GOOD ROADS

Uncle Sam needs good roads more than ever
before to carry on transportation.
In many instances Liberty trucks are driven
rom factories to seaports.
Material for waf work is transported between
5owns and cities by motor trucks covering hun
dreds of miles each day.
Full speed ahead is the thought in the mind
Of every man who is getting out war material
md anxious 70 win the war.
Merchants throughout the country are getting
heir supplies by motor trucks and in that way
relieving the railroads of every possible burden
To eliminate delays of the great truck trains
there must be more good roads.
When the proposal was made to relieve conges-
ton on the inadequate rail line to the naval air
station and Fort Barrancas by hauling much of
he needed material by motor truck, the condition
# the county road would not permit it.
Since then temporary repairs have been made
end it is now possible for loaded trucks to make
the trip, though the road is not equal to require
G2ents and need for speeding up the concrete road
is emphasized every day.
Our farmers have not been able to observe
advantages Of good roads the saving of time

OUR INDIVIDUAL PART

Some observers think that the most char
acteristic thing about the American soldiers in
France, something which astounds the enemy
and excites the admiration of allies, is the
capacity of the American soldiers to do indvid-
ual thinking and fighting The German fights
successfully only in mass formation in organ
lied bodies, while every American soldier has an
initiative and independence of action which gives
him remarkable efficiency in open fighting. They
are not senseless cogs, but each is an individual
working unit i'll a great fighting machine.
Every American at home should feel an in
dividual responsibility and do his her in

an American citizen who can not help win the
The Fourth Liberty Loan drive, which be-
gins September %, offers great opportunity for

WHITE ILLITERATEs

The need for strict enforcement OF compulsory
education in Florida is emphasized in recently
complied iuiteracy table covering the entire
country. The table, which includes only the
white population, of native BIRTH shows that IN
Washington Wyoming, Montana and the Dako-
tas less than one in 800 white native-born men
and women are unable to read and write. Wnen
Florida is reached-36th in the list of states
it is found that So in each 100 are illlterate
This is sad state of affairs and there is little
consolation in knowing that Florida ranks hlgn
among the Southern states. In Arkansas ma
tive-blooded white men in each 100 cannot read ;
in Georgia and Virginia, 8; Tennessee s. Ala
bama South Carolina, and Kentucky, 10; North
Carolina II; Louisiana and New Mexico, Is.
This is matter which concerns every citizen
who is interested in the future of Florida and OF
the entire South. 1t is of such Importance that
it should prompt each of us to do our part in
seeing that every boy and girl attends school
regularly so that Florida may soon occupy one
of the much-to-be-envied places monopolized
by the Northwest.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

The lawyers of Pensacola have volunteered to a
man to assist the 1916 registrants in prepar-
ing their questionnares. Each member of the
bar association has donated his services to this
important work, but further assistance is needed.
Each of the four lawyer groups will require at
least six laymen volunteers.
The response should be prompt and every man
who can devote portion of his time to the work
should report to one of the group captains this
morning so that there may be the least possible
delay in filling out the missionaries It has been
suggested that those who served so we'll on regis
tration day specially qualified for the present
duty and the committee hopes that those public
spirited men will offer their services again.
This is a fine opportunity for helpful service to
the government and to the Individual registrants
