charminsly planned miscellaneous
ghower given by Mrs. I. Wolff and
Vr& Dalsv Rsenau a the home of
ilrs. Wolff, on North Barcelona street,
at which a number of the younger ma
trons were guests. The nature of the
.,-t, which had been kept a secret
came as a complete surprise to the-
honoreo and otner guests.
A real circus -with parade, side
shows, wild animals in captivity, a
,awduet ring, acrobatical perform

joyed. A placard bearing the Words.
Franklin County Circu. Be In Time,
directed the guests to the circus tent
and the tickets upon which their
names were written when purchased
vere collected just within the tent
door. Mrs- Louise Cohen, grandmoth
er of the bride-elect, sold the tickets
at the box office.
The big living room of the home
bad been converted into a tent with
a dome formed of red- which and blue
streamers, a row of varl-colored bal
loons being suspended from the ridge.
The tent was softly lighted by red,
white and blue shaded chandeliers and
Japanese lanterns. A clown balanced
on a big red balloon guarded the tent
door. ' '
The main performance began, at s
o'clock, and from a tent with the sign
This way to Side-Shows," the pro
fessional "spieler" gave directions to
the Bide-shows where "The Bearded
Lady," "The Thin Lady," "The Fat

Currents In Her Hands," etc., were
shown and in another tent fortunes
were told by an old gypsy woman.

Were peddled in baskets by venders
and a clown who was peddling a num
ber of lovely articles in a basket when
he stumbled and fell near the honoree
spilling his treasures freely gave them
all to ner. -
The evening proved a thoroughly
delightful one and Miss Kugelman ex
pressed the hope that it would not be
long before the circus would again
come to Franklin.

