An educational feature, which has been
practically abonded by the local high school,
on account Of lack Of interest on the part of
the citizens Of Opelousas, is athletics.
The people of st. Landry have at last been
shown what a good athlete can accomplish for
his school, for Eunice is one Of the most pro-
g~ressiye towns in this parish, in which the peo-
pie take considerable interest and for that rea-
son the athletic feats OF Dana Jenkins, the Eu-
nice lad, have won not only for the Eunice
High School but also for the town 81 Eunice a
Southern-wfde reputation.
II the Opelousas High School would be given
the same encouragement that Professor Crit
nth has been receiving for several years past,
there is no doubt that this city wo,1ld send on
the cinder path one of the strongest school track
teams in the state. '@..
While it is true that Jenkins is an excep-
tionally good athlete and promises to be better
from time to time, it is practically certain that
some good athletes could be developed here.

ITALY FINALLY JOINS IN

Italy, which mas been watching its chances
of going on the winning side, ever since the Eu-
ropean countries were plunged into sudden
warfare, finally declared war against Austria
Hungary, its ancient enemy, on last Monday.
The italian government was in treaty bound
10 protect the interest of Germany and Aus
tria. in case of war, but when war was de-
clared between the Triple Entente and the
Triple Alliance, Italy refused to go with the
Austro-German forces, and from that time on,
until war was declared against Austria, Italy
was in the balance, as if waiting to see exactly
which side would be more certain of winning,
so that she might be one of the principal feast
ers at the pie counter, after the war.

YOUR HEALTH
Don't Endanger 1t With Calomel

1t is generally agreed by experts
IN this country and Europe that
ealomel has a very violent efecton
the system. This accounts for the
familiar d~isagreeable feeling &C
companying a dose, and the weak
ened condition following it.
Liv-Ver-Lax is a harmless vege-
table compound, that is a mild, but
effective substitute for calomel. It
has all the effectiveness, but not
the effect, of calomel. It's splendid
value has brought it into such wide
use that in some states it has al
most entirely replaced calomel.
Just try Liv-Yer-Lax once, ard
you'll never use calomel again.

THE END OF THE WAR
ulmzmuX&

All war prophets have once more been disap-
pointed as to their prediction of the probable
ending of the European strife and from all in
dications the situation is as battling as a Chinese
puzzle.
Politicians and public men of practically
every country in the world have been busy, 10
these manyamonths predicting the end of the
war. the latest prediction befhg that the Allies
would be victorious by the end OF the, summer.
It appears now that the Teutons and Aus
TRANS are better fighters, with more resources
than was at first apparent; it would not be sur
prising if the European war lasts for months,
nav even years, although the Italians have got
fen in the mix-up on the side of THE Allies.
War authorities claim that it will take the
Allies several months to drive the Germans and
Austrians in their own territory and that the
theory of starving out their enemies can no be
worked as yet.
The Germans and Austrians are still evinc-
ing a spirit of optimism, despite the fact that
they are face to face with a new and powerful
opponent, once their friend, in Italy, while
the Britons are finding it difficult to get suffi-
cient numbers Of volunteers, so much SO that
talk of conscripting is heard through England.
it is likely to go on for two or three years,
while it may end at any moment.

Unfortunately however. a Recommendation 10 Con-
when It enjoys the beated approval Of the

II will be recalled that Mr. Garrson's very ability

the last Congress and that the military committees OF
the two houses rejected practically his every recon-
mendation and passed considerable legislation which
he disapproyed
II will also be recalled that was the influence Of
the President himself which defeated the passage OF
Representative Gardners resolution creating a com
mission empowered to investigate the military cond-
tion Of the nation and which, Il hoped would point
the way 70 remedying many abuses and defects some
Of which had been Of long standing

sequent drowning OF hundreds OF being
prosecuted by Federal State and county officials.
The Federal inspectors have been under nre for per-
mitting the stGrred boat be overloaded The har-
bormaster and his assistant have asserted under oath
that in their opinion the steamboat was cranky and
that she should have been licensed TO carry more
than 200 persons Witnesses at the coroners inquest
testified that in their opinion overlooking under-bal-
lasting and the grounding Of the bow on the bottom
OF the river contributed toward bringing the de-

all those things be definitely fixed and that suitable
punishment be meted out to the offenders matter
