More than half the nner who are chronic grumblers over their prospects have acquired the habit of viewing them through the bottom of whiskey or beer glasses. No one should ex- pct to get clear or hopeful views through turbid fluids, for these not only cloud the g.ass but distort the vision. Fool man is the creator of nine-tenths of his woes, and is too dense to realize it. It would only re- quire the removal of the preventfble trouble and the checking of preventi- ble diseases to make life approac ch something heavenly. They do not re- form because they will not brook interference, or permit an invasion of their rights. Did you ever?

ft is an unwritten law that incom- petence fore-runs disaster. The Fate which is supposed to harrass us is simply inefciency. People lose their lives every day beca use of the ineffi- ciency of others. God never made a fool-rnan does that. The old adage that the good die young is based upon the fact that innocence and infancy are closely allied. The effects of mans inconsistency are attributed to every cause, but the right one. The clock keeps good time, but man sel- dom does wavering life, a wob- bling mind and the speediest and saf- est machinery can produce direfu1 re- suits. The fault is not with the per fectly operating machines but with the huctuating and uncertain mortal operating them. The negligence or fool hardness which produce victims on the water, the rail, or the road was only foreordained in the sense that peril lies in imperfection. The Lord laments the death of His people who die from lack of knowledge. The victims of lack of knowledge form a host of each days dead, and are likely to until the end of time.

Many a man has acquired riches


 who never learned how to accumulate money. There are such things purity and honor, loyalty to truth con Cepts and to self, which produce soul enrichment. There is possible an ex- altation of the spirit and the mind not to be acquired i'll the marts of men. What are we doing with the ta-ents God has given us? We can do noth- ing with the talents He has given ether men. We are equipped to in- vestigate the universe, to acquire i'm mortal power. The man who loves to count his blessings has the man who loves to count his money beaten in the race of life. To be conscious of good is of more consequence than to be conscious of gold-and it's brief material advantages. Too many of us do not seem to grasp the fact that the greatest power known to man is the spirit-that which is back of mind and all that mortal mind is capable of producing. When God produced a man He endowed him with power not only to do all that he has done. but to make of earth a paradise. From lack of faith man remains a ravenous beast when he should be son of God.

It is of immense value in this word to know when to stop. Knowing when to stop talking represents the differ epce between a successful preacher and nerve wracker. a popular ora

 Some people give too much time to deploring their mistakes. What we all need do with mistakes is to cor rect them; and if they are of such a nature they cannot be corrected to ever guard against a recurrence.

Ionorance is one of tl7e thirteen

Ignorance is one of the thirteen things every man should be thankful for, and yet half the people never wake up to the fact that it is often a convenience not 2 source of mortifca
 ton. The fact that we arc ignorant of the faults and trials of neighbors and friends lends to our enjoyment of life and our feelings of security. It is never less than a blessing to be ig5 norant of everything which in any way would mar our comfort or con tentment, unless it is something which might imperil our defense and pro- lection. How ignorance he-ps a wit ness by in the courts, and a scoundrel out. It was doubtless a lawyer who first discovered how completely 'I don't remember" could cast a hazy atmosphere over a questionable case. and confuse jury. When ignorance IS bliss. surely it is folly to be wise. It would be misery to most of us to have our future revealed. God jim ited knowledge in various directions to make peace of mind possible. No person can evet get free of ignorance and those who disclaim it are among the densest of morta1s

THE MAN WHO TALKS

Affability is an asset in life and fortunate indeed is the person to whom it is natural It has a warmth and attractiveness not known to -po- iiteness; and is the quality that makes a man a good mixer. It is in human contact that we get our thrills of ex- perience; and affability makes the worst Of these contacts bearable and even profitable. As common and use-- fui as human contact is there are lots of people swelling with -SeA-esteem who do not know. how to make them except along special lines. For fn- stance, the egotist and the srouch never mean the contact shall be agree able to certain people or classes: and they seem to be wholly unaware they cannot create disagreeable conditions without themselves feeling to some extent the offensive atmosphere of their own work. The affable. person is usually the successful person: and the snar.eyows are the ones who do not consider life worth living. Affa- bility and the big. head never reside in the same -person-they do not know one another.

