Alien Registration
Goes Forward Slowly

Registration of alien enemies went
forward slowly at the police station
yesterday, but few having called and
attended to this very important duty.
Capt L. J. Anderson, in addition to
his duties in the city health depart
ment. remained at the station practic
ally all day, remaining in the clerk S
office TO receive the reports of the
sanitary inspectors who are required
to hand in daily statements to him.
But two more days remain for the reg
istration, and all concerned should
see to it that they give the matter the
attention il requires.

Closing Day of Campaign
of the Army-Navy Activities
Committee to Raise $4,000

Today marks the closing of the
campaign of the Army and Navy
Life Activities Committee to raise
$4,000 with which to continue the
work of entertaining the men of the
service stationed here.
Much success has attended the
efforts of the solicitors, and it is
confidently predicted that if the same
response is met today, as has so far
characterized the drive, there is no
doubt but that When the list of sub
scribers closes tonight the entire
amount will be in hand.
This is the last day on which Pen
sacolians must decide whether or not
this important work is to be contin-
ued in the city. Practically every
citizen Is acquainted with it. Some
branch of it has affected nearly every
civic activity.
Through its various committees
the organization has come in con-
tact with virtually every organiza-
ton in Pensacola. It's dances have
formed an attraction for the men OF
the service and civilians for nearly
five months. Twice each week local
artists have, without the slightest
compensation, given their time and
talent to entertaining the men at the
air STATION ana 1OrLS.
Through its operation with the Red
Cross and the Y. M. C. A, a club
room has been established in Pensa-
cola for the men, and has been fur
nished with books and magazines
Under its auspices FFrench classes
are conducted awice each week at
the forts and air station, instruction
being given by the best local
teachers
Once each week a church social is
given by some of tie local churches
These arrangements are made
through the religious committee of
the activities organization.
Once each week a party of motor
lists from the city goes to the army
and navy hospitals and take the con-
valescent patients for a drive. and
afterward to the home of some mem
Der, where they are served refresh
ments. This work is ore of the most
important done by the women's COM
mittee.
In addition to these routine activ-
tiles. football games and athletic
contests have been arranged. Public
entertainments, such as the Christ
mas festival, have been given for the
men. A church directory and a guide
book to the city have begn prepared
and their publication is dependent
upon the success of the campaign for
funds.
This cannot be done unless there
is money to do it with All of the
work must stop cnless the people of
Pensacola support it. Every cent OF
the money raised will be spent here
as not even the salary of the secre-
tary. the only paid official OF the
organization, is taken out of the Local
fund, but is paid by the War and
Navy Departments Commission.
The campaign for funds closes to
night, and upon the support given
today depends the continuance of the
work IN Pensacola.
