MILLIONS CARNIVAL.

MiFen is getting to be quite habit with
US. Not the poet Milton, but the town Mil
ton; not the Milton of Paradise Lost, but
the Milton of Santa Rosa county (which is
quite different thing.
Those who attended Milton's carnival
last year need no coaxing to take in this
years celebration. And those who did not,
if they know anything at all about Millions
progress and enterprise which have so IL
Illuminated these columns, will know that
anything Milton puts its hand to, is a go
and likewise whizz
This is Milton's second carnival: it will
be held on February s, 9 and 10; there will
be something doing all the time, and one of
the principal features will be $50 loving
cup to the most beautifully decorated Pen
sacola automobile, in the Pensacola Day
parade on Friday, February 8. Breathes
there man with soul so dead who does
not thirst for the trophy?
Pensacola will not do itself Justice unless
il sends big delegation to Miltoi. Not
that we should patronize Milton far from
it. We can learn almost as much from
Milton as Milton can from u.s. But we will
have bully good time if we go, and
Miltonians will better enjoy the hospitality
Of our carnival ten days later if they first
play the host to Pensacolans.

PENsAcoLA-cITY BEAUTIFUL

Flowers are sign of rejoicing, symbol
of happiness, a token of triumph. We
strew the wedding path with roses, we
crown our heroes with laurel, we glorify
greatness with garlands. Pensacohans
therefore, need no special urge to decorate
their town with flowers, dress its lawns and
beautify it generally-rejoicing, as they
are, in its wonderful development, happy in
its present triumph, and triumphant in its
future.
Opportunity foc concerted action in this
direction is offered by the City Beautiful
Contest, instituted by the Rotary club.
The plan, full particulars of which will be
furnished by the City Beautiful committee,
P. O. Box 1863, city, includes prizes, both pc
cuniary and honorary, for the best kept
premises. Flowers are the easiest, cheap
est, and best beautifiers; but flowers are not
enough, for the premises and adjoining To-
calities must be kept clean and wholesome.
Thus if there is an alleyway or vacant lot
next an entrys yard, he must see that it be
kept free of unsightly objects or unsanitary
conditions.
AS is we'll known, flowers constitute one
Ct California greatest advertising features
"a beauty that pays in dollars and cents,
md flowers are the peculiar glory of this
and Of Sunshine, of which Pensacola is
the capital. Who for instance, coming
here in the late spring, can forget the sweet
peas that illumine so many of our gardens
with patches of rainbow? e
That flowers may be universal. that the
eve may be bewildered with beauty, and the
soul made drunk with fragrance, that all
unsiohtlv spots NAV be cleaned I'D and all
trash destroyed, is the object of the home
and garden contest. Young and old, rich
and poor-this is an emulation in which all
should engage. The fact that one family
in six owns an automobile here indicates
population of more than usual intelligence
and energy, and the pride of Pensacolians is
proverbial-two factors that guarantee. a
splendid success for the movement.

THE SCRATCH PAD
By THOMAS EWING DARNEY.

Fisk, the banker, is the latest man
who has declared there is a truth
leak in Tom Lawson's testimony.
True, too true. remarked Old King
Connie, as he read the passage "un-
easy lies the head that wears a
crown"
Even if those suffragette sentinels
were to cut their tongue out, in order
to be silent, they couldn't keep their
teeth from chattering.
A man lying on his back under an
automobile is an undignified object,
but nothing to compare with King
George falling off a horse.
Is the man who writes 'The Diver
sified Farmer" in the Montgomery
Advertiser reading Maupassant He
writes: There is no blessing on earth
equal to an ugly wife,"
At this writing, it is hard to say
whether Roosevelt's condemnation Of
President Wilson's senate speech Is
greater praise than jeremiah
O'Leary's praise is condemnation.
The kaiser says that "our sword
will force peace" If he is going to
make a can opener out of it, he had
better speel it "pease" and keep with
in the realm of probability.
Battle of the Cow" is the name
OF the latest border fracas, accord.
ing to a news dispatch. Inasmuch al
there is no proof that anybody was
hurt on either side, Throwing tn,
Bull" would be more appropriate.
I The governor of Pennsylvania, ae
cording to the Philadelphia Evening
Ledger, charged his wedding trip ex
penses, amounting to $301.85, to tn,
state. Fortunately, however, the PEG
pie don't have to pay the honey
moon expenses of a Solomon.
1t is said that President Wilson
may try the 25 cent diet of the New
York calory squad. This may be takel
as indicative Of how high everythin,
is. Let us hope they won't go higher
or the president may be forced t
join the bread line.

