SONS OF VETERANS.
Camp Organized Here Monday
Night With Fourteen Men,
berS,

At the close Of the meeting of
the Fire Department in the
courthouse on Monday evening
last a number of the citizens
remained for the purpose of
organizing camp of the Sons of
Confederate Veterans in Lafa-
yette. The meeting was called
to order by DR.. F. E. Girard and
Mayor G. O. Mouton was elected
temporary chairman. After
stating the purpose of the meet
ing the chairman introduced the
Hon. P. L. DeClouet who spoke
in behalf of the veterans of the
purposes and work of the
Daughters of the Confederacy
and the necessity for organiza-
ton on the part of the sons to
keep alive the memory of the
Lost Cause and it's heroes. He
pointed to the rapid passing
away of veterans and the grow
ing need of the work of the sons
and daughters.
District Commander JnO. B.
Nix was then introduced and
addressed the meeting. He
spoke eloquently of the record
of Louisiana particularly and
Southerners in general and
emphasized the fact that the
younger generation should
cherish with pride the memory
of the bravery and courage of
their fathers and the devotion
and sacrifice of their mothers.
He declared that the memory of
the Southern soldier will live
with that of LeOnidas and his
Spartans to be told to nations
yet unborn. He urged attend
ance on the reunion soon to be
held in New Orleans where they
expect to have "a hog killing.
log-rolling, quilting party old
time" He closed by compliment
ing the work of the Mouton-
Gardner Chapter here on it's
efficiency and expressed the ex-
pectation of having wide awake
camp of sons shortly.
Fourteen gentlemen signed
the application for membership
and at once proceeded to elect
a part of the officers of the
camp. Those elected were
commandant, Mayor Chas. o.
Mouton; Adjutant. F. V. Mouton;
1st Lieutenant, r. E. Voorhies;
Chaplain, RObt. McFaddin.

these things interested her intensely.
Indeed, Mr.. Keen's peculiarities were
SO absorbing to her that she did not

pair of gloves. Stepping lightly to the
chair, she stopped and barely touched
his forehead with her lips. Then, with
a glance to make sure she had not
awakened him, her little heart beating
rapidly away.
When they met again, Anita, with an
effort. brought herself to look Mr..
Keen in the face, dreading lest she
should see some evidence that he had
been conscious of the kiss But. no;
there was not the slightest sign of such
consciousness.

says Mary Stewart Cutting in Har-

Ill the end, when the leader or leaders

, were each in those days ruled by it's
sovereign, whose name was preceded
by the letter co. From these sprang
the O'Neills, the O'Gradys, the O'Con-
nells and others.
1t was during the reign Of the pro-
tector, Oliver Cromwell, that Thomas
O'Donohue, young patriot, wooed
and won Aileen Mavourneen. one of
those Irish girls celebrated for their
fair compilations, their blue eyes and
their musical voices. O'Donohue's ia
ther, q ruler, had been beheaded dur
ing the reign Of Charles l. At the
time Of his fathers death Thomas was
but seven years old. He then vowed
that when he grew to manhood he
would devote his life to driving out
the English. So revered was the name
of the father that when the son came
of age and succeeded to his great land
ed estates his people, who were griev-
ously oppressed, looked to him to do
something for them.
The nuptials between Thomas ODon-
ohue and Aileen Mavourneen had
scarcely been celebrated before the
young husband. joining forces with
neishbo-ing ruler, headed a rebellion
against the English. At first he was
successful, but owing to the treachery
of his colleague. who made peace with
the common enemy and turned against
him, O'Donohue was defeated. Flee

