AUTOS MUST BE

Automobile owners >Se urged, in
special notice printed in The Jour
nal this morning. to register with
out fail the number of their cars,
and failure to do so will probably
result in their arrest and consequent
fine in the city court. This matter is
covered by an ordinance recently en-
acted by the board of commissioners
and after due notice, in case of reg
istration of numbers, the police will
be instructed to proceed against
those responsible.
There is no city tax against au-
tomobiles now, since an appeal taken
to the court of record has been de-
cided against the city. There is,
however, nothing to prevent the city
from compelling the registration of
automobiles, and penalty, as stated
is provided upon a repeated failure
to comply with the late ordinance.

HEARD IN NUMBERS
HELPFUL LECTURES

The talk OF the men OF the service
at Forts Pickens and Barrancas and
the navy yard is today centered upon
the coming of DR.. Harry F. Burns,
the eminent sexologist Of the Univer-
sity OF Chicago, who is making a lee
ture tour of the South under the au-
spices of the Army and Navy Y. NJ.
c. A. Through the efforts OF the local
"Y'' men, DR.. Burns was induced to
lay aside his work in the largest can
comments of the country long enough
to enable him TO visit Pensacola ami
address the soldiers and sailors here.
DR.. Burns noted lecture. Sex Life
IN Relation to Real Manhood" has
tary authorities everywher. Indeed, in
most camps attendance at his lectures
is made a military duty, SO that no
man can plead ignorance in excuse of
dissipated vigor and debauched char
acter. In his equally famous lecture,
when a Good Man Goes to War;"
Dr. Burns analyses the ethical motives
which should actuate every worthy
American soldier in the present con-
nict, and indicates the moral founda-
ton which alone can keep men clean
and true amidst the diabolic tempta-
tons overseas.
The lecture schedule DR.. Burns has
announced during his brief stay here
is sufficiently extensive to give every
man in blue and khaki an opportunity
to hear him. Yesterday evening he
spoke to the patients at the naval
base hospital, and later to the avia-
tors at the navy Y. NJ. c. A. This
afternoon the men at Fort Barrancas
are to assemble by order OF the COM
manding officer to hear him, and to-
night he will again address the men
Of the yard at the navy Y. NJ. c. A.
Saturday morning DR.. Burns addresses
the men at Fort Pickens and Battery
Worth, and in the evening speaks
gain at the Barrancas Y. -. c.. A.
and the navy yard. His engagement
concludes Sunday with morning ad-
dress at the new Pickens Y. NJ c. -,
and in the evening at the navy yard
Y. NJ. c. A.
DIR. Burns is a man Of broad expert.
ence, scientific attainment, and a COM
handing personality. His coming to
Pensacola will mean much for the
forces making for unclean manhood
among the men Of the service here.

jumped up on Warren's knee. AnG
