County Superintendent A. S. Edwards
has addressed the following letter to
the principals of the city schools:
Il am advised by some physicians

doctors certificate showing they are
not suffering from diphtheria or scar
let fever.
Il am authorized by some of the
physicians to say that they will make

doubtless all physicians will assist in
this work without charge"

BATTLESHIP METAL
LOOTING CHARGED
Ordnance Experts Expected This Week
With Plans of Target Practice

Looting OF brass, copper and lead
from the old battleship Massachusetts,,
, which is awaiting to be made a target
in the bay has been under investigation
of Solicitor William Fisher for the past
several days. No warrants have been
issued from the office of the solicitor
for the arrest Of anyone implicated and
the solicitor announced that probably
no local men would be involved in the
charge
That the metals were taken from the
ship the solicitor says that he is prac-
tically certain following a careful in
vestigation. Local people. who were
at first thought to be implicated, have
convinced the officer that they are in
nocent Of any crime in connection with
the footing. Other parties, who are re-
garded as responsible for the looting,
if any was done, have left Pensacola.
More than 81 800 Of metals, thought
to have been taken from the old bat
tlewagon, had been offered to local peo-
pie at low price. This price caused
the suspicion that the metal was stolen
and the facts were turned over to the
solicitor.
In the meantime the ship is awaiting
the arrival of the board of ordnance
officers and experts to determine the
date of the target practice. The. Of
ficers are expected to arrive in Pensa-
cola probably Friday, Major Craig an
nounced yesterday. Upon their arrival
here meeting of the officers will be
held and the date for the firing will be
announced.
The expected officers will have COM
plete charge of all arrangements for
the firing and will issue the Instructions
in regard to the target practice follow
ing their meeting here. The officers
will come here from Washington and
Fortress Monroe.
Twelve inch mortars and twelve inch
rifles will probably be used in the tar
get practice and the rifles are expected
to arrive in Pensacola shortly. 0ae Of
the guns has already been received at
the local station and others are held up
north of Birmingham. The rifles are
coming from Fortress Monroe, head
quarters of the coast artillery corps.

DODSON KILLING
USE OF CALOMEL
Says Drug is Mercury and Acts
Like Dynamite on Your
Liver.

Dodson is making a hard fight
against calomel in the South. Every
druggist has noticed a great falling
off in the sale of calomel. They. all
give the same reason. Dodson's Liver
Tone is taking its place. "Calomel is
dangerous and people know it, while
Dodson's Liver Tone is perfectly safe
and gives better results" said prom
inent local druggist. Dodsons Liver
Tone is personally guaranteed by ev-
cry druggist. A large bottle costs but
a few cents and if it fails to give easy
relief in every case of liver sluggish
ness and constipation, you have only
to ask for your money back.
Dodsons Liver Tone is a pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults.
Take a spoonful at night and wake
up feeling fine; no biliousness. sick
headache, acid stomach or constipated
bowels. 1t doesn't grippe or cause in
convenience all the next day like vio-
lent calomel. Take a dose of calomel
today and tomorrow you will feel
weak, sick and nauseated. Don't lose
days work! Take Dodson's Liver
Tone instead and feel fine, full of
vigor and ambition.

URGES ADOPTION OF
AUDITORS REPORT
Mayor Asks Commissioners to Carry
Out Suggestions of Auditor to
Stop Waste

Requesting the adoption of suggestions
made by Auditor F. B. Hagerman in or
der that the large waste of city water
be stopped, Mayor Frank d. Sanders
presented a copy of the audit to the
commissioners yesterday for their con-
sideration. With the copy Of the audit
was letter advising the carrying out
Of the suggestions of the auditor.
According to the auditors figures, 6,
per cent of the water pumped from the
wells Of the city during the year wa,
wasted, or a total Of 520, 3t5,0O0 gal
Ions OF water was pumped from the
wells for which there was no account
ing. The city received pay for only
234,s53O00 gallons, according to the re-
port.
The report continued that according
TO superintendent Sweeney a large
part Of the waste could be stopped With
the expenditure OF only $1,000 The
waste last year was greater than either
of the two preceding years which ac-
croding to the report was 60 per cen
for 1919 and Sc per cent for 1913.
The rate of Pensacola water was in
creased beginning October / to bring
in about $1,000 annually more revenue,
as the department showed about that
much of a deficit during the year. Ac-
cording to the auditor if the huge
waste was stopped, under the old water
rate a nice surplus would be built Ut
every year instead of the department
finding it necessary to raise the rates.
The letter of the mayor follows:
