This picture shows one of the great
locks in the Panama canal, with a
map of the canals route across the
isthmus.
The more northern and western end
is the Atlantic end. peculiar fea-
ture being that the Pacific end of the
canal is further east than the At
lantic end, due to the double curve in
the isthmus.
The picture shows the operation of
Gatun locks, looking south from the
forebay, showing the lower guard
gates closed, and the lower lock in
the distance. German agents have
been reported conspiring in Colombia
and in various Central American re-
publics for an attack against the
United States through an attempt to
wreck the canal and so prevent the
United States navy from using the
great waterway.

one of the strongest and most effec-
tive sermons yet offered by the
evangelist.
AS he has been preaching a week
in the city, with the Sunday night
sermon, it Is expected he will extend
invitations to converts at tomorrow
nights services. A friend stated that
Gypsy Smith has about come to the
conclusion that a great many Of the
men and women who have been hear
ing his sermons have about reached
the conclusion that it is time for
them to get right without further de-
lay.
Explains the Meeting Expense.
DIR. D. P. Slaughter, of the First
Methodist Church. last night address
ed the vast audience for a short time
on the financial state of the present
movement. He stated that it cost
churchmen of the city the sum of
$4,000 to have the tabernacle erected,
but that they had underwritten that
expense, and that 1t was expected
that thsy would be repaid Explain
ing another matter, he said that
Gypsy Smiths party members were
being paid $25 a week and entertain
ment while IN Pensacola, and said
that the Offering toward the latter
part of the service would be the COM
pensation Of the evangelist. He made
the statement, he asserted, to let the
public know the exact truth of the
movement, and for the purpose of al
laying any reports and criticisms to
the contrary.
Large Audience Sunday.
Extra preparations are being made
to handle the largest number Sunday

sacola. A week ago, when the weather
was too cold to make use of the tab
ernacle, services were transferred to
the First Methodist Church building
and hundreds of people were turned
away because the church would not
accommodate them. It is shown that
hundreds of invitations have beer
sent to out-of-town friends by Pensa-
cola supporters of the movement, and
the strangers are urged to come tc

they are playing as hard as ever and
some good games are expected to be
witnessed this afternoon.

NEW CLASS OF

A new class in aeronautics is grad
ually assembling at the aeronautic
station and the members will soon
enter instruction work. About eight
members will constitute the class, in
stead of the twelve in the December

With the increased number of ma
chimes and greater facilities the school
is now able to handle large classes,
as the corps of instructors has also
been increased.

DELIGHTS Of CITY
PLEASE TOURISTS

Stressing the need for publicity for
Pensacola's charms, C. H. Rudge, a
prominent business man, of Lincoln,
Nebraska, stated last night that in
stead of spending day as he intend
ed, he and party of seven, would
spent a week.
Commenting on the golf course at
the Country Club, Mr.. Ridge said
that it compared with tlA links at
French Lick, or any other great re-
sort, and were better than some on
the gulf coast. Of the hotel, he had
greatest praise, saying that it equal
ed that of any big city in the coun-
try.
"The first view" said Mr.. Rudge,
causes lasting impression, and you
can imagine my sentiments when
turning the corner at Wright street, l
looked down Palafox and saw that
magnificent parkway right in the
middle of town. l was delighted at
once, it looked like some famous court
in PARISH or other European city. My
stay since has been equally delight
full, and every member of the party
agrees with me.
Il am firmly convinced that Pensa
cola could not take care of the visitors
if people up north knew what could
be found here"
