Subject in which a man's religious con

fend we respect those convictions.
We must insist, however, that the
i record be kept straight. Mr. Pendleton
I charges that "The Journal says we
; need Sunday ball more than we do
libraries." The Journal said nothing
of the kind. It intimated nothing of
; the kind. It did not discuss baseball

t The Journal did not even make an
j argument against a public library. It
' simply said that it thought there were
; other things that we needed more than
we do a library at this time.
If Mr. Pendleton thinks a library
built from Mr. Carnegie's tainted mil-
lions is Pensacola's greatest need to
dflv. xv a or satisfied for him to think
and his argument has not operated, yet
at least, to change it.
What Mr. Pendleton thinks about
baseball is a matter with which we
have absolutely nothing o do. What
The Journal thinks about it we have
.already said and there is no occasion
for reiterating it now. We will do him
jmore credit than he does The Journal,
, 'however, when we Bay that we believe
; he expressed his own convictions in
the matter. Perhaps if he had read
' .The Journal as long as some of Its
readers have he would know by this
'. time that the paper usually expresses
Its own sentiments and does not have
: 'to get permission from anyone to do so.
i As to "dance hall music," we pass
the subject up. We are not sufficiently
'familiar with either the dance hall or
the music played therein to be able to
iglve an intelligent opinion on either.
IA11 we insist upon is that the record
be kept straight.

Queen Mary's Advice
CTot Young Girls.
The coronation Is creating quite a
bit of talk and Queen Mary feels called
upon to give out some advice as to the
' conduct of young girls and old ones
as well If they want to become the
best specimens of womanhood, physi
cally and mentally. She says:
Look your best, by all means, but
be your best also; the first attracts to
begin with, but the second . produces
the more lasting effect.
A healthy girlhood is the best foun
dation for a happy life. Obey the laws
f hygiene respecting fresh air, exer
cise, good food, clealiness and suitable
clothing.
You must know about cooking,
housekeeping and domestic economy.
You must learn about feeding and
, care of children: this knowledge does
rot come by Instinct, as many suppose.
Remember that home-making is the
most dignified aid important profession
Catarrh Cannot Be Cured
With LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they
.cannot reach the seat of the disease. Ca
tarrh Is a blood or constitutional disease,
and in order to cure It you must take
internal remedies. Hall's Catarrh Cure
is taken internally, and acts dlrectlv on
the blood and mucous surfaces. Hall's
Catarrh Cure is not a quack medicine. It
was prescribed by one of the best physic
ians In this country for years and Is a

in the world, and that a good daughter
makes the best -wife.
Choose the best companions -and read
the best books. Accept only the best
men as your husbands, paying as much
attention to their character as to their
personal appearance.
Can you imagine such a woman as
the queen describes? Such a one might
do all right in story books, but for hu
man beings it wouldn't do to expect
such a degree of perfection.
The English girls may take the
queen's advice and try to follow it out,
but not so the American girls. They
will Insist upon looking Just as they
please, and being Just as they please
usually they please to keep a fellow
guessing.
As to being healthy, what would a
girl do if she couldn't complain of a
headache, and the question of dieting
herself would be distasteful. Too
much exercise , would make her un
happy and suitable clothing well,
Kipling would say, that's another story.
Cooking and domestic economy needs
no discussion every American girl can
make fudge and arrange the parlor a
little better than the hired, girt. All
girls like children and their mothers
think they are good daughters.
Companions are a matter of personal
choosing and a girl knows she is choos
ing the best man in the world for a
few weeks, at least.
No, the queen's standard wouldn't
suit the American girl. She's Just dif
ferent from the across-the-water girls,
and we would have them thus.
Comer and Hobson will continue in
Alabama politics. Comer wants to be
governor again and Hobson wants to
go to the senate. While it's not any
of our business we venture the predic
tion that Sir Richmond will have to
shuck more than his coat to take the
place of either Johnston or Bankhead.
There are at least two species of
"peaches" on the streets these days.
Columbus (Ga.) Ledger. Our society
editor did not say anything about any
of the Pensacola peaches going to Columbus.
This hot one is from the Tampa Tri
bune: Our Albert sat, with pen in
hand, on the gubernatorial seat-o, and
said, with a smile, "Now. isn't it grand,
to veto and veto and veto."
Albert Williamson Is authority for
the Information that Nellie Gray will
be Cromwell Gibbons's secretary when
he becomes governor. And Cromwell
spoke of fig blossoms, too.
Tampa is to have a hosiery factory.
It will have to be worn by Pensacola
women to show off to the best advan
tage the stockings, we mean, not the
factory.
There are a few people who are too
contemptibly mean and trifling to keep
their premises clean, and thus they
practically kill the efforts of the thou
sands who are working to free the city
from flies and mosquitoes.
The Chaleston News and Cqurier
tells Its readers how to live. The part
that puzzles us is, why anybody wants
to live if he must stay in Charleston.
The house will refuse to adoDt the
Bristow amendment, which bears out
our statement, that the house is the
nest viie we ever rented.
An Ohio woman with a dozen and
three children wants a husband. Re

