l.. w. Hardy, president and general
manager of the Molino Fair. urges the
women of Fscambia County TO enter
for the premiums in the pantry ex-
hibits at the County Fair
The premium, which is $500, is
well worth working for" said Mr.
Hardy yesterday but it is not alone
its cash value. but also the fact that
the women will be aiding the county
very materially in making such an ex-
hibit as will be a credit 40 the state
when displayed at the Jacksonville
fair. which should appeal to them.
We want every woman in Escam-
bia county to send in her jams and
jeuuies, her pickles and preserves of
every kind, her butter and eggs, and
the various products of the patry
With their help we hope TO make a fine
display. which will add much to the
county exhibit which we will send to
the state fair in Jacksonville.
I'VE also wish to remind the mem
bers of the Boys Corn and Pig Clubs
and the Girls Canning and Poultry
Clubs, that they are expected to do a
part in making the fair a success
These boys and girls have done some
splendid work, and the results which
they have accomplished should be Civ

ENFORCEMENT OF eovERNMsNT
ORDER TO BE MORE DRASTIC
: : THAN IN PAST, 1T is NOW AN
NouNcED.


Lightless nights on a more drastic
scale than ever, will be enforced in
Pensacola, in common with every COM
munity in the United States served
with electric light, beginning next Mon
day night, and it is said that the or
ders will be even more widespread and
more effective in saving OF fuel than
ever. Instead of one lightless night as
before during the enforcement OF the
lightless night order, there will be two.
These will be on Mondays and Tuesdays
Only street lights which will be abso-
lutely necessary will be allowed, and
even these cannot be wed or turned on
until after sunset.
Cluster lights in parks and elsewhere
must be reduced to a number absolute
ly necessary and essential for safety
alone, the number, it is said, to be de-
cided upon by local fuel administrators,
who in Pensacola is Wilmer Hayward.
Lights in shop windows will not be
permitted before sunset, and on Mon
day and Tuesday nights. none at all
will be permitted. Under the former
order lights would not be permitted in
certain places of business, and num-
Der of the city's pool rooms would
close. In fact any and all non- essential
all-night or half-night places, will have
to either use candles. il is said, or re-
main dark for the nights. 1t was re-
ported that following the recent flight
less night enforcement, pool rooms,
which were required to close early on
lightless nights, would cater to players
and loungers the following night until
daylight This will not be countenanc-
ed, it is stated.
Violations OF the Lever act are stiff
Fines to the extent OF 5000 may be i'm
posed, with indeterminate terms OF i'm
The government has CIV
en- notice through the press and official
bulletin of the proposed enforcement OF
the renewed order, and the Consumers
of electricity must promptly and abso-
lutely comply. Thoughtless persons.
during the last enforcement Of the or
der, would turn on lights on the dark
ened nights, and this was passed over
because of such thoughtlessness For
getfulness and carelessness, however,
are inexcusable, and the government
will not countenance it.

said he would do. would be carried Out
to the lefter, The agreement was
sh erf$ tAerzzfter prcseated to each ol
fine representatives nf saloon interests
present. and they individually and for
their firms, attached their respective
signatures.
This is one of the direct results of
the visit here at this time OF Col Hatch,
who leaves today, returning to Wash
ington. Just what brought about such
a complete cooperation in this respect
-on the part OF the saloon men, was not
definitely given out last night, but
the report is that "a ten u1mile dry zone
was in prospect, and would likely be
enforced at once. This would have put
the saloons out OF business immedi-
ately After some further considera-
tion however it was determined on the
above. and this ended the conference,
and did what years of legislation had
endeavored to accomplish. to effectually
lay plans for putting down the sale Of
liquor here. x
