-WIGGLY CONCERN
OPENING MANY BRANCHES

"Piggly- Wiggly" stores, famous
throughout the world, are evidently
to become mroe than hearsay to
number of Florida people, for "Pig-
Wiggly," who are soon to open a
store in Palatka, will have homes in
more than thirty Florida cities be-
fore very long. Piggy Wiggly has
demonstrated what it can do in such
Florida towns as Jacksonville, Or
lando, Tampa and Miami, and the
bankers and business men who or
ganized the Tri-State Piggly-Wiggly
company, state that with a little CO.
operation of Florida families it will
be possible to open thier full quota
of stores very shortly.
Back in 1916 Piggy Wiggly start
ed in Memphis, Tenn, and has grown
beyond all the widest dreams of the
founder, being indeed a child of
much business to-day. With over
ten billion dollars being spent in this
country each year for groceries, it
is only reasonable that some i'm
provement in the old style way of
conducting a grocery store would be
welcome.
A new era in the grocery business
has been marked with Piggly-Wig-
gly's debut all over the nation. Just
think of two clerks serving from 500
to 1000 people a day. The way is
very simple for every purchaser be-
comes his or her own clerk, the
serve-yourself plan being followed
out strictly.
Saving three cents on a pound of
coffee does not seem worth while,
but on three pounds the housewife
has saved almost dime. And then
three cents or more on almost every
thing the purchaser needs each day
is distinctly to the buyers advantage.
H. E. Cochran is representing the
company in Palatka on preliminary
details, while the local store will be
under the management of Mr.. F. W.
Sapp, a well-known resident of this
city.

Atlantic Fleet
at Guantanamo
for Training
IBx Associated Pressl

Guantanamo, Cuba, Feb. 6.-The
Atlantic fleet steamed into Guanta-
namo bay today and anchored off the
naval base that for more than score
of yers has been the winter play
ground and training camp for Yam
kee sailormen. Here the gobs and
their officers will remain until April,
working a bit and having the play
that keeps Jack a bright and snappy
boy.
None of the sailors had put foot
on land since January 8, when their
ships went to sea for the annual
cruise in southern waters until
launches came chugging to shore to-
day. Admiral Hilary P. Jones, COM
mander of the fleet, was waiting
aboard his flagship Columbia in the
harbor when the fighting craft
plowed into the bay from the Guam
canayabo gulf, 1870 miles westward,
where since January 10 everyone
has been busy with gunnery exer-
cises, engineering trials and torpedo
firing.
The commanders aim to key up
every man to the highest pitch of eff
ficiency and fitness will be carried
out here by torpedo practice, spot
ting, turret drills and night fire re-
hearsals aboard ship, while on shore
baseball and other sports will give
the sailors plenty of recreation.
Every COB is man among men
and men only from now until April.
The station embraces so square miles
in the Guantanamo valley along the
southern coast line of Cuba not far
from the eastern tip of the island.

that at one time he took certain
visitors up onto the roof of his house
to show them view, which in all prob

sion he had made. Presently woman
and child were observed in the dis
lance, running in their direction, and
TennysOn would have it that they were
hurrying to catch a glimpse of him. 4
moment later bull was seen charging
out from behind clump of bushes,
palpably in pursuit of the two. There
upon Tennyson, true to form, declared
that the gentleman cow was also try

times were fully as silly and conceited

Had You Ever Noticed 1t?

That nature is full Of simple facts
Of scientific Importance yet awaiting
notice by open eyes and minds is
shown by the achievement of Dutch
schoolboy named Van Erpecum, who,
during lesson in physics, given in
the high school at Batavia called DR..
Van Deventer's attention to the fact
that water in glass filled to the
brim with water and floating ice does
not flow over as the ice melts. In fact,
no change Of level whatever occurs.
DR.. Van Deventer communicated
this observation to Professors Van der
Walls and Zeeman, who thought 1t Of
sufficient Importance to be placed be-
fore the Royal Academy of Amster-
dam. 1t is proposed to call the phenom-
enon the 'law of the permanent level
