peFuNIAk ENTERPRISE.

Advices from DeFuniak indicate
that that city may soon have a plant
for the manufacture of cement brick,
plaster, imitation marble, for interior
finish, and the construction of build
ing fronts, and stone-imitations of
various kinds for building purposes.
The DeFuniak Breeze says of this
proposed enterprise:
Mr.. Formby, the inventor Of the
process is here making the investiga-
ton as to local material, coming at
the invitation of r. E. l.. McCaskin
and has shown US a number of SAM
pies of the various kinds of artificial
stone in which this material is used,
and reports of the various govern
ment tests as to it's hardness, ten
sile strength ,toughness,' etc. The
samples run all the way from those
made with ordinary sand, ground
limestone, powdered marble, crushed
stone, oyster and coquina shell and
other forms of aggregate and need to
be seen to be appreciated.
Floor things made of this were used
in one of the largest theatres in
Jacksonville and one of the big banks
there used the imitation Italian mar
BILE in its interior work. The First
National Bank building of st. Angus
tine. is built entirely of this, inside
and out, and one or more big build
ings in other towns in South Florida
The liquid is also used as fire
protective paint and early next week
Mr. Formby will give demonstration
Of it's fire proofing qualities on the
street there.
If the tests of local sand justify it,
Mr.. McCaskill will either put in a
plant himself or organize a local COM
pany for the purposeNof making the
various building materials named
above.

BE CAREEUI-NOW

Once more on the streets of PenSa-
cola a life has been taken, this time
the life of a little child, killed almost
in an instant of time by a I1urrying
automobile.
The Journal does not seek to place
blame where it is not due. Eye-wit-
nesses declare that the accident was
almost unavoidable; yet the fact re-
mains that the child is dead a
mother and father are brokenhearted
and a man will carry with him al
ways the memory of that still little
form, the child-death, for which he
was responsible.
Are not such accidents avoidable
That is the question which always
arises in the mind, when these 'un-
avoidable". accidents occur. Is it not
true that, unless an automobile is
going at very rapid rate, it can be
checked in time to save tragedy?
Whenever an accident of this kind
happens, it is always maintained that
children should not be allowed to play
on the streets. In this case, it was
the mother-care, the desire to save her
child, that brought about the very
thing she had hoped to prevent.
The fact of the matter is that we
blind to danger We have become
Of an automobile is going at break
neck speed, he feels that he is with
in his rights"
But there are many things that
must be taken into consideration. On
residence streets children always play
about the roadways, to some extent.
On be, 60 sc
much coming and going at all hours.
On the open road the driver has a
right to enjoy the pleasure of motor
ing. But the residence and shopping
districts are no place for pleasure
motoring. The first thought of the
motorist should be to protect the pub
lie from accident. Unless he keeps
this thought uppermost in his mind
he is bound to meet with disa 5ter.
The accident of Friday may have
been unavoidable. But accidents on
the streets of Pensacola occur with
too great frequency. Many of these
accidents are avoidable. They will
continue to occur as long as the mo-
florists use the residence and shop
ping districts with the abandon with
which they are now used.
Go slow. Don't speed up in thickly
populated sections of the city. Wait
for the open road, before you let up
on your vigilance. All the quick SEN
sation of speeding can never compen-
safe for the memory of childss still
face; of a mothers breaking heart
Don't wait to get the lesson, after the
accident has happened. Take it to
heart today. Drive with greater care
today. Have consideration today. BE
sure that your machine is in order, SO
that it will respond Immediately to
your need. Keep always before you
the thought that you are an engineer
in charge of a powerful machine
whose slightest misuse may bring
death and disaster. Be careful before
and you will not have to be careful
when it is too late for your regrets or
reproaches to bring back a life.

FREEM EN-.

Over the world today
Under the Stars and Stripes
Goes the hope of the world;
Here on the soil where their Slres
Died that their sons might be free
men;
Marches the army of freedom;
There on the torn breast of France,
Red with blood that has gushed
From the heart of the bleeding
world,
Lie the still host of their brothers,
Waiting the Captains command;
They are not dead-that we know
Lying so still in the rain
When the night curtain has fallen;
Lying so stark in the sun,
Listening for sound of the signal
Telling that freedom is won;
Waiting the message of peace
Peace that they fell to preserve;
Peace that they died to secure.
Silent they lie, and the rain
Falls on the faces, up-turned;
Dreaming, they think Of their
mothers;
Dreaming, they drink of her tears
She who gave birth that for this,
They might lie still in the rain,
Waiting to know why they died.
Silent they lie in the sun,
Burning and blistering sun,
Sweet with the breath of the flow
ers;
Hot with the memories of hell;
Lying so still in the sun,
Waiting the message that tells
Why they have fallen.
Back in the land that they knew,
Cheered by the people they knew
But they lie still in the rain,-
But they lie still in the night
Through the long days they lie still,
Listening to laughter and cheers;
Harking to music and song,-
Waiting the message that says:
at was worth all that it cost you;
1t was worth nights in the trench;
1t was worth torturing thirst;
1t was worth hunger and cold;
1t was worth heart break and
tears;
1t was worth night in the rain;
Days in the blistering sun;
Worth those lost kisses of youth;
Worth those lost blessings of age;
Worth all the loneness and pain;
Winning the peace of the world;
Keeping forever the land
Free for the others who laugh,
Free for the others who march,
Free for the others who sing,
While you lie there in the cold,
While you lie out in the sun.
Waiting the Captains command.

