There is beauty in the humblest home if love rules

The planting season is already well

There remain not more than a few
weeks for getting the seed into the

in days
The farmers, handicapped by short
age of seed and of fertilizer, are now
faced by lack of labor. They cannot
get the help they must have to pre-
pare the ground and provide for the
fall harvests.

They are the prime factors in the

and the problem they set is solved
now the outlook will be dark.
There is no opportunity for legis-
lation for this Immediate situation
Congress and the State Legislatures
may provide against the future. They
cannot deal with a situation already
existing. The creation of government

PATRIOTIC OFFER
BY P|NEWOOD Man

Peter Rosasco, president of the Bay
Point Mill Company, has written a
letter to President Wilson offering,
not only his own services, but also his
two motor boats, one 81 feet long and
the other 25 feet long; also seven
passenger automobile, steam tug
and several barges. Not satisfied
with that combined offer, he places at
the governments disposal the COM
pany's whole plant and shipyard. The
letter conveying such offers was as
follows:
Mr.. Rosaseo's Offer.
Pinewood, Fla, April 5, 1917.
Hon. Woodrow Wilson, President of
the United States, Washington,
D. G.
Sir-I am the owner of two motor
boats, one 81 feet long and the other

automobile, steam tug and barges

can be of use.
If need be my company's whole
plant and shipyard will be gladly
placed at your disposal, also in sup

Demand That Mardi
Gras Be Abolished

pal Church, said that he endorsed
most heartily everything said by Mr..
Philips, and added that he had wit
messed seven carnivals during his res
idence here, and each one of them
was little worse than the preceding
one. He said that it was no time now
to plan for any such event, now that
the country is in need of its manhood
for something better. at is no time
to take the lid off and let the town
go to the devil" He suggested that
any money which nigh be available
for the carnival could more appro-
priately be applied to a fund for the
relief of the American Red Cross, for
that organization could make the best
use of it.
Frank H. Henning, representing
the Pensacola Yacht Club, said that
somebody was at fault, and the real
move was to get at and eradicate
that fault. He said if the Carnival
Association was not to blame, and the
city officials were not to blame, that
left only one class, and that was the
w-abiding church folks. He left the
impression that it was up to the law
abiding people to see that any such
scenes were not repeated here.
Will Mackey repeated conversa-
ton which he had with a promilent
member of the present Carnival Asso-
citation, and said that he had been in
formed the meeting this afternoon
would be composed of soreheads and
the like" He said that the carnival
officer with whom he talked knew
nothing practically of the meeting
held in the city hall, and the move
to have another carnival was carried
before the meeting had been an
nounced.
Secretary Jas. Philips explained the
real distinction between Mardi Gras
and a carnival, such as was held here
last time, and said that he thought
the celebration was too much part
of the town to be abolished altogether.
Col. R. M. Cary, asking Mr.. Gar
field to take the chair, said that he
wanted to express his approval OF
practically every protect which had
been raised against a continuance OF
the disgraceful scenes. He said that
he had in the past materially assisted
the association; that he felt pride
in it, for the reason that he was the
third king of the carnival, and said
that things which happened here last

Mardi Gras should never be again re-
peated.
A number of speakers were heard
from, one of them being Captain
Aiken, who said that one thing must
be made clear and emphatic that the
citizenry of the place would not stand
f rorepeated insult as was the case
IN the past. He said he Glterably
opposed it.
w. C. Jones also denounced certain
occurrences of the past celebration,
and lifted his will against the con-
tinuance.

other organizations they represented
were:

Mr.. Renich, born in the United

are also his two sons. His father was
born in Luxembourg and came to this
country when a tiny boy.
Luxembourg is one of the countries
which Germany SO ruthlessly crushed

if the Remichs' weren't American
citizens, of so years standing, they
would not feel very kindly towards

undoubtedly good showing for a
