St. Landry clarion. (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, 1914-07-25


The society examined my prem.
ises and the visitors did the same
and pronounced it an admirable
place for that purpose.
1t was the intention of the
visiting doctors to make Opel
ousas a resort for convalescents,
as well as to have a sanitarium.
Several meetings were fixed at
different times, and pending the
investigation, the semi-annual
meeting of the Parish Medical
Society was to take place July
8th.
The secretary Of the society,
DR.. Holloman, knew nothing
about the contemplated meeting.
| took up the matter with the
president of the society, so that
all would be sure to receive
due notice. A meeting had been
called for June oath, and the SUBJ
joined was dictated on the 22nd
of June, as it would have been
impossible to get the committee
together on two days notice.
Opelousas, La. June 22, 1914.
DR.. j. N. Brown, President,
Medical Society of St. Landry,
Washington, La.
My Dear Doctor: I have
concluded to take the sanitarium
matter up with you and get you
and your secretary, Dr.. S. G..
Holloman, to take this up direct
ly with your society, and then
there can be no mistakes.
| can see no good in calling the
Sanitarium Committee, Of which
DR.. R.. M. Littell is chairman, so
far as I'm concerned, on the 24th
of this month.
Your society meets on Wednes-
day, July 9th, and you will please
ask DR.. Holloman to notify the
society that the surgeons of New
Orleans will be present on that
day to discuss Mhe sanitarium
proposition.
Of course, I have no objection
nor could have any, to DIR. Littell
calling his committee together,
but those parties will not be
present until your society meets
on the 9th of July.
Enclosed find proposition made
by me which can be read and
discussed when your society
meets. Some minor details will
have to be gone into which don't
effect the propositions | make.
Please wire me, at my expense
at Baton Rouge, in care of the
new Mayer Hotel, of your inten-
lions.
With best wishes | am,
Sincerely yours,
1t was far better to meet the
whole society on July 9Th. The
New Orleans doctors had been
notified to meet July 9Th, by the
secretary of the Parish Society,
DR.. Holloman, but DR.. R. NJ.
Littell notified them that owing
to the scarcity of finances and
the gloomy outlook of the crops
of this section that we had aban-
doned the idea Of erecting a sani-
tarium at present"

A word picture of stirring scenes
in Germany at war-Germany battling
for its very life against almost over

( tour of Germany, where he gained
( first hand information concerning the

was the singing Of German patriotic
songs by a chorus of children who
made the church ring with their
voices. They sang Germany. Ger

on the lips Of the Kaiser's hosts in

Germany is a vast armed camp, with

Fatherland never will be conquered
because the people are united. Caste
has disappeared. and men Of all class
es are standing together ready to give
their life blood for the Kaiser and the
nation. The people are meeting the
/ situation with matchless energy. No
sacrifice is too great for them to make
and Il is this spirit which means vic

DR.. Won Bosse said Germany did
not want the war, and commenced
hostilities only in defense Of her
rights. He spoke with pride of the
feats Of German arms, and then turn
ed to the oft raised question OF al
legged cruelty to prisoners.
He denied that Germany maltreats

into its hands, declaring that such

TODAY 5 MOVES
IN THE WAR Zone,
WHAT They MEAN
BY J. w. r. MASON.
Former European Manager OF the
United Press

NEW YORK. Nov. 24.-Q1 a. M
General Won Hindenberg has halted
his perilous drive on Warsaw to pro-
tect his nanks. This is presumably
the reason for Petrograds optimistic
announcement that the Germans have
been driven to the northwest and
southwest of Lowicz. Any other in
depreciation would mean a great bat
tie had been fought in the vicinity Of
Lowicz and the Germans not only had
been defeated but their lines had
been pierced and their northern and
southern armies divided. News as
important as this would not be kept
secret from the world by the Slavs.
In reality there has been no deci-
sive battle yet fought, but Russian
reinfOrcements are coming up, as
Berlin admits. Won Hindenberg con-
sequently is taking precautions
against a repetition of the chief cause
which led to the retreat of the Ger
mans during their first attempt tc
/ capture Warsaw. That check to Won
Hindenberg's plans was due to the
1 failure of the German army in East
Prussia to prevent the development
of a Russian threat against Won Hin

On the present occasion, Won Linden

much more secure than he did during tn
former rush through Poland. The move

have created lively satisfaction in Pet
rograd, are less suggestive of retres
