DO you know what your careless
useless expenditures amounted to las
year? What could be omitted ant
still provide comfortable happy lift
for your family.
Accounts should tell you six facts
when. whence and what Won re-
ceived. and when, where and for
what you spend. They are of nc
use unless approximately accurate
and simple enough to be easily un,
derstood by third party. You will
then be able to understand them
yourself six months later. Thew are
useless unless compared with a pIan
for spending and used as a basis
for rebuilding that plan.
Each month and year the total
amounts should be easily available
for comparison with the totals Of
other months and years.
Accounts should not be a bugbear
They should consume only a mini
mum amount of time N for this
reason it Is necessary to choose a
simple system adopted to your in
dividual needs.

AMENDMENTS TO
MARRIAGE BILL
ALL DEFEATED
BY JOHN c. TRIc.

Tallahassee May 19.-The fight in
the house on the Lewis bill regulating
the issuing of marriage licenses was
more for the purpose of amending
than for the purpose of killing it, as
was shown in the discussion and vote
on the final passage of the bill. None
of teh amendments were adopted, but
on the final passage of the bill A
members voted for it and only nine
against 1t.
The fight was led by Mr.. Brooks.
of Monroe county, who attacked sec
ton two. by offering to strike out that
part of the section marking illegal
marriages contracted in any other
way than that prescribed in the bill.
This would, it was argued, nullify
marriages made in ignorance of the
provisions thereby laid down.
Mr.. Lewis said that was the very
intention of the bill. and he believed
that when such rule was laid down
by statute the county judges of the
state would see that the law was fol-
lowed. Common law marriages, up
held by the courts. he declared, were
disfastefuI to society and were OBJ
iectionable from many other stand
points. These would be absolutely
without the pale of recognition by the
courts if this bill passed, and that was
its intention.
On the motion of Mr.. Chavous the
amendment was laid on the table.
Mr.. Jones offered the following
amendment:
provided, that no marriage under
this act shall be soIemnized in any
county outside of the county in which
such license is issued, and then only
by the written consent Of the parents
or guardians of the girl or woman
involved in the case
On the suggestion of Mr.. Chavous.
this amendment was laid on the table.

Home SERVICE
FUND TO BE
SPENT AT HOME

Reassurances are given that Pensa-
cola is going to receive the benefit
of $4,000 spent on new Salvation
Army headquarters soon after the
close of the Salvation Army Home
Service fund drive. This home and
headquarters will be for the benefit of
all West Florida
All details have been arranged for
this work and in a short while the
Salvation Army headquarters in this
city will be such that the city may
well be proud of, it is stated by au-
thorities.
Salvation Army headquarters gives
the following information regarding
what is to be done here in this man
ner:
Twenty five thousand dollars will
be used for the purchase of the lot
in the central part of Pensacola, cor
ner jefferson and Zarragossa streets,
also for the erection of a modern cit
adel with an auditorium for public
meetings, Sunday School rooms, Off
GERS quarters for the officers in charge
of the local work, reading room, relief
and employment offices. also an emer-
gency room for the purpose of taking
care of charitable cases.
This will give some idea of the
work to be done in this section by
the Salvation Army in the near fu-
ture Plans are now under way for
the new buildings and work viii be
started just as soon as consistent.

Tallahassee, Fla, May 19.-The spe-
cia1 committee appointed at the extra
session to investigate state institutions
reported today on the State Prison
Farm at Raiford. giving it a clean bill
of health and paying hight tribute to
its management.
Senator Igous' bill to appropriate two
hundred thousand dollaras to remod-
ell and enlarge the state house was
read for the second time and went to
a third reading without amendment.
Senator Eaton's bill to create the
twelfth judicial circuit consisting of
Lee and Desoto, leaving Polk county
alone in the tenth circuit, passed the
senate and went to the house.
After long wrangle the house this
afternoon passed the Harriss bill to
require the examination of all male
persons applying for marriage license
by a physician and prohibiting the is
sue of such licenses to male persons
afflicted with communicable or incur
able diseases.
The measure was strongly opposed
by Wicker, of Sumter, who took the
position that the passage of such a
law would reflect on the young men
of the state. Efforts We're made to
require examination of both parties
before issuing marriage license, Mr..
Weaver, of Lafayette taking the posi-
ton that 1t was important to pre-
vent marriage of persons with tuber-
cuIosis and other diseases, but the
measure withstood all efforts to amend
The house also passed the Phillips
bill reducing the levy for state health
tax TO one fourth mill. The present
levy is one half mill The bill pro-
vides for keeping on hand fifty thou
sand dollars for emerbencies. and the

Both Local Churches Raise
Centenary Funds and
Completes Quota in Short
Order.

Both the Gadsden street and the
Firth Methodist churches of this city
exceeded their quota in the Centenary
drive for $35,0O0,000. It was also re-
ported that the church at Century
had exceeded its quota by $4,000.
The First Methodist church was al
lotted $11, 900 and this sum was pledged
early. The campaign continues how
ever, for there are many members
who have not been interviewed.
AT the Gadsden Street Methodist
church, the same condition prevails.
The quota here was $4,000. and this
amount has been exceeded with large
number yet unsolicited. Many from
both churches. who were out of town,
have requested that they be given
time to make their pledges.
The church at Century was one of
the first to go over and the quota was
exceeded by $4,000.
The team captains and the mem
bers of the teams are being congratu-
lated for their good work. The man
ayers of the drive here, wish to make
1t known, however, that the campaign
is not over. 1t is desired that every
member shall contribute and so help
to pile up big. over subscription.
