Mr.. Wood. Somewhere along the
way they met Sam Lovitz who inquir-
ed as to what was in the bag (the
gator having been placed in a hag).
He was told that the party had been
fishing and that was their catch Sam
felt the bag and allowed it was some

work done and who benefited thereby.
Mr.. Coates says he cannot collect this
small amount and requests US TO give
it to the Civic club or the Red Cross
with Instructions that they can have
the money if they will collect it.
The Leader has bill for $12.50
against this same party which it is I'M
able to collect and will gladly add
this amount to the $3.50. With bit
of advertising we feel sure that others
will come forward with bad bills which
they arc willing to give the Civic club
and the amounts will be worth en-
ploying an attorney to enter suit for
if Impossible to collect otherwise.
The idea some people have of run
ming small bills and never paying
same is not a good one and should be
discouraged and we believe fine and
effective method will be the turning
over of these bills to the Civic club OF
the Red Cross for collection.
Of course, no one would turn over a
bill this way unless they were con-
WINGED the debtor did not intend to
pay.
We have numerous small bills
against people who we feel sure in
tend to nay, ard these we are glad to
takn care of, but the ones who do not
intend to pay are the ones the public
should know about.
Will the head of the Civic club kind
" call at The Leader Office and take
charge of these bills? II may be quite
! easy for these ladies to collect and
thereby add a good sum to the Golfers

Adams keeps the pilots office in

pilots aboard ships, besides having

Formerly he took the pilots out
into the bay in a small boat and
sometimes this was rather interesting

asserts. a good many years ago, his
sailboat filled to the thwarts and he
was strenuously occupied in battling
out while on trip, and on getting
back to the dock he learned that an
other pilot was there expecting to be
taken out to a ship.
Adams has seen Pensacola shipping
transformed from sailing vessels OF

regularly until their arrival has be-
