ANOTHER ANNIVERSARY.

One hundred and forty-two years and
one day after the battle of Lexington was
fought, the first flight of Americas first
dirigible was made at Pensacola SPLEEN
did success.
In place of Paul Revere's lantern and
steed we now have the cruiser of the cen
trail blue, which, sailing thousands of feet
above the threatened territory, will be able
to wireless instantly any suspicious move
ment to fleets and forts below; and the
alarm spread with telephone and tele-
graph to every city, to every community,
to every crossroads settlement in the coun-
try in almost the time it took Paul Revere
to leap to his horses back and whisper the
eager word "Gop'
Though the DN-1 is nothing to compare
with the Zeppelin in size, durability or
speed, let us not forget that the Zeppelin
IS failure for the purpose for what it is
esigned-offensive warfare; and that the
$40 00 scouting dirigible is as good for pa
troll work as the million dollar monster
With European designs cut off by the
war, DN-1 was evolved after heart-break-
ing experiment, involving the rebuilding
OF the craft many times and cost treble
quadruple the price actually paid by the
government. It is our pioneer vessel of
the sky-a definite creation
Two more dirigibles are in course of
construction for the government They
will be ready in July and will be used to pa
troll the commerce lanes. Others will fol-
ow-each better than the previous and
soon will come the day when DN-1's mod
est exploit will evoke smile, but April 90,
1917, marks as definite an epoch as April
10, l775, when few enbattled farmers
with some guns that would now be consid-
cred Junk, fired the shot heard around the
world, and whose echo has just been tossed
from Russia to Berlin. AS the one marked
the beginning of our conquest of the land,
SO the other marks our supremacy of the
air.

We Must Pass the School Tax
Statements BY PensacoIa's Leading Men

With all the important happenings
Of this time Ae MAJ be in danger OF
overlooking or regarding too lightly
the most important question the peo-
pie of Pensacola will have to settle
for themselves for long time: What
shall we do about improving our Pub
lie schools?
There is no juster way of estimat-
ing a community as a fit dwelling
place for the family man than by an
examination of its schools. This is 50
emphatically the case that unless We
arrange to give some evidence Of our
interest in our public education the
undoubted attraction our little city
has for the visitor will be much more
than offset by the neglect of the
first consideration Of the home max
er, AMI hence community builder. If
we are to boast Of our city, our first
and best boast would be Of itsAschools,
and such cannot be our privilege If
we allow the present condition to ex.
list. And this condition must exist
until we open our eyes to our needs.

COST OF FLOUR.

Flour sold for $1430 a barrel, whole

from $12. A few weeks ago it was $40.
Pensaco1ans were complaining this time
last year because they were charged 81

boots of incredulity when he predicted SIS
flour is now saying almost anything.
Bakers will soon be telling you that ten
cent bread is impossible We hold no brief
for the bakers, but with prices of materials
skyrocketing, fifteen, twenty, twenty-five
cent bread is not impossible; nav, more:
with stocks SO low, there may come time
when we will have to do without bread en-
tIrcly.
BY demanding whole wheat flour. the
available wheat supply can be increased

Or adding one-third Shorts" to the flour
following the usual recipe for bread
making-is an easy reconstruction Shorts,
which cost half as much as flour are clean,
are highly nutritious, and impart deicacy
of flavor to bread that surpasses the prod

Are you aware of the very small
percentage of the graduates Of gu,
high school that are boys? It is pit
iably small; and it is the communitys
fault that it is so. And, Furthermore,
this condition will exist until we, BY
our acts, show that we think our
schools worn while. The question
for US to confront is this: care we
willing that our boys and girls lack
those opportunities and advantages
that are afforded to the children Of
other cities ?" Further, if we are
willing to impose this Handicap On
them, what sort OF an asset for Us
will this admission be?
The age that is Immediately before
us will be struggle of the efficieH,

we do less for them than afford
them every advantage that all know

CLEANUP WEEK.

