THE USE OF flowers.
Mary Movie.

God might have made the earth bring
forth
Enough for great and small.
The oak tree and the cedar tree,
Without flower at all.
He might have made enough, enough
For every want OF ours,
For luxury, medicine, and toll,
And vet have made no flowers
The ore within the mountain mine
Requireth none to grow:
Nor does II need the lotus flower
To make the river flow.
The clouds might give abundant rain,
The nightly dews might fall,
And the herb that keepeth life in man
Might yet have drunk them all.
Then wherefore, wherefore were they
made
All dyed with rainbow light.
An Cushioned with supremesa grace.
Upspringings day and night,
Springing In valleys green and low,
And on the mountain high,
And IN the silent wilderness,
Where no man passes by2

Then wherefore had they BIRTH?

CITY BEAUTIFICATION

In growing from a village to a met
ropolltan business center the city Of
Tampa must not overlook the impor-
tance OF appearances. Most cities are
already wide-awake in this regard and
have ordinances which enfore neatness
and good looks on the part OF business
houses, and which furnish the public
with beautiful. parks and Fairgrounds.
One must not overlook the fact that Il
Is the appearance OF the city which
counts the most with the stranger on
his first visit. He does not yet know
the statistical data which the trade
bodies love to fling in bis direction, He
has merely his eyes to serve him, his
nose and other senses. He judges in
that way whether city is an up-to-
date thriving place, or whether It has
the sIdds under 1t.
The stranger may be wrong IN his
first impressions. but he Is honest just
the same, and very often first impress
slons are lasting. The things which
impress him most are whether the car
service to and from the union station
Is prompt and adequate; whether the
streets are neat and clean or are lit
tered with trash; whether the alleys
are clean and slightly; whether traffic
is properly regulated or whether he
must take his life IN his hand to cross
the main business street; whether the
stores ana residences are neatly paint
Cd, or whether they look like Salem
in the days Of witchcrnft; whether the
awnings over the sidewalks are prop
eriy constructed for safety and ap-
pearanee, or whether they are merely
tin sheds and leak when ii rainsI
whether there are any close-in parks

COWS running PRETTY
BAYVIEW PARK LAWNS

Evidently some IT, me stock owners
of Pensacola have forgotten that there
is city ordinance prohibiting the run
ming Of cattle about the city. Residents
Of Bayview Park are complaining OF
late of COWS running loose out in that
vicinity. They are in the habit OF
getting into the beautiful lawns and
grass plots that have recently begun
to put on their summertime prettiness
and are doing no little damage. The
parks, lowered lawns, and trees are
natural part OF Pensacola's neatness
and the owners of the animals would
be comforting a favor not only on the
residents but the city as d whole by
seeing to 1t that their cattle does not
run at large.

SOME DISCOVERIES

Because of the warm weather, during
the first two weeks of school, the girls
physical culture classes met indoors
this gave an opportunity for some pos
ture and hygiene work, which revealed
some rather startling facts.
It was found that in the sixth, sew
enth and eighth gra6es out of = total
of los girls, only l6 per cent are able
to assume good posture to maintain II
through few minutes of exercising
and marching. Exercises of a eorrec-
tive nature, designed to overcome faulty
habits of posture, are being emphasized
and the girls themselves are doing much
10 affect au Improvement.
The girls were also weighed and mea-
sured and classified according to weight
for height charts prepared by Dr. X. L.
Emerson. Here, too, the results re
vealed astonishing facts. Only 10 per
cent were found normal or over weight /;
29.7 per cent were less than 10 per
cent underweight; leaving 44.S per cent
more than 10 per cent underwelght, a
condition that should have serious
thought and attention.
The causes of uuderWeight are laci,
of home control, faulty food, health
habits, and over fatigue. An investi-
CATION IN very superficial way was
made and from the lists, the girls pre-
pared of the food they had eaten IN the
last ~ hours it was found that the
food value in the majority of eases was
about half rs much as it should be.
