EXTENSION OF RAILROADS.

According to the Chipley Verdict
the B. c. and st. A. Railway is to be
extended to st. Andrews, Panama city
and Bunker Cove, bridging the bay
into Lynn Haven.
Receiver A. d. Campbell, who was
called to Philadelphia two weeks ago
to attend a stockholders meeting OF
the B. c. g. St A. Railway, returned
home Sunday night bringing the news
that arrangements have been COM
pieted by which the road is to be ex-
tended at an early date. The move
has been adequately financed the re-
Ownership closed, the contract for ex-
tending the line let and work will be-
gin within ninety days.
Iron sufficient to build the northern
extension from Chipley to Graceville
has already been secured and that end
will be the first constructed, on COM
pletion Of which the Bay end win re-
Seive attention.

TEAcH THEM TO SWIM.

Thursday afternoon tiny girl, the
four-year-old daughter of 3. B. Saun-
ders. pleased and astonished the
crowds at Bayview by her aquatic
feats. This little maid dives from the
spring board without fear. can swim
like mermaid. and is absolutely un-
afraid of the water.
To those who have watched her as
she dives and swims, the wonder
comes that all children of Pensacola
are not taught to swim. Nowhere
else in the world are there such ex-
cellent advantages for learning all
aquatic sports, yet there are compar-
atively few men and women who
swim really well. and fewer boys and
girls who are prepared to fend for
themselves in the water.
Through Bayview and other recrea-
ton centres, however, the number of
boys and girls who can swim is rap
idly growing, and this is a splendid
thing for the community in more ways
than one. Nothing so induces to good
health as outdoor life, and no out
door recreatin holds more pleasure
and great aid to healthfuiness than the
art OF swimming.
All Pensacola children should be en-
couraged to follow the example of this
four year old girl, whose swimming,
carefully supervised as it is. is max
ing her fearless and fitting her to be
a healthful and happy woman.

MORE AND BETTER TEACHERS

That the educational interests of
Florida will be better served during
the next school year than during any
past term, because of a larger supply
of teachers, is the opinion of members
of the state board of teachers ex-
aminers.
In all more than five hundred ap-
plicants for licenses to teach in Flor
ida have been examined during the
summer, according to Miss Glen
Hampton, corresponding secretary of
the board. or this number about three
hundred examinations were the result
of the session of summer school at
Gainesville.
while some county superintendent
of instruction appear dubious regard
ing this years teacher supply, / be-
lieve that Florida schools will be
equipped with instructors. as this
is the largest number of examinations
the board has yet held during any
summer" Miss Hampton said. The
examining board consists of Thomas
B. Kirk. chairman; Miss Glenn Hamp-
ton corresponding secretary and Miss
Christian Macdonald, recording secre-
tary.

CHALLENGES ACCURACY.

The Tampa Tribune calls attention
to the estimates" Of the census bu-
reau, which gives to Florida but 937,-
877, and declares that to those of us
who know Florida, and have seen the
strikes it has made in the past ten
years, it is ridiculous to talk of this
state having gained but 1888 people
in decade. Says the Tribune: The
more we see and hear of 1t, the more
thoroughly are we convinced that the
1920 census was a great joke-so far
as this state was concerned.
THE census bureau in estimating
the population of continental United
States to be 105.082,500 divides that
figure among the states. as it 'esti-
mates it will be divided. Florida gets
93s,S77! This is a gain in ten years
of 7,259-a little less than .008 per
cent gain.
THE Tribune challenges the cor
rectness of that estimate The
gains shown by Miami, St Petersburg,
Jacksonville, Tampa, Pensacola, Key
West and other cities far offset the
small loss shown by a few north
Florida counties, and the scattered
small cities in the state. The fact is
