WHEN WE DIE.

What happens to us when we die
What does 1t feel like to pass out of
this earthly life and enter the unknown
beyond?
An interesting answer comes from 4
group Of Psychologists. Their observa-
tions are that, in the dying hour. the
sense of smell is first to fail. Then. in
order, the dying person loses taste,
sight touch, hearing.
Thus the five senses pass. outwardly,
death seems to have taken place.
But how about the sixth sense-con-
lsciousness2 Many medical men believe
that the brain is conscious. sometimes.
as much as 20 minutes after the five
senses are gone.
Everyone has heard Of persons who
had visions Of angels. music and a
flood Of bright light, in the moment Of
passing from the material world.
Why fear death2 Life is only d Jour
ney, death only a change. The an
clients contemplated death without fear
and met it with indifference.
They accepted it as inevitable, hence
never raised affairs to It as they did to
things that might change -misfortune,
fever, volcanic eruptions or the god OF
rain.
They realized that there was no use
in appealing to death, the Great Ad-
venture.
An exceptional story is told by Rev.
G. Maurice Elliot, English clergyman.
His wife was Ill. Doctors agreed that
an operation was necessary, though it
might not save her
Says Rev Elliott: Tn our distress.
we both prayed to God that he would
send an angel to guide us. Our prayer
was answered. One night an angel
came and told us that my wife could
be cured without an operation. we
We're overjoyed and made an appoint
ment with the angel at the Brighton
railway station, where he promised to
lead us to a doctor that could heip.1
Elliott's story is that he and his wife
travelled to Brighton. found tbs angel
awaiting them. and were directed to
hotel where they met an eminent physi-
clan from London, who said that no
operation was necessary. AIRS. Elliott
has completely recovered her health.
This is a remarkable story. It en-
phasizes that many men and women of
an abiding faith. and with a definite
idea Of the hereafter. stin live this in

A DAILY MESSAGE
BY DR.. WILLIAM {. BARTON
FIRE COMPANIES: PoLITlcs.

ran across this interesting item a
few days ago in the reading of the
letters of Pliny, governor Of Bithinia,
| to Trajan, emperor of Rome. Pliny
wrote to the emperor that there had
| been a disastrous fire in his capital
city of Nicomedia and advised the pur-
chase of a fire engine and the organi-
cation of a volunteer fire company.
whose membership was to be limited
to $50 men,
I should like greatly to know what
sort of fire engine he proposed to BUY!
Many years ago / lived in town
where they had an old nd-engine.
When there was a fire the town mar
shall compelled any men whom he called
to that duty to labor at the brakes, .
as they called the long sweeps at the
side of the engine.
That was primitive enough, and /
have worked at the brakes Of such an
engine; but Pliny's engine must have
been a pump of very primitive fashion
They were always having fires In
Rome Houses were Of brick, but
there was much combustibIe material
In their construction 1t was NOT so
in Bible lands There houses were
DulAL u l0@Se stones uefQ IOBeInef with
mud cement. There was not much to
burn There is nothing in the Bible
about houses on fire. But they had
many fires in Rome.
What do you think Trajan replied to
Pliny?
He told him to buy the fire engine,
but not to organize the fire company
He said that a company of that sort
would be sure to get into politics and
to make troubled
That shows. of course. how fearful
the Roman emperors were of even
small gatherings of the people in the
day Of Rome's imperial greatness.
But it also illustrates that men or
ganized to put out fires which occur
with great irregularity. or for any
other purpose which leaves them with
time to think and talk must think and
talk about something; and Trajan was
sure that they would talk politicsl
Rome was very modern old town
in the first and second Christian
centuries.

REPLY TO MR.. BINGHAM
Editor Pensacola Journal:
BY 3. J. CUTTINGS

Editor Pensacola Journal:
Replying to Mr. Bingham's commu-
nication of recent date in Pensacola
Journal in which he absolves Wall
street, the chamber Of commerce and
the world at large from having any
thing to do with the resolution passed
by the chamber of commerce. It looks
to me if Mr.. Bingham is posing as a
martyr in accepting all responsibility
and claiming to be sole author and
originator Of said resolution 1T APP
pears to me Mr.. Bingham is a bit sell
fish in claiming all the glory. Why
not share it with the rest, or at least,
few of your fellow members that
with you are striving SO hard for the
upbuilding of a great big Pensacola?
No doubt Wall street will be greatly
relieved when they find they are not
held in any way responsible by Mr..
Bingham for having anything to do
with the framing of this resolution.
Since Mr. Bingham has stated that
he is sole owner of this resolution, he
should receive all credit. and on the
other hand. shoulder all blame, if any.
i have considered him one of my closest
friends for thirty years or more. and I
can't help but believe he has either
been misinformed or has neglected to-
get the facts, If he made the statement
attributed to him by persons present
at this meeting about the princely sal
aries drawn by engineers. The general
public does not understand the work
ing conditions of railroad employees,
especially in the transportation depart
ment. They imagine that after a man
is on duty eight hours, overtime starts.
This is true only in yard service or
runs of 100 miles or less. Your over
time is based on IL IL miles per hour,
which IS s hours per hundred miles.
