tuition in the coming years. May we
not hope that these ideals which he
had, will be carried out and that the
same guiding providence which, NOV
ing in a mysterious way, removed
him in this, the heyday Of his life,
will raise up some one who may in
measure at least carry out the plans
he had formed and cherished.
Not only will he be missed by rea-
son of his leadership in the Chautau-
qua and other great movements, but
his unbounded christian charity which
was so freely bestowed upon the needy
will be sorely missed. None who
were worthy of assistance and their
need made known to him, ever failed
to receive help from him.
He himself by his work and life
erected monument which will outlive
a monument of granite or stone, for
his memory will ever be held dear by
those who knew him best-his friends
and neighbors in DeFuniak Springs
and this memory will be handed down
to the coming generations.

A GREAT GET-TOGETHER.

One million acres will be represented
when the business men and farmers OF
West Florida meet at Magnolia Thursday,
to form the West Florida Stockgrowers
Association.
The least of the plans contemplated is to
hire permanent cattle expert, who will not
only devote his time to developing the
herds of the members, but will attend to
the marketing as well.
His mission will be to produce the best
stock possible, and get the highest price
possible.
This is the plan that other sections of
the country have already tried and found
good; that we are adopting it is one of the
great benefits of the recent excursion of
West Florida business men and farmers
through the cattle belt of Kentucky and
Tennessee.
Another plan that may be adopted will
be for the organization to import CARROTS of
blooded stock, which will be distributed to
\ the membership at lower cost than they
could be bought by individual purchasers.
The importance of this great Get-Together
cannot be over-estimated. The Stockgrow-
ers Association is the outgrowth of def
mite need-not the result of moments en-
thusiasm. 1t marks the definite divergence
of West Florida from the mists of economic
impotence The interests at stake and the
money involved are too great for it to fail

lust WORDS.

1t is on record that Representative Hay
of Virginia, believes,
a. To "call'' and draft" troops mean
the same thing.
(2) To "call' and draft" troops mean
quite separate and distinct things
The way it happened was this: In the
conference committee room, the word
called" was stricken from the bill provid-
ing for Reserve Battalions" and the word
drafted" substituted The clause in ques-
ton reads as follows:
aft for any reason there shall not be enough
voluntary enstments to keep the battal-
ions at the prescribed strength sufficient number
of the unorganized militia shall be DRAFTED
into the service of the United States to maintain
each OF such battalions at the proper strength"
When asked why he made the substitu-
ton, the Hon. Hay said What is the diff
ference between the President being author
lied to CALL men out and to DRAFT
them? There is no difference
This was on August 25. But on March
%, when the question of bringing the mill
tia into the federal service was before the
House, objection was made to the word
draft" as applied to the militia, and an at
tempt was made to substitute the word
"order" Said the Hon. HAY: "The word
order and draft are two entirely separate
and distinct words and mean entirely sepa-
rate and distinct things" Then the word
"call'' was suggested, to which the Hon
Hay: There would be the same trouble
with the language"
Still, we plain people need not get ex-
cited. Under democratic institutions, every
body has right to representation, and if it
wasn't for the Congressional Record, what
chance would cabaret statesmen have to see
their names in print?

THIS DRUGGIST
WAS HONEST

Some time ago I went into the

conversation took place between Mr..
Gerke and myself: 'Theadore, how
does it come that you sell so much

than these other druggists around
here? Mr.. Gerke answered: "a
year or so ago my wife came into
the store and said she was going to
take blood medicine. She looked
over the kinds l had on the shelf
and reckon you put up the best
spiel as she took q bottle Of 40.

Editor of The Journal:

Editor of The Journal:
I desire to correct the impression
that might be created by the article
m Sundays Journal, relating to the
affidavit sworn by myself against W.
S. Vincent of the Pensacola Seed and
Nursery Co., which would lead the
reader to suppose was the outcome
of some difference between w. S.
Vincent and myself.
I wish to say in justice to the pub
lie, the State Plant Board and my
self, that the affidavit made against
W. S. Vincent was the direct result
of letter addressed to me by the
said State Plant Board, dated Au-
gust 16, 1915, saying, in part, that
there had been "placed in the hands
of the states attorney at Pensacola
information and affidavits showing
about thirteen distinct violations of
the Florida plant act and the plant
board rules by w. S. Vincent" and
of the statement to me by Mr.. Loftin,
the county solicitor, that upon the
fling by any citizen of an affidavit
covering any one of the said charges
he would proceed against him on all
of the counts.
Also your statement relating to the
tree killing in the neighborhood of
Cottage Hill is incorrect. The trees
referred to were in the groves of
Mr.. Cimmerer and Mr.. Guernsey on
the east side of Flonaton hard-road
about one mile north of Olive.
Respectfully,
GEO. HUELSBECK.

