Our friend "Billie" Davis from Pa
nola presented us with a peck of
homegrown rice last week which is
appreciated. We have another friend
who has promised some home-cured
side meat to go with the rice. So af.
ter all, an editor can have a square
meal occasionally.
Again we ask council to tell lis
what the ornaments that are sup
posed to be drinking fountains
good for. They are not working, and
haven't worked in about a year. So
IT they are not to be used, we move to
pull them up and sell them for Junk.
We must have public drinking places.
We call special attention of city
council to the boys and men that hang
around town and do practically moth
ing, while others who have the right
spirit are working and doing every
thing they can to help our govern
ment. There are great big, strong
fellows that sit around and refuse to
DO anything but drive an automobile,
and then charge "horse" price for
that. Uncle Sam will draft those be-
tween the ages of 21 and 81 for his
army, and city council should draft
the ones that Uncle Sam fails to get,
to the streets. We should all work
now, and if you haven't got the volun-
tary energy, then we hope the Off
Gals will conscript you.

ADJUSTMENTS

given Douglas Fairbanks for the dis
play of his athletic skill and the ex-
erclse of his great artistic ability,
Tins is considered his best work thus
far, either on the stage or screen.
One of the most terrific fights ever
seen on a screen takes place in the
palace, in which Fairbanks battles
with a half dozen men seeking his
life. Vases and statuary are de-
molished, beautiful draperies ruined
and costly furniture wrecked.
Frank Campeau, who played an
innport"nt part with Fairbanks in
"The Man from Painted Post. has
prominent role in mis- film.
The story was written expressly
for Fairbanks by Anita Loos and
John Emerson. Mr.. Emerson direct
ed the picture.
Preaching for the Moon" is an ex-
traordinary production, for while it
bristles with melodrama. interspers-

story and expounds a philosophical
theory that success is really the at
tainment of happiness. which is dis
closed in a clear and forceful man
ner.

NAVY RECRUITS IN
CIVILIAN CLOTHES

Recruits for the navy in large
numbers who arrived within the past
several days, were in civilian cloth
ing with the exception of the navy
turban, and much speculation was
INDUCED in by some Pensacolians
yesterday when they found groups
of the newcomers on the streets.
Some were of the opinion that some
foreign warship was in port and the
sailors were ashore on liberty in
civilian clothing, not being allowed to
wear uniforms in foreign port.
1t is explained that the recruits
are being sent south as rapidly as
possible, because of tie extremely
cold weather in the north, which
makes training and outdoor eXercis-
ing out Of the question.

Montgomery, June 15.-tSpecial.) )-The magic of tho word submission seems to have disappeared from discussions of the federal prohibition amendment dur ing the past week. Although each coun- ty democratic executive committee has the power to submit the question of ratification to the voters of their coun- ties and to adopt resolution instruct ing the representatives elected from the counties to vote as the people dictate on the subject, no'committees seem anxious to make the first move.
 When the state democratic executive committee declined to submit the ques- ticn to vote of all the people in the state il was thought that many counties would take upon themselves the responss- bility for obtaining the views of the democrats. It was stated that the com mittees of several counties had already planned to instruct the representatives and the chairman of the state executive committe Ilainly declared on the floor If the meeting that the state committee had no right to tell a county committee what it should or should not do with the amendment
 nallas county, it was stated, had de- cided to submit the amendment to the