There may be a few that will vote
against the bond issue but they are
not in favor of reduced taxes or pub
lic improvements.
If Montgomery has any more blondes
like the ones that came down to spend
last Sunday, we extend the invitation
to come often.

A REGAL HEAD
How often do we see or hear this
expression used in describing a beau
tiful woman!
Denude that head of Its hair and in
stead of a queenly, royal bearing we
have a fright. The hair makes all the
difference. To have that glorious
abundance of radiant hair which al
ways crowns "a regal head," one
should use Newbro's herpicide.
Herplcide represents the last word
in scientific hair culture. It destroys
the dandruff germ, checks falling hair
and corrects generally, diseases of the
scalp.
The positive results and its deli
cate but refreshing odor recommends
Newbro's Herpicide to ladles of re

PROF. ALLEN ASKS
THE EDITOR A QUESTION.
Brent, Fla., June 19, 1911.
Editor Pensacola Journal,
Dear Sir: Would you say "an uni
que question," or, "a unique question?"
Please answer giving rule.
Yours truly,
I. E. ALLEN.
We would say "a unique question,"
although we have forgotten the defi
nite rule governing such use of the
article. As we recall it. the indefinite
article, "an," is used before words
whose first syllables have a vowel
sound, while "a" is used before words
whose first syllables have the conso
nant 'sound. In this particular case,
the first syllable of "unique" has the
consonant of "yew" and we would
therefore use the article "a" before
it. We may, however, be wrong and,
if so, shall be glad to stand corrected.

Please state through your columns
that the Fourth of July celebration at

PRESERVE THE
BATTLESHIP MAINE.
Montgomery Advertiser.
The Pensacola Journal wants the re
mains of the battleship Maine towed
there and preserved in Pensacola
harbor. It would not have the relics
of the ship sold to souvenir manufac
turers. It says: "The ship has a
rlace In the hearts of Americans. It
should not be given to the waters of
the deep. It should be preserved as
one of the relics of the nation." The
Journal makes another point:
"No monument that can be erected
would be as fitting or would keep so
green in the memory of American
people the sacrifice of 120 men's lives
as the preservation of the real bat
tleship. It should be brought to an
American port where it could be vis
ited by patriotic subjects of Uncle
Sam and tourists from other coun
tries." Our contemporary's suggestion that
the old hulk should be preserved is a
happy oue, and we should be glad to
see it towed to Pensacola as a per
manent exhibition.