Mayor Hinrichs is to be congratulated
for putting Pensacola in step with the ma
tional movement and establishing next
week as Spring Cleanup week. His proc
lamation, reproduced elsewhere in this is
sue, is the starting gun of friendly race
between our citizens to see who can do the
biggest bit towards making this spotless
town.
Let everyone rake and scrape the prem
Uses for trash and deposit the same on the
curb that the garbage carrier may convey
it to the purifying fires of the city's lnc1n-
orators. Let everyone keep his eye peeled
lin the language of the old scouting days
for suspicious signs everywhere, and re
port them to the authorities that proper
measures may be taken.
1t is team work of high order for which
the mayor is calling; and every organiza-
ton, every club, every church in the city
should lend its support to the cause.
One business man has already offered
to lend the city team to assist in the haul
assistance very necessary, lest the ac
emulation, by delay, work nuisance:
will not other public spirited citizens also
volunteer?
Not only is the city to be improved by
the removal of such obvious filth as rub
Dish, but the health officials, doubling their
watch over the sanitary ordinances, are to
wage unremitting war against the hidden
toxins of the air. Especially is their. atten-
ton invited to the screening laws. Every
fly is a menace to health, and If the
Winged Deaths make merry in our midst,
summer visitors won't be tempted to tarry
long with us or to return the following sea-
son.
The fact that Pensacola is cleaner now
than it was this time last year does not
mean that there is not much, very much, to
do. We are a long ways from perfection,
and perfection is the only thing in the
heaven above, the earth beneath, or the
waters under the earth that is worth striv-
ing for. Beginning next Monday we must
strive to attain this perfection; and when
Cleanup Week is over, we must still con-
tinue to strive. Team work and Trying
will make this model town.

SUFFRAGE AMENDMENT.

The Florida senate is to be congratulate
ed on reversing its former vote and adopt
ing resolution to submit the question of
equal suffrage to the people at the general
election of 1918. The vote of % to Z is a
sufficiently overwhelming majority
: In the lower branch of the legislature,
there is said to be strong opposition, but if
the house does not take similar action, it
will simply be putting itself on record as
being opposed to the principle of majority
rule
Whether or not women should be admit
ted to suffrage in Florida, as they are in
other parts of the country, is a question
that must be decided by the people of the
state, and it is to be. hoped that no little
group of wilful men will endeavor to
thwart right for which the constitution
makes express provision.

OFFICERS
examination HERE

James F. Skies, of Tarpon Springs,
and for several years a student of the
University of Florida, graduating IN
law in the session of 1856, is in
Pensacola this week taking the ex-
aminations for second lieutenant in
the United States army. Mr.. Skies
has had several years of military
training at the university, and is con-
fident of his success in the examina-
tions and of his final appointment as
second lieutenant in the army While
at the university, Mr.. Skies was
prominent in athletic and military,
as we'll as in social affairs, being a
member of the Pi Kappa Alpha fra
ternity.
Joe Collins, prominent young
man from Tampa, and graduate of
the Virginia Military Institute, IS
also in the city this weeking taking
the officers examinations for an ap-
pointmept in the army. Owing to the
fact that Mr.. Collins is a graduate
of a military school he will not be
required to stand any mental or mill
tary examination, and his appoint
ment is only contingent upon his
quallfylng physically.
The examinations are being held at
Fort Barrancas under the supervision
of the army officers there, and it is
understood that quite few young
men from different parts of the state
will be here this week to take the ex-
aminations to qualify for an appoint
ment as second lieutenant in the
army.

eggs are the same; butter here costs SO
cents and oleomargarine 35 cents. Syrup
is selling for so cents.
Pensacola has no market place, but it
does have very thorough and efficient

to pay higher prices
And the same combine pays very low

Terrific Gain in Deposits in Sioux City
Financial Institutions.

Sioux City, March 14.--SiouN Citys
Golfers are bulglng as they never
bulged before.
Since Dec. 81 the deposits in the SIX
national banks have increased nearly
IS, 900, 900. The exact gain in the first
two months OF 1917 in deposits in the
national banks of the city is $i,I64,-
3220. The total amount now on de-
post in the six national banks is S29,-

Statements compiled in answer to the
March call of the comptroller Of the
currency went forward to Washington

figures the story Of this sections pros
perity. The gigantic increase sur
prised even the most optimistic hnan-
ciers of the city, many of whom Zig
ured that the usual hull in business fol-
lowing Christmas would hold dowa the
money market.
Atho no statements were issued
by the state banks and others. it was
generally predicted that the increase III
deposits in the other banks was as big
as in the national banks. Conservative
estimates placed the total moneys on
deposit in all the banks at about $50
coo, goo. an increase Of approximately
sl0. 600. 900 over the total deposits last
December.
