ENGINEER SAYS CITY
HAS GREAT FUTURE
Getorse Ashworth Is Impressed with
Pensacola's Advantage and Geo.
graphical Position.

George S. Ashworth, sales engineer
with the L. Smith company of Jack
sonyille, left last night after spend
ing several DAYS in Pensacola on bust
ness.
Mr. Ashworth is connected with one
of the largest fabricating and steel
and iron companies in Florida. He
was formerly connected with the Car
negie Steel company of Pittsburgh, but
has been engaged in business in Flor
ida for several years. He stated last
night, when seen at the San Carlos,
that he was very much impressed with
the advantages that Pensacola has in
its wonderful port and its geographical
location, which makes it the gateway
for the coal, iron and steel products
of Alabama and Tennessee, and be-
lieves that Pensacola has a great fu-
ture.
Mr.. Ashwonth expressed some sur
prise that Pensacola has no municipal
docks, which, he said, be felt We're
necessary to the developments Of any
port, inasmuch as public docks always
means 4 lowering of freight rates from
the railroads which enter into compe-
tition with the city terminals.
Mr.. Ashworth is a Florida booster,
believing in the future of this state
and the full development of the entire
south, and expressed his intention OF
returning to Pensacola at an early
date.

Miss Evelyn Scotney viii Be at New
High School Auditorium
on December 29th.

Recalling the late James Gibbons
Huneker, the noted musical critic. who
by way was considered the most caus-
tic musical critic in America, suggests
a criticism he gave of Miss Evelyn
Scotney, who appears at the new high
school auditorium December 29th.
When Miss Scotney first appeared
witlp Caruso at the Metropolitan Opera
House as Lucia" the following was
the comment of the noted critic that
appeared in the New York World:
Miss Seotney has a light, high So
prano, a flexible coloratura. Tt has in
certain register an infantile quality
which we recall in the singing Of
Melba and Tetrazinni, as well as pos
sessing a handsome stage appearance"
Miss Scotney's coming to Pensacola
will readily prove the musical treat of
many seasons. Miss Scotney appears

movement. Oh, how these progressives
of old have been supplanted by the
progressives of todayl la Toilette, who

and fought by the side of the Demo-
cratic members of that committee in the

maximum a large surtax; but when this
progressive element meets up at Senator
Capper's house this former leader of
progressivism is forgotten. This man
who helped to make the fight in the
committee is ostracized. The Senator
from Idaho (Mr. Borah) and the Senator
from far awey California (Mr. Johnson),
who were once known in this country as
real progressives, have been supplanted
by the Senator from Minnesota (Mr. KEEL

censes constituted the chief offense for
which forty five persons were arrested
this September. Twenty three were ap-
pretended for possession of fur bearing
animals out of season; nineteen for pos

The San Antonio people say there Is

in Mexico for there Is nothing to fight
over. The territory that bred revolutions
has been swept clear of cattle and general

cattle. hogs and sheep today, not for
breeding purposes, but for food, the
Mexican herds having been reduced to
a minimum by the predatory bands.
What worries some San Antonioians is
that they cannot see how Mexico can
continue buying.

experiments are to start within week.
His announcement followed recon-

Exact nature Of the experiments was
not disclosed, but Dr. Bruner said the
glands would be prepared in the public
school kitchens and fed to the children
who are below par in their studies. Ac-
cording to DR.. Bruner. several thousand
children will be given the treatment. The
vacant stare on the faces Of pupils will
change soon after the treatment is ad-
ministered, it was said
DR.. Bruner said experiments with
monkey glands had restored vitality in
many cases.

DEMAND FOR
BUILDING.

Construction work in the San Antonio
territory has been almost wholly resi-

dwellings, more than can be met.

have increased them except in the shops.
Flour mills ere very active, their pro-

A majority Of the manufacturing es-
Establishments in the San Antonio terri
tory are declared to be working full time.
Department store managers, as a gen-

fact that various of them had consider
