The car shortage, while not corrected, is

of the entire country, the scientific admin

Nellborn points out that the early vegeta-

GOVERNMENT PURCHASE OF
ROLLING STOCK.

If it is true that the steel makers have
offered the government lower prices on
100000 freight cars than the current mar
ket quotations, the government should, as
The Manufacturers Record says, purchase
this rolling stock, and, of course, necessary
engines, in order to relieve the car shortage
of this country.
AS these are not normal times, the obvi-
Gus objections can not be urged; if the
government can build ships for an emer-
genCy, surely it can purchase railway cars
for the same purpose.
Amounting to 145000 the car shortage
on May 1 again broke all records. In few
weeks the government will have to move
$4,000 men, with their equipment-the
supplying of ten unproductive cities of
$4,000 each. Right now the railways are
being taxed to haul the construction
material.
These 100000 men will later havc - re
moved to the seaboard, and others will have
To be moved to take their place.
Not now the time for quibbling about
government ownership and government
control and government assistance-the
only question is how best to get out OF a
bad difficulty.

WHAT GERMANS ARE FIGHTING
FOR

ForenniC afflatus is a fearsome thing.
and we know after painful experience that
congressman when under it's spell are not
always to he depended upon for accuracy.
IT IS with certain amount Of reservation,
therefore, that we must take the declara-
ton in the German reichstag that the iron
cross is become a iol,e-that in truth the
:a;n Of decorations is as heavy in the rear
as the rain Of bullets at the front.
Nevertheless there must be some foun-
dation for the statement. for it is the ten
dcncy OF all decorations to be cheapened-
a development that is usually one of the
penalties Of peace, when pull displaces
merit, and that the process should be so far
FASTENED in Germany can not but be con
sidered significant,
Continually claiming victory, the kaiser
naturally must have hordes of heroes to
keep him in countenance, and whether he
hangs his tons of iron crosses on men at
the front or on raw troops who never were
under fire, as charged in the reichstag, is
mmaterial
Iron crosses are the only thing that keep
ZIP Germany's hope, They are become a
nltional tonic, like other preparations Of
iron. For that war-tired feeling, take one
iron cross. Privation, suffering and dan
ger are like the pepper with which Addison
used to infame his throat, that the draught
Of wine afterwards might be all the more
delicious, Even so the people will get an
iron cross, and as all are suffering, it is fit
that all should get the worthless Junk for
which they bartered their birthrights while
the rest Of the world being free, is fighting
| ior greater freedom.

REV. IR. DICKINSON
PRAISES CHRISTIAN CHURCH

Among the many good institutions
Of Pensacola there is none more de-
serving of favorable comment than
the First Christian church. They
are not strong in numbers TOR in
financial ability, but they have made
themselves felt as a power for good
in the community. A spirit of sin
cere conservation to God and the
church pervades the whole body so
that it is felt by all who are priv
iieged to meet and mingle with them.
Though without a pastor for some
months yet they have maintained
their regular services every Sunday
morning.
Their Sunday School is one of the
best in the city and we'll attended.
The Wednesday night prayer meet
ing is a good place to go to, conducted
by various members of the church
appointed a week ahead, good inter
est is taken and a large percentage
of the church attend. They have
built a church edifice that is a model
of neatness and adaptibility.
An honor to them and an orna-
ment to the city. Like most new
church organizations they are strug.
Cling with burden OF DEBT but they
are doing this manfully and hope
fully.
When there has been any good in
| terdenominational work going on
such as the Gypsie Smith meetings
or State or National Sunday Schoo
or temperance work, the rmsu Christ
ian church could always be depend
ed upon to do its full share, and dc
! it we'll.
For some weeks their pulpit ha:
been very acceptablv filled BY Chas
w. Dickinson Of the Friends church
! Brother Dickinson will preach hi
last sermon here Sunday morning
as he leaves on the 18th for a worl
in his own connection in North Car
| olna.
A new pastor Of ability and prom
fnence is expected soon. Possibly
| by Sunday the 18th to preach a few
trial sermons, and for mutual &C
quaintance and permanent arrange
ments.
Positive information concerning t
arrival and installation of a paste
will be given through the news
papers at earlist possible date

Tomorrow Ushers In 1OO,OOOth
Week of the Christian Fro

Tomorrow will be the one-hundred-
thousandth 10o.O00th) Sunday of
the Christian era.
Although Sunday will be the first
day of the 1OO,000th week, however,
it will not be the 100,OO0th Christian
festival of the Sabbath.
The ambiguity is due to doubt
about the year A. D, as to whether
or not it was leap year.
1t is usual to regard every year
since year 1. which is multiple of
4. except 1900 and 1900, as a leap
year. For reckoning of past years,
leap years have been regarded as
