 Publication of the Endorsement, it was stated. was a result of the determination of local citizens that work on the bridge should be started early this summer in order that the structure may be opened for travel next year.
 Action of the state highway commits sion in permitting the counties on the Bee Line highway to build sections of that thoroughfare first with funds from the s35. .00OO O00 bond issue has created much enthusiasm in the Tennessee val ley.

He had aspira tions for gubernatorial honors and would probably have been success ful had not the war interfered. He was elected to the Confederate Congress and greatly respected by that body, on account of his splendid talents and high social qualities. He was born a demo- crat, and always an advocate of the Calhoun theory of the nature of our government. He could see no guilt in se- cession, and no authority in the constitu- tion to coerce rebellious states into sub mission to the law.

Anyone wishing to take ad- vantage of the electric current for heat ins the radiator while his car is left standing pays an annual fee to the cleo tric light company and receives a key that enables him to use the current taps. The customer also receives a license num- Der which is tied to the connecting cord of his electric heater, so that the inspec- tor of the electric light company can see whether or not authorized parties are using the plugs. The consumer must, Of course, provide his own electric radiator heater. The idea is one which has great possibilities, especially in the localities which get very cold in winter.

Value of Cost and Maintenance Record
 on Trucks Obvious

The value of maintaining a cost and performance record of motor truck operation is obvious. Except those who do keep such records. however, few ap- preciate just how invaluable they are.
 Some inexperienced truck operators are prone to dismiss the task of main taining records with the argument that it is waste of time and money. To the contrary, experience proves that time and money thus invested yield handsome returns.
 Said user of six trucks recently:
 "A few months after we instituted a cost and performance record system we were able to spot leaks which ac- counted for 25 per cent of our expense of operation
 ten trucks, recently declared that even the owner of two trucks should main- tain records.
 Tt furnishes he said Comparative figures to show just which truck is be- ing operated efficiently. When records show high operating cost it sounds like alarm to investigate the cause, whether it be the fault of the driver, the operating system or the truck itself"
 The most important function to cost records, however, is to furnish the op- orator with basic and accurate figure which will permit of no delusion as to the cost of doing business This is especially important in contracting, trucking and other lines of business in which haulage is a principle item. In such businesses, in fact, success or

The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1920-06-20
SHALL WE BE FIRST.

The Jacksonville Times Union fig
ures that if the rate of increase MAIN
tanned during the past ten years con-
tinues during the next ten, Miami will
be the first city in Florida, Jackson
vile, the second Tampa third, ST.
Petersburg fourth and Pensacola fifth
In population.
The Journal cannot agree in its es-
innate. In fact, 1t was predicted at
the press meeting, which closed in
Pensacola yesterday, that If Pensacola
continued to make Roadway during
the next ten years that it has made
in the past two years. this city would
be pushing Jacksonville for second, if
not for first place.
Miami and ST. Petersburg have both
made wonderful strides forward dur
ing the past ten years. both of these
towns have made much of that prog
ress through good publicity. Publicity
is a fine thing. 1t draws people to
q city or section. They come as visi-
tors and remain as residents and in
vestors.
Pensacola believes that publicity
pays. That lesson has been driven
home to every resident of Florida by
the almost miraculous growth of Mi
ami and st. Petersburg. The Journal
feels much more like agreeing with
the prediction made at the press con-
vention than with the conclusions
drawn by the Times Union And it
believes that. OF the two, the predic-
tions made at the press meeting is the
most likely. Pensacola has every
reason for progress. We have the
bay and the situation; we have the
right kind of people and we have the
right kind OF climate. There is just
one thing we need for further ad-
Jvancement and that is more publicity
With the proper sort and amount of
advertising, Pensacola will become
known not only as the South's great
est seaport, but as the South's great
est all-the-year-round resort This
is the sort of advertising that builds
for permanency, and it is the only
kind we want.
Let each citizen of Pensacola strive
during every day of the next ten
years to put forward this city as it
has never been before. to the end that
the prediction made at the press con-
vention, and not that made by the
Times Union. may come true.