The holidays were soon ended, and
the two students went back to col

astonished to find an aching void in
her heart she had never felt before.
Indeed, she did not know what it was.
That 1t could be a dawning love for
the serious, methodical Keen she did
not dream. Nevertheless his manner

plunged into a slough of self condem-
nation at the receipt Of the gloves she

Miss Anita Ford was, like many very

He was sober and dignified. He had

ALGERIA GALLATIN TONIGHT

The story of Dorothy Vernon OF
MADDEN Hail. in which Miss Alberta
Gallatin and an especially strong sup
porting company will appear at the
Keylor Grand tonight is possibly the
most pleasing of any of the so-called
"book-plays" that have been intro
duced in recent years.
The first act opens with the arrival
of Sir John Manners, who is unknown
except by name, both to Dorothy and
her father, Sir George. Another
sutton Sir Malcolm Vernon, Dorothy's
cousin. is expected and Sir John,
Vernon, adroitly takes advantage OF
a mistake which has been made by
the servants, to pass himself on as
the looked-for individual. In this
guise he wins the heart OF Dorothy
and the appreciation of her father,
only to be repudiated when the real
Sir Malcolm arrives and the decep-
ton is discovered. With woman's
wilfulness, Dorothy insists that she
will have none of the suitors her
father has chosen, and clings to Sir
John through thick and thin. The
second act sees her imprisoned in
her room on a diet of bread and wat
er. prescribed in order to starve her
into submission to the paternal man.
date. Sir John gains access to the
apartment through the wiles OF his
faithful ally, the dwarf Perkin, who
is an inmate of the Vernon household.
Queen Elizabeth arrives on the
scene: and to cOmplicate matters
still further, it comes out that Sir
John has been instrumental in bring
ing Mary Queen of Scots into Eng
land, and that she is hidden at that
moment at his fathers castle near by.
Dorothy's father and his servants
find the girls lover in her apartment
and the secret of his action in bring
ing the Scottish queen to English ter
ritorly once revealed, is deemed
proof of his treason. He is strick
en- senseless by blow from a sword
hilt and in imminent danger of exc
cution, but Dorothy saves him by
betraying to Elizabeth the wherea
bouts of her hated rival. This done
she steals away and dashes off tC
Rutland castle in the guise of serv
ing maid in order to warn Mary, sc
that she may escape before the roy
al guards reach that place. She is
just in time, and exchanging dresses
with the Scottish queen, she induces
the latter to go to Haddon Hall and
| throw herself on the mercy of Eliza
beth. When the guards arrive al
Rutland castle, they find Dorothy dis
guised as the queen, but before the
| mistake is discovered the real queen
has reached Haddon Hall and sur
rendered herself.
In the fourth and final act Doro
| thy has a hard time in pacifying the
irate English monarch and persuad
ing her to believe that Sir John
Manners has not been actuated by
| reasonable motives in bringing the
! Queen of Scots to England. In an
amusing comedy scene the heroine
succeeds in making Elizabeth believe
| that Sir John is frequent admirel
of Elizabeth herself. Thus she
wrings from the Tudor sovereign 9
pardon for him, which is coupled with
decree that he shall go into exile
in Wales for year At the last mo
ment, Dorothy defeats the purposes
OF Elizabeth to separate the lovers by
clipping with Sir John, and the two
ride off together as the tina. 49,.

FIGHT ON SCHOOL DISTRICT
Many Petitions Are in Circulation at
SaWtelle Over Question of
Annexation

Special to The Herald.
SAWTEI.LE. Feb. "A petition
with about thirty signatures was cir
culated by S. II. Taft asking that Saw
tele school district be annexed to Santa
Monica. He will present 1t to the su-
pervisors this week.
A remonStrance against the petition
asking that our land here be left as
it Is now known, Sawtelle, was orig
mated and circulated by the school
children.
About 5000 names We're secured. The
Soldiers home was in favor of this
move and signed freely. This will be
presented to the supervisors today.
A prize was given for the child who
secured the most names of authentic
voters. 1t was won by about six boys
under the leadership of Clinton Park
hurst, who secured 1926 names.
A mass meeting will be held at the
school house tonight to determine the
best course to be pursued at the meet
ing of the board Of supervisors on Mon
day.
The change of boundaries would Grip
pie the usefulness of the Sawtelle
school district because 1t would deprive
the district of four square miles of
taxable area and two square miles of
mountainous taxable area, leaving to
the district only about one square mile
of taxable area and not materially
diminish the number of school census
children to be provided for.
