIDS war.
If we fight it must be with the under
standing that we are working out our ma
tional destiny and our right to live as we
wish to live. This country detests war,
but does not fear it. 1t has proved this. 1t
may be unprepared, but with eyes now
open and a full knowledge of what war
means, the United States will be found a
terrible antagonist The resources. and
strength of this country are so tremendous
that they are not realized even by our
selves
With no attempt to evade responsible
ties and sacrifices and with an understand
ing that war is war, this country can soon
prove itself the most formidable opponent
in the world
Clifford Pinchot we'll says:
No one can assue us that we shall
be able to keep Out of war, because no
one knows.
Our own desire for peace is not
enough, for it often takes but one to
make quarrel
The best way, so far as human ex-
perience shows, to avoid war, is to raise
the price of breaking the peace to the
other fellow
| am for preparedness, not because
want war, but because I want peace.
Preparedness is not militarism
| Preparedness is insurance against
| war: militarism is getting ready to
| make war.
The less easy we are to conquer, the
! less likely we are to be attacked.

CAMP FOR GIRLS.

More and more is the summer camp for
girls gaining in popularity Not only are
the Y w. c. A. camps very popular, and
receiving a greater patronage each year,
but in the mountains of Virginia and North
Carolina, and in the Maine woods, girls
camps are coming into vogue
Why should not Pensacola have a girls
camp each summer? There is no place in
the world more admirably fitted as to loca-
ton and environment than is Pensacola
for the summer camp. The benefit of the
summer camp for girl is almost inestima-
BILE. Besides the gain in health, skill and
knowledge, she secures a number of things
whose value is not at first so self-evident,
but which, in the long run, count immeas-
urably.
The outdoor life here in the summer
time is not to be surpassed anywhere else
in the world Nowhere else is there finer
still water or surf bathing than here in
Pensacola There are dozens of locations
in and near the city that are admirably
suited for a summer camp.
1t is not necessary for this work to be
started on a large scale Once under way
it would grow, and would make an appeal
that would help Pensacola in many ways.

BRITISH SAILING
SHIP COMES FOR A
CARGO OF LUMBER
LARGE sQUARE-RIGGER PUTS
INTO PORT AFTER VOYAGE OF
OVER A MONTH FROM LIVER
POOL.

Out forty days from Liverpool, the
British bark Inveramsay reached Pen
sacola yesterday, and about the first
question the skipper and crew asked
pilot and harbor officials was the pro
gress of the war. Quite a lot has
transpired within forty days in the
war line, the British crew were told,
but about the biggest piece of infor-
nation was that regarding the great
sea battle, and the loss of the cruiser
Hampshire, with Kitchener aboard.
This vessel has been travelling many
miles during the past several months,
lately completing a trip from Chill to
England, going via South America, to
London.
At Pensacola, for which port the
Inveramsay sailed April 26, last, the
big ship will load cargo principally
of lumber, but timber may form a
part Of the shipment on the fine Brit
ish craft, one Of the few in port fly
ing the British colors.
Upon reaching here, the Inveram-
say was ordered to quarantine for
fumigation, and within a couple Of
days will be released, to come over
for loading.

USELESS NOISES SHOULD BE

In these days of advancement, when the
light of reason has penetrated even to the
dungeon cell and the mantel of charity
covers all things, there remains mercy for
the vilest sinner-but one And that one
is the man or the woman who goes de-
liberately out of his or her way to manu-

law-abiding people
There ought to be some special punish
ment devised for the man who uses his
automobile horn for his own personal
amusement. In the early morning hours
it breaks upon slumber like some device of
the lower regions to tear one from the
peace of clear conscience and a contented
mind. Through the hot and weary hour of
noon it sounds its discordant note like the

The watermelon is democratic; it
is not snobbish like the cantaloupe-

THE FLAG AND THE NATION.

President Wilson has issued proCIdlhd
ton calling upon the people of the United
States to celebrate Flag Day, June l4th,
with patriotic exercises, giving expression
to their LOYALTY to their Country.
President Wilson says in his Proclama-
tion. az ct us on that day dedicate our
selves to the nation, one and inseparable,
from which every thought that is not
worthy of our fathers first vows OF 1nde-
pendence, liberty and right shall be ex-
cluded and in which we shall stand with
united hearts, for an America which no
man can corrupt, no influence draw away
from its ideals no force divide against It
self, as a nation signally distinguished
among all the nations OF mankind tor its
clear individual conception alike or Its
duties and its privileges, its Obligations
and its rights
The love Of the country's colors should
be inculcated in every child of the nation,
whether free-born or from foreign shores,
and no work that has ever been undertaken
in the United States is Of greater impor-
lance than that Of the Sons and Daughters
of the American Revolution, who are seek
ing to teach to the youth of America, and
especially to the foreign born, veneration
for the traditions of the country, and love
for its institutions and its principles OF
liberty
Today, when the United States is facing
the great crisis Of history, when menace is
in the air, and the hot breath of war is
blowing strong from the Atlantic, the
Pacific, and the Gulf of Mexico, when the
roar of battle sounds loudly above the
pleading of the pacifcist and the high note
of the reveile pierces through the dream
of peace the heart turns to the flag with a
new love and a new hope.
1t is the symbol of liberty. 1t stands for
the protection of American honor, for the
vindication of American manhood. for the
salvation of American homes and hearth
stones.
Deep in the heart of every man there is
born the love of life and of liberty These
and more than these, does the flag of the
nation represent. On these shores, long
years ago, men sought liberty and found
that for which they sought Today, to
these shores their great-grandchildren
have come asking for the right to live, and
finding that right their own. Let it not be
that tomorrow may dawn, when men
coming to these shores still seeking liberty
find in its place a substitute or a counter
felt
But this may be so--this will be SOM
less every loyal American today stands
strong and firm and loyal to the flag of this
country. The flag that is the great hope
not only of America, but of all the civilized
world today-the flag that has been dyet
with the blood of patriots and consecrated
to the salvation of the worlds highest and
noblest gift to mankind-iberty.
