If th? house of representatives up wds the decision of the senate re- aa'ding the cut of approximately I 0,000 in the appropriations for run- ning expe j - Florida for the coming two years, it will mean virtually the suspension of work at this institution. "Without money to pay adequate salaries to its instructors, it will lose the men who have cciH-ibuted most in making the Universuy of Florida what it i3 to day. The inevitable lowering of Stan dards resulting from this will cause students and prospective students to seek other better equipped institu tions whose faculties are paid at least subsistence salaries. All the progress and former program of building and equipping this institution will go for naucln. A few dozen students will compose the student body of what Is now a strong and growing State Uni versityan institution that ranks third in the United States in its per centage of Ph. D.'s on the faculty. When the news reached the campus Monday morning that the Florida state senate had cut the biennial ap propriation for the support of the in stitutions of higher learning in the state, the student body at once took every method possible to have the bill killed in the house of representa tives. Leaders on the campus obtained permission from the faculty to call a special meeting of the student body. The period usually devoted to drill was turned over to the students. This was the most spirited meeting that the students have had In several years. It was the idea of every man that spoke that for the legislature to take the step of reducing the ap propriation by the percent that the senate proposes, would mean tho ruination of the school for many years to come. The University of Florida at present rates third in the United States in regard to the number of Ph. D.'s on the faculty. There were no faculty members present at the meeting, but men who spoke and who had interviewed them reported that the major part of the entire faculty had pledged themselves to leave and seek new positions should this bill as clipped go through. . It was the general sentiment of the student body expressed by many speakers that should the cut be made and should the faculty do as they had stated, they- would not be alone in the move. Virtually the entire enrollment has resolved to attend school else where should the cut be put into ef fect At the close of the meeting which had resulted in the election of Llyd 2.

It contained the signature of every man who attended chapeL Several citizens from Gainesville also made the trip. They were joined by a goodly number of Florida alum ni, all having the common purpose of using influence on the solons to change the tide of sentiment infavor of larger appropriations for the school 1 of higher learning In the state and especially for the University of Flor ida, where laboratories and additions will stand empty and idle for two years unless money to equio them is forthcoming. It was the thought ex pressed by one student speaker that for the legislature to have these build ings built and then to refuse to fur nish them with necessary equipment was about as foolish a trick as hiring a man to plow a field and then refuse to give him a plow. . ' Thursday night another meeting of the students was held. . At that time Bill Bivens, who had returned from Tallahassee, reported on the progress that the delegation was making at the capital. He stated and was support ed in his statements by seevral tele grams and letters which the commit tee had returned that there . were many -men on the side of larger ap propriations, but that there were many others who were with the opposition. Several senators and representatives have sent wires to men on the campus that they were behind the students In their efforts to get more money.' At that meeting a telegram was read to the students. It . contained the names of men on the house com mittee on appropriations, and the in formation that the delegation was to meet with that committee Thursday. An appeal Is to be made to Governor Catts for a veto in the event that the reduced appropriation goes through the two houses. The board of control meets in Tal lahassee Monday. At that time the' student committee is to ask them to recommend larger appropriations to the legislature. $228,000 is the amount needed. It is not known when the delegation will return, but a letter from Har grave states in strong terms that they will be on the field to the bitter end.

