FIRST call for chills.
Fine kodaking weather.
MFR. Newt Lassiter of Shreveport was
here on business Monday.
Miss Lottie V. Dixon of Belcher spent
several days of last week here as guest
Of Miss Belle Johnston.
A regular meeting of the r. J. Han
cock Chapter, U. D. c., will be held in
this place tomorrow afternoon.
Mr.. Robert Lyles Wyche, student in
Centenary College, Shreveport, spent
Saturday here with the home folks.
Mr.. w. M. Rushing, now OF Bayou
Current, was in this community on a
business visit the latter part of last week.
Miss Daisy Story left Sunday for Fl.
Worth, Texas, where she will spend a
month with her sister, Mrs. Mcfarland.
These are good kodaking days. Let
Mr.. Patterson of Nashville, Tenn, do
your developing and printing. See his
ad. on our second page.
ssg% Your attention is called to an adj
yertisement on our first page, the catch
line of which is: ga vendor of shoe
strings in New York City,"
Mr.. and Mrs. J. F.. Edwards left Mon
day for Cooper's Wells, Miss. They
expect to spend about two weeks at that
place when they will return home and
prepore for a more extended visit to
some other resort.
We have been asked to give space to
the following notice.: "The Rocky
Mount graveyard will be worked this
year of Wednesday, May 26th. Bring
tools and dinner with you. Those who
cannot come will please send a hand OF
money with which to hire one.'
nsga Don't forget that the Police Jury
has very literally offered to pay the
railroad fare of all Confederate veterans
living in our parish to and from the
Reunion, provided they are not able
themselves to bear the expense. Fol
rate and other information see the Cot
ton Belts ad. elsewhere on this page.
The Musical Georgettes will visit oul
town tomorrow night, when most de-
lightful entertainment is promised at the
school house. The family consists Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Georgette and little Miss
Josephine Georgette, their daughter
The program will be mainly musical
though Mr.. Georgette will give severa
laughter-provoking readings. Musica
rattles, reville tubes, Italian harp, cello
mandolin, saxophone, clarinet, violir
and occarinas are the instruments thai
will be used. This is a high-class en-.
tertainment and we'll worth the price o.
admission.
The Children's Day service at thu
Methodist Church Sunday was we'll at.
tended and surpassed the expectation
OF even those who have attended sucl
services here during the past few years
We do not know the seating capacity o
the church, but we do know that ther,
were but few vacant places. This an
nual service is indeed a commendabl
practice and one we hope to see grow il
favor from year to year. Its influenc
for good is far reaching and not soo1
forgot. The innocent prattle of dea
little ones is the tie that holds many
home together, and their sweet voice
in song and timely readings on such a
occasion as this is to many of us
sermon par excellence. AGAIN we say
The Bossier banner. [volume] (Bellevue, Bossier Parish, La.) 1859-1952, 1909-05-13

long live the practice and NAV it ever
grow in public favor.
Mr.. w. E. Ivey returned Tuesday from
business trip to Marshall, Texas.
Hon. w. j. Johnston of Emma was a
pleasant caller at the Banner Office this
morning.
We venture the assertion that an oil
well will be drought inn in Bossier
this year.
Mr.. T. P. Larkin of the Alden Bridge
community paid us an appreciated call
this afternoon.
Miss Leila White, who for some time
past has been teaching a public school
near Rayville, Richlamd Parish, is ex-
pected home Saturday.
Miss Lucille Edwards left yesterday
afternoon for Plain Dealing, where she
will spend some days at the home of her
uncle, Mr.. H. C. Wyche.
Prof. w. A. Fortson of this place has
purchased the Lassiter cottage and lots,
located across the street and immediate
north from the Banner office.
Messrs. w. E. Cornwell of Chester,
S. c., and S. w. Baxter of Memphis,
Tenn, were here last Saturday looking
after their land interests in our parish.
kkg All applicants for positions on the
faculty of Benton High School during
the coming term should make applica-
ton at once. See the official notice
elsewhere in this column.
Rev. j. A. Parker, resident Methodist
minister, has announced that he will not
be here on the fourth Sunday to fill his
regular appointment, but will preach on
the fifth Sunday instead. On the fourth
Sunday he will preach commencement
sermon in Coushatta.
Mr.. L. G. Smith of Alden Bridge for
merly Senior Warden in Cypress Lodge
has been elected Worshipful Master, and
was installed at the meeting held here
last Thursday night. Mr.. F. B. Ogder
of this place has been elected to succeed
Mr.. Smith as Senior Warden.
From the Daily Record and Chronicle
published in Denton, Texas, we learr
that Miss Myrtle Ivey of that place will
be united in marriage to Mr.. ]. Weston
Hall of Rockland, Maine, on Thursday
June Sd. A very elaborate announce.
ment party was given at the home of thu
young lady's mother, Mrs. A. Logan O.
Denton, on Wednesday evening of las
week. Miss Ivey is a sister of Mr.. A. B
Ivey and niece of Mr.. w. E. Ivey, botl
of this community.
Mr.. C. 0. Gayle, one of the leading
merchants of our town, has just moved
his stock of goods into his new store
diagonally across the street from thu
Bank of Benton. His new quarter
are both commodious and attractive ant
offer facilities for display of merchan
disc such as has never before been seel
in our town. On Tuesday evening o
next week Mr.. Gayle will give an infor
NAL opening, the purpose of which is t.
have his many customers and friend
come in and better familiarize them
selves with his stock and prices, and t.
freely mix and have good time. Their
will be something in the way of ice
drinks awaiting you and-we don't kno,
what else, but it will be there.

Ilhenny ana WaShburn OF the Civil
Service Commission, in answer to
charges that appointments and remoV-
ais in the New York customs house
were at the dictum of the trust
The statement of the commissioners
is largely argumentatve and designed
to show the care which is taken in the
preparation and rating of examination
papers ana how, by reason Of the
methods in vogue, it is practically i'm
possible for the commissions eXamin-
crs in Washington to show favoritism
in rating.
Answering in detail the charges the
commission says they have been Of the
most general character and no name
and no person has been mentioned in
connection with them who is Of the
commissions force. The information
regarding the % assistant weighers
came from the New York customs
house. Two of the assistant WeigherS
were appointed without certification by

Miss Ella Dunn:
"Our beloved leader, Mary Baker
Eddy. has requested us all to unite
with those in our church who are sup
porting the mother church directors.
To-Day I have received a copy of her
letter addressed to the trustees Of our
churches.
For % years I have gladly obeyed
her leading in every direction. 1 have
always found that by doing this l drew
nearer to God. My students know
that 1 have taught them to do like
wise, without questioning her wisdom;
therefore they do not now need any
word from me in addition to what our
beloved leader has said to guide them
at this hour They will know that it Is
right for them to unite with those who
supported the mother church directors
in the judgment rendered against me.
1 myself have been obeying that judg-
ment and I shall continue to do so. 1
shall Furthermore obey my leader by
uniting with those who felt it was right
to condemn me in their testimony. My

right of inquiry in such cases to those
in which the allegation is made with some
show of support, that the removal was
for political or religious reasons. The
statement of the commission concludes:
What the commission desires to en-
phasize to the press is that it has used
not only all of the precautions possible in
the selection of its elegihles. but it has
left in the departments unimpaired the
work of sitting such appointments when
once made, to the bottom, and exercising
the power of removal at any time that

of impairing the right of an appointing
officer to make inquiry into moral fitness,

tent that ordinary human vigilance can
exercise"