SUNDAY BASE
BALLSCQRED BY
1. PENDLETOI
PASTOR OF THE FIRST BAPTIST
CHURCH GOES AFTER LEGISLA
TURE, CITY COUNCIL, NEWSPA
PERS, AND SUNDAY BASEBALL
ADVOCATES WARM SERMON
SUNDAY MORNING.
Rev. Eugene R. Pendleton, pastor of
the First Baptist church, went after
the state legislature, the city council,
the newspapers, (The Journal particu
larly.) and the Sunday baseball people
in his morning discourse Sunday. Mr.
Pendleton said:
Should Sunday be a Holy Day or a
Holiday?
Text: "And the next Sabbath al
most the whole city was gathered to
gether to hear the word of God."
(Acts 13:44).
The recent line-up on Sunday base
ball and the library question has been
a surprise to many of us and shows us
whither our Florida coast city is tend
ing, and what we may expect from the
city fathers and the mentors of Pen
sacola. Florida has been considered
hard for preachers and reformers, and
Just such a course as this last act sig
nifies will keep away and drive away
people who are not willing to rear
families In an atmosphere of irreliglon.
It will also have the tendency to shut
our gates against that desirable ele
ment of people who read books and
thrive thereby, and who desire vto
breathe a purer air than the political
atmosphere of the last Florida legisla
ture, and who look somewhat higher
than the Pensacola city council and
the state senate for mental and
spiritual guidance.
One of the greatest surprises con
nected with the recent denouement in
city affairs was the morning Journal's
attitude. My high opinion of the chief
editor, and my deep sense of apprecia
tion of his numerous courtesies to a
new pastor, makes it somewhat painful
for me to differ with him, but convic
tion requires plain speech. That paper
made, in my opinion, what is consid
ered In congress worse than a crime,
namely, a blunder, a double blunder.
I cannot believe, that Editor Mayes was
expressing the best in him when he
chimed In with Sunday baseball and
broke with the library at the same
time. That argument In a recent edi
torial opposing a library did not sound
like him. It read as if Mayes had been
under certain Pensacola influences so
long that he was tired of resisting and
had meekly surrendered his best con
victions and ideals. Surely when The
Journal says we need Sunday ball and
concerts more than we do libraries It
is catering to that element in Pensa
cola which needs no coaching. If there
is a city anywhere more bent upon
pleasure and skilled in finding it than
Pensacola is already we have not re
cently heard of it.
And then, good Dr. Anderson, be
neath the stern exterior of a man of
few words, has such tender qualms in
his heart for the crippled and maimed
as to rise up in indignation against a
library whilst the suffering .were in
need of a hospital, naturally moved
upon the sympathetic Christian hearts
of many who voted that way, not stop
ping to think that this Issue was not
drawn. The hospital was not involved
in it except in Dr. Anderson's article.
This famous "Juggernaut" argument of
the doctor's sounded quite "villagy."
We have heard something like it in
towns of two or three thousand, "now,
we can have waterworks or lights, but
not both: which will you choose?"
This was the Pensacola of Dr. An
derson's youth speaking, and not the
Pensacola of the real estate men's
dreams of today and tomorrow.
With all this stir, the city council,
obedient servants of the people, sweet
souls who want to do what they are
sent up to do, vote in baseball and let
the library proposition go over until a
more convenient season, blissfully
happy In the thought that they are
doing something good and making a
happy populace, and because a few
gallery gods are present to hurrah,
they perhaps imagine that they are
heroes who have emancipated the peo
ple from a long "string of Sundays" on
which they must go to church, sit up
and look pious. The fly on the chariot
wheel says, "Behold what a dust I
create"!
I suppose that these honorable gen
tlemen who were In such haste as not
to give the people any chance to ex
press themselves will admit a few facts
and a little bit of logic
For one thing the whole action of
the charter which allowed Sunday
baseball was engineered through In
some peculiar way. some sleight of
hand known only to legislators, and
without giving the representatives of
Florida a chance to discuss it. Per
haps few of them knew that Sunday
baseball was In it. The promoters of
that scheme feel no doubt that they
made a big stroke for their constitu
ency, whereas in fact they struck a
blow at their state and injected a
question which will be a snare and
trouble for years to come. It is not
the sentiment of the state, and it is
even contrary to the law of the state.
This is a most unstatesmanlike blun
der. It always produces trouble.
Then when the charter comes to
Pensacola, the city council, before they
have been installed good and know how
to fit themselves to the new seats, rail
road through the baseball measure
without giving any consideration to
the citizens of the town. Because a
few hot-headed and inconsiderate boys
and some men who have no spiritual
tastes and who do not discern well the

