NUMBER PENSAcOLIANS TO
ATTEND CONFERENCE HELD IN
MOBILE THIS WEEK.

Quite a number of Pensacolians left
yesterday and will be leaving today to
attend the annual meeting of the Ala
bama Conference, Methodist Episco-
pal Church, South, which eonvenes in
Mobile this morning at 9 o'clock, in
the handsome Government Street
Methodist church, which has just been
completed. Bishop J. H. Mccoy, of
Birmingham, will preside.
The conference viii remain in Ses-
sion until Monday morning when APP
pointmets will be announced, assigning
each minister to his work for the next
conference year and it will be interest
ing to recall that the time limit of
four years for any minister to servo
one church successfully is no longer
in effect.
Rev. 1. W. Chalter, of the First
Methodist church, Rev. Herbert w.
Rice Of the Gadsden Street Methodist
church and Mr.. w. c. Mackey, lay
member of the conference, are prosli-
nent among those attending from Pen
sacola. With his reports to the con-
ference, Rev. 1. w. Chalker carries
with him one of the best final reports
in the history of the First Methodist
church. The members of this church
are to be highly congratulated on the
splendid manner in which they have
so successfully gone cover the top in
everything during the past fiscal year.
Mr.. Chaiker has only served the
church one year and during that time
has won a very warm place in the
hearts of his congregation who have
expressed the hope that he may be
reappointed to serve their church for
the ensuing year.
Another Pensacola pastor whose re-
appointment is earnestly desired by
his congregation is Rev Herbert w.
Rice, who during the past three years
as minister at the Gadsden Street
Methodist Church has endeared him
self to the membership Of that church.

BUSINESS ROOM
FOR The i. 5. 1.
By FREREDfck M. KERRY.
N. e "A. Staff CORRESPONDENT.

New York, Nov. 26.-"Talk OF in
dustrial depression as a result OF peace
is utterly unfounded. The idea that
cessation Of war work and return OF
soldiers win flood the market with
labor and result in panic conditions is
foolish"
This summarizes the views Of John
Moody, president OF Moody's Investors
Service and editor OF Moody's Manual
OF Railroads and Corporation Securi-
ties.
81 was in London when the war
broke out In 1914" he said. Everybody
then was saying that the outbreak
would mean depression and panic in
the United States. I predicted then
that, after a short preiod of readust-
ment, there would be a great boom
in business in the Unite States. That
is exactly what happened. Our bal
ance OF trade grew to enormous pro-
portions, gold began to flow to the
United States and we absorbed an
enormous quantity OF u. S. securities
that had been held abroad and which
were returned to US in part payment
for goods needed abroad.
Gradually, we will pass from a war
to peace basis. We will begin filling
the demand from devastated Europe.
Our ships will gradually be withdrawn
from war use. It will take perhaps a
year to get our men home-and turn
ed to foreign trade. The men in our
armies will be demobilized gradually.
There will be floated, perhaps, two
more Liberty Loans-smaller in
amount but large in the aggregate-to
finance the operations of bringing our
men back and readjusting commercial
1ations.
1--WE do not need to fear any whole
sale upset. I believe that there will
be some sort of International control
either through the new league of ma
tons Or some agency of it-by which
international credit will be stabilized
and international trade relationships
controlled.
This war has been a war to end
wars. When it is over the world will
be freed from what was an ever-pres-
ent menace Of war. Credit is simply
confidence; confidence in the future
OF the man or institution to whom
credit is granted. The removal of the
menace OF war will be a tonic to
credit"

come exceedingly abundant and de-
structlye. Rats migrate from places
where food is scarce to places where
1t is plentiful. Abundant food In the
new locality causes abnormal repro
duction, the effect of which In a short
time Is that of sudden invasion by
vast horde of rats.
Other movements of rats are local
and seasonal in occurrence. An exo-
dus takes place every spring from
cities and villages to river banks and
farmsteads In the surrounding coun-
try, and is followed by return mi
grafton in the autumn. This phenom-
enon, which has been observed almost
everywhere, explains why rats are
more abundant In towns during the
cold season and In larger numbers in
the country during the summer.
That all rodent destruction is prop
erly the business of the community,
and that this must bearecognized be-

United States Department Of AgrIcul-

Cooperate In Purchase Of Va.
rIous Farm Outfits.

Work which Is generally done In
some part of the country with the aid
of machines that greatly increase the
efficiency of the man employed is still
largely done by hand In other parts,
Machinery for the most of the work In
connection with preparing and filling
the soil is available in many sizes, and

seen working In the same field ON OPP

cult to handle than the small ones for
the same work.
Machinery Profitable.
Where the farm Is large, and IL is
not possible to procure sufficient labor,
specialists Of the United States de-
partment of agriculture say 1t is more
profitable, as well as patriotic, to in
stall machinery which will enable the
operator TO plant, cultivate, and har-
vest full acreage of the crops best
suited TO his land and the needs of
his country, than to let some of the
land lie idle, or, at best, have 1t pre-
pared and worked poorly, and the
crops out Of season.
In Farmers Bulletin $50, "Better
Use of Man Labor on the Farm" Just
issued by the United States depart
ment of agriculture. photographs Of
actual farm scenes are printed to
show that In many cases work can be
doubled by the use OF larger lmple-
ments and greater motive power, and
sometimes the gain is considerably
more than that. If the nature of the
work and the machinery for doing 1t
are such that the best implements
win increase the efficiency of the
worker by only so or rs per cent their
use may make possible an increase in
acreage by Just that amount and at
least will enable the farmer TO do
his work in less time and allow him to
