The Times-Union has no idea that the European war will end this year but does believe that it will be decided this year. That will help some. —_—— The Pensacola Journal recently printed an interesting article scout- ing the idea that sharks devoured human beings and insisted that ther2 was no authentic instance on ‘record to that effect. And now comes the esteemed Journal with a story in its local news columns tell- ing of a giant shark caught the oth- er day in Pensacola bay, in whose stomach was found thé ieg of a man who had left the navy yard a \ night or two before in a small boat and was never seen again. It seems to be a case of another theory gone wrong. D | —— The war in Europe has hurt us in some ways, but it is helping us in others. The fighting nations are sending over big orders for many things they need which we alone can furnish. St. Louis has taken a contract for 110,000 barrels of flour; St. Paul has an order of $3,- 000,000 for harness and leather; Pittsburgh reports 100,000 sheets 0 of pressed steel sold for $5,000,000; ( Australia, Greece and Russia have ordered steel rails; Great Britain [ has just bought 15,000 tons of ! barbed wire, Russia 10,000 tons of wire products, and France 10,000 tons of steel billets. These are just a few instances. Those tremendous armies must be fed and clothed, and with the winter just ahead they will need blankets, woolen underwear and many other things which our in million dollar lots. e (Y it GOVERNOR TRAMMELL HAS THE RIGHT mEA Den't forget Lhat Saturday, Nov. 7, has been designated by Governor Trammell's rroclamation #s a suit- - Pensacola has caught the buy-a- bale fever and her business men are buying good quantities of cotton at ten cents a pound; Jacksonville is preparing to take care of 20,000 bales at the same price; Asa Cand- ler, of Georgia, is financing a mil- lion bales in that State; Chicago has bought 15,000 bales at - the standard price, and from nearly ev- ery ‘part of the country comes the news that cotton is being marketed in this way. And all this in addi- tion to the big demand of the Amer- ican mills and quite a call from the English mills as well. There is such a thing as being worse scared than hurt. D Of course President Wilson will be renominated if he wants to be ‘and if he keeps up the record of good work he has made thus far, he will almost certainly be re-elected. The St. Petersburg Times sums him up with brevity and complete- ness in these words: “He is recognized as the leader of hig party, and he has the confidence of the people regardless of party lines. And he has the contidence of the people because it is beyond ques- tion that he has steadily aimed to do what he thought to be right and what would be for the best interests of the whole people.” O CENTRAL DISTRICT ENDEAVORERS Again has a very successful con- vention convened for Christian En- deavorers of Marion, Citrus, Sumter and Lake counties. Tavares is a place we iike to go and to which we want to return. From beginning to end this conven- tion of Oct. 16-18 was made pleas- ant for every delegate.

Right now, with a great war dis- turbing the markets of the world, there is special need for the farmers to take counsel together, for,.with our own country at peace and relied on more than ever to feed other na- tions as well as our own, the wise farmer is going to sece opvortunities in the situation and turn them to his profit. Governor Trammell’s idea is a good one, for out of all the welter of talk and clash of opinions something valuable ought to come in the way of a policy for concertea action to meet the misfortune of low prices and seize the advantages always lurking in such situations to be discovered only by the shrewd and thoughtful farmer posted on €very phase of prevailing condi- tions. grinding toil in the |tendent fields, following a simple and un-|Home, left strenuous life in Jack- varying routine from year to year, [Sonville to attend Sunday afternoon.
