Saturday"
She waited while he hid the canoe
under the trees. 1t was twilight now
A faint breeze stole over the lake
perfume laden. Up at the lodge they
were lighting the long Chinese Ian
terms around the porch. And sud
denly, without warning, Janeway's
arms closed about her.
But you will not go-not now. You
know the same as do that this is the
end Of the quest"
Swiftly, recklessly, Suzanne's palm
struck out and cuffed the famous ex-
plorer's nearest ear even while she
eyaded his lips. And then, picking up
her skirt, she ran straight for the
shelter CT the lanterns glow
I'm going tomorrow, Blanche" she
exclaimed, finding her hostess alone
there
ooh, SO soon, dear; why? Here's
letter for you, anyway. From the

Suzanne read it through once,
twice. Every word sank deep into
her conscience. 1t was from Don.

Then Suzanne raised her head and
for the first time publicly announced

hurriedly Aunt Isabel is there at

New Orleans, Nov. 28.-Unti
the return Of DIR. Oscar Bowling
State Health Board president
from the Child Welfare Confer
ence at Louisville, there will bt
mo public announcement made in
an official wayregarding tn {
findings of the bacterolOgists who
are putting the finishing touches
on their report OH conditions al
the State Normal School which i,
is isexpected will establish respon.
sibility for the illness among stu.
dents that caused a temporary
suspension of the State institu.
tion. DIR. Bowling prefers to &C
Urer the reports personally before
giving out anything of an official
nature.
Meanwhile the State Normal
School infection is said to. have
been traced to the failure of the
management to provide proper
safeguards for the health of its
charges. 1t is claimed open
vaults erected by workmen and
left uncovered formed the basis
of infection. House-flies are said
TO have been the means of trans
mission. Open windows, unpro-
tected by screening, and food ex-
posed to the infectious touch of
the disease-laden flies furnished,
it's claimed, the channel through
which the fever ,bacilli were car
ried from the nearby vaults to
the dining table. .x
An unprotected water supply
FOR The milk coYs, mattresses and
beds overrun with bed-bugs and
vermine in the sleeping rooms
and other parts of the State Nor
NAL living apartments, furnished
other conditions favorable to the
transmission of disease.
The history of the infection is
said to have been found by the
State Health experts to date back
to last July; the vault near the
open dining room windows is
what, it is said, created the origi-
nal source of disease. 1t was or
dered knocked down and closed
up as the first move when Dow
ling's forces reached the school
! grounds. subsequently, it is
charged, other vaults of like ma
ture were found in other parts Of
the grounds.
1 DR.. Seeman's report, it is said,
sill expose this condition of af-
fairs to have been indefensible.
The water supply of the city of
Natchitoehes is two miles away
on q hill in another part of the
city property, and it is said by
those who know the situation that
Dowling's bacteriologists will de-
velop no serious bacilli in the
water. It is said when the re-
ports Of the. health officers are
finally given out that the city |
water supply will be found to be |
in good CO ondition andfree
from pollutioa. The school may
reopen about December 9th.

A Beautiful Tribute by Hon.
A. [. Slack.

The following beautiful adj
dress was delivered by Hon. a.
L. Slack, Adjutant Camp 1929,
at the dedication of the Confed.
crate Monument, erected by the
Daughters of the Madison Infan-
try Chapter, at Tallulah, La, on
the 3Oth of October, 1912:
Daughters OF the Madison Infantry
Chapter, Comrades, Ladies and
! Gentiemen: q
have been selected by the
Madison Infantry Chapter, I'D.
c. to respond to the eloquent ad-
dress of my friend, in dedicating
this beautiful monument to the
Confederate soldiers, who enlis.
ted from this parish of Madison
and served in the war between
the States. Ifeel that this honor
has been granted me, not so much
for any fOrnsic ability l may po-
sess, but simply because l am
one of the survivors of that IT,
tanic struggle-one of the old
Louisiana bOys-a distinction /
would not exchange to be twenty
years younger; nor would l blot
out the memory of ''the battles,
seiges, fortunes l have passed"
for a longer lease of life tn q n
may be vouchesafed to me.
As the representative of our
Confederate soldiers l am glad
to be delegated the pleasure of
accepting this gift in the name of
the very few veterans who have
survived and remain with us, and
also in the name of those who
have passed away; and l pray, if
possible, that the spirits of the
departed may hover over us dur
ing these ceremonies with ap-
proving benedictiOns.
l would not be so ungenerous
as to refuse to accept this splen-
did testimonial of &oman's de-
votion, as exemplified in the gift
OF this splendid work of art-so
suggestive ofthe purpose forl
which it was erected-commem-
Grating as it does, the service
and devotion of the Southern
soldier to that cause he KNEW
WAS RIGHT, and for which he
was willing to die.
1t has been said that the Con. |
federate soldier in his wreck of |
gray was the grandest and most
figure of the 10th
century. However this may be.
there is one thing certain, he is
80 esteemed by the women of the /
South.
Such a magnificent gift as this
offered with all the
tender sentiment W hich goes
With 1t, is graciously accepted
coming as it does from those
noble women of this chapter.
who have labored and planned
that a memorial of the struggle
should not be lost, but should
stand as a lasting inspiration to
this and future generations, "lest
We forget!"
1t is not the intrinsic value of
q gift which makes its bestowal
always appreciated, but it is the
motive and purpose-the senti.
ment which accompanies it!
which makes it priced. Even a
trivial gift may be offered with
such heartfelt purpose. as to
make 1t more cherished than all
else besides. So