SESSION OF
SCHOOL BOARD
VAS BUSY 01
DECISION TO HOLD COMMENCE
MENT AT HIGH SCHOOL WAS
MADE; CUT IN HEALTH BOARD
APPROPRIATION PROTESTED.
The school board, at is regular
meeting last night, decided that the
high school commencement exercises
shall be held at the high school audi
torium; voted to wire the representa
tives of Escambia county, at Talla-
assee, asking them to vote agains
I reduction of the health board appr
prlation, and received and took u.
der advisement a petition from lead
ing, colored citizens asking cer i
changes in the physical conditio"
their schools. '
The fuU membership of the woard
was preesnt at the meeting and the
actions taken were unanimous.
The choice of the auditorium for
the commencement exercises was
taken shortly after hearing representa
tions Indicating that such was the
wish of the. majority of the graduating
class, as expressed yesterday.
The decision to petition the legisla
ture was taken after hearing a p de
tailed report from Dr. Tatom, of the
state board of health, regarding con
ditions in Escambia county, Pensacola
and elsewhere, and questioning the
doctor on a number of points.
Dr. Tatom told the board that the
statutes of Florida require the exclus
ion from school of any children af
fected with trachoma, as it is a con
tagious disease, and . if not treated
leads to blindness. He said this would
mean, on the enforcement of the law,
the exclusion of ten per cent of the
rural school children of Escambia
county and nearly six per cent of the
children of Pensacola, thus denying
them the right of education. Ha
stated that the passage of the pend
ing -legislation, ' reducing the health
tax, would positively mean the dis
continuance of child welfare work in
the state, and inability of the health
board to adequately cope with any
serious epidemic that might : break
out.
In answer to a question as to what
would be done to cope with the serious
j hookworm an dtrachoma situations in
Escambia county, the - doctor stated
that he" was taking steps to have the
federal health board cooperate with
the state board in establishing free
clinics here. He also stated that as
one means of combatting the spreaa
of the hookworm disease, he had,
during the past year conducted a cam
paign against surface toilets, with a
result of 8,000 changes.
In answer to a question from Judge
Beggs as to why the board of health
had not used all the funds available
to them the past year, the doctor re
plied tat $25,000 had been set aside
as a reserve fund to be used in case
of epidemic .
Thepetition regarding the colored
schools was presented In behalf of the
colored Parents and Teachers' Asso
elation by Dr. S.. W. Jefferson and
L. N. Williams, and suggested the fol
lowing changes:
"That the term of primary grade
1 to 5 be set at eight months; that
schools 52 and SO be consolidated, and
the vacated property sold and the
funds applied to the erection of a
large modern building on the south
west corner of the property of No.
3 school; that to the present literary
courses of school 3 a domestic science
course be added for girls and a work
shop With trades teacher for boys, both
under competent Instruction; that the
grades at school 3 be the sixth and
higher only; that city ewerage be
substituted for the present unsatisfac
tory cesspools; that all pupils of
grades 1 and S, living east of Pala
fox, be required to attend the east
school and all others the west schools
for those grades; that the schools,
especially school 3, be painted, boOi
for esthetic and for preservative rea
sons. The members then took the matter
of the division of their appropriation
under advisement.
ALABAMA GAME
WARDEN TALKS TO
LEGISLATORS
(BY HERBERT F ELK EL.)
Tallahassee, May 8. J. J. Pettljohn,
director of educational extension, de
partment of interior, bureau of edu
cation, with headquarters at Washing
ton, D. C, and John H. Wallace, Jr
head of the game department of Ala
bama, author of the Alabama game
laws and former candidate for gov
ernor of that state, addressed the legis
late tonight in Joint session, the form
er on university extension and the
latter on the preservation of game,
upon which each is said to be an au
thority. Mr. Pettlpohn explained what
! meant by university extension work,
related his experiences in various
states and urged the importance of
community co-operation under direc
tion of trained instructors. He said he
had examined the bill now before the
Florida legislature and found that It
was drawn by persons having clear
ideas of university extension. Whethe.
or not the budget was right he could
not say.
Mr. Wallace, who is a lover of birds
land animals and has devoted his life
fourth time he had been called upon to
address the Florida legislature a-d Im
press upon It the importance of game
preservation. He said it was the only
state that wouldn't stay hitched, that
this, his beloved sister state, would
pass a law one session and repeal it
the next. He made an eloquent ap
peal for the game of the state and
clearly outlined , what should be done
by this legislature in the way of new
laws on itJe subject at hand.
DEAR FOLKS
I
AM a great believer in
the principle of proving
one's statements. There 1
are some people, you know, ;
who question the value of a
$20 gold piece. Therefore, :
they seek some expert to test ?
its value. (
I have been telling" you about I
the Wilson &.Co. Certified;
Ham and Bacon and-1 have
not the slightest doubt that j
many of you have already j
made a satisfactory test of i
,v,eir excellent quality but I S
u.ought I would try an ex- j
periment the other evening, i
I bought a Wilson Certified !
Ham and had it cooked for j
dim :r. I invited several j
friei.ds to take dinner .with !
me. I did not tell them that '
they were being served with I
a Wilson Certified Ham. I !
did not ask them how tl-ty
liked it. I knew it had be n
cooked just right and I thin"-;
I know how to slice ham a
well as anybody I wailed
to hear expressions of opin
ion from my guests.
One a young lady who ,3 a
secretary to the National .
Honor Guard of the Salva
tion Army, started the tall
rolling by remarking to mv
daughter: "Why, Eleanor
where did you buy this ham?
It is the most delicious I ever
ate."
Then another guest, who is
a Y. M. C. A secretary spoke
upland said: "Isn't this ham
wonderful ? Why it melts in
your mouth, and what a de
lightful flavor it has."
And so it went, all around
the table. Everybody expressed
a very favorable opinion as to
the quality and taste of the ham.
You know a Wilson & Co. Cer
tified Ham is big enough to '
serve many people. There were
several people as guests at my
table a couple of them being
golfers, with very keen appe
tites yet there was enough ham
left to serve a couple of lunch
eons to several people.
When I told my guests finally '
that they had been served with
a Wilson & Co. Certified Ham,
they said to me: "We don't
blame you for being bo enthus
iastic about the quality -of the
foods prepared by that firm.
They certainly make good all of
your claims about them?
Then they asked me a lot - of
questions about my, experience
with the workers in the Wilson
& Co. organization, which I
answered, but they were espe
cially interested in a story I
told them about the Good Fel
lowship Clubs which have been
organized in the -Wilson & Co.
plants.
A recent experience with the
Fellowship Club members in the
New York plant gave me the
cue to tell them how wonderful
the workers are and how they
pull together, for their own bet
terment, as well as for the betterment
of the business.
The New Tork Fellowship Clob was
just getting under way. They held an
election of officers and they elected the
General Manager of the New York
plant as their President. There is no
Aristocracy of Workers in the New
York, or any other plant. Officials
and the rank and file of workers mingle
together on the same platform ot
brotherhood and sisterhood.
One of the incidents of the meeting
that impressed me was that two vice
presidents of the Wilson & Co. organi
zation came on from Chicago to at
tend and to talk to their fellow-workers.
A distance of 1000 miles separating
the New York and Chicago plants does
not Interfere In the least with the
chain of good fellowship that securely
links aU workers . In these and the
other plants Into a bond of mutual
sympathy, cooperation and understand
ing. - "
This Good Fellowship idea is the back- .
bone of the Wilson & Co. business and
makes it possible for the 6rm to pro
duce the highest and to , 1 '
dnce the highest grade of Certified
Food Products and to send them every- -where
with this reassuring slogan:
"The Wilson Label Protects Your
Table."
Sincerely, William C. Frees&JTa,
250 Fifth Ave, New York city, "
