glance at the vivid pinks and greens

/ had seen the same thing in quilts
which my mother had pieced when she
was a young girl / had heard her
lament that nowhere could she find
such calicos any more, An old friend
of hers, a gentle, frail, old creature,
lived near the boarding house where
my mother had spent her last days
with me. / knew that she delighted
in the ld-fashioned patchwork. and
that she, too, mourped the absence of

How much is this yard?" I laid
my hand upon the calico. lifted my
eyes to the man behind the counter.

many kind things which are being
said about the recent Florida Press
convention and Pensacola. From the

two pages, to the short but apprecia-
tive editorial from the pen of that
veteran newspaper man and racon-

The Journal deeply regrets that IL
il not possible TO give space to these
stories which. while covering much
the same ground. express in so many
different ways the reciprocal pleas
ures enjoyed 1t is probable. that
many of the editors who were the
guests OF Pensacola, found our city
somewhat different from what was ex-
pected.
The Journal hopes that it may DO
possible to entertain the members of
the state press association again some
day. In the meantime. we believe
that the delightful and successful
meeting Just closed has brought all
OF US closer together for mutual bene-
fit
The Journal appreciates the many
kind things said about the town, its
people and its newspapers.

Press Comment
PensaeoIa's Hospitality

PensacoIa's Hospitality
Last week the Florida Press Associ-
alton was entertained at Pensacola
in manner so unusually hospital bic
and so Astounding in generous courtesy
as to call forth extravagant apprecia-
lions from men and women whose
very vocation more often prompts cal
louness to the unusual. In this en-
tertainment Pensacola exhibited spirit
that well might be emulated by every
other city in Florida, not only for
the benefits according directly but
for the building up between the vari-
GUS sections of the state closer re-
lationship in a social way.
Pensacola entered into the enter
tainment Of the guests with the same
spirit that has brought the name OF
that busy community before the coun-
try on more than one occasion within
the last three or four years in con-
nection with some progressive move
ment or some new enterprise begun.
All arrangements were in the hands OF
committees. but the entire citizenship
constituted a committee of the whole
to make the visitors feel at home.
As long as the editors of Florida
remember the splendid entertainment
at Pensacola Just so. long they will
remember Charley Hervey. for he was
the medium through which Pensacola
lavished it's hospitality upon the fra
ternity. The magnificent San Carlos
hotel dubbed Santa Claus by Herb
Felkel. was vertically the home of the
visitors. In his speech Of greeting
Mr.. Hervey invited the guests to take
anything portable that they saw lying
around. He not only extended all of
the courtesies of the hotel to the visi-
tors without charge, but was host at
mardi gras ball, daily luncheons. an
oyster roast at Fort Pickens where
the editors listened to the post band
while they ate And filling the meas
ure even higher he gave costly souve-
MRS to all. the intrinsic value of
which must have been a tremen-
douS item.
To Mrs. Lois Mayes. owner of the
Pensacola Journal. the editors are also
especially indebted as it was Mrs.
Mayes who co-operated with Mr..
Hervey and made possible many of
the social features which were SO ire
enjoyed-Palatka News.

From all accounts Pensacola covered
herself with glory in entertaining the

was spared. It seems, in giving MEM

risk solely by increasing its fire fight
ing apparatus, but by making and en-
forcing stringent building laws to pre-
vent the erection of firebreeding build
ings. BY the same sign it is a short
sighted state that permits the con-
tinued existence of dangerous breed
ing places for social unrest and shifts
its reliance to its police and its militia
for the responsibility for maintain-
ing order.
The general responsibility and the
problems which 1t entails, then. seem
to rest first on the community in
which n dustrial expansion takes
place Every such community should
stimulate all efforts which tend toward
an increase OF home building. Banks
and individuals should be encouraged
to loan literally to those who wish
to invest in a home. Manufacturers
associations should take up the sub
ject OF cooperative building, and
should combine to erect housing de-
velopments.
The state, in turn. should promptly
take up the housing question first by
actual housing condi-
tons and then by making its findings
public, and by pointing out the results
of crowded and unsatisfactory condi-
lions. The state may, indeed, well
consider it wise to loan money to in
dustrial communities where the hous-
ing situation has become more or less
acute.
In the end community or state may
well require evidence of the avail
ability of ample space before per-
the building or factory addi-
tons in crowded sections. 1t is diff
cult to see what hardship would be
caused by such requirement.
