TRAINERS APPRECIATE UNIVERSITY.

In recent issue of The Florida Alligator, the
official publication of the University of Florida,
much space is devoted to forcible article in
which the Alligator takes exception to edi-
torial appearing in the okaloosa News
The Journal has no desire to enter the lists as
either aggressor or mediator as it feels that the
very efficiant staff of the University publica-
ton is amply able to handle the situation, but
there is SO much that is timely and valuable in
the reply to the Okaloosa editor that the Journal
wishes to give publicity to the following portion
of the article:
The first. attack made against the University
is that it is a waster of money that the horny
handed tillers of the soir labor so hard for, and
that even the little money spent wisely is spent
in the interests of the rich; for this class it is
that benefits from the State University
This statement has not one grain of truth in
it and is in striking contrast to the actual facts
Through economic management, even underpay-
ing the professors, our university spends less per
student than does any other similar institution
in the United States. And further, the state
ment that whatever money is spent is spent upon
the rich is absurd. The college of agriculture is
the largest in the University, having about one
third of our total enrolment. 1t is here that the
foundation is being laid for the future prosperity
of Florida. In Florida's agricultural develop
ment the University will have played no small
part. And evidently the farmers of the state
realize this, for as an answer to such deliberate
untruths as this article sets forth, they are con-
stantly sending their sons in an ever-increasing
number.
In addition to the fact that about one third
OF our students are sons of farmers, it is an un-
disputed fact that in the rest of our college the
majority OF our boys work their own way
through school, earning enough in summer to
practically put them through in the winter The
rich social class of which this editor speaks, go
outside the state to other schools where there is
less real work and more play"

AN EQUAL BENEFIT.

The following strong and practical expression
by the editor, p. r. Read, appears in the Milton
Gazette of Friday:
s'The proposition Of creating special road dis
trict No. 8, and the building of brick or cement
roads from Milton to Allentown, and from Mil
ton to the Escambia river, and of joining with
Escambia county, and the state and federal gov
ernments in the construction of splendid bridge
across that stream is, or ought to be about the
Invest issue Of the day in the sections to be in
cuded in this district. The election on this mat
ter will be held on the 18th of June when the
free holders of the proposed district viii deter
mine whether they will take this progressive
move or whether they want to make good the
taunts of sections of the country that we, of the
south part of the county are too slow to catch
cold. Those with whom we have discussed the
proposition of voting the bonds and making these
necessary improvements, are heartily in accord
with the proposition, there are few who offer
some excuses against it. Among these excuses
is, That if we had bridge and good roads be-
tween here and Pensacola, people would go there
to trade and for their amusement They forget
in this connection that the people who live in the
city just anxious to get into the country as
the people in the country to get into the city,
and that while there would be percentage of
the four or five thousand people TO this locality
who would exercise their rights and go to Pen
sacola for their amusement and trading, there
would be equally large percentage of Pensa-
colas forty or fifty thousand people who would
come to this section for their amusement, thus
along this line we would benefit ten to by the
bridge and road There others who oppose
the matter because it would add slightly to their
taxes. This is bug-a-boo that always comes up
when any improvement is to be made, yet in this
case it has less foundation than usual to stand
upon. Of course, taxes would, be slightly increas-
3D. possibly three to five dollars per year for the
average citizen. But on the other hand, while
your taxes will be increased few dollars, the
big corporation the railroads and large land own
ers viii be matching your five ten dollars with
las many hundreds of dollars and doing it will
ingly, and on top of this, the state and federal
government will put up as much, or more than
all the tax payers combined, in the matter Thus
by supporting this movement which will cost you
but mere pittance annually you, and the en-
tire county will secure the advantages of at
least an hundred thousand dollars paid by larger
taxpayers and two hundred-thousand dollars
given by the state and national governments.
Can you afford to turn down such proposition !?
We hardly think you will

PROsPECTs OF PAYMENT.

Roughly put Germany has approximately 70
billions of wealth and they demand that she pay
something like 200 billions.
1t looks like an impossibility It is certainty
that she must have time and such help as anx-
ous creditors willing to give in the spirit of
business is business"
Studying history we discover that one of the
Germans strongholds in money-making lay in
MADE in Germany" In view of a good part of
the world, this old Teutonic trademark may
come to reads made in Germany proceeds to go
to France and Belgium
History also is to the effect that thousands of
Germany's rich autocrats, headed by the kaiser,
made heavy investments in foreign parts, in
realty, manufactures and securities. Why should
a socialist government of Germany hesitate to
turn these properties over as part payment of
Germany's debt?
Recent war history testifies that Germany
tax rate has been ridiculously low compared to
that of Britain, France and Italy. Germany sim
ply bet on securing big indemnities and, in the
of Belgium, at least, did collect them as she
went along. The rich of Germany, the element
that profited greatly through militarism and
more through warfare, has borne lower tax
rate on income than has been imposed upon any
of the other belligerents, the United States.

New Yok Sept. s.
For the life of me
! cannot understand
Why New York has so many
Bored looking women.
You see them riding
Around in carriages.
And limousines
In the public parks
And on the avenue.
And at the opera,
And their main business
In life, 1t seems,
Is just to look bored.
And they are generally
Uglier than all get-Uut;
And they are daubed
And smeared with paint,
Ana carry lorgnettes;
And the few times
That they try to smile
You would think
They had just tasted
A sour fish or something.
And when they see
A pretty young girl
They lift their lorgnettes,
AS much as to say.
What an awful creature.
And when they meet, ayone
That they have to speak to
They lift languid hand
And look exactly like
They had just swallowed
A prohibition cocktail
Made of hair oil,
Bath salts,
Or anything lying around
The old bathroom,
With a touch of alcohol.
Poor ephemera,
Living their little day,
Blind leading the blind
And falling into
The ditch of bigotry.
If they would just
Come down off their perch
And go to the movies,
And chew little gum,
And play little rum,
Or scrub the back porch,
They would soon find
That this Is indeed
L pretty fair world
AS worlds go.
At any rate
It's the hest we got.