Many people dread physic. They

sentiment of the American people, want
Sunday baseball they Jump to the con
clusion that it is the will of an entire
populace. There are some unpleasant
consequences to hasty action some
times. There was a petition being got
ten up asking these honorable gentle
men, elected by the people, to conde
scend, before they placed a stigma
upon the city, to give the people time
to express themselves on Sunday base
ball. This was unheeded until too late.
Another thing, supposing that there
should be a majority who sanction
Sunday baseball (which is by no means
believed to be the case), still the mi
nority is not always wrong and cannot
be wilfully ignored.
The council, editor, pulpit or any
other public servant who complacently
thinks he need not reckon with the mi
nority is nigh unto wearing his politi
cal and social grave clothes. The mi
nority is often right, and on Just such
a question as this has nearly always
been right. What the people want is
not what by any means they need.
The child wants cake and candy diet,
but this Is not what It needs. The
moral and Intellectual preceptors of
any people must sometimes take the
whims of the populace as those of chil
dren, not always to be humored. I
have been used to hear satire on the
Georgia legislature all my lifh, but the
last Florida legislature acted like a lot
of ward politicians. It aroused my
sympathy for the people of the state.
Still another thing. The Sunday
baseball is favoring a class who are
interested and at the expense of the
welfare of a whole city. The park and
street car company will profit by it,
whilst those who are Injured and can
not help themselves feel they are scan
dalized and the whole value of living
in the city Is depreciated for them and
their class.
What Is Pensacola's greatest need?
You ask one he would say. "Sunday
baseball." This Is substantially what
the city council and the newspapers
6ay. This proceeds upon the Idea that
Sunday Is the only day off for many
and this Is the way they choose to
spend It.
I am In agreement with all who
claim It is a clean recreation and an
unobjectionable game. I am rather
proud of having a league in the First
Baptist Sunday school. In Washing
ton city it was quite an inspiration one
summer I supplied there to teach a
baseball league in Sunday school and
se them play on Roosevelt's lawn dur
ing the week. Every church had a
league. I also heartily agree that
tired housekeepers, clerks, and business
men need a holiday. But the question
is. Should it be on the Christian's Sun
day? It is a fine and beautiful custom in
many places to give half holidays on
Saturday. Large metropolises do this.
Does Pensacola transact so much more
business than these big cities, than
Canada, than all England, that lF"can
not find any time except on this sacred
day for baseball? In Pensacola there

Pensacola has not even the same
show of reason that some towns might
have. Here we are not shut up, but
have plenty of natural resources all
around, and I think the people know
how to avail themselves.
There Is no law to compel people to
go to church, and they can go on the
water, according to their taste. But
when a game of ball Is on for Sunday,
how much will the Idea of worship,
cither evening or morning, mix in tho
breasts of those who attend, with the
game which exhausts and renders all
other activities impossible?
I am not constructing by any means
a mere theological argument when I
say that Sunday baseball Is a atop In
the direction of animallzlng the day
and the people who attend. Tensa
cola needs no help along this line.
Theatres and open stands and excur
sions and dancing would peem to be
nearly enough to ask the Christian
people to swallow.
You ask another what Is Pensacola's
greatest need and he might say, "Sun
day concerts." Music Is divine. That
is. some music. It is all right to have
uplifting music in the parks. Wash
ington is greatly helped by such. But
they cost the government thousands of
dollars a year. In a small place ther
would be rlpk of puhlic music being a
burlesque. Music requires artists. Art-
ists would not come here for their "
health. Ten thousand a year would w
n-t furnish any too much fine music. 1
The bands of the capital city are very
careful in their selections and could
not afford to offend Christian feeling
and good taste on this day. Who
would look after this in Pensacola?
The baseball enthusiasts or the city
council ?
Ask others and you would be told
that the greatest need la a public li
brary. I do not think this. All the
reading people here would be a small
per cent. I suppose it is tedious to
many to even think of the word "li
brary." It is not surprising that pre
cinct fifteen should turn down a library
proposition and that a faw others,
dreading taxation, or too old to read.
