irhc tobacco crop 4 of the United
States. according to the latest avail
able Government statiscs, will not
fall far short of last year, and It
seems probable that the total Weld
may show an actual increase despite
unfavorable growing weather in most
sections Of the country during the
summer months, says Wednesdays
Cincinnati Enquirer. Late growth al
most everywhere is said to have been
particularly satisfactory and the final
estimate made after the crop. is cut
and housed is expected to be some
what higher than the figuring based
upon conditions prevailing October 1.
Compared with the conditions on
September ! the tobacco crop of the
country shows an Improvement dur
ing the month of 1.8 per cent, but the
condition estimated on October l is
8.9 per cent below the ten-year aver
age. The production for the entire
United States, as based upon the con-
dition October /, is given at 1,278, O62, y
900 pounds, which is ! a decrease Of
$50, 900 pounds, or fraction of / per
cent compared with the estimates Of
September 1, and only 81, 947, 900
pounds less than last years final esti-
mate, indicating possible decrease
for the current year Of approximately
5 per cent
The Kentucky crop made good
progress during September, showing
an Improvement of 3 per cent in con-.
dition, and an estimated increase in
production amounting to 1,852,0OO
pounds. In North Carolina, the sec
ond largest tobacco producing state,
the condition fell off 10 per cent dur
ing September, but the production is
estimated as 8,188,000 pounds heavier
than on September 1, due to the de-
velopment Of a heavy grade of leaf,
Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio, and In
diana seem to have made the poorest
showing toward the close Of the
growing season, and the production
in each is under that Of last year or
the estimate made one month ago for.
the current crop.

TO LAUNCH MEMBERSHIP DRIVE

For to every thinking mind it's work

The war has created a new reading
public, from a silent partner in edu-
cation the library has become not only
an active but an energizing force.
It sends forth it's message to the
students who are preparing for citi-
zenship that they may be worthy of
building the America of tomorrow. It's
work now, like all we'll equipped BUSH
ness-reaches out into new fields of
human service.
In asking for membership, the lib
rary is giving something in return
together with what is noblest. "Edu-
cation ought not to cease when we
leave school, but if we'll begun there.
Will continue through life.''
The work of the library In the flu

| In the year 1908 p group Of business
men with William FISHER as chairman
We're called ,ogerher to organize the
| first Y. NJ. c. A in Pensacola. With
| this group came the first concerted
organized effort Oh the part of all
creeds, classes and denominations to
form an organization for the better
ment of the community. and from this
small body of business and profession
al men has grown one of the strong
est and most influential Young Mems
Christian Associations in the South.
This was one of the first organized
in the extreme South. and was the
first organized in the State of Florida.
This same year funds for the erection
of the building were subscribed, and
j. H. Sheriff.. then secretary of the Y.
NJ. C. A. at Petersberg, Va. was call
ed to become the first general Sec
rotary.
The building was completed and oc-
cupied in the year 1905. and has from
that day been a factor for good and
morality in the city. Other build
ings have since been erected in this
state in the following order: ST.
Augustine, Jacksonville Tampa and
Mama, with county work organized
in Polk county. The influence of the
work at Pensacola has been largely
instrumental in organizing other fields
in the state. The entire funds for
the building now occupied by the as
ISOLATION at PalafoX and Belmont
streets were contributed by the pub
lie spirited citizens Of Pensacola. The
building was done by Pensacola con-
tractors and the furniture for the en-
tire building purchased through PEN
sacola MERCHANTS.
J. H. Sheriff., the first general sec
rotary. served in that capacity from
1908 to 1913, when he resigned to be-
come associated with the Texas Oil
Company. He was succeeded by w. p.
Cunningham, who had been associat-
ed with Mr.. Sheriff. in the work in the
capacity of educational secretary, and
served the association until 1917, his
successor being r. r. Jennings, who
was secretary for one year. John p
Moore, of Roanoke, Virginia. was then
called to the work here and is now
the directing head of the organiza-
ton.
The property of the association is
vested in a board of directors, who
have oversight of the work and are
responsible for it's deeds and actions.
The work of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association is broad in it's scope,
and it is the one organization where
men Of all creeds and men of no
creeds, who are of good moral character
may become members and enjoy the
benefits. There are no bounds to the
work that can, and is being done by
