MANY ATTEND THE
HIGH SCHOOL PICNIC
HELDAT gonzalez.

Despite the steady downpour of
rain, a large number of farmers from
various parts of the county gather
ed yesterday morning in the agricul-
tural school at Gonzalez, to discuss
the formation, of truck growers as
ISOLATION, and to hear talks by eX-
perts on various problems connected
with wartime farming.
At the time when the meeting was
scheduled to occur, the storm was
at it's heighth, and it was decided
to hold an informal meeting in the
school building for a general discus
sion. In this way, many phases of
the matter could be discussed to ad-
vantage which could not have been
done had the original program been
started at once.
Much enthusiasm was displayed,
for only those who were keenly in
terested in the topic braved the tor
rents of rain to attend the meeting.
After much discussion those attend
ing the meeting were invited by the
ladies of Gonzalez to a basket dim
| ner which they had prepared, and
which was served in the school build
ing, it being too wet to have dinner
in the grove.
After dinner the meeting was call
ed to order, with Superintendent of
| fublic Instruction A. S. Edwards act
| ing as chairman. Two committees
were Immediately appointed to make
| nominations and arrange organiza-
! ton for a local organization, and a
| county organization.
| Shortly afterward the local organ
ization committee reported with the
result that A. S. Edwards was elect
| ed president, Chales Diaz, vice pres
ident, and A. S. Abortion, princi-
! pal of the agricultural school, secre-
tary and treasurer.
Before the other committee report
ed the program was taken up, and
Division Agent Jenkins made a short
tall on the work of the agents, and
general discussion of farming con-
ditions. Mr.. Jenkins was followed by
William James, industrial agent of
the L. &. N, who had as his subject
| Fall Crops and Poultry" market
ing" was the subject of an interest
ing discussion by Sam Westbrook, of
the l.. & n.
The following program was carried
out:

LADY IS STRUCK
BY AUTOMOBILE
ON PALAFOX ST.

A we'll known lady, residing on
East DeSoto street, was knocked
down near the intersection of Garden
and Palafox streets, at 1890 o'clock
yesrSrday, by an automobile driven
by Manager Hamilton, of the Mer-
chants hotel. The police investiga-
ton failed to learn that it was the
fault of the auto driver, and there
was no arrest made in the case. The
lady was slightly injured, but was
able to board an East Hill car and
go to her home.
This accident, the police say,
proves the value of the crossing lines
at the intersection named. 1t is held
that the victim of this accident was
from 80 to 40 fee south of The indi-
Gated crossing, and when Mr.. Ham
ilton's car rounded the corner, an
auto standing on the west side of
Palafox street near the corner, OBJ
scured his vision, and the accident
occurred.

French City of Rennes
Cuts Down Cost of Living

Rennes, July 13.-Living is said to
be cheaper at the present time in
Rennes than in any other large town
in France. The people of Rennes at
tribute to the executive ability of the
municipal government. There has
been, perhaps, less talk and more &C
ton here than in any other part of
France during the war. Mayor Jan
vier is a man of action-a good rep
resentative of the class of public men
coming to the front in France, men
who are capable of taking questions
of public interest out of politics and
of applying practical methods to
them.
NJ. Janvier, who was formerly day
laborer. becoming later a building
contractor, then mayor of Rennes,
found a deficit in the city treasury of
100000 francs when he took office
in 1908. At the end of 1909 he had
without borrowing or imposing any
new taxes, made good the deficit and
accumulated a surplus of more than
100000 francs. In 1915, the excess
of receipts over current expenses of
the town had reached 100000 francs
q year.
This result shows what politics
costs in the administration of towns
or departments" is the comment Of
the advocates of regional administra-
ton in which the political power of
Paris would diminished.
NJ. Janvier himself attributes the
result to the fact that, having ban
ished politics from his administration,
he has been able to secure the CO.
operation of all the members of the
municipal council, irrespective of po-
litical complexion, and also the CO.
operation of all the citizens of Rennes,
which he considers the most i'm
portant of all. He asserts that Ger
many has no monopoly of the secret
of organization. The national or
ganizatin for time of war, he says,
is to increase production. He obtained
forty tons of potatoes by municipal
gardening of uncultivated land be-
longig to the town last year. Be-
sides furnishing free potatoes to the
different canteens of the town and
remarkably cheap potatoes to the rest
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1917-07-14

of the population, the city earned
1000 francs profit from the venture.
Meat went up to excessive prices
in December last year in Rennes. NJ.
Janvier attributed the rise to eX-
cessive retail profits. He placed a
limit upon the retail price of meat.
The butchers closed their shops in
protest. NJ. Janvier opened a NUM-
cipal meat market, and sold the diff
ferent qualities of meat at from 8
to II cents a pound less than butch
ers had done and made money for the
city. This enterprise was so success
full that the number of municipal meat
markets had to be increased.

Mr.. Ablebodied Bachelor
Your Chance to Serve is One in Four

New York, July 12.-It's a one to
four shot that you will be selected
for service IN the new national army.
That is, one man out of every four
American citizens, between 81 and
81, with no relatives wholly Deepen
dent, will be called to the front for
service, in the war department draw
ing which stars probably on Mon
day.
National registration day, June s,
the nation registered 9,659,3782 men.
But 1,239,855 of these are unnatural
lied foreigners from countries other
than Germany, and 111,823 are Ger
man subjects. All are exempt. This
brings the available men down to
8,307,694.
How many will be excused because
they have wife, children, mother
father, sister or brother, wholly de-
pendent upon them? 1t is possible to
approximate this from census Zig
ures. The last census showed IS per
cent of the men in the age group 20
to-24 were unmarried. In the group
25-to-29, AZ per cent were single This
would indicate that only Ais per cent
of all the men registered have wives
and families.

But some of these married men
have incomes which make their fam
lilies independent. This, however, is
a small group. Most married men
and most other men-have to work
for a living.
To this group, too, must be added
the single men with dependent faith
ers, mothers, brothers or sisters. Just
how large this group is, is one of the
delicate exemption questions.
Responsible officials are inclined to
make a liberal allowance for those
with dependents. If to the AIS per
cent of married men be added =
group who have other dependents the
number of men exempt because of
dependents will be close to so per
cent or 4,153,847 men. This leaves
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1917-07-14

the same number available.
But of these 4,153,847 men $50 out
of every thousand will have to be
eliminated because of physical de-
fects. This means approximately l.
038,25O men must be rejected because
they are unfit to serve.
This leaves 3,115,597 fit young men
waiting to see whether they will be
selected for service. Out of this three
million must come the first army.
It is now announced the war de-
partment has decided to select 6S7,
900 men for service in the first draw
ing.
This means about one man in four
of those available will be called ia
the colors September first to prepare
for their work abroad.
