Louisville Courier-Journal: If Germany
could win the world would not be fit to live
in. 1t is just as easy to forsee that the
triumph of Germany would remand creation
into an armed camp, the century before US
a human slaughter house, civilization a
melting pot of new and strange religions.
God may mean to punish, but not to de-
stroy US. The Hohenzollern must be hurled
from his perch-the Hapsburg driven from
his lair-before the peace and freedom of
Europe are safe against the Devil of Kultur
and the Gospel of Frightfulness.

Its Too Important---Don't Wait Until After
Christmas.

Its Too important---Don't Wait Until After
Christmas.
Our students are with US from many
different States and they do not go home
for the holidays, owing to the great dis
lance, therefore, we have no vacation, and
new students may enroll any day and do
splendid work, right through the holidays.
The advantage of enrolling now instead of
January 1st, the sooner you enter the
sooner you will be through and holding a
good position. Second, you get the advan-
tage Of selecting better boarding place
before the big January crowd gets in. Our
school is like big bank or mercantile es-
tablishment-it runs throughout the year.
We are always we'll organized and ready
for new business, rendering the same serv-
ice at all times. Practically every student
gets individual instruction. He is not held
back by slow students, or crowded too fast
by bright ones. He goes just as fast as his
ability will permit. Should he happen to
be slow or backward in his work, he is not
embarrassed by others knowing how he is
getting along, for under this individual
method of instruction they have no way Of
finding out. With our methods of individ-
ual instruction, and our copyrighted sys-
tens, we are demonstrating to young peo-
pie that it is useless to attend commercial
school teaching other systems and requir-
ing from seven to ten NOR his to finish the
course, if they ever finish, when they can
finish with US in half the time at half the
cost and be more efficient, get better SAL
aried position and more rapid promotion
because Of their thorough and extensive
training. 1t is our practical methods, our
personal attention and our modern systems
that enable US to accomplish so much in so
short time. ln short, we know exactly
what the business Office demands, and we
teach that and teach it accurately and
| thoroughly.
! Our literary subjects, which are given
free with our courses, are woven into the
main course in such practical way that
they are mastered in half the time required
by the old methods, and are thoroughly
understood from practical application. We
guarantee better course in less time, at a
less expense and a better job with better
salary than any other school, and it is evil
dent that We have been securing these re-
suits or we could not in the past few years
have built up school with an annual en-
rollment of more than 1000, and have drawn
patronage from thirty nine States and
several foreign countries.
Our January enrolment promises to be
the largest in the history of the school,

A Statement

TO the Citizens Of Bossisr Parish:
| take this method of telling you what |
will do by you if | am elected Sheriff.
LIST. | will be strictly impartial-at all
times fair by all, friend Or foe.
I'd. | will dispatch with promptness all
clerical duties of the office and in such manner
as will meet the approval of every fair and
reasonable man.
Sd. | will arrest every man against whom
warrant is issued or chase him to unknown
parts.
18th. If l am elected I am going to give
to the public schools of Bossier Parish $1,000
each year, as long as | am Sheriff and en-
ployed on the same basis as is the present
Sheriff.
l think this last is legitimate proposal,
as it has ever been one of my greatest pleas
ures to help young men and young ladies to
succeed in life. Furthermore, / feel that this
would be spending money to elevate our chill
dren to higher plane of morals, and possibly
be the means of reducing crime throughout
our country. Now, | trust no one will place
a wrong construction on this offer, for there
are quite a number of boys and girls and men
in this parish who know | have done all |
could along these lines during past years.
Now, | have told you what | would do,
and if | get chance | will show you. So
want to ask you to g i've me the chance by
voting for me on the 18th Of January, 1916,
and | will do as | have promised.
Thanking you in advance for your kind
consideration, | am, Respectfully,
j. F. ADAIR.