TRIBUTE In MEMORY
OF KENNETH BRUCE
By A. G. CAMPBELL.

In the late afternoon of Sunday,
September the 3rd, our entire COM
munity was shocked at the news that
Mr.. Kenneth Bruce, president of the
Florida Chautauqua Association, had
passed away at Hot Springs, Virginia.
Mr.. Bruce was born in Poughkeep-
sic, New York, December %, 1876.
He there attended Bisbee's Military
Academy In 1889 when his father,
the late, lamented Wallace Bruce, was
appointed as Consul to. Edinburgh,
Scotland, he carried with him his fam
lily and there Kenneth was placed in
DR.. Bryce's Collegiate School for
boys where for three years he proved
himself a faithful and painstaking
student. However, it was not the de-
sire of the father that the son should
be educated across the waters, but
that he should complete his education
in America, so after three years of
study in Edinburgh, Mr.. Kenneth
Bruce returned to New York, one year
prior to the return of his father and
family. He then entered Williston
Seminary and later Phillips Andover
where he prepared for entering Yale
University. Even in these preparatory
schools he received recognition for
his literary attachments and other
scholarly achievements, and was often
awarded prizes in various debates. 1t
/ - - - al
sity, the Institution from which his
| father had graduated in the years
gone by, and it was his privilege, after
completing his work in these prepara-
| tory schools, to enter this University
from which he graduated in 1900. Mr..
Bruce was a member of the Yale Lit
erary Society and was editor of the
Yale Literary Magazine.
1t was while he was yet in the Uni
versity that he began giving literary
lectures, the first of which the peo-
pie of DeFuniak Springs had the hon
or and the extreme fortune to hear,
as it was from the Florida Chautau-
qua platform that he delivered his
first literary lecture, 'The Idylls of
the King" After graduation from
the university, it was his desire to
study law and he attended law
schools in New York for some time.
However, he was loyal and devoted
son and recognizing the vast assis-
lance that he might be to his father
who had assumed the burden Of car
rying on the Florida Chautauqua in
addition to his publishing work in
] Brooklyn, New York, he abandoned
! the study of law and came to the as
, sistance of his father in the Chautau-
qua work. From that day he devoted
his attention to literature and the lee
ture platform. He was recognized as
; one of the most popular lecturers and
was invited to various places, and
wherever he lectued it was the desire
! of those who had the opportunity OF
hearing him, to have him return.
The bset years of his life were given
: TO the service Of DeFuniak Springs al
well as the rest Of Western Florida
: Since his fathers health failed him
years ago, he has ably and success
! fully carried on the great Chautauqua
work. He had unbounded confidence
in the future of the Florida Chautau-
qua, and in his mind had greater
things in store for this great Insti-

Fearless Jones

Charles E. Jones, editor of Dixie,
has been abused by Cats and his
hand organs, but he remains fear
lessly and relentlessly on the job and
is a power for good in exposing the
character of the forces that are at
tempting to disrupt the Democratic
party. Jones doesn't take much heed
as to what people say about him.
He is one of the few who drive ahead
regardless of popular whim. He
does bravely what be believes to be
right and no matter what the results
he keeps on. His mail is laden with
letters from all parts of Florida en-
couraging him to keep up the fight.
The welfare of the state is at stake
and men of his logged determination
are needed on the firing line.-Or-

How Catarrh is Contracted

Mothers are sometimes so thought
less as to neglect the colds which
their children contract. The in
flammation of the mucus membrane,
at first acute, becomes chronic and
the child has chronic catarrh, a
disease that is seldom cured and
that may prove life's burden.
Many persons who have this loath-
some disease will remember having
had frequent colds at the time it
was contracted. A little fore
thought, bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy judiciously used,
and all this trouble might have
been avoided. Obtainable every
where.