By WINIFRED S. GETTEMY,
Assistant Professor of Domestic Art,
Iowa State College.

Home furnishing is not question
of money, chiefly, but of knowledge
Comfort, simplicity and beauty, the
essentials of well furnished home,
are within reach Of even the small
income, provided the one who directs
the furnishing has some understand
ing of line, proportion and color, the
laws that govern all ornamentation.
In terms of art, value means the
degree of dark or light of tone.
The natural divisions of room
may be ikened to those in land
scape; floor-earth; walls-fore-
ground; ceiling-sky.
In the landscape, these divisions
are of distinct values, ranging from
the earth, with the darkest value, to
the foreground, medium, and finally
to the sky, the lightest. The cor
responding parts of room should be
of the same relative values.
The floor-The use of the floor
requires that it be dark enough to
Withstand the natural dust that may
be carried in upon it.
In the floor covering, color as we'll
as design should be such as to en-
phasize the flatness of the surface
covered. 1t jars the sense of the fit
ness of things to walk upon pictures
Of sleeping dogs or cats or luscious
red roses, while soft dull tones and in
conspicuous geometric patterns serve
not only as a Becoming background
for the other furnishings of the room,
but also fulfill the duty for which they
are made.
The walls-The walls are not walls
alone, but also the background for
pictures and furniture and should be
subdued in tone, but lighter than the
floor. Plain wall surfaces are always
the best.
When figures are used they should
be of conventional nature, small in
design, soft in color and, like the floor
coverings, emphasize the flatness OF
the wall. On bright, large figured
walls picture suffer decidedly from
the contrast. Such walls should be
kept free from pictures as they are
sufficient decoration in themselves.
Proportions-ExtremeIy high cell.
ings will appear lower if the picture
molding is dropped as low as possible
When wall spaces are extremely low
or very long they should never be
broken by picture moulding or plate
rail. Additional horizontal lines only
emphasize low long effects. The use
of striped paper in such rooms, where
it is suitable, viii serve as a counter
attraction to the exaggerated hori-
zontal lines.
Interior as whoIe-The whole
floor of house should be considered
as one in the question of decoration
If well arranged, the rooms will be

SPEAKING OF WEATHER.

A barefoot boy flying kite-there's
midWinter picture for you!
Yet it's only one of the many similar
scenes. Pensacola and West Florida are Of
fering now.
Fans going in the ice cream parlors, light
clothes, open automobiles Grass greening,
roses blooming, the first sweet peas of the
season.
Occasionally dash of cold air that sends
everybody shivering to the woodshed-
just to remind them of what's happening
further UP the country for about six months
of the year.
Or maybe little rain-just to relieve the
monotony of the brilliant sunshine.
Fishing and boating, and hunting and
tennis and golf.
So much for the pleasures-as for the
work! Well, it is little warm sometimes,
but then, what's a coat for if not to take off !?
Then you don't have to put the cattle in
barns. AS you will very soon find out,
dairy cattle will do much better if allowed
to stay outside even the coolest nights, with
only shed to keep the rain off, and wind
break against the northern blasts. As for
chickens, a roof is the most they should
have-if that. They will lay more con
sistently and be less liable to colds if ex-
posed entirely to the wind, than if confined
in all alright house.
Then there is the winter pasture-did
you ever see anything prettier than a field
| of oats Except of course, sweet peas), with
the wind frisking across its surface? If al
lowed to head up, the yield will be about
| twenty-five bushels to the acre, or if you
prefer to pasture the crop, you will enrich
your land and feed your stock at the same
time
! And life is so slow and easy and pleasant.
Sometimes, in fit of pessimistic enthus-
iasm, we may think it is little too slow
but with four growing seasons a year, we
have never learned the necessity of the hun
CRY hurry of north and west, with only
three or four months in which to snatch a
living from the earth before it is again
shrouded in snow.
The sights that are so strange to our Wis
itors are every bit as strange to us-wher
we stop to look at them. But as we do not
take advantage of our opportunities, SO we
hardly realize the supreme good fortune
that has cast our lot in West Florida, Es-
Gambia and Pensacola. Only people who
have lived elsewhere can know that.

The first Federal appropriation for the
eradication of tick fever was $50, 800 made
available July 1, 1906. This appropriation
has been increased from time to time, until
