MoToRED FROM PERDIDo TO MILwAUKEE

A great many Pensacolians who
have met DR.. and Mrs. Harold Hol-
brook and Mr.. and Mrs. Lawrence
Scott and daughter, on their visits to
Perdido, will read the following notice
from the Milwaukee Free Press with
interest:
Long motor trips from one part of
the country to another have become
quite fad among Milwaukeeans as
one way of travelling in summer
weather and the many new devices
furnished enable the motorists TO
travel quite independently, ignoring
hotels and places to lunch along the
route. Not all the travellers, how
ever ARE willing to undertake so COM
plete an outdoor trip, and the ma
iority stop at night at some hotel
along the route.
The trips bring the travellers in
close communion with nature and her
appealing beauties away from mature
with her hair cut" to the forests and
plants of primitive wilds, and they
bring back an extra store of health
and energy.
One of the most successful of these
long distance trips was recently made
by DR.. and Mrs. Harold Holbroo1s and
three children and Mr.. and Mrs. Law
renee Scott and daughter, of Milwau-
kee, from their southern home al
Perdido Bay on the Gulf of Mexico, tc
Milwaukee, a distance of over 1,25C
miles.
The trip was made without mishap
and with many interesting adventures
in nine days, out of which seventy
two hours We're spent in riding. The
motorists found a splendid highway
or pike as it is called by the southern
people, leading from the south to Nil
waukee, over the mountains, dow
ravines, and through dense weed
and sunny fields. The only disadvan
take which was easily overcome wa
fording the many small creeks which
have not been bridged.

FLORIDA SUNDAY SCHOOL ASSOCIATION

The Florida Sunday School Associa-
ton, with the various county asso-
Citations, form the systematically or
ganized vehicle for the expression of
the denominations in their united
labors.
A UNCONVENTIONAL leader says:
every derominationaI Sunday
school in the United States stands
in two relations UNCONVENTIONAL
relation to the great church of which
it is a part, and territorial relation
to the whole body of Sunday schools
in its community. Neither of these
relations is a matter of choice, so long
as it stays what it is, a denomina-
tional Sunday school. It may ne
glect its UNCONVENTIONAL duty and it
may turn its back on its Sunday
school neighbors. But as>long as it
claims credit for being a denomina-
tional school and as long as its place
Of meeting is within the lines of a
,%ertain county, it will owe denomi-
national duty to its church, and a
territorial duty to its evangelical Sun
day school neighbors, and the fellow
ship Of united Sunday school work
which they represent.
''The schools that work together
are always the schools that go ahead.
Of course, the school will respond
promptly and fully to the county sec
retary's annual call for its statistical
report, and will contribute. its full
and proper share to the county and
state expenses.
"Wherethe organized Sunday school
work is properly run, there is no con-
flict whatever between these two re-
lationships, any more than between a
mans duty to his family and rela-