Great was the need; yet, in 1864, after an amendment to the charter granted by the Legislature had been formally accepted by the citizens, and after contracts had been submitted for the construction of a reservoir at Fair view and for street mains at a cos of $1 1S5, 900, opposition to the proposed site was so great that a special city meeting was called to rescind the vote.

past two years in entering the parade
and doing very valuable part to-
wards makings its success.
The second prize was captured by
Miss Media Taylor, the young daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. W. E. Taylor, and
was not only most artistic in its ex-
ecution, but very clever in its con-
ception. Expressing the sentiment of
the times, throughout the entire
scheme, the call of patriotism had
been developed.
Miss Taylor, who drove the car,
represented President Woodrow Viii

hat and the ever conspicuous glasses
of the president, the broad scarf of
red she wore as decoration being the
only note of color in her costume.
Miss Louise Ellis wore the uniform

beautiful and perfect representation
of patriotism.

PRIZE WINNING CARS
BEAUTIFULLY DECORATED

The first two prize winning cars in
the automobile parade of Monday
have been the subject Of great deal
of flattering comment, the first prize
having been won by Miss Lonnie Lam
drum, home demonstration agent for
Escambia county, the car having as
its motif of decoration the work of
the canning and poultry clubs, the
idea having been very cleverly car
ried out.
Using the canning club colors as a
basis, the car was treated in tones of
dark and light blue, with the Stars
and Stripes lavishly used against the
blue background creating an effect
striking and beautiful. Streamers
were carried from the flags to the
corners Of the automobile and were
used elsewhere to complete the eff
fective decorations.
On the hood of the car an immense
white rooster, with bright red comb,
was used as the insignia Of the Poul-
try Club, and on either side were the
names Canning Club" and Poultry
Club"
Miss Landrum, who drove the car,
was in the white uniform of the coun-
ty demonstrator, and with her were
number of the canning club girls
and boys of the poultry clubs, the
girls dressed in blue with white
aprons and caps, with the insignia of
their club, and the boys also wearing
their club colors.
Not only was the manner of dec
grafton of Miss Landrum's car a mat

THE QUEENS LUNCHEON AT
THE SAN CARLOS.

place of each guest, terminating in
gay carnivsl figurines, dressed in the
green, yellow and purple of the Pen
sacola Mardi Gras, boys dressed as
testers at each girls place, and for
the men, golden haired bisque dolls
in bright carnival gowns.
Yellow balloons and other carnival
favors were used with charming eff
feet on the table.
Miss Durham was lovely in white
Georgette crepe and taffeta, worn
with big white hat, most Becoming to
her blonde beauty.
Miss Kitten Merritt was in blue
taffeta, worn with smart black straw
sailor; Miss Frances Brent wore grey
Georgette crepe, with hat Of grey and
old rose; Miss Fisher was in blue
satin worn with white spring hat;

Bringing to a close the carnival
celebration in Pensacola, the corona
ton ceremonies at the Keyser audi
forum last evening were attended by
hundreds of the loyal subjects of King
Priscus XVIII and visitors to the city.
At an early hour the auditorium
was crowded with interested spesta
tors, the king and his queen arriving
shortly after nine o'clock, attended
by the knights and maids Of the court,
and four tiny pages.
King Priscus was in royal blue vel
vet with slashings Of white and sill
yer satin, worn with ermine trimmed
velvet cloak.
The queen was gowned in white
and silver, the maids in charming
evening gowns, and the knights in
rich roctumes, BETTING their rank,
the court ladies and knights compris-
ing Miss Frances Brent, Miss Eliza
beth Fisher, Miss Carrie Blount, Miss
Kitten Merritt, and Messrs. Otis
Clements, George Owen, Albert
Quina and 1t. William Massek.
When King Priscus chose Miss
Jane Durham as his queen, he added
but one more to the many honors
which she has been shown this win
ter, and no lovelier young queen has
ever shared the honors of the Mardi
Gras carnival.

Her white dress fluttering round a

Sometimes / almost put my hand upon
her apron strings
Then. just before my fingers close,
she's gone again like wings.
A sudden laugh, q scrape of song, q