of 139 w. Liberty ST., Pensacola, Fla.
in a signed statement. .-.-..
MY health has been miserable; Sc
we're headaches, attended by pains in
my back and limbs, caused me much
agony. I also had a distressed feeling
in my stomach and it would fill up
with gas after meals, making me very
uncomfortable. I often had dizzy
spells which nearly blinded me; my
appetite fell away to almost nothing
My breath was so foul could smell
it myself. 1t is really hard to de-
scribe my feelings
"All this time I was taking differ
'ent medicines, but without much sue
cess. When the new medicine Dreco
came to town, l was impressed by the
honest frank statements read in the
papers about it and began taking it
myself. 1t is hard to realize what
big change this Dreco has brought
forth. 1t is almost beyond belief"
My food digests perfectly, leaving
no gas nor pains; headaches and
backaches have gone. My liver is act
ing well, which has overcome the dir
ziness and foul breath and bad taste
in my mouth. I am fYll of energy,
and have felt light hearted and happy
all the time. L hope every one suf-
fering as I once did, will give Dreco
a trial.

THE GRAcEvILLE WAY.

No weekly which comes TO, The
Journal exchange desk is read with
greater interest than the Graceville
Advertiser, which each week carries
news stories and editorial matter in
dicative of the rapid agricultural de-
velopment of that part of the state.
In the last issue of the Advertiser,
there were eleven news stories, which
had to do with farm products, each
of which was valuable in itself, the
total making a splendid presentation
of farming facts and giving an insight
into the rapid growth of the thriving
community.
The lead story has to do with the
raising of hogs, and calls attention to
the fact that, with meat and lard SELL
ing for thirty cents, and up, and hams
much higher, the farmers of the
Graceville section should give hog
rising more attention. Graceville has
good cold storage plant, which will
perfectly cure an immense amount of
meat. While some of the hogs cured
there are raised in GrA.sv.!e. much Of
the meat is from outside markets
Chipley and Andalusia furnished a
portion.
The Advertiser calls attention to
the fact that one reason why Grace
vile has not raised as many hogs as
should have been raised this year for
the plant is that heretofore the farm
ers have annual raised peanuts for the
sole purpose of fattening the hogs, but
last season the price of peanuts went
so high it was more profitable to mar
ket the nuts than to feed them to the
hogs. Again this year there is a
heavy acreage devoted to peanuts, but
there is yet plenty of time to raise a
large amount of potatoes for the
hogs"
The Advertiser says that the pea
nut crop is promising. Vines in the
locality are nearly a foot high and
samples of Spanish peanuts are good.
Runners are also extra good, and
there is a fine outlook for the peanut
crop.
The Advertiser has mention of the
first sweet potato, the tuber presented
to the editor measuring nearly six
inches.
The watermelon crop at Graceville,
while somewhat late this year, is good.
Buyers are on the market ard car
load shipments will soon be going out.
The Advertiser is off ring three prizes
for the largest water melons brought
TO the Advertiser office.
Attention is called to the cucumber
business, which thrives at Graceville.
The cucumber industry at Graceviile is
a new enterprise. The best grade is
selling for $2.40 per cwt, with second
grade bringing so Gets. per cwt. The
cucumbers are pickeled by Messrs.
Wright brothers, who have installed
two watts at their plant.
Mention is made of the fine vine-
yard of the Rev. J. H. Crutchfield.

vines which game promise of bear

The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1920-07-04

Eight billion, seven hundred and ten
million dollars spent in luxuries. There
is not one essential mentioned in all
this list.
But it is a fact that figures some
times do lie. That is, if we take these
figures only as figures, they are mis-
leading.
On the face of the statement that all
of these things are useless luxuries, it
would seem that we are wasteful and
extravagant, beyond all reason. Per-
hapS we are.
But studying these figures we find
that there luxuries are harmless in
themselves. They represent the peo-
pie in their hours of relaxation. But
they represent something more than
this. They stand for billions of dol
lars, not listed here, spent in the pro-
duction of these articles.
These billions put into circulation
have given employment at good wages
TO millions of men and women, and
the money thus earned has gone to
pay for the necessities of life.
Years ago when Mrs. Stuyvesant
Fish entertained at one Of her lavish
balls a number of the leading news
papers of the country wrote scathing
articles about the reckless and waste
full use of money, thrown away by the
wealthy classes. But more conserva-
tive and logical editors called atten-
ton to the fact that every hundred
carnations used meant just so many
dollars in the pockets of the florist
and his employees: that every evening
gown, meant just so much money for
the nlodiste and the manufacturer and
their employees: that every gallon of
ice cream and every crate of fruit
meant just so much money put into
circulation.

In addition to the establishment Of

June, just issued by the State Har

in maritime activities at this port,
with vessels aggregating 100,SS6 tons
entering the harbor during that pc
Rod. These figures show a gain of
more than 1000 tons over the month
of May and made up what is said to
be one of the three largest reports
ever made by the state harbor body.
The number of ships arriving was
Freight more than during the pre-

A majority of these vessels came
to take on or discharge cargoes, while
several put into port for repairs. Half
of the number were large foreign