Quincy citi zens feel that an old landmark Is gone since death claimed on last Sunday night the late Judge Pleasant Woodson White, In his 99th year, report of which was published. He was born May 25, 1820, In Putnam county, Ga., coming to Gadsden county with his fathers family when he "was three years old. " He often boasted that he would live to be one hundred years old and lived in the fresh air, : took regular exercise and was very careful about his diet. His birthdays have always been made charming social events by his two devoted daughters, Misses Rebecca and Minnie White, and the cake with its numerous candles in late years was an interesting sight. His splendid old home is in the heart of Quincy on a two acre lot and is so embowered among trees, rare shrub bery, flowers and clinging vines as to be one of the show places ot Quincy. Judge White rode on horseback be hind his father, Ir. White, when ho was acting as one of the commission ers selecting the site and laying off the present city of Quincy. His father had married three times and Judge White was the oldest child of the first wife. He and his brother walked from Quincy to Oxford. Ga.. not far from Atlanta, . to enter the Means Manual Training school, which later became the great Methodist school, Emory College. He was the oldest !. living graduate of this Institution at the time of his death. Judge White's powers of .endurance and his unimpaired faculties were ex ceptional. His varied career and ex periences made him a most interesting and entertaining character and all Florida feels a loss over his depar ture. ' v . What is known as the home exten sion class under the auspices of the Woman's Club is being conducted this week In the home economics depart ment of "the Quincy high school. Miss Ruby McDavid, the canning club agent of Gadsden county, is being assisted in this work by Misses Schneider, Marsh, York and Miss Agnes Ellen Harris, of Tallahassee. The best methods of cooking, can ning and Instruction as to school lunches and foods for promoting the health of children are all featured by this work and many arf attending. Paving of the streets of Quincy is being rapidly pushed and when this contract is completed QiIncy will have two miles of paved street and its red old hills will soon be a thing of the past. A most enjoyable feature of ! this week was the pipe organ recital given Tuesday night at the handsome new Methodist church, by Miss Elizabeth Martin, of DeFuniak. She was assisted by Miss Celia McFarlm, of Quincy, and quite a neat, sum was realized on the organ fund. The Presbyterian Sunday School will entertain with a. big picnic lat Lillian Springs, two miles from Quincy on Saturday. All the Sunday Schools of other denominations are invited. The State Christian Endeavor con vention meets with the Quincy Pres byterian church, June 12-15. One hun dred and fifty delegates are expected and plans are being formed to make these young delegates enjoy and profit by every minute of their stay. The affair is interdenominational and dele gates from all churches are expected. 1 Pa tells ma. to4prta. package Post Toasties -for me "titer, eats most all of 'em. ISnTUTIONS VILLGETALL THEYASKFOR (By JOHN C. TRICE) Tallahassee, May IS. The state insti tutions for higher education are to have the amounts asked for by the board of control. This . was decided upon by a joint committee of the house and senate who have had the matter under consid eration on a rehearing since the bill was passed by the senate. The agreement of the committee was carried out by the house when the senate bill came up for consideration, and it is generally under stood the senate will do the same thing when the bill is returned t that end of the capitol. J When the bill was read a second time Mr. Kite of Alachua county, a member cf the committee, introduced amendments restoring to the- bill all amounts for the University of Florida which had been stricken from it, and the house adopted them without opposition. Mr. Stokes of Bay county wanted to Increase the amount of one of these amendments to considerably more, but Mr. Harris stated that the board of con trol had told the committee they could get along with the amount asked for, and It was allowed to stand. 'Amendments ' restoring' the amounts taken from the other institutions were restored by amendments offered by Mr. Harris, chairman of the committee, and they were each adopted. The items carried for each of th in stitulons as the bill now stands are as follows: University of Florida ........... $201,600 State College for Women ? 347.500 Extension work, College . for Women . . .... 25.000 Deaf and Blind School 175,500 Colored Normal -and Industrial School I' 49,000 Expenses for the board of control Including salary of business """' ' College for Women, .secretary and traveling expenses ....... 8.0 0 Total . . . $824,500 The amount carried .by the bill when it left the senate had been trimmed by that body to $687,500. . It is stated the amount restored by the house in each case is entirely satisfactory to all parties concerned.

While the meeting was characterized by much enthusi asm, perfect order was maintained. Several of the men who walked out stated at the close of the meet ing that they had been approached during the evening by representatives of the company .and asked to return, to work in the morning.

For the first time Since' the end of the war, purchase of southern pine umber one of the most widely used building ma terials in the world, last week returned to the normal volume of peace days. This interesting fact was revealed here today with the Issuance of the Southern Pine Association's weekly trade barometer, which showed that total orders received by 166 association mills, during the week ending Friday, May 9, were 102 per cent, or two per cent above the line indicating "normal business." Production was 81 per cent and shipments 75 per cent normal. The "barometer's" order column has been steadily climbing upward for the past sixty days. It is predicted that in the face of business now in sight orders will be 150 per cent of normal within the next month. V "The lumber business has come back," said J. E. Rhodes, secretary manager of the Southern Bjine Asso ciation, in commenting the statistics, which Indicate that the demand for southern pine is much in excess of its production. "Since the signing' of the armistice, i when the government ceased taking j lumber in large quantities, the produc tion of southern pine each week was -considerably larger than the sale and shipments.. This continued to the mid dle of April, with accumulating stocks at the mills. - j Build a Home Move Shows Results, i "The extensive advertising cam- J paign which this association has con- ; ducted in connection with the general i 'Build a Home' movement of the de- jjiartment of labor, has produced re- j suits, and with the advent of spring, ; .permitting the resumption of building, ; 1 there has been a steady increase in; business since April 12. At that time the number of unfilled orders report- ! ed. by the members of this association : amounted to 18,433 cars. Last week i the same mills had unfilled orders on hand amounting to 23,524 cars. There were received 'during the week by 166 , mills, representing more than one- j half the total production of southern ' pine in the gulf states, orders for 4,963 j cars, , equivalent to more than one i hundred, million -feet. This is. 25 per. cent more than the output of the mills for the same week. ' "The orders received by these mills during the week ending April 4 aver aged 402,755 feet per mill; while the average orders last week was 631,355 feet, an increase of more than 50 per cent in business in six weeks. "In addition to the large needs for lumber in foreign countries', especially Europe, a mos conspicuous feature of the resumption of the lumber bus iness is the great need for construc tion of every sort in the United States. . "All the cities in the United States, with two or three exceptions, report an extreme shortage of housing facili ties, inchiding dwelling and apartment houses, as well as need for office build ings and business establishments. There! is universal need for more and better homes to relieve the congestion everywhere. "Th costs of manufacturing lumber remain very high and the manufactur ers generally . do not see any immed iate prospect of their reduction. There is still an acute shortage of labor at many southern lumber producing points. "With the gradual resumption Of business generally, it is certain that the capacities of the southern pine saw mills will be taxed to the utmost to furnish the building material re quired by the domestic market, In ad dition to supplying what foreign buy ers will be able to ship from our shores." v You Stop Coughing Whan You Stop Tho Tiolda Stops The Tickle Heals The Throat Cures The Cough Price 35c. , A Free Box of.
